The skeleton floated up into the air, and soon it reached the eyebrows of the water-shaped monster transformed from the Universe's Devouring Sea. Then the skeleton shattered, turned into powder, and drilled into it.
The monster that had been grasping at random unconsciously and instinctively before slowly stopped moving, closed its eyes, and for a long time—
The water monster transformed from the Universe Devouring Sea opened its eyes, and its entire water face turned into a human face. Although it had no hair, it could still be seen that this face once belonged to a handsome man.
"Who are you?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
The seven living true gods stopped running at the same time.
"Who am I?" The water-shaped man sneered, "I'm Shen Zilie!"
"Shen Zilie?" Wang Xiaohai felt that the name sounded familiar. He seemed to have heard it somewhere before. "You seem to be..."
"Former Domain Lord, Plane God Shen Zilie!" Zhenshen Jianwei exclaimed, "You're not dead yet?"
The surrounding gods flew back several steps. This was too unbelievable - the former domain lord was suppressed in the subsidiary space and even plotted to kill the true god of the star domain?
"Don't panic, everyone. This guy has been suppressed and sealed for billions of years. His strength has greatly declined and he is extremely weak. Let's join forces to get rid of him!" Wang Xiaohai comforted the gods.
"You're kidding! This is a Plane God. Even at his weakest, he can crush all of us True Gods with a single finger!" said a short True God. "Furthermore, he's taken on the body of the Cosmic Devouring Sea. We True Gods melt at the mere touch of him. We have no chance of defeating him."
This short true god said that he was short relative to other gods and Wang Xiaohai. In fact, the short god's body was as big as three moons. Standing next to other gods and Wang Xiaohai was like a cat standing next to a tiger.
"If you're scared, then run away!" True God Jian Wei said to the dwarf god. "Look at how Shen Zilie is chatting with us so leisurely. He must be confident. He's sure we can't escape! After all, the Plane God can instantly calculate our strength and the possibility of escape."
"Why are you imprisoned here?" Wang Xiaohai asked Shen Zilie, "Didn't the outside world say you were already dead?"
"Die?" Shen Zilie roared, "That despicable Ling Hua attacked me and trapped me here!"
"Did the Linghua Plane God sneak attack you?" Wang Xiaohai asked, "Why did he do that?"
"You all don't know this, but I'm Ling Hua's master. He's the one I designated as the next Plane God successor," Shen Zilie said. "I was still young then, only 2 billion years old, with 8 billion years left to live. He couldn't wait any longer, so he took action."
"What!" The gods present were shocked. This was not recorded in history. The history of the star field only recorded that the previous plane god had fallen, and Linghua True God, as the most powerful true god at the time, took over Shen Zilie's position and changed the Zilie star field into the Linghua star field.
"But you are a plane god, and he was just a true god at that time. No matter how he attacked, he could not defeat you!" Wang Xiaohai questioned Shen Zilie's words.
"Have you heard of plane weapons?" Shen Zilie asked Wang Xiaohai.
"Could it be a weapon more powerful than the star-level weapon, the Star God Demon-Slaying Cannon?" Wang Xiaohai reacted immediately.
"That's right. The divine planet where the Plane Gods reside in the main universe star field is a plane-level weapon called the Ultimate Destiny Rift Circle," Shen Zilie said. "This weapon is extremely powerful, requires life crystals to charge, and can only be used once every 100 million years. Originally, this Ultimate Destiny Rift Circle could only be used by Plane Gods, but that bastard Ling Hua deceived me, pretending to be an honest man to make me relax. Then, when I was about to leave for Odin Continent, he tricked me into sharing the password and permission to use the Ultimate Destiny Rift Circle with him to prevent the Plane Demon Lord Jordan from attacking the Zilie Star Field. I gave it to him without any doubt. I didn't expect this traitor to set a trap and activate the plane weapon. He attacked me when I returned from Odin Continent, took away my Plane Godhood, and became a Plane God!"
"Why didn't he kill you?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"Because I learned a secret technique called the Soul-Separation and Body-Taking Technique," Shen Zilie said proudly. "Without a plane-level attack targeting the soul, he couldn't kill me, so he could only seal and suppress me. He first summoned the Nine Nether Green Light to seal my soul, then summoned the Cosmic Body-Devouring Sea to suppress my body. Even the soul will slowly weaken, but that only takes tens of billions of years, so all he needed to do was sleep peacefully and wait for my death. But I refused to give in. I used the Soul-Separation and Body-Taking Technique to continuously attack. After a hundred million years, the sarcophagus containing me was cracked, and my spirit escaped through the crack, slowly invading the Cosmic Body-Devouring Sea above. It took a billion years to completely occupy it. Then, I created a clone from this Body-Devouring Sea, which drilled a hole in the abyss wall, bypassing the Nine Nether Green Light array and slowly drilling out. Because this clone had no divine power, only physical strength, it took billions of years for me to drill it out."
All the gods present looked around the abyss, searching for the entrance.
"Don't look for it anymore. I've blocked the entrance to the cave. Even if it weren't blocked, it's a very small hole. With your bodies, you can only fit a finger through it." Shen Zilie continued, "My clone will slowly recover its strength outside, and then find an opportunity to use the Soul Separation and Body Seizure Technique to seize Tushan's body. It's very simple. Although I no longer have the power of a Plane God, I still have the spirit and soul of a Plane God. Tushan is timid and cowardly, and is good for nothing except obedience, so he was defeated in the battle for my body. Then my clone lived outside in his body."
"Really? Now that you have lost the power of the plane, we still have a chance!" said the gods happily.
"No chance." Shen Zilie said, "My body in the Universe Devouring Sea is between the True God and the Plane God, which means I am invincible under the Plane God. At that time, I was only at my current strength. After I get out, I will keep devouring, and may even exceed the strength of the Plane God. That will be the end of Ling Hua!" His hatred for Ling Hua has been engraved in every moment of the past billions of years, deep in his bones.
"Then you can just settle the score with Ling Hua and spare us True Gods, can't you?" said the True God Jian Wei. "We have no grudge against you, so why are you trying to murder us?"
"Murder?" Shen Zilie said, "I just used you to break the seal on my body. Now that I've used you, you should leave in peace. Then I'll seal the cracks. That way it will be perfect. Ling Hua won't even know I escaped!"
"Are you trying to silence us?" Wang Xiaohai asked. "But the Nine-Faced Gods' territory has discovered something so serious, everyone must have known about it. The news must have leaked out long ago!"
"No, only the True Gods of the True God Forum know about this, and Gods won't casually tell anyone else. Furthermore, my posts on the forum are set to auto-delete. Besides, no one else knows about the rift in the God's territory because they don't even have the coordinates!" Shen Zilie said, "Only you True Gods know about this. I deliberately chose to take action on the day of the Life Crystal handover because I knew that Tian Linghua would definitely stay in his Divine Palace and not want to leave."
This guy has planned everything, one thing after another, and has made the gods go around in circles.
