Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely Chapter 2002 - 1072: Sky Opening and Earth Creation

The arrival of three Dark Quasi-Emperors unleashed a suffocating wave of dread, an unrestrained power that mimicked the very essence of the Abyss. Even with six Divine Kings united against them, the pressure weighing on them was immense.

This operation, though fraught with peril, had been designed with a layer of redundancy. By mobilizing four elite Conceptual Gods alongside eight Divine Kings, they assumed that even Emperor Cang, backed by allies, could be suppressed.

Their logic was simple: if Emperor Cang’s cohorts retained their senses, their raw strength could not possibly exceed his own.

Yet, sensing the overwhelming, savage aura radiating from Emperor Yu, and observing Emperor Hong—who appeared the most fragile but wielded the profound Way of Cause and Effect—the Divine Kings realized they had severely miscalculated.

Though Emperor Hong might be handled individually by any single Divine King, his true purpose was clearly to act as a formidable support.

The Chaos energy roiling off Emperor Cang combined with the fearsome vigor of Emperor Yu to create a strength that seemed to rival the Conceptual Gods themselves.

Emperor Yu, in particular, had positioned himself with tactical precision, effectively sealing off their path of retreat.

"The three of you..."

"The situation has grown far more precarious than we anticipated."

"Stargazing, have you not arrived yet?"

The projection representing the All Gods Temple began to grow impatient. However, neither Stargazing nor Chaos provided a response.

They were the furthest contingent, yet equipped with the backing of the 'God of Death,' they should have arrived long ago. This silence left the remaining Divine Kings feeling deeply unsettled.

"I have reached out for reinforcements and informed the Nephite Realm of our predicament."

"Unfortunately, even the Supreme God Lord of Nephilim refuses to depart his domain, claiming he will only intervene if the conflict spills near his border..."

With no exterior help coming, they were forced to resolve this crisis through their own merit.

The goal had shifted: survival and a managed retreat had replaced their original objectives.

At least the excess in their initial deployment was paying off. While losing the upper hand, they were not yet facing total annihilation. Still, the cost of escaping would be staggering.

"Everyone, the strategy must change."

"Prioritize survival; we cannot afford further losses."

"Indeed, put aside previous grudges—none of us can afford to hold back now..."

The countenances of the Divine Kings grew grim. A total defeat here would shatter the foundations of the Current World.

Driven by both public duty and private interest, they knew they had to break through with everything they had, discarding all caution.

"Heh, what’s this? Are you plotting your departure?"

Emperor Yu brandished the Emperor Slayer Divine Spear while blocking the exit, his eyes fixed on the three Conceptual Gods with a predatory hunger.

"Such untainted Divine Souls. I knew this world’s foundation was hiding something exquisite!"

The three Quasi-Emperors recognized the power of the Conceptual Gods as a significant hurdle. However, because these beings were so far removed from the Current World, their true combat power remained significantly suppressed.

If the Quasi-Emperors could secure a victory here, it would be a monumental triumph.

"Consuming them might just be the key to shattering my own bottlenecks! This is a war for orthodoxy!"

Emperor Yu’s aura surged as he surveyed his prey with arrogance.

"I have no interest in you Divine Kings. Should you choose to retreat now, I might just let you live."

While Divine Kings possess high status and mastery over Abyssal Bottom Rules, allowing them to contend with Dark Quasi-Emperors, they were currently outclassed by the dark-transformed strength of their foes.

Hearing this, the Divine Kings fell into a heavy silence. It seemed, at least on the surface, that the offer was genuine.

The Emperors, too, were hesitant to manufacture more complications than necessary.

"Everyone, tell me your thoughts. We must advance or retreat as one, making a collective choice."

The Heaven Pillar God King spoke with a stern expression; he was the only one present seemingly capable of enduring a direct confrontation with the three Emperors. Yet, after his first clash with Emperor Cang, he understood that while he could engage them, it would inevitably lead to the destruction of his own Divine Body.

"If we commit everything to a desperate struggle, victory is not impossible," the Demon Emperor suggested.

The Demon Lord remained silent for a moment before pointing out the underlying issue: "Stargazing is still unresponsive. We do not know if they were ambushed or if they are harboring their own agendas."

Taichu finally opened his eyes and added, "Let us speak frankly: many of us here had hidden motives from the beginning. A weakened World Will might actually serve our own interests..."

Taichu’s blunt admission stifled the air.

"Is that why you allowed us to engage in this location?!" the Demon Emperor roared.

Despite his monstrous appearance, his voice dripped with righteous anger. As the Divine Kings began to bicker amongst themselves, the three Dark Quasi-Emperors simply watched with mocking amusement, content to let them tear themselves apart.

"Heh, pathetic creatures, truly arrogant for beings of such meager origins."

Taichu sneered, unfazed by the Demon Emperor’s outburst, and continued: "Yes, I chose this site to curb the World Will's pride. You all knew this in your hearts, even if you refuse to admit it. But things have turned dire—decide for yourselves. Will you stay here to die, or will you retreat and live to scheme another day?"
