Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

"It's Douluo Continent!"

"No matter what happens to the Tang Clan, it cannot change this mission. For us, nothing is more important than guarding the Abyss Passage. I am also struggling internally, but I cannot leave here because of this. We have no right to leave. Unless one day we can completely sever the Abyss Passage or destroy the Abyss Dimension, we will guard this place until the moment of our death."

Yes! This is the Blood God's mission, and the mission of every soldier. No matter what happens, nothing is more important than protecting this place, because once the abyss passage is breached by abyssal creatures, true devastation will ensue. Countless lives will have to die before it can be resealed.

Therefore, no one will leave! They will always stay here to guard this area!

"Gu You's situation is indeed very special. We can also try to see if we can make his Golden Dragon Spear play a greater role in fighting against abyssal creatures."

Looking at the silent Gu You, Xue Yi asked, "Gu You, does your Golden Dragon Spear, which absorbs abyssal energy, have any side effects?"

Gu You shook his head. "There are no side effects. But if you absorb too much, you might feel unwell."

He could never forget the time he absorbed energy during the battle, which resulted in his body exploding.

Blood nodded. "Alright, from now on, as an unofficial member of the Blood God Camp, you will only be under the command of the Blood God Camp and should not participate in battles at will. I will devise a set of tactics specifically for your situation."

"yes!"

Blood looked at the others, "Blood Six, Blood Seven, Blood Eight, you go and guard the passage. This tide is very strong. However, Gu You attracted the Demon Queen's attention once, so she won't be able to intervene again in this tide. Gu You, come with me."

Blood Six, Blood Seven, and Blood Eight left first.

Xue Yi led Gu You to a door in the center of the round hall. The door opened, and he led him inside.

The room wasn't very large, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was abundant. The room was simply and plainly furnished, barely larger than Gu You's dormitory. There wasn't even a bed; just a few futons on the floor.

"Please sit down." Xue Yi pointed to a prayer mat.

Gu You sat down.

Xue Yi sat down opposite him.

"I've heard of you. You must be quite intelligent. From our conversation just now, you should know what kind of crime I'm now facing."

"Are you the Ruthless Douluo?" Gu You simply looked up at him.

The Ruthless Douluo smiled slightly. "I never expected that any of the children outside would still remember me. Everyone thinks I, Cao Dezhi, have gone off to play around with life for some special reason. But who knows that sixty years ago, I truly understood the meaning of my life? For sixty years, I have remained here, venturing into the depths of the Abyss Plane eight times to explore its conditions. These sixty years have been fulfilling, but I have also come to understand even more how important the Blood God Legion is. I must stay here. Sixty years ago, I succeeded the previous Blood One, who came from the Temple of War, the Temple Master three generations ago. He only told me one sentence then: 'This place is lonely, yet proud. Life is lonely, but the soul is proud!'"

"Sixty years later, I wholeheartedly agree with his words. I am also proud of every warrior in the Blood God Legion. Their souls are proud. So, when Zang Xin told me he hoped you could come and experience this, I agreed. Because I hope you can also possess a proud soul. This is important for your future, and at the same time, it will allow you to see this world more clearly."

"I will, you are a hero. But for a country, you are not a hero. But I admire you because you have given so much to the mainland." Gu You nodded.

"Thank you!" Ruthless Douluo laughed heartily.

Back when he ruthlessly bestowed his title, who wasn't amazed? Who wasn't in awe? But times have changed, and more and more powerful young talents are emerging!

Their era has begun to end.

This is a true assessment of Gu You himself, and he has to admit it—sixty years of unwavering dedication to his duty, what a noble sentiment! Yes, his soul is proud.

Gu You took a deep breath. "Lord Wuqing, I may not yet fully understand your current level of cultivation, but I am willing to stay here and truly comprehend everything. I will dedicate myself to improving myself. Because I still have a grudge!"

The Ruthless Douluo smiled. "Everyone has their own responsibilities. Don't be too hasty or eager for quick results. The situation on the mainland is currently very chaotic, facing a series of problems and changes both internally and externally. What you need to do is first improve yourself and gain the qualifications to change what you want to change."

Gu You nodded seriously.

The Ruthless Douluo said, "You're quite good, which makes me very happy. Alright, I'll tell you about the true situation in the Abyss Plane so you can understand more."

"Yes."

The smile vanished from the Ruthless Douluo's face, and he said in a deep voice, "The Abyss Plane is far more powerful than you imagine. In that world, there are 108 layers of the abyss, each connected by a spatial passage. Each layer is inhabited by an emperor. Therefore, the Abyss Knights consist of 108 emperor-level beings, also known as the 108 Abyss Emperors. Among these 108 Abyss Emperors, the emperors of the first 36 layers are roughly equivalent to our human Title Douluos, and are not to be feared. The emperors of the middle 36 layers are equivalent to our Level Douluos, and are also manageable. But the last 36 layers are all powerhouses equivalent to our human Limit Douluos, or even stronger. Especially the emperors of the last 18 layers of the abyss, all of them are demigods. The Abyss Emperor of the 108th layer even possesses strength infinitely close to that of a god."

"The energy of the Abyss exists in a special form, completely different from the elemental energy of heaven and earth on our continent. For them, the elemental energy of heaven and earth in our world can be absorbed and transformed by devouring life to strengthen the entire plane. But the Abyss plane has nothing of use to us. Otherwise, the Federation might have been able to assemble a large army to wage war against the Abyss plane. Without any benefit, the Federation simply had the Blood God Legion guard the passage."

"The energy in the 108th layer of the Abyss is conserved. That is to say, in that plane, all the energy has a total amount, and this total amount does not change easily. If it decreases, it needs to be replenished by absorbing external energy. External energy is similar to our life energy..." (End of Chapter)
