Chapter 98: The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss

Ades Castro's account kept everyone discussing for a long time.

After more than ten minutes, the group gradually quieted down.

"That treasure that can help us break through is indeed a good thing, but we must not underestimate the enemy. After all, from the information obtained from that evil god, this is a rather troublesome creature. Even if we have all been injected with the source gene fluid of the Erosion Source and can break free from their all-around suppression, the situation won't be too optimistic."

"In fact, it might be even worse than we imagine."

"But no matter what, this is a tough battle."

Then Ades Castro's gaze swept across the entire room.

"The first step we need to take is to seal off that exit."

"Currently, this Erosion Source black hole passage is already over three hundred meters wide, and if you observe carefully enough, you can see that the passage is still expanding."

"From the size of this passage, everyone can also sense that the Erosion Source creatures coming through here won't be small in size."

"The destruction they cause will be extremely alarming. Fortunately, we are located in the extreme northern ice field, so we don't have to worry about the battle affecting ordinary people."

"But the problem is, if they keep coming through the passage one after another and we have no effective means to block them, a small number might be fine, but if there are many—say thirty to fifty at once—each of us will have to deal with one or two. If their strength is even greater, the casualties will likely be on our side."

"We might even be completely wiped out." Ades Castro's voice was hoarse and low.

"Even a dozen or twenty won't be easy to deal with."

"But if we use some powerful sealing method to trap those creatures inside the passage and release them one by one to kill, that would be very convenient."

"Even if we don't block them all inside the passage, it would be excellent to construct some peculiar sealing arrays in the surrounding space to trap them here."

After speaking, Ades Castro's gaze swept over each person one by one.

"Does anyone here have similar means? Don't hold back now; bring them out!"

"In this battle, the greater the merit, the more qualified one is to obtain the energy core. I think everyone should have no objection to that."

Greater merit, greater reward—that was only natural, and obviously no one would object.

"I have a very good sealing item, but its side effects are a bit severe. I wonder if you all are willing to let me use it." At this moment, a voice sounded from the crowd.

"Babo, you're not thinking of bringing out that pollution source of yours again, are you? That thing can infect ordinary supernaturals and turn them into supernatural zombies, but it might not be useful against these peculiar invaders." Someone laughed.

"Of course not. This sealing item is a destruction-level powerful one. Its name is 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss.'"

The supernatural named Babo spoke with great interest.

"This is a very terrifying thing. And its potential is quite frightening."

"Since I obtained this treasure, I have never fully released it."

"Once 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' is unsealed, it can form a three-dimensional spatial swamp in this area. Its form can be manipulated by me. In the swamp, many powerful swamp tentacles will appear. Once caught, even a first-rank divine envoy unleashing divine power would find it hard to break free."

"Using this sealing item to block the exit, once those huge creatures come out, they will directly crash into it. With their massive size, if they get stuck, it will be very difficult for them to escape."

"This way, we can calmly kill the invaders one by one."

"We can even use this bizarre swamp to block the exit, making it hard for subsequent invaders to come out in large numbers in a short time."

This sealing item was indeed not bad.

Gunie nodded inwardly upon hearing this.

"Can this sealing item block the three-hundred-meter exit?" someone asked.

"If I adjust its form, blocking not just a three-hundred-meter exit but even a thousand-meter one is no problem. It might be a bit thinner, but still over a hundred meters thick, which is enough." The divine envoy named Babo said confidently.

"In that case, what are you waiting for? Bring it out!" Someone was already urging.

"Heh heh..." Babo chuckled.

"As I said earlier, the side effects of 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' are quite severe."

"Once 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' is released, it will devour all living things around it to continuously strengthen itself."

"If we deploy it here and it devours some Erosion Source creatures, it will grow larger. If it can absorb the energy cores of those Erosion Source creatures and keep growing..."

"I'm afraid... none of us will be able to reseal it."

"At that point, 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' itself will become a terrifying sealing item that even we will find hard to deal with, and it will keep moving on its own to find things to devour."

Babo's words made everyone's expressions turn serious.

This was indeed a sealing item that harmed both the enemy and oneself.

If this 'Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' were fed into a terrifying monster that everyone could hardly contend with, it would likely slowly creep and expand, becoming difficult to resolve.

In many ancient scrolls of supernatural worlds, quite a few supernatural worlds were destroyed by the spread of such bizarre and terrifying sealing items.

Hearing that 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' was so formidable, everyone was momentarily undecided.

After all, one of everyone's goals was to obtain the core energy inside the Erosion Source creatures. If the corpses and core energy were all devoured by 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss,' everyone would end up with nothing, and they would also nurture a 'real daddy'—who could withstand that?

Just as everyone was hesitating whether to release 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss,'

"Release 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss'!" Gunie's voice suddenly rang out.

Hmm?

Everyone turned to look.

"Lord Gunie, are you sure you want to release it?" Babo turned his head and asked.

Gunie's words carried weight; Babo did not dare to take them lightly.

Gunie did not beat around the bush and directly nodded: "Just release it to block the exit. After the Erosion Source creatures trapped in the swamp are killed, I naturally have a way to pull it out."

"Are you sure?" Babo frowned slightly.

"Sure."

Gunie nodded very affirmatively.

Whether it was Gunie's World Essence or the power of the Blood Sea, they were second to none in terms of suppression, sealing, and even sweeping and grabbing things.

Not to mention anything else, for a sealing item of this thousand-meter range, if Gunie's Blood Sea bloomed, it could directly swallow it in one gulp.

Seeing Gunie so certain, Babo nodded and flew toward the Erosion Source black hole passage, then began to deploy 'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss.'

"Everyone, does anyone else have other corresponding restrictive measures?"

At this moment, Ades Castro spoke again.

'The Bizarre Swamp from the Abyss' only had a certain blocking power; it might not be able to hold them back.

"I have a complete set of large-scale supernatural energy arrays that can seal off this area. During battle, with my manipulation, I can immobilize those huge creatures. Even if I can't completely immobilize them, I can greatly limit their movement speed, allowing us to kill them more calmly."

"That's good."

After some discussion, that divine envoy began constructing the large-scale supernatural energy array in the distance.

Then a few others also had corresponding measures. At this moment, everything that could be used was put to use.

Amidst everyone's preparations, Gunie's gaze fell on the Erosion Source black hole passage that appeared hazy and illusory in the air.

"It's a pity it's not a physical passage and cannot be entered; otherwise, I could go in and explore."

After a while, everyone finished their preparations.

"Everyone..." Ades Castro glanced at the still-expanding Erosion Source black hole passage.

"Currently, this passage is still expanding on a large scale. We don't know when it will stop."

"We will station here. Once the Erosion Source creatures invade, we can counterattack immediately."

No one had any objections to this.

So, everyone flew to the surrounding corners, preparing to find a suitable spot to sit in meditation and wait for the Erosion Source creatures to descend.

Gunie leaped and flew toward a corner.

Then he sat cross-legged on a patch of frozen cloud of moderate size.

Originally, this frozen cloud was tumbling rapidly in the air amid the howling wind.

But as he sat on it, the frozen cloud instantly stabilized in the air like a rock.

After setting up some arrangements around him, Gunie entered a state of quiet meditation.

After advancing to the Saint rank, Gunie's carrying capacity had also greatly increased.

Now, Gunie also needed to start increasing his runes further.
