Chapter 1352 - 1338: The Past of the Scorching Sun

Tai Mai Ancient Tree and Ring Snake.

Both were once named entities of the Seven Coils.

As former colleagues, they should have quite a bit of understanding of each other. For instance, what species Ring Snake belongs to, his weaknesses, and abilities.

These things.

Should be crystal clear.

Facing Baiyu’s inquiry, Tai Mai replied solemnly, "I am not very clear about Ring Snake’s innate abilities, but he is a stone shell species, not a creature like you.

This is a fundamental difference in life form.

Look at his body, although he has transformed into stone, scattered into countless pieces, he has not actually died. Within each piece of stone, his life essence is contained. Ordinary enemies face this move and are basically helpless.

Because the stone shell species’ body is extremely hard.

It is impossible to kill him in a short time.

Now Ring Snake knows that his strength is inferior to his opponent, so he directly scattered his body, transforming into countless stars and raindrops to escape. As long as one piece of stone escapes, he can continuously regenerate.

This is the stone shell species.

Like a cockroach, it is hard to kill.

If it weren’t for being targeted by Divine Spirits in the past and offending the Gold race, the stone shell species wouldn’t have gone extinct."

Tai Mai Ancient Tree said with a sigh.

Baiyu stared at the battlefield intently, watching this guy turn into countless stone pieces, imagining what method Ai Wei might rely on to kill him.

However.

Ai Wei did not pursue him at this moment.

Instead, she allowed him to flee relentlessly.

"Not going to chase?"

Baiyu asked in confusion.

Tai Mai Ancient Tree’s voice was calm: "Perhaps not chasing is the best choice. Pursuing him would only be a waste of effort. This guy is very strong. One strike severely wounded Ring Snake, leaving him near death. In the coming period, Ring Snake won’t be able to cause any major disruptions, even if he wishes to.

In this way.

He can’t interfere with her plans, which is almost as good as if he were dead.

After all, once the Great Sun resurrects, no one in this world will be able to resist Him, making any enemies irrelevant."

Baiyu said gravely, "You know about the Second Dawning too?"

"Yes, it’s a prophecy from the gods, and from the Great Sun himself."

Tai Mai Ancient Tree explained, "The Great Sun, at first birth, came from the radiance representing the start of the universe, embodying all things. Upon descending, He became the most powerful entity in existence.

The most formidable Divine Spirit.

However.

He did not possess personal consciousness, or His consciousness was akin to a human child, purely instinctual.

Such a Great Sun.

Could maintain cosmic peace for a short period, but in the long run, would undoubtedly breed countless calamities and possibly infinite threats, capable of destroying the universe.

Therefore.

The gods ultimately decided.

Let the Great Sun be reborn.

This task will be carried out personally by the Daytime Furnace, who holds the Law of Recasting, and only He can split the Great Sun, kill Him, and bring Him back to life.

However.

During the process of killing, some problems arose.

Resulting in the Great Sun not being able to return immediately, and dragging on until now. But at this point, the inevitable trend is that the Great Sun’s return is certain.

So you understand why she didn’t continue pursuing him.

She probably has other matters, right now it’s just about ensuring an unstable element is eliminated. In the coming days, the people of the Great Church will continuously remove these hidden dangers to ensure the Great Sun’s resurrection has no issues."

Tai Mai Ancient Tree explained.

Baiyu took a deep breath, realizing this is the case.

It seems Ai Wei indeed just aims to wound them, making them incapable of any interference, and doesn’t truly want to kill the opponent. After all, injuring someone like Ring Snake severely is easy, but actually killing him is extremely difficult.

In the following days.

Ai Wei engaged in relentless astral travel.

Sending all accompanying starships through Spirit Realm travel, making it appear as a terrifyingly large and dark fleet.

And in these days.

They passed several planets, where Ai Wei identified a few, either agents placed by the Evil God or followers of the deceased Divine Spirits.

Though countless years have passed.

Their strength has not grown significantly, generally remaining at the level of Demigods. The reason being, firstly, the innate limitations. Regardless of what creature, once you reach the Demigod level, ascending further, awakening divinity, igniting Divine Fire, forming Divine Format, is extremely difficult.

Each step is like a divine punishment.

During this stage, mere effort won’t suffice; opportunities, luck, and talent are indispensable, and having all these requires vast resources and lengthy time.

Otherwise.

It’s impossible to advance any step, remaining a Demigod for life.

Thus.

These followers of the Evil God, although they are long-lived entities, have hidden in human society over the years without much cultivation.

Fearing the gaze of mighty humans would expose their whereabouts.

When Ai Wei acted, they almost had no ability to resist, especially facing Ai Wei who was on the verge of becoming a Divine Spirit.

It was essentially a dimensionally reduced strike.

After a series of consecutive battles.

Ai Wei led the group to the Chaos Mother Star, the largest planet in the Chaotic Star Realm and its center.

However.

By the time they arrived, the Chaos Mother Star was already engulfed in war.

The parties involved.

Turned out to be the Star Realm Army and Chaos Mother Star’s local troops.

The Star Realm Army was uniformly coordinated by the Imperial Headquarters, while the planet’s local defense forces were controlled solely by the planet’s Governor, in other words, the planet’s leader.

Typically.

The planet’s forces couldn’t possibly resist the Star Realm Army; they were not on the same level at all.

However.

Now, these two parties were fighting fiercely.

Moreover, the Star Realm Army wasn’t overwhelming or destroying the opponent, which was extremely strange.

Approaching the planet.

Baiyu then discovered that the local troops were fully mutated, with various beast organs sprouted on their bodies, such as half-birdmen with wings, turtle-men with shells.

Had it not been for their Imperial standard weapons and gear.

Baiyu wouldn’t have recognized them at all.

Their ability to fight the Star Realm Army effectively was evidently due to their demonized bodies.

And the cause of their demonization.

Must be the Evil God, or something related to the Evil God.

During this time of the Great Sun’s impending resurrection, these Evil Gods certainly can’t remain complacent, for once the Great Sun resurrects, they will be forever unable to return from the Void Realm.
