Contending for the Eternal Throne

Chapter 45: Contending for the "Eternal Throne"

"Eternal Throne"?"

When Chen Yu received Xidra's report, he was busy setting up the Aether Phase Engine.

Currently, he had handed over the Federation's supreme military command to Gray Wind, while the Science and Technology Department, Resource Department, and others were managed by Xidra.

Any matters concerning the departments were generally handled by them, and they would resolve them perfectly.

He himself, however, was dedicating more of his energy to setting up the Aether Phase Engine.

The engine's setup had reached a critical juncture, and he didn't want to be distracted even slightly.

Simply setting up the Aether Phase Engine was a matter of engineering time.

It didn't require Chen Yu's full concentration, but the will of civilization he carried was, for reasons unknown, crowding his personal will.

Once his attention deviated from the Aether Phase Engine's progress, the entire civilization's will would incessantly transmit an unknown sense of palpitation to him.

This palpitation grew more severe, reaching a point where it greatly impacted Chen Yu's personal judgment.

Yet, he had no solution for it.

Even after Xidra checked on him several times, her efforts were in vain.

Although Xidra and Gray Wind were both nanite mechanical aggregates and their consciousnesses belonged to mechanical intelligence, they both possessed extremely powerful Psionics.

Within the entire Human Federation currently, their Psionic strength was likely second only to Chen Yu's.

Gray Wind's Psionic energy originated from the blessings of an unknown deity in the Void Realm.

Xidra's Psionics, on the other hand, stemmed from her own Star Rule Technology.

Star Rule Technology included an important fundamental material application—Star Brilliance Crystal.

This was a programmable material with four-dimensional folded structure characteristics.

Star Brilliance Crystal could self-repair and self-replicate by absorbing energy or matter provided by the outside world.

Xidra's consciousness was composed of a vast Star Brilliance Crystal data network, and the specific strength of a Psionic individual actually depended on their consciousness strength.

Xidra's Psionics were thus immeasurably powerful.

Xidra utilized her Psionics and Star Rule Technology to help Chen Yu conduct multiple repeated checks, but none could resolve his symptoms.

Having no other choice, Chen Yu could only spend the vast majority of his energy on the Aether Phase Engine, thereby suppressing the interference from the Federation's civilization will as much as possible.

When Chen Yu received news about the "World Breaker," he didn't react much. It was just a new natural disaster threat, commonplace. If it dared to come knocking, they would just fight it.

However, upon mentioning the "Eternal Throne," his attention was immediately diverted somewhat.

The "Eternal Throne" was a super-dimensional port capable of bestowing eternal life.

Its application effect was incredibly powerful, allowing those affected by it to exist in a reality devoid of fear, miracles, and any endings.

To explain it with a different logic: it could grant immortality!

That immortality wasn't referring to longevity or material immortality, but true, literal immortality!

An immortality that could not be killed, could not have its life journey terminated by any technology, any means, or any form!

For the Human Federation, the "Eternal Throne" was a supreme treasure.

As for how this treasure came about? Naturally, it was snatched.

Even in the previous universe, the Human Federation's technology wasn't advanced enough to create the "Eternal Throne."

During the conquest of the Milky Way Galaxy in the previous universe, one of the alien civilizations destroyed by the Federation possessed this treasure.

As for how that civilization obtained this treasure, it seemed they had also snatched it, from a group of high-dimensional demons called the "Formless Alien Envoys."

It was rumored that the original claimant of the "Eternal Throne" should have been a vast trans-dimensional empire.

The prosperity and flourishing of that civilization were built upon higher dimensions that transcended reality.

However, this empire was destroyed for unknown reasons, turning into ruins.

The group of high-dimensional demons called the "Formless Alien Envoys" were the descendants born under the residual glory of that trans-dimensional empire; they could be considered the last survivors.

Even as mere survivors, the brilliance of their civilization's history far surpassed imagination.

Calculated by the degree of time's passage, the civilization of the "Formless Alien Envoys" existed for a number of orders of magnitude greater than the known cosmic history of the previous universe.

According to the description of the alien civilization that seized the "Eternal Throne" from the "Formless Alien Envoys."

Although the civilization of the "Formless Alien Envoys" was extremely ancient and glorious, the collapse of that trans-dimensional empire forced them to retreat, making them extremely weak.

Because they were the losers of a succession war, other high-dimensional demons were constantly searching for the "Formless Alien Envoys."

Unfortunately, the last remnants of the "Formless Alien Envoys" were not discovered by other high-dimensional demons, but were unfortunately found by that alien civilization in the previous universe.

A great war erupted in the center of the Milky Way Galaxy in the previous universe.

After suffering a crushing defeat, the survivors of this high-dimensional civilization were made into "living specimens" and permanently displayed in the other civilization's museum.

The alien civilization that wielded the "Eternal Throne" did not last long either, eventually perishing under the crushing might of the Human Federation's powerful fleets.

Finally, after much effort, the supreme treasure "Eternal Throne" fell into the hands of the Federation.

And some of the leader individuals of that alien civilization, influenced by the "Eternal Throne," became immortal beings, impossible to kill or end their lives.

Therefore, Chen Yu ordered these aliens to be sent into the "Museum Celestial Pivot" to become permanent collections of the Federation.

Now, those high-dimensional demons called "Formless Alien Envoys" and the immortal beings from that alien civilization are imprisoned within the "Museum Celestial Pivot" established in a star system near the Tianjin Star System where the United Star is located.

The "Eternal Throne" has also been placed within this star system.

For the Federation, the current specific function of the "Eternal Throne" is merely a tool capable of mass-producing immortal beings.

However, behind it lies a succession war of a trans-dimensional empire.

Chen Yu had long been aware of this matter, but what he hadn't expected was that in the previous universe, neither he nor the Federation had encountered those trans-dimensional empire successors vying for the "Eternal Throne."

Now, in this universe, they had come knocking on his door.

These "World Breakers" descending from higher dimensions were clearly participants in this succession war.

What caught Chen Yu's attention was not the extent of the threat the "World Breakers" could pose to the Federation.

Rather, it was that in this succession war of the trans-dimensional empire, the "World Breakers" were merely one of the participants.

Subsequently, it was estimated that other successors would come knocking like sharks smelling blood.

Of course, this was merely Chen Yu's speculation.

He hoped the appearance of the "World Breakers" was just a coincidence...

Otherwise, these trans-dimensional empire successors could truly cross universes to find them one by one for the "Eternal Throne."

This would imply that the trans-dimensional empire whose succession they were fighting for was once a magnificent existence, similar to the "Void Realm," capable of spreading its influence across countless universes.

If that were the case, the reason for the destruction of this trans-dimensional empire would be worth Chen Yu's deep contemplation.
