The Divine King's Mansion, Guest Hall,
When they arrived, the atmosphere was filled with a sense of anticipation. The guests who had been waiting in the Guest Hall stood up respectfully upon their entrance, their faces displaying admiration and curiosity.
"Welcome back, Your Excellencies!" a voice echoed through the hall, filled with warmth and respect.
The supreme divine king nodded slightly, his expression calm yet commanding. "We have returned, and it is time to discuss the matters that await us."
As they settled down, the air thickened with an unspoken tension. Each of the seven could sense the weight of their responsibilities pressing upon them. They were not just returning as individuals but as representatives of their respective realms, each holding crucial information and insights gathered during their travels.
Yuwen Divine King broke the silence, "We have gathered intelligence on the movement of the ninth-rank saint emperor beasts. They pose a significant threat to our realms if left unchecked."
Jiang Long Divine King added, "The reports indicate that a large number of these beasts are amassing in the northern territories. We must strategize our next steps carefully."
Titan Divine King, with his booming voice, interjected, "We have the strength to confront them directly, but we need to coordinate with the other divine kings to form a united front."
Zhan Peng, ever the tactician, leaned forward, "I suggest we send out scouts to gather more precise information on their numbers and capabilities. Knowledge is our greatest weapon."
The discussion continued, with each divine king contributing their thoughts, strategies, and insights. They understood the gravity of the situation they were facing and the necessity of a united response to overcome the challenges ahead.
As the meeting progressed, a sense of camaraderie and determination began to settle among them. They were not just allies; they were a formidable force, prepared to protect their realms from any impending doom.
The supreme divine king raised his cup and smiled at the six others, “Calculating the time, that little brat Jing Yun should be approaching the God-Eating Abyss soon.”
“This trip to the God-Eating Abyss is bound to be the grave for that little Jing Yun!”
“Come! Let’s toast to celebrate the impending death of that little Jing Yun!”
Upon hearing this, the six laughed heartily and downed their strong liquor.
In the hearts of the seven, Tan Yun’s death was certain this time!
……
At the same time, in the Primordial Divine Realm, in the western region, there was a vast and boundless ocean: the Primordial Divine Sea.
Above the divine sea, the essence of heaven and earth was dense like fog.
Snow Shadow Celestial Master piloted the Divine Vessel, carrying Mu Zhen Celestial Master, Tan Yun, Gong Zhi Xiong, and others, soaring into the sky above the Primordial Divine Sea, weaving through the rich essence of heaven and earth.
“Tan Yun, we’ve been flying for so long, I wonder when we’ll arrive,” Li Shiyin pouted, murmuring.
Just as Tan Yun was about to speak, Snow Shadow Celestial Master explained, “The God-Eating Abyss is located deep within the Primordial Divine Sea, and we should arrive in about seven days.”
……
Seven days later.
Snow Shadow Celestial Master halted the Divine Vessel above the Primordial Divine Sea.
Tan Yun and the others stood at the edge of the Divine Vessel, looking down and witnessing a shocking scene.
In the azure sea, a whirlpool with a diameter of ninety-eight thousand miles came into view.
Within the whirlpool, monstrous waves surged, and it was unfathomably deep. From above, the gigantic whirlpool resembled an eye of the heavens, as if it were opening from within the Primordial Divine Sea.
This terrifying giant whirlpool was the entrance to the God-Eating Abyss.
Snow Shadow Celestial Master turned to look at everyone and said, “As per our agreement, the geniuses from the saint king realm within the chaos divine realm will arrive in three days.”
