Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1907 - 1064: The Collapse of the Star Nebula Great Clans

Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
Over a thousand years, the vanishing Luck Stones escalated turmoil in the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and Predator Federation, with prices surging fiftyfold, prompting hoarding, executions, and migrations toward the borders controlled by the Erosion Spirit King and Dark Erosion Holy Hall. Su Lin, after two millennia, underestimated the clans' endurance as the Predator Federation profited and stabilized its military, while the Heavenly Abyss strained to sustain its quadrillion-strong forces amid resource shortages. Informed of contracts to import Luck Stones, Su Lin remained unconcerned, relying on assassinations by 'Unspeakable' and a strategy to harvest wealth, species, and military power from the weakening clans, planning an assault in another two thousand years.

Moreover, the Dark Erosion Holy Hall, yet another immense force, had engaged in intimate dealings with the 'Unspeakable' during this time, leading Su Lin to suspect it was likely aligned with the investors as well.

This realization left Su Lin deeply impressed by the profound depths of the 'Unspeakable’s' schemes.

Thank goodness the 'Unspeakable' chose not to join the battle for supremacy; if it had, wielding such secret knowledge and commanding numerous mighty investor factions, its strength in conflict would scarcely lag behind that of the Heizi Tribe or the Heavenly Destiny Clan!

Following that,

The Heavenly Abyss Civilization and the Predator Federation, these pair of Star Nebula Great Clans, after bottling up their domestic issues for more than a millennium, forfeited the confidence of their regional powers due to the absence of Luck Stone supplies.

'They've been lying to us the whole time! We must stop believing these fools, stand up, and claim their Destiny Stones and Vast Sea of Fortune; we deserve our portion of that wealth. They couldn't have built such an enormous fortune without our help!'

'Right on! Revolt! Why must we endure hardship while they bask in and sustain such immense Luck Blessing? Revolt!'

Suddenly,

By the third millennium, despite the Heavenly Abyss Civilization and the Predator Federation employing tactics like propaganda, intel control, and brute strength to quash the disturbances for ages, they finally failed to keep it in check.

The Heavenly Abyss Civilization dealt with just slight unrest, yet the Predator Federation confronted a massive uprising, where countless isolated bases inside were outright demolished.

The economic disorder soon spread to impact the whole Star Nebula Great Clan.

'Urgent report! Your Excellency, Divine Emperor of the Predators, insurgents are popping up everywhere, and now numerous rebels have banded together to advance on our position!'

Chaos broke out once more in the Predator Federation's central command assembly.

Truly, nobody foresaw descending into such a dire predicament.

Consequently, the Divine Emperor of the Predators, brimming with killing intent, resolved to take the core troops and crush the revolt.

In the end, the latest surge of avarice and monetary upheaval among the masses hadn't severely damaged the armed strength loyal to the Divine Emperor.

'Cease the doubts! Charge in! I intend to witness how long their defiance lasts and how steadfast their determination truly is. Also, chase down why the groups that promised Luck Stone deliveries haven't provided them yet?'

The visage of this Star Nebula Great Clan's Divine Emperor displayed raging anger.

For he had expected these ordinary folk to rebel, but he never dreamed the scale would grow so vast, with almost the full population in open mutiny?

What happened to all those once-submissive livestock and timid inhabitants?

Remember, such people only rebel when famine strikes!

Yet the Divine Emperor remained unaware that the prior three rounds of chaos combined with the skyrocketing Luck Stone prices had utterly transformed the outlook of the local factions,

Even those timid citizens, repeatedly fueled by awakened greed, morphed into ravenous fiends!

Added to that, the Divine Emperor's harsh drafts and plundering left them utterly unable to bear it any further.

The masses rose in full rebellion!

This initial outburst, though fierce, wouldn't topple the Predator Federation in mere moments.

After all, the Divine Emperor's core domain endured, and the troops' spirit held firm!

No matter if every civilian Exotic Beast turned against them, lacking coordination, absent the array of Star Energy Weapons, without the bold ferocity for true mortal combat, they could never topple this veteran, war-tempered force!

In certain respects, the Divine Emperor's harsh measures seemed cruel, yet they offered the sole path to survival amid utter catastrophe!

Nevertheless, as the Predator Federation's crackdown commenced, the entire Star Nebula Great Clan drowned in gore and carnage, becoming a merciless slaughterhouse!

The army of nearly quadrillion warriors, once able to dominate any battlefield unchallenged, now suffered heavy losses during this civil purge.

At the same time,

The Heavenly Abyss Civilization's plight fared little better,

While their civilian elements sparked only small-scale issues, their military ranks had entirely forfeited their combat zeal.

Even handling minor uprisings grew incredibly arduous.

Since resources ran scarce, they could hardly sustain the Heavenly Boundary True Intent's function, so nobody risked wasting Energy with the old recklessness?

To sum up, in just three millennia, these two Star Nebula Great Clans, famed for their savage valor in the Western Star Core, began exhibiting clear downturns.

Though they might still quell the domestic revolts, total downfall wouldn't strike in a flash.

But Su Lin recognized that this infighting would rapidly erode their overall might.

Should time allow, restoration was possible.

Indeed, the resilience and recovery prowess of a Star Nebula Great Clan stood unmatched.

'Who could it be? There's definitely someone scheming against us! The Undead Holy Sect? The Sky-Cunning Beast? Or maybe the Unspeakable?'

At this juncture, any leader unable to perceive the manipulation would be a complete idiot.

Still, even as the Master of the Celestial Abyss vented his fury during the pinnacle summit of the Heavenly Abyss Civilization,

Not a single Exotic Beast answered his demand.

For this whirlwind of avarice and economic havoc, kindled within the two Star Nebula Great Clans, had already blazed into an inferno, consuming every Exotic Beast—even numerous elite officers in attendance.

After all, the stakes involved gains dozens of times greater; none could withstand such colossal lures.

In the end, the Master of the Celestial Abyss resorted to splitting off another segment of the Celestial Abyss Destiny to soothe the whole Heavenly Abyss Civilization, though he gravely misjudged the avarice-fueled frenzy of the Exotic Beast Species.
