Chapter 214: Impossible!
In the video, Douluo Star, once a brilliant blue, was now gradually turning gray and red. The gray was the land, now lifeless and ashen; the red was the water, transformed into a corrosive, crimson liquid. Nearly 90% of the planet had already succumbed to the Abyss.
Only its inhabitants remained, still fighting desperately, struggling against the demonic tide.
This was not a war between two human armies where surrender meant survival. Here, to stop resisting meant certain death.
Fighting was the only option.
Yet as the planet continued to Abyssalize, the demons only grew stronger.
Conversely, humans and soul beasts found their power diminished, their energy regeneration severely hindered.
The three remaining God Kings Silver Dragon King, Neptune, and Sun Zhongjing were already covered in wounds, engaged in a desperate struggle against four Great Abyssal Demons.
Silver Dragon King had assumed her true form, Neptune had summoned ocean tides, and Sun Zhongjing had spread plagues, yet they were only barely holding on.
But anyone could see
Their defeat was only a matter of time.
And once these three fell…
The entire world would be doomed.
[What do we do?! Is there really no hope?!]
[Damn it! Tang San is too despicable!]
[Is the future really this bleak?!]
[Where is Ye Cheng?! Why hasn't he appeared yet?!]
[Even if they win, the world is already beyond saving…]
[It's over… completely over…]
In the livestream, countless viewers were panicking.
Because this video was their original future.
Even if they had been warned in advance, the idea that they might still lose despite all their advantages was utterly terrifying.
To become one of those grotesque Abyssal monsters the thought alone was disgusting.
Many would rather die than become such an abomination.
Unlike Tang San, most people would never willingly become demons just for power.
But just when all seemed lost
A turning point appeared.
The video's perspective suddenly shifted, zooming outward from the Abyss tainted Douluo Star.
The screen jumped to space
And then…
To the Sun.
From a macro perspective, the Sun was displayed in all its grandeur.
A colossal, ever burning celestial body.
And yet
At that very moment
The Sun shuddered.
This infinite source of light and heat suddenly dimmed.
For three entire seconds, its radiance was snuffed out
As if something had siphoned its energy away in an instant.
Then, the glow returned.
To the naked eye, the Sun looked unchanged.
But the livestream viewers knew
What they had just seen was not an illusion.
For three seconds, the Sun had truly lost its light.
[W Wait… What just happened?!]
[Did the Sun… actually go out for a moment?!]
[This can't be real!]
[It felt like something just drained all of its energy…]
[Three seconds! The Sun lost light for THREE WHOLE SECONDS! Do you even realize how much energy that is?!]
The chat exploded.
Everyone was stunned.
Even though it had been only three seconds, considering the sheer scale of the Sun
The amount of energy lost in those moments was beyond comprehension.
The video shifted back to Douluo Star.
By now, the entire planet had turned gray and red 99% Abyssalized.
Perhaps only a single core region remained, still resisting the corruption.
The last surviving lifeforms were already undergoing grotesque transformations.
Some grew horns, some sprouted tails, others developed scales or beastly features.
All life was mutating into Abyssal creatures.
Only God ranked beings could still barely resist the corruption.
But even they wouldn't last much longer.
It was just a matter of time before they too succumbed.
"…Is the world really going to end?"
A God ranked Soul Master murmured in despair, watching as his former comrades grotesquely mutated into Abyssal demons.
He looked up at the blackened sky, his face filled with hopelessness.
Then, at last
He gave up.
Abyssal energy engulfed him instantly.
Within seconds, his body expanded, his head sprouted horns, his mouth filled with fangs, his skin grew red fur, his limbs transformed into beast like claws.
He became the first God ranked being to succumb to the Abyss.
And like dominoes falling, one after another…
More God ranked beings followed.
The moment they transformed, their souls were corrupted.
Instantly, they turned against their former comrades, launching brutal attacks.
Meanwhile
Silver Dragon King, Neptune, and Sun Zhongjing were at their limit.
For beings of their level, killing each other was extremely difficult.
So, instead of fighting head on, the four Great Abyssal Demons had adopted a different strategy
They deliberately avoided direct combat.
They stalled for time.
Because they knew
The longer they waited, the more Abyssal energy would spread.
The world itself would begin suppressing all non Abyssal beings.
And now
The three God Kings were barely holding on.
Silver Dragon King's once pristine body was now covered in deep wounds.
Some areas were rotting, others completely necrotic.
She was only standing because of sheer willpower.
Neptune and Sun Zhongjing were in equally terrible shape.
Bloodied. Exhausted. No longer resembling the dignified God Kings they once were.
"Hahaha! DIE!!!"
Tang San, his massive demonic body grinning wickedly, raised his twisted bone trident.
He hurled it straight at Silver Dragon King
A killing blow.
But then
Something changed.
A brilliant, indescribable light erupted from Silver Dragon King's body.
In that instant
The world itself seemed to freeze.
The blinding radiance engulfed the entire battlefield, stretching across half the planet.
And then
Miraculously
Her wounds vanished.
Her shattered scales regrew.
Her broken bones reformed.
Even her power began surging beyond its limits.
"ROOOOOAR!!!!"
Silver Dragon King let out a deafening, majestic roar.
Her entire form radiated with divine brilliance.
And then
Half the Abyss tainted world was illuminated.
"What… What is this?!"
Tang San's eyes widened in sheer disbelief.
Watching Silver Dragon King recover instantly, her power rising at an impossible rate
A horrifying realization struck him.
His voice trembled.
"No… No, it can't be…"
His ugly demonic head shook violently.
"THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!"
Tang San desperately threw his bone trident again
But
Before it could even touch her…
The pure white radiance incinerated it into dust.
