Chapter 1073: I Will Recover What Was Lost (2)
"It's not your fault," Wu Yuan shook his head gently.
No one could have predicted the Abyssal invasion. After all, the universe and the Abyss were two sides of the same coin.
Macrocosms were places where essence power gathered during the evolution of the universe, allowing for the birth of vast numbers of living beings. But similarly, once a passage to the Abyss was torn open, the Abyssal race could directly infiltrate various macrocosms.
Because of this, whenever an Abyssal invasion erupted, it was always incredibly devastating.
"During an Abyssal invasion, the Abyssal side usually doesn't intend to occupy territory in outer space," the elderly man in black robes said. "After all, the Abyssal Devil race doesn't adapt well to the environment of outer space here.
“They come for the sake of slaughter. The flesh and blood of countless living beings, especially their souls, are nourishment to them. These will be completely devoured, just like in this catastrophe in the Gu Cang Macrocosm."
"The Overlord leading this invasion was Devil Emperor Xue Gu from the Abyss, though the one who actually attacked the Huanggu World should have been Sovereign Gui Chi under his command," the elderly man in black robes said. "This is the intelligence I've gathered."
As the Creation Emissary, the elderly man in black robes had access to information that Sovereign Yan Xin couldn't uncover.
"Devil Emperor Xue Gu? Sovereign Gui Chi?" A flash of killing intent gleamed in the depths of Wu Yuan's eyes as he committed these two names to memory.
In the Abyss, those who held the title of Overlord were referred to as Devil Emperors. As for Sovereigns, Astral Monarchs, and the like, their titles remained the same.
At the same time, information about Devil Emperor Xue Gu surfaced in Wu Yuan's mind, all sourced from the Eldritch Court's intelligence archives. The details weren't extensive, but it was enough to roughly gauge that he should be at the peak of the second-stage Overlord level.
