Chapter 2921: Say That Again?
From Jiangnan's perspective, the world before him began to flicker again, with the Milky Way Star Domain switching back and forth between a brilliance of stars and utter silence!
Actually, over the past year or so, Jiangnan had already experienced countless reality flickers!
It didn't affect his state much; he just ignored it as if it didn't exist!
But this time was clearly different!
After the flicker, the time spent staying in the original reality became noticeably longer, while Jiangnan's dream reality lasted shorter!
It even made Jiangnan feel like he couldn't tell which reality he was in anymore!
And it was getting worse!
If it were normal times, Jiangnan would have already run into the Life Forbidden Zone, gone back a few days, and then returned to stabilize reality!
But not now, Xun Zu had struck without warning, choosing this moment to attack!
If he left, who would block Xun Zu?
At this moment, Jiangnan could only endure the discomfort of the reality flicker, judging the situation in the dream reality through brief flashes to respond!
This undoubtedly increased the difficulty of the battle!
But Jiangnan had no choice; if he couldn't hold this wave, no one on the Carbon Alliance side could!
Xun Zu grinned menacingly: (ꐦ°᷄↼°᷅) "Still stubborn, huh? Let's see how long you can keep this arrogance!"
"Go ahead and struggle under my sword, use every method you can think of!"
"Or retreat into the Dimensional Gap. I truly have no way to deal with that now, but if you do, the Starry Sky World will be mine for the taking!"
Yang Jian's expression was gloomy. Indeed, retreating into the Dimensional Gap was an option!
But how vast was the entire Milky Way Star Domain? There were over a hundred thousand super-large star domains. Even if they wanted to move, it would take time—an extremely massive project!
The reason the Final Legion was so efficient in completing the massive project of collecting enormous amounts of matter was that they didn't care about the integrity of the planets. They just moved them over to feed the Final Black Hole as accretion disks!
Lossless transfer was obviously different from reckless transfer!
Even if they abandoned all uninhabited resource planets in the Milky Way Star Domain and transferred the life planets into the Dimensional Gap!
They could indeed survive this wave, but what use would that be?
Once Jiangnan chose to avoid battle and retreat into the Dimensional Gap!
That meant Jiangnan would no longer have the power to contend with Xun Zu, and humanity would lose its standing in the Starry Sky!
This was just the beginning!
If they retreated, Xun Zu could directly attack the over two thousand home star domains of the Carbon Alliance one by one!
How could they handle that? Move them one by one? How could they possibly relocate them in such a short time?
No matter what, the Carbon Alliance only had one choice: Jiangnan had to hold Xun Zu here!
Otherwise, the Carbon Alliance, including the Matter Alliance, would completely lose their capital to stand in the Starry Sky. There would be no place for the Matter Alliance or Carbon Alliance, so how could they develop?
Because the top combat power couldn't withstand Xun Zu's crushing force!
The situation had almost immediately become dangerous. Xun Zu had grown strong enough to break the balance!
But Jiangnan didn't respond. He just stood there in a daze!
Staring straight at Xun Zu!
From Jiangnan's perspective, what he saw was Xun Zu in the original reality!
There, Xun Zu's body was infinitely huge, as if about to pierce through the entire Starry Sky World!
And in his chest was the brilliant Eternal World!
The world wasn't poisoned by the remnants of Shen Zang. It was complete, brilliant, and powerful!
In Jiangnan's eyes, Xun Zu seemed like the only one in the Starry Sky World—a god, a truth-like existence!
His aura was so powerful it seemed endless, the ultimate peak, the pinnacle of power!
In the Eternal World, the stars shone brightly, bustling like a dream, with figures flickering!
His eyes were cold and merciless, looking down on all beings with contempt, as if watching ants, insects!
Jiangnan was stunned. Was this the Xun Zu of the original reality?
No Shen Zang shackles? A true Cosmos?
Able to use all his power without restraint?
What… what kind of terrifying strength was this?
But at this moment, Xun Zu in the dream reality was anxious. I had thought about my lines for over a year, and I finally said them!
What do you mean by just standing there staring at me?
No reaction at all?
(ꐦ°᷄yi°᷅) "Hey! Jiangnan! Are you even listening to what I'm saying!"
The reality flickered back, and Jiangnan finally saw Xun Zu in the dream reality!
The difference in aura between the two left Jiangnan momentarily unable to accept it!
This Xun Zu… was so damn weak!
Although he was still a bit hard to beat now, when Jiangnan compared Xun Zu of the dream reality to the original reality!
He still felt that the one before him was pathetically weak!
The Shen Zang shackles played no small role!
Jiangnan muttered unconsciously:
Σ(°△°|||) "So weak…"
Xun Zu's eyes widened: (ꐦ▼yi▼) "What? What did you say about me?"
Did he just call me weak? You can't even beat me, and you still think I'm weak?
Jiangnan raised an eyebrow: (๑◔～◔ิ) "Nothing. Sorry, what were you saying? I switched channels and didn't hear you."
When the real world flickered, during the flicker to that side, Jiangnan couldn't perceive anything in this reality!
So he had no idea what Xun Zu had just said!
Xun Zu's eyes bulged: (ꐦงᵒ̌yiᵒ̌)ง "I said! Still stubborn, huh? Let's see how long you can keep this arrogance… blablabla…"
He repeated the harsh words he had said before, because he had worked hard to come up with them, simulating them several times, revising many times!
Wouldn't it be a waste if Jiangnan didn't hear them?
But Jiangnan was stunned again. The reality flickered to that side!
There, Xun Zu raised his sword and slashed down, like an entire world pressing down on him, as if nothing could block that sword!
Jiangnan froze, because he had never seen such terrifying peak power!
He couldn't help but look back, and that glance left him dumbfounded!
There, the ruined Milky Way Star Domain, countless huge spatial rifts opened, and in the Dimensional Gap stood groups of warriors!
Most were unfamiliar faces, some from the Starry Sky Races, some former slave races, with a few humans mixed in, but very few in number!
Among them, Jiangnan saw Wang Gang, Ning Youyou, and Zi Yuan…
He even saw Hu Shou, with a very strong aura, and the fat, round ones from the Antenna Clan, also not weak…
At this moment, it seemed like the Starry Sky World was confronting the Dimensional Gap!
And Xun Zu's sword slash cut straight into the Dimensional Gap, the sword light already upon them!
But then, Jiangnan felt someone pull him from behind!
Dragging him to the rear!
A pitch-black figure passed him, charging headlong toward the falling eternal sword light of Xun Zu!
"Don't be afraid… I've got everything under control!"
Before, Jiangnan couldn't hear what people in the original reality were saying, but this time, he heard clearly!
The pitch-black figure rushing forward was Black God!
Jiangnan raised his hand to grab that dark figure. His own black arm, wolf tooth necklace, red bone ring—so familiar…
This wasn't something Jiangnan consciously controlled. He couldn't control himself. It was like he was a bystander inhabiting this body, experiencing everything!
The reality suddenly flickered back. Jiangnan couldn't see what happened over there!
But he found that his hand had also unconsciously raised…
Wanxiang was a bit confused. From his perspective, Jiangnan said nothing, first stepped back as if someone pulled him, then raised his hand as if to grab something!
Jiangnan was stunned. He clenched that unconsciously raised hand, his eyes flickering!
In the original reality, Xun Zu wasn't bound by the Shen Zang shackles and achieved true Cosmos!
He still had connections with Black God?
The situation there seemed to have become a confrontation between the Starry Sky World and the Dimensional Gap. Xun Zu, at the Cosmos realm, attacked into the Dimensional Gap?
What a big pot…
Jiangnan's expression was unprecedentedly serious. The flickering was too severe!
He felt like he was about to enter that original reality, to merge into it. What if he couldn't flicker back?
Would this dreamlike reality before him collapse?
Jiangnan fell silent!
Xun Zu: !!!
(caoyicaoꐦ) "Is this your reaction? Are you even listening to me?"
Xun Zu felt completely ignored!
Jiangnan paused, tilted his head: (๑•̌～•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣ "Ah? Were you just talking? What did you say? Did I miss something important?"
"Could you say that again?"
Jiangnan didn't do it on purpose. He really hadn't heard just now; he had switched to that side!
Xun Zu's eyes turned red. This guy is playing me, definitely playing me, right?
Are you deaf or what? You can't hear me?
I've already said it twice, and you're making me look like an idiot!
What's the point of more talk?
"I said screw your grandpa!"
Xun Zu was completely enraged. He raised his sword and slashed straight at the Milky Way Star Domain!
Jiangnan stomped his foot, could only use the Divine Shadow to block, but the reality flickering continued. Jiangnan would occasionally switch to that side!
He had no idea what was happening in this reality, only relying on the fragments he saw earlier to infer, judge, and resist!
You have to know, in battles between powerhouses, even a moment of distraction can be fatal, deciding life and death in an instant!
Let alone Jiangnan constantly switching channels!
Originally, he couldn't beat Xun Zu, and with the reality flickering, Jiangnan felt like he was about to develop multiple personalities!
Fighting here, turning into a battlefield, while that side was also fighting, even more intense and brutal!
Jiangnan was completely out of sorts, unable to focus!
Wanxiang was almost scared to death, because several times it was a narrow escape. He almost got killed by Xun Zu's sword. Jiangnan was dancing on the edge of life and death!
Was he still asleep or what?
Not only was Xun Zu attacking with full force, but the Eternal Legion led by Qian Li also launched a large-scale charge toward the Milky Way Star Domain!
The situation had become critical to the extreme!
