Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 523 -523-The Star Sea’s Landscape- Styx Sector

This occasion brought him two unexpected special hero units.

The Cursefont Star God featured a human face atop a serpent's form—its build immense and imposing. Cosmic stars appeared to flicker within its gaze, while an ancient aura of beginnings twisted around it.

The Eternal Sunfire War God stood as a fighter wrapped completely in holy flames, with a wide stretch of the Star Sea hovering over his head.

Solar holy fire blazed in its eyes, its aura dreadfully overwhelming.

Aurek had reached Sage Master, Level Nine, but the presence from these two special hero units still filled him with a profound sense of danger—one that hinted at their tremendous might.

He understood that special heroes grew more powerful with greater attribute coverage, yet he hadn't anticipated these two war gods to command almost all attributes.

At such a boost, defeating a genuine Sage Master would surely prove straightforward.

Regarding their ability to challenge a quasi–Empyrean Sanctum... that demanded further testing.

...

Styx Sector.

This star area housed the Primordial Sword City, the Star Sea Giant Ape Clan, and the Seraphim.

Moreover, a branch hall of the Starfont Divine Court operated here, alongside a division of the Primordial Creation God Clan.

Boom!

Right then, a colossal armored figure—towering billions of meters—entered Styx Sector, gripping a blood-red battle axe while scanning the distant Star Sea expanses...

...

Eastern Star Region Forbidden Zone.

A pair of eyes abruptly snapped open.

In a flash, endless sword intent flooded the immense Star Sea.

Deep inside the Styx Great Star Abyss.

A slumbering giant ape moved slightly, unleashing a rush of Starlight that devoured vast stretches of star domains.

Golden light erupted through the infinite nebulae.

At that instant, fearsome beings across numerous worlds in the area stirred awake, their mental energies probing toward multiple forbidden zones.

"What on earth occurred... to rouse those particular ones?"

In a certain world, an elder with emerald crystal leaves sprouting from his head creased his brow.

You must realize—the Star Sea giant ape concealed in the great star abyss achieved the late stage of true Sage Lord rank eons ago, and now advanced toward the quasi–Empyrean Sanctum realm.

The Sword City lord in the Eastern Star Region Forbidden Zone, along with that primeval entity amid the nebula... they too pressed on toward quasi–Empyrean Sanctum.

What event could unsettle them?

Did the Starfont Divine Court and the Reincarnation Divine Court launch all-out conflict?

An ancient sovereign passed through a world gate to stand before the elder, delivering a deferential report.

"Ancestor! A faction known as the Crossbridge Empire ravages nearby worlds. It has seized multiple star regions already, with its vanguard now at Styx Sector's edges!"

"Crossbridge Empire—what sort of entity is that?" the elder inquired, confused.

"They hail from the eastern star regions. Their might isn't feeble. They boast six or seven Sage Masters and scores of ancient sovereigns."

"Battles have broken out along Styx Sector's fringes, though the reports haven't circulated widely yet."

The ancient sovereign explained.

"Tsk... who knew the eastern star regions hid such a group," the elder muttered. "It could easily serve as a pawn for one of the Divine Courts..."

"With the Divine Court conflict underway, even our domain might get pulled in."

...

"How many eras have elapsed, for any fool to target this star domain? Thomas—won't your Starfont Divine Court take charge and resolve it?"

From the Eastern Star Region Forbidden Zone, a booming voice shattered the world barrier and reached into Styx Sector.

A splendid holy temple emerged amid the laws.

Within that realm, Thomas, overseer of the Starfont Divine Court’s branch hall, peered into the Star Sea's depths, his forehead furrowed deeply.

The beings in the other two forbidden zones remained silent, yet their attention also locked onto this holy temple.

"This issue... the Starfont Divine Court shall address it."

Thomas declared.

Even he treaded carefully against those colossal figures.

For one, the Starfont Divine Court gathered forces. Styx Sector’s Primordial Sword City, Star Sea Giant Ape Clan, and Seraphim supplied vast numbers of warriors—a vital base for victory in battle.

For another, those colossal figures neared the quasi–Empyrean Sanctum realm. Should they touch the River of Fate, not even the Divine Court could overlook them.

...

Seraphim Territory.

Innumerable divine temples drifted under the Star Sea's vault.

The main palace anchored half in a world and half linked to the Star Sea.

"This Crossbridge Empire that appeared out of nowhere—have you uncovered their origins? Might they be a tool of the Reincarnation Divine Court?"

Within the hall, the reigning clan leader Aurelius questioned.

"So far, we know only that they originated from the eastern star regions. They've razed countless worlds, and per survivors fleeing to Styx Sector, their power terrifies!"

"Their legions at Sacred Radiance rank alone tally about one hundred million, with plenty of Sage King–rank experts."

An elder Sage Lord from the holy-wing clan informed.

"What?! So many Divine Radiants?!"

"The eastern star regions fall under Starfont Divine Court's watch—how did they permit this?"

A Sage Master demanded.

"The Divine Court’s oversight branch there got wiped out," the ancient Sage Lord stated.

"What?!"

"You're joking!"

Several shocked exclamations echoed through the hall.

"This Crossbridge Empire dares assault the Divine Court’s outposts?!"

"That's like openly warring with the Starfont Divine Court! What mad outfit is this Crossbridge Empire, acting so boldly?!"

One Sage Master uttered gravely.

"We'll observe how Thomas deals with it for now," Clan Leader Aurelius decided after brief reflection.

One hundred million Divine Radiant legions, aiming to storm Styx Sector?

That spelled pure suicide.

They planned no direct involvement—they'd defer to the Starfont Divine Court, guardian of order.

In the Celestial Light God Realm, the Starfont Divine Court towered over all factions. Yet in Styx Sector, things differed.

This area functioned more as a enlistment hub. For numerous issues, the Starfont Divine Court relied on alliances with the sector's powers!

At that point—

A beam of light streaked through a world gate, forming a sealed war missive that dangled under the Star Sea's ceiling.

With a pulse of mental force, Aurelius and the hall's Sage Masters seized it instantly.

A hand woven from laws bridged infinite emptiness to draw the missive inside.

Aurelius scanned it, then issued a chilly huff.

The surrounding Sage Masters glimpsed the contents too:

Submit, or be destroyed!

"Absurd," a Sage Master shook his head.

"The central cosmos war has ignited. Flames will reach us before long. All should ready themselves ahead."

Clan Leader Aurelius scoffed dismissively. Holy flame flared in his hand, reducing the war letter to cinders.

Such empty threats drew no regard—save if issued by the Divine Court proper.

...

Besides the Seraphim, the Star Sea Giant Ape Clan, Primordial Sword City, and further groups all got identical war letters.

The intelligence rapidly circulated through Styx Sector.

"This Crossbridge Empire acts like a frog in a well. Do they truly see Styx Sector as some forgotten eastern fringe?"

"Should they truly provoke the leading three clans, their origin world vanishes from the star charts."

"Their might holds some weight, but not enough for the top three clans to mobilize. Plus, the Starfont Divine Court will probably intervene and crush it."

"This obscure group merits no notice. The real buzz is the central cosmos war underway—if it engulfs us, that's true dread."

Against the Divine Court clash, the Crossbridge Empire's brash incursion seemed a mere trivial sideshow.

Styx Sector's mighty ones mostly dismissed it as farce.

...

In the eastern star regions, past the Celestial Light God Realm.

A cosmic-spanning world gate ripped apart, devouring endless miles of Star Sea and twisting into an infinite Star Sea whirlpool.

From the whirlpool's heart sailed a grand sky-vessel ranked as an Artifact of Authority, traversing the void en route to the Starlight Colonnade.

And at the Star Sea's far side...

A colossal Star Sea storm, spanning billions of meters, surged in mighty waves, barreling toward the Celestial Light God Realm.
