After evolving from an eagle-man into an angel, I annihilated the gods.

These two thousand years.

The number of angel legions stationed on the Abyss Blood Battlefield remained unchanged.

It neither increases nor decreases.

The demons and angels of the abyss have been waging a war that has lasted for tens of thousands of years, as if it were a daily occurrence.

The high-level combat forces on both sides didn't make many appearances, maintaining a tacit balance.

In fact, although Raphael was focused on his five-thousand-year plan, he did not change his strategy for the Abyss Blood Battlefield, but let it continue to maintain a balance.

He would select batches of young angels to participate in the Abyss Blood Battlefield at regular intervals, in order to train them.

In the myriad realms of the stars, if a world were to be invaded by the Abyss, he would also dispatch the Angelic Legion to provide support immediately.

This approach wasn't inherently problematic and largely aligned with Lucifer's objectives, yet it made Lucifer feel uncomfortable.

Raphael was undoubtedly a man who could tolerate imperfections and was more tactful in his dealings with others.

Although he was not as good as Michael in combat, he was more politically astute.

He knew he couldn't do anything to Lucifer, so he stopped wasting his energy on that and instead chose to develop the entire astral plane.

Opening the Astral Train and forging the Astral Magic Network are prerequisites and necessary steps for the development of the entire Astral Realm.

Indispensable.

He did a much better job than his predecessors.

Of course, most importantly, he no longer had to go and get beaten up by Lucifer.

To be honest, Raphael sometimes felt quite sorry for Michael's plight.

Lucifer was upset about Raphael's actions, but he hadn't punched anyone in a long time and his hands were itching to do so.

But she wouldn't stop it.

She couldn't possibly lead her demon foes to attack Paradise Mountain.

On the contrary, if these demons dared to do so, she could destroy them herself.

She would not stop Raphael from vigorously developing the Astral Plane, building the Astral Railway, and opening the Astral Train.

This is something that can strengthen the power of the entire astral plane, just like her original purpose.

On the Demon Throne.

Lucifer ate a water grape fed to him by a fallen angel's maid, and rested his chin on his hand as he pondered.

"It seems I won't be able to do anything during Raphael's 10,000-year reign."

"However, I haven't ridden this Astral Train that Raphael set up yet. I might as well take advantage of this time to have some fun in the Astral Plane."

"This vast astral plane, since it was conquered by our lord, I, Lord Lucifer, have hardly explored it."

"How can I be the king of the abyss and hell if I haven't seen the vastness of the star realm? I need to fill this gap."

She acted on her thoughts, rising directly from the Demon Throne, summoning her courtiers, and announcing her decision.

"Guards, I am going to the Astral Plane to conduct an immersive investigation of the various realms. I also want to see what's so special about that Astral Plane Train."

Under the throne.

The hundreds of thousands of high-ranking fallen angels who had quickly arrived at the scene exchanged glances, and one of the ten-winged fallen angels stepped forward and asked a question.

"My king, after you leave, who will take charge of the affairs of the Abyss?"

"Leave all matters of the Abyss to Volpis."

Lucifer replied without hesitation.

"Yes, we will inform Prince Volpis immediately."

The fallen angels nodded.

Volpis's status and position were sufficient to suppress the abyss and hell.

Seeing that they had agreed, Lucifer eagerly left the abyss with several maids, transformed into human form, and headed to the World Tree Railway hub to board the train bound for the myriad worlds.

The radiance of Paradise Mountain, which kept the demons at bay, felt like home to her.

World Tree Cyrivans knew of Lucifer's arrival, but chose to turn a blind eye.

He understood perfectly well that with Jiang You's affection for Lucifer, no matter what he said about rebelling against Heaven to become the King of the Abyss and Hell, as long as Heaven Mountain wasn't sunk, it wouldn't have any impact.

.........

a few days later.

Volpis, who had just returned from another world, sat on the Demon Throne with a look of grief and indignation.

"Lucifer, that despicable fellow."

"I knew it. At times like these, good things never come my way, but bad things always seem to happen to me."

"I want to go on such a wonderful trip as the Star Train!"

"Father God, please take care of your Morning Star."

There was something else he wanted to say but didn't.

"That damn guy, all he does is bully me."

He also wanted to take advantage of this time to have some fun. His succubus wife had complained to him about not coming home many times since he went to Lucifer.

His children and grandchildren, however, were all useless and unable to help him.

Indeed, as God's own son, he was the only one among all his children to marry and have children, and he had an astonishing number of descendants.

Although the more advanced a creature is, the more difficult it is to reproduce, the more times it conceives, the more offspring it will have.

His succubus wife deserves much credit for this.

.......

The year is 115000 in the Angel Empire calendar.

Lucifer, aboard the Astral Train, will eventually return to where she started, the Astral Train Hub World of the World Tree.

Three thousand years.

She traveled by train to various places, experiencing different customs, cuisines, and toys, which was a wonderful experience.

At this time.

She stood outside the World Tree Station, the enormous Astral Train terminal in the Nexus world.

Looking at the comings and goings of people, the billions of races as numerous as mountains and seas.

Among them were hurried human mages, ruddy-faced dwarf blacksmiths, handsome elven rangers, towering giant nobles, neatly dressed lizardman monks, and even adult dragons carrying enormous briefcases, and a race of giant snakes in suits and ties, and so on.

This was a scene of unparalleled grandeur, which stirred Lucifer's heart.

"This is the way my Heavenly Mountain can subdue all directions of time and space, yet influence billions of worlds and benefit countless living beings."

"Raphael, you're amazing."

"If our lord were to awaken, he would surely praise your achievements."

She praised softly, then cast her gaze toward hell and the abyss beyond time and space.

"I've been out for so long, it's time for me to go back."

"However, it wouldn't be good to go back empty-handed."

"Perhaps I should let Raphael put a train on my abyss and hell as well."

"The Abyss might not work, but the Devil's Hell, as a neutral and orderly place, should be able to."

then.

Just as Raphael looked on with astonishment.

He saw Lucifer again in the Archangel's Courtyard, the second level of his Heavenly Mountain.
