Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1705 - 960: Lord of the Radiant Sun vs. Wolf Lord!
Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Upon plunging into the Star Sky Mist Sea, the Wolf Lord descended into a state of total frenzy. He unleashed every Extreme Heaven Realm killing technique he had ever encountered, desperately trying to fuse them into a singular power.
However, despite eventually tearing the Star Sky Mist Sea asunder, he fell short of finalizing the eighth form of the Chaotic Starry Sky.
On a positive note, the foil papers within his Origin Space were nearly all occupied.
With over four hundred foil-level killing armaments, his arsenal now eclipsed the foundations of even a quasi-Star Nebula Great Clan.
Boom!
With the total destruction of the Star Sky Mist Sea, Earth underwent a definitive ascension. Although the lingering aura of extinction from the Starry Sky Will remained for a time, the planet began another massive cycle of expansion.
The scale of each planetary grade upgrade is staggering.
During this vast growth, Earth began to radiate a fierce heat. Its massive oceans and river systems glowed with fluorescence, appearing like a secondary Sea of Destiny or a Destiny Yangtze River draped across the globe.
Observed from the depths of space, Earth now resembles a colossal Life Star shimmering with light.
Yet, the starlight emanating from this Life Star is a deep, pure black.
It is a sight both mysterious and heavy with a sense of dread.
As Earth expanded, the entire Earth Star Group shared in this monumental fortune.
Many celestial bodies within the group saw their own grades elevated.
The Moon and the five newest satellites orbiting Earth have reached the peak of the second level. Given time, their resources will rival those of the eight satellites belonging to the Radiant Sun Star.
Furthermore, among the surrounding debris and shattered asteroids, a dozen have evolved once more into first-level life planets.
Mercury, Venus, and even the recently fallen Mars are now trending toward becoming peak second-level life planets.
Rumble!
The thunderous echoes of this great expansion vibrated through the Stellar Dome.
The black Starlight Sky Pillar rising from Earth grew more brilliant, a silent testament to the world that Earth’s ascension was a success.
This victory sent morale soaring for the forces at Mercury, the Hundred Battles Army of the Lonely Wolf Emperor, and various independent experts.
Conversely, members of the Radiant Sun Tribe who harbored deep grudges against the Wolf Pack Civilization—including the survivors of the Haori Vanguard Army at Mercury—grew more frantic and desperate.
They understood that by successfully ascending to a star, Earth had gained the legitimate right to challenge the Radiant Sun Tribe.
This moment represented perhaps the final opportunity to wipe out the Wolf Pack Civilization and settle the scores of the first Super Star War!
Clad in full Star Stone Armor, the Lord of the Radiant Sun stood ready, the newly formed Fire God Army marshaled behind him.
These soldiers were veterans of the first Super Star War; some were survivors who had served Emperor Hao Ri, while others were the elite core of the Radiant Sun Tribe.
Their hatred burned just as fiercely as that of the Haori Vanguard Army.
It must be remembered that during the first Super Star War, even the Radiant Sun Star's home world was breached, leading to many protectors being corrupted, butchered, and transformed into restless spirits.
"Kill!"
Sensing that the threat of extinction had vanished from Earth’s sky, the Lord of the Radiant Sun cast aside hesitation. With a thunderous command, he led his legions toward Earth!
While the Serpent Emperor and his personal army could offer some resistance to the Lord of the Radiant Sun and the Fire God Army, it would be negligible.
Even a force of twenty billion would struggle to make an impact.
Since Earth was still in the midst of expansion, it could not yet harness its destiny or planetary power.
These personal armies were merely a massive gathering of twenty billion at the Ancestor Level!
If the Little Lone Wolf’s thirty-million-strong Hundred Battles Army could once slaughter twenty billion, the Lord of the Radiant Sun’s eight hundred million Heavenly Boundary elites would find it even easier!
In many ways, this eight-hundred-million-strong Heavenly Boundary force was more valuable than a multi-trillion Ancestor Level army!
The Heavenly Boundary warriors represented the true essence and the very Foundation of a power!
"Kill! First division of the Fire God Army, lock down Earth’s defensive perimeter! Second division, intercept the Earth military! The remaining six divisions will follow me to wipe out the Wolf Bandits!"
At this moment, the Lord of the Radiant Sun had the power to crush Earth under the boots of the Fire God Army.
The two hundred billion soldiers remaining on Earth, regardless of their advanced star energy weaponry, were of little consequence.
However, the Lord of the Radiant Sun knew that the final outcome rested not with these Earth species.
The ultimate turning point was the duel between himself and the Wolf Lord.
Whether these armies lived or died mattered little in the grand scheme.
Furthermore, he was a sovereign ruler, unlike the ruthless Wolf Pack Civilization!
Since the Wolf Lord had voluntarily lowered the triple defense, he saw no point in a meaningless slaughter just to spite his foe.
This was a final shred of dignity shared between two Emperors!
"Annihilate the Wolf Bandits!"
Six massive divisions of the Radiant Sun Tribe’s Heavenly Boundary elites formed the Hao Ri Wheel rotation battle formation, charging directly at Su Lin.
Each division of the Fire God Army numbered over a hundred million, and when synchronized in the Hao Ri Wheel formation, their collective power could challenge an elder half-step taboo being.
This was a conquest of the starry sky!
Individual heroics rarely overturned such tides.
Even a taboo existence could perish in the chaos of a Super Star War.
A formation of over a hundred million Heavenly Boundary soldiers was sufficient to hold the Wolf Lord at bay, and while it might not defeat him, it could certainly wound him while the Lord of the Radiant Sun engaged him in a stalemate.
"Wolf Lord, I didn't expect you to survive a forced planetary ascension. Now, it is our turn. I have witnessed your techniques and your power. If you truly intend to take my head and unite the system, then stop talking. Come! Show me your true strength!"
The Lord of the Radiant Sun descended upon Earth, his every stride shattering the air as he closed in on Su Lin.
With a single thought, his form shifted into that of a Battle Demon God.
"Howl!"
"Suppress!"
As the distance closed, Su Lin unleashed the terrifying power of his newly fused Sky Wolf Howling Sun talent.
In response, the Lord of the Radiant Sun triggered the Sound of Suppressing the World, a secret of the Angel Tribe!
This was the ultimate inherited technique of the Angel Tribe, known only to the Lord of the Radiant Sun, who had once been part of the Angel's main bloodline.
Boom!
A colossal shockwave of sound erupted between the two combatants.
Even though the Lord of the Radiant Sun's hidden power far exceeded anything the Mysterious White Cloud had shown, the Sound of Suppressing the World was still outmatched by Su Lin’s merged sonic talent!
Boom!
Su Lin was pushed back several thousand miles, but the Lord of the Radiant Sun was sent crashing back into his own army. His radiant form flickered, and droplets of golden essence blood began to leak from his body.
"Lord of the Radiant Sun, can you see it now? You were trapped by 'Nightmare' for millennia. To you, it might have been a blink, but it was a golden age that passed you by. In those thousands of years, countless geniuses have risen like fish in a river. You are no longer fit to rule this system. You are old; it is time to step down!"
Su Lin’s howl echoed across the planet. His wolf form glowed with an intimidating light as he stood upon the Cycle of Reincarnation Disk, the twelve-colored Star Refining Furnace hovering above him and the Blazing Flame Sword at his side.
Destroying the Star Sky Mist Sea had certainly drained his reserves.
Yet, he held advantages the Lord of the Radiant Sun could never dream of.
He possessed three Extreme Heaven Realm artifacts, and even his Star Chen Armor was a quasi-Extreme Heaven Realm piece. If the Lord of the Radiant Sun had no more tricks, the empire was as good as gone.
In this system, and the vast starry sky beyond, it is power, not virtue, that dictates the ruler!
With this cold spiritual intent radiating from him, Su Lin looked down at the Lord of the Radiant Sun, his attribute screen appearing before his eyes.
Species: Sixteen-Winged Holy Angel (Heavenly Boundary) Level: Level 200 Qi-Blood: 498756 Endurance: 298765 Strength: 329867 Defense: 316589 Speed: 358796 Talent: Finger Snap Divine Power (Heavenly Boundary), Body Transformation (Heavenly Boundary), Feathers of Ashes (Heavenly Boundary), Soul Spirit Undying (High Heaven Realm), Enslavement of the Heavenly God (High Heaven Realm), Radiant Sun Heaven Eye (High Heaven Realm), Unprecedented Cutting (High Heaven Realm), Light Eternal (Quasi-Extreme Heaven Realm), Divinity Manifest (Quasi-Extreme Heaven Realm) High Heaven Realm Secret Technique: One-Thought Demon God, Fallen Shadow Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Technique: Hao Ri Wheel
It was clear that the Lord of the Radiant Sun, having absorbed the source of a Level 5 Star, was slightly more powerful than 'Nightmare' in terms of raw stats.
But against the current Su Lin, that edge had vanished!
The Lord of the Radiant Sun realized that even after the Wolf Lord had been exhausted by his previous efforts, he still held the disadvantage after their first exchange.
He felt his kingly "force" trembling, burning with a mix of frustration and fury.
The mention of being imprisoned by 'Nightmare' for thousands of years cut him to the core.
'Nightmare' had been killed by this wolf who was less than ten thousand years old, yet he had been a prisoner to 'Nightmare' for ages. Did that mean he wasn't even qualified to challenge this junior for the throne?
"Hahaha..."
The Lord of the Radiant Sun laughed bitterly, his aura and energy erupting into a wild blaze. The light of the Saint Angel nearly blotted out the sky.
His One-Thought Demon God image shook violently, beginning to transform into the Angel Tribe's ultimate form of combined divinity and malice. "Junior, your words sting. I did indeed waste those golden years. Had I been present, I could have crushed you, the Jupiter Empress, and the Shadow Demon with a single hand. But if you think that's enough to make me yield, you are mistaken!"
The Lord of the Radiant Sun was now completely consumed by rage!
When a king is shamed, his enemies must pay with their lives!
The six remaining Fire God Armies were equally incensed, their eyes turning red with the desire to tear into the Wolf Lord.
However, without a specific opening, they couldn't even track the Wolf Lord's movements.
"Come, Lord of the Radiant Sun! Let us settle this in the starry sky! Bring your Fire God Army; I will defeat you all alone!"
Boom!
The Wolf Lord bolted from Earth’s atmosphere, heading into the void!
Because the Wolf Lord had left his home territory, the Lord of the Radiant Sun stopped worrying about potential traps.
After all, he had feared the Wolf Lord might try to fully integrate the planet's source!
"Fine! Die!"
The Lord of the Radiant Sun pursued him into the starry sky.
Before the Fire God Army could even close the gap, the two most powerful emperors of the Hao Ri Star System engaged in a lethal struggle.
Neither held anything back. They traded secret techniques rapidly, seeking a swift and decisive end to the conflict.
For there cannot be two suns in one heaven!
This system cannot sustain two true emperors!
Currently, the system effectively had three suns.
The light of Jupiter was destined to fade; even if it survived, it would never shine as it once did.
But under the rule of this monstrous Wolf Lord, the glory of Earth was becoming more radiant than ever.
The Lord of the Radiant Sun knew there was no turning back!
If he failed to kill the Wolf Lord here, the brilliance of the Hao Ri Tribe would dim and eventually vanish forever!
