# Chapter 2906: Ripples of the Aftermath!
Jiangnan stared intently at the progress bar, watching the resentment value climb!
Until the progress bar hit the top!
His heart was filled with hope—perhaps the real mystery would be revealed today!
Had he finally waited for it?
But Jiangnan stood there waiting for a long time, yet nothing changed at all!
Jiangnan was stunned. What was going on?
Hadn't the progress bar already reached the top? And after breaking all slave species shackles, the process of the Starry Sky Races generating resentment value for him was continuous and massive!
It would last for months, maybe even years—because every time they thought about this matter, resentment would sprout in their hearts!
Logically, the progress bar should be full—why wasn't anything happening?
Not believing it, Jiangnan even zoomed in on the progress bar, only to discover!
The progress bar hadn't actually reached the top—it was just a tiny bit short, and then it stopped moving!
It was the same as when a progress bar loads to 99.9999...% and then gets stuck!
Jiangnan's face turned green.
(￢﹏￢٥) "Darling! What the hell is this? Is your progress bar leaking? How come it can't fill up?"
"This so-called ultimate gift package can't be a scam, right?"
Even if the progress bar required an enormous amount, having the entire starry sky generate resentment for him should have been enough to fill it!
[(•́ω•̀٥)...]
[N-No, it's not a scam. There really is an ultimate gift package, yo...]
[May-Maybe the progress bar really is leaking? M-Maybe one day it will fill up?]
[(∗ᵒ̶̶̷̀ꇴ˂̶́)੭ Ehehe]
[Please rest assured, Host. None of the resentment value that comes in is wasted. It all goes where it should go and plays the role it should play...]
[Yo-You sure are fast, aren't you?]
Even the system hadn't expected Jiangnan to be this inhuman!
The total amount of resentment value required for this progress bar was undoubtedly staggering!
According to the original plan, Jiangnan should have collected it over a period of time before it filled—by then, the timing would have been about right...
But the problem was that Jiangnan's degree of being inhuman far exceeded the System Baby's imagination!
First, he went on a starry-sky-wide circuit of kuangkang beating people, crazily earning resentment value. Then he collapsed the incantation system, making the entire starry sky generate resentment for him!
This progress bar, which was supposed to be as difficult as climbing to the heavens, was filled by Jiangnan in a short period of time!
Jiangnan's energy exceeded the System Baby's imagination...
Helpless, the System Baby had no choice but to publicly cheat!
Jiangnan spat blood. What the hell does "the progress bar is leaking" even mean? Why didn't you say so earlier?
I've been running around all over the sky, almost filled it up, and now you say it's leaking?
If the System Baby had a physical form, he would definitely grab it and spank its butt hard!
Jiangnan scratched his hair irritably, his face turning black!
[(∗❛ั～❛ั) D-Don't be mad, okay～ Getting angry won't generate resentment value either!]
Jiangnan: !!!
Are you rubbing it in?
Jiangnan took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, and his eyes showed a hint of helplessness.
"It's not time yet... is it?"
[Yeah...]
"I only ask you two questions. Answer if you can. If you can't, forget it..."
[Okay...]
"This reality won't collapse yet. I still have time, right?"
[Yes!]
"Will you give me this ultimate gift package before reality collapses, and will it be in time?"
[Yeah...]
The System Baby, which had been endlessly clingy just a moment ago, suddenly became extremely frugal with words!
Jiangnan sighed. At least he got answers to what he wanted to ask. That allowed him to relax a little.
At least no matter what, the System Baby wouldn't screw him over. In major matters, it had never messed things up either.
That was enough. He could only wait for the so-called right moment to arrive, right?
Anyway, the progress bar was already full. When it would be cashed in was up to the System Baby.
But the System Baby hadn't been completely unhelpful either.
"The resentment value all went to where it should go and played the role it should play, huh?"
Jiangnan couldn't figure out what the system's purpose was in collecting resentment value!
From the very beginning when he first bound the system, it had started collecting resentment value. Who knows how much the system had secretly skimmed off along the way?
What was the System Baby working so hard to collect resentment value for?
Jiangnan, the higher he climbed, the more deeply he understood the terrifying power of emotions!
Whether it was the idealistic methods that helped him greatly, the power of will, the god-locking technique, or even the emotional aura boost from the War Horn—
They were all manifestations of emotional power!
The power of emotions was ethereal and intangible, yet it truly existed!
Jiangnan felt that the more he understood, the more mysteries there were!
And all the mysteries would be unveiled the moment he found the correct answer!
"Hoo~"
He let out a long breath, shook his head, stretched, and grinned.
٩(๛˘³˘)۶ "Let's go～ Time to head home! All done!"
Jiangnan hummed a little tune, walked with a leisurely swagger, and headed toward the Dimensional Star City with a satisfied expression, leaving only the devastated Eternal Kingdom behind.
The Star Devourers looked at the ruins of the Eternal Kingdom and couldn't help twitching their mouths.
Noah shrugged helplessly:
╮(•́ω•̀)╭ "See? I told you... the Star Sea Curse Source is gone, right?"
Chong Qianjin nodded mechanically. It really was exactly as she had said before!
Xun Zu hadn't managed to protect the Star Sea Curse Source after all, and Jiangnan had destroyed it!
But it was a bit different from the original plan—the one-on-one had turned into a group beating...
"As long as Southern God wants to do something, there's nothing under this starry sky he can't accomplish, right? And no one can stop him..."
"As for that Jiang Fan... sss—"
At the mention of this, everyone's face darkened!
Jiang Fan was even fiercer than Jiangnan, okay?
As the old saying goes, "Old ginger is spicier." Jiang Fan was over three thousand years older than Jiangnan—how spicy must he be?
Jiangnan was already this powerful, and everything he set out to do came true. What about Jiang Fan?
Compared to Jiangnan, he could only be said to surpass him, okay?
Not to mention they had the Silicon race aiding them and the Primordial Machine helping. Just thinking about it was headache-inducing!
After all, what Jiang Fan wanted to do was way crazier than Jiangnan...
Yang Jian also rubbed his brow, a worried look on his face. "No need to worry too much. Didn't you see the Primordial Machine came this time to help with support?"
"Perhaps there's some meaning behind Jiang Fan's intentions. At least in the current situation, the Final Legion and the Carbon Alliance won't have large-scale direct confrontations for now..."
"This matter is troublesome, but we have more important things to do right now, don't we?"
"Now that every clan has lost their slave species maintenance, it's probably quite damaging, right? Take advantage of the time when everyone is injured to quickly handle post-arrangements. In chaotic times, you don't always get a chance to catch your breath!"
"But if you need mechanical soldiers to replace the work, feel free to contact Ai Jiang to purchase, oh!"
As soon as he said this, the Star Devourers of the Carbon Alliance all had black faces.
Whose fault was it that everyone was so injured?!
As expected of you, Blackhearted Jian. Even at a time like this, you still don't miss a chance to make money!
Jiangnan is obvious lecher, while you are hidden sleaze!
An obvious lecher is easy to guard against, but a hidden sleaze is hard to prevent!
But despite all that, with the incantation system in full collapse and all the Starry Sky Races injured, properly handling clan affairs and restoring normal operations was the correct path.
And predictably, with the liberation of all slave species, a wave of unprecedented chaos would inevitably sweep the starry sky once again!
The real chaos had begun!
Having experienced the major incident of the incantation system's collapse, all the Starry Sky Races sulked at home with resentful faces, licking their wounds alone!
And the most outrageous thing was that during the period when Jiangnan was forcefully attacking the Eternal Kingdom!
The Silicon Race's Cross Holy Wing Ships led the Final Legion in a fierce raid on the Bose Clan's major mines and resource industries, launching a lightning war!
They really gave the Bose Clan a good thrashing!
The Silicon race would never miss an opportunity to gain an advantage!
And while each clan was licking their wounds, the Silicon Final Legion began to exert force!
The advance of the Final Line not only didn't slow due to territorial expansion but actually accelerated!
Because the incantation system's collapse had the least impact on the Silicon race!
Moreover, the Bose Clan had lost their star routes, and all the star gate transportation systems in the various star domains had become completely ineffective!
Now there were only two star navigation systems left in the starry sky—Silicon Speed Star Navigation and Dimensional Star Navigation!
But now, because the Silicon Clan was executing the Final Plan, they had completely abandoned all concern for consequences!
They would even cut off the star route transportation of a particular star domain, isolating it to facilitate the Final Legion's advancement of the line!
It had been said before that every galaxy was a solitary island of starlight, and star routes served as bridges connecting those islands!
If the star routes were cut, the connection between the solitary island and the starry sky world would be severed. How could it withstand the crushing force of the Final Army?
As for beings at the level of Star Devourers or Jiangnan, they had long since been able to ignore the vast distances of the starry sky!
But such existences were extremely rare. The vast majority in the starry sky world still relied on star routes!
In times of war, whoever controlled the star routes controlled the initiative!
Fortunately, the Dimensional Star Navigation was still supporting things. Even during wartime, it operated steadily, holding up the entire star route system of the starry sky world!
But the Dimensional Star Navigation had the characteristic of being slower. Even though they had added space teleportation arrays, particle transmission machines, and other faster lines, covering the entire starry sky in a short time was still quite difficult!
The Silicon race took advantage of this gap when the Bose Bose Star Navigation went offline, using the Silicon Speed Star Navigation as a means of leverage to accelerate the Final Plan's advancement!
Every good thing has a bad side!
The collapse of the incantation system wasn't entirely a good thing. Jiangnan hadn't considered such points, but he still did it!
In life, it's hard to have both!
When there's something that must be done, you have to make the hard decision; otherwise, you'll suffer from hesitation!
And the liberation of all slave species across the starry sky created an enormous impact on the starry sky world!
