From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 977 - 562: Battle Against the Demon God

In the outer space of the Dragon Sleep World.

A Demon God flew over the Chaos Sea, surprisingly a Demon God from the Horned Demon Race.

This Horned Demon God was as majestic as a mountain, covered in dark red scales, surrounded by a swirling demonic aura like ink clouds.

Eighty ferocious demon horns stood on its head, resembling a crown.

Its scarlet eyes were as deep as a spiritual abyss. The bloody eyes exuded a murderous intent filled with madness.

Fangs protruded from its massive mouth, a bone charm chain wrapped around its neck, its body was strong, and bone spurs grew from its arms, with black claws capable of tearing through space.

This Demon God was indeed the strongest existence of the Horned Demon Race—Moragorong.

Such a terrifying Demon God, in any world, would be enough to make countless beings shiver in fear.

However, Lu Heng really dragged the Totem Stone Pillar, passed through the Space Barrier, came to the Outer Space, and stood in front of the Demon God of the Horned Demon Race.

Moragorong was very surprised; he didn't expect a demigod to dare to come to Outer Space.

He thought for a moment and guessed a possibility: "Pitiful reptile, you haven't even seen the survival laws of the Divine, yet you dare to be so arrogant.

"The Totem Stone Pillar you hold can indeed let you walk across the inner world unchecked.

"But unfortunately, this slaughter has blinded you with confidence, making you think you can challenge a Demon God.

"If you really think so, your death will only be because you are too foolish."

Other demigods might indeed make some foolish decisions before understanding the survival laws of the True Divine World.

But it was absolutely impossible for Lu Heng.

Lu Heng looked at the other party calmly and said in a calm tone, "As long as you don't run, it's fine."

Moragorong wanted to laugh, wanted to laugh wildly, because this demigod before him was truly foolish to the point of tears.

He glanced coldly at Lu Heng and said, "Since you came bringing a divine artifact, I will let you die without pain."

With that, he raised his hand, spread his five fingers, aimed at Lu Heng, and suddenly clenched his fist with force.

Boom!

A force of crushing space pressed in from all directions.

Lu Heng swung the Totem Stone Pillar horizontally to block this crushing space power.

Moragorong's strike was not at full power; after all, using Divine Power against a demigod was already overkill, so there was no need to go all out.

Therefore, the power of this strike was enough to crush a demigod, but not to destroy the Totem Stone Pillar.

The Totem Stone Pillar blocked the strike, and Moragorong let out a cold snort, flapped his wings forward to swoop down, and with a fist clenched, punched forward.

Boom!

A terrifying divine power that shattered space swept over the Chaos Sea, rolling towards Lu Heng.

Lu Heng immediately threw out the Totem Stone Pillar, activated the divine power of the pillar, and released the [Soul-devouring Abyss].

A divine power, as earth-shattering as a tsunami, swept across, enveloping the entire Chaos Sea, turning the surrounding heavens and earth into a Soul-devouring Abyss.

Countless demon souls wailed and shrieked in the Soul-devouring Abyss.

The space-suppressing power of the Soul-devouring Abyss offset Moragorong's attack.

Moragorong was once again surprised because he discovered that this demigod before him actually wielded the power of a divine artifact.

Normally, demigods do not have the ability to wield True God treasures.

This is a difference in power level, an insurmountable gap; a demigod simply does not qualify to wield the divine power of a True God treasure.

However, Lu Heng utilized the divine power of the Totem Stone Pillar, forcibly blocking Moragorong's second strike.

Although surprised, Moragorong was not worried.

This bit of surprise could only delay for a while; for a Demon God, crushing a demigod was as simple as crushing an ant.

Even if this ant was larger than usual, it was merely a matter of adding an extra stamp.

Moragorong snorted coldly, pulled out the Divine Artifact Space Giant Blade from the void, and dove down, chopping towards Lu Heng.

This strike shattered the heavens and the earth; not to mention demigods, even if a True God were present, they would have difficulty resisting.

At this moment.

Lu Heng still remained calm and steady, channeling divine power within himself, connecting with the divine power within the Totem Stone Pillar, and then uttered, "Open!"

Streams of divine power poured into the bottom of the Totem Stone Pillar, triggering a Law Vortex at the very center of the Soul-devouring Abyss, where a star gate appeared like a black hole.

It was indeed the Divine Star Gate opened with divine power.

As soon as the Divine Star Gate opened, a roar echoed through the heavens and earth from within.

Immediately afterward, a crimson giant snake's head, neither dragon nor snake, emerged from the star gate, opening its mouth to spew Demon God flames at Moragorong.

Moragorong cleaved the flames with a blade, retreating from the fiery range.

He was even more surprised to see the suddenly appearing crimson giant snake.

Moreover, from this crimson giant snake, he sensed a mighty aura at the Demon God level.

A Demon God had appeared!

At that moment, he finally understood where Lu Heng's confidence came from.

However, Moragorong still did not feel worried because he clearly sensed that the Demon God aura emanating from this crimson giant snake was weaker than his.

This meant he still held the advantage, and as for the additional demigod, it could be ignored.

The suddenly appearing crimson snake head was, of course, the red head among the three heads of the Dark Scale.

The reason Lu Heng dared to confront Moragorong in the Outer Space was simple: he had already communicated with the Dark Scale before making his decision.

To a Demon God, the temptation of devouring divine power is irresistible.

In other words, if one can swallow a Demon God and seize the Divine Power without incurring costs, or with minimal cost, what's there to hesitate about? 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Besides, the Dark Scale just lost a head, losing nearly a third of its Divine Power, and now it most needs to replenish the Divine Power.

Therefore, after Lu Heng communicated with him, they hit it off and immediately joined forces.

Of course, under normal circumstances, it's impossible to cooperate across such vast distances.

Even if the Dark Scale sets off immediately, it would take a long time to reach the Outer Space of the Dragon Sleep World.

As for the Star Gate, it can't teleport a Demon God.

The reason is similar to the restrictions imposed on True Gods by the World Law.

The Star Gate teleportation has not only restrictions on the quality of the material but also a hidden one, which is the limit on the highest Energy Level.

A Star Gate opened by a Fifth Transition Stage Star Realm Traveler cannot teleport a Demon God.

Even if the Star Realm Traveler Class is blessed with Demigod Power, it still doesn't work.

In fact, since becoming a Demigod, Lu Heng's Star Gates could teleport a massive quantity of material, capable of transporting an entire team of Sword Holders at once, but the highest Energy Level restriction couldn't be broken.

Until he formed a Spiritual Connection with the Totem Stone Pillar and through wielding its Divine Power, gained a portion of Demon God Power.

Thus, he could open the Divine Star Gate and teleport a Demon God over.

However, Lu Heng is only a Demigod, so the Divine Star Gate he opened had limitations, and the main body of the Dark Scale was too massive.

Opening one Divine Star Gate could only let one head of the Dark Scale come through.

...

Moragorong gazed coldly at the red giant snake emerging from the Star Gate, swinging the Space Giant Blade, launching a fierce assault on the red snake head.

As a great battle erupted between the two sides.

Lu Heng was not idle; he continued to channel Divine Power and opened a second Divine Star Gate.

Roar!

With a roar, a second head of the Dark Scale emerged, opening its mouth to spout Ice Flame at Moragorong.

Seeing two giant snakes appeared, Moragorong quickly realized he wasn't facing a single Demon God Level giant snake but a multi-headed snake.

The Divine Power of the two heads combined was already comparable to his.

Seeing this, Moragorong began to feel like retreating.

Fighting between Demon Gods of the same Level rarely leads to outcomes.

Even if one side gets injured, they have the means to escape.

Therefore, when Demon Gods of the same Level encounter one another, they typically won't fight to the death. Instead, after gauging each other's Divine Power Level, they each retreated.

After all, when Demon Gods of the same Level clash, if both sides end up severely injured, a more powerful Demon God might take advantage.

The story of the sandpiper and the clam fighting and both helped the fisherman applies just as well in the world of True Gods.

Though inclined to retreat, Moragorong wasn't afraid but simply did not wish to waste time.

So he had no need to flee and wasn't in a hurry to retreat; he planned to test the opponent's strength first, then retreat slowly.

With his strength, he could easily retreat unscathed.

So he continued to wield the Space Giant Blade, battling with the two snakeheads.

After a few rounds of fighting, Moragorong confirmed that the Divine Power of the Dark Scale was quite equal to his, neither able to claim victory.

Losing interest in continuing the fight, he turned to leave.

At this moment.

A much smaller White Crystal Snake Head emerged, adhering to the scales on the back of the Dark Blue Snake Head, opening its mouth to unleash a burst of Divine Power.

The Divine Power expanded, connecting with the Totem Stone Pillar.

The Divine Power of the Totem Stone Pillar got reinforced, elevating the Soul-devouring Abyss to Town Abyss, sealing all surrounding space completely.

Moragorong discovered that the thousand-mile space surrounding him, centered on the Totem Stone Pillar, formed a sealed space, even a nascent world, and the Laws began to shift.

The Laws of the Chaos Sea in Outer Space are inherently chaotic, lacking attributes.

Any Demon God or True God in the Chaotic Space is unrestricted by their own Law Power.

Now, the Soul-devouring Abyss emanating from the Totem Stone Pillar had ascended to Town Abyss, beginning to influence the Chaos Law.

Although this influence was not yet enough to alter the Laws, the entirety of Town Abyss had become a sealed world, making escape quite difficult.

If it were merely the seal of the Town Abyss, Moragorong would not be worried.

After all, for a Demon God to break through the Space Barrier and leave wouldn't be so hard, but to do so in the presence of a Demon God of equal Level is not so easy.

At this moment, Moragorong finally felt something was amiss.

The whole affair seemed like a meticulous trap that initially presented a Demigod.

This weak Demigod provoked him, making him feel ridiculous.

Soon after, the Demigod summoned a Demon God.

The Demon God initially had one head, then a second appeared, and then a third.

Finally, turning the Chaos Sea into Town Abyss, completely trapping him here.

Up to this point, Moragorong still did not feel fear, knowing that even in a life-or-death battle among Demon Gods, he might not lose.

Moreover, he had a trump card in his hand.

His only concern was whether the situation would undergo an even more significant shift.

After all, his opponent had gone from a weak Demigod to a Demon God of the same Level, and if an even more powerful being appeared after this, it would be troublesome.

Hence, Moragorong abandoned the plan for a death match, raised the Space Giant Blade, and prepared to chop through the seal of Town Abyss to escape first.
