"We will act independently," said the Cold Night Matriarch of the Extreme Cold. "We each require different other resources, but we all share the same understanding. Gathering together will inevitably lead to distribution problems. It's better for each of us to take our own chances and reap what we sow."
"I agree." The Ash Lord of Ashes ' voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and his words were concise. He wasn't familiar with anyone, and judging from his attitude, he clearly didn't intend to get to know many of them.
"I'm actually planning to act in conjunction with the Wind Disaster side," Zhang Xinfan, the leader of the Mingxin Society, said softly from Haiming's side. "The Supreme Abyss has given me considerable authority, allowing me to mobilize Abyss Legions up to the Annihilation level. This means I can command at least three Dark Annihilation Abyss experts for a short period of time."
"What level exactly does this level correspond to? Could you explain?" Lin Hui asked curiously. " The Annihilation level is basically the World Destroyer level in the general sense. To be qualified to be called Annihilation, one must have a record of destroying more than three worlds. I don't know exactly how strong it is, but I certainly couldn't beat it; the gap is huge," Zhang Xinfan replied.
Lin Hui had been exposed to his current energy level, which was basically equivalent to his own.
His Divine Power and the level of Disaster Energy within his body were similar to his own.
Of course, in actual combat, it's not enough to just compare these paper statistics, but at least it shows that Zhang Xinfan's level is not much worse than mine. We are all people on the same level.
The fact that the Annihilation- class is so highly praised by him shows that its power is absolutely guaranteed.
"Really? Then I'm kind of looking forward to it..." Lin Hui mentally simulated the specific situation at that time and began to give a targeted introduction to the strength of the Endless Divine Realm to the four parties.
"There's a problem," the Cold Night Matriarch said. "Because our systems are different, since we're all going to assemble elite forces to storm the Divine Realm, we naturally need to understand each other's approximate strengths beforehand, so..."
"It's alright. Once everyone's here, we can spar a bit," the Ash Lord stated frankly. "Different systems, different ranks, and the power they wield can't be compared in a uniform way, so direct combat is the quickest way to determine who's stronger."
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded slightly.
"In that case, how about I decide the location?" Lin Hui said with a smile.
"Can."
"Can."
"No problem."
They all agreed.
"Considering the large number of powerful individuals in the Divine Realm, I first arranged a small-scale infiltration test. This will also allow everyone to determine whether it is worthwhile to continue with large-scale investment," Lin Hui continued.
"Agreed." The group was no longer divided.

Several days later, at the Nine Heavens Gate.
The once desolate and quiet Nine Heavens Gate Sect headquarters is now officially welcoming powerful invitees from other realms.
The interior of the Nine Heavens Gate is composed of rows of white mountain peaks.
The Cold Night Matriarch, with a human body and a snake tail, slowly emerged from the Heaven-Turning Wheel.
The Heaven-Turning Wheel is the only safe teleportation point within the Nine Heavens Gate. Invited individuals who are not members can legally enter the sect from here without being destroyed by the protective array.
This enormous three-tiered blue-gold Heaven-Turning Wheel, after many years, has finally resumed its original function.
The Cold Night Matriarch was only the height of an ordinary person, wearing an exquisite set of White Bone armor and a purple cloak. Her snake tail twisted slowly as she walked, leaving long, frosty white trails on the ground.
From a distance, she looked no different from any other beautiful snake woman.
"This is the vanguard's assembly point?" She narrowed her eyes, her blue flames-burning eyes scanning the surroundings, her pupils contracting slightly.
The terrifying, boundless wind and flood currents surrounding her caused the extreme cold within her body to involuntarily contract, as if in response to stress, keeping her on high alert at all times.
" Wind Disaster... dissolve all calamities..." The Cold Night Matriarch murmured softly, then slowly moved forward toward Lin Hui, who was already waiting in the open space ahead.
"Welcome, Extreme Cold is always the first to respond to me. Thank you very much for your cooperation." Lin Hui raised one hand and gave a slight Nine Heavens Gate salute.
"Because it's urgent," the Cold Night Matriarch replied. " The Extreme Cold have repeatedly failed in their attempts to seize resources from many Black Domain, and the overall scale of the calamity is showing signs of shrinking. This is something that must be stopped. Therefore, once this is confirmed, we will spare no expense!"
She stated her current situation very directly.
"Could derivative calamities also be threatened with shrinkage?" Lin Hui asked in surprise.
"Of course. Apart from the Source Disaster, all other calamities must operate and multiply on their own, otherwise they will only be swallowed up and destroyed. The calamities themselves don't care, but we, the Fusionist within them, don't want to see this happen, which is why there are various huge forces within the major calamities," the Cold Night Matriarch patiently explained.
As she spoke, she returned the greeting slightly and bowed respectfully in the direction of Seven Extinctions.
This was also Lin Hui's goal.
Because no matter who comes to the Nine Heavens Gate, the moment they step Heaven-Turning Wheel, they will immediately feel the terrifying power of Seven Extinctions, which is like a dark cloud covering the entire sky.
"Please wait a moment, you can rest here. Other friends will be arriving soon." Lin Hui pointed to the spacious white Daoist palace not far away, which was a building specifically used to receive and rest guests.
The Cold Night Matriarch nodded slightly. After sensing the aura of Seven Extinctions, her attitude was noticeably gentler than before.
With a flash of light, she suddenly entered the Dao Palace to rest for a while.
About three minutes later, the Heaven-Turning Wheel lit up with blue light again, and the three wheels slowly began to rotate.
Mingxin Hui leader Zhang Xinfan slowly stepped out of the circle, clasped his hands in a fist salute towards Lin Hui, and then bowed deeply in the direction of Qimie.
Behind him followed a tall, thin, Hai Ming monster covered in jet-black spiked armor, with nine pairs of tiny, spike-like wings on its back.
"Brother Lin, we've finally seen your backing. It wasn't easy," Zhang Xinfan said with a wry smile.
"Brother Zhang, you flatter me. And who is this gentleman?"
" Yan Jiu, this time you're going to one of the Annihilation Abyss's locations with me," Zhang Xinfan briefly introduced.
The other party nodded to Lin Hui as a greeting. The two were quickly led into the Dao Palace.
Next was the Ash Lord, a small humanoid giant composed entirely of a large mass of gray mist, with flickering golden light inside. As soon as it flew Heaven-Turning Wheel, it shuddered and quickly condensed into human form, bowed deeply in the direction of Seven Extinctions, and then nodded to Lin Hui.
"Are you alone?" Lin Hui asked.
"That's enough," the Ash Lord replied calmly. He then ignored Lin Hui and entered the Dao Palace.
Lin Hui didn't care. The power of Ashes has a great influence on emotions and will. This guy was able to become the Ash Lord, which is obviously due to his extremely powerful emotional talent.
The last one is missing: Hell.
Lin Hui waited for about ten minutes, and seeing that the agreed time was about to be exceeded, he was about to ask the Duke.
Buzz.
Just then, the Heaven-Turning Wheel trembled slightly and began to spin faster, with a dazzling golden-red light emanating from its center.
Swish!
The figure of the True Lord of Seven Destructions quietly appeared behind Lin Hui.
"Fellow Daoist, your presence is a great honor to welcome you." A slightly manic smile appeared on his face as he looked at the Heaven-Turning Wheel.
A tall, golden-red figure slowly emerged from within the Heaven-Turning Wheel.
The figure was clad in magnificent gold and red armor, wearing an inverted triangular, fully enclosed helmet, and had a golden, stiff, compassionate face with closed eyes.
A miniature, burning star revolved behind it, and as soon as it stepped Heaven-Turning Wheel, it released rings of enormous, terrifyingly high-temperature scorching radiation.
Lin Hui's expression changed slightly.
Even his current physical body was feeling a burning pain. One can imagine just how high the temperature had reached.
It should be noted that his current body is protected by the Surrounding Wind, which, combined with his physical strength, means that under normal circumstances, a temperature of tens of thousands of degrees is no different from taking a bath.
But this guy...
He unconsciously channeled his inner energy to cover his body surface, resisting the spreading high-temperature radiation.
" Nine Heavens Gate? Weren't you long ago swallowed up by the tides of history?" The newcomer's voice was neither male nor female, but carried a faint gentleness.
"Oh? It seems you knew about my Nine Heavens Gate?" Seven Extinctions raised an eyebrow.
"I've heard a little about it. Since you're the partners this time, it should be much smoother than before," the newcomer said calmly. "I am the Chaos Emperor, and there shouldn't be anyone stronger than me in Hell right now. You can consider me the Lord of Hell."
"Since it's the Emperor, and he's personally involved this time, shouldn't he send out more people?" Seven Extinctions laughed.
"Of course. Once the value is confirmed to be sufficient, the super-giant teleportation array is ready. It can transport hundreds of millions of units of calamity power in one hour," the Chaos Emperor said calmly.
"Not bad, not bad at all, truly a grand gesture." Seven Extinctions clapped his hands and laughed. He reached out and lightly tapped Lin Hui's shoulder, instantly transmitting the standard intrusion method commonly used by the Fusion Faction.
Lin Hui instantly understood what the Chaos Emperor meant.
In the eyes of high-level Fusion Faction, the essence of plunder is not how many powerful individuals are sent to kill how many opponents, but how many units of calamity power are released to devour and pollute the pure resources of the other world.
The reason why many calamities send out large numbers of low-level monsters is because of this.
In fact, sending 100 million low-level monsters, which represent one unit of calamity power, is more cost-effective than sending a single high-level monster with 100 million units of calamity power.
Because the latter is extremely difficult to conceive, while the former can be produced in abundance.
Moreover, the latter's spread range and speed are far inferior to the former.
Even if the former is destroyed or killed, as long as they die in the other world, they can still achieve their goal of polluting the other side's resources.
As for the latter, no one would be willing to invest in it as a disposable item.
According to the standard, a realm like the Mist Man World can be polluted by investing 100 million units of calamity power. Once the environment is altered, even if the other side has top experts, they will have no choice but to flee, rendering the pollution ineffective.
On the other hand, in the Endless Divine Realm, the Chaos Emperor immediately offered hundreds of millions of units, which was indeed a grand gesture.
"Fellow Daoist, this way please." Seven Extinctions led the Chaos Emperor to another place to chat.
After the Chaos Emperor left, a familiar figure appeared behind Lin Hui.
Purgatory Duke, accompanied by his daughter Lanxi, slowly descended the steps of the Heaven-Turning Wheel and clasped his hands in greeting to Lin Hui.
"We'll finally be fighting side-by-side this time. Brother Lin is quite open-minded, participating in this matter in his true form."
