Galactic Big Bang
The amber pupils of the Soul-Devouring Spider Mother suddenly contracted to pinpoints, and a bloody slit suddenly split open across her Twist human face on her abdomen.
Before Pas's gauntlet could even fall, a thick, blue-green poisonous mist suddenly spewed out from the bloody crevice—this time it was no longer a simple soul erosion, but a high-concentration neurotoxin mixed with the life essence of Overlord Tier!
"Hiss--!"
Amidst a sharp hiss, six pairs of translucent soul wing membranes suddenly unfolded from behind the Soul-Devouring Spider Mother.
The wing membranes are covered with energy patterns like blood vessels, and each vibration creates visible gray ripples in the vacuum.
The moment Pas's fist touched the poisonous mist, the annihilation runes suddenly flickered violently, their luster dimmed by the corrosive effects of the toxins.
Seeing that the Soul-Devouring Spider was completely deviating from his planned course of action, Pas immediately flew into a rage.
He originally intended for some subordinate civilizations to serve as nourishment for the other side, which can be considered as his own cultivation, which led to the other side's rise to Hegemon today.
The most difficult part of the plan was thought to be the arrival of such a massive Soul-Devouring Spider in the Merrick Civilization, which would cause immense fear and reaction within the Galactic Federation.
Who knew that this damned beast would refuse to cooperate at all?
He even reacted like this when he sensed Lister's presence. Could it be that he's afraid of Lister but not of him?!
"Court death!"
With a loud shout, the cuff of Pas's military uniform suddenly ripped open, revealing a forearm covered in inscriptions.
The patterns glowed with a scarlet light, forming a honeycomb-shaped force field shield on the skin's surface.
However, the mother's arthropods had already become afterimages, and eight barbed limbs attacked from all directions like a meat grinder.
"Clang!"
Sparks flew silently from the collision; the attacks of the arthropods and the poisonous mist were still somewhat ineffective against Pas.
At this moment, Pas stopped holding back, and every time his gloves and limbs collided, they tore tiny cracks in the surrounding space.
Seeing that the opponent was retreating steadily and was no match for them at all.
Suddenly, the newly formed wing membranes of the mother on the opposite side began to vibrate at a high frequency, and those gray ripples actually condensed into a solidified spider web cage around Pas!
"Soul Imprisonment?!"
Pas's pupils contracted sharply.
He hadn't expected that this mother body could actually unleash a soul-type talent domain.
Every thread of the spiderweb was dripping with blue-green venom, which was frantically eroding his psychic shield.
Even more terrifying, countless faces of Lister emerged from the mist formed by the evaporation of the venom—the most profound memory of fear from the Mother over the past three hundred years, now turning into a mental attack that backfired!
"Damn it! You're Lister's mistress?"
"I thought he was pretty tolerant, but I didn't expect that!"
Pas was distracted as he resisted the mental attack, but due to the presence of some of his memories...
The origins of the Soul-Devouring Spider were immediately known to him.
Instead of being angry, he was pleased, and he allowed the Soul-Devouring Spiders to wreak havoc on the Merrick Civilization, all to provoke conflict.
Now, things are much better; everything is done in one go.
Lister himself fostered Zerg -like civilization, violating the Federation Constitution Convention.
There was no need for any further actions; at this moment, there was no longer any hesitation or reservation in making a move.
However, the Soul-Devouring Spider has now entered a desperate state, and the blood seams in the mother's abdomen have suddenly expanded to their limit.
A bluish-purple venom sac, over 100 meters in diameter, was squeezed out of the crack, its surface pulsating with spiderweb-like blood vessels.
This poison sac, which embodies the essence of the mother civilization, is its ultimate weapon prepared to deal with Lister in the future!
"Boom--!"
The shockwave from the explosion of the poison sac cleared away all the stardust within a radius of a thousand miles.
The bluish-purple poisonous fog spread like a supernova explosion, instantly corroding meteorites in its path into porous, sponge-like substances.
Pas's inscribed shield cracked under the weight of the poisonous mist.
"Cough!"
Pas coughed up a mouthful of blood; his internal organs were being eroded by the toxins.
An eerie blue-green tinge began to appear at the edges of my pupils' field of vision.
Ultimately, there was an advantage in rank; despite being caught off guard and taking the hit, Pas was not fatally wounded.
It was just a genuine trauma; Pas had entered the second stage, where the toxins had penetrated to the point where they could no longer cause harm.
Just as he was about to retaliate, he shattered the mother body of the Soul-Devouring Spider with a single punch.
However, something chilling happened: the remaining faces of Lister in the poisonous fog suddenly all turned in the same direction.
A strange sense of unease washed over her, and the mother's enormous body trembled violently, trying to escape.
The battle was forced to pause at this moment.
The Soul-Devouring Spider went berserk and began to flee into the distance.
Pas quickly looked behind him, using all his sensory abilities.
However, with each second he paused, the palpitation in his heart grew stronger.
Until a certain moment, the palpitations reached their peak, turning into a sixth sense that I was about to face death.
Beta Civilization, QR Star Region.
This area is located in the central part of the Beta Civilization, but it is actually close to the Witchcraft Civilization.
Lister and Kavin appeared here.
The moment the pale gold rune at Kavin's fingertip disappeared into the core of the symbiotic machine, the nebula across the entire star field suddenly Twist into a vortex.
The free energy flowing between stars was poured into this mechanical core at a speed visible to the naked eye.
How long until detonation?
"At any time... but according to the plan, it will take some time to absorb energy."
It looks like someone's coming.
Lister's senses are sharp, and now that he has reached the Fourth Advancement, the area covered by his Killing Intent Wave is extremely large.
They had already sensed the two Hegemon approaching them.
"Hoffman, are you sure Pas is in the Soul-Devouring Spider's star system?"
"Confirmed... the mother organism has just completed its evolution, Pas is about to attack it."
Hoffman's voice immediately came to my ears.
That's right, the Soul-Devouring Spider's reproductive attack was all witnessed by an observer.
As a major in the Second Army, Hoffman easily observed Pas's every move.
Seeing this, Lister stopped talking and gripped the Shadowless Blade tightly in his hand.
Its senses were constantly probing for whoever was approaching.
The aura felt familiar; if nothing unexpected happened, it was Sailuo.
The other one was different; his aura was in no way weaker than Sailuo's, but he was completely unfamiliar to Lister.
The dark golden gate of the Void Corridor opened silently amidst the nebula, and Sailuo stepped out with an old man draped in a robe with star patterns.
With each step the old man took, ancient runes appeared beneath his feet.
Based on some information Lister obtained in the Eternal Sea of Trees, this attire suggests that of the Hegemon of the Void Corridor.
[Target spotted: Morris]
[Level: LV???]
[Class: Star Wise One (Mage)]
[Health Points: 15251209/15251209]
[Strength:4518417/4518417]
[Attributes: Strength:???, Stamina:???,...]
[Skill:???,...]
[Overall Rating: S]
Looking at the final overall evaluation, Lister breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was just a Hegemon, albeit one of higher rank.
"Lister, do you know what you're doing?"
"It's... Leviathan's mechanical core?"
Sailuo demanded sharply, his eyes filled with disbelief!
I thought Lister was good at being patient and patient, but who knew he would give me such a big "surprise" right from the start!
He was meditating within the Soul Barrier when he suddenly felt a pang of fear.
The fact that his sixth sense could inexplicably erupt even in the Galactic Federation was definitely no small matter.
He immediately contacted the Void Corridor, and Morris, who was on good terms with him, immediately informed him of the location. Morris himself also arrived in the Milky Way Galaxy in a short time.
Lister then realized that the Beta Civilization also had many external connections.
The Void Corridor, as one of the seven super powers in the universe, focuses on selling information, specifically information from multiple dimensions.
I never expected that my plan with Kavin would be exposed.
The few people who knew about this mechanical core flashed through his mind; it couldn't have been them who revealed it to others.
I guess this is a special ability of the Void Corridor.
"Lister... we can discuss your demands regarding the Merrick Civilization."
"The detonation of this mechanical core is no small matter; it could destroy half the Milky Way!"
Sailuo kept trying to persuade him, believing that it was the past three hundred years that had pushed Lister to the brink, causing him to prepare for a desperate fight.
While trying to keep Lister in check, he harbors an ever-growing resentment towards Boren Leviathan.
It was this accompanying mechanical core that made them let the other party go back then.
Now look what's happened! They've gone even further, collaborating with Lister and pulling this stunt!
"Sailuo, isn't it a little too late for you to say that now?"
As Lister spoke, he gestured to Kavin.
As energy from the surrounding star system continued to pour in, the energy of this associated mechanical core became increasingly unstable.
"Lister, and this unfamiliar Hegemon, I am Morris from the Void Corridor."
"I can vouch for you two; could you please stop this symbiotic core activity for now?"
Morris's tone was quite calm, but intuition doesn't lie.
Under the perception of the Killing Intent Wave, almost all of the opponent's aura was focused on this symbiotic core.
Clearly, they were also wary of the bomb going off.
Seeing that neither Kavin nor Lister made a move.
Morris's patience was wearing thin, and his voice grew stern as he spoke again.
"Have you two never heard of our Void Corridor?"
"I can tell you very clearly that if this mechanical core is detonated..."
"With the intelligence capabilities of the Void Corridor, the two of you have no way to hide."
"Or perhaps, do you two truly wish to wage war against the Void Corridor?"
Lister did not take Morris's threat seriously.
On the one hand, he needed to buy time and wait for the mechanical core to absorb energy.
On the other hand, the more one threatens with words, the more it reveals a lack of strength.
Even if, judging from their aura, they don't belong to the Sailuo.
However, they still dared not take direct action, or rather, they were not confident that they could replicate the mechanical core in battle without it being detonated.
Lister now understands why the famous "Galactic Big Bang" in his previous life's game was never actually implemented.
It turns out that one of the seven major powers, the Void Corridor, was also involved.
It seems that in his previous life, Kavin was outnumbered and outmatched, making it difficult for him to withstand the pursuit from the Void Corridor.
Ultimately, the "Galactic Big Bang," which shocked many major powers in the universe, was merely mentioned in the context of its actions, but the actual event did not occur.
Fortunately, the mere fact that someone could do something like that is already appalling.
The major powers in the universe are all ruthless killers, waging all sorts of wars, but the idea of directly blowing up an entire galaxy has never been considered before.
As a result, the Church of Mechanical Truth, along with Kavin, came into the view of the major cosmic powers.
Furthermore, as Kavin's power grew, the Church of Mechanical Truth was soon known as the Mechanical God Cult, the Madmen's God Cult, and so on.
Before he transmigrated, the Mechanical God Cult had already abolished the Star Machine Civilization and become one of the seven super powers in the new universe.
Furthermore, their relationship with the Void Corridor is extremely poor; a war even broke out before the two major forces arrived.
This also suggests that the so-called Void Corridor is not as powerful as Qi claimed.
Now, Kavin is no longer the person he was before he transmigrated, fighting almost alone.
Was the explosion prevented from occurring before Kavin's transmigration due to pressure or for some other reason?
But this life is different; he'll be there to carry it out!
Unless the ruler of that World-Ending Level force in the Void Corridor descends, there's no way to stop it.
Seeing that Kavin and Lister were still stalling for time.
Morris lost all patience and made the first move, despite Sailuo's hesitant gaze.
His robes fluttered without wind, twelve star trails intertwined behind him like chains, ready to smash into Kavin in one fell swoop.
Suddenly, a dazzling pale gold light burst forth from Kavin's fingertips.
"Detonation procedure locked."
Unique multi-layered encryption runes appeared on the surface of the mechanical core, and Kavin's cold voice rang out.
Morris, who was about to attack, suddenly stopped moving. A golden gate appeared in front of him, and he immediately took a step out and left.
Sailuo's eyes were filled with resentment as he stared intently at Lister and Kavin.
Only when a terrifying high-dimensional energy reaction arrived did he tremble and suppress his inner resentment, quickly retreating.
Warning: High-dimensional collapse reaction detected, danger!
The system also issued a warning at this moment.
An incomparable feeling of palpitation welled up in my heart.
Lister and Kavin immediately evacuated along the planned route.
There was a special temporary teleportation array nearby that Boren had arranged.
In the blink of an eye, the two had arrived at Leviathan's First Governing Star.
At the same time, the orange-red patterns on the surface of the accompanying mechanical core in the Beta Star Region suddenly turned into a glaring pale white.
The spatial ripples caused by the collapse of higher dimensions spread out layer by layer like a shattered mirror.
The entire QR Star Region was Twist into a bizarre Moss ring shape in a fraction of a second.
Starlight is stretched into infinitely long threads, and planetary debris repeatedly collapses and is reborn within dimensional rifts.
Suddenly, a blue-white rift spanning the entire Milky Way Galaxy tore open the curtain.
Numerous forces were able to observe the Destruction energy of this explosion.
It was an energy torrent that transcended the laws of physics, like a giant axe swung down by a god.
The explosion began to spread further, and the Third Governing Star of the Beta Civilization, which was relatively close, was the first to be vaporized, with the earth's crust silently disintegrating into elementary particles.
The core star system and some forces of the Witchcraft Civilization were also annihilated by this high energy level.
Fortunately, both civilizations possess top-notch emergency response capabilities.
A temporary super alarm was sounded.
The massive energy shield originated from the First Governing Star of the two civilizations and continued to expand outwards, encompassing the entire existing star system.
