Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1888 - 916: Emergence of the Transcendent Assembly (Part 2)
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
This represents a carefully orchestrated scheme of assassination.
The Sky-splitting God King and Eternal Ancestor shared a glance, detecting in one another's eyes an unmatched seriousness and resolve. Their minds whirled at high speed, quickly comprehending the Abyss Demon Race's more profound and chilling conspiracy.
The prior blood-red millennium within the Shattered Starry Sea, along with the wild growth of the Shi Clan Civilization and Abyssal Devil Civilization, served only as the initial stage of their dimensional elevation scheme.
Eliminating the Twelfth Rank Primordial Mother Queen from the Insect Race and seizing the domains of almost fifty River System Communities controlled by the Starry Sea Insect Race marked just the next phase of the strategy.
This current phase stands as the true annihilation tactic, pushed to the heights of insanity.
"They... intend to convert this whole Heavenly Ape Star Realm, together with its trillions of inhabitants, into fuel for the Abyssal Dimension Upgrade!" The Sky-splitting God King's words boomed like clashing celestial bodies, laced with unmatched fury and chill.
The Eternal Divine Light encircling the Eternal Ancestor trembled fiercely, mirroring the storm raging inside him:
"Employing Chaos Wonders to lock down the Star Realm and trap us within, then launching a devastating assault to butcher and consume... What brutal tactics, what vast ambitions!"
They perceived it plainly: first, the Chaos Demon Ape Clan got wiped out, removing any supreme power to hold sway in the Heavenly Ape Star Realm. Combined with the rise of the Sea of High Dimensions from the Heaven-Fighting Ruins, the entities now assembled in this Heavenly Ape Star Realm accounted for close to thirty percent of the top-tier strengths in the present era of the All Heavens Star Sea.
The legendary forces from many peak Divine Land Clans, the supreme experts of the All Heavens Star Sea, and even beings like themselves... Should the Abyss Demon Race truly capture them, harnessing their bodies, Divine Souls, and the Civilization Fortune they bear as kindling, it would vastly boost the Abyssal Dimension Upgrade effort, and even improve its chances of triumph.
But this isn't the scariest part.
What fills the two Transcenders with greater dread is that this Chaos Barrier layer does more than just seal and separate; its strange pulses actively warp, absorb, and pull in the laws, clearly designed to rip this entire Heavenly Ape Star Realm—this chunk of semi-high-dimensional Chaos Divine Land—free from the core Divine Land, yanking it straight into the Bottomless Abyss dimension.
If they pull it off, the vital boost from swallowing a shattered star realm piece of Chaos Divine Land would drive the Abyssal Dimension Upgrade far past merely ingesting trillions of lives, marking a core advancement and strengthening its base.
"We cannot allow them to pull this off!" The Sky-splitting God King bellowed, his enormous divine form bursting with golden divine radiance that rent the void, his gigantic fist wrapped in the ultimate rules of power, daringly hammering at the Chaos Barrier.
"Boom—!!!"
A profoundly heavy thud resounded, the Chaos Barrier quaked fiercely, sending out endless ripples, but it held firm; rather, it flung back the Sky-splitting God King's force, making his huge frame wobble a bit.
In the same instant, the Eternal Ancestor attacked too, summoning the River of Time to seek out this barrier's vulnerability along the timeline for corrosion and breakdown.
Over his head loomed the solid yet ethereal form of the Eternal Divine Furnace, the core strength of Chaos Wonders granting him boundless support.
Yet the temporal force crashed against the barrier like sludge vanishing into the ocean; the barrier appeared to stand outside every timeline, resistant to every approach.
"It's pointless, Sky-splitting, Eternal..." A raspy, disordered voice, as though billions of spirits murmured at once, rose from the core of the demonic Qi, coming from one of the six Abyss Demon Gods.
"This is the manifestation drawn from my Bottomless Abyss's Chaos Wonders [Superdimensional World], ignited by six Transcenders in unison. Even if not the true form, it's plenty to confine you, cut off inside from outside, and make you the foundation stone for the Abyssal Dimension Upgrade!"
Before the words ended, the remaining five Demon Gods sprang into action.
They stopped focusing strikes on one spot and spread out, their demonic auras expansive like the veil of doom, starting to envelop the other panicked Mythical Armies from diverse clans in the Heavenly Ape Star Realm and the All Heavens Star Sea contingents.
"No!!"
"Demon Clan! How dare you!!"
"Fight them to the death!"
Shouts of despair, angry cries, and the glow of a last-stand battle exploded across the Star Realm.
Everyone who could step into the Chaos Divine Land to vie for fortunes was an elite in the All Heavens Star Sea, including plenty of mighty figures at Tenth Rank, Eleventh Rank.
Still, against genuine Transcenders, particularly six Abyss Demon Gods who had schemed long ahead and wielded total superiority in strength, such defiance looked so feeble and futile.
Demon Claws rent the heavens, smashing a ironclad mythical fleet from some tech civilization and its onboard leaders, reducing them to raw energy and substance streams.
Demon Mouths gulped down an old Daoist school from a cultivation civilization, including the three Eleventh Rank Supreme Elders at its entrance, devouring them completely, scattering their Dao and ending their forms.
Demon Flames scorched the firmament, setting ablaze a vast continental sky vessel home to countless backward beings, billions of souls crumbling to cinders amid screams, their Life Origin ripped out by force, fused into the demonic Qi's depths, vaguely feeling the Bottomless Abyss's ravenous and delighted throb.
This turned into a lopsided slaughter, the Heavenly Ape Star Realm now a slaughter field and gore banquet for the Abyss Demon Race.
The Sky-splitting God King and Eternal Ancestor boiled with wrath, trying to aid but held fast by the vocal Demon God and the [Superdimensional World] projection's forces, every push to breach the barrier or block meeting fiercer pushback and opposition.
"We have to shatter this barrier, or... send word out!" The Eternal Ancestor's Divine Thought raced in haste.
The Sky-splitting God King's massive eyes scanned this domain plunging swiftly into infernal chaos, as if piercing boundless dimensions, gazing toward the Shattered Starry Sea torn apart by the Shi Clan (Heart Stealing Demon).
