Arc 257Invasion of Darkness Sword Space
Locke moved the Crystal Tide Wrath Beast into Paradise Lost, then led the Destruction Divine Kingdom’s invasion of the Darkness Sword Space. Ebony’s pleas brought the Source-Devouring forces and several outside powers into the war, leaving Locke and Saine facing an expanding coalition as more allies began to arrive.
- Locke and Saine stabilized the Crystal Tide Wrath Beast’s connections, guided it through the Bronze Gate, and helped it develop rudimentary consciousness.
- Locke brought the beast and his legions into Primordial Universe Time-Space and attacked Ebony’s Dark Sword Formation, forcing the Darkness Sword Organization to abandon strongholds and transport routes.
- The Destruction Legion advanced into the Darkness Sword Space, capturing facilities and territory while Ebony struggled to secure immediate military support.
- Ebony enlisted the Source-Devouring Progenitor, whose forces entered the war and established garrisons and passageways in Ebony’s territory.
- The World-Devouring Emperor Monarch joined Ebony against Locke, while Saine deployed the God of Machines and helped seize the Energy-Supply Starfield.
- Ebony secured the arrival of the Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord, the Myriad Law Thunder Emperor, and the Paper Figure Dimension Lord, who helped reinforce his defenses against Locke and Saine.
- Saine fought the Myriad Law Thunder Emperor and the World-Devouring Emperor Monarch as Locke pressed his assault on Ebony and the Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord.
- Ebony arranged further aid from the Dark Nether Death God, Duolie, the Lord of Eternal Day, and the Limitless Golden Emperor, while Saine prepared routes for arriving allies.
