The passage guarded by the spirit was already known to Wen Yu. Although the celestial god felt that Wen Yu would not have any thoughts about this passage, some things must be guarded against. This time, the celestial god chose the passage deep in the ocean.
After sneaking and hiding along the way, the celestial god successfully delved into the Mariana Trench, entering underground through this passage. In less than a moment, the celestial god had already arrived at the earth's core origin.
The scene remained familiar, the people and objects unchanged, but this time, the celestial god lacked the usual sense of ease and fulfillment.
"Master."
The celestial god bowed his head and saluted the earth's will, who simply responded with a sound, then asked, "The plan should have been implemented by now, right?"
Aside from that, the earth's will could not imagine any other reason for the celestial god to seek him out.
The celestial god let out a long sigh and took a moment before informing the earth's will of the changes that had occurred in the past few days.
This matter could not be hidden; in fact, the celestial god had prepared himself for a scolding from the earth's will. However, the reaction of the earth's will was beyond the celestial god's expectations.
"In other words, the plan has been exposed, and there is no room for continuation. Is that correct?"
The celestial god nodded in agreement with the earth's will's judgment.
"I knew you were useless..."
The increasingly loud curse was abruptly cut off midway, as the earth's will suddenly changed his tone.
"It's okay... let me think for a moment..."
The conversation that seemed to indicate a split personality came out of the earth's will's mouth. The celestial god was momentarily taken aback; he did not think deeply and simply stood there waiting for the earth's will to decide.
"I have another method."
After a while, the earth's will finally spoke.
"The biggest problem isn’t with those practitioners. Aside from you, I've never believed in any humans; the mutated beasts are our foundation."
After listening to the possible consequences narrated by the celestial god, the earth's will went on to explain.
"So, we can disregard those super gathering places affiliated with you. As long as we have control over the mutated beast swarm, our power will not suffer too much loss."
Upon hearing this, the celestial god nodded in agreement, but the food issue could not be ignored. Once the mutated beast swarm ran out of food, it would inevitably reorganize the food chain. Although nominally they were still under the celestial god, the internal strife involved would absolutely cost the celestial god's faction dearly.
With the earth's will pressing down, the mutated beasts would not have too many complaints, but just this loss of power was enough to nullify more than half of the celestial god's efforts over the years.
Moreover, another issue was also involved...
"I don't know if Lin Haifeng and Wen Yu considered the consequences of internal predation among mutated creatures... This means that the speed of breaking through the level restraint will become faster."
"They should have considered it, but this time, it seems I have pushed Wen Yu and Lin Haifeng to the brink."
The celestial god smiled bitterly upon hearing this. From Wen Yu's actions this time, it seemed that this kid was truly not considering the overall situation and was trying to give himself a heavy blow...
"So the question comes back... do you consider the bigger picture?"
The voice of the earth's will was erratic, carrying a strange tone. The celestial god was taken aback. He pondered for a long time and then suddenly broke into a cold sweat.
He had already guessed what method the earth's will was contemplating...
In an instant, both the celestial god and the earth's will were at a loss for words. The earth's will was waiting, waiting for the celestial god's feedback, and from that, a question would arise...
Is the celestial god on the same side as himself?
The celestial god was only thinking, his intelligent mind told him that today, his answer to this question would affect many, many things.
