Chapter 1816 The Abyssal Passage Disappeared

Tang Wulin dialed the military communicator and immediately proposed his idea.

Alright. Yu Guanzhi replied immediately. He trusted Tang Wulin very much by now. It was no longer that crucial whether the Eternal Heaven was used as a one-off weapon or a superweapon which could be used repeatedly. The Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array was stopped at the very least! This allowed them to reduce the risk of sacrificing the Federations elite soldiers.

Just by launching the blast earlier, the Tang Sect and Shrek Academys crime of stealing the Eternal Heaven from the Federation could be pardoned. It also demonstrated their sense of fair play.

It took a full ten minutes before the artillery fire stopped. Under the smoke plumes which covered the battlefield, the shockwaves had changed the surrounding terrain.

The ground was full of craters. The location where the abyssal legion was earlier had caved in a few hundred meters. It was blasted into a hideous mess.

However, they discovered in astonishment that the abyssal passage had disappeared when the dust settled. It had vanished into thin air just like that.

Tang Wulin and the numerous Shrek Academys powerhouses remained hovering in the air. He unleashed his spiritual power to feel the aura coming from below.

He found that it was true that the abyssal planes aura had vanished similarly.

On the other hand, the discovery faded every persons excitement.

One at least knew where the terror was coming from for a visible abyssal passage. On the other hand, an invisible abyssal passage was a real terror. The most disturbing part was whether the abyssal passage would appear behind the Federation legion.

Yu Guanzhi had brought over numerous powerhouses from the military and the War God Hall to Tang Wulin.

What happened? Why did the abyssal passage disappear? All our reconnoitre soul devices couldnt detect its whereabouts. Yu Guanzhis voice sounded anxious.

Tang Wulin said, Supreme commander, stay calm. Lets analyze the situation. In the earlier situation, the abyssal passage advanced slowly under the cover of the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array. It cant be faked, for sure. If they can move any faster, they wouldve seized the opportunity during the Western Army Corps melee to charge into our defenses. That should have been their top speed. Hence, they cant run far even if theyre running. Besides, they cant charge out from our encirclement. One more thing, it wouldnt be easy for the abyssal passage to move. Otherwise, why hasnt the abyssal passage guarded by the Blood God Army for so many years moved? It may be related to the seal, but there has not been any sign of movement in the past! I suspect that the abyssal passage is moving only because its absolutely related to the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array.

Yu Guanzhi calmed down gradually upon listening to his analysis. His eyes lit up for a moment. So, what are you implying?

Their gazes shifted simultaneously to the crater located not far away.

The Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie chimed in, Its highly possible that theyre not moving but sinking downward instead. Theyre retreating to the abyssal plane in order to gain more time.

As soon as those words were spoken, the numerous Federation powerhouses on the scene wised up. Yu Guanzhi said without the slightest hesitation, Dig underground. We must seize the opportunity to seal the passage.

The mecha troop that came with him immediately went into action. They charged toward the crater right away.

Meanwhile, Yu Guanzhi tugged at Tang Wulins sleeve gently. A layer of gentle soul power enshrouded both of them.

Tang Sect Master, I have some questions for you. He looked at Tang Wulin with a burning gaze.

Tang Wulin said, Please go ahead.

Yu Guanzhi spoke in a deep voice, Can the Eternal Heaven be used again?

Tang Wulin shook his head and said, I dont know yet at the moment. The residual complications are too severe. Director Ling died from the tremor earlier. She was saved by Her Excellency, the Holy Spirit, and shes recuperating now. Ive yet to find out if the Eternal Heaven can be reused. So, I cant confirm if we can continue to use it.

Yu Guanzhi was silent for a moment before he spoke, If you can, please be prepared since no one knows whats going to happen at the abyssal plane.

Hmm. Noted. Tang Wulin nodded.

He could not possibly tell Yu Guanzhi the whole truth. After all, this was related to the future of the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. Also, he really had no idea if the Eternal Heaven could be used again. It was quite difficult judging from Ling Zichens current physical condition. With the Limit Douluo-ranked treatment, she had been resurrected as her injuries were truly severe. It would take a very long period for her to recover in order to prevent residual complications in the future.

Under such circumstances, how could he force her into utilizing the Eternal Heaven again!

The digging had already begun. Yet, there were no traces of the abyssal passages aura after digging down for over a hundred meters. It startled everyone.

Yu Guanzhi initiated the order for all the federal militarys reconnoitre soul devices to search for the whereabouts of the abyssal passage beginning at the epicenter of the explosion.

No one expected this to happen.

They destroyed the Bloodriver Godkiller Great Array with great effort, yet the abyssal passage disappeared. Moreover, there were so many abyssal powerhouses earlier but none remained currently. It seemed they had all joined the Holy Spirit Cults powerhouses to vanish into nothingness.

From Gu Yuenas feedback, the Eternal Heaven did not manage to completely destroy the entire abyssal passage. Otherwise, the abyssal energy would not escape her. However, there was utterly no way to tell the whereabouts of the abyssal passage judging from the current situation. It was most unsettling.

The abyssal passage was akin to a time bomb which could explode at any moment. No one wanted it to happen.

The search lasted for three full days without any result. The entire Thule was searched, but not even one abyssal creature could be found.

The Southern Army Corps finally arrived to join the defense. They locked down the passes and passages of the entire Thule.

After having a few discussions and analyses with the Blood God Army which was most experienced in fighting the abyssal creatures, Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect, the Spirit Pagoda, the War God Hall, and a few great organizations together with the military reached a consensus.

The abyssal passage certainly had coordinates in order to link with the Douluo Continent plane. The coordinates must be fixed as well.

Judging from the situation at the time, the Eternal Heaven did severely injure the abyssal legion. As a result, they had no choice but to fall back.

In order to prevent the federal military from sealing the passage, the abyssal plane chose to retreat straight away and not put up any resistance. Hence, they closed off the link passage spontaneously. Because of this, the federal military failed to detect their presence.

Under such circumstances, mankinds legion could not locate their presence so long as the abyssal plane did not open up the passage. Furthermore, there was a possibility that the opening of the passage was a distance away because the planes coordinates were fixed at that location.

With the analysis, it was mutually agreed that they should begin to construct a strong defense. They would use the spot where the abyssal passage disappeared as the location to set up their defenses as well as to construct a sealing array.

Although the effect of the seal would not be as effective since it did not seal the abyssal passage directly, it was still better than no seal at all. At the very least, the place would be fortified. If the abyssal passage were to open in the future, it would at least buy some time for the federal military.

The federal military and the three great fleets were still on high alert. After discussing with the parliament, they made the decision to stay and guard Thule temporarily to fortify the defense at the passages exit. They would not be withdrawing their troops for the next six months at least.

At the same time, the ex-regimental commander of the Sea God Army Boundless Sea Douluo Chen Xinjie, the Central Army Corps regimental commander Divine Brush Douluo Yu Guanzhi, and also the Western Army Corps regimental commander Ferocious Wolf Douluo Dong Zian and the rest of the high-ranking military officers jointly proposed to the Federation to resume the superweapon research.
