Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1764 - 860: [Chaos Wonders—Dimension Anchor] (2)
Previously on Global Era of Star trekking...
"The equatorial defensive perimeter is being penetrated by the Creation Mechanical Civilization’s Chaotic Fleet."
Ji Heng projected the Star Chart, revealing hundreds of crimson markers advancing toward the South Pole.
"It appears they have discarded all pretense and trickery as well."
Song Chi let out a cold sneer. Since that pillar of icy blue light erupted nearly a millennium ago, the masks of "Friendly Alliance" and "Peaceful Exploration" had been completely shattered.
The Creation Mechanical Civilization, which boasted of being perfectly logical silicon-based lifeforms, were now swarming forward like sharks that had caught the scent of blood.
Suddenly, the Mirror Image Warship shuddered violently as a blinding purple flash erupted across the sensors—a stray aftershock of a Transcender’s Law had pierced the atmosphere of Origin Star. It struck the Antarctic ice cap, instantly turning half of a continental shelf glacier into vapor.
"That makes the twelfth one," Jiang Yuan’s voice grew heavy.
Upon the light curtain, the tally of red markers signifying Transcender interference continued to rise.
Seven hailed from the Chaos Divine Land, three from the Abyss Demon Race, and two from the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds.
Even the Shi Clan, situated far within the Shattered Starry Sea, had dispatched three Ancestor Buddhas, including one of the Eleventh Rank.
These supreme entities, who were supposed to uphold the balance of the universe, were now wagering everything like desperate gamblers at a table.
Song Chi’s Eye of Truth triggered automatically, filling the Main Control Room with the piercing wail of alarms.
A blurred silhouette manifested within the heart of the icy blue light pillar—it was a dodecahedron forged from countless dimensional crystal facets, each reflecting a different corner of the cosmos.
[Chaos Oddity: Dimension Anchor]
[Status: Nurturing Phase 98.6%]
[Warning: Full maturation is imminent. Please prepare for the consequences.]
Song Chi’s pupils narrowed; this treasure, capable of destabilizing the All Heavens Star Sea, had matured several decades sooner than predicted.
Before he could process this, innumerable spatial rifts tore open across the Antarctic continent of Origin Star.
Moments later, legions of alien races poured from the rifts. The Abyss Demon Race’s "Nest of Pain" led the charge—a demonic bastion forged from ten thousand living stars that ripped through the void, its seven hundred and twenty Demon God Pillars discharging torrents of dark matter simultaneously.
Following them, the Shi Clan’s "Other Shore Lotus Platform" shattered the vacuum as it descended. The golden radiance of the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree clashed violently with the demonic Qi, which was further bolstered by the lingering power of several other Transcending factions.
The motives of this Broken Star Sea Dominator Civilization were truly impossible to grasp; they had only recently allied with the Abyss to hunt the Chaos Demon Ape race, yet here they were, locked in a fierce confrontation with the Abyss once more.
The Endless Sand Sea forced its way through the spatial fractures, manifesting as a colossal fortress of sand grains upon the frozen earth.
...
In contrast to these other mythical powers, the Torch Civilization’s reaction was far more direct.
"Activate the Circulation Star Formation!"
Jiang Yuan’s command thundered through the comms. Three warships deployed their star tracks in unison, as thirty-six phantoms of Bronze Divine Pillars materialized into a formation.
However, before the formation could stabilize, violent tremors radiated from the distant Law light pillar.
"The Dimension Anchor has finished maturing!" Ji Heng shouted suddenly.
In an instant, the icy blue pillar of light detonated. Twelve crystalline structures rose slowly, the dimensional vistas flowing across their surfaces striking the Divine Soul of every onlooker with awe—these were high-dimensional scenes far beyond the comprehension of any being in the All Heavens Star Sea. This was a supreme treasure truly capable of bridging high-dimensional planes.
The battlefield froze in an eerie silence for a heartbeat before erupting into an even more frenzied slaughter.
The Six-armed Demon God ripped two of its own limbs off to refine them into Blood Axes; Shakyamuni Buddha shattered the Seven-layered Merit Golden Wheel to invoke Forbidden Buddhism; even the typically reserved Mythical Ice Clan revealed their true Mythical Ice Demon forms.
A barrage of attacks capable of snuffing out entire star universes focused on that small crystal, only to vanish inexplicably before they could touch its surface.
This evolved [Chaos Oddity] clearly possessed singular properties, but at this moment, no one paused to reflect. The entire Extreme South Plate of Origin Star had become a meat grinder, pitting the Abyss Demon Race against the Chaos Demon Ape, the Sand Spirit Clan against the Ice Demon Clan, and even the Shi Clan against the Demon Clan.
There was no strategy, only total chaos. Every alien race struck out at anything that wasn't their own kind without the slightest restraint.
Within moments, the pristine white snow was drenched in silver and golden blood, even staining the sky itself.
A [Chaos Oddity]—especially one with the power to link high-dimensional planes—held a value that defied imagination.
Inside the Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship, the alarm from the replicated Eye of Truth was loud enough to burst eardrums.
Song Chi watched the energy readings on the monitors skyrocket until, with a sharp "snap," the entire console exploded from the overload.
The twelve crystalline shards floating above Antarctica had fully materialized, leaving trails of rainbow-colored dimensional energy each time a facet shifted in the void.
This Chaos Oddity had reached its final state; it was now fully mature.
Consequently, the struggle within Origin Star grew even more savage. Although the Primordial Will of Origin Star prevented Eleventh and Twelfth Rank Mythical entities from entering personally, the danger level of the battlefield remained horrifying.
To claim this [Chaos Oddity], every faction revealed their hidden trump cards. Though the entities present were ranked up to the Tenth Rank, many of their strikes possessed the destructive force of Eleventh Rank energy levels.
At that moment, a voice rang out through the Seed of Torch chat group in their minds.
"Ji Heng, Greedy Wolf, we are withdrawing!"
Jiang Yuan’s voice was firm. Though he offered no explanation, Song Chi and Ji Heng trusted his judgment implicitly.
"Circulation Star Formation, switch to maximum output!"
The three acted as a single unit, pushing the star formation surrounding their warships to its absolute limit.
The thirty-six Bronze Divine Pillars flared with brilliant starlight, carving out a pocket of relative safety within the chaotic warzone.
Outside their shields, the world had devolved into a maelstrom of Laws and Rules. Incomprehensible attacks collided, generating energy tempests that warped the very spatial fabric of Origin Star.
Unlike the frenzied alien races outside, Song Chi and his allies remained perfectly composed. They understood the priceless nature of the [Dimension Anchor], but they also knew it was a cursed prize. If the Torch Civilization took it, it wouldn't be a blessing; it would mean eternal war for their entire civilization.
Knowing this, they chose to retreat early to avoid inviting total destruction.
Naturally, they intended to collect some "interest" before departing.
Beneath the heavens of the Extreme South Plate, the three Torch warships fought to exit the battlefield under the protection of the thirty-six Star Divine Pillars. As they moved, the hulls of the three vessels would occasionally pulse with a five-colored light.
Replica [Void Warehouse]
Replicate Mirror Image [Void Warehouse]
Replicate Clone [Void Warehouse]
These components were triggered repeatedly. Each time they activated, one of the high-rank alien corpses littering the ground would vanish.
Indeed, Song Chi and his team were seizing the chaos to scavenge high-rank alien remains.
They targeted nothing less than Ninth Rank Dominators, even snagging several Mythical Corpse forms. These remains were not only useful for refining Mythical Souls, Mythical Source Blood, and Dominant Origin Blood, but they often contained high-rank Oddities or rare Mineral Resources of immense worth.
Had it not been for this opportunity, the trio would not have waited here for centuries.
As for the [Chaos Oddity — Dimension Anchor], they never harbored any delusions of taking it.
A few hours later, Jiang Yuan spoke up again.
"That’s enough. Some of the aliens have noticed our movements. It’s no longer safe to stay—let's move out!"
Without a second thought, the three Torch Warships ignited their engines and roared away, piercing through the edge of the battlefield until they vanished beyond the horizon of Origin Star.
Meanwhile, the carnage on the extreme southern battlefield only intensified, showing no signs of ending. It was clear this chaotic war would rage on for a very long time.
