Chapter 1996
"It just goes to show that those of us in a civilized world can’t imagine the cruelty hidden in the dark corners!" The mysterians could hardly breathe as they witnessed the hedgehog-like sun aim its spears at Skywolf Blaze. At that moment, it resembled some kind of feline prowling back and forth, staring at its prey. It stretched its body, gearing up for an attack. The sun’s spears shot out toward Skywolf Blaze, followed by streaks of gold and white fire and ice across the cosmos. The deafening sound left a ringing in the specters’ ears as a bright light engulfed them.
"Run!"
Terrified, they fled once more, turning around for one last glance. It was as they had imagined—the formation failed to resist the impact of the sun emperor’s desperate attack. Like syringes, the lances pierced through the white flames, past the sky, and into the land, ocean, and mountains. Regardless of how hard the land was, it split apart without the protection of its astralguard formation. All it took to pulverize an entire continent were spears larger than the Azurecloud Divine Tree. Rocks, mountains, rivers, trees, and all creatures were reduced to ashes that quickly spread out to the cosmos.
As the sun’s spears mercilessly impaled Skywolf Blaze, below, the Flameyellow Guard Formation collided with the land and seas. The specters within the formation had been returned to their home. In the violent collision of the two nova sources, beasts and specters alike were torn into pieces by the rampaging nova source.
The surface of Skywolf Blaze sank from the impact. Everything in over a dozen continents and seas was reduced to nothing. Like a wave, the terrifying power rippled from the point of impact to the surroundings. A mixture of thick smoke, nova source, flesh, blood, ash, and shattered rock combined into a storm that swept across the other side of Skywolf Blaze. They thought that was the end of it, but to their surprise, the sun moved in the opposite direction, forcibly pulling out its spears. As a result, Skywolf Blaze’s nova source began pouring out from the rifts.
Even from the Flameyellow Continent, the fiery pillars erupting from Skywolf Blaze, filling up the sky, and falling toward the world below were visible. Of course, the view was merely momentary. As soon as the sun’s spears were removed, they immediately pierced Skywolf Blaze’s fusion formation, causing a second wave of shocks. Amidst Skywolf Blaze’s apocalypse, the second attack wiped out all living beings and burned everything. The unhampered nova source incinerated the surface of the fusion formation, its flames reaching a million meters high. The entire world was engulfed by the violent white flames. Once again, mother nature had demonstrated her true might. No living being could withstand a nova source without the fusion formation. They could only become transient ashes in the face of such power. At the moment of a world’s destruction, even solarians would be burnt to a crisp.
Like a beast without reason, the sun’s spears pierced and devoured, destroying Skywolf Blaze’s million-year-old civilization. Caeli, divine artifacts, herbs, pills, formations, battle arts created by countless generations, and all of a civilization’s history were destroyed by this monstrous power. In the vast, apathetic universe, the crystallization of civilization meant nothing. Life and death seemed to hold no significance, either. This apocalypse was but a moment in the endless river of time.
Skywolf Blaze suffered far worse than Skywolf Frost had. What they encountered was the sun in its most violent rage amidst a desperate situation. All of the sun emperor’s emotions and thoughts were now assimilated into the sun. It was as if it was the man himself. Everyone below the Ascension stage on Skywolf Blaze, as well as specters who had failed to enter the sun, were vaporized and perished in an instant. Right before death, only one image remained in their mind: a sun descending from the sky, expanding until it scorched the tops of their heads.
Several impacts, coupled with the outpouring of Skywolf’s nova source, left the entire world in flames. The fire on the surface of the pale star intensified, burning all creatures, sand, and even water into nothingness. If it were to continue burning, there was no doubt that the two Skywolf Stars that originally hid in the dark would become things of the past and disappear from the universe.
After Skywolf Blaze’s complete annihilation, the sun finally stopped. Through the syringe-like spears, it began frantically absorbing nova source from the star. What was originally three times the size of the sun began pouring into it at a terrifying speed. The sun started expanding at an astonishing rate, leading to insufficient earth on the surface. Mountains and lands split apart and the seas directly turned into a marsh.
"Oh my goodness! So this is a war between nova source worlds...."
For those in the world below, the past few days had been spent watching a dramatic spectacle among the stars. One day, two white suns had appeared in the sky, surrounding the golden sun. Then the golden sun devoured the small white sun and swelled up like a balloon. And now it was devouring the larger sun and becoming five times its original size. At that moment, an enormous white sun hung in the sky above the Flameyellow Continent. Even with Skywolf Frost’s power for balance, the world had grown hotter.
People in Flameyellow watched the sky like dazed fools. The war between nova source worlds had aroused their yearning and fear. Even those from the Mysterium Cluster were stunned at the sight of a heliacal-class world expanding to half the size of a skypiercer-class world. Qiang was astonished as well. No words could describe their current emotions.
