Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1738 - 848: Pulling Chestnuts from the Fire and the Eye of Causality

The gray-robed figure and the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine were forced to react to the abrupt assault as the quantum barrier and the Bronze Hall Gate both radiated with blinding intensity.

Amidst the turmoil, the replicated Absorbing Beam from the Void Warehouse finally shattered the temporal constraints, simultaneously grasping both the Bronze Hall Gate and the polyhedral crystal.

"Collect!"

Song Chi’s spirit trembled violently. The colorful upper rank Space Law forcibly severed the temporal mark maintained by the gray-robed man. Without further resistance, the polyhedral crystal vanished from the crystal platform, pulled into the dimensional storage of the replica Void Warehouse.

In contrast, despite the interference from another mythical entity, the gray-robed figure’s grip on his Bronze Hall Gate strange object remained incredibly firm. The space absorbing force, enhanced to Lv110, was clearly insufficient to instantly break the tether between them.

How fast is the reaction time of a mythical creature?

The figure in gray responded almost in the same heartbeat.

"Court death!"

Following a piercing, non-human shriek, the entire temporal fracture began to reverse.

Within the surrounding fragments of shattered time-space, countless versions of the gray-robed figure from the "past" manifested at once!

This was not what shocked Song Chi the most. The true crisis lay in the fact that every one of these manifested figures turned their gaze toward the empty void where the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship was concealed.

Meanwhile, the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine of the Creation Mechanical Civilization naturally detected the disturbance. Its chest-mounted antimatter core suddenly overloaded as a synthesized mechanical voice spoke coldly:

"Observer detected, activating causal weapon."

The armor plating on its back shifted and unfolded, exposing twelve missiles marked with crimson countdown symbols.

In this life-or-death moment, Song Chi regained his focus, and the prow of the Image Warship erupted with brilliant, multicolored light.

The already primed replica Judgment Light, the Blood Erosion Destruction Cannon, and the High-dimensional Particle Collapse Cannon fired nearly at once.

These three ship cannons represented the most formidable main batteries on the Image Warship, and all three were locked onto the gray-robed figure.

To be precise, they targeted the figure’s right arm, which was clamped tightly around the Bronze Hall Gate.

Furthermore, two additional components were triggered. The replica Time Chess Board manifested above the Image Warship, projecting a seven-colored board that radiated a temporal power equal to the Bronze Hall Gate, momentarily suppressing the latter entirely.

Seizing this opening, Song Chi precisely steered the Image Warship to emit another wave of absorbing force.

This time, without the fierce resistance from the Bronze Hall Gate itself, the absorption was bound to succeed as long as the gray-robed figure failed to react.

The three main cannon blasts fired earlier were intended specifically to ensure this window of opportunity.

Sensing the three beams of annihilation screaming toward him, the gray-robed figure instinctively hesitated in his attempt to reclaim the Bronze Hall Gate.

As for the final component activated on the Image Warship, it was the replica Mythical Pulse Energy Shield.

The "Mythical Pulse Wave" surged directly toward the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine, violently interrupting the energy flow of the charging causal weapon.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Accompanied by a subtle ripple in space, the Bronze Hall Gate held by the gray-robed figure vanished into thin air.

"Go!"

With both objectives secured, Song Chi immediately ordered the Image Warship to retreat.

The "Beyond the Three Realms, Not within the Five Elements" trait of the replica Three Realms Five Elements Certificate was triggered, causing the ship's hull, hidden in the depths of the void, to turn intangible.

At the same time, the Space Jump Device was engaged. Facilitated by the "Zen Seal·Time Speed" trait of the newly upgraded colorful lower rank Purusa Zen Seal, the jump sequence reached full charge almost instantly.

Just as Song Chi expected the Image Warship to leap away, his face suddenly went pale.

The replica Space Jump Device had fired, yet the Image Warship remained stationary.

"Spatial blockade?"

Pushing down the alarm rising in his mind, he quickly commanded the ship to use the Void Cloud Boat Model component.

Though not a jump-drive, the Void Cloud Boat Model was a three-colored flash escape component of even higher quality than the Space Jump Device.

"A five-colored spatial blockade... no... it’s likely seven-colored..."

Seeing that even the Void Cloud Boat Model failed to change their situation, Song Chi understood the gravity of the situation.

There was no time for further contemplation.

Whoosh!

A pillar of pitch-black light tore through the void, leaving no room for resistance as it nearly skewered the entire Image Warship.

The semi-intangible hull, which had been glowing with a faint light just a second ago, suddenly went dark.

The moment the black light column pierced the Image Warship, Song Chi’s spiritual connection was violently severed.

Inside the control room of the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, he snapped his eyes open, cold sweat drenching his brow.

"The causal strike of the Heavenly Destruction Divine Machine... it really couldn't be dodged."

Despite this, his expression soon relaxed, showing no signs of true panic.

While the Image Warship had been hit, he was protected by the supreme status granted by the chaos wonder Zhu Tian Ruins Market. Combined with the "Heavenly Destiny·Confusing Heavenly Mechanism" trait of the colorful extreme rank Heavenly Destiny Compass on the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong, his safety was guaranteed.

Even if the enemy attempted to trace the causality back to the source, he was certain the main body of the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong would remain hidden.
