Global Era of Star trekking Chapter 1912 - 926: Direct Annihilation (Part 2)

The Father of the Sand Sea, alongside three other transcendent entities from the Chaos Divine Land, managed to momentarily alleviate the relentless assault, stabilizing their rapidly declining auras. They observed the two engaged White Bone Giants and the stealthily lethal Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong in the distance, their gazes filled with a complex mix of emotions. It was astounding that a mere Human from the Shattered Starry Sea had, by himself, managed to turn the tide of this seemingly hopeless conflict. However, the reality was that this was only a temporary reprieve. The Abyssal forces still commanded the presence of eight transcendent Demon Gods, and the might of the Chaos Wonders remained undiminished. The two newly emerged transcendent Heart Stealing Demons, having recovered from their initial shock, had now fixed their chilling gazes back upon the battlefield, seemingly preparing to unleash an even more devastating offensive. Meanwhile, the condition of the four transcendent beings from the Chaos Divine Land continued its steady decline. Time was slipping away rapidly.

The battlefield's equilibrium proved to be precarious and fleeting. Despite the heroic efforts of the two White Bone Giants in engaging the Devil Race and their demonic cohorts, providing the allied transcendents a crucial moment to recuperate, the Abyssal forces swiftly regained their composure following the initial surprise. The two recently revealed transcendent Heart Stealing Demons shifted from mere interference to a joint, more unpredictable assault, unleashing a bizarre Spirit Storm. Invisible waves of spiritual energy surged towards the Eternal Ancestor and the Mother of Ten Thousand Machines, who were already in a weakened state, causing their newly stabilized auras to fluctuate violently once more. Although the Sky-splitting God King received aid, easing his pressure slightly, he remained in a precarious state, barely able to maintain his undefeated status against an opponent wielding the Dimension Anchor and the constant threat of surprise attacks from a heart-stealing demon. Launching counter-attacks became exceedingly difficult. Yet, the most dire situation remained with the Father of the Sand Sea and the three other transcendent beings from the Chaos Divine Land. Their auras depleted rapidly, akin to a deflating balloon, their very forms beginning to appear insubstantial. The Abyssal Will of the Returning Ruins Abyss acted like the thickest mire, ceaselessly corroding their connection to the Divine Land's source, attempting to forcibly eject them. "Everyone, we... can barely hold on!" exclaimed the Father of the Sand Sea, his voice laced with exhaustion and reluctance, his immense sea of shifting sand now barely sufficient to shield himself. The Ancestor Fire enveloping the Heaven-Burning Ancestor flickered weakly, and he declared with gravity, "Our source is on the verge of exhaustion; if we do not retreat now, the four of us may soon lose our transcendent status!" The other two transcendent beings from the Divine Land remained silent, but their wavering forms spoke volumes. The morale of the alliance, which had been briefly uplifted by the reinforcements, plummeted once more, facing the imminent departure of their powerful allies. If they were to leave, the eight transcendent demon gods of the Abyssal side would be free to attack the remaining alliance transcendents without restraint, and then... Song Chi, controlling the two White Bone Giants, felt a rising anxiety within. He could sense that the refinement process within the Ruins Market had reached its final critical juncture; that single drop of transcendent essence blood was moments away from completion. However, it was clear that the Father of the Sand Sea and the others could not wait any longer. "Hold on for just a little longer! Just a moment more!" Song Chi's will roared, urging the two White Bone Giants to launch an even more ferocious, all-out assault, striving to buy those final seconds for the Ruins Market's advancement. Above the Ruins Market, the Vault of Heaven housed the Dao Origin Totem Pole, which shimmered with the Light of Chaos. The mythical power, previously at the Eleventh Rank Peak, now surged towards the early Twelfth Rank under the intense burning of the source totem pillar. Though its duration was severely limited, with a five-thousand-year cooldown, its activation was entirely justified. Under its blessing, the refinement speed of the transcendent Flame Demon's body accelerated significantly. Finally, just as the four transcendent beings from the Chaos Divine Land were about to withdraw, Song Chi succeeded in refining a single drop of transcendent essence blood. Deep within the Zhu Tian Ruins Market, a droplet of dark red transcendent essence blood, seemingly alive with the cosmic dance of life and death of mythical stars, solidified, emanating flawless and complete Dao Rhythms. "Now is the time!" Song Chi's true form unleashed a silent, potent roar. He took control of this precious drop of transcendent essence blood and hurled it like a stone into a tranquil lake, causing it to instantly integrate into the core source of rules within the Zhu Tian Ruins Market. The Zhu Tian Ruins Market officially began its ascent towards Level 110. Buzz—!!! The entire Zhu Tian Ruins Market convulsed violently.

An immense energy materialized from the void, causing the boundaries of the Ruins Market to expand at a visible, rapid pace. What was once a grand and towering realm became even vaster and more magnificent, its barrier runes pulsing with chaotic luminescence as if imbued with life.

An aura, far grander and more profound than before, descended like a reawakening Creator God upon the market's center, radiating outwards into the Endless Void.

At this moment, the Eleventh Rank Zhu Tian Ruins Market finally shattered its crucial bottleneck, ascending to the Eleventh Rank.

Almost concurrently with the Ruins Market's advancement, Song Chi clearly perceived a significant, qualitative improvement in the 'Power of Mythical Status' granted to him.

From the previous Eleventh Rank Peak, it had resolutely advanced to the true… Twelfth Rank Transcendent Level!

This was no mere quantitative increase, but a leap in life's hierarchy, a fundamental alteration in the authority of the rules.

Should the support of the [Dao Origin Totem Pole] be added…

Song Chi's eyes gleamed with an unprecedented fervor.

Bottomless Abyss, Return Ruins Abyss Battlefield.

As time marched on, the protective shroud, purchased at the cost of shattering the Chaos Wonder [Frozen Heart], had weakened to its very limit. The Abyssal Will's immense repulsive force once again enveloped the Father of the Sand Sea and the other three Divine Land Transcenders, their forms gradually becoming spectral. They stood on the precipice of being forcibly ejected back to Chaos Divine Land.

However, the Abyss sought to accelerate this expulsion. The three formidable Transcendent Demon Gods unleashed overwhelming demonic flames from their bodies, transforming into destructive torrents that surged directly towards the four faintly flickering beings, including the Father of the Sand Sea.

Their objective was clear: to strike their weakened foes, to extinguish their lives. Before the four could fully return, they aimed to inflict grievous harm, hoping to leave even one or two behind to decisively secure victory.

Witnessing this, the Sky-splitting God King, Eternal Ancestor, and others were filled with righteous fury. They yearned to intervene but were inextricably locked in combat with their own adversaries, unable to break free.

Just as the four were about to face a fatal blow—

"Roar!!"

The two White Bone Giants, previously engaged with the demons and the Devil Race, suddenly emitted a silent roar. Disregarding the attacks from their rear, their colossal skeletal frames accelerated with astonishing speed, like two inverted celestial meteors, crashing violently into the three Demon Gods advancing on the Divine Land Transcenders.

"Courting death!" The Transcendent Demon sneered, shedding its original target to intercept. In its estimation, these two subordinate Transcendent puppets posed no true threat; it alone could handle them.

Yet, just as its Demon Claw was about to connect with the foremost White Bone Giant—

The Gloomy Blue Soul Fire within the White Bone Giant's eye sockets blazed with extreme intensity, unleashing a heart-wrenching wave of destruction.

Furthermore, the White Bone Giant behind it mirrored this action.

"No! They intend to…" The sneer vanished from the Transcendent Demon's face, replaced by stark terror.

Regrettably, it was far too late.

Without offering any chance for reaction, in the instant the two White Bone Giants closed the distance—

Boom!

Boom!

Two incandescent bursts of light, akin to nascent Mythical Stars, erupted at the core of the Return Ruins Abyss. This was a complete, self-sacrificial detonation of their origins, skeletal structures, soul fires, and all inherent rules by these two Twelfth Rank Transcendent existences.

The resulting destructive energy engulfed the leading Transcendent Demon like a raging, abyssal tide.

"No——!!!"

The Transcendent Demon managed only a brief, desperate cry before its demonic form disintegrated piece by piece, annihilated within endless torrents of osseous destruction, its incorruptible demon soul obliterated into nothingness.

Meanwhile, the other two Transcendent Demons hurtling towards the quartet, though not directly within the self-destructing cores' epicenter due to their distance, were still struck by the ensuing wave of annihilation energy. It crashed against their demonic bodies like billions of bone-scraping steel knives.

"Wuu——!"

Accompanied by piercing shrieks, the seemingly indestructible demonic bodies of the two Demons were rent open with innumerable gaping wounds. Their foul demonic blood cascaded downwards like waterfalls, their auras drastically diminished.

This sudden, cataclysmic turn of events plunged the entire battlefield into a profound, stunned silence once more.
