Chapter 2856: Operation Rescue Ancestor Part 2: Let's Go~
The Star Devourers, having finally reached the end, ended up being swindled out of some money after all!
They had just managed to eliminate the side effects of the Strongman Pill, and now they finally had the face to go home and meet their subordinates for a meeting!
Thinking back on the experience of this Pinnacle War, it was truly a tale of bitter tears!
Having been swindled all the way, not only did they allow the Carbon Alliance to make a killing, but they almost got themselves killed here. After barely making it through, their homes suffered heavy losses!
Now there was truly a lot to deal with!
The most critical point was that the Sequence War had been fought completely in vain. Now, fighting over that so-called ranking, points had completely lost all meaning!
The Thousand Stars War had fully erupted with Xun Zu's promotion and the awakening of various families' Pseudo-Cosmos!
In the end, they had fought for nothing. Now everything depended purely on real strength!
No one knew what the Angel Race would think when they learned this news—the race that had emptied their foundations time and again fighting for rankings, and had been beaten to the brink of extinction...
The Star Devourers of the Matter Alliance had also withdrawn. No one knew where this chaotic Starry Sky situation would eventually lead!
Everything was unknown!
Jiangnan and the others naturally didn't stay long either. They still had to go back and make a series of arrangements to deal with the current chaos!
Although the Pinnacle War had been invalidated because of Xun Zu's breakthrough!
This battle could definitely be called a true Pinnacle War!
Its impact on the Starry Sky was anything but ordinary!
The entire Divine Burial Old Land had disappeared, transformed into Xun Zu's Eternal World. Even the Thousand Stars City, which had marked the glory of the Thousand Stars Era, had vanished from the star charts, becoming a small world exclusive to Wanxiang!
One had to know, people from various families were stationed in Thousand Stars City. Now they had all fallen into Wanxiang's hands!
But given the current situation, who would dare to demand anything from Wanxiang? Wasn't that just suicide?
The fact that the Silicon-Based Ancestral Machine had broken through to the Pseudo-Cosmos realm was also explosive news!
In this battle, the trump cards and top-tier combat power revealed by various families were almost too dazzling to take in!
And now the Starry Sky situation was tentatively divided into four major factions!
The Bose Clan led by Xun Zu, the Silicon-Based led by the Ancestral Machine, plus Wanxiang's Matter Alliance!
And finally, the Carbon Alliance. Although the Carbon Alliance didn't have the most top-tier combat power to hold the line, Jiang Fan and Jiangnan's performance in this battle was obvious to all, and they were incredibly fierce, alright?
Moreover, the Carbon Alliance still had Black God backing them up, making them absolutely a powerful faction!
...
The movements of the Eternal World were being watched by countless eyes across the Starry Sky!
Xun Zu actually drove the Eternal World back to the Bose Star Domain!
But the Bose Star Domain no longer existed. Not even ruins were left. Wanxiang had dismantled it quite thoroughly!
Seeing this scene, Xun Zu was so angry he coughed violently. Fortunately, only the home was gone; the racial foundation remained!
Most of the Bose Clan members were still alive!
Xun Zu immediately ordered the Bose Clan to relocate into the Eternal World to rebuild their homeland!
Using the Eternal World as an impenetrable fortress, they could attack when advantageous and defend when necessary!
As long as the Eternal World wasn't breached, the Bose Clan would remain undefeated. This was undoubtedly the most appropriate arrangement!
On the Silicon-Based side, the Guangke Star Domain had been placed under maximum alert, with even the Ultimate Star Weapon displayed openly!
To guard against any possible attack!
As for the Ancestral Machine's Thermal Core World, the interior was still chaotic and uninhabitable. No one knew if the Silicon Lord would move the main terminal into the Thermal Core!
Where the main terminal was now hidden remained a mystery!
The Matter Alliance had also begun to act. Wanxiang's Starlight Shield had not been removed but remained constantly activated!
The damaged members of the Matter Alliance had started rebuilding their home star domains. After holding a war council, they seemed to have reached some kind of consensus!
They began transferring the races' core planets into Wanxiang's small world to ensure core safety and the continuation of civilization!
It was the same approach as the Carbon Alliance's Dimensional Star City. Moreover, with an existence like Wanxiang holding them down, they had no right to refuse!
Such actions would allow Wanxiang's small world to evolve further and achieve higher completion!
...
As for the Carbon Alliance, the dark matter tides covering the home star domains of over two thousand member races showed no signs of receding!
Jiangnan didn't let Noah and the others take them back either!
These things could be reused. When not needed, they could be taken back; when needed, they could be deployed again!
It was just that the longer they were released, the greater the loss!
Until the next course of action was determined, it was better to use the dark matter tides for protection!
But these things could only block Star Devourers. They were completely useless against Pseudo-Cosmos!
Moreover, the Silicon-Based's 2D Rubik's Cube also had a certain suppressive effect on dark matter tides!
But Jiangnan wasn't afraid now. Even if the Silicon-Based really used the 2D Rubik's Cube to two-dimensionalize the home star domains covered by the dark matter tides, Jiangnan could use Dimension Restoration to return them to normal!
Not just matter and energy—even if lives were unfolded into 2D, Jiangnan could retrieve all their lost energy information states through Dimension Restoration and bring them back to 3D!
The Minghe Star Domain was no longer afraid of being messed with!
On the way back to the Dimensional Star City, Jiangnan and the others began to discuss!
The Star Devourers of the Carbon Alliance looked somewhat gloomy!
Noah scratched his head, frowning deeply:
(｡･ˇ_ˇ･)"Although we've now used all our strength to check Xun Zu, preventing him from using absolute crushing force..."
"The threat hasn't been resolved yet. The most critical thing is that the threat doesn't just come from Xun Zu!"
Manti looked troubled:
(･ˇ～ˇ･｡)"Whether it's Wanxiang or the Ancestral Machine, both pose the most direct threat to the Carbon Alliance. After all, they are Pseudo-Cosmos realm!"
"They're on a completely different power level from Star Devourers. One hand could beat a group of Star Devourers!"
"Before, we could fight the enemy together because of Xun Zu. Now that Xun Zu is checked, they could turn around and strike at our Carbon Alliance for resources!"
"After all, in terms of resource holdings, from any perspective, the Carbon Alliance is a tantalizing piece of fat..."
The Carbon Alliance indeed had Jiangnan and Jiang Fan. Their troublesome nature was well-known, their reputation widespread!
But which family wasn't troublesome?
No matter how strong the two were, they would still struggle against Pseudo-Cosmos, as they involved the realm of rules!
Although they had Black God, 3D Starry Sky wasn't His territory after all!
In 3D Starry Sky, the power that could be unleashed through another's body was limited, and it would also be rejected and suppressed by the rules!
Against Pseudo-Cosmos, there was no advantage!
Yuan Yi looked hopeful:
꒰⸝⸝⁰̷̴一⁰̷̴⸝⸝꒱"Do the two of you have a chance against Pseudo-Cosmos?"
Jiangnan didn't brag either, speaking bluntly: "Among Star Devourers, almost no one can match me. But my attacks don't reach the level of rules, so I can't deal any substantial damage to Pseudo-Cosmos!"
"You saw when I fought Xun Zu just now. Even when I went all out, I was just scratching the surface!"
"But if I fight a Pseudo-Cosmos, as long as I'm not enveloped in their small world, they can't destroy me!"
Jiang Fan was also direct: "Pseudo-Cosmos... not easy to deal with. Not easy to kill..."
Everyone shuddered. Whoa!
What did "not easy to kill" mean? That meant there was still a possibility of killing them?
Yang Jian rubbed his brow: "The most troublesome thing now is that the Carbon Alliance still lacks top-tier combat power. The two of them are strong, but not strong enough!"
"In 3D Starry Sky, Black God's power can't be fully unleashed!"
"Moreover, in the short term, Jiang Fan and Jiangnan's strength won't see any further breakthroughs!"
Jiangnan smiled bitterly. Indeed!
From Transcendent to Star Devourer, Jiangnan had taken so long to qualitatively change, and had picked up various opportunities along the way!
As for Star Devourer-level cultivation, it was still a massive accumulation of energy, on a scale unimaginably huge!
Just look at Yuan Yi and Noah!
For Jiangnan, there was still a considerable distance to touch the threshold of the Cosmos realm!
How could creating a world be so easy?
Relying on Jiangnan to get another power boost wasn't realistic!
Jiang Fan didn't say anything...
Wang Youzhi then spoke up:
(๑･ˇ◠ˇ･)"Let's set aside the matter of those two Pseudo-Cosmos for now. Xun Zu is the most urgent problem!"
"The Divine Burial Shackles won't hold out long. At best three to five years, at worst a dozen or so years. He'll refine and absorb them sooner or later!"
"Once the Eternal World's completion improves, Xun Zu will surpass Qing Jie. If we can't stop him, everything will be in vain!"
"Maybe even before he fully refines the Divine Burial, the power he can wield will be enough to kill everyone!"
Everyone's faces darkened!
Good grief? He'd break free from the shackles that soon?
That wasn't holding out long at all!
Three to five years? What could be done in that time?
A dozen years wasn't enough either, dammit!
That is, everyone had to find a way to kill Xun Zu before he broke free from the shackles!
Otherwise, everyone would die!
Jiangnan propped his chin in deep thought.
Three to five years? Even for himself, there was no guarantee of breaking through to Cosmos in such a short time!
That was still something without any prospect!
But Jiangnan grinned slyly:
(͡°̫͡°)✧"But everyone doesn't need to worry. If things go smoothly, Xun Zu could be dead by tomorrow!"
Everyone was stunned. Dead by tomorrow?
What method? That fast?
Jiangnan's eyes held a hint of laughter, his gaze falling on Jiang Fan!
"Last time, Operation Rescue Ancestor failed. We rescued nothing!"
"Now that I'm a Star Devourer, my strength is not what it used to be. Even the Absolute Final Black Hole, I dare to try!"
"As long as we can get Brother Fan's main body out, it won't be a problem to kill Xun Zu. It also solves the Carbon Alliance's lack of top-tier combat power!"
"Killing many birds with one stone!"
At this moment, everyone realized a problem!
Damn, the Jiang Fan who had been fighting Xun Zu all along, even serving as the main damage dealer, was just a Will Clone!
If the main body came out...
Swoosh!
Maybe the Eternal World really could be blown up!
Jiang Fan shifted his gaze: (≖◠≖〃)"It's worth a try. Once the main body comes out, the first one I'll slay is Xun Zu!"
Jiangnan grinned: "Absolute Final Black Hole! Let's go~"
