412: Chapter 412 Returning to the Abyss of the Old Gods

Three days later.

The Materials were all ready.

Six hundred square meters of ancient metal armor plates were neatly stacked in the storage space.

Lu Sheng made his final deployments before setting off.

"I'm going alone this time. It will take about five to seven days."

Dao Yi stood on the square. "Rest assured, my Lord. Leave Earth to your subordinate."

"Profound Sound isn't coming with me. She'll stay on the island. Arrange for someone to keep an eye on her, but don't let her find out."

"Understood."

Lu Sheng didn't say more. His fourteen dragon wings unfurled, and with a flash, his figure soared into the sky.

No one followed him this time.

He passed through the atmosphere alone, through the metal armor defense layer, and entered deep space.

He pushed his speed to the limit.

A full-speed flight at Late Spirit Saint was significantly faster than at the Peak of the Middle Stage. The entire journey was shortened from the previous dozen or so hours to less than eight hours.

Eight hours later.

The outskirts of the Old God Abyss.

The Warship Graveyard.

Lu Sheng did not stop, flying directly through the wreckage area toward the core spherical space.

He stopped outside the spherical space.

The membrane woven from law threads floated quietly. Just as when he had left last time, there were no signs of it being tampered with.

"Let's get to work."

Lu Sheng took out the first batch of ancient metal armor plates from his storage space.

His plan was very clear—

He would build a physical barrier using the ancient metal armor on the outside of the spherical space's membrane. Then, he would carve multiple Law Formation Patterns on the surface of the armor to fuse the armor and the Law thread membrane into one.

This way, the defense Rank of the spherical space would be significantly improved.

Even if the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate came in person, breaking through this layer of defense would require a great deal of effort.

And during the time he spent toiling—

That would be the reaction time for Lu Sheng to receive the message and rush back to the Old God Abyss.

The armor plates floated in space. Lu Sheng used Space Law to precisely control the position of each plate, fitting them one by one onto the outside of the spherical space's membrane like a jigsaw puzzle.

Six hundred square meters of armor plates wasn't a lot. The surface area of the spherical space's membrane was far more than six hundred square meters.

But Lu Sheng didn't need full coverage.

He only needed to cover the key nodes—the weakest connections of the membrane, as well as the location of the entrance.

Three and a half hours later, the physical barrier was completed.

Next were the Law Formation Patterns.

This part was even more time-consuming.

Using his Late Spirit Saint Law power, Lu Sheng carved the array patterns onto the armor plates stroke by stroke. He used five types of Laws alternately: Space Law as the framework, Fire and Lightning for attack triggers, and Water and Wind for sensory early warnings.

Every stroke had to be extremely precise. If a line in the array pattern was even a millimeter too thick or too thin, the effectiveness of the entire array would be compromised.

Lu Sheng worked slowly and carefully.

One day.

Two days.

Three days.

By the end of the third day, the Law Formation Patterns were all carved.

Lu Sheng took a few steps back and looked at his results.

On the outside of the spherical space's membrane, several dark gold ancient metal armor plates were embedded at key positions. The armor plates were covered with dense Law Formation Patterns, and a grey light slowly flowed through the lines.

"Let's test it."

Lu Sheng raised his right hand, condensing a Law resonance light sphere.

He controlled the power of this light sphere to be at the level of a full-strength strike from a Mid Spirit Saint.

He flicked it out.

The light sphere crashed into the armor plate.

Boom!

A violent explosion occurred. The energy shockwave spread through space.

After the shockwave dissipated—

The armor plate was completely intact. There wasn't even a mark on the surface. The Law Formation Patterns briefly lit up under the impact of the explosion before returning to normal.

"It completely withstood a full-strength attack from a Mid Spirit Saint."

Lu Sheng nodded in satisfaction.

What about a Peak Spirit Saint?

He had no way to simulate the attack strength of a Peak Spirit Saint. However, according to the design parameters of the Law Formation Patterns, it would take at least three to five consecutive full-strength attacks from a Peak Spirit Saint to potentially penetrate this layer of defense.

Three to five full-strength attacks—

Based on the spirit source consumption and attack intervals of a Peak Spirit Saint, that would take about ten to fifteen minutes.

Ten to fifteen minutes.

That's enough.

The flight time from the Old God Abyss to Earth was eight hours.

But if Luo Tianfei's monitoring equipment issued a warning when the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate approached the Old God Abyss—

He could set off in advance and arrive before the Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Venerate reached the Old God Abyss.

"The timeline is fine."

Lu Sheng had completed all his preparations.

He took one last look at the reinforced spherical space, then turned and flew toward Earth.

The Old God Abyss side was temporarily safe.

Next—

It was time to wait for the final reply from the Myriad Manifestations Divine Court.
