The Great Genetic Era Chapter 2362: An Accidental Quantum Storm (2)

The core motivation for Chuling, Yuan, and Hei Yang to strictly limit the number of Small Universe-levels was to solidify their authority and eradicate any erratic elements capable of mounting a rebellion. By logical extension, this suggests that a coalition of roughly 10 Small Universe-levels poses a credible threat to their collective standing.

If 10 Small Universe-levels could endanger the zenith power of Yuan, Hei Yang, and Chuling, how many would be required to threaten them once they are gravely wounded? Perhaps three, or maybe five?

Although the exact figure remains obscure, it is indisputable that a gathering of 10 Small Universe-levels would certainly suffice to eliminate a severely weakened Yuan.

So, what is the current strength of the Blue Star Alliance? With eight Muyas currently active in the conflict, including Qiao An, there are 14 Small Universe-levels identified on Blue Star. Conversely, based on intelligence attributed to Yuan, the Blue Star was thought to possess only about six.

Regardless of whether the Great Xi Clan harbors between three to seven hidden Small Universe-levels, the foundational intelligence from the Great Xi indicates the Blue Star Alliance commands 14 experts of that rank. Thus, once Yuan’s presence is unmasked, his fate is essentially sealed.

A mortally injured Yuan would surely be overwhelmed by the combined might of the Blue Star Alliance.

Current operational data shows that the Muyas-led strike force, comprised of Small Universe-level warriors, successfully targets an inhabited planet every seven days. They have already secured 65 of the Great Xi Clan's inhabited worlds.

With fewer than 150 inhabited worlds remaining, the Muya forces are on track to capture or breach the Great Xi mother planet, Planet Atlan, within a year, ultimately annihilating the Great Xi civilization.

Unless Yuan abandons all posturing to vanish into an uninhabited asteroid sector, detection is inevitable. By all accounts, Yuan’s time is limited to a one-year countdown.

But is this trajectory truly ordained?

Absolutely not!

If fate were sealed, there would be no reason for Xu Tui to force the Blue Star elites through such grueling cultivation and resource-heavy breakthroughs.

Yuan will certainly not await his demise passively. So what is his move? What does his ultimate counteroffensive entail?

Xu Tui, Cai Shaochu, Zhu Lang, An Xiaoxue, Qu Qingshan, and the Blue Star command staff have scrutinized this enigma. Yet, none of their simulated scenarios project even a 10% success rate. Essentially, every tactical response forecasted by Blue Star is destined for failure.

Would Yuan commit to a failed strategy? Emphatically, no! It suggests that the tactics deduced by Blue Star’s leadership—including Xu Tui and Cai Shaochu—are the wrong ones.

Yuan will surely retaliate in his wounded state, and it is highly likely to be a devastating strike.

What form will it take? The lack of data leaves them in the dark.

The unknown is the greatest terror. Blue Star now realizes their intelligence on Yuan is woefully inadequate. Unlike the historical conflict with Hei Yang and Chuling, where their strength limits were clearly defined prior to the outbreak of war, Yuan remains an enigma.

Yuan is unique; the frequency of their engagements has been too low. Almost no one at the current Small Universe level has actually engaged Yuan in direct combat, making his methods entirely unpredictable to the Blue Star.

How can one secure a flawless victory with a single strike? Xu Tui cannot conceive of it. Consequently, he chooses to maintain his current stance. With his existing power and the continued growth of Blue Star’s 14 Small Universe experts, could Yuan possibly dismantle them in a single blow? That is fundamentally impossible.

Therefore, Xu Tui bides his time. Perhaps the unrelenting Muya conquest of Great Xi worlds will finally flush Yuan out.

Time presses on.

Xu Tui remains hyper-active. Beyond facilitating the advancement of Blue Star elites within the three origin universes, he pushes his own capabilities to the limit, resulting in vast improvements in his personal strength.

On November 2nd, Bu Qingqiu successfully attained the Small Universe Realm within the Water Origin Universe.

On November 14th, Cai Shaochu, reaching the peak of the Nine Satellites Planetary realm, ascended to the Small Universe Realm on Ceres.

That same day, An Xiaoxue—long stagnant in her progression—leveraged the insight gained from observing Cai Shaochu to also break through. This was expected, given her countless private duels with Xu Tui. By November 19th, a distress signal arrived from Qiao An: they had fallen into a Great Xi ambush while assaulting Bahat, a vital stronghold near the Great Xi homeworld.

Two Small Universe-levels and over 1,000 elite Planetary realm warriors were annihilated. While the Great Xi could muster five Small Universe-level experts, they would normally struggle to defeat the Muya forces so rapidly. The total destruction was caused by a terrifying entity manifesting 64 energy wings, who immediately crippled a Muya Small Universe-level expert upon arrival.

It was Yuan!

Yuan had finally emerged.

Just as the Muya vanguard neared the homeworld of Bahat, Yuan struck. Xu Tui reacted within half an hour, arriving on Planet Bahat with the Blue Star elites to scour the region with his mind power for any trace of Yuan’s flight path.

Simultaneously, as Xu Tui materialized on Bahat, a quantum teleportation conduit to Mars’s new moon opened. In front of this gateway, columns of combat robots were circulating back to the New Moon for essential maintenance and defense.

They queued for transit through the channel.

Composed of physical matter without supernatural resonance, these robots typically transit without triggering quantum instability. A stable conduit allows for thousands of robots to pass simultaneously, representing Blue Star’s most reliable transport method, validated by thousands of prior successful missions.

But dziś, a disaster occurred.

After a robot with a damaged rear limb traversed the gate, a volatile quantum storm surged through the corridor. The resulting interference forced the channel into a 12-hour cooling period, halting all transit.

The commanding officer watched in bewilderment. A simple combat robot should never trigger such a massive quantum disturbance. It was fundamentally impossible.
