Chapter 244: Chapter 167 The Monster of Planet Blue Star Lands on Legendary Shadow_1
Divine Lord Civilization, Central Divine Realm.
A metal construction, like a divine cathedra, floated in the boundless starry sky.
The contemporary Divine Lord sat in the center of the cathedra, and with the enhancement of his mech, his gaze could perceive every move of numerous galaxies around him.
He could also connect to the divine realm’s network through the cathedra, form spiritual light spheres, and appear anywhere in the Central Divine Realm at any time.
Most importantly, the cathedra was constantly feeding back power to him, enhancing his very being—
As long as the cathedra was not decayed, he could possess eternal life.
At that moment, he was using the massive temporary computational power from the divine realm network to continually absorb various kinds of information nutrients, manipulating a vast number of mechanically modified mechas to enrich his own foundation.
A small portion of his thoughts detached to ponder over matters regarding the [Enigmatic Mecha Pilot].
“Because of that Fire Transmitter brat from Planet Blue Star, Ancient Eon and Bluegreen Deity have increased the activity level of Purgatory.”
“As a result, they might discover the matters of the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot at any moment.”
“The longer the night, the more dreams occur; I need to think of a way to expedite the process.”
“Moreover, that Enigmatic Mecha Pilot is a false Fire Transmitter and might not develop according to the plan…”
“I have to make several preparations.”
Thinking this, the contemporary Divine Lord couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.
Within the abyss, if one were to deviate from the [Abyss Levels], the exchange of civilizations would become extremely difficult.
Even the ancient civilizations of Primordial Fire, reincarnation, and others, couldn’t easily cross the abyss to find traces of other civilizations—
Not because they couldn’t do it, but because they didn’t dare to.
It was like wanderers who barely survived by relying on a campfire in a cave during the frigid winter night.
When a civilization wanted to search for traces of other civilizations, it had to step out of the cave and into the cold night.
During this process, no one could guarantee they would be able to find their intended target.
Nor could they ensure they wouldn’t encounter ferocious beasts, blizzards, or other terrible calamities in the night!
The calamities encountered in this situation might be incredibly weak.
Or they might be even more powerful and terrifying than an ancient civilization!
And with the existing enemies, even the mightiest civilizations could potentially head towards destruction in such risky circumstances.
Therefore, the older the civilization, the more conservative and cautious they became.
Based on this.
Many Fire Plunderer civilizations could only use the effects of Fire Transmitter traits to render other civilizations obsolete, instead of directly dispatching powerful mecha pilots to conquer, suppress, and completely domesticate them.
The civilizations within the abyss were able to grow in a comparatively independent manner, steadily increasing in strength.
The same was true for the Divine Lord Civilization.
As one of the three great level 8 civilizations of the Purgatory level, the Divine Lord Civilization was actually much younger than Ancient Eon—
Even, if one were to trace back a few hundred civilizations, Ancient Eon was the “Fire Transmitter Ancestor” of the Divine Lord Civilization.
In this situation, the Divine Lord Civilization wasn’t strangled in the cradle but managed to grow successfully and contend with Ancient Eon.
It was thanks to the unknown and hazardous nature of the abyss.
But as for rules,
When they work to one’s advantage, one often feels it’s only natural and there’s nothing to be grateful for.
When they become an impediment, they seem incredibly irritating, making one feel absolutely disgusted.
The contemporary Divine Lord had such thoughts as he sighed inwardly.
“If it weren’t for the protection mechanisms brought about by the dangers of the abyss…”
“I could directly travel to those civilizations, searching for the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot.”
“Including that Jiang Chen from Planet Blue Star, who wouldn’t have a chance to jump up at all—I could simply squash him and be done with it.”
“What a pity.”
Unable to directly carry out a raid, he could only resort to other methods to interfere and influence.
The situation in the Purgatory level was a bit special; it was very difficult to succeed with brute force tactics.
The contemporary Divine Lord continuously searched through various modules, traits, mecha pilot talents…
Trying to expedite the process of finding the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot in any way possible.
But the results were minimal.
After all, that Enigmatic Mecha Pilot had only appeared once.
The divine prodigy Ying Tian, who had interacted with him, was killed outright and reborn, effectively severing the causal link—
Even if you use divination, derivation, and prediction, you need a medium to work with!
The same applied to Jiang Chen from Planet Blue Star.
Yano treated Jiang Chen as the future of Gaia Civilization and forbade the few informed outsiders from revealing any information about Jiang Chen to the public, let alone to Fire Plunderers.
The Divine Lord Civilization’s knowledge of Jiang Chen was limited to the [name] and [clearing the Legendary Shadow].
Beyond that, whether it was his actual strength, talent, preferences, combat methods…
They knew nothing at all.
A clever cook cannot cook without rice.
Even the smartest person, given so little information, what could they conclude?
Without a god’s-eye view, even if they thought of something, it would just be wild speculation, unsupported by any evidence.
It was for this reason that the Divine Lord Civilization and Ancient Eon had been bluffing for so long without making any substantial moves.
Both sides were waiting.
Waiting for the day this prodigious talent who stirred up the storm would truly reveal himself.
However, none of the civilizations in the abyss expected,
They did not wait for the prodigy to appear.
Instead, they received a clearance record.
[Purgatory Asura]
[Level: Two]
[Difficulty: 7th Rank]
[Clearer: Civilization of Planet Blue Star, Jiang Chen.]
“?”
The contemporary Divine Lord was still processing large amounts of information.
Suddenly, he received this newly uploaded message through the divine realm network, causing his thoughts to freeze for an instant.
When he touched the Abyss Rune and verified the authenticity of the message via the Legendary Shadow interface, his mind was shocked.
“I was just saying…”
“You actually cleared a 7th Rank??!”
In that moment, his vast train of thought was momentarily disturbed, resulting in the cathedra’s endless energy source malfunctioning and some of the energy leaking out.
It was as if a supernova had exploded, a surging energy released in an instant, rapidly spreading around under the influence of an enigmatic force.
Numerous star systems near the cathedra saw planet after planet inhabited by living creatures destroyed under the torrential energy, turning countless beings into dust.
It was at this very moment that time came to a halt.
In the boundless expanse of space, it was as though a bell rang out.
A massive clock appeared above the cathedra, its hands began to reverse, and the raging energy flowed backward.
The destroyed inhabited planets and obliterated creatures swiftly reshaped and returned to their previous state.
Eventually, the dispersed energy returned to the cathedra, and everything seemed as if nothing had happened.
Only the current Divine Lord’s face was extremely unsightly.
It was just a piece of news that made him lose control of his power for an instant…
And it was too damn explosive.
The difficulty of the 7th Rank at the [Abyss Levels] was a full ten thousand times strength disparity!
This was for their level 8 civilization…
No, forget level 8, even level 9 or 10 civilizations might not be qualified to challenge a ten thousand times strength!
Not to mention, Jiang Chen’s victory was not over an ordinary 7th Rank overlord.
It was a high-level overlord, a Legendary Asura of Infinite Purgatory!
This was already a disparity of seventy thousand times in strength!
Moreover, Jiang Chen was supposed to be the weakest “original generation.”
???
Are you sure this isn’t a dream?
The Divine Lord’s face looked incredibly grim.
Jiang Chen’s defeat of the high-level legendary overlord at the 6th Rank, the beacon of hope for their civilization that could match the level of a level 8 civilization once he grew.
This wasn’t much for the Divine Lord Civilization.
After all, this was his own level of strength.
But what about defeating a high-level legendary overlord at the 7th Rank?
What level of civilization’s hope would he be once he grew up?
At the same level, wouldn’t he be able to beat him easily?
What’s more important was…
Even if he found that Enigmatic Mecha Pilot and obtained the BUG of Fire Transmitter traits.
Here’s the problem—
Is it the speed of civilization potential consolidation and upgrading that’s fast.
Or is it the speed of a mecha pilot’s promotion that’s fast?
By the time, the Divine Lord Civilization hasn’t upgraded to a level 9 civilization, Jiang Chen might already be able to beat a level 9 or even a level 10 civilization.
What then?
“…No worries, we have the Abyss Protection Mechanism!”
“Even if he rapidly grows under the protection of Ancient Eon Civilization, he can’t easily cross the abyss and come to our Divine Lord Civilization.”
“As long as I get the BUG of Fire Transmitter traits, there’s still hope for a comeback.”
“Just like the Ancient Eon Civilization of the past…”
“Didn’t they initially want to suppress our Divine Lord as well?”
“In the end, we still caught up with them!”
“It’s just a repetition of the situation!”
At this moment, the current Divine Lord actually felt thankful for the dangers of the abyss.
Moreover, his desire for the Enigmatic Mecha Pilot grew even stronger.
If that Enigmatic Mecha Pilot previously represented the future of Divine Lord Civilization, representing the possibility for Divine Lord Civilization to stand shoulder to shoulder with the ancient civilization.
Then now, he has directly become the lifeline of the Divine Lord Civilization.
He must be firmly grasped in his hands.
Otherwise, under the combined pressure of Ancient Eon and Planet Blue Star, Divine Lord Civilization will sooner or later decline, even walking towards destruction!
“Enigmatic Mecha Pilot…”
“I must have you!”
…
In Bluegreen Deity Civilization, the hopefuls saw the news and fell silent for a moment.
After that, the emotional fluctuation spread out.
“…The Divine Lord Civilization must be punished!”
“They actually want to corrupt the will of our Bluegreen Deity Civilization with resource benefits, indeed a despicable and evil existence!”
“Pity that, although our Bluegreen Deity Civilization lacks the Fire Transmitter traits, we do have the Heart of Fire Transmission.”
“We will absolutely not be bewitched by the evil civilization.”
“Someone go to the Purgatory level and make public the despicable acts of the Divine Lord Civilization, and declare our stance!”
…
In Ancient Eon Civilization, the heart of the hopeful was completely filled with joy.
Jiang Chen actually cleared the 7th Rank Legendary Shadow and defeated the Legendary Asura?
Keep in mind that Infinite Purgatory was the enemy in the strife against the three great civilizations, and the Purgatory Asura was the formidable enemy Ancient Eon Civilization had to face.
No one was more aware of the terror of that Legendary Asura than the hopeful of Ancient Eon Civilization.
His tremendous power was not something that could be reflected by mere numbers.
Seemingly, he was just a high-level overlord with a 7th Rank strength of seven hundred million.
But in the eyes of the hopeful of Ancient Eon Civilization, his real combat strength was definitely over one billion, a true Peak Legendary!
Being able to conquer him, Jiang Chen was already enough to defeat all 7th Rank Legendary within the Purgatory level!
“Excellent excellent excellent…”
“He must be well cultivated, the Explosive Kill Asura, the Explosive Kill Fire Plunderer!”
“This is the future of our Fire Transmission Civilization!”
…
In Gaia Civilization, Senior Yano.
“Ah?”
…
In Planet Blue Star Civilization, Jiang Chen.
