Global Era of Star trekking

Chapter 1768: Chapter 862: The Annihilation of the Chaos Demon Ape Clan (Part 2)

"No, the Chaos Demon Ape clan’s relationship with us has always been tense; if anything, they should come to us. Why should we rush to them?"

"War King, in the current situation, how can we afford to worry about such things?"

"Agreed, with the Chaotic Demon Ape clan’s Superlimit Level Ancestor City, if we provide support from the rear, they could withstand the siege by the Transcendence Army for a very long time."

...

As discussions continued, more and more captains inclined towards secretly supporting the Chaos Demon Ape clan. However, Prince Xiangri of the Immortal Qin Royal Family, Ying Wei, added another point.

"Our support alone isn’t enough. If we could involve the Wizard Civilization, Emperor Barbarian Tribe, and others, not only could we share the burden of the support resources, but the Chaos Demon Ape clan would receive more resources each time, extending their resistance."

"Seems feasible!"

With this conclusion, the result was practically settled, though to achieve it, convincing the Wizards, Emperor Barbarian Tribe, and others was just one step; there was another crucial aspect.

"If we truly reach a support agreement, how can we secretly and promptly deliver resources to the Chaos Demon Apes? Zhu Tian Ruins Market?"

Someone tentatively asked, and smiles flickered in everyone’s eyes in the hall.

"Of course!"

From the start, Zhu Tian Ruins Market was the agreed transfer point for most captains present. However, to completely address this issue, they needed to consult the influential Dragon Spine Song Family in Zhu Tian Ruins Market.

"What’s the situation over at Greedy Wolf? Has the Expedition Fleet encountered significant resistance in the Lanikea River System Cluster?"

As Ji Heng’s query rang out, Song Yan quickly stood up and replied:

"Your Majesty, due to the news of you officially ascending as the second Mythical Power of the civilization spreading throughout the Starry Sea, those top-tier advanced civilizations in the Lanikea River System Cluster have not shown much resistance. Even the Rashamon Clan, despite receiving requests for aid, hasn’t appeared. Currently, the Expedition Fleet’s progress is swift. Preliminary estimates suggest that Torch Civilization will completely occupy the entire Lanikea River System Cluster in less than a thousand years."

"Very well, Ji Heng and I will contact Greedy Wolf immediately. There’s no need to worry about the Ruins Market Token issue."

...

The information Song Yan conveyed revealed much, and upon hearing that the Expedition Fleet is expected to control the entire Lanikea River System Cluster within a millennium, all captains present in the Human Emperor Hall displayed expressions of excitement.

It’s an entire River System Cluster, and crucially, the Lanikea River System Cluster is considered a medium-sized cluster with a diameter exceeding 1.3 billion light-years, encompassing 1,205 river systems. Its size surpasses two-thirds of both the Eight-Armed Snake Demon River System Cluster and the Corpse Emperor Clan River System Group combined.

One can imagine the sheer quantity of rare resources this cluster contains.

Although they themselves did not directly participate in this civilization expansion war, the rewards post-war for their backing forces won’t be lacking.

After all, they remained in the Human Emperor City to safeguard it. Were it not to ensure the safety of the Human Emperor City, why would they choose to stay behind at such a time? Why would two Mythical Immortal Ships continue guarding the Human Emperor City, while leaving the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, still a Superdimensional Mother Ship, at the Torch Expedition Army Headquarters?

As another star realm barrier was torn in the holo-image, Jiang Yuan drew a golden trajectory with his fingertip in the void.

At the end of the trajectory, a silver token inscribed with "Walk" appeared out of thin air.

"Greedy Wolf has agreed that the Lord of All Heavens Ruins Market has approved opening a transfer and trading channel in the ruins market."

In just a few years, envoys sent to the Wizards, Emperor Barbarians, Angels, and other civilizations returned with good news. All the high-ranking members were persuaded, agreeing to secretly support the Chaos Demon Ape clan together.

In the times to follow, according to the agreement, several Dominator Civilizations of the Shattered Starry Sea clandestinely united to aid the Chaos Demon Apes, significantly slowing the advancement of the Mythical Armies invading the Heavenly Ape Star Realm.

...

The year is 1420 of the Origin Star’s detachment from Chaos Divine Land, Heavenly Ape Star Realm, [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City].

As the only Superlimit Chaos City within the Heavenly Ape Star Realm, [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City] serves as the ancestral city of the Chaos Demon Ape clan, having stood firm for several epochs.

Yet, this ancient city is now a ruin, with the inscriptions from countless rules on its dark red chaos walls long eroded, and fissures with diameters of millions or even billions of kilometers crisscrossing it, rendering the city unstable.

"Break it!"

Above the horizon outside the city, several figures brighter than the sun hovered in the sky, their gestures bringing down endless rule universes.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At a certain moment, the walls of [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City] completely collapsed, and countless Alien Race Armies poured through the breached sections, raising even more brutal battles, now inside the city.

Heavenly Ape Star Realm, Torch Human Emperor City.**

Within the grand hall, the Holo-Star Map shook violently, scarlet warning runes pouring down like a blood rain.

"[Heaven-Reaching Chaos City]... has fallen."

Jiang Yuan’s voice was deep and cold, resonating in the silent Human Emperor Hall.

In the holographic projection, the once towering ancestral city of the Chaos Demon Apes had been engulfed by endless Yellow Spring sandstorms.

The image froze at the moment when the last Mythical Powerhouse of the Demon Ape clan self-destructed — its flesh and blood transformed into billions of scarlet chains, forcibly holding back three Mythical Armies for half a month. Yet even this couldn’t allow the surviving Chaos Demon Apes to initiate the final [Chaos Exile] ritual.

Alas, in the end, fate wasn’t reversed.

"The Sand Spirit Clan, Abyss Demon Race, Ice Demon Clan... Six Transcendence Armies are advancing towards the Human Emperor City."

Ji Heng tapped the Star Map, invasion trajectories sprawling like venomous snakes.

"At their rate of advance, it will be no more than three hundred years before the flames of war reach our gates."

Inside the grand hall, all the captains remained silent.

For over a thousand years, the Torch Civilization, along with the Wizards, Emperor Barbarian, Angels, and other Dominator Civilizations, had clandestinely funneled resources to the Chaos Demon Apes. Even going as far as using secret channels of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, only barely managed to slow the collapse of the Chaos Demon Ape clan.

Yet, in the end, without a Transcender to anchor the Chaos Demon Apes, they couldn’t withstand the combined annihilation efforts of several Transcendent Forces.

Now, all the pressure shifted to themselves.

"Our time is running out." Jiang Yuan slowly raised his head, his deep eyes flickering with streams of data.

——

At the same time, Endless Broken Star Sea, Lanikea River System Cluster, Torch Expedition Army Headquarters.

Song Chi stood on the bridge of the flagship, "Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong," overlooking the newly conquered Star Domain beneath his feet.

After more than a thousand years of warfare, despite a few unexpected occurrences midway, the Torch Civilization’s Expedition Fleet now held over ninety percent of the Lanikea River System Cluster’s territory in complete subjugation.

Currently, this vast expanse spanning over 1.3 billion light-years has become the fourth direct River System Cluster under the Torch Civilization, promising to furnish the civilization with almost inexhaustible resources for millennia, eons, or even millions of years to come.

However, the joy of victory hadn’t lasted long before the news of the Chaos Demon Ape’s destruction arrived like a thunderclap through the Seed of Torch imprinted on his brow.

"How could it be that even with numerous Dominator Civilizations secretly supporting them, the Chaos Demon Ape’s ancestral city only lasted less than a thousand years?"

Musing to himself, Song Chi’s eyes grew intensely heavy.

This was entirely contrary to their secret plans; just over a thousand years of delay was not enough. The Holy Hall Continent has yet to begin its ascension, with the Heavenly Holy Light and Immortal Qin Ancestor Dragon still in full preparation.

In other words, even if one of the Extreme Superdimensional Mother Ships successfully ascends as a Mythical Immortal Ship in the following centuries, Ying Yi and Ferdinand breaking through the Tenth Rank Guiding Technique in so short a time was almost impossible.
