Chapter 960 - 320: The Return of the Insect Catastrophe
Blue Star, it’s gone.
It just disappeared from the stands, out of thin air!
"What happened?!" Seeing this scene, Han Zhan had a sinking feeling in his heart, suddenly sensing something amiss.
From the beginning, he had a vague sense of unease, always feeling four consecutive losses of Yao Black were too unrealistic, worrying that something unexpected might occur.
Now, the unexpected has really happened.
And, it’s an event entirely beyond what he imagined and can endure.
If Blue Star was stolen from the protection of the antique artifact [Battle of the Gods],
then what’s the point of continuing this gods’ battle?
Thinking of this, Han Zhan suddenly raised his eyes, looking toward the stands opposite.
Seeing that the bronze long table was still there, along with the five other Creator God figures, he slightly relaxed.
At least, the opponents have not escaped the antique artifact’s constraints, still bound within the [Battle of the Gods].
"It must be that the Creator God of Yao Black found a loophole in the rules."
"But their limit was only transferring Blue Star from the absolutely safe stands to outside the antique artifact."
"We will be fine as long as we can win this gods’ battle."
Fu Xi analyzed aloud.
"Rather than worry about them now, it’s better to prepare for the next battle quickly."
"Winning the fifth battle will end the Battle of the Gods and send Yao Black into the River of Eternal Darkness."
Han Zhan nodded slightly, temporarily suppressing the irritation in his heart.
The sudden change of Blue Star momentarily disrupted the rhythm, but the gods’ battle must continue.
"For the next five battles, we cannot predict the opponent’s lineup; we can only rely on intuition."
"So, for the fifth battle, our side’s contestant is..."
Han Zhan paused here, glancing at the crowd.
"Emperor Haotian."
...
Blue Star.
When the image of Shennong defeating his opponent appeared in the sky, all the citizens of Blue Star erupted in cheers once again.
Victory!
Another victory!
With four victories, just one more is needed, Blue Star can avert the calamity of the apocalypse and succeed in defying fate!
How can this not excite people?!
But just then, the live broadcast image of the battlefield in the sky suddenly disappeared.
Moreover, Blue Star seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, undergoing a subtle tremor.
The ordinary people of Blue Star were cheering joyfully, not noticing the slight disturbance.
Only Lin Jingxuan received the latest feedback through Heaven Net monitoring.
Blue Star has left the stands.
Its reappearance was not in some other location, but back in its original Blue Star Star Domain!
Under an unknown force, Blue Star left the absolutely safe stands of the [Battle of the Gods], exposed in the Endless Star Sea.
Lin Jingxuan instantly deployed nanomachines into the Endless Star Sea.
The nanomachines responsible for detecting cosmic dynamics quickly fed back the monitoring situation.
"Luckily, Yao Black has not appeared in the Star Sea."
"They should still be bound by the rules, trapped within the antique artifact[Battle of the Gods]."
"However, we can’t be careless."
This method of silently ’stealing’ Blue Star from the stands could only be the work of Yao Black’s Creator Gods.
Since they did this, they are surely not aimless.
The unknown can sometimes be even more frightening.
Thinking of this, Lin Jingxuan did not hesitate to issue the latest command through Heaven Net.
Blue Star, re-enter wartime status!
Lin Jingxuan was not kept waiting for long.
Right after issuing the command, when Combat Spirit Contract Masters and Combat Intelligent Mechanism units fully went into standby mode, and Blue Star activated the planet-level battle fortress,
the previously massive deployment of monitoring mechanisms into the cosmos, used to detect the outskirts of the Star Sea, sent back a segment of video.
It was a special program set in the nanomachines.
If nanomachines are destroyed, they automatically return images recorded before destruction, for Heaven Net Center’s analysis.
Lin Jingxuan opened the video:
The first thing seen was a vast expanse of boundless darkness.
This Star Domain used to be illuminated by the World Tree’s presence, its branches stretching out to all corners of the cosmos, emanating a pale golden glow that lit the entire Star Domain.
Now, the World Tree has returned to Yao Black’s bronze long table, trapped by the antique artifact [Battle of the Gods].
The entire Star Sea is left in endless darkness.
Lin Jingxuan watched silently, continuing to observe.
The nanomachine detection device drifted far in the dark Star Sea cosmos.
Suddenly, the video stopped abruptly and transmitted back.
What happened?
Lin Jingxuan squinted his eyes.
"Slow the video down by a factor of one hundred."
As soon as he spoke, Heaven Net began processing the video.
After processing, the video replayed again, still nothing visible.
"Slow down by a factor of ten thousand!"
"No, slow down while adjusting the exposure to maximum, see what exactly is recorded in this transmitted video!"
This time, Heaven Net processed much slower.
But during wartime status, computing power was fully invoked to serve, finishing the processing request within a few minutes.
The video, now processed by Heaven Net, was no longer pure darkness but turned into daylight.
Around was a vast white expanse until a shadow appeared!
Seeing the shadow, Lin Jingxuan’s pupils enlarged abruptly as if he saw something incredibly terrifying.
"Slow down that shadow part further, and clarify the details!"
He spoke quickly.
As time passed, the shadow in the video became clearer again.
No mistake!
Lin Jingxuan confirmed it without a doubt.
The shadow in the video was—Primordial True Insect!
A living Primordial True Insect!
How is this possible?
Wasn’t the Primordial True Insect[Silence]already exterminated by all Saints?
Why would a living Primordial True Insect appear now!
Furthermore, as Heaven Net analyzed the shadow’s shape, it also deduced its movement trajectory.
Clearly, its target was Blue Star!
Lin Jingxuan was unaware of the relationship between the Primordial True Insect and the River of Eternal Darkness, but he was entirely sure, this insect was Yao Black’s last resort, intended to destroy Blue Star!
If Han Zhan and Human Race Saints were present, the Primordial True Insect would not be feared.
But now, humanity’s highest combat power has entered the antique artifact[Battle of the Gods],
Lin Jingxuan understood that no miracle would happen this time.
The remaining people of Blue Star must rely on themselves to try and defeat a living Primordial True Insect.
Moreover, accompanying it, appearing in the vast Star Sea, was a thick swarm of countless insects!
The previously rampant insect disaster on Blue Star was unexpectantly returning!
