Above the ruins of the Divine Kingdom.
Gandaph collected a dozen divine personae shimmering in the void. These were the essence of the Heavenly Father, saturated with truth and immutable laws, the primary spoils from this fierce engagement.
He declared:
"This Fiery Fire Godhood, Ace, you may refine it into a unique artifact."
Fiery Fire was the most critical divine persona of the renowned Blood Fire Dominator.
"As for the bloodlines, the flow of war, let us seal them for now. Perhaps we can cultivate a few more Legendary Wizards from them. When a god perishes, all creation flourishes anew,"
Gandaph stated.
Ace acquired the [Spear of Blood and Fire]. It was an Ancient Divine Artifact, its might far surpassing the [Sun-breaking Divine Bow], comparable to a treasure of the highest caliber.
"I shall claim these divine weapons. When time permits, I will reforge them. Combined with amethyst, we shall reconstruct the wizard tower and equip it with additional divine weaponry. That should be sufficient."
Lord Victor proclaimed:"Blood Fire is vanquished. Our next target is the Sovereign of Ten Thousand Gold."
The Ten Thousand Gold Divine Status was of immense importance to him.
If he could refine it, he could swiftly ascend to the realm of a Ten-Ring Senior. Subsequently, advancing to Ten-Rings Perfection would also be significantly easier, thus laying a solid foundation for a future ascent into the Supreme.
After meticulously clearing the battlefield, three figures transformed into streaks of light and departed.
Millennia from now, this desolate site might evolve into a hallowed relic.
A testament to the history, chronicling the descendants' epic God Slaying.
...
Time, like a ceaseless river, flowed onward, while the sun and moon, like errant marbles, danced across the sky.
The constellations shifted, and the stars above gradually dimmed. Many of these were the remnants of self-proclaimed gods, the False Gods, and some belonged to even more ancient Star Gods.
The Furious Bull stumbled, collapsing with a ground-shaking roar, its mighty horns already shattered.
The Jade Rabbit agilely leaped over, landing beside the fallen beast, its eyes brimming with sorrowful tears.
"Kreno, you must rise," it urged.
The bull gasped, the vibrant glow in its eyes slowly receding.
It whispered:
"I am weary. Allow me to rest... Hera, once I am gone, place my remains within the Multidimensional Plane. My will and bloodlines shall decompose naturally, permeating the vast Universe.
Someday, we may meet again.
At that juncture, I may no longer bear the name Kreno.
Yet, that existence will still be me."
With these final words, the bull closed its eyes forever.
A Star God had fallen, an eternal sorrow descended, and the astral world itself mourned.
The Jade Rabbit conjured a Star Gate, carefully placing Kreno's lifeless body in a remote corner of the Multidimensional Plane. The world that once resided on the colossal beast's back disintegrated, vanishing into wisps of smoke.
The essence known as bloodlines dispersed into the boundless void.
Perhaps, after ages have passed, this Universe might give rise to a powerful, legendary bovine, a Mythical Creature, signifying a new form of rebirth for the bull, Kreno Ode.
Hera tenderly wiped away her tears.
Five hundred years had passed since the Heavenly Chopping War began. Of the thirty-six Star Gods, only twenty-four now remained; the other twelve had returned to the heavens, finding eternal repose.
Hera began to hum the Star God Ballad, rejoining the fray of the ongoing conflict.
...
In the year 5000 of the Nora Calendar, the final contingent of the Heavenly Chopping Army launched their assault into the Forest of Myriad Phenomena. Over five hundred formidable level-10 powerhouses from various Multidimensional Planes had amassed their forces at this location.
In their wake, the Star Wilderness lay utterly devastated.
Lesser Gods had either perished or surrendered.
Currently, approximately 400 Star Gods clung to existence.
Alongside them were about 350 Abyss Demons.
Fewer than four hundred beings could effectively contend with the 500 exceptionally strong individuals of the Heavenly Chopping Alliance.
The remaining forces were ensnared by the Taya Insect Race, slowly being consumed. The insect race's power continued to surge, holding the potential to become the second colossal entity, second only to Nora.
The insect race boasted over a hundred insect queens and more than a hundred distinct soldier species, each fulfilling specific roles. Despite their comparatively smaller numbers, each insect queen demanded a top-tier powerhouse to keep it in check.
Potent insect queens, capable of rivaling the power of the formidable Four Emperors, were not an uncommon sight.
Of course, the true terror lay not solely with the insect queens themselves, but with their astounding ability to rapidly propagate new insect species. By ceaselessly devouring organic matter, they could efficiently breed diverse insect strains. Their rate of expansion even outpaced the Mechanical School's creation of their mechanical constructs.
From the outset until the present, the number of insect queens had consistently remained far lower than the total population of the astral world.
However, they had created widespread chaos for a significant number of gods. Most astonishingly, the mortality rate among the insect queens was even lower than that of Nora's level-10 entities. Following the current trajectory, if they were to wait until Nora had resolved conflicts with the astral world and the abyss before confronting the insect race.
Nora's future wars would undoubtedly prove exceedingly challenging. The insect race's developmental speed was simply too rapid; even Nora could not match it. They exploited the Heavenly Chopping Alliance's preoccupation with the astral world's primary forces, engaging in various clandestine maneuvers, reaping the benefits of the conflict like fishermen, growing stronger with each passing day, and repeatedly provoking the Heavenly Chopping Alliance.
This relentless pressure had also created considerable difficulties for Nora.
For Nora.
Defeating the astral world and the abyss is nearing completion, with victory only a matter of time.
Confronting the insect race has now become a pressing matter.
Convening under the Chaos Emperor's leadership, the Supreme Council initiated another series of remote discussions. In a unanimous decision, they resolved to establish a preemptive encirclement of the insect queens. Specialized operatives would be deployed to infiltrate the battlegrounds between the insect race and Heavenly Father, waiting for the opportune moment to achieve a dual objective.
Should these plans falter, the utmost priority would be the eradication of the insect queens.
The divine beings currently pose a diminished threat; their numbers have dwindled to a mere third of their former strength. The Star Ancestor's realm is also nearing a critical decline.
An objective assessment and thorough analysis were conducted.
Nevertheless, the insect race continues to represent a more significant danger.
Naturally, to effectively counter the insect race, Nora requires several paramount combatants to assert control over the mother nest's consciousness. Consequently, the Netherworld Ancestor and his peers must be liberated from their current engagements.
The moment the Star Ancestor's realm crumbles and Levi breaches the abyss, the grand offensive against the insect race will commence. Nora will then confront three formidable opponents, engaging in a battle to the bitter end!
...
Within the Bottomless Abyss, specifically at Level 649.
A grim ecosystem, resembling the depths of Hell, has formed where Death Energy and demonic auras converge and intertwine. In ages past, this domain was under the dominion of a formidable Demon Lord Level powerhouse.
[Blood Prison Demon King Kalis]
Renowned as an adept in the Path of Death, possessing immense power, Kalis was once considered the apex of the abyss's death-attributed demons. However, during ancient times, he met his demise in a conflict against the Underworld.
