Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1775 - 997: Capturing the Star Lord, the Power Struggle Ends!

"Bury the Demon Star Lord alongside the Emperor’s Son!"
"That explains his rush to push for harmony between species? He’s clearly been working as a puppet for the Black Sun Evil Army from the start!"
....
A wave of raging sentiment flooded across the whole nebula region.
Luckily, the Trace Crystal later revealed the Emperor’s Son receiving treatment from the Heavenly Ghost, restoring a bit of clarity to the masses,
and the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor finally exhaled in relief.
Yet, against all anticipation, the Demon Star Lord chose that exact instant to unleash his power.
World-burning Sky Splitting Technique!
Suddenly, a thick veil of Dimensional Truth spread out, as the immensely potent Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Technique broke free from the Destiny Heaven Seal’s restraint, wielded by the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor.
The height of the Heavenly Boundary, the root of all Taboo!
That’s the savage and awe-inspiring essence of the Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Technique.
Indeed, countless taboo beings, during their initial Eras at the Fate Altar, rely on the Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Technique.
For Forbidden Secret Techniques prove far tougher to forge than Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Techniques, built purely from Dimensional Truth as the deadliest assault,
Legends tell of the conflict that wrecked the Star Core, where scores of Forbidden Techniques collided, and the slaughter of Forbidden Giants caused the Star Core to crumble.
Thus, despite the vast difference in strength between the Demon Star Lord and the Ancestor, and despite the Destiny Heaven Seal’s hold, he blasted the Ancestor away before desperately ripping open space-time to flee.
The Demon Star Lord realized that lingering there guaranteed his doom!
Instead of facing eternal disgrace, he opted to bolt away immediately.
"Hmph! You won’t get away so simply!"
The Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor bellowed, but right as he prepared to give chase, the Trace Crystal displayed the Emperor’s Son struggling during his revival, and the scene cut off sharply.
This left the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor’s face twisted in turmoil,
Leading him to abandon hunting the Demon Star Lord and head straight for the spot where the Emperor’s Son underwent healing!
This outcome was exactly as Su Lin had planned.
Su Lin had no plan for the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor to hunt down and eliminate the Demon Star Lord,
After plotting for such an extended period, why would Su Lin settle for just aiding the Emperor’s Son in grabbing control?
Besides, if the goal was purely power-grabbing, the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly’s involvement would’ve been unnecessary.
Su Lin had meticulously arranged everything to drive the Demon Star Lord into betraying the Ten Thousand Demons System.
"A half-step taboo Demon Star Lord—you represent my biggest prize in this plot!"
At this point, Su Lin, who had stealthily reached the nebula layer’s edge, detected the Ten Thousand Demons Ancestor’s exit, and his wolfish gaze unleashed a fearsome Divine Light, fixed intently on the path the Demon Star Lord had taken to escape.
Boom!
Next, his matchless Divine Speed sliced across the Space-Time River, mounting it swiftly, spanning countless billions of miles almost instantly.
....
Right now, after bursting from the Ten Thousand Demons Star, the Star Lord obviously recognized the most barren and undefended area in the Ten Thousand Demons System.
Thus, after dashing wildly for hundreds of billions of miles, he entered a vast, empty stretch of stars.
The Demon Star Lord didn’t pause for a second, tearing space-time more than a hundred times, nearly draining his limited Dimensional Truth reserves, until he got there.
In truth, a being freshly entering half-step taboo can merely displace a few billion miles at a time via space-time rifts.
At last, whirling about in alarm and detecting no sign of the Ancestor following through the space-time tear, he released a deep breath of ease.
Still, once the crisis passed, a spark of shadowy rage ignited in his fiery, eye-like flames!
"Who’s setting me up? The Emperor’s Son? This cruel and brutal plot doesn’t match his style, but if not him, then who else? Those two from the Heavenly Destiny Clan?"
The Demon Star Lord, seasoned from years on the battlefronts, wasn’t some idiot.
Regaining his cool, he rapidly began connecting the dots of the day’s bizarre occurrences.
Yet, after mulling it over briefly, he dismissed it with a shake of his head, unable to grasp the truth.
For one thing, what role did the Heizi Tribe play?
The link between the Heavenly Destiny Clan and the Heizi Tribe, two supreme Star Nebula Great Clans, isn’t easily figured out quickly.
"No more overthinking—I need to flee the Ten Thousand Demons System fast. Beyond it, I’ve got my Personal Army and leftover supplies. Even if they don’t let me rise again, they’ll keep me going for now."
The Demon Star Lord mused inwardly.
The moment he steadied his breathing a touch, ready to tear space-time anew,
a silhouette, wrapped in full starlight and donning Starlight Battle Armor, materialized from nothing in the void before him.
No one knew for how long this silhouette had lingered silently there, observing his every move.
"Who are you?"
He cried out in alarm again.
It wasn’t due to the Demon Star Lord’s lack of poise, but the day’s barrage of surprises had surpassed his comprehension.
The entity ahead, cloaked in starlight, radiated a presence even mightier than the Ancestor’s.
Despite the stellar glow concealing it, one could still feel the supreme imperial pressure, reminiscent of the Demon Emperor himself.
"The mastermind! Didn’t you just wonder about me?"
Su Lin sent forth a Spiritual Will while subtly moving closer, shattering illusions with each step until he was within ten thousand miles of the Demon Star Lord.
In their scale, this distance let them detect the slightest details—like fur on each other’s forms, every inhalation, and the tiniest Energy ripples.
Even without invoking Dharma Phase Heaven and Earth, their bodies towered at tens of thousands or millions of meters high!
