Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1891 - 917: Transcendental Chaos War Beyond the Chaos_2
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
Boom! Crack!!
Countless bizarre explosive sounds merged into one, as laws shattered and rules wailed in agony, while an energy tempest ravaged everything in sight, the radiant divine glow clashing with the profound demonic qi in mutual destruction, only for rebirth to emerge from the ruins.
Such a volatile area in the chaotic void sea simply couldn't endure the fallout from clashes between numerous transcendent entities and chaos wonders.
Layer upon layer, the void cracked like brittle glass, crumbling back to the most basic emptiness, with huge expanses of chaos qi vaporized outright, exposing the vibrant but highly perilous underlying chaos of rules.
Right in the heart of the conflict, an ever-widening "zone of extinction" appeared to take shape, where any being below transcendent status—even a rank eleven myth—would get broken down into fundamental particles the instant it touched the extinction waves, its divine soul utterly erased.
This clash embodied a genuine doomsday war, though its scale didn't rival the immense star realm, the depth of its devastation cut straight to the core rules governing the entire starry sea of all heavens.
With a single axe swing, the Sky-splitting God King sliced apart a wave from the chaotic bell, then swung back to sever a dimensional lock chain ambushing the Eternal Ancestor, his enormous divine form marked by several bone-deep gashes from the Dimension Anchor.
The Eternal Ancestor's Eternal Divine Light had grown somewhat fainter, as sustaining the Eternal Divine Furnace against ongoing disruptions from the Chaos Bell and the Superdimensional World drained an enormous amount of power.
Much of the Father of the Sand Sea's Quicksand Body got scorched by demon flames, the Burning Flame Ancestor's Fiery Sun Light weakened considerably amid the Superdimensional World's distortions, while the Ice Demon Ancestor's Ice Domain faced suppression from multiple abyssal chaos wonders.
Things weren't any rosier for the Abyss Demon Race, as one Demon God got hit by the lingering glow of the Heaven-opening Axe, its demonic form almost cleaved apart, and another found itself encased in ice by the Frozen Heart, movements sluggish, on the brink of being sealed by the Father of the Sand Sea's divine mark.
The fight dragged into an intense deadlock, both factions clenching their jaws, waiting for the opponent to slip first, or maybe for one side to run out of reserves.
Right when the struggle deep in the chaotic void sea hit its boiling point, with transcenders on both sides badly hurt and holding on through chaos wonders and sheer unyielding spirit, an abrupt shift unfolded.
"Buzz——!!"
A presence far grander and more primordial than the Superdimensional World abruptly swept over this chaotic warzone.
There, within the swirling chaos gas at the battlefield's periphery, a massive ancient city phantom slowly materialized.
Constructed wholly from some unfathomable chaotic divine stone, the city's walls bore etchings of countless eras' ups and downs, radiating an invincible aura that defied all laws and achieved eternal, unbound transcendence.
Should Song Chi be here, he'd definitely sense something familiar.
This was none other than that enigmatic City of Transcendence, located beyond the starry sea of all heavens and the Chaos Divine Land.
Even more alarming to the Sky-splitting God King and his allies, two figures with presences rivaling any transcender on site emerged from the City of Transcendence's entrance.
Their shapes wavered like mirages caught between real and unreal, their energies perfectly fused with the City of Transcendence, revealing them as two rank twelve transcenders tied to the City of Transcendence.
Without a moment's pause upon appearing, these two transcenders fixed their sights on the Ice Demon Ancestor, who was pouring full force into the Frozen Heart to bind the Abyss Demon Race with biting frost.
Clearly, the Abyss Demon Race had secretly allied with the City of Transcendence long ago, saving this as their hidden ace.
"Subdue!"
"Seal!"
Together, the beings from the City of Transcendence struck, channeling the city's core essence into a vast power that formed unseen chains of rules, slamming them onto the Ice Demon Ancestor in a flash; the other presented an old stone mirror, its reflected light scrambling even the chill from the Frozen Heart, flipping it backward.
"Not good!" For the first time, shock and fury twisted the Ice Demon Ancestor's face, sculpted from everlasting mysterious ice.
After already wearing itself out fending off several abyssal chaos wonders at once, now hammered by a sudden blitz from two peers empowered by the chaos wonder City of Transcendence, squeezed from all sides, it plunged straight into crisis.
"Crack..."
Fissures started spiderwebbing across the eternal mysterious ice sheathing the Ice Demon Ancestor's form, the Frozen Heart's rhythm growing frantic and disordered.
Even as it desperately ignited its own essence and cranked the [Frozen Heart]'s power to its limit, unleashing an ice-blue frost surge to encase all in frozen stasis, the onslaught from three transcendents (one Demon God plus two from the City of Transcendence), bolstered by the [Dimension Anchor] and the full [City of Transcendence], shattered its barriers like a tiny vessel tossed in raging waves.
"Hahaha... Ice Demon, I'll claim your frozen essence!" Spotting the chance, the Abyss Demon God gripping the [Dimension Anchor] cackled viciously and lunged hard, the anchor's point gleaming with spectral radiance that could rend dimensions, aimed right at the Ice Demon Ancestor's vital center.
Facing total erosion of its vitality and divine soul amid the onslaught, a spark of wild desperation and fierce determination ignited in the Ice Demon Ancestor's gemstone eyes.
"Want to seize my origin? Then let's perish together!"
A soul-shaking shriek tore from it as the Ice Demon Ancestor abandoned all defense or flight, pouring every last bit of power, its undying soul, and transcendent rank fully into the [Frozen Heart] at its chest.
"Frozen Soul Domain—Open!"
The [Frozen Heart] burst forth with a chaotic brilliance never seen before, unleashing a chilling force beyond utmost cold, honed to strike at divine souls and life essences, detonating in an instant.
The nearest transcendents, encompassing the Abyss Demon God with the [Dimension Anchor] and the pair from the City of Transcendence, hadn't anticipated the Ice Demon Ancestor's such resolve, nor that the [Frozen Heart] hid this do-or-die forbidden technique.
At that instant, their souls, minds, and even commands over chaos artifacts got locked in ice, however short the freeze, it created a deadly opening in transcendent combat.
During that split-second stasis, the fractured mysterious ice shell of the Ice Demon Ancestor detonated.
Boom!!!
The blast from a rank twelve transcender's self-destruction outstrips what any mythic being could fathom.
Far from mere energy outburst, it involved the total obliteration and explosive sacrifice of its lifetime's rules, amassed origin, and held transcendence in one cataclysmic surge.
From the spot where the Ice Demon Ancestor once stood, an unimaginable storm of ruinous energy surged outward, reducing all it touched to utter void.
Hit hardest were the three front-line transcendents, their souls briefly iced over.
The Abyss Demon God nearest the epicenter, though its [Dimension Anchor] could fix dimensions and cross voids, lacked focus on shielding against chaos assaults.
Without awareness to activate it, its demonic frame lay fully vulnerable at the storm's heart.
"No—!!!" Nearby Demon Gods bellowed in fury, yet rescue came too late.
The ruinous tempest roared on.
When the blast's glow finally faded, a force that could erase stars and warp rules, uncovering what lay within, all witnesses held their breath.
The Abyss Demon God bearing the [Dimension Anchor], its grand demonic form gone without trace, only a crumbling void of annihilation marking its place. What's more, the [Dimension Anchor] chaos artifact drifted unclaimed in the emptiness, its glow faded, emitting mournful wails, fine cracks marring its surface.
Any sign of its life had scattered into oblivion.
A rank twelve transcendent Demon God had perished!
The City of Transcendence's pair got off somewhat better.
Just in time, the [City of Transcendence]'s silhouette flared a dense barrier of chaos light, shielding them within. Still, the barrier shattered under the self-blast's fury, their auras plunging as they endured grievous wounds beyond measure, sidelining them from the fight for now.
Across the rest of the battlefield, the Sky-splitting God King, Eternal Ancestor, Father of the Sand Sea, Burning Flame Ancestor, and the other five Abyss Demon Gods all got hurled back violently by the self-explosion's shockwaves, their divine forms trembling, energies in disarray, struck by assorted lingering harms.
Silence gripped the chaotic void sea.
Just the lingering traces of ultimate frost and ruin from the Ice Demon Ancestor's detonation, plus the orphaned [Frozen Heart] and [Dimension Anchor] adrift without owners, quietly told of the bloodshed and defiance in that moment.
By fully erasing itself, the Ice Demon Ancestor had traded its existence to slay one Abyss transcendent Demon God and cripple two peers from the City of Transcendence.
