Chapter 1163: Are Your Steps That Big?
"Have the statistics come out yet?" Emperor Ya asked.
"Ten of the Sky race's cosmic strongest experts, including the Spacetime Star divine son Eres, have fallen," South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting said with a penetrating gaze. "Thirty-six Supreme Lifeforms perished, and countless are gravely injured."
"Haha, turns out the Sky race is so useless?" West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui laughed wildly: "Always pretending to be powerful, it seems they actually lacked strength."
"Heh." Twilight Emperor let out a snicker.
"What are you laughing at!" West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui glared: "Did I say something wrong?"
"The Sky race is not weak," South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting interjected: "It's just that this time our surprise attack from behind caught them off guard, and combined with an alliance with the spiritual race, the strength race, and humans, our absolute overpowering strength caused the Sky race to suffer such heavy losses."
"Mm," the Spiritual Empress nodded: "The element of surprise is one aspect, but home ground advantage is the most important. Fighting on the Hades Star and fighting on the Sky race's Primal Chaos Star would yield completely different results."
West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui pursed his lips.
He knew that this plan had been executed to perfection.
The Sky race had stepped right into the trap they had carefully laid out, which led to this great success!
But there were always some who didn't want to admit it.
"Eastern Hades Emperor was right, the Jin Shang Emperor is indeed formidable," South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting said with sincere admiration.
This alliance with humans had brought unprecedented success!
It could almost be said to have caused the Sky race to collapse by half!
Now, their Dark race's combat prowess has even surpassed that of the Sky race, placing them first in the origin cosmic!
"His formidability is something you don't yet understand," Emperor Ya murmured.
He had personally witnessed the Jin Shang Emperor killing one cosmic strongest expert after another, his combat prowess terrifyingly formidable!
But since the Jin Shang Emperor didn't wish to reveal himself, he would not widely publicize it.
"Strange," South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting said as he looked at the data, suddenly confused: "Why is the mortality rate of the Sky race's strongest experts so high, while that of the Supreme Lifeforms is actually lower?"
"Indeed," West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui also sensed something was amiss: "Aren't the normal ratios of fallen almost similar? This time, the difference is too great."
"Because our spiritual race's attacks were more focused on the cosmic strongest experts," the Spiritual Empress said with a smile: "Top combat power is the foundation of a race. By crushing the Sky race's cosmic strongest experts, their defeat is natural."
That makes sense!
South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting and West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui nodded.
Despite some lingering doubts, coincidences do happen, and since they achieved a great victory, there was no need to delve into these trivial details.
"It was a pleasure working with you, Spiritual Empress," Wang Ye chimed in at the right time: "This grievous blow to the Sky race shows our cooperation was seamless. I hope our next alliance will be just as smooth and we can crush the Sky race in one fell swoop!"
"The pleasure is mine," the Spiritual Empress nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes twinkling: "But since things went so smoothly, why not seize the moment to strike another blow?"
Another blow!?
South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting and West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui were taken aback.
"What do you mean by that?" Wang Ye feigned surprise.
"Strike while the iron is hot!" the Spiritual Empress's voice was melodious and certain: "The Sky race is now not only severely wounded but also low in spirits. It's a prime opportunity for us to expand our advantage."
"Opportunities come but once, miss it and it's gone!"
"Missing this chance to attack the Sky race, once they recover, attacking the Primal Chaos Star will become an even more daunting challenge!"
Attack the Sky race's Primal Chaos Star!!!
South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting and West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui exchanged looks.
Is the step we're taking that big?
Can this succeed?
"Oh?" Wang Ye played along: "Do you mean to say, we should collectively march into the Sky race's territory?"
"We feign attacks on two Primal Chaos Stars and focus on conquering one," the Spiritual Empress's pupils shimmered: "The Sky race's internal factional power struggles are just as fierce. The three Primal Chaos Stars will definitely be defended independently, especially now that they are severely weakened, they are unlikely to send reinforcements elsewhere."
"We can use our absolute strength advantage to take them down one by one."
"First conquer Spacetime Star, then Spacetime Star, and finally march upon the Ancestral Star!"
Wang Ye reflected: "Spacetime Star has the weakest defense and is easiest to conquer, while Spacetime Star has stronger military power than Ancestral Star, it's occupied by the Sky race and not the gods of the Golden-Winged Divine Race."
"So in terms of difficulty of conquest, the Ancestral Star comes last."
"Exactly," the Spiritual Empress said: "Going from easy to difficult, is also a gradual deterrence to the Sky race, a continuous and increasingly severe blow to their morale."
"Additionally, the Sky race has the support of the Golden-Winged Divine Race behind them, they might very well seek assistance from above."
"Hence, we must strike swiftly and decisively!"
...
As they proposed ideas back and forth, the strongest experts of the Dark race were baffled.
Spiritual Princess Ling Qi held back her laughter on the side.
She obviously knew that her husband and the Spiritual Empress were putting on an act, all to persuade the Dark race to send troops!
Although the Dark race was currently under control, there's a significant difference between making the first move and being reactive.
What her husband wanted was not only for the Dark race to attack but also to exhaust a massive amount of the Dark race's combat power to take down the Sky race!
To save as much of their own strength as possible for the final unification of the origin cosmic!
Of course, regardless of whether the Dark race agrees or not.
Attacking the Sky race is imperative!
Because time, was running extremely short.
They had to seize the Sky race before the Golden-Winged Divine Race arrived!
To settle everything once and for all!
...
In the grand hall of Hades Star.
"Let me be the first to express my stance," Wang Ye swept his gaze over the strongest experts of the Dark race: "I think what the Spiritual Empress has said makes sense. This is an excellent opportunity to defeat the Sky race once and for all!"
"Better to go all out than to be overly cautious!"
"And the spiritual race and humans have agreed, the first conquered Spacetime Star will belong to our Dark race!"
"The unique high-dimensional Heavenly Dao of Spacetime Star can make up for our Dark race's shortcomings, it's extremely valuable and will be very beneficial for our future!"
"Thus, I agree!"
South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting and West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui exchanged glances.
Too fast!
They hadn't even had time to react.
A vote already?
Although the Sky race is currently severely injured, they themselves have not yet recovered from the previous fierce battle.
Another battle with the Sky race could potentially lead to mutual destruction!
"I think we should consider..." South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting hesitated, just about to speak.
"Agreed," Yijin Emperor stated his position directly.
```
No unnecessary chit-chat, the main point was stated without hesitation.
"Wait!" West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui suddenly got up.
"I also agree," Northern Hades Emperor Qiao De's final stance brought a hush over the grand hall.
South Nether Emperor Wa Qiuting and West Netherworld Emperor Zang Gui had extremely bizarre expressions.
Staring blankly at Northern Hades Emperor Qiao De, they did not know what had gotten into him.
How could you just agree!
Brother, we're from the Hades Star!
Agreeing my ass!
"Trust in the Jin Shang Emperor," Northern Hades Emperor Qiao De said gravely, "The first time we cooperated, we won a total victory."
"I believe the second time will be the same!"
"Destroy the Sky race! Elevate our Dark race! Achieve it all in one fell swoop!"
"Exactly! There's nothing to fear from the Sky race, just do it!"
"It's time for the Dark race to rise!"
"Onward! Let's have a killing spree!" Your adventure continues at empire
Leading the charge were the Twilight Emperor and the Dark Mist Emperor, the strongest experts of the Nine Calamity Star yelled out.
Their high morale stimulated the strongest experts from the side of the Hades Star, also making their blood surge with excitement and agitation.
It's just the Sky race!
The last fight showed they were not that impressive!
Hell yes!
"Then it's decided," Wang Ye slammed down without waiting for the two dumbstruck Netherworld Emperors to speak, making an immediate decision.
"Prepare briefly, then set out at once!"
*
*
Spacetime Star.
In stark contrast to the Dark race's mightiest experts, who were confident and spirited.
The Sky race's morale had plummeted to the lowest point!
A thorough and utter defeat!
Not only had the Dark race taught them a harsh lesson.
But this loss was even more devastating than any they had suffered since the ancient Divine Spirits' war!
Ten of the cosmic strongest experts!
Including divine sons!
It was a disastrous news!
Like a resounding slap to the face of the Sky race!
Telling the Sky race that they were no longer the behemoth that once controlled the origin cosmic!
The fall of one-third of their strongest experts dealt a fatal blow to the Sky race!
In the short term, it was difficult to recover!
"Say something, what should we do next?" Divine Son Lotaro's face was ugly, his voice no longer arrogant.
Dead silence.
Many divine sons and goddesses who just learned the news were dumbfounded.
Let alone voice their opinions.
"I think, why not seek aid from the Golden-Winged Divine Race?" Divine Daughter Reena spoke up.
"That's not an option!" Divine Daughter Luo Qingyin vetoed, "You should know, once we ask for help, we have no other way out."
"Then what can we do?" Divine Daughter Reena looked straight at Luo Qingyin, "Our vitality is severely injured, on the contrary, the Dark race has allied with the spiritual race, humans, and the Strength race. They will surely launch a fierce attack on our Primal Chaos Stars next. Can we withstand it?"
"Why can't we withstand it?" Divine Daughter Luo Qingyin said, "The defeat at Hades Star was not due to battle."
"We were just calculated and backstabbed, it doesn't mean we're weaker than them."
"With the home field advantage of the Primal Chaos Stars, focusing on defense rather than offense, we have nothing to fear from their alliance."
"Besides, they might not dare to attack us."
Divine Daughter Reena said, "Even if they don't attack, we've lost our advantage. Tell me, with our vitality severely injured, can we continue to control the origin cosmic independently?"
"Add to that the Netherworld Race backing the Dark race, ready to approach the origin cosmic at any time."
"Rather than being passively controlled by others later, it's better to actively seek assistance now, even if we have to submit to the Golden-Winged Divine Race, at least..."
"We can still save our clan!"
Her words resounded firmly.
Divine Daughter Reena's speech left the Sky race's strongest experts with complicated expressions.
To submit was something they could not bear.
After all, they were proud sons of heaven!
Nobody wanted to be subjugated by other strong powers!
But not to submit – the current situation was already very dire, and very unfavorable to them!
What's more, with their vitality significantly harmed, the possibility of vying for control of the origin cosmic was indeed very slim!
To seek aid or not?
The collective strongest experts of the Sky race hesitated.
Suddenly—
"There's no need to discuss this matter any further," divine son Lotaro suddenly tightened his brows, his face changing in an instant.
"Immediately seek aid from the Golden-Winged Divine Race and ask for their protection!"
"Brother!" Divine Daughter Luo Qingyin called out anxiously.
Divine Son Lotaro raised his hand, interrupting her, "No need to say more, my mind is made up."
"Furthermore, everyone back to your positions!"
"Quickly prepare the defenses of the Primal Chaos Stars!"
The pupils of the Sky race's strongest experts rapidly contracted, vaguely understanding what was about to unfold.
"Right," Divine Son Latoro's stern gaze swept over the experts, his voice hoarse and heavy.
"They're about to launch a major offensive!"
