Chapter 988: Decisive Battle
Explosions continued throughout space.
In particular, the area where the Wings of the Sun God and the Cosmic Thearch collided was avoided by both cosmic lifeforms and humans alike, for fear of getting caught in the crossfire.
Although the Human Alliance might have gathered in immense numbers this time, the Gaias People had the wormhole technology, allowing them to mobilize the Cosmic Lifeform Alliance quickly. The war situation immediately fell into a stalemate, and the scale was even faintly tilting more toward the Cosmic Lifeform Alliance.
“Zerg! Assault!”
Twenty-odd Zerg Empresses emerged and summoned a massive number of elite Zerg from their flesh nests.
These Zerg were huge and had wings that could allow them to travel through space. Their mouthparts had energy clusters that acted as cannons, with destructive power not inferior to that of ordinary warship cannons.
The source of Zerg was endless, and the situation was slowly changing.
“It’s time, Wendy!
“Blood Dragons, mobilize!”
Fang Yuan was keeping watch on the battlefield, and he gave his order immediately when he saw this scene.
Suddenly, thousands of Blood Dragons appeared like a sharp knife on the battlefield, rushing toward the Zerg Empresses’ defense line.
“Attack!”
The psyche of many Zerg Empresses fluctuated, and they roared loudly.
A sudden turn of events!
Four of the Zerg Empresses under Fang Yuan’s control manipulated their tribes to attack the other Zerg!
Terrible cannon energy immediately fell onto its own defense lines, and the originally tight Zerg defense immediately became chaotic.
“Now! Kill!” Fu Hongxue yelled excitedly. He turned into a meteor, broke through a gap, and rushed to a Zerg Empress nest. “Ultimate Blood Dissolving Saber Chop!”
The blood-colored saber light flashed.
The giant Zerg nest became a blotch of pus and blood and fell apart.
“Kill!”
The other Blood Dragon mechas had a tacit understanding to kill the Zerg Empresses other than the four under Fang Yuan’s control.
Due to Wendy and the other Zerg Empresses turning on them, the Zerg suffered heavy losses.
“Impossible!” Seeing this, the King of Gaias, who was entangled with Augustus, wanted to go back and help.
“Your opponent… is me!”‘
Augustus transformed into a sun with two coronas outstretched, becoming two enormous wings that enveloped the Cosmic Thearch within.
“Augustus, I said before… You can’t defeat me!”
The Cosmic Thearch flashed a mysterious light and resisted the flames. “The power of a star is powerful, but what is it in the face of the dark matter than occupies most of the universe?”
“Blood Dragons, resonate!”
Thousands of Blood Dragons glowed blood-red, and they connected together into an incomparable gigantic blood dragon.
A massive amount of energy converged to become an unparalleled force, sweeping away the remaining Zerg.
There had never been a precedent of thousands of high-grade mechas working so well together.
However, Fang Yuan commanded the core and had control over all the Blood Dragons. These Blood Dragons were all from the same origin, and the power exerted through the formation was incredible, equivalent to the Dominator-grade!
“How dare you!”
The Seven Emotions Overmind had to show up now that the Zerg had suffered heavy casualties.
Countless ripples flickered in space, and the figure of the Seven Emotions Overmind appeared. It seemed smaller than it originally was, but it was still extremely powerful.
A horrifying light flew past in an instant.
This light beam was extremely thin, but Blood Dragons immediately split in half and exploded wherever it went.
“The Seven Emotions Overmind… also possesses Thearch-grade combat power now?”
Fu Hongxue’s eyes twitched at this scene. “Defense formation!”
The remaining Blood Dragons banded together, and the gigantic blood dragon coiled up, displaying the ultimate defense.
“It’s useless!”
The Seven Emotions Overmind roared, and giant faces with all sorts of expressions such as happiness, anger, sorrow, and so on emerged from its body.
These mask-like human faces smashed into the Blood Dragon and exploded continuously, shaking even space.
The gigantic blood dragon crumbled after merely one round of attacks.
The force of one thousand Blood Dragons could exert destructive power comparable to that of a Thearch-grade mecha, but it was not a true Thearch-grade mecha after all!
“Where is that lowly, shameless thief! Come out now!”
The Seven Emotions Overmind sent out an amazing psyche fluctuation, and under the horrified eyes of numerous humans and cosmic lifeforms, he shrank and turned into a human figure in a black robe.
He had a weird face, blond hair, and silver eyebrows, and his black robe had a lifelike face imprinted on it.
The intense aura of a Great Dao exuded directly.
“Ahh!”
“My eyes!”
“Warning! The target has strong radiation and suggestive powers! Do not look directly!”
…
With only one exchange of glances, numerous ordinary cultivators below level twenty-one vomited blood, and their eyes exploded, causing two black-red holes on their faces.
These were the lucky ones.
Those with even lower levels started howling madly and rushing to kill their colleagues around them. Strange changes took place in their bodies, as though they had become wild beasts.
“Yet another lifeform that we know nothing about… It seems to surpass Undead Immortal and perfect lich, and its mastery of energy is even more amazing…”
Venerable Three Star started in astonishment. “This Seven Emotions Overmind is definitely similar to Lin Meng, a higher lifeform!”
“Should I… address you as the Abominable Lord or the Seven Emotions Overmind?”
A blood rainbow appeared and arrived at the head of the gigantic blood dragon. The Blood Dragon Thearch looked akin to a sword immortal.
Fang Yuan’s voice boomed in the Mental Demon language.
“Unexpectedly… the small fly I missed at that time when I deprived a Dao path in the lower realms has grown to this extent today!” The Abominable Lord sighed.
In fact, if Fang Yuan were still in the lower realms, it would have meant nothing even if he were a Demon Master.
With the Abominable Lord’s current strength, as long as he forcibly broke through to the Dao Fruit realm, the attraction of his Great Dao would allow him to directly absorb the missing portion in the lower realms and make his Great Dao reach perfection.
But at this time, Fang Yuan had embarked on an entirely new Dream Master route and had even elevated that missing portion to the Creation Great Dao!
This made seizing it difficult.
Moreover, this had also caused a dispute between the two Great Daos. Without completely devouring the other, neither could break through into the Dao Fruit realm!
The Abominable Lord was now regarding Fang Yuan as his archenemy!
“Obviously, neither of us can give up the Dao of Dream Master…”
The fundamental Great Dao that Fang Yuan had chosen was the Dao of Creation, and the Dao of Dream Master clearly occupied an important part of the Abominable Lord’s Dao path.
Since neither party could abandon it, the only possibility left was to destroy the other party.
…
Various evil lights flashed through the Abominable Lord’s eyes. “You have not advanced to Netherheaven Demon God, but your recovery speed is not much less than mine. Moreover, you were able to ascend from a lower realms ant to this place within such a short time. There must be a huge secret on you!”
“So what if there is?” This was a logical deduction and irrefutable, and there was no reason for Fang Yuan to quibble over it.
“This secret is as good as mine!” The Abominable Lord sneered. “You built a Thearch-grade mecha and have all these vassals. Is this what you’re depending on? I will let you know that everything is in vain in front of a true Netherheaven!”
The next moment, a layer of mysterious light emitted from his body and illuminated half the battlefield.
Every mecha pilot’s face changed. “What happened? Why did our equipment malfunction?”
“Not good! The cosmological constant has changed!”
“How could the rules of physics change?”
…
Screams came. The same faults happened for the Gaias People’s mechas, and all kinds of accidents started appearing.
“This phenomenon… sharp needle?”
Venerable Three Star barely managed to prevent his mecha from failing. A lot was going through his mind.
This was a Netherheaven Demon God ability! It could affect a certain range of a Heavenly Dao and change a world!
If he were to reach the Dao Fruit realm, he could control the nomological rules of an entire universe in an instant, having the same authority and power as a Creator God!
Of course, the current effects on this battlefield were terrible enough.
“A Netherheaven Demon God’s Great Dao is nearly equivalent to a Heavenly Dao. It can be thought of as the dark side… And it can modify a world within a certain range…”
Fang Yuan watched this scene with great interest.
Evidently, the Abominable Lord had modified the rules of physics in this area.
Originally, gravity was a law, but the Abominable Lord could make water flow backward and flames freeze if he wanted to!
This was why the mechas based on the laws of physics suddenly plunged into a series of failures.
“Initiate adaptive modification now!”
However, these high-grade mechas were prepared for unpredictable environments in the universe. Therefore, they were merely at a loss at first before gradually restoring partial control.
What was worth mentioning was that a Netherheaven’s modification was an indiscriminate attack. The mechas of the Gaias People suffered similar problems and had no opportunity to attack the humans.
This area had now become a more advantageous domain to the Abominable Lord, similar to him being in his home field.
“Not a bad power of Netherheaven… Unfortunately, these aren’t our main bodies!”
Around Fang Yuan’s Blood Dragon Thearch, three Great Daos emerged to resist this mediocre influence. “If we met with our true bodies, I’d definitely not be your opponent. However, we broke the seal at about the same time, and our strengths are similar. I want to have a go at your strength!”
“Really?” The Abominable Lord gazed at Fang Yuan’s Great Daos, especially pausing on the Creation Great Dao, and a vast Dao path rushed out over his head.
This was a mighty river with a sense of rushed time, even giving Fang Yuan the illusion that he was facing a Heavenly Dao.
“Dark side of the Heavenly Dao!”
He murmured, and the Blood Dragon Thearch stepped forward with red lights flashing in its eyes.
Demon God power and Thearch-grade mecha merged perfectly at this very instant!
