An elder of the Blazing Flame Royal Family, hidden in the Forbidden Mountain Range, notes the severed causal link to prodigy Chi Yanqian and debates his potential with the Mountain Master. The Heavenly Destiny Clan's powerful Deputy Clan Leader arrives, probes the mountain's illusions, and demands a meeting, prompting the elder to emerge for negotiation rather than conflict, offering residual fortune for leniency to allies. Meanwhile, in the Wangshu Zone, the Hundred Stars Alliance is eradicated, Black Sun forces defeated, and the Bright Day System masses troops with Void Abyss Mayfly allies to besiege the defiant Red Sun Empire.

"Have all the various warlords reached their designated positions?"

Right now, the Sun Empress, clad in her phoenix robe, sensed her piercing and intensely grating spiritual will turning a touch raspy.

For over these two thousand years of savage battles, even she, directing the grand strategy, couldn't escape utter weariness.

Indeed, she wasn't merely directing from afar; she had personally severed the Emperor Slayer's head.

She demolished every bit of the Emperor Slayer's assets and distributed them to her loyal warlords!

Within just days, not only was a half-step forbidden peak powerhouse fully absorbed, but all her warlords had made huge strides forward.

The Sunshine Third Emperor, previously gravely injured, cleared his meridians, healed ancient wounds, and surged into the late half-step taboo stage using half the Emperor Slayer's Dimension Heart.

Her own commander, Shadow Bird, likewise advanced to the late half-step taboo phase with the remaining half of the Dimension Heart!

As for the Sun Empress, beyond absorbing several soul bones from the Emperor Slayer, she ignored the leftover treasures.

Her feat of beheading the Emperor Slayer herself proved her battle prowess exceeded his by far.

She stood as a peerless quasi-taboo of ultimate might!

With two supreme quasi-taboos in the Bright Day System, it showcased the authentic dominance of an eternal ruler over the Wangshu Zone across endless ages!

The Sun Empress's strength also boosted the Bright Day System army's spirits and cohesion to unprecedented heights once more.

"Empress, sixty-three warlords have all taken their assigned spots. Thirteen act as reserves to support the whole front, while fifty strike the Red Sun Stellar System from five angles,

as our core force of 265 trillion stands poised to crush the Red Sun Empire's primary army and those lingering trillions of veterans. When they show up, total destruction awaits them!"

Shadow Bird, the Sun Empress's trusted commander, responded with deep respect at that moment.

Her spiritual will carried a fierce intent to slay and deep loathing for the Red Sun Empire's veterans.

Having served the Empress for ages, Shadow Bird had seen many epic triumphs,

but never before had a puny force under 2 trillion inflicted over 40 trillion losses on their main host.

That Red Sun veterans' group still hovered near a trillion strong!

This meant a staggering loss ratio of nearly 1:50!

An unimaginable feat!

Shadow Bird fought in that clash too, so how could she not burn with humiliation?

Even with 300 billion Heavenly Boundary elites, mighty arrays, battle formations, luck, and Blazing Flame Body enhancements from true Blazing Flame blood, it shouldn't have gone down like that!

Without wiping out those veterans entirely, Shadow Bird and the central army's top generals and War Kings couldn't face the Empress with pride.

They vowed to erase the Red Sun Empire in a thousand years at the start!

Yet over 2000 years later, it endured!

That disgrace and rage had burrowed deep into Shadow Bird and every general and War King's soul.

"Excellent! That's the spirit we need!"

The Sun Empress felt the burning conviction in Shadow Bird's heart and nodded in approval.

In the fiercest, bloodiest fights, such resolve, fury, shame, plus the honor and assurance from endless eras, would carry them through to victory!

"Now, I decree the Phoenix Order: alert the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander to assault the Red Sun Empire's western flank in three days, as we unleash our full assault simultaneously. In this fight, Shadow Bird, lead my 100 billion Heavenly Boundary guards to supervise, and sternly warn the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander that any retreat means you execute all their generals and above, then butcher their vast offspring. Naturally, if any Bright Day System warlords falter, the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan may strike them down too!

To sum up, we stake it all in this clash! Retreat means death! Post-battle, all spoils are up for grabs; even if chaos erupts, I, the Sun Empress, stay out of it!"

The Sun Empress's Phoenix Order filled Shadow Bird with grave intensity.

She knew the Bright Day System had barely over 1,000 billion Heavenly Boundary left!

A few hundred billion rested with assorted lords and marquises, the bulk—1,000 billion—her personal retinue.

The gravity and faith in this duty spoke volumes.

Shadow Bird's gaze ignited with loyalty, as true warriors perish for trusted leaders.

She dropped to her knees, kowtowed to the Empress, formally took the Phoenix Order, then swiftly relayed it across the Bright Day System forces and the local Void Abyss Mayfly Clan troops.

This harsh decree stirred unrest among some Void Abyss Mayfly Clan marquises.

But their War Commander crushed one with ruthless decree, forcing all units into line.

Even he grasped that Bright Day System and Red Sun Empire faced their ultimate clash.

This round would crown the Wangshu Zone's supreme hegemon!

Thus, sabotaging Bright Day System would trigger the Phoenix Order's deadly promise—no bluff.

"Command every unit here to launch total assault on Red Sun Empire's west in three days. I want no body counts; no tales of your terror at savage combat. All Void Abyss Mayfly Clan forces must conquer their instincts—if not, my forces and my three elite groups will force it upon you!"

The Void Abyss Mayfly Clan War Commander realized he was chained to Bright Day System's war machine, no escape!

His eyes blazed crimson, fueling savage determination!

The instinct-driven Void Abyss Mayfly Clan mobilized anew under mortal peril!

Three days passed,

The epic finale ignited on cue.

This colossal war lacked the flashy heroics of tales,

save for taboo beings, in trillion-scale stellar clashes, only raw clashes of ironclad troops reigned.

The Red Sun Emperor and Sun Empress, twin Wangshu Zone sovereigns, locked gazes long before the storm, exchanging no morale-boosting thoughts.

Every rallying cry had rung out across two millennia!

Finally, both armies bellowed the same unyielding "kill!" as combat erupted.

Bright Day System opened with endless Star Energy Weapons and over a thousand Star Sky Mother Ship Groups hammering Red Sun Star System's edges.

Then surged the lords' suicidal vanguard squads.

Death-Defying Squads deploy only in direst strife.

Not always top elites, yet their burst power terrifies.

From inception, they pledge bloody trails across the field!

"Kill! For the Bright Day System! For Blazing Flame Clan's glory!"

Squads from every front howled with do-or-die zeal.

They ignited all life essence, erupting horrifying might.

Shielded by Extreme Heaven Realm Battle Formation, they hauled one-way foil-grade breachers across!

Boom!

Those foil-level devastators detonated across Red Sun Empire's orbital defenses.

Breaches ripped open swiftly.

Yet Red Sun Empire Death Warriors plugged them with flesh instantly.

Frenzied close-quarters carnage engulfed the zone.

Some Death-Defying Squads braved Red Sun Empire's crushing fate to yank Dark Fortresses free amid chaos.

These Star Stone bastions matched Star Sky Mother Ship mains, eternal kill-zones bleeding foes dry.

But Bright Day System's berserkers snuck Exotic Beasts through,

torn apart repeatedly, yet they pressed on.

Inside, they unleashed all, detonating savagely.

Heavenly Boundary Mark blasts wrecked fellow Heavenly Realm and Ancestor Exotic Beasts irreparably, toppling Dark Fortresses fast.

This clash revealed peak morale, resolve, and order from Bright Day System and Red Sun Empire alike.

None rivaled save Black Sun Constant Star and Wolf Pack Civilization troops!

Amid the slaughter, Red Sun Emperor stood silent atop his Main Star palace, hands-off now.

His starry-conquering eyes, fixed on the gore-soaked field, betrayed quiet sorrow and ache.

Meanwhile, Sun Empress spearheaded the charge, Emperor Slayer's head dangling from her banner, challenging Red Sun Emperor to single combat.

But he exuded fading hero's twilight.

A solitary colossus,

nearly all Red Sun forces bled on fronts, leaving him and scant guards in the vast Imperial City.

Among them loomed the State Preceptor, returned from Wolf Pack Civilization, at the fore.

"Emperor, let them fight on, perhaps victory lingers! Avoid this doomed path! Once chosen, Starry Sky Will and powers will brand you foe, a blight, like Blazing Flame Ink last Era,"

The State Preceptor stood by the Emperor, his spiritual will heavy with warning.

Maybe only he fathomed the Emperor's direst, ultimate gambit among Red Sun species?

Yet he knew it led to ruin!

Taken, like Star Sky Insect Clan, brief glory yields to reckless bloating and doom!

State Preceptor figured Wolf Lord first to tread it post-Hundred Stars Alliance.

He misjudged the bloodbath required!

And the Emperor's founding slaughters?

Nine Stellar Systems forged into his Nine Yang Blazing Flame Body—Fourth Level Peak!

His frame held triple-digit Small Constant Stars plus stray orbs.

To shatter limits truly, Red Sun Emperor must devour his whole Red Sun Star System!

For a founder to consume his realm,

Its grief, loneliness, hesitation—known solely to him.

Moreover, renewing Heavenly Boundary demands endless Star Energy and life-force to sustain inner Marks,

turning Red Sun Emperor to mindless slaughter-Demon, doomed to pointless conquests.

Grimmer than Blazing Flame Ink's end!

Ink fell, but legacy endures!

A Heavenly Boundary renewer Emperor's defeat? Star Nebula spits scorn eternal!
