The Wolf Pack Civilization advanced relentlessly through the starry sky toward Bright Sun Star, taking over a millennium to close three hundred light-years while deploying elite armies like the Undying Cockroach vanguard and positioning the Ghost-faced Bat Clan in the second echelon. The Black Fourth Heavenly Lord's mirror image scouted their forces but found no opening for attack, withdrawing with billions of Heavenly Boundary troops. Over this millennium, Bright Sun Star's defenses crumbled to the final layer, the Dragon Rider Army was annihilated, and the Bright Day System's forces dwindled to tens of billions as the Red Sun Emperor lost his sanity.

Even as the Red Sun Emperor sought to eliminate additional war generals and troops as a deterrent,

he discovered that the military forces had fully united against him.

Even the Commander of the Supervision Team, whom he had elevated himself, refused to heed his decrees any longer.

The Red Sun Emperor stood somewhat dazed,

this cunning and ruthless hero risen from the shadows no longer comprehended the unfolding chaos.

For his Army of Lost Souls within the Star River Sea of Consciousness had suffered seventy percent losses amid endless conflicts spanning thousands of years.

The surviving Army of Lost Souls could barely match the Sun Body.

His personal battle prowess remained unparalleled, yet confronting almost two quadrillion cohesive troops from the Red Sun Empire all defying him proved too overwhelming to swing his mighty weapon.

And as the Red Sun Emperor planned to summon back the founding veterans for a brutal purge with soldiers' blades, he learned the millennium-long clash between those veterans and the Wolf Pack vanguard had ended.

Both sides had battled ferociously for an entire thousand years.

Throughout that millennium, the Wolf Pack Civilization hadn't progressed an inch,

while the Red Sun Empire’s veterans grew so formidable that the whole Wangshu Zone revered them.

Yet the toll of this war defied comprehension.

Only tens of thousands of these Red Sun Empire veterans survived.

These remaining tens of thousands stood guard over their fallen comrades in silence, their gazes empty and listless.

For they understood the immense hardship of that thousand-year struggle.

But after a complete millennium, it seemed the Red Sun Emperor and the entire Red Sun Empire had abandoned them.

Only now, amid crumbling military morale and ignored commands, did their once-trusted Emperor remember them.

How absurd was that?

"Oh~ Oh~ Oh~"

Right then, over this devastated battlefield, the veterans' distinctive mournful wail echoed.

This wail held no beauty, laced instead with the metallic tang of blood.

A mere scattered tens of thousands of veterans amid such an immense field resembled lost spirits haunting the wilds.

Meanwhile, the Hundred Battles Army and Star War Army Group held thirty percent strength nearby, observing these Red Sun Empire veterans.

They had witnessed combat prowess without equal, with military resolve pushed to its utmost.

Zero vulnerabilities—mindset, strategy, every element flawless.

In the bloody battle's final phase, the Wolf Lord transferred the leftover Starry Sky Battleships and Star Sky Mother Ships from the Wolf Pack Civilization to the Sun Fire Army Group, letting them join the fray.

Despite Hao Ri Princess commanding the Sun Fire alongside the Hundred Battles Army and Star War Army Group, they suffered heavy blows from these cornered veterans.

The Wolf Pack Civilization failed to advance even slightly, pinned down relentlessly here.

Ultimately, countless foil-level killing devices bombarded repeatedly to reduce these veterans to this state.

Truthfully, they had been vanquished!

Without the Sun Fire Army Group's reinforcement, not even a thousand foil-level killing devices—nor the superior numbers of the Star War Army Group and Guardian Divine Army over the veterans—would secure victory!

This ignited an irrepressible shame in the eyes of the Exotic Beast survivors across the entire Star War Army Group and Guardian Divine Army.

Even amid that humiliation, their inner respect and awe for this force endured!

Opponents like these merited lifelong remembrance!

Hence, despite only these thousands of flickering remnants left, the Guardian Divine Army, Star War Army Group, and Sun Fire Army Group offered them ultimate honor.

No troops encroached on the battlefield; they merely observed from a distance in quiet vigil.

Simultaneously, they anticipated the Wolf Lord's true legions and the Wolf Pack Civilization's main force!

For they sensed the war fervor and destiny propelled by the Star Sky Main Battle Banner, even the stars trembling faintly.

Such a phenomenon demanded at least one million quadrillion troops drawing near.

Thus, the Star War Army Group, Guardian Divine Army, and Sun Fire Army Group stood poised here without advancing.

For they perceived clearly,

absent the Void Abyss Mayfly Clan's support, these Red Sun Empire veterans, and the Iron Blood Soldier Blade forged in shared life-and-death trials, the Red Sun Emperor could never seize the Dazzling Star!

Today, the vaunted Red Sun Empire amounted to just the solitary Red Sun Emperor.

One thousand years back, those Red Sun veterans served as the empire's stabilizing pillar!

With them present, no military in the Red Sun Empire dared defy the Emperor's commands openly.

And those who battled for loyalty to the Red Sun Emperor were now either slain or utterly disillusioned.

So the once-mighty Red Sun Empire devolved into a hollow facade!

The Wangshu Zone's colossal twin Star Nebula Great Clans had been utterly shattered in this historic clash!

"Hahaha!"

Upon beholding this harrowing battlefield and sensing the Wolf Pack Civilization's primary army nearing, the Red Sun Emperor let out a bleak laugh.

No one could tell what fueled his mirth.

Yet the Sun Fire, Guardian Divine Army, and Star War Army Group formed battle arrays, standing ready in solemnity.

For though the Red Sun Empire hung by a thread, the Emperor confronting them was still a Forbidden Body!

Within his Star River Sea of Consciousness lingered at least an army of Dead Souls matching one or two million quadrillion.

Against a Forbidden entity, vigilance remained essential no matter the millennia of warfare.

Having rewarded the Wolf Clan, Su Lin shifted focus to the Bear Clan that battled alongside him; the White Bear at their head buzzed with excitement upon seeing the hundreds of pounds of flesh granted to the Wolf Clan, now yearning for their share.

Extreme Day's onset in the Land of Adventure hampered hunting severely, and since the Ice Age began, Variant Species proliferated among beasts, intensifying dangers in the frigid Arctic where one error meant death to fangs for just dozens of pounds of meat.

Thus, a key draw for many Bear Clan members to trail the White Wolf was abundant meat and premium Variant Species Flesh.

Su Lin hadn't overlooked the Bear Clan ever loyal in combat beside him, so with a resounding howl, he distributed generous portions of flesh to them.

The Bear Clan clustered, cohabiting daily with the White Wolf Pack; they grasped the White Wolf's howl meanings and responded with joyful "Roar Roar Roar" echoes in the caves, their bounty solidifying devotion to the White Wolf.

Su Lin knew this fight deepened his pack's fidelity, so lavish rewards to allies drew greater beast loyalty; his forces would swell mightier daily, forging the unassailable Arctic Overlord across icy expanses!

Once the Wolf Clan and Bear Clan received rewards, Sander and Tiffany finally recaptured Su Lin's notice, as he'd foreseen these humans tagging along with the Wolf Clan for survival.

Su Lin aimed to groom these two humans as his proxies, so facing them, he bestowed two hundred pounds of flesh—plenty for extended nourishment.

This stunned Sander and Tiffany, brimming them with thanks to the White Wolf; they hadn't anticipated battle involvement yielding such lavish provisions.

Sander reflected on Human Fortress days as a mere New Human enduring scorn and frequent degradation, where scarce Variant Species Flesh went first to elites or skilled New Humans, denying him any; contrasting then and now reaffirmed his decision.
