# Chapter 2332: Witness the Birth of the Fifth Calamity
It could be said that all the Star Devourers present had used every method they could, yet still they could not stop the black hole's advance!
They were at a stalemate with each other!
With eight Star Devourers on site, Jiangnan had still managed to wreck the Northern Crown Star Capital like this!
Such news could never be hidden; the entire starry sky was watching!
The Sacred Law Council's face had been given another hard slap by Jiangnan!
And they couldn't even slap back!
Not only could they not deal with Jiangnan, but all the life-bearing planets of the human faction had retreated into the Dimensional Gap!
They had no outlet to vent their anger!
At this moment, the Sacred Law Council felt as if they were being roasted over a fire!
Di Chou's eyes blazed with fury:
(ꐦ▼皿▼) "Negotiate? How do you want to negotiate? At this point, do you think there's any room for us to turn back?"
Qian Benying tossed her head arrogantly:
(❀ˇ~ˇ) "Indeed! But if you don't want to talk, we can't guarantee things won't get worse!"
"So, do you want to hear my other chips besides stopping the dimensional war and halting dimensional star navigation?"
Yu Gen's expression was ice-cold: "Speak!"
Qian Benying was excited inside—Boss Nan truly foresaw everything. Once the Star Devourers realized they couldn't crack the Black Hole Devouring Star, they became willing to listen!
Thinking of what Jiangnan had told her earlier, Qian Benying cleared her throat twice and raised a finger:
☝(∗͡°̫͡°) "As you can all see now! I'm not bragging! Jiangnan has completely mastered the power of the Black Hole Devouring Star! And he can maintain it for a long time—there's no so-called release limit!"
"He can even move at high speed in black hole form, teleport. Maybe when Jiangnan was at Dao Heaven rank, he couldn't skillfully control the Black Hole Devouring Star, but now he's Transcendent! Everything is different!"
Chen Mu's face was ugly. Indeed! This Black Hole Devouring Star was far more ferocious than when Jiangnan used it in Thousand Stars City!
Pang Badi quietly said to Yakeli:
(ノ)◔3◔ิ) "Generally speaking, when we Blue Star people say 'I'm not bragging,' we're actually bragging. Don't believe it, ah~"
Yakeli covered his face. There was such a saying?
Chong Qianjin squinted: "So what? Are we blind? Can't we see for ourselves?"
Spokesperson Ying curled her lip: (ꐦ°᷄◡°᷅) "Who knows if those two big eyes of yours are just for blowing air? Whether you're blind or not, don't ask me—how would I know?"
Clearly, Qian Benying was getting into the groove.
Chong Qianjin was furious: (งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "You son of a..."
But Qian Benying completely ignored her and enunciated word by word: "So what? I'll tell you so what!"
"This means that Jiangnan has the ability to release Black Hole Devouring Star at any time, at any location in the starry sky, against anyone!"
"No matter how strong the opponent is! As long as they are within the event horizon when it's released, they will die, with no way to resist!"
"Jiangnan can release it in Northern Crown Star Capital! Or in Thousand Stars City! Or on the Silicon-based Terminal Database! Or in any race's home star domain!"
"And you! Have no way to stop it! No way to resist! That is the reality you face!"
As these words fell, the starry sky was dead silent. Even Tiezu's mechanical face changed color!
All the Star Devourers present felt the same!
They understood that if they couldn't crack the Black Hole Devouring Star, this was the situation they would face!
Jiangnan could reach any corner of the starry sky through the Dimensional Gap and release Black Hole Devouring Star!
He could raze the home star domains of all races! Eight Star Devourers working together couldn't break the black hole—how could they stop him?
Was Jiangnan going to threaten the entire Sacred Law Council single-handedly?
Yu Gen snorted coldly: (¬_¬◟) "You think this alone can intimidate us? How do you think we rose to our positions?"
"If Jiangnan dares to show himself in three-dimensional space, he will die the moment he appears!"
Qian Benying laughed:
(⌒ꇴ⌒❀) "Old bastard, please use the tumor on your neck to think carefully!"
"Do you think that Jiangnan, who has fought the Sacred Law Council to this day, survived, and grown to this level, would capsize over something like this?"
Yu Gen's eyes widened: (▼ヘ▼◟) "Who are you calling an old bastard? What tumor?"
Everyone stared blankly at Qian Benying. Was she ad-libbing?
Did Jiangnan really tell her to say that?
Qian Benying rolled her eyes:
(꒪ั~꒪ั❀) "Can't figure out the problem, and can't understand human language either? Who am I calling? You! Ah, right—Jiangnan told me to say it like that. I'm just the spokesperson! Spokesperson!"
Yu Gen ground his teeth on his walking stick blade. Bullshit!
Qian Benying raised a second finger: "Even setting aside the Black Hole Devouring Star! At Transcendent rank, Jiangnan has mastered the skill of Dimensional Reduction Strike! That fat ball has seen it too!"
"That means Jiangnan can appear on any planet through the Dimensional Gap! As long as the Two-Dimensional Plane he releases touches the planet, the entire planet, along with all life on it, will be Two-Dimensionalized, expanded, turned into a photograph!"
"The process of Two-Dimensionalization cannot be stopped even by a Star Devourer! If released in an area dense with planets, it could even trigger a chain reaction!"
"Don't think the Bose Race's Bose Star can avoid it—unless you keep your planet in a higher dimension, as long as it's in three dimensions and touches a Two-Dimensional Fragment, it will be Two-Dimensionalized!"
"And the Silicon-based Terminal Database doesn't seem to have the ability to resist Two-Dimensionalization either, does it?"
At this moment, the expressions of the Star Devourers grew even uglier!
They all knew how troublesome the Two-Dimensional Fragments of Tiantang Zhijing were. The reason they weren't deemed a threat was that once the fragments left the range of Tiantang Zhijing, they disappeared!
Since they couldn't be taken out, they couldn't be made into weapons, so the threat was minimal!
But Jiangnan had actually mastered the skill of Dimensional Reduction Strike! This brat now had the ability to drop Two-Dimensional Planes onto any planet!
He could destroy a planet without hardly any effort!
And with the Dimensional Gap as his backing, how could they deal with him?
That little bastard! Before they could even keep an eye on him, he had grown to this level!
This was a threat to the Sacred Law Council!
Qian Benying crossed her arms and said flatly: "I think you all should understand now! The third chip of humanity is very simple—it is Jiangnan himself!"
"I heard that large-scale destruction that is artificially uncontrollable and cannot be stopped even by Star Devourers is collectively called a Starry Sky Calamity!"
"Then I think! Jiangnan, who has been pushed to the brink by the Sacred Law Council with no way out, already qualifies to be defined as a Starry Sky Calamity, right?"
"After the four calamities like the Wuxian Torrent and Dark Matter Tide, the newly promoted Fifth Starry Sky Calamity! Black Hole Devouring Star!"
As these words were spoken, the entire starry sky was in an uproar!
Not only were the stranded personnel in the Northern Crown startled, but also the myriad races watching the battle through the Galactic Network were shocked!
The Fifth Calamity!
Thinking about it this way, Transcendent-rank Jiangnan's abilities definitely qualified for this title!
They never thought they would witness the birth of the Fifth Calamity with their own eyes!
And the main body of the Fifth Calamity was actually a human?
Yu Gen's expression was extremely ugly, but looking at the red-glowing Jiangblackhole still spinning in its triple rotation, he felt a nameless powerlessness!
They really couldn't destroy it, dammit!
Qian Benying said smugly: (︶.̮︶❀) "However! This Fifth Calamity has a will! It is artificially controllable! It can appear in any corner of the starry sky to cause destruction and slaughter!"
"And it will only get stronger! Am I right?"
"If there is no place for Jiangnan in this starry sky, then why should Jiangnan continue to love this starry sky?"
"Jiangnan doesn't need a Thousand Stars Era without his position! If that is truly the case, then Jiangnan is willing to ignite the flames of war everywhere in the starry sky, kindle the smoke of battle, become the demon that slaughters life, and dye the starry sky red with blood!"
"Wherever he stands, it is a hell!"
At this moment, even the Bully Gang members felt goosebumps rising from their spines straight to their scalps!
So damn domineering!
No place for me? Then I'll fight for it!
Won't give it? Then I'll overturn the entire starry sky!
What kind of boldness was this?
The reason Jiangnan chose to demonstrate his power here was to carve out a place for himself in this era and to further force the Sacred Law Council to compromise!
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!
Di Chou looked at the Jiangblackhole, his eyes filled with extreme anger!
If the Sacred Law Council backed down now, they would truly lose the initiative. Once would lead to a second time!
How could they back down? So many eyes were watching!
But Noah and Gu Ruide both twitched their mouths, also feeling Jiangnan's terror!
Jiangnan was the kind of person who, even if given half a chance, would seize it and climb up!
Rational yet insane!
Yu Gen said flatly: "What do you want? Speak!"
Di Chou urged: "Uncle Gen! At this time..."
"Don't rush! Let her finish!"
Qian Benying's eyes sparkled. He was conceding?
(❀ᵒ̴̶̷◠ᵒ̴̶̷) "As everyone knows, Jiangnan is a peace-loving person. Unless pushed to the brink with no other choice, he doesn't want to walk this path!"
"From beginning to end, what Jiangnan has fought for is nothing but his own legitimate rights and interests!"
Chen Mu's mouth twitched: (≖_≖) "Don't bullshit, okay? Just state the terms directly!"
What the hell "Jiangnan loves peace"? He had already demolished two cities, become the Fifth Calamity, and killed who knows how many—he loves peace?
I spit!
Qian Benying looked awkward and then continued:
(•́ㅂ•̀٥) "What Jiangnan wants is very simple! First, the mines belong to whoever they belong to! Those 241 mining districts are assets under Chong Feiyu's name!"
"Now that Chong Feiyu has joined humanity as a human Star Devourer, her mining districts naturally belong to humanity. This should be a matter of course! Don't use the 'bottom of the sequence not qualified to possess rich mining areas' to argue!"
"How humanity mines and uses them is humanity's own business! Whether it's the Star Mine Bureau or the Sacred Law Council, they must not interfere!"
As soon as this condition was raised, Chong Qianjin grew anxious. If so, the Insect Race would be left with only 67 rich mining districts? How could that possibly be enough?
"Nonsense! How can you..."
Before she could finish, Yu Gen glared her into silence. Chong Qianjin could only shut up.
"Continue!"
Qian Benying said flatly: "From beginning to end! What humanity wants is nothing more than the rights it deserves as a Starry Sky Sequence!"
"From now on, the Sacred Law Council must not implement any form of suppression against humanity! If it happens, don't blame the calamity for being ruthless!"
Yu Gen's expression didn't change: "Anything else?"
Qian Benying said a bit sheepishly:
(๑◔₃◔ิ๑) "Also, let Jiangnan walk freely under the starry sky. As for the titles of Starry Sky Fugitive and number one on the wanted list, it doesn't matter if they're canceled or not—they're quite cool. Hehe~"
"Anyone who isn't afraid of death and wants to cause trouble can come as they please! But there's one thing: there are rules in many places in the starry sky that prohibit fighting, but Jiangnan is popular and has many troubles. Wherever he goes, there are clueless people looking for trouble!"
"Although Jiangnan loves peace, he can't just let himself be slaughtered. He has a bad temper. If he gets emotional and accidentally releases a Black Hole Devouring Star or Dimensional Reduction Strike and hurts some flowers and plants, that wouldn't be good~"
"So, for the sustainable development of the Thousand Stars Era and the bright future of the starry sky, I hope you can issue a full star domain special combat permit for Jiangnan! That's not too much, is it?"
"Head South and lose your life! Know South and retreat, that's right! Peace in the starry sky our fight! Family happiness day and night!"
After speaking, even Qian Benying couldn't help blushing!
(ノ)﹏(ヾ) Mm~
How was this not too much? Even she thought it was a bit too much!
But that was Jiangnan's original words, so she had to brazenly ask!
Wu Liang, Yakeli, and the others all burst out laughing. What the hell was a combat permit?
Was there really such a thing as a combat permit?
Only Boss Nan could think of asking for a combat permit!
It was absolutely crazy! Absolutely insane!
Di Chou's face turned green. Wasn't this a naked threat?
If they really issued a full star domain combat permit for Jiangnan, that bastard would be soaring to the heavens! Would the Sacred Law Council's face still be intact?
"This... this is simply going too far! Uncle Gen?"
Yu Gen listened calmly to all the conditions Qian Benying had stated.
(≖_≖◟) "Are you done? Then listen carefully! Not a single one of the conditions Jiangnan proposed will be accepted by the Sacred Law Council!"
Qian Benying's expression froze:
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇) ???
Then why the hell did you let me say all that? You old bastard!
Jiangblackhole: ???
Wait, do you really think I was negotiating with you?
Do you really think I accumulated all that accretion disk for nothing?
