The Gateway to the Abyss, which had been crystal clear just moments ago, suddenly became blurred as Wang Long approached, instantly replaced by the shadow of a deity!
Unlike the previous calm and eerie encounter, this time the deity embodied madness and cunning, two completely opposite traits. Even Wang Long, who was usually composed, couldn't help but be taken aback by this sudden change.
What shocked him even more was that this time the deity not only appeared but also emanated an overwhelming force from within, a crushing power that made it impossible for anything in front of him—be it wind, rain, thunder, lightning, or even Wang Long himself—to escape its grasp!
Hadn't the deity destroyed its own powers before? Why could it now attack him with such astonishing strength?
Even with Wang Long's formidable abilities, he found himself unable to react to this sudden assault, left only to await death's arrival.
Below, Jiang Xue, Princess Lingli, and others gasped at this unexpected turn of events. However, their strength paled in comparison to the Four Sea Dragon Kings, let alone the clash between a deity and Wang Long. The terrifying force of strangulation posed a significant threat to them as well!
Even if they risked everything to rush in and help, it would be futile; they would only be sealing their own fates.
The outcome was already determined!
Then, Wang Long smiled!
Indeed, the deity didn't need to rub its eyes to be 100% certain of the triumphant smile on Wang Long's face.
It seemed as though he hadn't fallen into his trap but rather that he had fallen into his control!
"No!" Countless years of experience, calculation, and caution made the deity realize that at this moment, Wang Long was not merely bluffing—such tactics were useless. The force he exerted was beyond his control, and who was he trying to impress with this bluff?
Buzz!
A nearly imperceptible vibration resonated in the air, yet this barely noticeable tremor had the power to disperse that astonishing force. To outsiders, it seemed like a low-level Shen Walking Dragon Technique, merely a trick to create an illusion for Wang Long.
However, the deity's expression changed: "Human Emperor!"
"Indeed!" The entire sky transformed, but it was not the Human Emperor's Thirty-Three Heavens Palace Golden Gate; it was Wang Long's Eighteen Layers of Hell and Yellow Springs!
Unbeknownst to anyone, he had combined his extraordinary treasure with the most sophisticated Shen Walking Dragon Technique, gaining complete control over the battlefield. The deity, believing himself to be the one benefiting in the end, had no idea that from the very beginning, he had fallen into his opponent's trap!
Just a few months ago, he had faced Wang Long and the Human Emperor as a player; now he had almost become their pawn!
"How did you calculate this situation?" The deity suppressed his inner turmoil and frustration from that rare failed strike. "Why have I never sensed that you had already laid out the Eighteen Layers of Hell and Yellow Springs here?"
"Because I had already cleared the Gateway to the Abyss. Although the Eighteen Layers of Hell and Yellow Springs manifested throughout the sky, I knew you were always integrated with the Gateway to the Abyss, so I deliberately kept it that way to avoid alarming you."
"You already knew?"
"That's right. I sensed your presence when I returned from the divine realm." With the initiative now reversed, Wang Long saw no need to hide anything from him. "If I'm not mistaken, after your defeat in our last battle, you have been waiting for an opportunity—one that doesn't require your own strength or can borrow enough power from others to completely eliminate me and the Human Emperor! In the divine realm, the existence of trial participants from the divine clan perfectly fits this criterion. In your original plan, you should have faced a weakened version of me like you did with the Human Emperor back then; although I might not have been dead, I would certainly have sustained serious internal injuries. However, reality surprised you: first, the Human Emperor arrived here not for battle but in a peaceful manner, raising your suspicions. Then you saw me return safely from the divine realm!"
"At that point, there was no chance for any ambush; if we were to fight seriously, with both me and the Human Emperor working together, it would likely be even more unfavorable for you than last time because neither of us would fall for your tricks again and allow you to exhaust our Spiritual Essence using two treasures! Therefore, you wisely chose to endure."
"Because you knew there was still a chance!"
"Is that so?" The deity coldly looked at Wang Long. "Do not act as if everything is within your calculations! As long as I am here, you can only be a pawn in my game!"
"Then does the deity dare to say that my assumptions are all wrong?" Wang Long seemed unfazed by his imposing presence. Now that both sides had reached a similar level of power, and after gaining some understanding of Primordial Power from the divine realm, Wang Long had a much greater insight into the deity's methods. His chances in this battle were significantly higher than in the previous one.
"Hmph!" The deity did not fall into his trap and remained silent, but deep down, he was still greatly shaken!
"Your scheme is to use such an exquisite technique of virtuality to almost merge yourself with the entire Gateway to the Abyss. Unfortunately for you, I had already discovered your location back then. I had also guessed that you must have figured out some way to 'borrow' the power of destruction, waiting for the right moment to strike me down! After that, it became much simpler—just see how to lure you out and make you attack me, and we would take advantage of that moment to force you into a situation where you had no choice but to fight!"
"Then how did you know I would strike at you this time? If the Human Emperor had appeared just half a step later, you would at least be severely injured now!"
"This is quite simple. After several previous tests, I knew you were waiting for the moment when my guard was lowest to act because you understand that even the most resolute person cannot always be on high alert. Even I, if it goes on for too long, would show a slight flaw. Therefore, rather than wait for you to discover my weakness, it’s better to push you a bit more. Letting you have no choice but to settle for second best. So, I spread the news that the Four Sea Dragon Kings would arrive in Dragon City tomorrow."
"Even this news was your doing..." The deity's face darkened. At this point, even if he could maintain his composure outwardly, he could not deny in his heart that he had indeed fallen into their calculations.
"So, you would definitely act today, and at the timing I anticipated. The first time I passed through, I appeared somewhat cautious; you were not in a hurry because over the previous days, you had already grasped the pattern. And when it came to the last time, you thought I would be careless since I had passed through once without danger. Little did you know that the Human Emperor had already approached under the cover of my Eighteen Layers of Hell and Yellow Springs."
After listening to Wang Long's analysis, the deity slowly closed his eyes and after a long while uttered two words: "Impressive!"
"But!"
"Also very foolish!"
"Oh?" Wang Long smiled slightly; he already knew that no matter what considerations the deity had, he could not allow him to feel too proud. "Isn't it true that at this moment, the deity has fallen into our scheme?"
"And so what! Even if you two join forces again, what can you do to me!"
"While the scheme is indeed extremely important, at the same time, to truly achieve one's goals, one must possess corresponding strength! With the power you two currently have, what can you possibly do to me?"
"Truly worthy of being a deity, your tone and demeanor are exactly like those of the divine beings in the divine realm!" Wang Long said nonchalantly, smiling lightly. "It is precisely because of what Your Excellency mentioned that I have specially prepared some gifts for you for this battle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the already dominant Eighteen Layers of Hell and Yellow Springs Initiative Strike unleashed a cacophony of wails and howls that echoed across the battlefield. Even the original Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence was directly manipulated; even with the high realm of a deity's strength, it became impossible to control the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence with ease.
Afterward, the Human Emperor showed no hesitation and directly summoned his strongest treasure, the Thirty-Three Heavens Palace Golden Gate.
If Wang Long's main tactic was to create distractions, then the Human Emperor could unleash a full-on assault.
At this moment, the Thirty-Three Heavens Palace Golden Gate transformed into numerous golden small swords. Although they appeared to lack any significant power, within the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence manipulated by Wang Long, they were unaffected and could still unleash their astonishing might. Even a deity would have to take them seriously.
Repeatedly mentioning the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence, yet his Spirit could never harmonize with it. Those Heaven and Earth Spirit Essences seemed to be completely out of control under the wails and howls, losing all their original order beneath heaven and earth; no one could easily manipulate them.
However, if they thought this would force him into a position where he had no moves left to make, they were bound to suffer a great loss once again!
"Primal Aura!"
