The enormous vertical pupil that blotted out the sky in mid-air, along with the countless tiny blood-red eyes surrounding it, suddenly vanished before everyone's eyes.

The entire sky returned to its chaotic, dark purplish-black color, as if the suffocating gaze from before had never existed.

The surrounding Abyss powerhouses all breathed more rapidly, their expressions varied, but the same thought was churning in their hearts.

What does that mean?

Did the wise ruler flee without a fight?

However, just as they were filled with doubt and uncertainty, a figure appeared silently in front of everyone.

The newcomer had long, translucent white hair that reached his waist, and his skin was as pale as frost. His face was handsome, but he carried an unsettling and eerie aura.

His eyes were completely black, without any white showing, like two endless dark wells, deep and cold, as if they could suck a person's soul into them.

His wide black robe fluttered without wind, and he was surrounded by an aura of the abyss so dense it was almost tangible.

Upon seeing this, the powerful beings of the surrounding abyss showed excitement once again; their Holy Lord had not abandoned them!

The figure that stepped forward at this moment was naturally the strongest being in the Abyss Plane, and the embodiment of the will of the entire Abyss Plane—the Abyss Saint King.

He held a long, almost transparent halberd in his hand, its body seemingly wreathed in bluish-purple flames.

That was the only super artifact in the Abyss Plane, the Heavenly Saint Abyss Splitting Halberd.

The Abyss Saint looked at Huo Yuhao with a solemn expression. His dark eyes showed no sign of backing down, only a resolute determination.

He knew that no matter how strong the human before him was, he had to face him.

Because he is the abyss itself, and the abyss is him, he has nowhere to escape.

The Abyss Saint King slowly walked forward, his dark eyes fixed on Huo Yuhao, and said in a deep voice, "When did the Douluo Continent produce a powerhouse like yourself?"

Sensing the rich and refined aura emanating from the Abyss Saint, a hint of surprise flashed across Huo Yuhao's eyes.

Although he knew that there must be powerful figures in the Abyss Plane, he did not expect that the strength of this Abyss Saint King had reached the level of a first-level god.

To have cultivated to such a level based on a devouring plane on the verge of collapse is truly a testament to exceptional talent.

But this also confirms one thing: the Abyss has devoured a considerable number of other planes and beings over the years.

Huo Yuhao did not answer the other party's question, but said in a calm tone, "You should know why I am here."

The Abyss Saint continued to walk slowly forward, his black robes swaying gently in the demonic mist. The Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd hung at his side, its blue-purple flames flickering and casting an unpredictable glow on his pale face.

He remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, "If I lead the Abyss away now and never set foot in the Douluo Plane again, would you be willing to leave?"

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the surrounding Abyss Emperor-level powerhouses changed drastically. Some looked unwilling, while others were filled with resentment, but none of them dared to voice their opposition.

The Holy King's decision is the decision of the entire Abyss.

Huo Yuhao simply shook his head slightly, his gaze firm, his tone leaving no room for negotiation: "Want to leave? Too late."

He paused, his voice turning somber: "For thousands of years, countless Soul Masters have sacrificed themselves because of the Abyss's invasion. This blood debt must be repaid by you."

Sensing the undisguised killing intent emanating from Huo Yuhao, the Abyss Saint knew that there was no room for negotiation.

Between the two, their fate was destined to be decided by life and death.

However, the conversation just now was both a genuine test by the Abyss Saint King and a deliberate attempt to stall for time.

He walked forward step by step, gradually shortening the distance between himself and Huo Yuhao.

He was now within a hundred meters of Huo Yuhao, a distance that was practically face-to-face for a powerhouse of his caliber.

The Abyss Saint King's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he roared, "Since that's the case, then there's no other way but to fight!"

Before he finished speaking, his figure blurred, as if tearing through space, and he covered a hundred meters in an instant.

The Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd pierced straight into Huo Yuhao's chest with the force of a thunderbolt. Wherever the halberd tip passed, even the space itself was scorched with black cracks.

A ferocious and ruthless expression appeared on the face of the Abyss Saint King, but he sneered inwardly.

The Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd's characteristic is that it ignores defense; no matter what protective measures are used, they are useless in front of this halberd.

Even if Huo Yuhao's strength is superior to his, as long as this halberd hits, there is absolutely no way he can escape.

He was secretly pleased with Huo Yuhao's "arrogance," which allowed him to get so close, giving him the perfect opportunity to make his move.

Even though there was a difference in strength between the two sides, the Abyss Saint King believed that even if this attack could not kill the opponent on the spot, it could at least severely injure him and turn the tide of the battle!

Huo Yuhao was not surprised by the Abyss Saint King's sudden all-out attack.

From the moment the other party deliberately shortened the distance little by little, he had already sensed the murderous intent hidden beneath the calm.

However, when he truly felt the power of the halberd thrusting towards him, Huo Yuhao's expression changed slightly.

Wherever the tip of the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd passed, even space itself was torn apart with fine cracks. Before that destructive sharpness even touched the body, it already made people's scalp tingle.

Although he did not understand the domineering characteristic of the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd that ignored defense, his God-King level instincts clearly issued a warning at this moment.

This attack cannot be taken head-on; it must not be allowed to touch you.

Despite his surprise, Huo Yuhao remained calm.

Suddenly, his brow split open, and one of his vertical pupils snapped open, its depths shimmering with a dazzling, star-like silver-white light.

Immediately afterwards, a condensed radiance shot out silently from the third eye, without a sound, yet seemingly carrying a will that transcended all laws, and instantly spread out.

Everything around them fell silent in that instant.

The demonic mist ceased to surge, the wind ceased to flow, and the Abyss Saint King remained frozen in mid-air, his ferocious face frozen in the instant his pupils contracted.

The powerful beings of the abyss further away, the churning flames of the rift beneath their feet, even the dust floating in the air...

Everything was put on pause, as if frozen in amber, with even the flow of time coming to an abrupt halt.

In the entire Abyss Plane, Huo Yuhao is the only one who can still move at this moment.

This is the spacetime freezing power that Huo Yuhao used by manipulating the Kunlun Mirror. Although it consumes a huge amount of divine power, it is absolutely worth it in the current situation.

He simply sidestepped and dodged the Heavenly Saint Rift Halberd, which was filled with boundless killing intent.

At the same time, this moment also gave Huo Yuhao a more direct understanding of the power of the Kunlun Mirror.

The power displayed by the bronze mirror he received as a child seemed to have far exceeded the scope of a super artifact.

Perhaps its origins and quality are far more unfathomable than he himself thought.
