Ebony retreated again

The auras of the World-Devouring Emperor Monarch and the God of Machines have already shifted towards another starry sky.

As soon as Ebony withdrew his gaze, the God Slaying Spear was thrust at him again.

The Darkness Long Sword was held horizontally in front of him, and the moment it caught the spearhead, his Rule True Body, was also knocked backward by the destructive force that pressed down on him.

The darkness that was still manageable beneath their feet was not replenished in time.

Ebony immediately noticed the changes in that Energy-Supply Starfield.

But he no longer had time to divert his attention to it.

The Destruction Black Lotus beneath Locke's feet stretched outwards, its Black Lotus falling one by one to occupy the surrounding areas where he could easily move.

Ebony swung his sword sharply, a Darkness Edge piercing through the center of the lotus shadow.

The newly formed crack was instantly filled with even more intense Flames of Destruction.

Then, the second shot came!

This time, Ebony did not continue to rely solely on his longsword to block.

The radiance of another Dimension Supreme Treasure shone from his chest, and a thick darkness quickly enveloped his Rules Body. As the God Slaying Spear pierced through it, the originally solid protection suddenly split open to the sides, attempting to drag Locke towards itself along the spear shaft.

The Ebony longsword, on the other hand, slashed upwards from below.

This sword strike embodies the Local Power he just summoned from deeper within.

A vast expanse of darkness merged with the sword's edge, cutting a remarkably clear line even into the nearby still-burning Flames of Destruction.

However, Locke also moved forward.

Instead of withdrawing the God Slaying Spear that had already pierced the guard, he pushed the spear further in.

The Darkness Long Sword fell upon the Destruction Black Lotus, shattering several layers of lotus shadows in succession. On the other side, the protective barrier on Ebony's chest also suddenly collapsed under the increasingly powerful spearhead!

The Origin of Destruction poured in through the crack.

Ebony's figure froze for a moment.

Locke gripped the gun and jerked his arm outward. The darkness that had been clinging to the tip of the gun was torn away along with a piece of the Rules Flesh and blood on Ebony's chest!

An incredibly dense darkness surged forth in all directions.

The longsword in Ebony's hand, which had not yet fully fallen, also lost its original force at this moment.

The Destruction Black Lotus rose upwards, pushing the sword's edge to the side.

Locke's figure had already appeared directly in front of Ebony.

The two were so close that there was almost no room for any protective measures.

Ebony could only forcibly abandon the part of his origin that was still being held back by the spearhead in front of his chest, and the Rule True Body suddenly dispersed backward.

The God Slaying Spear pierced through the dispersing darkness, carving a long trail of destructive fire in the distance.

But the flames didn't just stay there.

The figure of Ebony, which had just reformed in another location, also shone with a black and red light from its chest and abdomen.

The Destruction Factor that were previously injected are still burning!

"Locke!" Ebony growled.

He swung his sword to slash away the flames outside his wound, and the surrounding native darkness was also dispersed considerably.

But the Destruction Demon God did not stop.

The God Slaying Spear was raised again, Destruction Black Lotus continued to spread forward along the direction in which the Ebony had retreated.

The Core Starfield, deeper within, finally appeared behind Ebony.

Compared to the outer perimeter, which had already fallen one after another, the darkness here was noticeably thicker. Several long-unused Origin Convergence Zone also lit up one after another under his will.

Ebony retreated directly into it.

The power that originally flowed outwards was drawn back by him and used to repair the damage to the Rule True Body.

Such actions will naturally put greater pressure on other regions.

But the Spear of Destruction is drawing ever closer!

Ebony raised his longsword, and a vast expanse of darkness connected to the Core Starfield pressed down simultaneously, temporarily blocking this round of attacks.

His Rules Body, was still trembling, but the source energy that had been gushing outward from his chest finally ceased.

Ebony did not allow the power he had just gathered to stop around him.

With a flick of the longsword to the side, two streams of darkness from the Core Starfield bypassed the spearhead in front, attempting to hold back the Destruction Black Lotus beneath Locke's feet.

One of the tendrils first wrapped around the outer side of Lotus Shadow, while the other pressed directly towards Locke's back.

Ebony followed up with a slash forward.

But the God Slaying Spear had already been brought to a horizontal position.

The gun barrel deflected the sword's edge, and Locke pressed down with his other hand, causing a surge of Flames of Destruction to erupt from the depths of the Black Lotus. The darkness that had just entangled the outer edge was burned off from the center, and the power behind it lost its supporting foundation.

Ebony had to retract the sword he hadn't yet fully swung, using it to suppress the Destruction Firelight that were swirling back at him.

In just one exchange, the Origin Convergence Zone behind him dimmed considerably.

The power accumulated there was only enough to make the Black Lotus beneath Locke's feet pause for a moment.

As the spearhead continued to approach, Ebony finally withdrew the remaining essence into its defenses.

Taking advantage of the power flowing in from behind, Ebony separated a wisp of his will and sent it to the Source-Devouring Jieyin Zone.

"I need more support!"

This time, he spoke unusually directly.

The response from the Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch quickly traveled through existing connections.

"More legions can come, but these places are no longer sufficient."

Several star fields that were being Jieyin to the vicinity appeared before Ebony.

One of them hadn't even been directly attacked by the Destruction Legion.

The resources and natural reserves there were all preserved by Ebony himself over the years.

That's exactly where the Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch has his eye now.

Ebony's face was grim. "Resources, I can continue to provide them."

"We need a location where we can directly receive and replenish our power," the Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch replied, "And we also need a stable rear."

As the words fell, several Jieyin Facility in that star field were marked one by one.

What the Devourer side is demanding is no longer just borrowing.

The legion maintains a long-term presence, directly utilizing local power facilities and ensuring a continuous flow of resources into the Jieyin Zone they control.

After reviewing these conditions, Ebony slowly tightened his grip on the sword.

He had already allowed the Source-Devouring Legion to enter, and now he was going to carve out a territory for them to operate in the long term.

But just then, another heavy rumble came from the outer edge of the Core Starfield.

The God Slaying Spear shattered a layer of darkness that had just gathered.

Locke is still moving forward!

Ebony channeled a new source of energy into the longsword, then said to the Communication Radiance before him, "This area is fine, but the two areas to the side must remain untouched."

The Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch did not fight any further.

The Jieyin rights for the designated area then unfolded along the Rule Mark transmitted from the Ebony. The Bright Yellow Power, which could only remain on the periphery, began to penetrate deeper into that star field, and the bottom line was thus gradually retreated step by step.

Meanwhile, the new Source-Devouring Legion continues to gather at the other end of the passage.

But these things still didn't reassure Ebony.

The World-Devouring Emperor Monarch was being blocked on the other side by the Mechanical God Emperor, while the Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch showed no intention of leaving the passage.

Locke, standing before him, wouldn't voluntarily put away his God Slaying Spear just because an additional legion had arrived from behind.

The fierce fighting continues.

The two previously received responses were reopened by Ebony.

Dark Nether Death God and Duolie did not completely sit idly by while he was in trouble.

Some of the resources that were sent over have already been used at the front lines, and a small number of support troops are gradually arriving.

However, neither of them gave a clear answer to the matter that Ebony cared about most.

When will they arrive?

Ebony has raised this issue more than once.

Dark Nether Death God's responses were always cautious, while Duolie was more concerned about how much power Locke had recently gained. After several attempts to contact him, Ebony had obtained a lot of information about the legion, but he still hadn't heard from those two personally.

He knew perfectly well what they were worried about.

If he were still sitting comfortably in his own Mother Time-Space, he wouldn't be in such a hurry to step forward in the face of Locke's current power.

But now it's Ebony who's getting beaten up!

A primal tremor came from the outside.

Ebony put away the two responses and instead pulled up the Communication Mark within the Myriad Phenomena Community.

This time, he didn't just send his own losses over.

A batch of Cutting-Edge Resources, enough to make even the Lord of Dimension take notice, were personally included in the subsequent payment rewards by him.

The Darkness Sword Time-Space wasn't so poor that it couldn't afford these things.

Those resource-rich areas hidden deep within, and the untapped reserves of resources, are the foundation he has accumulated over many years.

In the past, Ebony had never imagined that one day he would willingly pay such a high price to invite someone into the Mother Time-Space.

The mark of the Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord lit up first.

Following that, the connection between the Thunder Domain Time-Space and the Card Time-Space was also activated by Ebony.

His relationship with the latter two was far less close than his relationship with Dark Nether Death God and Duolie. Although they were all in the Myriad Phenomena Community, there wasn't much of a special bond between them that was worth mentioning individually.

However, Ebony has no intention of discussing any friendship with them right now.

The Resource List slowly unfolded to the other side, following his will.

If Locke eventually takes over those star regions that have not yet fallen, he will also have nothing left.

Rather than letting the Destruction Divine Kingdom be emptied after the war, it's better to bring it out now and hire some real helpers who can hold off the enemy!

"What I want is for you to come in person," Ebony said in a deep voice.

He added the last few resources and wealth items that he hadn't originally planned to pay for.
