The giant hands transformed from the black waves were like iron chains, tightly grasping the feet of the gods above the sea and pulling them down with all their strength.
Colorful divine light burst out from outside the bodies of the gods, and they flew towards the abyss with all their might.
"Bang—bang—"
One after another, true gods were pulled into the sea, splashing large amounts of black water!
The Black Sea under the abyss was boiling, with countless bubbles surging out, as if steaming the gods.
"What's the origin of this Black Sea?" Wang Xiaohai, who was watching from the edge, was shocked. "It looks so scary!"
"I don't know either. Could this be the third level of the Black Sea's defensive formation?" True God Jian Wei's voice was filled with fear. "What kind of formation can swallow a True God like the sea?"
Several True Gods who failed to catch up to the surface of the sea flew back, among them was True God Ren Chong. His expression could not be discerned in the darkness, but from his movements one could see that he was in a very embarrassed state.
"It's the Universe Devouring Sea!"
A True God explained to the fleeing True Gods, "I saw something on a strange, random website on the cosmic web. This sea typically exists within black holes, expanding by absorbing energy and life. If it becomes extremely large, consciousness will arise. It will then quietly move across the starry sky, opening its massive black mouth like a giant monster and swallowing an entire galaxy in one gulp."
"A star system?" asked the True God Jian Wei.
"It's not a star system, it's a spiral galaxy, a galaxy with hundreds of billions of stars!" replied the true God.
"Really? Is there such a huge body-devouring sea? Wouldn't its movement be discovered?" Wang Xiaohai asked.
"Because it's completely dark, people observing with light can't see it," the true god said. "And the range of energy sensing is limited. Usually, by the time you reach the sensing distance, it's too late. The Cosmic Devouring Sea moves extremely fast, close to the speed of light, and the speed of spiritual perception is the speed of light, so by the time you feel it approaching, you're already dead!"
"Who's controlling it to come here and hide?" said the True God Jian Wei. "This cosmic sea of devouring bodies isn't very large. My true body might not be able to control it, but a Plane God should be able to. Even the most ferocious beast has a way to subdue it, either by force or by cunning."
“There are only two people who can control it and hide in this star field.” Wang Xiaohai said, “The former or current Plane God of this star field.”
"Are you talking about Domain Lord Shen Zilie or Domain Lord Ling Hua?" Jian Wei was shocked. "What secrets are hidden in this Black Sea? Why did they seal it in an auxiliary space and set up so many prohibitions and protections?"
"I'm guessing it's not a good thing," Wang Xiaohai said. "If it were a good thing, they would have carried it with them without burying it. So this place must have something that the Plane God hates and cannot kill! This thing has been constantly breaking free over the endless years, pushing the suppressed green light out of the plane and causing a tearing effect on the main space!"
"What should we do? Let's quickly escape from this abyss!" said a true god as he flew upwards.
The other gods responded one after another and flew upwards.
Above the endless darkness, the tiny white dot, as small as a mosquito's leg, gradually grew larger - the abyss was too deep, so looking from below, the exit appeared narrow and small.
But when the gods had just flown halfway, the white light spots above them suddenly turned black, as if blocked by something!
"Not good!" Zhenshen Jian Wei shouted, "The exit is blocked!"
"Who is blocking the way?" The gods who were halfway through their flight started to panic.
"It must be that a portion of the Universe Devouring Sea has separated to block the exit!" Wang Xiaohai said, "If my guess is correct, there must be a button in the mysterious house that awakens the Universe Devouring Sea, and then it was activated by the True God Tushan."
"You mean we have no way to escape?" True God Jian Wei could no longer maintain a calm tone. Even a True God would panic when faced with the danger of death. "Why would True God Tushan do this?"
"I don't know the exact truth, I can only speculate." Wang Xiaohai pondered for a moment and said, "The true god Tushan is a bit strange. I guess he has been replaced by an evil body and is no longer the original Tushan. His mission is to release the monster in the Black Sea and let it attack the gods!"
"But what's the point of attacking the gods?" asked the True God Jian Wei. "What's Tushan's purpose in doing this?"
"I'm guessing the Cosmic Devouring Sea was used to suppress that thing, but over time, it came under its control, perhaps becoming a host for its consciousness. Anyway, the True God just now said that the Cosmic Devouring Sea wouldn't develop consciousness until it grew to a very large size, and could only unconsciously devour energy and light. In that case, I guess the suppressed thing had some method or secret technique to seal off its energy, allowing it to maintain consciousness and wait for an opportunity to infiltrate the Devouring Sea and control it," Wang Xiaohai said. "Eventually, this thing or some monster transformed into the Devouring Sea, corroding space and creating cracks. It then created an avatar to control the True God Tushan, having him post on the forum to lure you in. The avatar then posted an observer at the entrance to the plane passage, guiding everyone entering towards the divine realm. Otherwise, how could an ordinary angel observer know the coordinates of such a secret divine realm? The answer is that he's the monster's avatar! Tushan, the originally timid True God, is always the first to act, which only makes sense if he's been controlled. I guess this Cosmic Devouring Sea will be able to leave this dimension after swallowing us!"
Wang Xiaohai suddenly had an epiphany and finally figured out a series of things.
“Pah pah pah pah——”
A series of applause rang out, and Ren Chong Zhenshen approached Wang Xiaohai: "You are right, so you can die now!"
"Ren Chong, have you been controlled as well?" Zhenshen Jian Wei was shocked. "Are you going to attack us?"
"No, this is a personal grudge between me and this little bastard. Stay out of it," said Ren Chong Zhenshen. "I can't escape anyway, so I might as well kill him in advance to relieve my hatred!"
"The Universe Devouring Sea is coming." A true god reminded them that there are only eight true gods left.
I saw the Black Sea below slowly rising, and then a head made of water emerged from the water, followed by the neck... shoulders... waist...
The last incomparably gigantic black water man stood on the surface of the Soul Devouring Sea in the Universe, tens of millions of miles tall. All the true gods the size of planets were only as big as the black spot on the tip of the nose of the Black Body Devouring Sea man - unfortunately, the Black Body Devouring Sea man had no black spots or moles.
At this moment, the Body-Eating Sea Man raised his hands and grabbed upwards, facing the gods as if he was catching a flying fly.
"Messenger, die!" Ren Chong's pagoda with nearly ten thousand layers flashed with light and smashed towards Wang Xiaohai with astonishing power!
"Hidden Sky Sword Technique!"
Wang Xiaohai drew out the gray sword and stabbed it into the void.
