Douluo Continent: I teach and nurture students at Tianshui Academy!

As the lineage of the Angel God, the Spirit Hall still has some records of the Abyss Plane, even after 20,000 years. However, these records are not made public; even the Pope does not know them. Only the High Priest of the Spirit Hall can know them.

Qian Daoliu looked at the corpse of the Abyss Succubus with a solemn expression and began to explain some secrets from 20,000 years ago to Bibi Dong, Gu Shenge, and the others.

Twenty thousand years ago, the Rakshasa God and his two subordinate gods descended upon the Douluo Continent, intending to turn it into a corrupt and evil land.

So He opened a huge spacetime rift, connecting Douluo Continent with the Abyss Plane. Like a tidal wave, Abyss creatures poured into Douluo Continent, sweeping across the entire continent. In an instant, life was devastated and all things withered.

Only those who worship the Rakshasa God can be spared from the poison of the Abyss Plane. As a result, countless Soul Masters and Soul Beasts have fallen into evil, becoming evil Soul Masters and evil beasts. They join forces with the creatures of the Abyss to ravage and destroy the Douluo Continent, committing acts of world destruction.

Fortunately, the Angel God and his partner appeared out of nowhere. Together, they swept across the land, wiped out the evil soul masters, quelled the scourge of evil beasts, defeated the Rakshasa God and his two subordinate gods, and closed the abyss rift, thus saving the Douluo Continent from disaster.

In the end, Qian Daoliu looked on with reverence, praising the greatness of the angel god and his companion.

As for the Angel God's companion, the Spirit Hall did not record her real name, only a title.

His name is "Sun Emperor".

After listening to Qian Daoliu's account, Bibi Dong was full of surprise, but for some reason, a murderous intent arose in her heart, especially towards the Angel God. She felt that she wanted to cut the Angel God into a thousand pieces and tear him to pieces to vent her hatred!

When Gu Shenge heard the title "Sun Emperor," she felt a strange sense of familiarity.

"High Priest, if what you say is true, then twenty thousand years ago it was the Angel God and the Sun Emperor who repelled the Abyss Plane. Did they leave behind any methods?"

Bibi Dong asked Qian Daoliu, "Although Gu Shenge has closed the abyss rift, it might reopen someday. If we don't have some means to deal with it, the tragedy of 20,000 years ago might be repeated today."

Her original goal was to destroy the Spirit Hall and the Angel lineage.

But now that she has Gu Shenge by her side, her goals have naturally changed. She wants to focus on becoming a god and live happily ever after with Gu Shenge, and she doesn't want any more accidents to happen.

Of course, Bibi Dong still wants to destroy the angel lineage!

All the bishops looked at Qian Daoliu, hoping that the High Priest could come up with a solution.

However, Qian Daoliu shook his head.

"The Angel God and the Sun Emperor did not leave any solution, but the Sun Emperor did leave a prophecy that in 20,000 years, the Abyss Plane would once again invade the Douluo Plane. At that time, new people would help the Douluo Plane resist and defeat the invasion of the Abyss."

To be honest, Qian Daoliu didn't expect the Abyss Plane to invade Douluo Continent in his generation. He originally thought it would happen in one or two generations later.

However, Qian Daoliu still firmly believed in the prophecy of the Sun Emperor. Since that person said there would be a new person, there must be one. It was very likely that Xin's Angel God would be born in his generation.

The old man immediately thought of Qian Renxue. Perhaps, Xiaoxue was the newcomer the Holy Emperor was talking about.

The bishops began to whisper among themselves.

"Prophecy? It's been 20,000 years. Can prophecies really be believed?"

"Are you out of your mind? How dare you question the companion of the angel god? Aren't you afraid the high priest will slap you to death?"

"Whether it's a prophecy or not, the most urgent task now is to defend against the invasion of the Abyss Plane."

"Hey, didn't you hear Elder Haoyang say that he has closed the Abyss Rift, and the Abyss Plane can no longer invade Douluo Continent?"

"Really? Although Elder Haoyang is strong, how could the abyss rift close so easily? I find it hard to believe."

The bishops' discussion reached Bibi Dong's ears, immediately provoking the displeasure of the beautiful and mature pope. She coldly glanced at the bishop who had raised the question, thinking, "How dare you question my husband! You're asking for death!"

Instantly, the bishop felt a bone-chilling cold envelop him, as if he had fallen into an ice cave, chilled from head to toe.

The other bishops all distanced themselves from him, showing expressions of pity.

Dude, aren't you courting death? Putting aside whether Elder Haoyang has closed the abyss rift or not, you can't just openly question it.

Now you're in trouble, the boss has his eye on you. You're in for a lot of trouble.

The bishop who raised the question was on the verge of tears. Could he say that he had just misspoke?

Bibi Dong ignored the bishop and looked at Qian Daoliu, saying, "Great Elder, I think I know who the newcomer the Sun Emperor mentioned is."

"Yes, Your Holiness may speak frankly."

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu was startled. Could it be that Bibi Dong had also guessed that it was Xiaoxue?

The beautiful, mature female pope raised her hand and pointed at Gu Shenge, her cold and pretty face blossoming into a smile, her smile as radiant as a flower.

"The new person predicted must be Elder Haoyang, because just now, Elder Haoyang has closed the abyss rift."

"What?" Qian Daoliu turned to look at Gu Shengge, his eyes revealing astonishment and disbelief. The abyss rift had been closed?

According to the records of the Spirit Hall, the reason why the Abyss Rift opened by the Rakshasa God was able to close was because the Angel God and the Sun Emperor joined forces.

Qian Daoliu acknowledged that Gu Shenge was excellent, but with his strength, he was still far from being able to close the abyss rift. At least a demigod-level expert would be needed to do it!

Gu Shenge didn't expect his wife to suddenly pull this stunt on him, but seeing that Qian Daoliu didn't believe that he had closed the abyss rift, he immediately stepped forward to explain.

"Yes, I did close a deep abyss rift, but it wasn't long, only one or two meters. It was opened by the Demon Soul Cult."

"I see."

Qian Daoliu suddenly realized that the abyss rift was opened by the Demon Soul Sect after all this time. He had thought it was Rakshasa God's doing again.

According to the Spirit Hall records, the abyss rift opened by the Rakshasa God covered almost half of the Douluo Continent, and it took the Angel God and the Sun Emperor a great deal of effort to close it.

Although Gu Shenge is far inferior to the Angel God and the Sun Emperor, she can still close a rift that is only one or two meters wide.

Although Qian Daoliu favored Gu Shengge, in the old man's opinion, the newcomer mentioned by the Sun Emperor must be Xiaoxue, not someone else.

(Ahem, the foreshadowing is slowly being revealed now. Just a heads-up, the Angel God is also in Douluo Continent.)

Chapters 143-142: The Dangers of Abyssal Creatures

Although the abyss rift has been closed, Qian Daoliu is still somewhat uneasy, in case the Demon Soul Cult reopens it.

“Your Holiness, I will send the Angel Legion to guard the place where the Abyss Rift appears, in order to prevent the Demon Soul Cult from opening the Abyss Rift again.”

Qian Daoliu looked up at Bibi Dong, who was sitting on the throne, and indicated that he would arrange for the angel legion to handle the matter.

The Angel Legion is a direct descendant of the Thousand Families, and even Bibi Dong, as Pope, has no right to command them.

Every member of the Angel Legion is a descendant of the Qian family, possesses an Angel Martial Soul, and has reached the Soul Saint level in cultivation. The legion leader has even reached the Soul Douluo level, and is not far from becoming a Title Douluo.

This single legion of angels is enough to sweep across the continent.

If the Demon Soul Cult didn't possess the Demon Soul Minor Dimension, hidden deep within it, apart from those elders and venerable ones, the other Demon Soul Cult members would be nothing more than fish on a chopping board, utterly vulnerable in front of the Angel Legion, completely suppressed, and would even become supplements for the Angel Legion to improve its strength.

It's not just the six-winged angels that possess the ability to slay evil spirits and enhance their cultivation; all angelic martial souls have this ability, which is why the angelic legion is so powerful.

Bibi Dong nodded: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Grand Elder."

Afterwards, Qian Daoliu asked Gu Shenge about the location where the abyss rift appeared, and then turned and left the Papal Palace.

"Elder Haoyang, what should we do with the corpse of this Abyss Succubus?"

One of the bishops stepped forward, looking at the corpse of the Abyss Succubus with fear in his eyes. The other bishops suggested that the corpse of the Abyss Succubus should be destroyed as soon as possible to avoid causing any trouble. After all, this was a creature that did not belong to the Douluo Continent. What if there were any hidden dangers after its death? For example, its blood could infect Soul Masters.

"Please be patient, everyone. This abyssal succubus's corpse has other uses."

Gu Shenge told the bishops to calm down. The reason he left the corpse of the abyss succubus was not only to show it to Bibi Dong and the bishops, but also to warn everyone.

He spoke to the Templar Knights outside the temple and ordered, "Bring me an animal."

Before long, the Templar Knights caught a rabbit. Gu Shenge gathered her soul power between her fingers and cut a piece of meat from the Abyss Succubus. In front of everyone, she forcibly fed it to the rabbit.

Bibi Dong and the other bishops looked puzzled when they saw this scene. What was going on? Could it be that the flesh of the abyss creature was harmful to other creatures?

The rabbit ate the flesh of the abyss succubus. At first, there was no reaction, but as time passed, the rabbit underwent a strange change. Its originally pink fur gradually turned dark green, and its bright red rabbit eyes were filled with green.

The once gentle rabbit instantly became frenzied, opening its mouth and turning its cute rabbit teeth into sharp fangs, emitting low growls. It looked at the Abyss Succubus, its green rabbit eyes filled with madness and savagery, and its strength increased significantly. It actually broke free from the Templar Knight's grasp, and with a leap of its hind legs, jumped onto the Abyss Succubus, devouring its flesh.

"What!!"

Upon seeing this, the bishops all showed expressions of surprise, and Bibi Dong's eyes also became extremely solemn.

I thought the creatures of the abyss were just beings from another dimension, slightly stronger than ordinary soul masters and soul beasts, but I never expected their flesh and blood to have such terrifying corrosiveness!

If a harmless rabbit could become so ferocious after eating a little bit of the flesh and blood of an abyss succubus, what would happen if it were a soul beast that ate it?

Gu Shenge and Bibi Dong watched as the rabbit, which had been eating grass, began to devour the flesh and blood of the Abyss Succubus. Its body underwent a deeper change, gradually growing larger and longer, its limbs growing from less than thirty centimeters to more than half a meter long, and its aura becoming even more powerful.

"The flesh and blood of this abyssal succubus have a strong assimilative quality. The organs and tissues inside this rabbit have begun to change and mutate in a certain direction."

Gu Shenge looked at the Soft Bone Rabbit, her mental energy covering and enveloping the mutated rabbit, carefully observing the changes within its body. The abyssal laws contained in the flesh and blood of the Abyss Succubus had eroded it, starting with the rabbit's organs and then affecting its entire body, eventually transforming it into an Abyssal Rabbit.

The Templar Knight stepped forward, intending to grab the mutated rabbit, but a flash of cold light repelled him. The attack came from the mutated rabbit's claws, sharp and pointed.

Fortunately, the Templar Knights' armor was tough enough, otherwise they would have been scratched by the rabbit's mutated claws.

The rabbit's original pink fur turned completely dark green, its eyes were filled with savagery, its teeth changed from flat to sharp and menacing, and its claws became long and sharp, like knives.

It had only been a few minutes since she consumed the flesh and blood of the Abyss Succubus, yet such a significant change had occurred, which surprised Gu Shenge.

When Bibi Dong and the others saw how ferocious the mutated rabbit was, they realized the danger posed by the creatures of the abyss, both in life and in death, and that they should not be underestimated.

Gu Shenge instructed the Templar Knights to prepare a fine iron cage, put the mutated rabbit inside, and not kill it. He wanted to see just how far the rabbit could mutate.

"Your Holiness, you must have all seen the danger posed by these abyssal creatures."

He pointed at the mutated rabbit, which was extremely agitated and frantically attacking the iron cage, and spoke to Bibi Dong and the other bishops, his eyes showing a solemn expression.

Gu Shenge hadn't expected that the abyssal creatures would possess such a powerful corrosive nature. It wasn't mentioned in the original Douluo Continent III novel either. Indeed, one cannot rely on the original works to judge things.

The bishops began to discuss it, their tone filled with relief.

Fortunately, Elder Haoyang closed the abyss rift opened by the Demon Soul Sect. If more abyssal creatures had escaped, the trouble would have been much greater.

If those soul beasts were to consume the flesh and blood of abyssal creatures, they would inevitably become even more ferocious than this rabbit, which would surely trigger a soul beast riot, or even a beast tide, with unimaginable consequences!

A burly bishop with a fierce face stepped forward, bowed respectfully to Bibi Dong, and uttered a startling statement.

"Your Holiness, the Demon Soul Cult is utterly inhuman and disregards all human ethics. They actually intend to reopen the Abyss Rift, allowing the Abyss Plane to invade Douluo Continent and plunge the continent into peril. We beg Your Holiness to order us to annihilate the Demon Soul Cult!"

His proposal was agreed upon by many bishops.

“Your Holiness, Bishop Rhodes is right. The Demon Soul Cult is utterly depraved. If it is not eradicated soon, they may reopen the Abyss Rift and cause unimaginable disaster!”

"We beg Your Holiness to order the complete eradication of the Demon Soul Cult!"

"Please give the order, Your Holiness!"

Faced with the petition from a group of bishops, Bibi Dong fell into deep thought. Eradicating the Demon Soul Cult is easy to say. If it could be eradicated, why wait until now?

Gu Shenge watched from the side, but she always felt that something was wrong.
