Under the urging of the Abyss Dragon God, the gray-white flames released by the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp grew brighter and brighter, like a small sun, blinding the eyes.
But this was not the end.
The Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp, resembling a skull, floated slowly, gradually rising into the sky of the Abyss Divine Realm.
Immediately, it transformed from one into ten, becoming ten Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps arranged in a circle, emitting even more dazzling light.
Following this, countless gray-white flames shot out, targeting Zheng Dong and his pets.
It was like a rain of fire falling from the sky.
The gray-white flames were known as Soul-Snatching Ghostfire.
They caused great damage to consciousness and souls.
If one could not dodge in time, their consciousness and soul would be damaged, and in a state of daze, their consciousness and soul would be snatched away by the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp.
As Zheng Dong retreated, dodging the Soul-Snatching Ghostfire.
The Abyss Dragon God also pursued Zheng Dong, and with its continuous urging, the coverage area of the Abyss Divine Realm kept expanding outwards.
Before long, it was about to catch up to Zheng Dong, engulfing him within the Abyss Divine Realm.
Facing the crisis, Zheng Dong used spatial teleportation.
He and his pets, Xiao Zi, Youyou, and others, vanished from their original positions.
However, the Abyss Dragon God's speed was not slow either; it clung to Zheng Dong relentlessly, quickly catching up.
Although the Abyss Dragon God occupied the body of the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor, it was not unfamiliar with the body and controlled it with ease.
Ever since the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor received its inheritance, the Abyss Dragon God had been parasitizing its body, and thus was very familiar with its physical form.
However, the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's growth level was far inferior to its own, being only a Middle God, and was unable to unleash its true strength.
Facing the aggressive attacks of the Abyss Dragon God.
Zheng Dong also prepared to counterattack.
Otherwise, a single misstep could result in a severe injury, possibly endangering his life.
Therefore, Zheng Dong instructed Youyou to transform more God-level undead.
The corpses it had acquired in the Star God Realm were sealed within the Underworld Hell.
Now, they could finally be put to use.
Immediately, more God-level undead appeared.
Their strength was no weaker than the previous God-level undead.
These God-level undead ignored the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp and directly charged into the Abyss Divine Realm, launching fierce attacks.
Although the Abyss Dragon God had many methods, they were limited by the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body and its growth level, preventing it from unleashing its full potential.
Soon, the Abyss Dragon God fell into a disadvantage under the siege of the God-level undead.
The Abyss Dragon God frowned.
It looked at the God-level undead appearing around it.
Many of these undead were familiar to it.
They were rulers or supreme gods from the Mythological Era.
What had this brat done?
To have so many corpses of Mythological Era rulers in his possession.
The Abyss Dragon God became very interested in Zheng Dong.
If the opportunity arose, it would want to control Zheng Dong and make him its subordinate.
Zheng Dong was unaware of the Abyss Dragon God's thoughts.
He summoned all his pets and also launched an attack on the Abyss Dragon God.
Jingjing fired numerous God-forbidden bombs.
Before the God-annihilation bombs were created, the God-forbidden bombs were the most powerful high-tech weapons Jingjing mastered.
Pets like Xiao Qing and Yin Xue, due to their low growth levels, could hardly injure the Abyss Dragon God even when unleashing their ultimate-tier skills.
Zheng Dong summoned them merely for them to witness this level of combat.
Hoping they would grow quickly.
Zheng Dong himself also used Bloodline Revival.
Beasts appeared one after another, pouncing on the Abyss Dragon God.
The Abyss Dragon God was forced into a passive defensive position. Before long, it was pierced through the body by a God-level undead, suffering a severe injury.
Seizing this opportunity, the other God-level undead also launched fierce attacks.
The Abyss Dragon God retreated repeatedly but showed no fear, its eyes calm, revealing no trace of apprehension.
Zheng Dong knew that the Abyss Dragon God possessed divine skills, such as "Restoration to Original State."
As long as it was not dead, no matter how severe the injury to its body, it could recover.
Therefore, severely injuring the Abyss Dragon God held little significance.
He had to find a way to kill it.
Or, at least weaken its combat power.
Zheng Dong looked at the Abyss Heart and the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp.
It was precisely because of the existence of these two divine artifacts that the Abyss Dragon God could withstand the attacks of the numerous God-level undead.
If these God-level undead exhausted their strength.
Zheng Dong himself would be in trouble next.
Thus, Zheng Dong had the Divine Beasts, such as the Candle Dragon and Vermilion Bird, condensed through Bloodline Revival, contend for the divine artifacts held by the Abyss Dragon God.
Taking advantage of the Abyss Dragon God's severe injury.
Beasts flew towards the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps floating in the sky of the Abyss Divine Realm.
The Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp also had a significant weakness: it could not deal with puppets without consciousness or souls, nor with elemental projections or avatars.
Naturally, it could not snatch the consciousness and souls of these Divine Beasts.
This was because these Divine Beasts had no independent consciousness or souls; they were condensed by Zheng Dong using the skill Bloodline Revival.
However, there were ten Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps floating in the sky of the Abyss Divine Realm, and the Candle Dragon, Vermilion Bird, and other Divine Beasts could not distinguish the real ones from the fakes.
With no other option, they decided to take them all to try their luck.
The Divine Beast Candle Dragon mobilized the power of time laws, causing the surrounding time to slow down.
The movement speed of the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps floating in the air gradually decreased.
Subsequently, a group of Divine Beasts pounced, grabbed the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps, and rushed out of the Abyss Divine Realm.
The entire action was swift.
But it was still discovered by the Abyss Dragon God.
It urged the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp, attempting to break free from the Divine Beasts.
Unfortunately, the Divine Beasts were numerous and powerful.
The Abyss Dragon God, besieged by God-level undead, could not urge the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp to escape Zheng Dong's Divine Beasts.
The Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp unleashed even fiercer soul-snatching flames, attempting to burn these Divine Beasts.
Before long, the Earth Titan holding the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp could not bear it and threw it to the White Tiger.
The White Tiger bit down on it and continued to run back.
It did not last long either before being thrown to the Black Tortoise.
In this manner, by borrowing strength, they brought the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp out of the Abyss Divine Realm.
After escaping the Abyss Divine Realm, the power of the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp significantly diminished.
However, Zheng Dong still dared not take the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp himself.
If his consciousness and soul were accidentally snatched, it would be troublesome.
He instructed Youyou to activate the Underworld Hell.
Beasts directly sent the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamps into the Underworld Hell, where they were sealed in independent spaces by Youyou.
Instantly, the Abyss Dragon God could no longer sense the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp, nor could it control it.
"Damn it!"
The Abyss Dragon God glared deeply at Zheng Dong.
It had been outmaneuvered by a weak human.
It let out an enraged roar and once again used its divine skill, "Restoration to Original State."
Its severely injured body recovered once more.
Immediately, it unleashed various divine skills to counterattack.
Unfortunately, the God-level undead transformed by Youyou were not easy to deal with.
If it were not for the Abyss Heart it still possessed, it would have been finished long ago.
However, Zheng Dong dared not be careless.
This was because the corpse of the first ruler transformed into an undead had exhausted its strength and fallen to the ground.
If the Abyss Dragon God could hold on until the end, and all the God-level undead ran out of power, it could turn the tide.
Zheng Dong accelerated his attacks and set his sights on the Abyss Heart.
He had to find a way to quickly seize the Abyss Heart as well, otherwise, he didn't know how long the Abyss Dragon God could hold out.
He instructed Xiao Zi to condense numerous clones and charge into the Abyss Divine Realm, using its Infinite Devour.
He wanted to devour the Abyss Heart above the Abyss Dragon God's head.
Unfortunately, the effect was not ideal.
The Abyss Dragon God also became more vigilant as a result.
It held the Abyss Heart in its mouth.
As if clutching a dragon pearl.
It became even more difficult to pry open the Abyss Dragon God's mouth and seize the Abyss Heart.
With no other option, Zheng Dong released his bloodline clone, the Arctic Ice Demon, from his beast-taming space.
The Arctic Ice Demon, wielding the Frozen Ice Cone, delved into the Abyss Divine Realm and attacked the Abyss Dragon God.
Countless ice cones densely pierced towards the Abyss Dragon God.
The Abyss Dragon God shook its body, shattering the ice cones.
However, it was soon frozen by the extreme low temperature released by the shattered ice cones.
It widened its eyes and looked at the Frozen Ice Cone in the Arctic Ice Demon's hand.
This was actually a top-tier divine artifact?
Seizing this opportunity, all the God-level undead launched even fiercer attacks on the Abyss Dragon God.
Instantly, blood splattered, and the Abyss Dragon God's body suffered severe damage.
However, the Abyss Dragon God quickly broke free from being frozen and escaped.
It lunged to bite the Arctic Ice Demon.
If it could empower the Frozen Ice Cone in the Arctic Ice Demon's hand, its strength would greatly increase, and it might be able to turn the tide.
Facing the Abyss Dragon God's attack, the Arctic Ice Demon had no choice but to retreat while urging the Frozen Ice Cone.
Although the Frozen Ice Cone was a top-tier divine artifact, the Arctic Ice Demon's growth level was too low, and it could not fully activate the Frozen Ice Cone to unleash its strongest attack power.
Seeing this, Zheng Dong instructed Ling'er to release countless clones to assist the Arctic Ice Demon.
The massive Elemental World Tree trembled, and dense clone seeds, like a mist, swept towards the Abyss Dragon God.
The clone seeds landed on the Abyss Dragon God, quickly parasitizing it, continuously absorbing its power, and growing into towering trees.
As a result, the Abyss Dragon God felt its strength rapidly diminishing.
The consumption was even greater than when it used the divine skill "Restoration to Original State."
The immense consumption made it somewhat unbearable.
After all, this body belonged to the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor, which was not very strong.
Consequently, its speed slowed down.
It was once again surrounded and attacked by the pursuing God-level undead.
Seizing this opportunity, the Arctic Ice Demon could once again activate the Frozen Ice Cone.
The crystalline Frozen Ice Cone, like a brilliant diamond, erupted with terrifying power, transforming into countless ice cones that surged towards the Abyss Dragon God like a tide.
Under the attacks of the God-level undead, the Abyss Dragon God could not dodge these ice cones.
The ice cones, like bullets, pierced into its body, releasing extreme low temperatures and quickly freezing it.
Subsequently, the Divine Beasts such as the Candle Dragon and Vermilion Bird, which were not far from the Abyss Dragon God, took action to seize the Abyss Heart.
The Abyss Heart, held in the Abyss Dragon God's mouth, was also pried out by them.
Immediately, the Candle Dragon bit down on it and ran back.
It was at this moment that the Abyss Dragon God shattered the ice on its body and returned to normal.
It had only been frozen for about a second, and unexpectedly, the Abyss Heart was stolen.
It was furious and wanted to catch up to the Candle Dragon.
However, it was surrounded by the God-level undead.
The Candle Dragon and other Divine Beasts threw the Abyss Heart into the Underworld Hell and then returned to the battlefield.
Having lost the Abyss Heart, the Abyss Divine Realm also disappeared.
The Abyss Dragon God could no longer withstand the attacks of the God-level undead.
More than half of its tail was torn apart by the God-level undead.
The Abyss Dragon God cried out in pain, its eyes wide.
With a ferocious expression, the Abyss Dragon God let out a fierce roar at Zheng Dong.
"Bastard, you wait! I will skin you alive sooner or later!"
Having lost divine artifacts repeatedly, the Abyss Dragon God had lost the confidence to continue fighting.
Even with the divine skill "Restoration to Original State," it could not recover indefinitely.
After all, "Restoration to Original State" consumed a great deal of energy, and once the strength within its body was depleted, it would only lead to death.
It did not want to start over after finally occupying the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body.
In fact, the Abyss Dragon God, like the Starry Sky Supreme, had died long ago.
However, it had left behind numerous resurrection methods.
Among them were soul fragments within the Abyss Heart, waiting for an opportunity to recover.
When the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor obtained the Abyss Heart, it took the opportunity to parasitize its body, using the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's power to regain consciousness.
However, to truly resurrect, it still needed to employ certain methods, which were quite troublesome.
Moreover, the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor had always been unwilling to hand over control of its body to it.
Even after regaining consciousness, it could only parasitize the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body and wait for an opportunity.
Now that it had obtained the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body, it was no longer a consciousness parasitizing the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body, but could only observe everything, unable to do anything.
It could use the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor's body to make plans for its own resurrection.
Therefore, it was unwilling to continue fighting Zheng Dong to the death.
After all, without the divine artifacts in its possession, it saw no hope of victory.
Subsequently, the Abyss Dragon God unleashed its divine skill, "Void Crossing."
Void Crossing allowed it to travel further than spatial teleportation.
The Abyss Dragon God's body gradually disappeared, as if it had plunged into the void.
Zheng Dong wanted to pursue, but he couldn't catch up.
However, he was somewhat unwilling to let the Abyss Dragon God escape like this.
Therefore, he decided to self-destruct the God-level undead.
Once these God-level undead exhausted their power, they would be of no use.
Rather than keeping them for a few more days, it was better to self-destruct them to severely injure the Abyss Dragon God.
Instantly, one God-level undead was the first to detonate its shattered divine personality fragments.
Following this, like a fuse, it ignited the surrounding God-level undead.
The terrifying explosive force tore open the void.
The Abyss Dragon God, whose body was not entirely within the void, was directly blown apart.
The Abyss Dragon God trembled all over, nearly passing out.
Severely injured, it could not escape far even with Void Crossing.
Zheng Dong, with Xiao Zi, Ling'er, and other pets, pursued.
They followed the Abyss Dragon God's aura all the way.
Unfortunately, the Abyss Dragon God was quite cunning.
Zheng Dong could not find the Abyss Dragon God and was outmaneuvered.
Zheng Dong frowned.
He felt that he had left behind a major problem and that he needed to condense his divine personality and increase his strength as soon as possible.
Now, with the Abyss Heart and the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp in his possession, he might be able to find a way to refine these two divine artifacts.
Then, he could use the power of the Abyss Heart to assist him in condensing his divine personality.
However, these two top-tier divine artifacts, the Abyss Heart and the Abyss Soul-Snatching Lamp, did not look easy to refine, and Zheng Dong also worried that the Abyss Dragon God might have left some countermeasures on these two artifacts.
He did not want to end up in the same predicament as the Abyss Dragon Whale Emperor.
