Summoning Millions of Gods Daily, My Strength Equals Theirs Combined Chapter 597 -597-One Man Overwhelms Nine Seats

After quite some time had passed.

Guy and Byrne, the pair of sturdy figures, came back from the Chaos Sea's boundary and reached Blue Sparrow Palace.

Each stride they made summoned a platform of sacred radiance under their soles, allowing them to instantly materialize in front of the group.

"This Aurek, what's his origin?"

Guy's tone rang out like clashing steel, sending ripples through the surrounding atmosphere.

The Vice Palace Master of Blue Sparrow Palace replied deliberately, "Rumor has it he's from the Myriad Races Star Sea, where he unleashed a huge disturbance and even slew Storm Thunder God."

At the news of Storm Thunder God's death, the two warriors creased their brows at the same time.

Byrne commented, "That feeble one, who only snagged the final spot because of his father god, the Lord of the Formless, and his ultimate divine skill, could still hold his own against a top-level Sage rank."

"Few in that desolate realm of the Myriad Races Star Sea possess the power to end him."

He halted, his stare piercing.

"Has his father god shown any reaction?"

A youth, his gaze brimming with awe, cut in.

"Lord Byrne, the Lord of the Formless has already headed to the Myriad Races Star Sea... to eliminate this Aurek."

Guy abruptly inquired, "And what of David and the rest?"

It went beyond just Storm Thunder God being ousted from the stone slab.

Once Aurek's name claimed the highest position, all nine spots underneath were cleared out.

This indicated that ten individuals had been displaced.

Besides Storm Thunder God, David and eight more were among them.

The Vice Palace Master's eyes scanned the assembly, and he responded measuredly.

"David and his companions remain locked in combat throughout the multiverse, oblivious to this development. Yet, the ancient powers supporting them have dispatched messengers to inform them."

He stopped briefly before resuming.

"Such an abrupt shift at the slab's summit is bound to spark massive turmoil across the whole Chaos Sea. For the moment, hold back and keep watch."

"This aligns with the Palace Master's directive."

Guy and Byrne stayed quiet, their gazes flickering with reluctance, though they found themselves powerless.

Whoever climbed onto the stone slab got shoved down by a full ten positions.

This signified that Aurek had provoked every contender who could access the slab, plus all the factions backing them.

When those figures came back, a dramatic showdown was inevitable.

Over the years, they had clashed through the multiverse, facing off against the mightiest entities from the Source Sea and the Truth Universe, advancing to the second-tier supreme Sage rank, not to mention the others.

The Chaos Singularity served as a broad label.

Beyond the stone slab, adrift in the Chaos Sea, lay innumerable vast sanctuaries, landmasses, and Star Sea realms, each embodying an unmatched dominant power.

Besides those, the Chaos Singularity brimmed with numerous chaotic territories held by colossal ancient entities.

For instance, ancient powers, primordial forces, chaotic powers, and origin forces... these all traced their roots to the ancient times of the Myriad Races Star Sea.

The Myriad Races Star Sea formed only a minor fragment of it all.

Take the Purple Crystal King from the Chaos Epoch, a fourth-tier supreme Sage rank powerhouse.

He ventured into the Truth Universe, plunged into the Source Sea Universe, waging wars across universe after universe to claim destinies and amplify his might.

No one could tell what level he had attained presently.

At this juncture, these powerhouses were making their return, steering clear of stirring up conflicts right now.

Yet to vault straight to the stone slab's peak and empty the nine positions below...

Aurek's name had swiftly turned into a blazing issue throughout the Chaos Singularity, subtly brewing across every drifting landmass.

...

Myriad Races Star Sea.

Stellar Source World, Sacred Mountain.

This realm stretched out in ways beyond comprehension.

Myriad landmasses hovered within the Star Sea, each rivaling a minor realm in scale.

Across these landmasses, urban centers clustered thickly, spires pierced the skies like thickets, and legions of creatures flourished.

At Sacred Mountain's heart rose a colossal holy metropolis.

The holy metropolis, forged from pure platinum and pristine white jade, gleamed resplendently in the Star Sea, akin to an eternal star.

Yet right now, the holy metropolis simmered with oppressive strain.

Along the avenues, inside inns, and across squares... throngs murmured and debated in low tones.

"The Crossbridge Empire's forces have pushed to the Divine Court's frontiers, and word is that negotiations have failed. That ruler won't yield an inch."

"Do they really command legions of tens of billions of Sage Masters?"

"Why would I fabricate it? Even the Sage Lord legions exceed a hundred billion!"

"Fresh update: Eternal Sunfire War God has shown up at Nitian Valley beyond the Sacred Mountain. General Swordfish lies slain, and the Divine Court forces have pulled back into the Sacred Mountain."

Terror rippled through the masses like a rampant plague.

...

Sacred Mountain, Starlight Sacred Hall.

High above in the chamber, a gigantic arcane formation spun leisurely, steadily channeling power to the entirety of Sacred Mountain.

Within the chamber, Duke Maupassant positioned himself before a vast panoramic pane.

Beyond the pane sprawled the innermost zone of Sacred Mountain.

Endless structures lined up neatly, and countless entities hustled about inside.

The near-Empyrean Sanctum general, Arlen, dropped to one knee and announced gravely.

"My lord, the Crossbridge Empire's armies have advanced to the Sacred Mountain's outer limits. Eternal Sunfire War God, at the head of ten billion Sage Masters and thirty billion Sage Lords, has launched an assault on the Sacred Mountain's eastern stellar zone."

"So swiftly?!"

The surrounding courtiers blanched.

Duke Maupassant's forehead creased as he sank into contemplation.

Sacred Mountain's commander, Yuse, advanced, his features grim.

"Alert the Holy Emperor without delay. We need to rally the armies for a counterstrike."

"If Crossbridge breaches the Sacred Mountain, the Four Holy Gates face immediate peril."

He faced Duke Maupassant, his eyes keen like daggers.

"Duke Maupassant, deploy every legion from the Sacred Mountain right away to halt their advance."

"Drawing on Sacred Mountain's might, we can at minimum stall them and grant the Holy Emperor precious moments."

Duke Maupassant offered no words.

Yuse's countenance grew stormier as he fixed him with a glare.

All the courtiers and Arlen shifted their focus to Duke Maupassant, awaiting his verdict.

Duke Maupassant gradually pivoted, his eyes gliding over the vibrant holy metropolis visible through the pane.

After an extended silence, he uttered in a profound tone.

"Engaging in battle will inevitably reduce Sacred Mountain to ruins."

He halted.

"The toll in lives here would be beyond reckoning."

Yuse's visage twisted sharply, fury igniting within.

"What, do you propose we yield?!"

Duke Maupassant stood with arms clasped behind, giving no answer.

Yuse bellowed in rage.

"This is utter insanity!"

"Duke Maupassant, the Holy Emperor will learn of every move you make. Mark my words, you'll face the consequences!"

He lunged ahead, but Duke Maupassant struck first.

In a flash, he vanished and reappeared at Yuse's rear, driving the cataclysmic force amassed in his hand straight through Yuse's torso.

Yuse's eyes bulged in shock as he stared at the gaping wound in his chest.

Duke Maupassant flicked his wrist, enveloping Yuse in a spatial barrier.

Inside the barrier, infinite law blades savagely tore apart, relentlessly slashing at Yuse's vital essence.

The courtiers in the chamber recoiled in terror, plunging the space into a chilling hush.

They all grasped the import of Duke Maupassant's choice.

Duke Maupassant pivoted slowly, his gaze passing over the assembly.

His tone remained steady, infused with unyielding command.

"The Crossbridge Empire's prowess has soared to inconceivable levels. Even the pinnacle Sage ranks have fallen to him."

"Frankly, resisting the Empire would doom every soul in Sacred Mountain to annihilation."

"Reaching an accord with the Empire is the sole path to safeguarding it all. I'll shoulder every accusation and reproach alone!"

"If any of you desire to depart, now is the time."

The chamber descended into profound quiet.

Arlen remained prostrated for an extended moment before declaring resolutely.

"Arlen pledges to stand by the lord."

"We pledge to stand by the lord!"

The courtiers all dropped to their knees, chorusing their vow.

They weren't naive. They recognized the overwhelming might of the Crossbridge Empire and the futility of challenging them at this stage!
