Douluo: The Dragon King - I Planted the Divine Tree in Douluo

Apart from her, neither Huo Yuhao nor Tianmeng had ever been treated so gently by the Ice Emperor.

The thought that this tenderness would no longer belong to her from now on filled Xue Di with an indescribable emotion.

Led by Huoyan, Su Mo and his group quickly arrived near the northernmost point of the land.

"Fire Eye, why did you bring us to the Extreme Point?"

Looking at the vast, white expanse of ice before her, Hyotei, now in human form, couldn't help but ask.

Fire Eye remained silent and continued heading deeper into the ice field.

Having been rebuffed, Hyotei had no choice but to continue following.

Almost the instant they crossed the pole, both Hyotei and Yuki-tei sensed that something was wrong.

"This aura...is it from the Abyss?"

Sensing the faint, malevolent aura emanating from the air, Hyotei's heart jolted, and his expression instantly became extremely solemn.

Hyotei subconsciously looked at Yuki-tei, who nodded with a similarly solemn expression.

After ascending to the God Realm with Huo Yuhao, they also helped him deal with some matters related to the Abyss.

Therefore, the two of them were extremely familiar with the aura of the abyss.

"Fire Eye, when did the aura of the abyss appear?"

Hyotei asked impatiently, his voice filled with barely concealed anxiety.

Of course, Hyotei can't be entirely blamed for being in a hurry.

When an abyssal aura appears in a plane for no apparent reason, it means that the plane has been targeted by the abyssal plane.

They had personally experienced just how powerful the Abyss Plane was.

If the Abyss were to truly descend upon Douluo Continent, the two of them would be absolutely powerless to stop it.

Chapter 176 The Collapse of the Snow Empress

"About five hundred years ago, the aura of the Abyss Plane appeared here, intending to use the far north as a springboard to invade the entire Douluo Continent."

Fire Eyes answered calmly, his eyes revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"Fire Eye, do you know about the Abyss Dimension?"

Upon hearing Huoyan calmly utter the words "Abyss Plane," both Bingdi and Xuedi wore expressions as if they had seen a ghost.

You should know that they only learned of the existence of the Abyss Plane after they ascended to the God Realm with Huo Yuhao.

But right now, Huoyan, who has been staying on Douluo Continent, has easily revealed it.

Su Mo noticed their confusion and kindly reminded them, "That... the Abyss Plane has already descended upon Douluo Continent!"

"You're saying the Abyss Plane has already descended upon Douluo Continent?"

Upon hearing this shocking news, Xue Di could no longer maintain her aloofness and cried out in shock.

"Ok!"

Su Mo nodded seriously, "This is no secret on the Douluo Continent. Even now, the human soul master army is still facing off in the Endless Mountains and the Abyss."

"Su Mo, you're right!"

"The Abyss Plane has already descended upon Douluo Continent."

Fire Eye nodded in agreement.

"Sigh~"

Xue Di gasped, then rushed to Su Mo and anxiously asked, "When did the Abyss Plane descend upon Douluo Continent?"

Six thousand years ago!

"how come?"

Upon hearing Su Mo's reply, Xue Di staggered back a step.

Having lived in the realm of gods, Xue Di was well aware of just how serious the consequences of opening the abyss passage would be.

Once the abyss passage is opened, if it cannot be closed within a hundred years before the passage becomes completely stable, there will basically be no chance to close it again.

If the Abyss Plane has been present in Douluo Continent for less than a century, she and the Ice Emperor, with the methods they learned from the God Realm, would most likely be able to close the Abyss Passage by joining forces.

But now the Abyss Passage has existed in the Douluo Continent for six thousand years, and even if the two of them risked their lives, they could not close the Abyss Passage.

In this era where the realm of gods has vanished, once the Abyss Plane fully descends, the entire Douluo Continent will become bait for the Abyss.

"You seem to know a lot about the Abyss Plane?"

Seeing Xue Di biting her thumb and her brows furrowed into a deep frown, Su Mo quietly inquired with Bing Di.

"Ok!"

Hyotei nodded heavily, then whispered, "Besides overseeing the lower realms, the God Realm is also responsible for dealing with the Abyss Plane."

Upon hearing this, Su Mo's face flashed with surprise. He hadn't expected that the God Realm would have such a responsibility. He then joked with the Ice Emperor, "So this invasion from the Abyss Plane was caused by your laziness?"

Hearing Su Mo pin the blame for the invasion of the Abyss Planes on her, Ice Emperor retorted without hesitation, "You're talking nonsense! All the Abyss Planes under the jurisdiction of the God Realm have long been wiped out."

But Hyotei quickly realized she had said the wrong thing and hurriedly grabbed Su Mo's arm, saying in a sweet voice, "I was a little harsh just now, don't take it to heart."

Looking at Hyotei trying to act young, Su Mo felt a chill and got goosebumps all over his body.

Seeing this, Hyotei glared fiercely at Su Mo.

Su Mo pretended not to see it, "No, since you have already cleaned up the Abyss Plane, where did the Abyss Plane that invaded Douluo Continent come from?"

"You wouldn't have only cleaned up the abyssal planes within the jurisdiction of the God Realm, and not cleaned up the surrounding abyssal planes, would you?!"

Hyotei shook their heads and vehemently denied it, saying, "Of course not, we're not idiots."

"I remember very clearly that the God Realm also cleaned up the Abyss Planes outside its jurisdiction."

"Snow Empress, do you think this Abyss Plane might have been swept in by a spacetime turbulence?"

After thinking for a moment, Hyotei looked at Yuki-tei, who was deep in thought.

Xue Di didn't answer, but clenched her fists and bit her lip hard, looking heartbroken.

Seeing this, Su Mo stared intently at the Snow Empress and said in a deep voice, "Snow Empress, do you know where this Abyss Plane came from?"

Xue Di closed her eyes slightly, as if suppressing the emotions churning in her chest, and nodded slowly after a moment.

"Ah."

"If I'm not mistaken, the Abyss Plane that invaded Douluo Continent was summoned by Tang San."

"Otherwise, those two wouldn't have stood by and watched the abyss passage open."

Xue Di's voice was soft, yet carried an unprecedented certainty.

"!!!"

Hyotei was startled by what he heard, then nodded in agreement as if he had thought of something.

Seeing everyone keeping their answers a secret, Su Mo quickly nudged Hyotei's arm and whispered, "What exactly is going on? Why do you all say that Tang San attracted the Abyss Plane here?"

"Because Tang San's parents are still on Douluo Continent, without their tacit approval, it would have been impossible for the Abyss to open a dimensional passage to Douluo Continent."

As Hyotei spoke, he suddenly began to grit his teeth.

The fact that Tang Hao and Ah Yin have been staying on Douluo Continent means that they knew about the Tang Sect and the Spirit Pagoda's attack on the far north.

These two clearly knew about the connection between the far north and them, yet they didn't utter a single word—they're practically inhuman.

"Grass!"

"You two bastards!"

Hyotei cursed angrily.

"Ahhh~"

Just as Hyotei was cursing Tang Hao and his wife, Yuki-tei seemed to have all her strength drained away.

He stood there, stunned, his pupils unfocused, muttering to himself like a walking corpse, "So that's how it is, so that's how it is!"

"Liars, they're all liars!"

Xue Di suddenly became extremely agitated and grabbed Bing Di's hand, "Bing Di, he lied to me!"

"Yuhao lied to me!"

"???"

Hyotei was completely stunned.

Seeing the emotionally distraught Yuki-tei, Hyotei had countless questions flashing through her mind.

She was the one who was willing to turn against her to defend Huo Yuhao, and now she's the one angrily calling Huo Yuhao a liar.

Although Hyotei had just told himself that he should distance himself from Yukiteri in the future.

But seeing Yuki-tei seemingly abandoned by the whole world, Hyotei still couldn't sit idly by.

Ice Emperor reached out and embraced Snow Empress, gently patting her back as if soothing a child. "Snow Empress, what are you saying? Where did Huo Yuhao lie to you?"

Xue Di collapsed into Bing Di's arms, her body still trembling.

Clinging tightly to Hyotei's clothes as if grasping at a last lifeline, his voice hoarse and almost broken, "The far north... about the far north... Yuhao already knew!"

As soon as Xue Di said this, Bing Di's raised hand suddenly froze in mid-air.

Thank you to Ai Chi Kao Ji and Lao Cang Er Hao Ji for the donations.

A short break in the chapter!

Chapter 177 Huo Yuhao finally goes online

"Snow Empress, what exactly happened?"

Hyotei shoved Yukito aside and asked coldly.

Hyotei never expected that even at this point, Yuki-tei would still be hiding something from her.
