Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1740 - 979: The Structure of the Blazing Nebula

The grand banquet of the Wolf Pack finally reached its conclusion just as the commanders—including the Soul Spirit Demon Spider, the Ancestral Dragon Turtle, and the Soul Demon—departed with the Undead Army Group to take command of the hidden military forces.

Every Exotic Beast began receiving their hard-earned rewards, including resources and newfound positions of authority.

A great number of these Exotic Beasts had achieved significant breakthroughs in power; they gathered in groups to return to their respective stations, eager to begin their celebrations!

Because the entire system was now unified, the constant, suffocating pressure of being battle-ready was no longer necessary.

Su Lin did not mind this brief period of relaxation and leisure for the creatures of the Wolf Pack Civilization.

He understood that even the most ferocious and prideful warriors required a balance of tension and rest.

If their minds were kept in a state of perpetual strain, these Exotic Beasts would eventually suffer from mental collapse and internal chaos.

Nevertheless, the secret army established by Su Lin did not rest; they continued their silent movements, patrolling every corner of the system.

At this time, as the various Exotic Beasts retreated with their spoils, Su Lin once again entered a state of deep meditation to absorb the lingering energy of the Lord of the Radiant Sun.

The foundation of the Lord of the Radiant Sun was far more robust than that of "Nightmare," and its energy reserves were significantly more vast.

Through hundreds of years of devouring, the Evolution Essence Su Lin had accumulated was already sufficient to trigger another advancement.

However, it was likely still not enough to shatter the barriers of the Tenth Heaven.

The further one climbs the path of Cultivation, the more astronomical the amount of energy and resources required for even a minor breakthrough becomes.

Consequently, Su Lin resolved to go all out, consuming every scrap of energy remaining from the Lord of the Radiant Sun to push himself fully into the realm of a Peak Heavenly Venerate!

Once achieved, his massive energy, mastery of rules, Heavenly Boundary True Intent, and physical wolf form would reach heights inconceivable for any Heavenly Boundary Species. Even if he could not quite rival a true taboo existence, the gap would be incredibly small!

By relying on physical power and speed that nearly matched a taboo existence, Su Lin would be able to confront those legendary entities with absolute certainty.

Furthermore, he could truly secure and govern this mighty system under the three suns, extending his influence into the Star Nebula to begin his blueprints for cosmic conquest.

It wasn't necessarily that Su Lin craved dominion over the starry seas; rather, it was the reality of this Dark Starry Sky!

To merely sit back and defend a single corner is to become the most tempting prey for all surrounding powers.

If one intends to be the predator instead of the prey, one must be possessed by the most savage ferocity, killing intent, and aggressive spirit!

Fueled by these ambitions, magnificent and strange phenomena manifested once more above Su Lin’s wolf body. The remaining vast energy, rules, and Heavenly Boundary True Intent of the Lord of the Radiant Sun surged like a great tide, resonating with the Sea of Destiny.

While the Wolf Lord commenced his secluded Cultivation, the Exotic Beasts of the Wolf Pack Civilization returned to their posts in an orderly fashion as the years began to slip away quietly.

....

With the entire system unified and free from major conflict, time flowed with incredible speed.

Exotic Beasts from all factions remained within their assigned territories, laboring to absorb the sealed resources, destiny, and Dao Rhythm. This resulted in a surge of military strength the likes of which the system had never seen.

In what felt like the blink of an eye, four thousand years had passed.

Throughout this four-millennium span, the established military structures continued to grow.

To hasten this expansion, Su Lin even triggered the three stellar sources, causing the Dao Rhythm and destiny—which normally would have taken eons to release—to erupt violently.

This allowed the destiny and Dao Rhythm of the Radiant Sun Star to be fully unleashed within a span of tens of thousands, or perhaps hundreds of thousands, of years.

Additionally,

While the subordinates of the Wolf Pack Civilization were busy nurturing their strength and expanding over these four thousand years, an intriguing event took place.

Two vanguard fleets from neighboring stellar systems arrived at the borders.

Based on their previous intelligence, the Haori Star System should have still been trapped in a brutal war after only a few thousand years, likely on the brink of total collapse.

They had come specifically to fish in troubled waters and seize what they could from the chaos.

Since they were merely ordinary stellar systems lacking the power of a Star Nebula Great Clan to warp massive fleets across the void, they could only send a large-scale military expedition.

To their absolute horror, while their hundreds of starry sky battleships were still a hundred billion kilometers away from the Sirius System, they witnessed the staggering phenomenon of the three-day sky.

This sight was so shocking it would have stunned the ancients.

Before they could even attempt a retreat, they were intercepted and boxed in by the Charm Fox and her Phantom Army.

Without the Wolf Pack Headquarters providing extra resources, the Charm Fox and her Phantom Army were unwilling to let such a "fat sheep" escape, especially since they had just ventured out into the deep starry sky.

During this era, the Charm Fox had already grown her Phantom Army to a strength of over twenty billion, and she successfully wiped out this foreign vanguard of thirty billion!

Though the Phantom Army was smaller in size, their individual combat prowess was formidable.

In terms of top-tier power, many were Venerable-level experts that the Charm Fox had personally captured!

Over the four thousand years, the number of powerful elites within the Phantom Army had become impossible to count.

Furthermore, the Charm Fox utilized the gifts from the Wolf Lord and the fortunes of the three-day sky to break through to the Mid-stage Heavenly Venerate rank on Pluto!

"So, you are merely the vanguard? Then return and tell your masters: the Radiant Sun Star System has been torn apart by the Star Nebula Great Clans. Now that two more stars have joined the fray to fight for control, there is almost no military strength left to speak of!"
