Chapter 642: Chapter642-The Encircled Beastbound Warrior
The gathered powers began to deliberate.
They activated the War Council Hall first used during the war between the Chaos Source and the Primordial Ancients.
Hundreds of top-tier factions, including Celestian, Beaststar Sylvan, Council of Kunkar, and Oblivion Sanctum, jointly presided over the council.
Their primary objective was clear: the one hundred million Beastbound Warrior who had breached the isle!
Dong—!
At that moment, the Starlight Clock quaked again!
From the chaotic depths of Endless Starlight Isle, the Fate River emerged.
The primordial power of the Arcane Godsea resonated with billions of star domains, causing them all to tremble violently.
A mysterious aura gradually spread, coalescing into a dawn-like mist of light, stretching across temples, sanctuaries, and star systems alike, like an auroral sky woven by divine hands.
"Endless Starlight Shield!"
Deep within the chaotic star realms, the Chaos Titan, Amethyst King, perceived everything. His violet pupils flared with searing brilliance.
"The Endless Starlight Shield has been activated!"
Beings across Endless Starlight Isle cried out in awe and alarm.
"Phew—"
The Rock Mountain Sage Rank and Red Moon Priests exhaled deeply.
At last, security was ensured!
Next came the direct confrontation with the Crossbridge Divine Court.
...
In the vast chaotic sea between the Standarin Universe and Endless Starlight Isle,
Cursefont Star God and his advancing legions suddenly halted, sensing something extraordinary.
Deep within the Standarin Universe, Aurek furrowed his brows.
Roar—!
A Divine Court dragon erupted skyward, its golden scales illuminating the Star Sea like daylight.
"Transmit my will! Summon the Crusader Goddess, the Eternal Sunfire War God...!"
A Sacred Envoy Rank immediately soared forth.
Imperial authority spread throughout the Standarin Universe in an instant. Golden letters pierced star systems and thundered across the endless Star Sea.
The Crusader Goddess Venus, Eternal Apollo Sunblaze, Alvin, Dragon Emperor, and other powerful beings felt their minds tremble.
In the blink of an eye, generals began opening Star-Realm Gates, rushing back to the Standarin Universe, respectfully waiting outside the Sword Sea Sanctum.
Aurek stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze cold and severe.
"Abnormal activity has emerged across the Star Sea. Venus and Apollo, immediately dispatch ten billion Supreme Sage Rank to reinforce our positions."
Venus frowned, asking, "Your Majesty? Is something happening at the Celestial Light God Realm?"
Aurek nodded slightly.
"There is a being surpassing quasi-Eternal Sage Rank threatening the sanctum. The Divine Court Dragon has already been activated."
Aurek controlled Fate, Luck, and Imperial Power.
Both Luck and Imperial Power were rooted in the Crossbridge Divine Court.
The fortune of the Divine Court converged upon the Supreme Sanctuary, forming the Divine Court Dragon.
This dragon possessed strength capable of contending with quasi-Eternal Sage Ranks. The moment it moved, Aurek could sense it.
Although the exact trigger remained unknown, the activation of the Divine Court Dragon indicated that the enemy was at least as powerful as a quasi-Eternal Sage Rank, or that something beyond reason was occurring.
This was unexpected for Aurek.
He had previously scouted the Star Sea; some Supreme Sage Rank were lurking in the shadows, but he had dismissed them.
Yet a being surpassing quasi-Eternal Sage Rank had evaded his notice entirely.
Even he had not detected it. This threat was no trivial matter.
He even suspected it might be a taboo being from the Dark Abyss.
Whatever the cause, with the Divine Court Dragon in motion, he had to eliminate the threat completely.
In the next instant, Aurek’s mirror projection set out on its return journey.
...
At the northern edge of Endless Starlight Isle,
Nearly four hundred thousand quasi-Eternal Sage Rank led over one hundred million Supreme Sage Rank drawn from across star domains, forming a tidal wave that blotted out the sky.
They advanced upon the Beastbound Warrior legion, their killing force like a furious storm, instantly engulfing and annihilating vast swathes of the enemy.
"Retreat!"
The Golden Armor, hidden within Endless Starlight Isle, issued orders to the Beastbound Warrior army.
The force of four hundred thousand quasi-Eternal Sage Rank alone was sufficient to obliterate the one hundred million Beastbound Warrior.
Not to mention the additional millions of Supreme Sage Rank providing support.
Yet this was merely a vanguard force, temporarily drawn from the factions of Endless Starlight Isle.
Each quasi-Eternal Sage Rank commanded only ten Supreme Sage Rank.
Upon receiving the order, the Beastbound Warrior transformed into blazing Sun Birds, tearing open Star-Realm Gates to escape.
Others fell like shooting stars, scattering across the isle, taking forms of ants, insects, or other small creatures, quietly hiding.
Though some were hunted down by the quasi-Eternal Sage Rank, a portion successfully evaded capture and linked back with the Golden Armor.
Most Beastbound Warrior successfully retreated from Endless Starlight Isle.
At the moment of their withdrawal, the Endless Starlight Shield closed with a thunderous roar, enveloping the entire Star Sea like a colossal cage.
Cursefont Star God Merxis, Suggwoth, and their legions rapidly approached Endless Starlight Isle, merging with the retreating Beastbound Warrior.
"No need to pursue,"
a quasi-Eternal Sage Rank of the Annihilation Divine Court raised his hand to halt the advance.
He stood at the edge of Endless Starlight Isle, gazing toward the distant boundary of chaos, his expression solemn.
The oppressive aura from that distance pressed upon his heart like a mountain.
He knew that Aurek’s ten-billion Supreme Sage Rank legion had arrived.
Launching an attack before preparation would only result in disaster.
Nevertheless, the four hundred thousand quasi-Eternal Sage Rank and over one hundred million Supreme Sage Rank remained.
They held the edge of the Endless Starlight Shield, waiting for the forces on the isle to muster sufficient strength to annihilate the Crossbridge Divine Court.
...
At the chaotic sea boundary,
Merxis, Suggwoth, and others sensed the tremendous aura emanating from Endless Starlight Isle.
It was like a sleeping behemoth — when awakened, it would shatter the heavens.
They understood that this power was not to be trifled with.
"What is the situation inside?" Suggwoth asked.
A Beastbound Warrior stepped forward to report,
"All factions of Endless Starlight Isle have mobilized, and the Endless Starlight Shield has been activated."
"The recent assault involved several hundred thousand quasi-Eternal Sage Rank and about one hundred million Supreme Sage Rank. According to Golden Armor, this is just the tip of their strength. Golden Armor has stationed forces inside to act opportunistically."
Eighty million Beastbound Warrior had withdrawn.
Twenty million remained inside; some were slain, while others successfully concealed themselves.
The Endless Starlight Shield had been activated, so a portion needed to remain inside to monitor for opportunities.
Golden Armor, positioned within, required their cooperation.
They had previously misjudged the strength and speed of Endless Starlight Isle, particularly the shield and combined forces.
Though Suggwoth had prepared, he had not anticipated that this isle, composed of billions of star domains, was so cohesive, rather than fragmented.
Traditional gradual attrition strategies would likely fail.
"Report this to His Majesty first. Then we can test the resilience of the Endless Starlight Shield and formulate a combat plan," Alvin suggested.
Suggwoth had the same intention. He feared no battle, but could not waste forces unnecessarily.
"War Bear, lead ten billion troops in a small-scale probe, focusing on the Endless Starlight Shield," Suggwoth commanded.
"Understood!"
War Bear bowed and accepted the order.
