The plane teleportation had not yet completed, and Herag already sensed the familiar aura of the Abyss Plane rushing towards him.
After Herag steadied himself, he looked around and found himself in a forest.
He looked up at the starry sky and quickly determined his location, finding the position of the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor’s Lava Cave.
The distance wasn’t far, at least not far by Herag’s speed.
Herag stood in place for a while, waiting for the Toad.
When the Toad returned to the Abyss Plane, it could sense Herag’s location, but it would take so ti to get there, just like many years ago.
Herag waited for a few minutes, and spatial ripples appeared beside him, from which the Toad erged.
"It seems you’re not far." Herag smiled.
The Toad jumped onto his shoulder and said, "No, very far, farther than ever before. It’s just that my strength has improved significantly, so my speed is much faster."
The Toad had traversed space to co over after sensing Herag’s direction.
Without Herag’s specific coordinates, it couldn’t teleport directly through the internal space passage; it had to traverse through space.
The Abyss Plane was vast and naturally required so ti.
"Let’s go." Herag nodded and began heading towards the Lava Cave of the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor.
With a single step, Herag crossed over a thousand kiloters, traversing vast areas.
His traveling speed was no slower than the Toad’s space traversal, perhaps even faster.
Herag could travel with such abandon because of his high bloodline status.
Even crossing over the territories of so demons, those demons dared not say anything, furious but silent.
It only took Herag half a day to reach the vicinity of the Lava Cave.
Though it only took half a day, considering Herag’s speed was incredibly fast, the Abyss Plane indeed was vast.
Herag couldn’t sense the full extent of the Abyss Plane, it seed endless, with no perceivable borders.
Outside the Lava Cave lay vast plains, with only the center being a volcanic and lava area, from afar, smoke could be seen billowing from the volcano.
Just as Herag arrived, a Thousand-Eyed Demon materialized in the void ahead.
"I co to pay respects to the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor." Herag said in the Abyss Plane common tongue.
The Thousand-Eyed Demon blinked, sent back a respectful ssage, and withdrew to report.
The vast plain appeared barren, but in reality, countless Thousand-Eyed Demons inhabited the void here.
Soon, that Thousand-Eyed Demon reappeared, informing Herag that he and the Toad could proceed inside.
The Toad stood on Herag’s shoulder, cautiously observing the surroundings; it was its first ti in the Ancestor’s territory.
Previously, these places were forbidden zones to it, absolutely dangerous areas not to approach.
Despite the courteous deanor of these Thousand-Eyed Demons, it was because Herag was present.
The Toad believed, should it co here alone, innurable powerful Thousand-Eyed Demons would swarm up at any mont, killing it on this plain.
"We et again, Herag." The massive black eyeball of the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor appeared ahead, blinking as it spoke.
Herag paused for a mont and then smiled, "So you know."
The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor laughed eerily, "My big eye is not for show, but it doesn’t matter. In the Abyss Plane, it’s all about bloodline."
Herag hadn’t expected the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor to ntion his human na right upon eting.
He had never revealed this na and had no idea how the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor learned of it.
Herag glanced at the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor’s massive black eyeball, guessing in his heart it was likely so bloodline talent ability of the Ancestor, probably capable of seeing through many things.
It seed the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor had seen many things upon their first eting.
At that ti, Herag was doing his best to conceal his aura and information, unaware he had long been seen through.
Herag had underestimated the Ancestor’s abilities, his attempts at hiding appeared naive and laughable in front of the Ancestor.
It was as if a child with greasy lips was confidently denying having stolen a chicken leg.
The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor and others didn’t expose Herag back then, perhaps to avoid embarrassing him.
Herag suddenly recalled that the Skeleton King’s Soul Fire seed to flicker briefly then, as if joyfully, probably laughing at him.
Reflecting on that scene, Herag felt it was very likely...
The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor laughed, "We’ve dealt with the Wizard Plane for so many years, how could we not sll that whiff of Wizard Plane aura on you."
The Abyss Plane had its own aura, and naturally, the Wizard Plane had the aura of the Wizard Plane.
Only because Herag had been in the Wizard Plane for so long, he hadn’t sensed it himself.
"No need to worry, I’ve recently observed that the Boundary Land is undergoing a fusion with the Wizard Plane, seems it’s finally planning to separate from our Abyss Plane, saving us the trouble of intervening." The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor said.
The Abyss Plane had always been observing the movents of the Wizard Plane and the Boundary Land; sothing as significant as plane fusion couldn’t go unnoticed by them.
The Thousand-Eyed Demon Race excelled at observation, and under the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor were many Thousand-Eyed Demons responsible for monitoring the movents of the Wizard Plane and the Boundary Land.
They discovered the fusion of the Wizard Plane and the Boundary Land imdiately.
Without Herag, the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor would surely find ways to disrupt it.
Although plane fusion was an internal matter of the two planes, and external interference was difficult,
with so many Abyssal Cultists, soone would successfully intervene.
However, because of Herag, the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor did not send anyone to interfere but quietly awaited the completion of the plane fusion.
The goal of the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor and others was always to have the Boundary Land separate from the Abyss Plane, so the Abyss Plane could leave this place.
Now with the Boundary Land rging with the Wizard Plane, it automatically resolved this trouble for them.
Adding to that the relationship with Herag, naturally, the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor and others did not interfere further.
After contemplating these matters, Herag said, "Thank you."
"No need, every Ancestor has a few planes to themselves, it’s a trivial matter. Rest assured, we will no longer intervene in the Wizard Plane and the Boundary Land. With your current strength, these two planes should be under your control, right?" The Thousand-Eyed Ancestor said.
Herag did not deny it, just nodded slightly.
The actual situation was roughly as the Thousand-Eyed Ancestor said, but likely not exactly as he imagined.
Herag wasn’t enamored with power, nor did he care for many material possessions.
What he cared about from beginning to end was the enhancent of his own strength, which was the essence.
