Galaxy.
The spawns' main warship.
The spawns' engineers had worked for a long ti, yet they were still unable to detect any traces of their kin or fluctuations from the Hell rift's energy.
The mbers of the God Clan had also been awakened and gathered together in the main control room.
After sensing for a mont, one of the God Clan mbers opened his eyes and shook his head. "Nothing was found."
Upon hearing that the Eyes of Hell, together with the entire Blue Star, had disappeared, everyone's expressions turned grim.
Xius was burning with rage, glaring viciously at the Spawn Consul.
"Tell ! What happened! Didn't you guarantee that nothing would go wrong?!"
How many tis had it been now?
Failure after failure, humiliation after humiliation.
Was crushing an ant really that difficult?
Patrio tried to calm him. "Xius, calm down. The aura emitted by the Eyes of Hell was extrely strong. Even if it was forcibly teleported away through spatial abilities, as long as it wasn't taken too far, there was no reason for even us to be unable to perceive the Eyes of Hell."
Another mber of the God Clan asked, "Elder, are you saying that Fang Heng set up an energy barrier to block our perception?"
"Indeed, that possibility existed."
Everyone imdiately fell into silence.
But how had Fang Heng known about the Eyes of Hell?
Their trap had clearly been set up flawlessly, yet it had still been easily solved by Fang Heng.
They did not believe there had been an internal leak.
Had the information leaked from within the spawns?
Xius looked toward the spawns, the look in his eyes growing increasingly hostile.
"News from the divine realm has arrived."
Suddenly, Patrio raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet. His expression swiveled solemn as he closed his eyes and communicated with the God Realm.
Monts later, Patrio slowly opened his eyes, his expression becoming even heavier.
"Sothing has happened. Extrely abnormal fluctuations have appeared in Hell," Patrio said in a low voice. "The God Realm suspects that it was caused by unrest in the source power of Hell."
Hearing this, the expressions of the God Clan mbers subtly changed.
Hell was extrely dangerous, so the God Realm had always maintained surveillance over it.
However, that surveillance was limited to power perception; they had no way of knowing what exactly was happening inside Hell.
As Xius listened, a bad premonition imdiately rose in his heart, and he reacted at once.
"It must be Fang Heng! I get it now! He must have taken the Eyes of Hell into Hell! The disturbance in Hell is absolutely related to him!"
Xius said anxiously, "Elder, we must go to Hell and stop Fang Heng!"
Another mber of the God Clan also suddenly realized sothing and said, "Elder, I understand now. No wonder we couldn't find the Eyes of Hell. Thinking about it, the power emitted by the Eyes of Hell would be hard to hide, but if Fang Heng hid the Eyes of Hell in Hell, then that power would easily be concealed by Hell's aura."
Patrio gently shook his head. "No, the Eyes of Hell alone shouldn't be able to cause such abnormal fluctuations in the source of Hell."
"Let's put this matter aside for now. The God Realm has already dispatched another team to investigate Hell. They are currently preparing for teleportation. Once they enter Hell and conduct their investigation, we'll know what's going on. For now, we need to focus our main efforts on finding the Eyes of Hell."
Upon hearing this, Xius grew even more anxious. "Elder, we can't wait any longer! You don't understand Fang Heng! The Eyes of Hell have gone missing, and at the sa ti, the source of Hell has undergone abnormal changes. There's no such coincidence! I guarantee this has sothing to do with him!"
Everyone looked at one another, feeling that what Xius uttered did make so sense.
The problem was that opening a passage to Hell required a considerable amount of power.
Xius spoke earnestly, persuading them. "Elder, staying here won't help us find the Eyes of Hell. We might as well go into Hell and take a look ourselves. If the Eyes of Hell really were taken back to Hell by Fang Heng, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Patrio closed his eyes and thought for a mont, then nodded. "Very well. We'll go and take a look. If we confirm that the Eyes of Hell are unrelated to this matter, we'll return."
With that, Patrio raised his hand. The runestone on his wrist blossod with a faint glow, and he used his finger to tear open a spatial rift in midair.
A twelve-mber God Clan squad swiftly entered through the rift passage.
The mont Xius passed through the passage and entered, he imdiately felt the surging fluctuations of Hell's power coming from the lower layers of hell.
Such terrifying hell power!
Was this the abnormality of hell's source?
Xius frowned slightly.
This was bad.
Within the Hell environnt, the power of the God Clan was greatly suppressed.
Huh?
That was...
What kind of power fluctuation was that?
He had never felt it before!
Xius's expression changed slightly as he looked toward Elder Patrio beside him.
Elder Patrio also sensed the aura belonging to Exillion within the atmosphere. His expression changed drastically as well. He imdiately signaled everyone to remain silent, closed his eyes to focus his mind, and ford a seal with both hands in front of his chest, attempting to communicate with the divine realm.
One minute later, Patrio cut off the communication and opened his eyes again.
Xius asked anxiously, "Elder, what happened?"
Patrio's expression was grave. He raised his head and looked far into the depths of hell, saying in a low voice, "The power left behind by Exillion is recondensing, and the speed of this condensation is extrely abnormal. It now seems that the abnormal fluctuations in Hell's source were caused by Exillion."
"Xius, you were probably right. This matter is very likely related to the Eyes of Hell."
A mber of the God Clan queried in confusion, "Exillion? Who was that?"
"The divine realm has ordered us to imdiately stop Exillion from recondensing the power of hell. I'll explain on the way. Move!"
With that, Patrio led everyone swiftly toward the depths of hell.
Along the way, as they sensed the fluctuations of the source power of Hell located even deeper within, more hellish demons went madly rushing toward the deeper regions of Hell.
Xius asked, "Elder, the Exillion you ntioned—was he that mber of the royal family?"
"That's right. Exillion was the inheritor of the God Clan's royal lineage. However, due to his inflated ambitions, he defected from the God Clan. To evade pursuit from within the clan, he chose to flee into Hell."
"Much later, we learned that Exillion had completely fallen. He proclaid himself the Demon Lord in Hell and even endeavored to fuse with the source power of Hell, intending to destroy the divine realm."
"For this reason, the God Realm launched a holy war. The royal family led the clan mbers into Hell and, taking advantage of the mont when Exillion was fusing with the source power of Hell, severely wounded him and killed him completely. To ensure safety, we sealed the Eyes of Hell, which were still in a fusion state, and brought them back to the divine realm."
"However..."
Patrio paused, then continued, "After that, we faintly discovered that behind everything—including Exillion's defection from the divine realm—there was another shadow. We suspected that all of this had been a trap."
"A trap?" Xius was surprised and frowned. "What kind of trap? Didn't Exillion already die in the end? And didn't we obtain the Eyes of Hell? Hadn't hell already returned to peace?"
