Cosmic Wonder

The instant the blade touched the geometric object, the entire mechanical structure of the Machine Creation Galaxy emitted a piercing metallic wail.

"That damned swordsmanship again!"

The Ruler One was unwilling to accept this; he had already experienced that familiar blade of light before.

The attack penetrates straight to the soul, utterly ruthless.

They tried to hide, only to find they had already been locked onto.

Moreover, given the speed of that blade's aura, he didn't even have time to activate his shield.

The once-proud astral armor was sliced open layer by layer like paper, and a torrent of purplish-red Mechanical Poison gushed out from the wounds, only to evaporate into nothingness the instant it came into contact with the scarlet blade light.

The thousands of mechanical planets that make up the war machine trembled simultaneously.

In the blink of an eye, it had been sliced in two, the cut surface perfectly smooth.

The remaining two halves of the machine burst forth with blinding sparks of energy, eventually exploding before their very eyes.

The soul of the Overlord One abandoned this war machine in an instant.

Instead, it was transferred to the Ultimate War machine in the Data Abyss Galaxy.

At first, a sense of relief rose in my heart.

The war machines of these four star systems can form a true unified whole, or they can simply act as a systemic entity and launch attacks at the same frequency.

He chose this systematic approach precisely to guard against Lister's swordsmanship.

But in the next instant, the pain in his soul still arose.

Lister's swordsmanship not only penetrates directly to the soul, but once struck, there is no way to dodge.

A blade formed from immense killing intent manifested directly in his soul space, ultimately severing his soul.

There was no room for resistance; the soul was instantly severed in two.

Moreover, these two halves of the soul showed no signs of repair; on the contrary, they began to disintegrate and collapse piece by piece.

He looks like he's going to die!

The fear of death surged within him, and countless memories resurfaced in his mind.

Before this battle began, the Ruler One took many precautions and created countless illusions.

Even though he had considered the possibility of being defeated and dying, he never imagined he would die this way.

They had only just launched one attack when they were wiped out by a single strike from their opponent.

The memory finally stopped before his eyes, and then his thoughts completely stopped. The World-Ending Level aura dissipated in an instant.

"Attack: Execute effect triggered, dealing a total of -86,063,314 true damage (execution maximum health)."

Lister was somewhat surprised when he saw the kill information popped up by the system.

After all, the opponent has over 80 million health points.

He knew that in this second phase, especially with the enhancement of the Saber Soul, his combat power and damage would skyrocket.

But I never imagined that I could kill my opponent so easily with a single strike.

He gripped the crimson longsword tightly, still thinking of delivering another blow at any moment.

The giant war machine before them, cleaved in two, had exploded on its own, leaving only wreckage.

Ocas, standing to the side, looked even more astonished, and the unreliable aura emanating from him vanished instantly.

The chains binding him were no longer as active as before, now tightly curled up on the outside of Ocas's robes.

"It's... it's over just like that?"

"That big lump of iron... just like that... gone?"

After standing there stunned for a moment, Ocas finally murmured something to himself.

This question wasn't really directed at Lister; it seemed more like he was trying to convince himself.

As one of the leaders of a superpower, he was not surprised by the outcome.

With him and Lister present, defeating and suppressing the opponent is inevitable.

But no one expected it to be so easy. After all, it was the lair of the Star Machine Civilization, and they thought that the Overlord One would keep using all his tricks and trump cards.

But none of this ever happened.

On the contrary, Lister's strength has increased dramatically once again, and he has once again unleashed astonishing power!

Under the influence of this special state, he actually killed his opponent with a single strike.

It was as if the other party wasn't a World Annihilation leader of a superpower... but merely an insignificant Hegemon.

In an instant, my sense of awe and reverence surged.

Lister's image and talent have now completely won him over.

The opponent's strength is definitely comparable to that of Archbishop Xavier of our Church of the End.

"Sorry, I didn't expect him to be so weak."

"The ultimate machine in the other three star systems hasn't been Destruction yet. Shall we go over there and see if there's anything you want?"

Ignoring Ocas's surprise, Lister was more concerned with whether Kavin could get what he needed.

"Let's go to the Data Abyss first."

The overall feel of the Data Abyss Galaxy is virtually identical to that of the Creation Association Galaxy.

The entire galaxy has been completely transformed, and it even feels more spacious now.

At the center of the galaxy, the war machine, formed from the mechanical planets of the entire galaxy, was indeed still intact.

The multidimensional geometric shape was now completely dim and lifeless, as if its soul had been ripped out, and it had fallen into utter silence.

Only within a certain functional module, a torrent of purplish-red Mechanical Poison energy was still being preserved.

Golden data streams once again shone from Kavin's pupils.

At the same time, he had already grasped the Ancient Machine Holy Grail in his hand.

The massive mechanical structure is being disassembled.

With astonishing mechanical genius, tens of thousands of mechanized planets all ceased resonating.

Countless connecting energy channels were gradually detached, and tens of millions of highly mechanized planets began to be removed, returning to their original positions.

Only one core compartment was eventually extracted, which should be the soul container of the Overlord One.

At this moment, it was covered with spiderweb-like cracks, and the liquid energy inside had long since evaporated, leaving only a rhomboid crystal shell the size of a walnut, which then silently shattered in the void.

Following Kavin, they traveled to the remaining two star systems.

After falling silent, the galaxy-sized war machine was quickly taken over by Kavin.

After collecting countless data points, Kavin was able to re-analyze these war machines.

Do you have the information you need?

"Yes, these war machines are the true realization of the Ancient Machine Kingdom's vision."

"The Star Machine Civilization does this very well; the war machines composed of each star system can be both individual entities and a cohesive whole pieced together."

"If they possessed the Holy Grail, this war machine would reach its strongest form after being modified by it."

Kavin held mechanical technology and knowledge in high regard.

Essentially, his personality isn't that of a fighter; it's more like that of a researcher.

Those who are willing to do anything to find the truth.

Lister himself had to admit that these war machines were indeed very powerful and exaggerated.

If the Ancient Machine Holy Grail were to be obtained, and this mechanical artifact were to undergo fundamental evolution and modification, it would indeed be the strongest form of the mechanical type in this direction.

No wonder the Ruler II was lured to the front by the Emerald Royal Court back then.

The enhancement that the Ancient Machine Holy Grail Star Machine Civilization brought about a complete transformation.

The evolution of the two World Annihilation themselves, coupled with the evolution of the war machines in these four star systems, could potentially propel the Star Machine Civilization from the bottom of the original seven superpowers to the middle ranks.

"Luckily we arrived early, otherwise the Ruler One would have tried to escape."

"Escape? This iron lump is willing to leave on its own?"

Ocas was gradually recovering from his surprise at Lister.

Hearing that the Ruler One originally intended to escape, one can't help but feel puzzled.

This World Annihilation war is all about resource allocation.

Escaping would mean abandoning the resources available in the universe.

Moreover, how can one escape the World Annihilation? Which power would simply let it go?

"These war machines, including the planets within this vast galaxy, were originally unable to leave the galaxy."

"It was only in recent years that it was renovated again."

"All planets in the entire galaxy can migrate with it at any time."

Lister hadn't expected the Ruler One to have these backup plans.

Unfortunately, all these backup plans are now useless.

The Abika Galaxy is one of the public star systems near the Star Machine Civilization.

At this moment, most of the forces in that star system tacitly dispatched intelligence personnel to investigate a certain coordinate.

Several Fourth Advancement faction leaders who considered themselves quite powerful even went there in person.

The reason was simple: they had received intelligence about a "cosmic spectacle".

For the major forces involved in public information, even though the entire universe is currently under extremely dangerous and high-pressure conditions.

The major World Annihilation forces are at war, but the allure of the "cosmic wonder" outweighs the danger in their hearts.

After all, in their eyes, the birth of a "cosmic wonder" means the birth of special resources.

If we can seize it, it will be an opportunity to further enhance our strength.

However, as soon as these people approached the intelligence coordinates, they realized something was wrong.

The moment they stepped into the nearby star field, a suffocating killing intent immediately enveloped everyone's hearts.

This murderous intent, penetrating to the very soul, stung everyone.

Fear grew wildly within me, and retreating became my first instinct.

However, driven by this fear, they couldn't suppress their curiosity and focused their senses.

The "cosmic spectacle" described in the intelligence finally appeared before their eyes.

It was not some newly formed strange nebula or the remnant of an exploding supernova, but a magnificent migration scene that was enough to overturn their understanding of the universe.

In the distant sea of stars, an endless shadow, large enough to obscure the stars, is slowly moving with a constant and unstoppable momentum.

Upon closer inspection, the "shadow" itself was actually composed of countless, highly modified mechanical planets!

These planets, in various shapes and sizes, have long lost their natural celestial characteristics and have been transformed into cold, steel creations.

It has a ring-shaped nested energy hub platform and a massive, gleaming blade structure forged from scratch.

These were undoubtedly all part of the planets in the core star systems of the Star Machine Civilization — Heart of Ten Thousand Machines, Eternal Forge, and Data Abyss.

What's even more chilling is that these massive planets are not drifting aimlessly, but rather, under absolutely precise guidance, they reassemble and piece together themselves in the cold void, forming an unprecedented colossal display as they move forward.

"My God... these... these planets look so familiar."

"No! This... this looks like a planet belonging to Star Machine Civilization! They're... migrating?!"

A Fourth Advancement faction leader's voice cried out in horror over the encrypted communication channel.

He had previously visited the core star system of the Star Machine Civilization, so he naturally recognized these unique planets, which were exactly the same as those in his memory.

"Migration? Who has that kind of power?"

Another incredulous voice boomed through the channel.

After all, what they were seeing was beyond their wildest imaginations.

Could it be possible to move all the planets of an entire galaxy, a super-civilization, like building blocks at will?!

This scene completely overturned their understanding, but in the next instant, a guess came to everyone's mind.

"Could it be the ruler of the Star Machine Civilization?"

"Could it be that the Star Machine Civilization is going to leave?"

"No! This killing intent is too terrifying; this is definitely not the aura of the Ruler."

"Look over there! This... this is the leader of the Machine-Slaying Federation, Lord Lister!"

"The direction these planets are migrating in seems to be the same direction the Machine-Slaying Federation is heading!"

"Could it be! The Ruler...!?"

Countless messages were constantly being transmitted among the major powers in the common galaxy.

This so-called cosmic spectacle was naturally created by Kavin using the Holy Grail to gain temporary access to the cosmos.

Most of the mechanical Machine Creation Galaxy have lost their usability.

However, the value of the mechanized planets in the remaining three star systems is immeasurable.

Especially for Kavin, it is a perfect practical testament to the technical data of the Ancient Machine Civilization.

These planets will all be migrated to Babylon information.

Those colossal, blade-like planets, massive clusters of energy towers, and intricate arrays of three-dimensional factories...

They will find new orbits in the Babylon star system, be given new functions, and become the skeleton, muscles, and nerves of the federation.

The Machine-Slaying Federation, especially Kavin's Church of Mechanical Truth, has really made a killing this time.

Lister and Kavin escorted these migrating planets from one end to the other.

The powerful Killing Intent Wave like an invisible dome, intimidating all prying eyes.

Any force that dares to covet these "planetary" sites must weigh the consequences in the face of the fear of having their souls stared at.

At the same time, news of the fall of the Ruler One in this wondrous landscape naturally spread to all the major super powers in an instant.

Unlike the previous fall of Curtis and the Ruler II.

The fall of those two World Annihilation beings caused a tremendous shock to the universe.

But the fall of the Ruler One this time can be seen as the premature end of a super power.

The balance of power in the universe has now returned to a structure of seven major powers.

Furthermore, the intensity of the war was further escalated.

In the Void Corridor, the Void Spirits and the Lord of Phantoms, who were engaged in battle, also received the news during a brief interval.

The Lord of Phantoms' expression grew increasingly solemn, while the Lord of Void Spirits showed a hint of joy.

In the next instant, the surging Power of the End appeared in front of him.

The Lord of Void Spirits looked at Isaac in disbelief.

They had been fighting these two from the Church of the End for quite some time.

Neither of them had ever fought before, and their battle seemed more like a test, with neither side expecting the other to go all out.

At least the Lord of Void Spirits hadn't considered that even if the opponent was the World Annihilation of the Church of the End, as the strongest in the Void Corridor, he and the Lord of Phantoms were not afraid of these two when they joined forces.

Now that the Power of the End appeared, the Lord of Void Spirits has taken this matter seriously.
