Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1881: 1051: Ten Thousand Tribulations Light Prison, Purple Brilliance Battle Body!

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Sunshine Quasi Emperor forged alliances with the Hundred Stars Alliance and a vassal lord negotiated with the starving Void Abyss Mayfly Clan, promising resources and shared spoils to unite against the Red Sun Empire and Celestial Wolf Civilization. Months later, the Three-Eyed Alliance was proclaimed, denouncing the two powers as betrayers and demons while establishing Sunshine Trading City to lure supporters across the Wangshu Zone. Turbulence erupted as fearful forces aligned with the alliance, reinforcements clashed in skirmishes, and minor rebellions stirred in unconsolidated Celestial Wolf territories. Amid these tensions, Su Lin rewarded his Wolf Clan and then the eager Bear Clan with abundant flesh for their battle contributions.

In the Wangshu Zone, divisions had already become stark and evident.

The only powers steering clear of picking sides were the Black Sun Stellar System close to the nebula layer, the Mechanical Court positioned near the Zhenmang direction, and the Black Gold Demon Clan—a Demon Clan offshoot—located by the Shoushou direction.

Truth be told, these three mighty Nebula Clans had long harbored thoughts of stepping back from the power struggles.

After all, the vast stretches of starry sky they claimed were mostly desolate and resource-poor.

Typically, such forsaken areas saw little interference from Exotic Beast Forces.

No need to delve deep into the Black Sun Stellar System; its borders at the nebula layer were harsh and freezing, with resources in short supply!

Near the Zhenmang direction, the Wangshu Zone's starry expanse spanning more than three hundred light-years was riddled with vast chaotic belts. The devastating clash that splintered the Star Core had wrecked it badly, converting swathes of nebula starry skies into barren chaos where no resources could emerge.

Still, the Mechanical Court, grounded in mechanical and Star Energy tech as its core path, had thrived despite slim pickings. Its mechanical innovations and Star Energy advancements stood as the pinnacle within the Blazing Nebula.

In fact, the Mechanical Court started out as the Blazing Flame Clan's own in-house armed research outfit!

Luckily, following the Blazing Flame Clan's downfall, it wisely ditched all weapons and shifted to neutrality, offering help in forging Star Energy Weapons and Mechanical Weapons in exchange for supplies, defenses, and rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.

Take the legendary Super Star Energy Armor, said to match a Peak Venerable in might!

Such mechas could only come from the Mechanical Court's hands!

This savvy move kept the Mechanical Court alive, though its own forces stayed small. Protection came instead from troops of the Sky-Cunning Beast, Heavenly Destiny Clan, and Heizi Tribe!

But thanks to its tech prowess, horde of inventive minds, and whispers of a hidden Mechanical Dimension God in the works, it held firm as one of the Star Nebula Great Clans.

That said, for all the sizable starry territory it held, aggression was never its style!

Next up, the Black Gold Demon Clan!

This lot was seen as a fading offshoot of a grand lineage, barely clinging to ties with the main family anymore.

They were the source of the Black Gold Demon Ape!

As a result, the Black Gold Demon Clan scraped by in a marginal starry patch that hardly qualified as Wangshu Zone's heart, even if it stretched beyond two hundred light-years.

Yet truthfully, this starry domain brimmed with scant resources.

Even outside Star Core zones, a clear hierarchy of resource worth existed!

Wangshu Zone's prime resources clustered in the Bright Day System, Red Sun Empire, and the Sky Wolf System's held domains, leaving scraps for everywhere else.

Now, with Wangshu Zone's factions all leaning into alliances amid the rising tensions, these three stayed eerily quiet, steering clear of noise or entanglement in the gathering tempest.

……

While the entire Wangshu Zone churned with unrest and hidden surges,

Atop the Civilization Destiny Stone's peak in the Wolf Pack Civilization, Su Lin had fully integrated the three soul bones and Dimension Heart from the Star Sand Master, all converting into surging endless power.

The former Sinful Sea soul bone even crumbled outright, acting as the binding catalyst for Light Protection and Wanmo Soil!

After burning through a solid two thousand years, Su Lin pulled it off at last!

A fresh Extreme Heaven Realm Defense Secret Technique!

Ten Thousand Tribulations Light Prison!

Born from fusing the Three Great Secret Techniques, this new Extreme Heaven Realm powerhouse brimmed with might.

When activated, it summons ten thousand tribulations alongside the Light Prison!

This setup burdens the user with tribulations while trapping them in the Light Prison!

That said, any foe launching strikes must first shatter those ten thousand tribulations and the Light Prison,

turning what might seem like self-imposed chains into a masterful Defense Secret Technique— one that, wielded with cunning, lets the weaker defy the stronger!

On top of that, Su Lin wielded the Sumeru Star Armor and his ironclad physical might!

These days, barring a taboo being actually treading the Fate Altar, Su Lin stood ready to clash head-on!

Plus, Su Lin had nabbed the Blazing Nine Revolutions Heaven Decision too.

He poured ages into probing this secret technique; it was a fierce booster that layered atop other Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Techniques by burning Qi-Blood!

The Blazing Nine Revolutions could amp battle power through nine shifts, hitting peak burst mode, though the drain skyrocketed with each step.

He tried blending this with Heaven and Earth Grieve Together, only to hit a wall!

Both being outrageously defiant against the heavens, smashing them together demanded some destined breakthrough!

As for the Star Sand Master's ultimate heaven-defying innate Extreme Heaven Realm, Su Lin couldn't grasp it!

Even soul bones aside, inheriting a past master's secret technique rarely clicked flawless.

Thus, Su Lin shrugged off the setback!

With his Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Techniques already plentiful—and some edging toward Forbidden Secret Technique levels, like Future Body, My Transforming Taboo, Chaotic Starry Sky, Ten Thousand Tribulations Light Prison, and more— he was set.

By taking in the Dimension Heart from the Star Sand Master's core, Su Lin sensed his grasp of dimensional truths surging fast, nearing Late Stage!

“Aowoo!”

At the same instant, a earth-shaking wolf howl thundered from the Destiny Stone's summit like never before, as Su Lin unleashed the full hoard of Evolution Essence built up across two thousand years!

His starting Level 173 climbed anew, easing to a stop only at Level 175!
