"Don't tell me he's really dead." Li Huailin scratched his head. Although he had thought about the possibility of this happening, it was just a thought. After all, if Coltranthus was really dead, things would be a little troublesome. After all, he was …
"Wait … If Coltranthus was sealed here to manage the Elemental Rift, then if he died, the rift would be left unattended and open." Li Huailin suddenly realized something. Yes, theoretically speaking, if Coltranthus was dead, Li Huailin should be able to see the opening of the Elemental Rift from here. Since he hadn't seen it yet, it meant that Coltranthus was probably fine. However, there was no response for a long time. He didn't know what had happened.
If he knew it would be so troublesome, he would have left Eopham's teleportation point untouched. However, it was useless to think about it now. After thinking about it, Li Huailin wanted to see the situation on the Celestials' side no matter what. So, since there was no response from Coltranthus, Li Huailin could only choose another route.
The so-called other route, of course, referred to the Elemental Portal on the Dark Continent. The portal there was forcefully opened by Byakee. Until now, there were no signs of it being repaired. Now, it was a passage to the Celestials' side.
Of course, the players were also very curious about that thing. Because most people didn't know what the strange portal was, many players were ready to try and see if it was some kind of hidden dungeon. However, most people who entered the Elemental Plane would die instantly. So, the players thought that it was a place with insufficient quest items or that the game version hadn't been released yet. Because it was instant death, Li Huailin couldn't reverse the buff. So, he still had to ask the Jade Emperor for help.
Since they had already contacted the Jade Emperor, they quickly agreed on a meeting place. Both of them teleported to the Dark Continent's teleportation point and arrived at the entrance of the Elemental Portal. Of course, as they walked, Li Huailin also explained the current situation to the Jade Emperor.
"I can't contact the little white man either." The Jade Emperor nodded. "Is he really dead?"
"I think it's impossible for him to be dead. Otherwise, the seal on the Elemental Rift would lose its effect. However, it hasn't. Something must have happened," Li Huailin said. "Anyway, let's go to the border of God's Realm first."
"I see." The two chatted as they entered the Elemental Plane. Of course, the scene here was still the same. There was still nothing, just a sea of red everywhere. Because it was Li Huailin who sent Byakee to the other gate, he had a vague impression of the direction. There were even markings on the ground. That's right. After walking for a while, they saw the huge crater created by Byakee. Then, they saw the deep ravine left behind by Byakee. Walking along the ravine, they could see the elemental gate on the other side.
That's right. After walking for a while, they saw the huge pit that Byakee had created. Then, they saw the deep ravine that Byakee had left behind. If they walked along the ravine, they would see the Elemental Gate on the other side. This should have been the case. However, when Li Huailin and the Jade Emperor walked along the ravine, they realized that they didn't see another Elemental Creature.
Of course, Li Huailin didn't know what the black sphere was. However, he saw something familiar beside it. It was an elemental creature. Of course, Li Huailin didn't know what the black sphere was. However, next to it, Li Huailin saw something familiar. It was an Elemental Creature. Of course, the small ones didn't matter. The Elemental Creatures that Li Huailin noticed were Lord-tier Elemental Creatures. They were bigger, so he could see them immediately. Li Huailin didn't know what was going on. He walked toward the familiar Elemental Lord.
"Gerkin, what's going on?" Li Huailin walked up to the Elemental Lord and asked. Yes, this huge Elemental Lord was the Fire Elemental Lord that Li Huailin was familiar with, Gerkin.
"Sir Oracle, you're finally here!" Gerkin was excited to see Li Huailin. He seemed to have a lot of things to tell Li Huailin. "Sir Oracle, if you didn't come back, we wouldn't know what to do."
"What's going on? What is this?" Li Huailin asked, pointing at the black sphere.
"Sir Oracle, this … this thing …" Gerkin scratched his head as if he couldn't explain the situation. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I don't know what's going on either. Anyway, we don't know when a big crack appeared here. We didn't notice it at first, but we didn't expect the crack to suddenly spew out a lot of black smoke one day. It started to corrode the surrounding land …"
"Ugh … I think I've heard of this before." Li Huailin facepalmed.
"It's Byakee?" The Summoning Jade Emperor finally understood.
"It really is Byakee …" Li Huailin nodded. "This guy is really something. He can even corrode the elemental plane?"
"Sir Oracle, I received a report of the situation here, so I came to take a look. I found that those who got close to the crack would go crazy and suddenly attack our compatriots …" Gerkin continued. As he spoke, Gerkin pointed to a pile of black stuff next to him. "Sir Oracle, look, these are those crazy guys. They seem to be corroded by something."
Li Huailin took a look. There were indeed a lot of Fire Elemental corpses next to them. Yes, after a Fire Elemental died, they would leave behind a pile of stuff. It was supposed to be red, but now the pile on the ground was dark red.
"It really is Byakee …" The Summoning Jade Emperor nodded. Yes, they had seen this situation before. Didn't Byakee spit out strange black sludge? Creatures that were contaminated by the sludge would become strange and go berserk? They just didn't expect it to work on Elemental creatures. Strictly speaking, they couldn't even be considered as living creatures.
"So what's going on now? Did you guys directly open up a barrier or something to seal all the black things? " Li Huailin looked at the black sphere again. He seemed to have figured out what it was. Yes, this thing now looked like a cover. It wasn't originally black, but it was filled with black gas.
"Sir Oracle, we didn't do this," Gerkin said. "It's the Celestial race."
"Celestial race?" Li Huailin was stunned. "You mean the Celestial race made a barrier to prevent the smoke from spreading out?"
"No, Sir Oracle. This black smoke was created by the Celestial race," Gerkin said. "According to that guy, this was created by the Celestial race to deal with us."
"Huh?" Li Huailin was stunned. This smoke was obviously created by Byakee. Why would Gerkin think that it was created by the Celestial race? However, Li Huailin immediately knew that Gerkin, the brainless man, had been tricked again. Of course, the person who tricked him was trying to direct the hatred towards the Celestial race. In other words, they were on the same side. Li Huailin immediately asked, "Who told you that?"
"Sir Oracle, it's this guy." Gerkin pointed at the direction of the black sphere. Li Huailin was taken aback at first, not knowing what was going on. But upon closer inspection, Li Huailin saw a small white dot where Golkin was pointing. Yes, compared to the big black sphere, the white dot was too small. Li Huailin didn't notice it at first, but after taking a closer look, he realized it was a white dot. Speaking of white, the first person Li Huailin thought of was Cole Lancers.
Yes, after taking a closer look, it was indeed a human figure. Li Huailin quickly walked over. As he got closer, Li Huailin could see it clearly. The person Gerkin was talking about was indeed Coltranthus. Now, he was right next to the black sphere. Both of his hands were pressed on the edge of the black sphere, as if he was maintaining the barrier around the black sphere. Of course, after seeing this, Li Huailin knew why there was no response from Coltranthus. It seemed that the barrier needed Coltranthus to maintain, so he really didn't have the time to look for Li Huailin.
"Coltranthus!" Li Huailin ran over and shouted.
"You're here." Coltranthus wasn't surprised by Li Huailin's appearance. After all, Li Huailin had just contacted him. He also guessed that if Li Huailin couldn't be contacted, he might come in through the crack. Coltranthus turned around and greeted him, but his hands were still on the outer wall.
"Are you okay?" Although he couldn't see Coltranthus' expression, Li Huailin could hear that Coltranthus sounded a little tired, so he asked directly.
"I'm fine. After all, this is the Elemental Plane, so energy replenishment is very fast," Coltranthus said. "But this defensive spell can't be maintained forever."
"What's the situation now?" Li Huailin immediately asked. "What's going on?"
"Mother and I didn't expect Byakee to be so dangerous," Coltranthus said. "He doesn't have the intention to deal with the Celestials alone. Now it seems that he's targeting everyone. He wants to pollute the entire world …"
