"Tang San!"
The God of Destruction was truly enraged.
Caught him red-handed!
This Sea God, taking advantage of the Divine Realm Central Hub's management rights, was practically treating the Douluo Continent as his own back garden, influencing it at will!
...
Su Yu returned to the Douluo Continent, and after feeling his soul and body gradually readapt, opened his eyes to see his teacher.
"Teacher."
"Hmm, you've been in contemplation here for a month now."
After the Reincarnation Grass endured the Celestial Tribulation, Su Yu sat cross-legged on the ground, seemingly merging with the surrounding world. Kong Deming thought Su Yu had realized something profound.
Yet, this contemplation lasted an entire month.
"Contemplation?" Su Yu hadn't expected the God of Destruction was capable of creating such an illusion.
"Teacher, we should head back first."
On the way, Su Yu recounted his experiences in the Divine Realm.
After all, although there wasn't any particularly useful information for Kong Deming from this trip to the Divine Realm, the fact that Su Yu was summoned to the Divine Realm and had a great chance of achieving Divinity was significant news for him.
"Did you truly feel the presence of that Abyss?"
After his initial joy, Kong Deming quickly grasped a point.
Unlike the God of Destruction, Kong Deming felt that Su Yu had indeed developed an interest in the Abyss.
"Yes, and this time I need your help, Teacher."
"Tell me, whatever I can help with, I will try my best."
"The contact between the Abyss and the Douluo Continent won't happen too soon; at most, it will only be closer to the Douluo Continent. To devour the Abyss, I must take the initiative to strike, but first, we must pinpoint the Abyss's location. I need to create a Soul-guiding Device sensitive to the Power of Space, possibly at Level 9, and the detection range shouldn't be small, requiring your help, Teacher."
Su Yu could make it by himself, but it would take a longer time.
It was better to have someone like Kong Deming, who had research experience in space-type Soul-guiding Devices, join in. It would not only save time but also train his teacher to better construct the Core Array of the Sun and Moon Divine Light Shield. After all, the Sun and Moon Divine Light Shield also involved a lot of space control.
Kong Deming nodded, indicating no problem.
After saying goodbye to his teacher, Su Yu returned to Mingde Hall and found the cultivating Snow Empress, outlining some of his requests.
"Snow Empress, according to my perception, the location where the Abyss and Douluo's space are closest is in the Land of the Far North."
Although the two planes hadn't connected yet, there were still field collisions between them, which would cause abnormal fluctuations in the Power of Space.
Su Yu hoped to determine the spatial distance between the Abyss and the Douluo Continent through monitoring this fluctuation, and even lock onto the Abyss's specific location.
"You want to reverse invade the Abyss?"
The Snow Empress frowned, finding Su Yu's actions too bold.
She quickly accepted Su Yu's explanation regarding the Abyss, and precisely because of this, the Abyss's power made her feel that Su Yu's plan was quite risky.
"Don't worry, I won't execute the plan without absolute certainty."
As always, the Divine Realm wouldn't have problems, and the Abyss wouldn't dare to truly act.
Even if they became disconnected, the Abyss would only get a bit closer for probing rather than attacking.
If Su Yu wasn't confident, he wouldn't forcibly attempt to counter-devour them.
Everything that should be planned in advance must be done.
If the plan is feasible, execute it; if not, abandon it.
It's just that simple.
The Snow Empress felt that Su Yu wasn't a reckless person.
He clearly had the strength to barely fight against a Level 98, but conservatively assessed himself at Level 96, with the all-out potential to withstand one or two Level 97 attacks...
If not for the fact that Su Yu fought against Yan Shaozhe and the injured Xuanzi alone in the Soul Fighting Competition, Su Yu's strength might have remained at the nearly Level 97 level he claimed.
"Okay, I will place the detection Soul-guiding Devices in the depths of the Land of the Far North when the time comes."
"When will your Soul Spirit Cultivation System be completed?" Snow Empress inquired.
In Mingde Hall, the pervasive metallic scent displeased Snow Empress. She wanted to return to her Land of the Far North soon.
Moreover, she still had leads on the Ice God to pursue.
"It might still require waiting for Huo Yuhao to complete his Soul Core condensation before attempting."
In a month's time, Huo Yuhao had already begun the condensation of his Soul Core.
As for the cultivation techniques of the Soul Spirit System, Su Yu had already perfected them.
...
"Huo Yuhao's first Soul Core is likely to be the Spirit Soul Core, which shouldn't be too difficult for him."
Outside Huo Yuhao's cultivation room, Mirror Hongchen, Su Yu, and Snow Empress waited.
"Sigh, creating a Soul Core at Level 70, it's hard to say whether that's good or bad." Although Su Yu had numerous ideas, this unprecedented cultivation sequence always made people feel uneasy.
"The quality of his Soul Power has just undergone a qualitative change and is becoming more stable, so this Soul Core formation should be successful." Su Yu spoke.
"Oh, Xiaoyu, how do you plan to handle the Shrek team?" Mirror Hongchen shifted the topic, avoiding further anxiety, while inquiring about Su Yu's plans for the members of Shrek's two teams.
"Did Shrek send anyone to negotiate?"
"No. Xuanzi and his team's disappearance in the depths of the Sun and Moon Mountain Range has led our Sun and Moon Empire to close the borders, and Shrek City likely hasn't received accurate news within the short span of a month."
They didn't even know their outstanding students had been imprisoned, so naturally, they weren't prepared to negotiate with Mingde Hall.
