After knowing that they have become the target of the Shadowless Council, Ling Chen didn't want to waste any more time in the Zenus Star.

It wasn't that he was afraid of the Shadowless Council, but he had to make some preparations. Even though he was confident of his strength, he didn't dare to underestimate them.

Aside from the fact that all their members were powerful 2nd Life Transition Paragon Realm experts, Ling Chen didn't know anything about the Shadowless Council.

Not only he didn't know where they came from, but he also didn't even know how many people were in the Shadowless Council and who their backer was.

The entire group was shrouded in a veil of mystery. To sum it up, he had no idea who or what he was up against.

Nonetheless, from the information he was able to gather so far, Ling Chen knew that the Shadowless Council wasn't from the Omega Galaxy or even the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe.

Just like his Akasha Spiritual World, the Shadowless Council popped out nowhere millions of years ago and controlled the entire Omega Galaxy with sheer power and ruthlessness behind the scene.

Their existence and origin remained a mystery till now. Some people believed that they came from the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe. However, Ling Chen didn't think so.

Even though Ling Chen has never been to the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe, he knew a great deal about it as well as its power structures.

However, he had never heard about an influence known as the Shadowless Council or anything remotely similar to it.

And if there was indeed an influence like that, it must have acted behind the scene just like they're doing in the 8th Ring of Chaos Universe.

All the information Ling Chen knew about the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe came from the memories of the Great Luo Martial God who was the Crown Prince of the extinct Great Luo Empire.

As the Shadowless Council was an extremely secretive organization and was only known by a selected few, maybe the Great Luo Martial God wasn't qualified to know about their existence just like the Crown Prince of the Verid Empire didn't know anything about them as well.

As such, Ling Chen suspected that the Shadowless Council or the people behind the Shadowless Council might be from the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe.

Nonetheless, whether the Shadowless Council was from the 7th Ring of the Chaos Universe or the 6th Ring of the Chaos Universe, they were an extremely powerful force. As such, Ling Chen didn't dare to underestimate them or take them lightly.

As result, after knowing that he has become their new target along with his children, Ling Chen decided to change his plan which was to go to Nirvana City, the capital of the Zenus Star.

The only reason Ling Chen wanted to go to Nirvana City was to use the teleportation portal that led to the Abyssal Star.

The Abyssal Star was a hidden star where the criminals who had committed heinous crimes were banished by the Verid Empire. The entire Abyssal Star was like a giant prison or cage.

The spiritual energy in the Abyssal Star was completely dried up which made it impossible for someone to cultivate. As such, they weren't worried about the prisoners getting stronger and escaped the planet.

Aside from that, the environment of the Abyssal Star was very brutal and harsh. A large amount of poisonous air filled the entire Star. The strength of the poison was enough to make anyone below the 1st Life Transition to immediately rot away and die. The Abyssal Star was simply hell.

The environment of the Abyssal Star was so bad that the Verid Empire built a base in space for the prison guards to observe or watch over the prisoners instead of in the Abyssal Star itself.

Aside from the prisoners and the numerous monsters and demon beasts, there wasn't anyone else living in the Abyssal Star. It was like a world filled with the worst criminals.

Ling Chen had planned to go to the Abyssal Star by using the secret teleportation portal in Nirvana city guarded by the Stellar Lord of the Helios Solar System to recruit some of those prisoners into the Akasha Spiritual World.

However, knowing that the Shadowless Council was now after him, he was somehow forced to change his plan at the last minute.

But, he didn't give up on the idea of recruiting some of the prisoners from the Abyssal Star. Instead, he chose to give that task to Ling Wei, the crazed battle maniac.

Unlike the other Dark and Light Primordial Shura Gods, Ling Wei had already used all of his slots for the Akasha Spiritual World. As such, he was free.

Though his subordinates did all the work, he was still the first among all of his siblings to finish his mission. Furthermore, unlike his other siblings, he wasn't picky about who he gave the slots to.

He just wanted to get rid of them as soon as possible as he had found this mission quite boring. If there wasn't any bloodbath and slaughter involved, he wasn't interested.

However, after knowing that Ling Chen was going to send him to a place filled with heinous and vicious criminals where he could fight as much as he wanted, Ling Wei was more than happy to accept this mission.

While the Abyssal Star might be considered the most vicious and dangerous place throughout the whole Verid Empire, it was simply a paradise to someone like Ling Wei.

After making all the preparations, Ling Chen immediately summoned Ling Wei into the dark void within his lower-dantian and then to his location which was Plares City.

It didn't matter whether they were millions of light-years away, Ling Chen could always summon his children into his dark or white void space. He could also switch places with them whenever he wanted.

Not only that, but Ling Chen could also feel their existence or their location no matter how far they were due to the Godly Dark Tree within his sea of consciousness. It was as if each one of his children were little shards of himself or his soul.
