The first phase of the war in Destruction Time-Space could indeed be called a great victory.
Judging solely by the final outcome, not only had the Destruction Divine Kingdom Faction not been driven out by the Destruction Supreme, but it had instead established foundations within this extremely Higher Dimensional Plane that could not easily be erased.
Five Level-12 Destruction Creatures had been sealed.
One Level-12 Destruction Creature had been slain.
Multiple Level-12 Destruction nodes had suffered severe damage.
Locke had seized authority over a Destruction Star Zone.
Saine had repaired half of the Realm-Suppressing Ring and suppressed one corner of the Destruction Heart Core.
The Creation God had advanced to Level-13.
The Ancient Tree of the Moon had advanced to Level-12.
Destruction Mech Soldiers had been born.
Final Silence Time-Space had begun to truly intervene as an observer.
Taken together, these achievements would be considered rare even across the long years of the Multiverse.
The only regret was that the Destruction Supreme still existed.
It was too powerful.
So powerful that even with Locke, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, the Limitless Golden Emperor, the Lord of Eternal Day, the Evil Spirit King, the Creation God, and multiple other Level-13 Lords of Dimension joining forces, they could only suppress it rather than truly eliminate it.
However, for the Destruction Divine Kingdom Faction, this was already enough.
They needed time.
Time to digest the gains from this war.
Time to repair their damaged legions.
Time to completely stabilize the authority over the Destruction Star Zone that Locke had seized.
Time for the Creation God to return to Light Universe Time-Space and truly secure his position as a Lord of Dimension.
Time would also allow Saine to complete the dismantling of more Truth Arcana.
The Destruction Divine Kingdom Faction's legions were withdrawing from Destruction Time-Space
