The Seventh Base

“Adolf.” Lin Xu of the Lin Clan looked toward the person speaking from the Abyss, clearly recognizing him.

“I didn’t expect anyone to know me.” Adolf smiled at the other: “Turns out it’s the traitor of the Lin Clan, no wonder.”

“The Abyss is indeed a place that harbors filth and evil. This Adolf was a notorious criminal during the Empire era. Now, do you intend to let these criminals join the Cosmic Federation and become members of the Cosmic Committee?” Lin Xu said coldly.

Adolf appeared young but was actually an old monster-level figure, famously rampant during the Empire era. His actions alarmed the Emperor, leading to a military crusade that captured and exiled him to the Abyss.

The Abyss harbors many such figures, who have now joined Lin Shou’s ranks.

“Though I am a criminal, I do not kill my own kin, unlike you degenerates.” Adolf responded with a cold smile.

“Who said the order of the Empire era has decayed, the Lin Clan’s actions are to sever ties with the Old Empire. Since even the Lin Clan’s betrayal is allowed entry into the Cosmic Federation, by your logic, aren’t all those from the Abyss merely criminals of a decrepit era? Shouldn’t they now be honored for their contributions to the Cosmic Federation, helping maintain today’s cosmic order?” Fernand argued.

He used their own logic against them, making the argument reasonable.

Furthermore, in the current situation, they weren’t at a disadvantage, and the Church had distanced itself from the Kales Empire. Other forces would also be wary of the Church, making it unlikely for this Cosmic Conference to control the entire Universe through the shape of the Cosmic Federation.

Disrupting this Cosmic Conference was their goal—preventing the successful establishment of the Cosmic Federation, hence denying them legitimacy.

If it needs to be established, then let all join, and who holds the authority remains uncertain.

The O’Brian Republic, the Abyss, the Coriade Star Domain, and the Tyr Star Domain forces are not allies, but the enemy of an enemy is a friend. In this struggle, their stance is aligned—just as the other side’s stance is unified—thus they can band together.

“The moment the Abyss army stepped out of the Abyss, their aim was to destroy everything in the Universe. Now, you conspire with the Abyss, you are all sinners of the Universe.” Church Saint Naga declared loudly, his body radiating Holy Light, maintaining a sacred presence.

“You think shedding light can mask your stench? What is your Church worth to dare judge the Abyss? Shut your filthy mouth.” A rough response came from a War General of the Abyss beside Adolf, though the Abyss had valued education in recent years, as an Abyss War General, they were crude at heart, despising the hypocrites of the Church who masquerade under the name of God for deceitful purposes.

“Buzz…” A blinding flash of light erupted, Saint Naga bathed in divine radiance, with the Light Sword manifesting, as he gazed, the sword shot straight toward the speaking Abyss War General.

A large hand reached out, grabbing the Light Sword, with a terrifying shrieking sound, the Light Sword dissipated under the grip. Wearing dark red battle armor like the Demon King of Hell, Satan stepped forward, disdainfully glanced at Naga, and said: “You are not enough alone, how many do you plan to bring today?”

He referred to the battle in the Abyss where the Lin Clan and Saint Tiya’s two peak Skywalkers fought him.

Upon hearing Satan’s words, Lin Langya of the Lin Clan and Tiga from Saint Tiya Star fiercely glanced and stepped forward simultaneously.

These were nearing Transcendent-level beings, as they stepped out, a terrifying storm enveloped the region, turning what had been a peace conference into a brewing conflict.

At this point, the Cosmic Federation was virtually defunct.

Yet a large-scale war was unlikely to occur. In the skies above Asgard, countless fleets were amassed, and within the conference venue were key figures from various forces.

If the power imbalance was vast, war might erupt; but the current scenario was such that no side could easily overpower the other, making the cost of war unmanageable for anyone.

This would not be the death of one or two, a conflict with airborne fleets could flatten Asgard, causing catastrophic devastation.

In that moment, countless gazes fell on Satan, especially from those by the coast, curious about the demon-like figure claiming the Church Saint Naga was inadequate.

Saint Naga, Lin Langya of the Lin Clan, Tiga from Saint Tiya Star—these are among the strongest under the Destroyer level, peak Skywalker warriors.

“If there’s a fight, count me in.” Seeing several stepping forward, a massive Heavenly God Race figure emerged from the Tyr Star Domain crowd, his eyes terrifying, imposing frame exuding immense pressure.

Heavenly God Race Ta Luo, possessing the purest bloodline, unmatched in Power, is also one of the strongest warriors under the Destroyer level.

These people were aware of each other’s existence, but many had not truly engaged in combat.

In different directions, people emerged one after another, each a legendary top-tier transcendents.

Ares O’Brian from the O’Brian Republic, Selle from the Kales Empire and many other top-tier figures.

In the sky, starships lit up with energy light, and outside the Asgard Planet, fleets were moving, all seemingly ready for battle. Even fleets from different forces had discovered each other’s presence, all on high alert.

At this moment, the entire Asgard Star was shrouded in terrifying clouds. Once war broke out, the consequences would be catastrophic.

On the sea platform, every major force had Destroyer-level figures present. They all exuded a faint aura but refrained from acting rashly. A battle among Destroyer-level figures would be too destructive; if they started, it might directly ignite a war among major forces, so they were all cautious.

Suddenly, the entire space fell silent, including the crowds along the coast.

A peace conference had evolved to this situation, and it was no longer certain if it could be controlled, yet all major top-tier forces were prepared for the outbreak of war. They never truly believed in ‘peace’.

An oppressive atmosphere enveloped the central area of Asgard, with Victoria standing among the crowd, feeling as though breathing itself had stopped, she was incredibly tense.

Perhaps Mr. Zeus was also among the crowd.

“The Abyss Land bred slaughter machines through cruel means and formed a slaughter army. Now, the Abyss King leads this army to come and subvert cosmic order,” spoke Church Elder Arthur in a loud voice, “In the face of the Abyss, all cosmic forces must rise against it. Those who align with the Abyss betray the universe and must be eradicated.”

His words fell, and the vast sky and earth were covered with holy light from the church’s direction as figures emerged, releasing holy light.

For a moment, this realm turned into a holy land, where the people of the church intended to purify worldly sins.

“The Cosmic Federation is driven by you. When you control the situation, you talk peace. Now that your crimes are exposed and no longer can deceive the world, you abandon peace for war,” Fernand’s voice was loud, resonating through this space, and he said, “It seems like no matter what, it’s always your say. Since that’s the case, on behalf of the O’Brian Republic, I declare that the Church is instigating cosmic war, attempting to subvert the universe, deceiving people in the name of God. Therefore, all cosmic forces must rise against it. From today, the O’Brian Republic will clear all church forces within the republic’s domain.”

Fernand was not impulsive; the church had already allied with the Kales Empire against them. Church fleets were part of the war, causing chaos on major planets in the republic to develop followers.

However, the O’Brian Republic was already battling the Kales Empire, constrained by the strength of the church, and unable to confront both major forces, hence never truly turning against them.

But this cosmic conference, the conflict was irreconcilable, completely tearing the veil aside.

Thus, there was no other choice, but to go to war.

“It looks like the O’Brian Republic is determined to ally with the Abyss to overthrow the universe,” Arthur said.

“We, Lin, don’t care about other matters for the time being, but Gaia and his people are ours,” said Lin Xu, his gaze falling on Gaia and Qiong. The target this time was obvious, he intended to capture Gaia and others, including Xu Mo, the descendant of the Emperor, must be caught to eliminate future threats.

The Emperor was unparalleled in his era, unmatched by anyone. Allowing Xu Mo to grow would be extremely dangerous. If he reached the level of the Emperor in the future, it would be disastrous for the Lin family.

Many figures stepped forward, yet the destroyers still didn’t move.

Once they acted, it might be earth-shattering, as this entire Sea Domain could be destroyed.

“It’s been years since I’ve stretched my bones,” said Adolf in the direction of the Abyss, shaking his head, looking towards the church’s people across. Living in the Abyss, under such harsh conditions, they feared nothing more than battle.

A destroyer-level aura spread out, and Adolf said, “How do you want to play?”

Whether it’s a destroyer-level or Skywalker-level battle, they would take it, even a fleet battle, no matter if it means all dying together, but these people might be reluctant to die, right?

Arthur’s gaze turned to the Lin family and the direction of Saint Tiya Star, saying, “We initially wanted to establish cosmic order through peaceful means, but they seem to refuse.”

“Then, let’s clean up,” the destroyer from Saint Tiya Star also radiated golden light.
