From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

"You're very brave," a voice of admiration echoed from the chaotic mist.

Any other god-level being would never so casually step into his misty laws.

Lu Heng shrugged and said, "Just think of me as a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers."

The two sides observed each other for a long time, and resounding booms could be heard from outside the fog from time to time.

After observation, Lu Heng was able to determine that the other party was not human, and did not even resemble a primate.

Lu Heng broke the silence: "My name is Lu Heng, from human civilization. How shall I address you?"

The being in the mist considered for a moment, then replied, "You may call me Palm."

Lu Heng was slightly surprised when he heard the name, and he guessed what it meant.

Communication between god-level powerhouses can be facilitated by mental communication; they do not need to understand each other's written language.

The information conveyed is not entirely in words and language.

After acquiring information, each person will search for the most suitable words within their respective language system to interpret it.

Therefore, when Lu Heng heard the other party refer to themselves as "palm", he guessed that the other party might be a plant.

Plant-based life forms exist in the vast universe; this is not a strange thing.

In the world of elves, there is the Ancient Tree of Knowledge. Apart from its physical form being a tree, its thinking, knowledge, and abilities are not much different from those of primates.

Therefore, it is not surprising that plant-based gods appear among the divine beings.

Relatively speaking, plant-based gods are less aggressive.

Perhaps that's why the other party is willing to communicate.

Lu Heng didn't care about anything else and began to use his mental power to spread the ideas of the Swordholder.

Lu Heng had also shared his philosophy about the Swordholder with the Dark Scales.

The Dark Scales made no comment, and even showed a hint of mockery towards the Swordholder, but that was not important. The fact that the two sides were able to cooperate and coexist peacefully was perhaps partly due to the Swordholder's ideology.

The Swordholder's philosophy is spread through spiritual means, including text, language, and images, allowing the recipient to understand the Swordholder's past in a very short time.

After reading it, Palm gave a neutral assessment: "I admire your ideas, but they won't have any impact on God's world."

Lu Heng didn't expect to recruit the other party; spreading his ideas was more about stating his position.

The reason why beings of the divine level remain wary of each other is that they cannot establish trust.

Not every being of the divine class seeks to seize the divine power of others through conflict, but in order to protect themselves, they must remain vigilant against other beings of the divine class.

Although Lu Heng's explanation of the Swordholder's philosophy did not gain Palm's approval, it at least lowered the other party's guard.

Then, Lu Heng got down to business and asked, "Have you seen the Naru Ascended Civilization?"

Palm: "Not yet. That world is closed off, and there's no way to get in for the time being."

Lu Heng raised an eyebrow and pressed further, "Is the Naru Ascension Civilization a closed world? Then why is there a summons?"

Palm: "Because outside the Naaru Ascension World, several Abyss Demons have appeared, posing a threat to their world. The rumbling sounds you heard are not from battles between demons, but mostly from the Abyss Demons attacking the spatial barrier of the Naaru Ascension World."

Lu Heng hadn't expected this situation and continued to ask, "Have you heard of the Naru Ascension Civilization before this?"

Palm: "No, this is a world that has never existed before, and there has never been any information about this civilization."

Lu Heng pondered for a moment before continuing to ask, "What about other god-level beings? Does anyone know anything about the Naru's ascension civilization?"

Palm: "The question you asked has actually been discussed by the gathered deities. No one has released any information about the Naaru's ascension to civilization. It's possible that no one knows, or it's possible that those who do know are unwilling to speak."

Lu Heng: "What's the situation now? Have any god-level beings taken action to drive away the Abyss Demon God?"

Palm: "We are currently in the stage of mutual spying. If an Abyss Demon God is alone, we might be able to try, but there are risks involved in taking action."

Lu Heng nodded and asked, "Are there any other god-level beings we can cooperate with?"

Palm: "No, you should have guessed my true form type. Other gods don't want to team up with gods who are weak in attack."

Lu Heng smiled and said, "I like teaming up with friends like you. Everyone has strengths. If you are weak in attack, you must have advantages in other areas."

Palm: "I don't know if you mean it sincerely, but it's certainly pleasing to hear."

Lu Heng steered the conversation back to business: "Now, can you tell me in detail about the situation of this Chaos Sea?"

The palm tree demonstrated what he had observed through its spiritual power.

The chaotic mist transformed into a map of a chaotic sea, on which some red dots and some green dots appeared.

The red dot clearly indicates the location of the Abyss Demon God, while the green dot represents a god-level being outside the Abyss faction.

Palm added, "The marked locations are not accurate; they are only inferred from the changes in the Chaos Sea. Also, that ring-shaped area is the spatial barrier of the Naru Ascended Civilization."

Looking at the map of the chaotic sea, Lu Heng thought about many things.

Judging from the current situation, this Naru Ascended Civilization has not actually been invaded by the Abyss God.

A world that has not yet been officially invaded has already begun to recruit god-level powerhouses for assistance.

This situation does not conform to the rules of conscription.

In other worlds, conscriptions occur after an invasion of the Abyss, but this Naaru Ascended Civilization experienced a conscription even before being invaded.

Moreover, the summons immediately enlisted multiple god-level beings. Furthermore, the Abyss simultaneously dispatched several Abyss Demons to attack the Naru Ascended Civilization.

This situation is even stranger.

What is so special about the Naaru Ascended Civilization?
The Abyss requires the deployment of seven or eight Abyss Demons at once.

Lu Heng observed the changes in the map of the Chaos Sea and said, "It seems that these Abyss Demons are not gathered together."

Palm: "There is also competition among the Abyss Gods, with each devouring the other to seize divine power. This is even more brutal among the Abyss Gods, so the Abyss Gods with weaker divine power dare not approach other Abyss Gods."

After considering for a moment, Lu Heng suggested, "How about we try to catch one that's alone and fight it out? We can cooperate and split the profits equally. If other god-level beings join forces, the profits will still be split equally."

Palm: "I can give it a try, but my offensive ability isn't very strong. Of course, I have other advantages; my scouting ability is decent. I can provide the location of isolated targets and offer some assistance when you take the shot."

Lu Heng nodded in agreement: "Okay, this is a good way to cooperate."

Then, the chaotic mist released by the palm tree began to move, observing the movements of the Abyss Demon God.

……

After searching for a long time in the Chaos Sea, Palm discovered two Abyss Demons traveling together.

"There are no lone ones, but we have spotted two Abyss Demons moving around, quite far from the other Abyss Demons."

Two abyss demons, these are not easy to deal with.

If the other side is determined to retreat, there's no way to stop them.

However, Lu Heng still asked, "Let me see what the target is?"

Palm used its mental power to manifest the images of these two abyssal demons.

The mist transformed into the forms of two abyss demons, one of which was a bloodline demon god, and the other was familiar—the Black Crystal Serpent.

At this moment, the Bloodline Demon God was standing on the head of the Black Crystal Serpent, moving through the Chaos Sea, seemingly tracking something.

I actually saw the Black Crystal Serpent here.

This black crystal serpent is naturally the independent head of the Dark Scales.

Now, the Black Crystal Serpent has actually allied with a Bloodline Demon God.

However, judging from their status, it is clear that the Bloodline Demon God is the superior.

The Black Crystal Serpent only took away one-third of the Dark Scale's divine power, so its divine power was relatively weak, and it was normal for it to be suppressed by the Bloodline Demon God.

As for why the Bloodline Demon God didn't devour it, it might be related to the Demon God's heart.

In fact, when the Black Crystal Serpent swallowed the heart, Lu Heng saw the heart and felt the strong bloody smell emanating from it.

At the time, I felt that the demon god's heart might be related to the Bloodline Clan.

It seems that the situation is as predicted.

The Black Crystal Serpent itself is not a bloodline, but its heart is.

In other words, its heart will be suppressed by the high-ranking bloodline, and unless it is willing to give up its heart, it will be unable to resist the suppression of the bloodline demon god.

After thinking quickly, Lu Hengfei said, "Let's choose these two demon gods as our targets and move closer."

Palm hesitated: "Are you sure? Even if we join forces, we might not be a match for them."

Lu Heng said with great certainty, "You just need to trap them, and I'll take care of the rest. If you're not a match for them, you should be able to escape, right?"

As a divine being among plants, the palm tree is indeed not very good at offensive capabilities, but it does have the ability to escape unscathed when encountering danger.

So he stopped questioning and quickly moved closer, releasing thousands of roots to enclose the surrounding space into a huge cage with a diameter of 100,000 meters, trapping the Bloodline Demon God and the Black Crystal Serpent inside.

The Bloodline Demon God was slightly surprised to find that the area was completely blocked by thick root systems.

He was a demon god with immense divine power, and he also had a demon serpent of demon god level with him. Even if two god-level beings came, they would not be able to pose a threat to him.

He activated his divine vision and quickly located Lu Heng's position, coldly snorting, "With such weak divine power, you dare to come here to die?"

Roar!
The Black Crystal Serpent also roared, for it recognized Lu Heng.

Lu Heng pressed down on the totem stone pillar, slammed it down, opened the Soul Devouring Abyss, opened the God Star Gate, and directly summoned the Dark Scale.

The three snake heads of the Dark Scales appeared, coiled around the totem pillar, and roared to the sky.

Sensing the aura of the three gods, the Bloodline Demon God coldly snorted, "Three gods? You don't actually think that the three of you working together can threaten me, do you?"

He could sense from the auras of the three divine beings that Lu Heng and the three-headed serpent were quite aggressive, but the one that created the root cage was very weak and not worth paying attention to.

So, it's still equivalent to two against two.

Lu Heng remained calm and gestured towards the direction of the Black Crystal Serpent, saying, "Look carefully, the thing under your feet belongs to our side."

The Bloodline Demon God was stunned. Upon closer inspection, he was shocked to discover that the divine power aura of the black crystal serpent beneath his feet was extremely similar to that of the three-headed serpent opposite him.

He didn't notice it at first because the Black Crystal Serpent was filled with the aura of the abyss, which masked the aura of divine power.

Upon discovering this, the Bloodline Demon God panicked.

If the black crystal serpent beneath his feet is allied with the opposing force, then this encounter has turned into a one-against-four battle. (End of Chapter)
