Well it is quite informative exposition chapter. While the Abyss is villain, I can at least understand his motivation. In order to advance, the rule from the cosmos / reality is that one need a Divine Realm to achieve higher level. Hence the Abyss wish to devour Douluo planet. The same thing happen with people in Douluo planet, they have been to used under a protection of Divine Realm that they haven't founded a way to turn planet into another Divine Realm since they destroy the ecosystem that make the planet strenght down. Not only that, until now there is no mention a plan to revitalize a planet. Not from Federation or other organizations. Only tang sect which try to enter space travel to get more resource, not to revitalize a planet. It makes one think the Federation is the most useless faction among them. In the end we as a reader sympathized more with people on douluo planet since they are, well people. But since these people never try to revitalize their planet by themselves hence I have less respect of them. Only wulin who try to help the planet and he is a special case. It is truly a sad moment when a villain actually has more concrete and solin plan to grow stronger as a whole race than a protagonist.
