Chapter 2980 - 2980: Su Yang's Speculation

"No way?"

Everyone was awestruck, pondering what connection there could be between the two.

Su Yang still remained silent, continuing to lead the group in their search.

They spent fifty to sixty years exploring several areas, spanning over a hundred stars.

However, the situation within these stars was the same—no Blood Shadow, no Spiritual Source, only emptiness.

The group was completely taken aback by this situation.

They couldn't help but begin to ponder Su Yang's words. Could it be that the disappearance of Spiritual Sources within these stars is related to the abundance of spiritual energy in the Great World?

What could be the connection between the two?

Supreme Dragon Emperor looked puzzled, "Su Alliance Leader, how could this be?"

"Where did these Spiritual Sources go?"

"Is it truly connected to the abundance of spiritual energy in our world?"

The others also looked at Su Yang in astonishment, waiting for his answer.

Su Yang pondered for a moment and softly said, "I cannot definitively determine if there's a connection."

"However, everyone has seen it—the Spiritual Sources within these stars have vanished."

"I suspect this is the work of the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable."

"The Seven Great Heavenly Venerable may have released all the spiritual energy from these Spiritual Sources, causing this widespread abundance in the Great World."

"Because these stars are scattered throughout the Great World, once this spiritual energy is released, it can swiftly permeate any area in the Great World, resulting in the current abundance we see."

Everyone was dumbfounded. This explanation seemed plausible, yet it was incredibly shocking.

Supreme Dragon Emperor looked astonished, "No way?"

"Su Alliance Leader, could you be mistaken?"

"The Spiritual Sources contained here are limited, yet we are amidst the Integration of Ten Thousand Realms!"

"Regarding the Integration of Ten Thousand Realms, who knows how many World Trees have merged together!"

"It could be tens of millions, even a billion!"

"With so many World Trees integrated, the spatial extent has expanded by tens of millions or even a billion times."

"Within such a vast expanse, could the released Spiritual Sources suffice?"

Su Yang glanced at him and softly replied, "Do you know how much spiritual energy is within these Spiritual Sources?"

"Each Spiritual Source within a star comprises all the spiritual energy ever accumulated within a World Tree. It not only includes the spiritual energy diffused throughout the worlds but also that absorbed by life, all gathered together—a terrifying figure indeed."

"Releasing such an amount of spiritual energy to suffuse the Great World with abundance isn't a difficult feat."

"This quantity of spiritual energy is undoubtedly more abundant than what we previously had!"

After contemplating, everyone realized this was indeed the case.

Although the Ten Thousand Worlds have integrated, all the spiritual energy from these worlds has been released as well.

Their world had only developed for a short time; the spiritual energy they possessed was markedly lesser compared to those former worlds.

Moreover, within their world, the spiritual energy governed by the Heavenly Dao and Earth Principle was still being controlled, making the energy notably thinner, far less abundant than those previous worlds.

In such conditions, the release of spiritual energy from those ancients worlds would, without a doubt, be vastly more abundant than theirs.

"But why would the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable do this?"

"Releasing all the spiritual energy only makes the Great World slightly more abundant; it offers them no real advantage. What's the significance?"

Human Emperor inquired.

Su Yang shook his head, "Things are far from simple."

"Haven't you noticed?"

"These stars have no Spiritual Source now, but the Blood Shadows are also gone!"

Human Emperor was perplexed, "Is there a problem with that?"

Su Yang said, "The issue lies with these Blood Shadows. They're gone now, but where would they go?"

The group was puzzled; that was indeed a valid question.

Blood Shadows usually lingered within these stars, but with the disappearance of the Spiritual Sources, where would these Blood Shadows go?

Human Emperor murmured, "Su Alliance Leader, are you suggesting?"

Su Yang remained silent for a moment and then quietly said, "There are two possibilities."

"Firstly, the Blood Shadows remained within these stars because they were linked to the Spiritual Sources here!"

"Due to the Spiritual Sources, they typically wouldn't leave."

"They might only come out to hunt when encountering other life forms."

"From a certain perspective, the existence of Blood Shadows was actually to protect these Spiritual Sources—after all, these Spiritual Sources once belonged to their power."

"Now that the Spiritual Sources are gone, these Blood Shadows have lost their purpose and will wander aimlessly through the Great World."

The group nodded; this situation they could understand.

Supreme Dragon Emperor was bewildered, "Would the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable create such a big mess just to have them wander the Great World? What's the point?"

Su Yang shook his head, "The aim isn't for them to wander; the real purpose is to target us!"

"These Blood Shadows, upon encountering life, would attack unconsciously."

"If they wander the Great World and encounter us, what do you think would happen?"

Everyone's faces changed; if this were true, it would spell trouble.

These Blood Shadows roaming the Great World might encounter them at any time.

If they meet, the Blood Shadows, being mindless, would attack them, posing a significant problem for the Human Clan.

Supreme Dragon Emperor scornfully said, "The Seven Great Heavenly Venerable are too despicable to do such things!"

"Calling themselves the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable? More like the Seven Shameful Scoundrels!"

Su Yang softly said, "That's just one possibility, and it isn't even the most troublesome one!"

"Oh?" Everyone was astonished. If this wasn't the most troublesome scenario, what could be worse?

Supreme Dragon Emperor asked, "What's the other possibility?"

Su Yang took a deep breath and solemnly said, "The other possibility is that the Seven Great Heavenly Venerable might find a way to resurrect the remnant souls of life within the Blood Shadows."

"Each Blood Shadow contains many of the Strongest."

"Sometimes dozens, sometimes hundreds, or even thousands."

"If these strongest beings were to be resurrected, given time, after they've restored their strength."

"Imagine the state of the Great World?"

Everyone's faces changed; was there any need to guess this scenario?

If the Great World were filled with an overwhelming number of the strongest, surely it would fall into continuous chaos and battles.

Each person has their own thoughts; each person also harbors ambition.

With so many strongest appearing, who wouldn't want to become the ultimate ruler?
