Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1738 - 848: Pulling Chestnuts from the Fire and the Eye of Causality

The gray-cloaked figure and the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine were forced to meet the abrupt assault head-on as brilliant light erupted simultaneously from the quantum barrier and the Bronze Hall Gate.

Amidst the turmoil, the replicated Absorbing Beam from the Void Warehouse finally shattered the constraints of time. It swept out, capturing both the polyhedral crystal and the Bronze Hall Gate in its grasp.

"Collect!"

Song Chi’s spirit shuddered violently. Utilizing the colorful upper-rank Space Law, he forcibly severed the temporal anchor maintained by the gray-cloaked man. Without further complication, the polyhedral crystal vanished from its platform, pulled into the dimensional sub-space of the replica Void Warehouse.

In contrast, the gray-cloaked figure’s grip on his Bronze Hall Gate strange object remained terrifyingly firm despite the interference of another mythical unit. The Lv110 enhanced spatial suction was clearly insufficient to immediately break the connection between the two.

Just how lightning-fast is the reaction speed of a mythical creature?

The gray-cloaked figure responded in an instant.

"Court death!"

Following a piercing, non-human shriek, the entire temporal fracture began to reverse. Within the surrounding fragments of shattered space-time mirrors, countless "past" versions of the gray-cloaked figure manifested at once!

This was not what shocked Song Chi the most. The critical issue was that every one of these suddenly appearing figures turned their gaze toward the empty void where the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship lay hidden.

Simultaneously, the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine of the Creation Mechanical Civilization detected the anomaly. The antimatter core within its chest overloaded instantly as a synthesized mechanical voice rang out coldly:

"Observer detected, activating causal weapon."

Armor plating on its back slid open layer by layer, exposing twelve missiles marked with blood-red countdown icons.

At this life-or-death moment, Song Chi regained his focus. The prow of the Image Warship ignited with a radiant, multicolored glow.

The already primed replica Judgment Light, Blood Erosion Destruction Cannon, and High-dimensional Particle Collapse Cannon fired almost at the same time.

These three ship cannons represented the most formidable main batteries of the Image Warship, and all three were locked onto the gray-cloaked figure. To be precise, they targeted the figure's right arm, which was clamped tightly around the Bronze Hall Gate.

Furthermore, two other components were triggered. The replica Time Chess Board manifested above the Image Warship, projecting a seven-colored board that radiated a temporal power equal to—and for a moment, even surpassing—the Bronze Hall Gate.

Song Chi seized this opening, precisely maneuvering the Image Warship to emit a second wave of suction.

This time, without the fierce resistance from the Bronze Hall Gate itself, the absorption was bound to succeed as long as the gray-cloaked figure failed to react. The three main cannons had been fired specifically to ensure he couldn't.

Sensing the three beams of annihilation racing toward him, the gray-cloaked figure instinctively hesitated in his attempt to pull back the Bronze Hall Gate.

The final component activated on the Image Warship was the replica Mythical Pulse Energy Shield. Its "Mythical Pulse Wave" struck the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine directly, violently interrupting the energy flow of the charging causal weapon.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Accompanied by a subtle ripple in space, the Bronze Hall Gate vanished from the gray-cloaked figure’s hand into thin air.

"Go!"

With both objectives secured, Song Chi immediately ordered the Image Warship to retreat. The "Beyond the Three Realms, Not within the Five Elements" trait of the replica Three Realms Five Elements Certificate was triggered, causing the ship’s hull, hidden deep in the void, to turn intangible.

At the same time, the Space Jump Device was engaged. Aided by the Zen Seal·Time Speed trait of the recently upgraded colorful lower-rank Purusa Zen Seal, the jump sequence was completed in a heartbeat.

Just as Song Chi waited for the Image Warship to warp away, his face suddenly went stiff.

The replica Space Jump Device had functioned, yet the Image Warship remained rooted in place.

"A spatial blockade?"

Pushing down the realization, he quickly commanded the ship to use the Void Cloud Boat Model component. Though not a jump drive, the Void Cloud Boat Model was a three-colored flash escape component with a higher quality than the Space Jump Device.

"If a five-colored blockade can't stop it, then this must be... no... it’s likely seven-colored..."

Seeing that even the Void Cloud Boat Model failed to change their fate, Song Chi had his answer. There was no time for further contemplation.

Whoosh!

A pillar of pitch-black light tore through the void. It left no room for resistance, nearly skewering the entire Image Warship. The semi-intangible hull, which had been glowing faintly just a second ago, suddenly went dark.

The moment the black light pierced the Image Warship, Song Chi’s spiritual connection was severed.

Inside the control room of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, he snapped his eyes open, cold sweat dripping from his brow.

"The causal strike of the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine... as expected, it couldn't be dodged."

Despite this, his expression relaxed, showing no sign of real panic. Although the Image Warship had been hit, he was protected by the supreme status of the chaos wonder Zhu Tian Ruins Market. Combined with the Heavenly Destiny Compass on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, the colorful extreme-rank trait "Heavenly Destiny·Confusing Heavenly Mechanism" was far more than just a name.

Therefore, even if the enemy attempted to trace the causality back to him, he was certain the main body of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong would remain untouched.
