Chapter 1755: Chapter 986: Arrival at the Ten Thousand Demon System
This violet celestial body is magnificent and vast, possessing a scale at least twenty or thirty times greater than the Haori Star System!
The Xi He coordinate lies to the north of Earth.
However, within the void of the starry sky, the cardinal directions of east, south, west, and north are constantly shifting, necessitating a specialized system for spatial positioning.
The Xi He and Wangshu directions represent two polar opposites.
This implies that the Ten Thousand Demon System and the Sky Wolf System, where Su Lin resides, are situated at the northern and southern extremes of one another.
At present, this brilliantly glowing purple star stands as the most massive and luminous entity in this sector of space, unrivaled by any other celestial body.
It is for this reason that despite the fall of the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons, the Ten Thousand Demons Star System manages to preserve its status as a formidable nebula great clan.
Nevertheless, near the nebula boundary surrounding the Ten Thousand Demons Star System, a massive confrontation involving at least two hundred trillion armored soldiers is taking place.
This force includes star sky mother ship groups, elite heavenly armies, and various other powerful star air divisions.
Such a mobilization indicates a fierce struggle for ultimate authority between the Demon Star Lord and the Emperor’s Son of Ten Thousand Demons.
Observing the gravity of the situation, Su Lin and the powerhouse from the Undead Holy Sect stood up to channel dimensional truth. They enveloped the space-time altar in this power, tearing through the fabric of space-time to bypass the blockade and enter the Ten Thousand Demons Star System directly.
They understood that the space-time altar alone would likely fail to penetrate a military standoff of over two hundred trillion combatants.
Even so, the act of Su Lin and the Undead Holy Sect expert utilizing dimensional truth to cross the void into the Ten Thousand Demons Star triggered a massive disturbance!
Beyond the suffocating pressure of the Will of Heaven and Earth and the presence of that half-step taboo level ancestor, the Ten Thousand Demon System deployed several colossal destiny dragons and a fateful artifact in the form of a demon blade to suppress Su Lin and the Undead Holy Sect leader.
Such is the defensive capability of a nebula great clan’s primary stronghold!
Even if two half-step taboo experts joined forces to invade, they would typically be unable to cause any significant upheaval.
Under such intense suppression, even a true taboo existence would find it difficult to gain an advantage here!
However, the arrival was soon marked by Su Lin, the Undead Holy Sect powerhouse, and their accompanying army activating a terrifying extreme heaven realm battle formation combined with half-step taboo dimensional truth. They forcibly endured the initial wave of suppression before projecting a massive spiritual will across the area.
“Where is the Demon Emperor’s Son? We have arrived under the decree of the Heavenly Destiny Clan. If our help is unwanted, we shall depart at once!”
“Hmph! If this is how you treat your guests, then your efforts and expenses to invite us were entirely wasted!”
Through a mere surge of spiritual will, both Su Lin and the Undead Holy Sect expert displayed the overwhelming power of veteran half-step taboo figures!
The expert from the Undead Holy Sect, in particular, possessed a dimensional truth that was a level higher, drawing infinitely close to the late-stage of the half-step taboo realm.
This mastery of dimensional truth even exceeded that of the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor who stood guard.
As these two powerful spiritual wills resonated through the air,
inside the great hall, a discussion was underway with various high-ranking ministers regarding the military standoff and the voting resolution for the ancestral exotic beast proposed by the Demon Star Lord.
A humanoid minotaur exotic beast—a tenfold late-stage entity covered in violet scales with a powerful frame and sharp horns—suddenly glanced toward the sky.
By the time the ministers sensed the massive external disturbance and the echoing spiritual wills, the humanoid minotaur had already vanished.
In an instant, it reappeared at the zenith of the Ten Thousand Demons Star. With a single thought, it deactivated the suppression of the destiny dragons and the artifact; even the Will of Heaven and Earth began to recede upon sensing its command.
“My apologies. I have been consumed by the task of managing the political and military coup led by the Demon Star Lord over the years, and I failed to notice your arrival immediately. I am the Emperor’s Son of Ten Thousand Demons. The Demon Star Lord has sealed the surrounding sectors, and I feared you would no longer come to our aid!”
Once the suppression was lifted, the Demon Emperor’s Son descended before Su Lin and the Undead Holy Sect powerhouse with a respectful and humble demeanor.
No further proof of identity was required!
The sheer aura and dimensional truth radiating from Su Lin and his companion, which were even more potent than the old ancestor’s, confirmed their status.
Unless they were there to support the Demon Emperor’s Son, no two half-step taboo entities would ever risk entering such a fortified territory.
“Hmph! The Heavenly Destiny Clan always honors its word!”
The expert from the Undead Holy Sect remained cold and displeased.
Yet, this sternness only caused the Demon Emperor’s Son to act with even greater deference.
Ultimately, the presence of two half-step taboos stronger than the clan's own ancestor, backed by the prestige of the Heavenly Destiny Clan, ensured that the volatile situation could be stabilized for the time being.
Furthermore, the commitment of the Heavenly Destiny Clan to provide two half-step taboos had been fulfilled.
The Demon Emperor’s Son understood that if he could use his immense wealth to satisfy these two experts, he could eventually seize the right moment to eliminate the Demon Star Lord.
Once that was achieved, all political and military strife would vanish!
This was the Ten Thousand Demon System!
He was the Demon Emperor’s Son!
No one else possessed the right to inherit this system, nor could anyone else claim his father’s empire or seek his revenge!
…..
In the Land of Adventure, hunting under the eternal day is no simple task. Since the onset of the Ice Age, the emergence of numerous variant species has made the brutal Arctic environment even more lethal. A single lapse in focus could result in death by a predator’s fangs for the sake of a few pounds of meat.
This is why many members of the Bear Clan pledged themselves to the White Wolf, seeking a steady supply of meat and access to high-quality variant species flesh.
Su Lin did not neglect the Bear Clan that fought by his side; he let out a thunderous howl, ordering the distribution of more meat to them.
The Bear Clan huddling together had grown accustomed to the White Wolf Pack’s signals and understood the meaning of the howl. They responded with joyous "hohoho" roars from their caves, the successful hunt further cementing their devotion to the White Wolf.
Su Lin recognized that this conflict had deepened the loyalty of his subjects. He rewarded his warriors generously to entice more animals to join him, knowing his tribe would grow into an invincible Arctic Overlord of the ice fields.
After compensating the Wolf and Bear Clans, Su Lin turned his attention to Sander and Tiffany. He had anticipated that these two humans would join the pack to fight for their lives.
Intending to groom them as his human proxies, Su Lin granted them a generous portion of two hundred pounds of meat—plenty to sustain them for some time.
Sander and Tiffany were stunned by the gesture, their hearts swelling with appreciation for the White Wolf. They never imagined that participating in the battle would yield such a bounty of food.
Sander reflected on his life in the Human Fortress, where he lived as a bottom-tier citizen, constantly belittled. In a human society where resources were scarce, rare variant species meat was reserved for the elite New Humans. Someone as lowly as him never got a taste. Comparing his current life to the past, he felt his choice was justified.
As for Tiffany, she had been nothing more than a tool for the high-ranking officials in the Human Fortress. Unlike her classmates who were victims of circumstance, she was a pawn discarded by the leadership. Having been abandoned in the Arctic for so long without rescue, her heart had turned cold toward her own kind. Seeing that she could earn fresh variant species meat through her own contributions, both she and Sander reached a silent, firm resolution.
