The three highest-ranking figures of the Decayed Civilization were the God of Destruction Zanding, Emperor of Depravity Xili'ao, and Prophet of Radiance Saliya.
They were collectively known as the "Kings of Decay," counterparts to the Evil Tide Civilization's Three Supremes!
That was right—the Decayed Civilization was the Evil Tide Civilization's next opponent in Dimensional Hegemony.
Like the Evil Tide Civilization, the Decayed Civilization was also a Top-Level Civilization that had developed to its ultimate form within the Star Realm. Excessively rejected by the Star Realm's laws of balance, it had no choice but to embark upon the path of Dimensional Hegemony.
Among the Three Kings of Decay, the God of Destruction Zanding was a staunch advocate of Dimensional Hegemony.
He believed that the path of ranging Across the Astral Realm was a dead end.
For with the Decayed Civilization's capabilities, they had yet to discover where the Star Realm's boundaries lay.
Moreover, throughout the Decayed Civilization's history, there had been no shortage of peak experts, even Level-9 Beings, who had made predictions—the Star Realm was boundless and had always been expanding without limit.
Though no one knew what methods those past Kings of Decay had used for their calculations, they had arrived at one deeply terrifying conclusion—the Decayed Civilization's rate of corrosive Decay Transformation expansion was far inferior to the Star Realm's own rate of growth!
It was precisely for this reason that the God of Destruction Zanding believed it was impossible to completely transform the Star Realm into decay, and thus advocated embarking upon the path of Dimensional Hegemony.
It was worth mentioning that the God of Destruction Zanding was considered the strongest among the Three Kings of Decay.
He followed the ultimate Path of Destruction. The laws of Decay Transformation were merely a secondary discipline in Zanding's hands.
