Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf Chapter 1954 - 1087: Wolf Lord Ambushed, a Desperate Battle! (Part 2)
Previously on Devouring Evolution: I Reborn as an Arctic Wolf...
During this tense confrontation, a massive and intricate Concealment Array positioned behind the robe-clad figure gradually faded away. This revealed an overwhelming and dense host of thirty billion Heavenly Boundary troops!
Every single one of these soldiers hailed from the Heavenly Boundary and bore the dreaded Mark of Sin.
......
At this moment, the Black Sun Star Army finally reached the small constant star defended by the Undying Cockroach Army Group.
The Black Sun Star Army held its formation in absolute silence, yet the sheer weight of their murderous intent and combat spirit was palpable.
Such discipline and morale are rarely witnessed across the Wangshu Zone, achievable only by the elite cadres of the Red Sun Empire, the Wolf Pack Civilization, or certain sectors of the Bright Day System.
Within the ranks of the Wolf Pack Civilization, perhaps only forces like the Star War Army Group, the Guardian Divine Army, or the Nightmare Army could mirror such precision.
No other military faction could hope to replicate this.
However, the Sin Armies of the Black Sun Star had achieved this feat effortlessly, with only the occasional, complex spiritual ripple emanating from their vassal contingents.
This display deeply unsettled the Roach Emperor, inciting a new wave of reverence for the elite Black Sun Star Army.
Just as he was grappling with this shock, the Black Sun Star Lord manifested atop his battle formation as if phasing through reality itself.
Gazing down at the Roach Emperor stationed on the constant star, he spoke: "Roach Emperor, that is your title, is it not? We have clashed for over a millennium. You have held me back with a fledgling Star Sky Insect Clan for more than a thousand years; your tenacity is quite impressive. If you choose to pledge your allegiance to me, I am prepared to grant you the rank of Vice Star Lord!"
The Black Sun Star Lord hovered in the void, fully recovered from previous wounds, radiating the terrifying aura of a Late Stage Half-step Forbidden cultivator.
He, too, carried the Mark of Sin. Whether in his physical form, his Origin Power, his mastery of Heavenly Boundary True Intent, or his grasp of Dimensional True Intent, he was peerless, rivaling the greatest Star Sky Physiques.
Having transformed his mortal frame into the ultimate Sin Body, he felt a genuine kinship with the Roach Emperor, who had likewise ascended from humble origins.
He understood fully that a warrior built from the ground up possesses far greater potential than one nurtured in the cradles of great clans.
Yet, long after the Black Sun Star Lord’s spiritual message had been delivered, the Roach Emperor remained stoic and silent.
This silence provided the Black Sun Star Lord with his answer.
Observing the Undying Cockroach Army Group—depleted by a casualty rate exceeding eighty percent yet maintaining such fierce morale and an unwavering desire to fight unto death—he felt a flicker of reluctance and true admiration.
To lead a young Star Sky Insect Clan to such a state is no minor accomplishment; even the Insect Queen would grasp the magnitude of this feat.
Few possess the ruthlessness required to endlessly cull and butcher their own subordinates, and even fewer could sustain such discipline after such bloodshed.
After a brief silence, the Black Sun Star Lord projected a strictly confidential spiritual message: "Roach Emperor, I presume you are waiting for the Wolf Lord or perhaps other reinforcements? Let me be clear: the four Vassal Town Army Groups of the Wolf Pack Civilization, numbering just over forty trillion, are merely peripheral forces. Their arrival will only serve to litter this battlefield with more corpses without altering the outcome."
"Furthermore, my slow, methodical advance is intended to lure them in; slaughtering them here will leave the path to the Sky Wolf System completely unobstructed for my Black Sun Star Army! As for the Wolf Lord..."
The Black Sun Star Lord paused for a moment before continuing: "He will not come. Perhaps only his corpse will arrive. Kneel, and I shall grant you a vast domain of stellar space!"
With those words, the starry void trembled.
Even though the entire Undying Cockroach Army Group revered the Roach Emperor, the revelation within that spiritual message caused every enlightened member of the collective to pale.
Once enlightened, they realized the true significance of the Wolf Lord within the Wolf Pack Civilization.
If the Wolf Lord had indeed perished, then as the Black Sun Star Lord suggested, the approaching Vassal Town Army Groups were merely marching to their slaughter.
This realization sent the Roach Emperor into a frenzy, his eyes igniting with a blood-black fire as he unleashed a piercing shriek, driving the Undying Cockroach Army Group into a state of violent agitation.
A storm of murderously intense energy churned like a tempestuous ocean.
As the Roach Emperor resolved to fight for his final moments, his prototype soul bone—steeped in relentless and iron-willed essence—began to take its final, lethal shape.
Every Extreme Heaven Realm Secret Technique is cataclysmic, forged in the fires of immense pressure and desperate opportunity.
As that soul bone materialized, the Roach Emperor’s aura grew heavy with a trace of mysterious Dimensional True Intent.
At that moment, only the Black Sun Star Lord sensed the change occurring in the Roach Emperor.
As the Roach Emperor teetered on the brink of demonic possession, embodying the very essence of sin, the entire Undying Cockroach Army Group descended into madness. They utilized their meager remaining stock of Star Stone intelligent Exotic Beasts to launch an opening assault on the Black Sun Star Army.
Simultaneously, the majority of the Undying Cockroach Army Group abandoned their defensive positions on the constant star to launch an unexpected, all-out offensive.
Meanwhile, the Roach Emperor, clinging to a final shred of lucidity, tore through space to breach the heart of the Black Sun Star Army.
There, he forcibly detonated more than twenty foil-level killing devices—treasures gifted by the Wolf Lord and accumulated through his own efforts.
"Madness! Absolute madness! Are you, a dignified Star Sky Insect Queen, throwing your life away on such a suicidal tactic?"
The Black Sun Star Lord roared in rage, his earlier admiration replaced by venom as he realized the Roach Emperor had committed to a suicide attack.
He immediately channeled a supreme technique, struggling to repel the unfolding devastation of the foil-level devices.
It was too late. In a heartbeat, countless members of the Sin Army were vaporized, leaving no trace of bone, with only their fleeing spiritual essence drifting into the void.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Amidst the series of cataclysmic explosions at the epicenter, the Roach Emperor—despite his half-step taboo status—was reduced to a shattered, unrecognizable skeleton.
Yet, even that grotesque, emerald-green skeleton radiated an aura of supreme arrogance and hostility. His sin True Intent burned like an eternal pyre.
He appeared as a God of War forged in sin, rising from the wreckage. Driven by fading combat instincts, he charged headlong into the ranks of the Sin Star Army, initiating a brutal slaughter.
The Roach Emperor’s decisive actions provided his final reply to the Black Sun Star Lord’s demand.
With such a spine of iron, how could he ever kneel?
Witnessing their Queen’s stand, the Undying Cockroaches lost all remaining sanity, burning their very Life Essence to form a massive formation that charged fearlessly into the Black Sun Star Army.
The sheer scale of this turmoil alerted the four nearby military groups, whose commanders immediately mobilized their elite forces to rush toward the battlefield.
They understood that the Undying Cockroach Army Group, having endured over a thousand years of endless total war, was finally reaching its breaking point.
