From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Palm was sent on a mission to eliminate the traitors, which is why she followed the instructions.

He continued to trace the glowing sea urchin named "Yao" by extending its root system.

Lu Heng reached out to stop him and said, "Forget it, don't chase after him."

Palm didn't know why Lu Heng was interfering, but he himself didn't have the ability to eliminate traitors. If he wanted to complete this mission, he had to join forces with Lu Heng.

Therefore, when Lu Heng said he wouldn't pursue it, he also brought back the extended root system.

For the next two weeks, the demons of the Summoning Faction and the Abyss Faction continued to fight in the Chaos Sea, but neither side fought to the death and no results were achieved.

Lu Heng's mind was no longer on fighting the Abyss Demon God; he was constantly thinking about the spatial barrier.

Although he had only seen the glowing sea urchin once, and the other party was even a traitor, Lu Heng's intuition inexplicably made him want to believe him.

Perhaps it was because they shared the same idea of ​​exploring the spatial barriers and the truth of the abyss that Lu Heng felt like a fellow traveler and chose to trust the other person.

However, Lu Heng still had many questions that remained unanswered.

A month after the glowing sea urchin disappeared, Lu Heng received a message at the level of laws.

The message invited Lu Heng to meet at the designated coordinates in the Chaos Sea.

To be on the safe side, Lu Heng sent a clone to go.

In a chaotic sea with no clear landmarks, I saw that glowing sea urchin once again.

Just like the first time I saw it, a glowing sea urchin with a diameter of one kilometer looks like it is staring at a star if viewed with the naked eye.

Only with divine vision can his appearance be clearly seen.

Upon meeting the other party, Lu Heng spoke first: "I have many questions to ask, and I also want to see the secrets of the abyss, so I believe our goals are aligned."

The glowing sea urchin seemed to guess Lu Heng's thoughts and calmly replied, "Ask away."

Lu Heng pondered for a moment before asking, "You were deemed a traitor by the summoned will, but what about the Abyss? Will the Abyss accept you?"

Generally speaking, betrayal is a transitional process before one degenerates into abyssal monsters.

The vast majority of traitors are those who cannot withstand the power bestowed upon them by the abyss and thus choose to become traitors.

Once you become a traitor, you will either be killed by the recruits or gradually transform into an abyss demon.

The moment one becomes a traitor, the traitor gains the abyss's approval and is protected from attacks by other abyssal demons.

Following this logic, the glowing sea urchin is already a traitor, and theoretically, it should be an ally of the other abyssal demons, not an enemy.

Glowing Sea Urchin: "Your understanding of traitors comes from your past experiences. But in reality, the identity of a traitor is not determined by the Abyss."

"Those whom the will of the summons consider traitors are, in the perspective of the abyss, actually those who submit."

"Therefore, the identity of a traitor is determined by the will of the summoner, and is essentially unrelated to the abyss."

"My current situation is somewhere in between."

"In the judgment of the will to be recruited, I am a traitor, but I did not absorb the energy of the abyss, so I did not receive the abyss's certification and do not belong to the abyss faction."

"That's why I'm in such a complicated situation now. In the eyes of the Abyss and the Will of Conscription, I am a hostile target."

Lu Heng understood his situation and nodded, saying, "I understand. Is there any possibility of changing your current state? For example, regaining the forgiveness of the summoning will?"

The word "forgiveness" can only be used for intelligent beings who possess emotions, morality, and other such thoughts.

Based on the information currently available, the will to summon does not appear to be life.

Therefore, the word "forgiveness" is not quite appropriate, but Lu Heng could not find a more suitable word to replace it.

Glowing sea urchin: "I've thought about this problem and tried to solve it, but nothing worked."

"Based on this situation, I have a guess that the purpose of summoning the will may not be to fight against the abyss, but to protect this spatial barrier."

"Therefore, I am judged to be in the rule sequence of traitors, which is even higher than falling into the abyss, and there is no possibility of turning back."

Lu Heng felt that some of his preconceived notions about the will to be conscripted were being challenged.

For so long, I've believed that the existence of the summoned will is to fight against the abyss, but now that idea is beginning to waver.

If the existence of the summoned will is essentially to protect the spatial barrier of this chaotic sea, then the fight against the abyss is simply because the abyss's goal is to break through the spatial barrier.

This speculation might be true.

Based on the information currently available, it is impossible to disprove this conjecture.

If this speculation is the truth, many things we previously believed will be overturned.

Lu Heng took a deep breath and continued to ask, "What about the Abyss? Is the Abyss's purpose merely to break through the spatial barrier? Where is the source of the Abyss?"

After a moment of silence, the glowing sea urchin replied, "The Abyss is more like a pool of ink spreading out, heading towards a single ultimate goal, and expanding toward the astral plane."

"In fact, when you discovered the existence of the Demon God Battlefield, you should have already realized that the purpose of the Abyss in eroding many worlds was not for the sake of erosion itself."

"The abyss erodes countless civilizations in order to raise a powerful abyss demon god, and then guides the abyss demon god to attack the spatial barrier and open the so-called black box."

"In other words, the Abyss invading your human world, or other worlds, is not the ultimate goal."

"The purpose of the Abyss invasion is to cultivate powerful Abyss Demons, and the ultimate goal is to break the spatial barrier of the Chaos Sea."

Lu Heng frowned and voiced his question: "If that's the case, then the summoning of wills is like a program, a protection program."

"But the Abyss isn't like a program; it's more like a self-aware behavior. It just looks like cold, unchanging program rules, but its actual purpose is clearly defined." Glowing Sea Urchin: "Your idea is similar to mine. At least the Abyss's initial actions had a clear behavioral logic: to break through the spatial barrier."

"Whether she remained conscious afterward is uncertain."

"There may be another scenario: the initial target of the abyss has behavioral logic, but after a long period of time, only mechanical targets remain, eventually evolving into fixed programs."

Lu Heng felt that the amount of information he heard today was greater than the total amount of information he had received before.

The summoning of wills is like a procedure that exists to protect the spatial barrier.

The Abyss's motivation is to break down spatial barriers.

These two laws are inherently antagonistic; one side attacks the spatial barrier, while the other protects it.

The information provided by the glowing sea urchin is correct.

The initial procedure for summoning the will to exist is not to fight against the abyss, but to protect the spatial barrier. Therefore, the glowing sea urchin is judged as a traitor at a higher rule level than the one who falls into the abyss.

A demon god who has fallen into the abyss may still have a chance of redemption, but a traitor who attacks the spatial barrier has absolutely no chance of redemption.

For example, the Dark Scale can sever itself from the abyss by sacrificing one of its heads.

For bioluminescent sea urchins, discarding anything is pointless.

Essentially, in the rules of summoning will, the glowing sea urchin and the abyss are at the same hostile level.

Because both are the main targets of attacks on space barriers, and both are the highest sequence in the hostile level.

The more you understand the abyss, the more some questions that you couldn't understand before are gradually answered.

For example, why does the Abyss only invade worlds where intelligent life exists?
This phenomenon has been proven by countless examples.

Abyss invasions only occur in worlds where intelligent life exists.

A world without life is like barren land, so barren that even the abyss wouldn't deign to look upon it.

Previously, I didn't know what logic the Abyss used to select targets when it invaded.

Now everything is clear.

The Abyss invaded many worlds, but not for the sake of invasion itself.

The Abyss's goal is to transform more biological groups into the Abyss race, and then cultivate powerful Abyss Demons through the method of raising Gu.

Finally, guide the Abyss Demon God to attack the spatial barrier of the Chaos Sea.

Once the entire logical chain is clear, everything makes sense.

However, there is one most important question that remains unanswered.

"What is the black box? Is it on the other side of the spatial barrier?" Lu Heng asked the question again.

The glowing sea urchin sighed and replied, "That's also a question I've been trying to figure out. Perhaps only by breaking through the spatial barrier and finding the Naru Ascended Civilization can we find the answer."

Lu Heng pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you plan to do now? Are you still going to try to break through the spatial barrier?"

According to the glowing sea urchin, he once succeeded in breaking through the spatial barrier and seeing the nothingness behind it.

Although he ultimately did not witness the Naaru's ascension to civilization, nor did he see the black box, he at least broke through this spatial barrier.

Perhaps trying a different location would yield different results.

Glowing sea urchin: "I want to try again, but my identity as a traitor is an obstacle. Whenever I get close to the spatial barrier, powerful gods will be summoned to eliminate traitors."

Lu Heng roughly guessed the purpose of his approach and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Glowing sea urchin: "You guessed right, the reason I approached you is because you have similar traits to me."

"You also want to see the secrets behind the space barrier, which may become the basis for our cooperation, but this path is destined to be full of dangers. Once we fail, all our efforts will be in vain."

Lu Heng neither agreed nor refused, and said, "Tell me first, what do you want me to do?"

The glowing sea urchin pondered for a moment and replied, "I hope you maintain the state of the Chaos Law. As long as you maintain the Chaos attribute of the law, you will have an absolute advantage in the Chaos Sea."

"As long as your divine power continues to increase, you will eventually become the ruler of this chaotic sea."

"At that time, I hope you will subdue the other powerful gods and force them to agree to your demands."

"The request is simple: stop hunting me down, and I will try to break through the spatial barrier again to see what's on the other side."

Lu Heng pondered for a moment and said, "Maintaining the state of chaos is possible, although it would keep me in a dangerous situation."

Glowing Sea Urchin: "You don't need to worry about that. If your native world faces a crisis, I can promise to lend a hand. With the other gods you've joined forces with, protecting a native world won't be difficult."

Lu Heng nodded in agreement, saying, "Alright, I agree to maintain the state of Chaos Law, but my divine power is probably not up to your requirements. It won't be easy to continue to increase my divine power."

Glowing sea urchin: "Don't worry, since we're going to cooperate, I'll use my own methods to put you in the position of ruler of the Chaos Sea."

Upon hearing his promise, Lu Heng's heart pounded wildly, and he pressed for an answer: "I've absorbed too many kinds of divine power. I'm worried that if this continues, it will cause a conflict between the divine powers."

The glowing sea urchin chuckled, "The Law of Chaos is the best way to resolve conflicts between divine powers, because all laws of power are derived from the Law of Chaos. So this kind of problem isn't a big deal for you. If a conflict between divine powers really does occur, I'll teach you how to deal with it."

Looking at the enormous luminous object in front of him, Lu Heng suddenly realized something: "The main reason you chose me in the first place was because of the Chaos Law within me, right?"

The glowing sea urchin said, "That's one reason, but not the main one. There are indeed very few powerful gods who can maintain a state of chaotic law. Almost all god-level powerhouses, after ascending to godhood, choose a law to establish and dominate their world. You are an exception." (End of Chapter)
