# Chapter 1997: This Moment! We Shine in the Starry Sky

At this moment, the expressions of all the Bose race members had sunk to an extreme low—the matter had been completely exposed!

This was no longer just a secret operation; it was like being caught in the act, and they had even summoned the myriad races of the starry sky to witness it collectively!

The face of the Bose race had been ripped off and trampled into the ground, with saliva spat upon it for good measure!

The only path left for the Bose race now was to seize Blue Star with thunderous force, then find a way to make amends afterward!

To pick their dignity back up off the ground!

Jinglie was furious: "You think this will let you win? That there's a way out? Don't be delusional. You're nothing but pawns being manipulated!"

"Expendables pushed to the front to die. No matter how the situation changes, humanity's fate was sealed from the very beginning!"

"Nobody cares about the life or death of mere ants. Pointless struggles will only tear away the last shred of your dignity!"

"Every single Bose body is immensely powerful. One of us is worth ten of you. And now we have an army of ten thousand! A hundred times your number!"

"How can you possibly win? What gives you the right to win?"

Linya drew her short blade, gripping it tightly in her hand. Killing intent surged in her eyes as she looked down from above and declared!

"I only want to ask—how many of you are willing to die?"

"And how many must die before you face reality and kneel at the feet of my Bose race?"

"If you humans don't know humility, we'd be happy to teach you!"

At this moment, over a hundred Blue Star powerhouses in the starry sky wore grim expressions. The battlefield was filled with silence.

Though each of them held firm conviction in their hearts and possessed the courage to die for Blue Star!

But the chasm-like gap between the two sides was an undeniable truth they had to face.

Ten thousand Bose bodies, all from the upper echelon. Even Karl alone had been so difficult to deal with!

Now there were this many!

And the two leaders, Jinglie and Linya, each possessed at least the strength of a Planet Destroyer!

How could they possibly win? Could they really survive this?

Would it mean anything to stake their lives here and die a heroic death?

Could it change the outcome?

Though no one stepped back, this was the worry gnawing at everyone's heart!

We can die for Blue Star, but we don't want to die in vain!

Even the Blue Star citizens watching the live broadcast fell into silence!

Jiang Nan gripped his Godslayer Blade, slowly straightening his spine and puffing out his chest!

Wildfire seemed to burn in his eyes, and his determined voice echoed through the starry sky!

"My fellow countrymen! Lift your chests high! Humanity, since the dawn of spiritual energy revival over three thousand years ago, has never bowed its head to any existence!"

"We've walked this path! Passing the torch from generation to generation! We've created so many miracles. Why should this time be any different?"

"The Bose race may be strong! But I ask you one thing—have we humans ever been defeated?"

At this moment, everyone gazed at Jiang Nan's back, light flickering in their eyes!

Baikou's pretty face flushed red, and she couldn't help but shout loudly!

"Humanity has experienced four spiritual energy revivals and four God-Slaying wars! Our predecessors were never defeated!"

"We haven't lost either!"

Humanity had simply never won—but they had certainly never been defeated!

Jiang Fan was like this, Xiao Di like this, Ji Yu like this! And now, Jiang Nan was the same!

Jiang Nan's words rang out with resounding conviction!

"There are always humans who dare to face the divine radiance! Now, the opportunity we've yearned for over three thousand years lies before us—why would we let it go?"

"Since someone must win this battle, why can't it be us humans?"

"Are Bose bodies truly invincible? Can gods trample on life as they please?"

"In my journey so far, I've killed more than ten Bose bodies with my own hands. If you don't believe me, ask this blade!"

As he spoke, his Godslayer Blade pointed directly at the Bose army. The crystal-clear blade was already covered with carved six-pointed stars!

Killing intent blazed in Jiang Nan's eyes!

"Goddamn gods are all villains! How dare they disrupt our human realm! Even if it's a god, as long as it has a health bar, I'll kill it for you to see!"

With Jiang Nan's furious roar, the faces of Odin, Xiao Chuihuo, Baldr, Bati, and the others behind him flushed red with emotion!

Over a hundred Blue Star powerhouses raised their Godslayer weapons high, their battle cries echoing through the starry sky!

Jinglie's forehead veins bulged. The momentum he had just suppressed was reignited by Jiang Nan's words!

Jiang Nan's aura surged even higher. His Blood Incineration had reached its peak, and what surged within his chest was boiling hot blood!

"What lies behind us?"

Everyone shouted in unison!

"Blue Star!"

Jiang Nan was now like a fully drawn bow, radiating brilliant glazed light!

"This battle is the focus of all eyes! For Blue Star! For the spirits of our predecessors! For our friends and family! For humanity's future!"

"Let us reach our peak in this battle and shine with utmost brilliance! No matter the outcome, we will be remembered by the starry sky, our names eternal!"

"We are bugs that cannot be crushed! We must win!"

"Humanity! Born free!"

As he spoke, Jiang Nan raised his Godslayer Blade high, killing intent bursting forth, and charged out like an arrow released from a bow!

Heading straight for the Bose army!

"Kill!"

"Let humanity shine in the starry sky!"

His impassioned words echoed as Jiang Nan was the first to charge at the Bose army!

If humanity was a spear, then Jiang Nan was undoubtedly the bloodstained spearhead charging at the front!

And the pent-up emotions in Odin, Xiao Chuihuo, and the others finally erupted at this moment!

They roared and charged out behind Jiang Nan!

Jinglie raised his Holy Judgment greatsword high, also roaring!

"Kill them all! Leave none alive! Let humanity know what it means to be a Starry Sky Overlord!"

With Jinglie's command, the full ten thousand Bose bodies charged toward the humans as well!

Both sides charged, like two needles clashing point to point. Just as Jiang Nan said, no matter the final outcome!

This battle would surely be etched into the memory of the starry sky!

Beneath the starry sky, watching the two forces about to clash in bloody combat, the hearts of the myriad races tightened as well!

Say what you will, but humans were truly brave—a hundred humans daring to charge against ten thousand Bose bodies!

And at this moment, countless slave races beneath the starry sky watched the humans fighting with all their might for their race, feeling a deep resonance!

We too once fought for our own races. But we lost everything.

Now, watching humans give their all to fight for their race, inexplicably, their noses tingled with emotion.

Some even found themselves hoping that humanity would create a miracle and win!

Jinglie wasted no time. With a high-dimensional strike, he aimed directly at Jiang Nan!

Eliminate this troublemaker first, and the rest would be easier!

But as someone who had escaped from under Xing Luo's grasp, how could Jiang Nan fall for such a trick?

Olivia had been watching out for him all along!

A spatial wormhole opened instantly, bypassing Jinglie's high-dimensional strike in the blink of an eye!

Under the impact of a warp bubble, he smashed through three Bose bodies in one go!

Arriving beside the Tianjing-class supply ship, the defensive barrier didn't even slow Jiang Nan down!

Using his small stool to smash through, he shot directly into the ship's hull with a warp bubble!

Then burst out from the other side!

Fighting against overwhelming numbers, Jiang Nan's plan for the battle wasn't a head-on confrontation!

The most troublesome were undoubtedly the two leaders, Jinglie and Linya!

Jiang Nan didn't intend to get tangled up with them for long. Instead, he had Xiao Chuihuo, Odin, Baldr, and several other powerful Transcendents do their utmost to hold back the strongest combatants of the Bose army!

Keeping them too occupied to intervene!

Meanwhile, Jiang Nan would use his own abilities to lead everyone in quickly eliminating the remaining Bose bodies!

After all, with Jiang Nan's abilities, dealing with Bose bodies that didn't have domains was a massacre!

This way, he could quickly clear the ranks, reducing the number of Bose bodies!

Leaving only the fierce ones, those with domains, to be dealt with collectively at the end!

Only with such tactics was there a chance of victory!

Of course, the top priority was to destroy the war fortress the Bose bodies had brought, scatter their forces, and kill them separately!

With the assistance of the Eye of the Starry Sky, all the Blue Star powerhouses were linked in consciousness. Any tactical plans or intentions could be understood by everyone in an instant!

With Yang Jian's tactical command, it was almost as if all the Blue Star powerhouses were a single entity!

At this moment, Odin was completely pumped up by Jiang Nan's impassioned speech!

He transformed into light form, roaring as he charged straight into the middle of the Bose army!

"Ahhh! Let humanity shine in the starry sky!"

"Solar Domain Expansion! True • Aurora Supernova Burst!"

In that instant, Odin became light itself. An incomparable radiance bloomed in the midst of the Bose army!

Odin released all the light from the three suns he had absorbed—every last bit of it!

And not just ordinary release—he transformed it all into the light of aurora, radiating it outward!

Quantum-state attacks could indeed damage Bose bodies!

No one expected Odin to go all-out right from the start!

Many Bose bodies that hadn't ascended dimensions or lacked domains were instantly dissolved into nothingness by the aurora light!

Wasn't the goal to let humanity shine in the starry sky?

Today, I'll show all the myriad races of the starry sky just how brightly I can shine!

At this moment, only one color remained in the starry sky—an unparalleled brilliant white!

Even Blue Star turned pure white, with nothing visible at all!

Even the live broadcast from Thousand Stars City went white screen because of Odin's brilliance!

After all, this was the total light emitted by three entire stars!

Starting with a supernova—that was the bare minimum respect to show an enemy, right?

Jiang Nan had just burst out of the starship and was heading toward the war fortress when his eyes were instantly blinded!

"Holy crap! Little bro, do you have to be this blinding?"

And just as Odin's Aurora Supernova reached its peak, an even more intense white light erupted from within the starship!

The antimatter star explosion bomb detonated from inside the ship!

Terrifying energy waves spread in all directions, and the Tianjing-class warp starship was blown to smithereens!

Two devastating attacks erupted simultaneously on the battlefield, complementing each other!

Right from the opening of the battle, the fight had already reached a white-hot state!
