Chapter 1971 - 1096: Fierce Battle, Red Sun’s Hidden Move
Chapter 1971: Chapter 1096: Fierce Battle, Red Sun’s Hidden Move
"Have all the various warlords reached their designated positions?"
At this moment, the Sun Empress, dressed in a phoenix robe, found her sharp and excruciatingly displeasing spiritual will somewhat hoarse.
Because, in these two millennia of bloody wars, even the Sun Empress, who presided over the overall situation, couldn’t avoid exhaustion.
After all, she wasn’t just commanding from the center; she personally took down the head of the Emperor Slayer.
She shattered all the Emperor Slayer’s resources and handed them over to her capable warlords under her banner!
In mere days, not only was a half-step forbidden peak strongest entirely refined, but even each of her warlords had significantly improved.
Even the once heavily wounded Sunshine Third Emperor managed to unblock his meridians and recover old injuries, directly entering the late stage of the half-step taboo by relying on half of the Dimension Heart of the Emperor Slayer.
The Sun Empress’s personal commander, Shadow Bird, also stepped into the late stage of the half-step taboo with the other half of the Dimension Heart!
As for the Sun Empress herself, aside from refining a few soul bones of the Emperor Slayer, she had no interest in the remaining resources.
Her ability to personally remove the Emperor Slayer’s head meant that her combat power was destined to surpass his.
She was also an unmatched quasi-taboo of supreme strength!
A single Bright Day System with two supreme quasi-taboos truly represents the real strength of an ancient overlord who has dominated the Wangshu Zone for countless eras!
The power of the Sun Empress also elevated the morale and unity of the entire Bright Day System’s army to a new peak again.
"Empress, a total of sixty-three warlords have all arrived at their designated positions. Thirteen of them will serve as mobile forces to aid the entire field, and fifty will attack the Red Sun Stellar System from five directions,
while our central army still possesses a force of 265 trillion, ready to fixate on the main force of the Red Sun Empire and those remaining trillions of veterans. When they appear, they will be completely annihilated!"
At this time, the Sun Empress’s personal commander, Shadow Bird, reverently replied.
In her spiritual will, there was a hint of determination to kill and hatred towards the Red Sun Empire veterans.
Having followed the Empress for so long, Shadow Bird had witnessed numerous grand occasions,
yet never had she seen a military force, not even reaching a mere 2 trillion, cause over 40 trillion casualties to their main army.
Currently, that Red Sun veterans’ force still numbers around a trillion!
This represents a war-loss ratio of approximately 1 to 50!
An exaggeration that’s hard to imagine!
Shadow Bird had also participated in that battle, and how could she not feel immense shame about it?
Even if that Red Sun veterans’ force boasted 300 billion Heavenly Boundary, strong formation diagrams, battle formations, fortune, and was augmented with the Blazing Flame Body forged by true blood of Blazing Flame, it shouldn’t have been like this!
Unless that veterans’ force is completely slaughtered, Shadow Bird and the elite war generals and War Kings of the central army won’t feel dignified standing before the Empress.
They promised to extinguish the Red Sun Empire within a millennium when they set out!
But now, more than 2000 years have passed, and the Red Sun Empire still exists!
The shame and hatred have long penetrated deep into the hearts of Shadow Bird and all the war generals and War Kings.
"Good! It’s good to have this belief!"
The Sun Empress sensed the belief surging in Shadow Bird’s heart, nodding approvingly.
After all, amidst the bloodiest and most brutal combats, such belief, hatred, and shame, along with the honor and confidence forged through countless eras, will support the battle to the end!
"Next, I issue the Phoenix Order, notify the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander, to launch an attack on the western region of the Red Sun Empire in three days, while we will launch a general offensive at the same time. In this battle, Shadow Bird, you will command my 100 billion Heavenly Boundary followers to oversee the war, clearly warning the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander that if the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan retreats, you will first slaughter all war generals and above, and massacre their immense descendants. Of course, if any of my Bright Day System warlords retreat, the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan can also turn their forces against them!
In summary, in this battle, we gamble everything! Whoever retreats will be killed! After this battle ends, all resources belong to everyone; even if it turns into a mad scramble, I, the Sun Empress, will not intervene!"
This Phoenix Order of the Sun Empress left Shadow Bird with an extremely solemn expression.
For she knew the entire Bright Day System only had just over 1,000 billion Heavenly Boundary remaining!
The remaining few hundred billion were in the hands of various military groups and marquises, while the rest, 1,000 billion, were the personal followers of the Sun Empress.
Thus, the weight and trust of this task need not be further explained.
This made Shadow Bird’s eyes gleam with a steadfastness as warriors die for their confidants,
She directly knelt, bowing before the Empress, solemnly accepting the Phoenix Order, and then quickly spread it throughout the entire Bright Day System army and the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan army stationed here.
This severe Phoenix Order caused some marquises of the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan to become restless.
But after their War Commander executed one with iron-blooded authority, all military groups behaved obediently.
For even the War Commander understood that the Bright Day System and the Red Sun Empire were truly embarking on the final showdown.
This time, it would be determined who would ultimately become the true overlord of the Wangshu Zone!
Therefore, should they dare to drag the Bright Day System down, the "whoever retreats will be killed" mentioned in the Phoenix Order is no idle threat.
"Order all military units present to launch a general attack on the western region of the Red Sun Empire in three days. This time, I don’t want casualty figures; I don’t want to hear about your fear or dread of the fierce war, all Void Abyss Mayfly Clan armies must overcome their genes, if unable, myself and the three ace military groups under me will help you overcome them!"
The Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander knew he was completely bound to the war chariot of the Bright Day System, with no retreat whatsoever!
This made him eyes glaring red, instigating a fierce resolve!
The Void Abyss Mayfly Clan, always guided by nature and genetic tendencies, was once again mobilized under this death threat!
Three days later,
The true ultimate showdown proceeded as scheduled.
This great battle wasn’t filled with the heavy personal heroism often depicted in literary works,
unless one is a taboo existence, in a super star war reaching tens of trillions, there is nothing but a collision of true iron-blooded soldier blades.
The Red Sun Emperor and the Sun Empress, these two unparalleled Wangshu Dominators, merely stared at each other for a long time before the decisive battle, without even transmitting a single spiritual will to boost morale.
Because every word of encouragement had been spoken over these two thousand years!
In the end, before the battle began, both sides uttered the same resolute and unwavering cry of "kill!"
The Bright Day System launched the offensive, starting with countless Star Energy Weapons and over a thousand fully assembled Star Sky Mother Ship Group bombarding the borders of the Red Sun Star System.
Then came the fearless Death-Defying Squads from various feudal lords.
Death-Defying Squads are usually called upon only during the fiercest of battles.
Although perhaps not the ace elites among the various feudal lords’ forces, the energy and combat power they can unleash in an instant are indeed frightening.
Because, from the moment they are formed, it signifies they will carve out a bloodstained path on the battlefield!
"Kill! For the Bright Day System! For the glory of the Blazing Flame Clan!"
The frenzied Death-Defying Squads from all sides roared with a belief of inevitable death.
These squads immediately burned all their Essence of Life, unleashing an incredibly terrifying combat strength.
Under the cover of the Extreme Heaven Realm Battle Formation, they forcefully carried numerous one-way foil-level killing devices designed for Breaking Formation across!
Boom!
These one-way foil-level killing devices roared one after another on the satellite arrays surrounding the Red Sun Empire.
Soon, they tore open a breach.
However, in a flash, numerous Red Sun Empire Death Warriors used their bodies to block the gap.
Both sides engaged in an extremely bloody melee, fighting hand-to-hand here.
Some of the Death-Defying Squads risked being suppressed by the vast destiny of the Red Sun Empire to directly uproot one Dark Fortress after another on the battlefield.
These Dark Fortresses, built with Star Stones by the Red Sun Empire, have a strength comparable to the main ship of the Star Sky Mother Ship Group, acting as permanent firepower points draining humans and beasts.
Yet under the charge of the Bright Day System’s Death-Defying Squads, some Exotic Beasts managed to slip inside,
despite being torn apart dozens of times, they still rushed in.
Upon entering, they expended everything, exploded violently.
The self-detonation power of Heavenly Boundary Marks is immense, and brings irreversible destruction to other Heavenly Realm Beasts and Ancestor Level Exotic Beasts, causing the Dark Fortresses to be uprooted quickly.
This battle demonstrated high morale, integrity, and military discipline from both the Bright Day System and Red Sun Empire.
Apart from the Military Groups from the Black Sun Constant Star and Wolf Pack Civilization, no other military forces could compare!
In the midst of this brutal battle, the Red Sun Emperor simply stood quietly atop the palace of his Main Star, no longer participating personally.
His eyes, once dominant over the Starry Sky, gazed at this battlefield seemingly stained with blood, naturally revealed a trace of melancholy and pain.
Meanwhile, the Sun Empress charged on the front lines, hanging the Emperor Slayer’s head high on the battle banner, trying to invite the Red Sun Emperor for a duel.
But at this moment, the Red Sun Emperor truly had a hero’s waning aura.
He was like a lonely giant,
almost all Red Sun Empire forces were out fighting bloodily, leaving only him and a few followers guarding this huge Imperial City.
Among them was the State Preceptor who personally ventured to the Wolf Pack Civilization, standing prominently within.
"Emperor, let them give it another try, maybe we still have a chance! You don’t have to take this road of no return! Once embarked upon, the Starry Sky Will and all factions will see you as an eyesore, a thorn, just like what happened to Blazing Flame Ink in the last Era,"
The State Preceptor accompanied the Emperor, with his spiritual will reflecting gravity and solemnity.
Perhaps only the State Preceptor understood the Emperor’s final and greatest trump card among all species within the Red Sun Empire?
But he also knew, that road was a dead end!
Once taken, like the Star Sky Insect Clan, they might be extremely prosperous for a time, but will eventually fall into unnecessary expansion and self-destruction!
The State Preceptor once thought the Wolf Lord would be the first to walk this irreversible path after the battle at the Hundred Stars Alliance.
Only he underestimated the sheer amount of slaughter it takes to achieve this path!
Also underestimated how many lives the Red Sun Emperor had slaughtered in his founding war?
The nine Stellar Systems refining into his body indeed formed the Nine Yang Blazing Flame Body which were Fourth Level Peak Stellar Systems!
His body also contains over three-digit numbers of Small Constant Stars and scattered stars.
So, if the Red Sun Emperor wants to truly break through, he might have to refine the entirety of the Red Sun Star System!
For an Emperor to devour the empire he single-handedly built,
The sorrow, the desolation, the reluctance, perhaps only he himself knows how deep it is.
Moreover, renewing the Heavenly Boundary path implies that he must continually consume immense Star Energy and Power of All Living Beings to maintain the Heavenly Boundary Mark within,
The Red Sun Emperor would become nothing but a Demon God that only knows slaughter and needless expansions, his ultimate destiny would tragically end.
Perhaps even worse than Blazing Flame Ink’s fate!
Blazing Flame Ink lost, yet his prestige and fame still linger in the world!
Should the Emperor who renews the Heavenly Boundary path fall, then perhaps the entire Star Nebula would be filled with disdain and curses!
