From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

"I'm afraid a true god might descend."

When Lu Heng voiced his concerns, everyone around him felt their hearts skip a beat.

The storm over the tidal sea has been ongoing for more than ten days, and the cause of the storm has yet to be determined.

There must be a reason why such a large storm occurred in a season when stormy weather is extremely rare.

The most likely explanation is that behind this storm lies a powerful entity, possibly a deity.

"Impossible... Could a true god really descend?" Upon hearing this conjecture, Sona felt as if a huge boulder had been placed on her heart.

If a true god truly descends, then the sea monsters will inevitably bear the wrath of that god.

Queen Aureanna pondered for a long time before saying, "This possibility exists. From the perspective of the balance of the Abyss Battlefield, we have three demigods on our side."

"For the Abyss to win, it must recruit an equal number of demigods to achieve balance."

"In other words, the Abyss will either summon three demigods or send down a demon god directly; both possibilities exist."

Sona's chest heaved violently. Although she didn't want to believe it, she knew very well that the Elf Queen was right.

If a demon god from the abyss were to descend, it would be a catastrophe for the sea monster race.

Serian tensed up and asked, "High Priest, if a demon god descends, the situation will spiral out of control."

Sona pressed her hand down and said in a deep voice, "I know, but now the die is cast, and there is no room for retreat."

The Abyss Battlefield has appeared, and the Abyss has issued a call to arms. Even if the attack on the Blackscale Demon's territory is cancelled now, the gods in the storm will not retreat.

There's no point in backing down now.

Lu Heng said, "Things have come to this point, what we need to do is launch a full-scale attack while preparing for the worst."

"If there is an abyss demon in the storm, we may be defeated."

"If it really comes to that, the Siren Clan needs to make the worst-case scenario plan, which is to migrate away from the Vaschi Sea and temporarily hide in other seas."

"I know this plan will be a heavy blow to the Siren Clan, but it is the best option given our disadvantageous situation."

"Of course, we will do our best to win this battle, but we also need to make plans to preserve our tribe if we are defeated."

Sona nodded vigorously and agreed, "I understand. I will arrange the migration plan."

The purpose of this attack on the Blackscale Demon territory is to reclaim the Bodi Sea, the former home of the Siren Clan.

She initiated this attack, and now that a formidable enemy has emerged, she also needs to shoulder this responsibility.

Queen Aureanna comforted her, "You don't need to worry so much. According to the rules of the world, true gods will be restricted by the laws of the world when they cross worlds. This is why true gods choose to stay in their original world most of the time."

"Therefore, even if there really is a demon god from the abyss in the storm, he will not stay in the Tidal Sea for too long."

"If the situation becomes unfavorable, choose to retreat. As long as you delay long enough, this demon will leave."

The Siren race also has a deep-rooted history; the Sea God is enshrined in the Vashj Temple.

Therefore, Sona also knows some of the rules governing the existence of true gods.

Therefore, she knew that what Aureanna said was true; true gods are indeed bound by the laws of the world, and therefore will not easily leave their world.

Of course, this is relative. If a true god really wants to enter a certain world, the laws of that world cannot stop them.

Lu Heng had also heard about some secrets concerning the gods.

The materials provided by the Zero Civilization also included some information related to deities.

Looking at the storm in the sky, Lu Heng guessed, "I think I have a rough idea of ​​why the storm is happening. The storm is changing the laws of the Dragon Sleep World, creating the conditions for the demon god behind it to descend."

Queen Aureanna raised an eyebrow and agreed, "That's what I think too. To confirm whether a demon god will descend, we can check if the world's laws have changed at the center of the storm."

“In that case, I’ll go take a look at the Eye of the Storm. If there’s a change in the laws of the world, the answer will be clear.” Lu Heng said, getting up to prepare to set off.

At present, the idea that a demon god will descend is just speculation.

Whether a demon god will descend will affect the subsequent action plan.

Therefore, confirming the answer first is essential to determining how to adjust subsequent actions.

Queen Aureanna also stood up and said, "I'll go with you."

Sona also wanted to go see for herself, but the Siren Clan needed her to stay and oversee things.

The storm is so fierce that it has caused many rumors to circulate within the Siren Clan.

……

Lu Heng and Oriana set off, flying into the air towards the center of the storm.

The two moved quickly and soon reached the eye of the storm.

When we were on the outer edge of the storm, the sky was filled with howling winds that swirled around the storm's center. The winds were so strong that it was impossible to fly below the fifth rank.

As we approached the eye of the storm, the wind actually decreased, and at the very center, the wind even stopped.

Instead of rushing into the eye of the storm, the two approached slowly from the outside.

Both of them were already demigods, and they extended their demigod vision to observe the environment at the center of the storm.

When they were still ten kilometers from the eye of the storm, Lu Heng had already sensed something was wrong.

Queen Aureanna gave the answer almost simultaneously: "It seems we really are facing a true demon god."

Both of them discovered that a special region with properties similar to chaotic space had been created at the center of the storm.

The characteristic of chaotic space is that there are no regular world laws, and everything is chaotic.

When a demon enters a world, it will be subject to the laws of that world. However, as long as the laws of that world are reduced to a state of chaos, these restrictions will no longer exist.

This storm is creating a chaotic zone.

Lu Heng pondered for a moment and asked, "Is there a way to destroy this chaotic space?"

Orianna shook her head and replied, "It's difficult. Even if we could destroy it, it wouldn't be very effective. The reason this demon god created the Chaos Region is simply so that it wouldn't be bound by the laws of the world when it descends."

"Even if this chaotic region is destroyed, he can still descend. The only difference is whether the world's laws restrict him more or less."

"Moreover, this chaotic region is already very large, and trying to destroy it will only deplete our divine power prematurely."

Lu Heng nodded and said, "Let's go back first and discuss our next steps."

The two have discovered the chaotic region and confirmed that a demon god will descend.

Therefore, subsequent actions must be adjusted.

……

The two returned to the Vashj Temple and shared their findings.

Sona's chest heaved violently as she felt immense pressure.

If a demon god descends, the Siren Clan will be severely damaged even if they are not wiped out, and they may not even be able to protect the Vashj Temple.

Now she has something even more to worry about: originally, the seven civilizations were allied, but now a powerful enemy at the level of a demon god has appeared. If the allied civilizations withdraw, their sea monster race will have to bear the consequences alone.

This battle, originally intended to reclaim the ancient territory of the Siren Clan, has now turned into a calamity caused by demons.

If the Siren Clan is truly wiped out because of this incident, then she will be the greatest sinner.

Therefore, Sona observed Lu Heng's expression with a worried look, trying to discern his inner thoughts.

She knew very well that the reason the Swordholders Alliance was able to come together was entirely because of Lu Heng.

Only if Lu Heng is willing to stay and help her will the other civilizations stay.

Even if three demigods are no match for a demon god, they will at least not be defeated.

If she were alone, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lu Heng saw the worry on her face and said in a deep voice, "I will do my best to help the Siren Clan resist the Demon God."

Queen Orianna naturally saw through Sona's little scheme and laughed heartily, "High risk brings high reward. I'd really like to see what a true god is like."

Sona, having received the promises from the two demigods, finally breathed a sigh of relief and showed a grateful expression.

Lu Heng steered the conversation back to the main topic: "Let's discuss our next course of action."

Of all the sword wielders present, Xavier Matrix was the most relaxed.

Because he sent nanorobots to be responsible for the preparation and use of nuclear weapons.

Even if the battle was fierce, the only thing he lost were nanobots.

Nanobots are expendable in war, so they pose little challenge to him.

In addition, his computer-based thinking made him the calmest of all.

After calculations, Xavier Matrix first raised a question: "Now there is a crucial question: can we determine the exact time of this demon's descent?"

Queen Aureanna pondered for a moment before replying, "The exact time is hard to determine, but we can estimate it based on the chaotic area at the center of the storm; it will probably arrive in about fifteen days."

"Of course, this time cannot be guaranteed to be accurate, because this demon god can descend at any time. The only difference is that the earlier the time, the more restrictions it will be subject to the laws of the world."

Xavier Matrix continued, "Knowing the approximate time is enough. From now on, we have fifteen days."

"In fifteen days, we will have to face a powerful demon god."

"Therefore, we can divide this battle into two phases: the first is the offensive phase, and the second is the defensive phase."

"We can use these fifteen days to eliminate the Blackscale Demons as much as possible."

"The more Blackscale Demons we kill, the less pressure we'll face in the defensive phase."

Serian asked worriedly, "What if our offensive is too fierce and causes the demon behind the storm to descend prematurely?"

Before Xavier Matrix could speak, Lu Heng answered the question directly:
"If this demon god descends earlier, it will actually be to our advantage. The earlier he descends, the more restrictions he will be subject to the laws of the world after his descent."

“I even think we should force him to descend earlier, which would reduce the pressure when we fight the demon god later.”

Queen Aureanna agreed, "Yes, I think so too. Forcing him to arrive earlier is a better option."

Sona took a deep breath, slammed her fist on the long table, and decided, "Alright, then let's use these fifteen days to launch a full-scale attack on the Blackscale Demon and force the demon god in the storm to descend ahead of schedule."

……

It is now the sixteenth day since the Abyss Battlefield appeared. According to Queen Aureanna's calculations, the demon god in the storm will descend in fifteen days, which is the thirty-first day of Dionysus in the Abyss Battlefield.

Due to time pressure, we now need to race against time.

Lu Heng and Sona's original attack plan was to take it slow and gradually take down the Blackscale Demon's territory.

But now the situation has changed, and we must speed things up.

Therefore, Lu Heng, Orianna, and Sona, the three demigods, led the Swordholders' alliance and launched a full-scale attack on the Blackscale Demons in the Bodi Sea.

On the seventeenth day, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky.

Led by three demigods, they stormed into the territory of the Blackscale Demons, leaving no Blackscale Demon unscathed in their wake.

The entire sea was covered with the broken corpses of the Blackscale Demon.

Even high-ranking Great Demons within the Blackscale Demon Clan cannot withstand the combined might of three demigods for long.

Coral City fell in a single day.

Day .

It seems that the demon god in the storm learned of the massacre of the Blackscale Demons, causing the storm to become even more violent.

The tidal bore's waves become even more turbulent under the storm, often whipping up giant waves hundreds of meters high, as if the entire ocean is boiling.

Lu Heng, Orianna, and Sona split into three groups to attack the Blackscale Demon's territory, specifically the Blackscale Trench, the Claw Seabed, and the Deep Sea Nest.

All three are gathering places for Blackscale Demons, including many high-ranking Great Demons, but they are still powerless against demigods.

In two days, all three areas were completely cleaned up, and countless black scales floated in the seawater.

Day 24.

The Swordholder Alliance continued to penetrate deeper into the Bodi Sea, clearing out the gathering places of Blackscale Demons of all sizes.

During the cleanup, some of the Blackscale Demons escaped into the deep sea.

The attack was time-sensitive, leaving no time to pursue the fleeing Blackscale Demons.

The three teams must continue onward and reunite before reaching the Temple of Bodhi.

Day 26.

The time for the Storm Demon God's descent is fast approaching, with only five days left.

By now, the number of Blackscale Demons slaughtered by the Swordholder Alliance is astonishing, almost wiping out most of the Blackscale Demons in the Bodi Sea.

However, even at this point, the demon god in the storm still refused to descend, completely unconcerned about the slaughter of the Blackscale Demons.

After ten days of fighting, the three teams led by Lu Heng, Orianna, and Sona met up a thousand kilometers outside the Temple of Bodhi to rest and prepare for their attack.

The three sat down to discuss the results of the past ten days and the next offensive plan.

"How have you been along the way?" Sona was very grateful to her allies who came to help her.

"We didn't encounter any danger along the way. The Blackscale Demons didn't even put up much resistance; their first reaction upon seeing us was to run away," Su Muyu explained, recounting the results of the past ten days.

Lin Zeyu laughed heartily, "I had a blast killing people this time. I leveled up three times in a row, basically looting loot boxes all the way up."

Seeing the guy's smug look, Lu Heng reminded him, "The Blackscale Demon is not that weak. I suspect there are even more powerful demons hiding in the Temple of Bodi, possibly even demigods."

Sona nodded and replied, "That's right. Actually, a few years ago, I suspected that there were demigods among the Blackscale Demons. Fortunately, I retrieved the complete Scepter of the Sea God, which was enough to intimidate the Blackscale Demons."

"Therefore, we must be extremely careful when attacking the Temple of Bodhi, as we may very well encounter demigods." (End of Chapter)
