Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1903 - 1062: The True Main Event!

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Market manipulations in the two Star Nebula Great Clans caused wild fluctuations in resource prices, such as Heavenly Realm Blood Pills and top-quality Star Stones, enriching Su Lin and the Erosion Spirit King to over eighty trillion while bankrupting many Exotic Beasts and small forces. Conspiracy theories surfaced among the affected, but voices from the clans stirred public opinion, citing wartime shortages and announcements like the Undead Holy Sect's procurement for a super Star Sky Mother Ship to dismiss suspicions. As frenzy gripped the populace in gambling-like speculation, the volatile market deepened instability, prompting some to consider relocation and fracturing societal focus from war to wealth.

"Don't worry about it; pay no attention to those folks. This isn't the moment to pause simply because suspicions are rising. Once greed ignites in everyone's hearts and they're all gathered around this high-stakes table, it's inevitable—they won't quit until they've lost it all!"

Su Lin understood the nature of this scheme perfectly. Given sufficient time and repeated incidents, astute individuals would eventually uncover the truth.

Yet, once a multitude of species dives into this trap, it transforms into a devouring black hole, capable of swallowing up all in its path.

The manipulations spanning these recent decades served merely as an opening course.

The main event is yet to unfold!

Attempting to severely damage two Star Nebula Great Clans through only three cycles of speculation

underestimates the resilience and depth of what defines a Star Nebula Great Clan, especially if the goal is their utter destruction.

"Excellent! Oh, and Wolf Lord, our spies are no longer able to stem the flow of rumors. Numerous exiles from the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and the Plunderer Federation are disseminating the information."

The Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly kept delivering updates to the Wolf Lord.

"Mmm, understood."

Right from the beginning, as Su Lin orchestrated this scenario, he anticipated that eventually, tacticians across various interstellar races would analyze it thoroughly and grasp every detail.

At that point, every Star Nebula Great Clan, including those hardened by endless conflicts, would undoubtedly grow cautious regarding their own internal commerce networks.

Nevertheless, he intended to deploy this strategy only once!

Gleaning substantial gains from two Star Nebula Great Clans this round, while also causing minor losses to the "Unspeakable," would suffice for the Wolf Pack Civilization's growth requirements over an extended period.

With the chaos escalating in the Blazing Nebula, Su Lin's feelings of pressing need and unease intensified with each passing day.

In the end, amid the clashes between the Blazing Flame Clan faction and the "Unspeakable" Sky-Cunning Beast faction, he recognized the vulnerabilities of both himself and the Wolf Pack Civilization.

Amid such dominant currents, they remained mere leaves tossed by the gale,

to rise as the strategist pulling the strings, they needed at minimum to emerge as a formidable Star Nebula Great Clan!

Su Lin's aspirations weren't excessively lofty, nor was his thirst for control overwhelming, seeking to command the entirety of this immense cosmos.

Rather, he realized all too well that this was a shadowy cosmos,

one devoid of any true harmony or truce. To guide the Wolf Pack Civilization toward an existence of honor and respect, victory in this savage and deceptive contest was essential!

Across the vast expanse of the Stellar Dome, countless geniuses shine, their splendor captivating all in the fierce battles for supremacy!

Failing to vie for supremacy means fading into obscurity like fleeting civilizations in this cosmic stream, doomed to vanish in the endless flow.

Thus, to avoid extinction, one must battle, compete, grab, and claim!

This embodies the essence of the shadowy cosmos!

This explains why powers like the Blazing Flame Clan, which once forged a grand alliance across the Star Nebula,

and entities like the Angel Clan, preaching boundless angelic compassion, command legions of loyal adherents!

For they allowed their allied powers and Exotic Beasts to glimpse a radiant cosmos filled with promise and light.

Not the merciless shadowy cosmos we endure.

Having witnessed such brilliance, enduring the shadows becomes intolerable!

Over the ensuing few centuries,

Su Lin seldom refrained from deploying the Twelve-winged Dream Butterfly and the Dream Guards covertly for operations,

as he aimed for total concealment amid the uproar and disorder, gearing up for the impending climax.

Even absent their market manipulations, the commerce hubs within the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and the Predator Federation had utterly crumbled and rotted away.

Various groups and profiteering elites had begun independently inflating prices for numerous resources.

Yet without much success,

for after this upheaval, countless Exotic Beasts were already rising up on their own to oppose and retaliate, even alerting the authorities of the two Star Nebula Great Clans.

The Predator Federation chose not to step in,

since as a rising Star Nebula Great Clan in this sector, they held little regard for local powers, and longstanding tensions with the indigenous groups persisted.

However, the Heavenly Abyss Civilization did act decisively.

Though the Heavenly Abyss Civilization arrived in this area more recently, they had established roots here across two or three Eras.

The Heavenly Abyss Civilization stepped in formally, detaining numerous Exotic Beast groups involved in speculation.

Those who went too far faced public execution,

and they refined their trading framework even more, banning sharp swings in essential currency values, which effectively curbed the speculators already engaged within the Heavenly Abyss Civilization.

But Su Lin had previously commanded the Dream Guards to pull back, allowing them to evade this purge entirely.

In the meantime, nobody detected that amid the prior three speculation phases, one vital currency—massively depleted in this chaotic era—was vanishing swiftly from circulation.

Luck Stone!

It has long ranked with Star Stone and Blood Stone as a stellar medium of exchange.

Star Stone enables the forging of Star Energy Weapons, Star Energy Fortresses, and powers diverse Star Energy Mechanism Equipment, offering endless applications!

Blood Stone arises from condensed pure blood and flesh, restoring Qi-Blood, mending injuries, boosting cultivation, and harboring immense power.

Luck Stone, meanwhile, emerges from compressed pure Luck Stone,

at present, on the frontline battlegrounds, the Blazing Flame Clan faction and the "Unspeakable" Sky-Cunning Beast, Dark Erosion Holy Hall factions have launched into fierce confrontations.

Consequently, every side's fortune depletes at an alarming rate!

Fortune symbolizes the strength of a civilization or empire, while also securing the battle readiness of frontline armies.
