I Truly Am The Villian Chapter 2474 - 2473: The Banquet Begins, the Invasion Commences

Receiving the invitation, the first to react were six major worlds.

A powerhouse from Madman Star saw the invitation and, remembering previous conflicts with Xu Zimei, immediately tore the invitation to pieces.

He sneered, "Since he doesn't want to cooperate with us, what's the point of this invitation?"

"Don't act rashly, we don't know his intentions, but we should still go and see.

If we could disrupt this banquet, that would be best," someone beside him advised.

On the other hand, in the Demonic Spirit World, an authority figure directly rejected the invitation upon seeing it.

"The major worlds in the Extreme East are already too many; we do not wish to see these resources further divided.

Tell your master, the Demonic Spirit World does not welcome him."

Meanwhile, in the True Void World, their leader was incredibly welcoming.

Not only did they entertain the messenger but also solemnly stated they would definitely attend.

Realm Sea Star's leader also clearly indicated they would attend.

The amusing part is that their people actually tried to bribe the messenger for more information about the Divine Continent's internal affairs.

As of now, the Divine Continent is largely unaware of the cosmic events, with most knowledge coming from King Qingzhi.

The other worlds in the universe are also unfamiliar with the Divine Continent.

Regarding this suddenly emerged large world, they are in the dark.

Usually, whether a world emerges through devouring others or the Cosmic Trial, there is a pattern to follow.

Only the Divine Continent.

Borrowing the Nine Domains World's husk, it transformed.

When it appeared, it was already a large world.

It reached a remarkably dangerous level.

This has made everyone quite wary of the Divine Continent.

Besides these four large worlds, the other two, Slaughter World and Curse Bizarre Star.

After receiving the invitation, they didn't give a definite reply.

But the messenger didn't dare to ask more questions or linger in these two worlds.

The atmosphere in these worlds is quite peculiar.

In the Slaughter World, people seem like tireless killing machines.

There is no fairness to speak of in this world.

No order at all.

If someone desires another person or covets a treasure, they will just seize it.

This is a world where only the strong are revered.

Each generation's leader is titled the King of Slaughter.

This position comes from countless battles.

As the saying goes, 'One general succeeds over a thousand bones.'

Moreover, the leadership in Slaughter World is frequently replaced.

Because the King of Slaughter must face many challenges daily.

Compared to Slaughter World's ferocity and madness, Curse Bizarre World feels extraordinarily silent.

Even deathly silent.

The entire world is shrouded in darkness.

This world belongs to a broken one.

Without the sun, nothing can grow.

Yet in such a world, humans certainly can't survive.

Only the bizarre and curse spirits find it appealing.

Hence, the universe is mysterious.

The species constructed and worlds formed, each has its uniqueness.

But the messenger felt uncomfortable in this world, so he hurriedly left after delivering the message.

Xu Zimei soon learned of the situation.

Among the six major worlds, aside from the Demonic Spirit World, the other five haven't given a clear rejection.

It's highly likely they will attend.

As for the Demonic Spirit World, considering the inevitable clash over the Cosmic Mine, Xu Zimei is unworried of their rejection.

The Demonic Spirit World is the closest to the Divine Continent.

Only separated by one medium-sized world.

And almost all the medium-sized worlds Xu Zimei invited have agreed to come.

It seems they neither want to come nor dare to refuse the Divine Continent.

When invited by a large world, they dare not refuse.

...…

After determining the banquet's date.

The Divine Continent began manufacturing aerospace battleships on a grand scale.

A month later, three days before the banquet began.

Hundreds of aerospace battleships carrying countless strongmen from the Divine Continent set off for the Elken Basin.

Normally, building hundreds of aerospace battleships in a month is almost impossible.

But Xu Zimei halted all technological research in the Divine Continent, focusing solely on aerospace battleships.

The materials were supplied as needed.

Nearly in a blitz manner, hundreds of aerospace battleships were crafted.

With these emergency aerospace carriers ready, there's no need for such urgency in the future.

Around thirty thousand people headed to the Elken Basin.

Led by Comprehenders of the Dao, with the weakest among them being Dao Fruit Powerhouses.

This time, Xu Zimei was serious.

If the destruction of the Giant World shocked countless small and medium-sized worlds.

Then this Cosmic Mine raid is a full-on collision with large worlds, the Divine Continent initially revealing its ferocity.

Xu Zimei did not leave with the aerospace battleships.

He knows seizing the Cosmic Mine isn't a battle resolved in one strike.

Both sides must engage back and forth to settle the score.

So Xu Zimei intends to reveal himself in the decisive final strike.

Other times, he lets his subordinates handle it.

As a leader, you must trust your subordinates' capabilities.

Otherwise, overseeing everything personally is exhausting and solves nothing.

...…

In the following days, Xu Zimei began inspecting the banquet preparations.

This banquet isn't exceptionally luxurious or grand but must showcase the Divine Continent's unique traits.

Such as items exclusive to the Divine Continent, not found in other worlds.

This is crucial.

Because it relates to the Divine Continent's future trade.

Xu Zimei also has a list on hand.

Marking worlds near the Divine Continent.

They will be the Divine Continent's primary trade partners initially.

As the saying goes, distant relatives aren't as good as close neighbors.

...…

Three days later, the Divine Continent was bustling with activity.

First is the Cosmic Mine.

Xu Zimei received news that after entering the Elken Basin, the Divine Continent's army caught the Demonic Spirit World off-guard.

The Demonic Spirit World didn't have much prepared in the Elken Basin.

They arrogantly believed no one would dare seize their territory.

And a mutual understanding existed among various large worlds.

Yet, they underestimated the Divine Continent.

Xu Zimei invaded the Elken Basin bluntly and unreasonably.

He disregarded mutual understandings and implicit rules among worlds.

He thoroughly disrupted this star system's dynamics.
