# Chapter 2884: Dead End!

Silicon truly lives up to its reputation as the sneaky one!

Besides the Primordial Mech, they had actually hidden another Giant God Soldier, and one modified from Lucifer at that!

No wonder after Lucifer went to the Milky Way Star Domain for revenge, got beaten up, and disappeared when on the verge of death!

It seemed he was fished out by Silicon and transformed into a Giant God Soldier, allowing them to snag a huge bargain!

The Angel Race really got the short end of the stick—their only remaining Star Devourer was taken and mechanically modified, squeezed dry of his last bit of value!

And now Jiang Fan had also surfaced, brutally beating up Silicon. His strength was even greater than before!

Like Jiangnan, he could wield Realm Source Energy, and his formidable power allowed him to go head-to-head with a Pseudo-Cosmos, even capable of damaging them with some effort!

With two such fierce fighters, the Carbon Alliance was truly formidable. Humanity had really risen!

But with such a massive move by the Carbon Alliance, what exactly were they planning?

Were they looking to start a war with the entire starry sky?

At this point, the myriad races of the starry sky had no idea that Jiang Fan had already left the Carbon Alliance to go solo.

---

Before the home star domain of the Metal Clan, the All-Starry-Sky Tour of the Kuangkang Beating Group had made its way here!

Jiangnan was leading the group in brutally beating up Liutie, racking up grievance points!

Jiangnan was naturally aware of the turmoil over at Silicon. Now that Brother Fan had disappeared, had he started making his move too?

The expression on Jiangnan's face was indescribably complicated, but he just struck even harder!

He also showed no sign of stopping the tour of beatings.

Jiang Fan's goal was clear: in a short time, to drag over half of the universe's matter into the Final Star Domain to feed the Final Black Hole. Doing it all by himself was impossible!

The Carbon Alliance couldn't help Jiang Fan either. Letting the Final Black Hole's jets flow would be an apocalypse, destroying themselves as well!

So to achieve this goal, Jiang Fan needed help, assistance!

Silicon was a very good helper!

And once Jiang Fan made a move, it meant he was already confident he could take down Silicon!

It seemed Silicon was truly about to face a change of regime!

Yang Jian's voice echoed in Jiangnan's mind.

"What about Jiang Fan? Should we go stop him?"

Jiangnan shook his head. "We need to stop him, but not now. And with my current strength, I can't stop Brother Fan either."

"Let him do what he wants... At this stage, regardless of the outcome, Jiang Fan moving against Silicon benefits the Carbon Alliance."

"Even if Brother Fan didn't make a move, after I finish pounding the Matter Alliance, I would have gone to pound Silicon too. This saves me the trouble."

"What's most important right now is the tour of beatings. It concerns the continued existence of reality. That's the priority."

If this reality collapsed, then everything would be meaningless.

Jiangnan was very clear about what he needed to do most right now.

The most troublesome issue was that Jiang Fan had already seen the future. The possible future had been fixed, and everything was happening according to plan.

Jiangnan didn't know where this future would ultimately lead, or if it could be changed.

Even faced with such a situation, Jiangnan felt utterly powerless.

Yang Jian took a deep breath. "Alright... I understand."

Jiangnan continued, "Silicon might lash out in its death throes, launching an all-out attack on the Carbon Alliance. Get our people ready for defense."

"I'm also watching closely. If Silicon can't produce a stronger trump card than the Primordial Mech, then they won't cause any more waves."

"That broken Cross Holy Wing Machine or Ultimate Star Weapon—they're not qualified."

With Jiangnan's words, Yang Jian felt a bit more at ease.

But under the current situation, Silicon was going to have a hard time surviving this wave.

What would the future look like?

Perhaps only Jiang Fan knew.

At the site of the original Bose Star Domain, where the Eternal World was located!

Inside the Eternal World, it was still filled with pitch-black abyss-like cracks. The embers of Shen Zang drifted out from the cracks, ceaselessly poisoning the world!

The Bose Race had already rebuilt within the Eternal World, and now all the Bose clansmen lived there.

At this moment, Xun Zu stood at the center of the world, starlight reflected in his eyes as he gazed at something unknown.

Dark Shen Zang embers still coiled around his body, and he coughed lightly from time to time.

But his aura was even stronger than before.

Clearly, Xun Zu had already refined a portion of the Shen Zang to enhance himself.

He had regained some absolute control over the Eternal World, and only three months had passed!

Just then, Qian Li's figure materialized, and he cupped his fists. "Lord Xun Zu, the Silicon Lord has sent a distress signal, inviting you to join him in opposing Jiang Fan. Should we respond?"

But Xun Zu sneered. "Respond? Why respond? Pretend we didn't see it."

Qian Li was taken aback. "Not help? If we could take the opportunity to eliminate him, the Carbon Alliance would lose a major general. That would benefit us too."

Xun Zu squinted. "Eliminate Jiang Fan? Hah, it's highly unlikely to completely wipe out Jiang Fan in the Xing Kong World, unless it's within my Eternal World."

"If I go, I'll probably just be running around for nothing. Now he thinks to ask me for help? When they surrounded me back then, the Primordial Mech showed no mercy."

Qian Li swallowed. "But... if Jiang Fan takes down Silicon like this, and adds Jiangnan to the mix, if the two of them join forces against us, the situation could get dangerous."

Xun Zu raised an eyebrow. "Dangerous? What danger? Although I'm plagued by Shen Zang, I'm still a Cosmos. Those Pseudo-Cosmos can't compare to me."

"The Eternal World has devoured the old lands of Shen Zang and the Chuangjie Daxu. Its foundation far exceeds those shabby world embryos."

"Even if Jiangnan and Jiang Fan have that Realm Source Energy, as long as I sit in the Eternal World, they have no chance of breaking through the world barrier."

"Their immature rules simply cannot compare to my complete world rules. Trying to shake me? That's nothing but a pipe dream."

Qian Li breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good... but their growth rate is truly astonishing. We must guard against them."

Xun Zu said coldly, "No matter how fast they grow, it's not as fast as I can refine the Shen Zang. It won't exceed the speed at which I recover my strength."

"What I need to do most right now is refine the Shen Zang. As long as I break the shackles of Shen Zang, all thorns become illusions."

"It won't take too long. But that Realm Source Energy is really mouthwatering. I wonder where they got it."

"If I could obtain it, the Eternal World would grow even faster, with a higher ceiling. Breaking the Shen Zang shackles would be within reach. What a pity... what a pity..."

Qian Li also let out a long sigh.

If it were before, he could still tussle with Jiangnan and the others.

But now, Jiangnan could beat down Wanxiang, and Jiang Fan could contend with the Primordial Mech.

He probably no longer even qualified to fight them.

Xun Zu said, "Realm Source Energy is something even higher than Realm Force. Since I can't get Realm Source Energy, Realm Force will also speed up my refinement of Shen Zang."

"How is the preparation for the next batch of slave sacrifices?"

Qian Li bowed his head. "It's already being prepared. The grades of this batch are quite good. They should provide you with a considerable amount of Realm Force."

Xun Zu nodded calmly. "Good."

As long as a being exists in the Xing Kong World, they have Realm Force within them.

The Eternal World, having absorbed the Chuangjie Daxu, naturally had the ability to absorb Realm Force.

Extra Realm Force injection would accelerate Xun Zu's refinement of the Shen Zang.

Now, to break the Shen Zang shackles, Xun Zu had begun to stop at nothing.

Everything was for the sake of recovering his strength and ruling the world as soon as possible.

In the Lengguang Star Domain, the Thousand Illusion Mountain Sea!

A fierce explosion came from within, tearing apart all illusions with its tremendous power, leaving nothing behind.

Jiang Fan's figure emerged from the flames, stars twinkling around him like an omnipotent god.

But Jiang Fan did not linger here for long. His gaze turned toward the northern Youhai Star Domain, and he was about to step in that direction.

The Primordial Mech's figure also appeared in the Lengguang Star Domain. Seeing Jiang Fan about to leave, its mentality was on the verge of collapsing.

This was already the thirteenth backup terminal that had been destroyed!

Jiang Fan had traversed various forbidden zones in the starry sky, wildly dismantling Silicon's terminals!

Not a single terminal could escape Jiang Fan's detection.

And in the Youhai Star Domain, there was indeed another backup terminal hidden by Silicon.

The Primordial Mech was already Silicon's strongest weapon. They could produce no stronger trump card than the Primordial Mech.

But even the Primordial Mech could not stop Jiang Fan from dismantling terminals. Even if the terminals were placed inside a thermal nuclear world, Jiang Fan could crush them.

At this moment, the Silicon Lord had no sense of security whatsoever.

It was like a chestnut stripped of its shell, completely exposed before Jiang Fan.

Faced with Jiang Fan's terrifying strength that surpassed the Primordial Mech, all defenses were rendered useless.

Silicon's terminals were not many left. If Jiang Fan kept dismantling them like this,

sooner or later, there would be none left.

By then, Silicon would truly face a life-and-death crisis.

Terminals were the most important thing for Silicon; the Silicon Lord's consciousness existed within them.

Although if all terminals were destroyed, the Silicon Lord could transmit his consciousness and all data into the databases of every mechanical soldier, forming a data array to replace the terminals and continue surviving,

but that would destroy Silicon's very foundation.

How could they then talk about dominating the starry sky and realizing the dream of a mechanical era?

At this moment, Jiang Fan was like a sharp blade, slashing mercilessly into Silicon's racial foundation, cut by cut.

Silicon could produce no effective means to stop Jiang Fan's slashes.

With its foundation destroyed, Silicon's grand edifice was about to collapse.

Moreover, even if they tried to build new terminals now, it was too late!

How could the rate of building keep up with Jiang Fan's rate of destruction?

The manufacturing of terminals required enormous resources, even surpassing that of Ultimate Star Weapons and Giant God Soldiers.

Even if Silicon could build as many as they wanted, the number of terminals was limited.

And today! Silicon was truly driven to the brink of extinction by Jiang Fan.
