From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Above the sky, nuclear bombs were still exploding, and the Winged Demon army was still circling and fighting.

However, the Winged Demon God, after losing an arm and a leg, retreated into the Eye of the Storm, escaping the law space of the Dragon's Rest World.

Seeing the demon god Salion retreat back into outer space, Sona and Soreville Bronze Forge finally let out a heavy sigh of relief.

Once the demon god Salion retreats, the remaining winged demons will be no threat.

From that moment on, the originally fierce thundercloud storm began to weaken.

The Winged Demon army immediately realized this, knowing that their ruler had abandoned the descent and that they had become expendable pawns.

Desperate, the Winged Demon army abandoned the fight and turned to fly towards the Eye of the Storm. Only by returning before the Eye of the Storm closed could they have a chance to survive.

When these winged demons flew out of the eye of the storm, they held spears, baring their fangs and claws, like the most rampant demons in the world.

Now that it was time to escape, they were in a sorry state, rushing towards the stargate at the center of the storm's eye like a school of fish.

The stargate is shrinking, and more and more winged demons are crowding onto the narrow stargate, like a swarm of bees that has lost its queen.

A large antimatter bomb flew into the eye of the storm and exploded in the swarm of winged demons.

boom!
The nuclear light from the explosion engulfed the winged demon horde; the massive army of winged demons, crammed together like sardines, was reduced to dust in the antimatter explosion.

Tens of thousands of winged demons exploded into fragments, falling into the sea; the scene was breathtaking.

……

The demon god Salion retreated, and the Black Iron dwarves and sirens launched a counterattack, hunting down the winged demons who had not had time to escape the Dragon's Rest World.

Without its master, the Winged Demons had almost no ability to resist and could only scatter and flee, only to be hacked to pieces by the pursuing Siren warriors and Dark Iron Dwarf warriors.

The remaining storm forces persisted for three hours before finally subsiding.

The tidal sea gradually returned to calm.

However, the tidal sea is now completely different from what it was before the disaster.

Floating in the sea were fragments of bodies whose parts were indistinguishable, as well as debris from a nuclear explosion.

The sea was filled with the smell of gunpowder, mixed with the stench of burning flesh; one glance was enough to tell what a brutal battle had taken place here.

The Sirens gradually gathered around the Temple of Vashj.

This temple, which represented the sacred status of the Siren race, has been reduced to ruins by the demon god Salion.

The temple that symbolized the Siren's faith collapsed, plunging many Siren into feelings of frustration and confusion.

Sona stirred up the tides, raised the scepter of the sea god, and shouted to her people:
"Warriors, we should not be discouraged. We have won this battle."

"The Bodi Temple is the birthplace of our Siren race. Hundreds of years ago, the Bodi Temple was occupied by the Blackscale Demons."

"Now, we have regained our former bravery and have destroyed the Blackscale Demon."

“We don’t need to cry in Vashj. We will return to Bodi Sea and rebuild the glory of the Siren.”

"Warriors, follow me, return to the Temple of Bodhi, seek the relics left by our ancestors, and we will surely be restored!"

These cries echoed along the waves throughout the Tidal Sea, and the sea monsters fleeing the disaster returned to the sound, gathering before the collapsed Vashj Temple, raising their fists and shouting in unison:
"Return to Bodøy! Return to Bodøy! Return to Bodøy..."

……

The Vashj territory has been destroyed, and the Sirens have decided to return to Bodhi Sea to rebuild the Bodhi Temple.

Without further delay, the group of sirens gathered survival supplies from the ruins of Vashj and began their migration towards the Bodi Sea.

Some of the sirens stayed behind to clean up the battlefield.

Countless winged demons were killed, and countless winged demon spears fell into the deep sea.

Although these weapons are not of particularly high grade, there are enough of them to constitute a considerable fortune.

Besides.

The most important spoils of this battle were the arm of the demon god Salion.

Before Salion left the Dragon's Rest world, he wanted to take back his severed arm and foot, but he only took the foot. When he tried to take the arm, he was stopped by Lu Heng, Orianna, and Sona.

Therefore, there is now a demon's arm on the seabed of the Tidal Sea.

At this moment, Lu Heng and Oriana were standing on the demon god's arm.

This arm is so long that you can't see the end of it at a glance.

As soon as you get close, you can feel the divine power emanating from the arm.

As the two approached, the demon's arm reacted, attempting to crush them.

However, after the storm subsided and the laws of the world returned to normal, Salion's divine power was restricted by the Dragon's Rest World.

Moreover, what fell was only one of the demon god's arms, containing only a portion of its divine power, so it could no longer harm Lu Heng and the other person.

Lu Heng raised the Aurora Blade and thrust it down, unleashing the power of the Godslayer and beginning to strip away divine power.

Roar!
The demon's arm trembled violently.

Salion's face appeared in outer space, roaring at Lu Heng: "Insect! How dare you!"

Through the spatial barrier, Lu Heng could see Salion's roar as he stripped Salion of his divine power and replied, "You defeated dog, you still want to bark?"

Salion continued to roar, "Insects! Do you know what kind of being you're talking to?"

Lu Heng curled the corners of his lips: "Then come in and hit me."

Bang!Bang!bang...

Enraged, Salion swung his other arm and punched the spatial barrier repeatedly, but he was unable to break through it.

The storm lasted for thirty-one days, beginning in the Abyss Battlefield, before Salion finally descended.

Even the killing of the Blackscale Demigod Chris couldn't bring Salion to arrive a second earlier.

This shows that the laws and restrictions of the other world have a strong suppressive effect on demon gods.

Salion is not incapable of breaking through spatial barriers; he is capable of doing so. In fact, he can easily break through spatial barriers with a single punch, extending his hand into the Dragon's Rest World.

However, before undergoing the degradation of the Chaos Laws, he could only display less than half of the divine power when he extended his arm into the Dragon's Rest World.

If he dares to stick his arm in, Lu Heng can cut off his other arm as well.

Therefore, Lu Heng ignored his threats and continued to strip away the divine power.

[Gain 100 points of divine power; personal divine power increased.]

[Gain 100 points of divine power; personal divine power increased.]

……

As prompts appeared, Lu Heng's divine power continued to surge.

Salion felt his divine power draining away, and he was furious.

His gaze darkened, and he suddenly broke through the spatial barrier, reaching his arm into the Dragon's Rest World to grab the severed arm.

In the instant the space shattered, Lu Heng drew his sword and swung it out with lightning speed.

[Godslayer] A flash of sword light cleaved open the palm of the demon god Salion.

The demon god Salion's hand, which had reached into the seabed, split open in the middle. No blood splattered, but divine power exploded outwards.

Ah!
He roared in anger and immediately withdrew his hand. Had he hesitated even a moment longer, Lu Heng would have unleashed his second sword strike.

After trying, Salion finally realized that forcibly taking the severed arm was impossible.

The suppression of the laws of the Dragon's Rest World, coupled with the [Godslayer] power on Lu Heng, was enough to pose a threat to him.

He was furious, but there was nothing he could do about Lu Heng.

He is clearly a demon god, yet he is powerless against a demigod.

He had never felt so frustrated, but that was the reality.

Even if he didn't want to accept it, he had no power to stop it.

As he watched the divine power of his severed arm being gradually stripped away, he finally calmed down and said in a deep voice, "Let's talk about terms. Give me back my arm, and you can have whatever you want."

Upon hearing this, Lu Heng's lips curled into a mocking smile.

How familiar this situation is.

When the Skeleton Monarch first appeared, Lu Heng seized a portion of his divine essence.

At that time, the Skeleton Lord also tried to take back the Divine Essence through temptation and negotiation.

Divine essence is the source of the Skeleton Lord's divine power.

It's the same now.

To seize the divine power of the severed arm is to strip the demon god Salion of his divine power.

For every bit of divine power he loses, his divine rank decreases by one point.

As Lu Heng's divine power increased, how could the demon god Salion not be furious?
As Lu Heng absorbed the divine power, he replied, "Hand over your divine core, and I'll return your arm to you."

"Damn reptile!" the demon god Salion roared furiously.

Losing an arm only meant losing a portion of his divine power, but Lu Heng's condition was to take his divine essence.

This wasn't a negotiation at all; it was a complete breakdown in relations.

Feeling the surging divine power within him, Lu Heng sneered, "What can you do to me?"

Bang!Bang!bang...

The demon god Salion pounded on the spatial barrier frantically, but to no avail.

It's unbelievable that a demon god could be forced to this extent.

Queen Aureanna was also very surprised, as she did not absorb the divine power of the severed arm like Lu Heng.

Because she possesses a complete inheritance of divine power, seizing the power of the demon god might not be a good thing for her.

She also cautiously reminded him, "Lu Heng, rashly absorbing the divine power of other gods may lead to unpredictable consequences. You should be careful."

Lu Heng was unsure whether the combination of divine power would have any negative effects, but now that he had this opportunity, he certainly wouldn't let it slip by.

If there are any side effects, then we can consider expelling the absorbed divine power later.

“Okay, I know, but this is the fastest way to obtain divine power. Humans don’t have the same depth of understanding as you, and we don’t have a better choice.” Lu Heng appreciated her sentiment, but he wouldn’t change his mind.

At this moment.

The demon god Salion sneered, "Insect, absorb all you want. Once you've taken all the divine power from the severed arm, I'll refine you into my minions!"

Divine power is not a pure form of energy, but rather energy imbued with the will of the gods.

Therefore, lower-level beings, after being tainted by divine power, will not ascend to become gods; more likely, they will fall into the clutches of gods.

Therefore, Lu Heng also had this concern.

If the absorbed divine power truly takes control of the body, it is indeed possible to become a puppet controlled by the demon god Salion.

At this moment.

Queen Aureanna said, "You don't need to worry. As long as you wear my father's crown, Salion's divine power cannot affect you. The crown's divine resistance and iron will can resist the erosion of your will by external divine power."

Hearing her reminder, Lu Heng felt relieved and accelerated the absorption of the severed arm's divine power.

Bang!Bang!bang...

The demon god Salion became even more furious; threats, deception, and seduction all failed.

He could only watch as Lu Heng slowly drained the divine power from his severed arm.

"You damned reptile! When I catch you, I will chew your flesh and blood and swallow it whole!" The demon god Salion uttered his final vow of revenge.

While making the oath, the demon god Salion was also mobilizing his divine power, attempting to seize Lu Heng's will through the power of his severed arm.

Lu Heng absorbed all the divine power from the Demon God's severed arm, and the next moment he felt the divine power within his body begin to surge.

The divine power within him and the divine power he absorbed formed two opposing camps, which began to surge and collide within his body, causing his blood and qi to churn uncontrollably.

Lu Heng quickly covered his chest to suppress the raging divine power within him.

Salion's divine power surged relentlessly, constantly attacking the intermediate head and beginning to seize control of the body.

Lu Heng discovered that his limbs were intermittently losing their mobility and making some strange movements.

This is the initial sign that willpower is under control; it remains to be seen which side will ultimately prevail.

Queen Aureanna noticed that Lu Heng was not in a good state. She stepped forward, placed her hand on the Godslayer's Crown, and called out, "Father, we need your help."

Just as the conflict between the two divine powers within Lu Heng's body intensified, a force descended from the Crown of the Godslayer, beginning to suppress Salion's divine power.

This power seemed to be a weapon specifically designed to counter divine power; wherever it passed, Salion's divine power was quickly defeated.

A moment later, Salion's divine power was completely reduced to a state of chaos and merged with Lu Heng's own divine power.

After the divine power was fully integrated, it gradually condensed into a core of divine power within the body.

Lu Heng sensed the state of the divine power core and immediately understood what it was.

This core of divine power was none other than the rudimentary form of a god.

Low-level demigods do not have a divine spark. Once they condense the rudimentary form of a divine spark, they enter the ranks of high-level demigods, and are only one step away from becoming true gods with even greater power.

Queen Orianna also sensed Lu Heng's transformation and looked on with envy: "Your improvement is so fast, is this a human talent?"

Among the many races, humans seem to be the most common.

They lacked the magical talent of the elves, their affinity for nature, the sea-dwelling affinity of the sirens, and the fire resistance and forging talent of the Dark Iron dwarves.

Humans seem to have only decent learning abilities, but can a race really be so ordinary that it has no distinctive features at all?
Lu Heng wasn't sure; perhaps the rapid formation of a divine prototype was a hidden talent of humankind.

After condensing the core of divine power, Lu Heng felt his divine power increase, thus giving all the abilities he possessed the effects of divine power.

Originally, demigods were immune to control skills like [Soul Imprint] due to their divinity.

After condensing the core of divine power, the [Soul Seal] can be used on demigods. The level of effect it can produce depends on the outcome of the clash between the two sides' divine power.

The abilities of the fifth job advancement have also been enhanced, and the stargates that were originally opened now have limitations on the number and quality of creatures that can be teleported.

With the blessing of divine power, the total mass of matter transmitted through the star gate is related to the amount of divine power consumed; the more divine power consumed, the greater the mass that can be transmitted.

Furthermore, all class-specific abilities—Shadow Walk, Rift Slash, Void Flash, Divine Judgment, and the Path of the Sword Saint—have received divine enhancement, resulting in a comprehensive boost to their power. (End of Chapter)
