The chaotic void beyond Origin Star trembled under the fury of the twelfth-rank Chaos Demon Ape. Each punch thrown by that terrifying figure, trillions of kilometers tall, seemed capable of tearing apart the entire starfield.
The demonic energy barrier jointly erected by the Abyss Demon Clan's three Transcendents continuously cracked, only to repair itself in an instant.
"Shakyamuni!"
The Chaos Demon Ape's roar pierced the chaotic heavens and exploded across the skies of the entire Origin Divine Continent.
"You dare collude with the Abyss to plot against my clan!"
Golden Buddhist light bloomed in the void as an equally majestic ancestral Buddha of the Shizu Civilization manifested his true form.
Seated upon a twelve-petaled golden lotus, with seven rings of merit light slowly rotating behind his head, his expression remained as placid as an ancient well as he said:
"Life and death within Origin Star are dictated by fate. Everything has its destined course. Ancestor Yan, you have become attached to appearances!"
These words were like a fuse, instantly stirring the Transcendent forces that had originally been locked in confrontation.
Although the Shizu Civilization of the Shattered Star Sea was not weak, its strongest expert was only at the eleventh rank. Since this ancestral Buddha Shakyamuni dared provoke a Transcendent so openly, he must have support behind him.
Many forces saw this clearly and guessed that a war involving Transcendents was likely unavoidable. Such a development naturally caused an enormous uproar at once.
Even the Transcendent forces reacted this way, let alone all the other factions.
In the territory occupied by the Four-Clan Alliance, the Genesis Mechanical Civilization's Heaven-Annihilating Divine Machine and Red-Maned Lion Divine Machine suddenly disassembled, transforming into billions of nano-machine torrents and retreating far away—these cold silicon-based lifeforms understood how to assess the situation better than anyone.
