The War Escalates, the Factions Convene, and the Sovereigns Descend
In the mortal realm, Wang An sensed that the Great Emperor of Fengdu's cultivation had finally increased, and indeed, he no longer needed to go through the trouble of obtaining the Void Certificate. However, it was difficult to find even a few Yin Souls in the Netherworld who could bear the rank of [Attendant God].
It is not easy to quickly delegate more authority, make room for the law of reincarnation.
"We still need to see. If we manage to hunt down a few more Ghost Lords or Ghost Sovereigns during this Ghost Clan rebellion, we might be able to advance directly to the Later Realm."
Time flies by, but for other civilizations, it is not fast, but rather long.
Endless wars, battles that could break out at any moment, a battlefield spanning 4,000 light-years.
The most prominent of these is the Terra front, and the northwest is also constantly embroiled in battles of all sizes, bordering the Gold Human Race to the west and the Beast Clan Alliance's Cang Dragon Star Domain to the north.
The area in between, nearly 1200 light-years long, is almost entirely a dead zone.
This place was originally a divine kingdom and a territory of beastmen, but this territory did not conform to the territory system established by the Galactic Transcendent Council.
They were the spies planted by the Pantheon Kingdom and the Beast Clan Alliance within the Human Alliance. Before the first wave of Ghost Clan invasion, they decisively fled into the heart of the Alliance's territory with a large amount of important assets.
After several rounds of occupation and counterattacks, it has long been turned into a dead zone, of little use to the Ghost Clan in the short term, and requires long-term management.
After the last great war, the Silver Human Race, which was originally behind the Black Iron Human Race and the Terran Human Race, followed suit and decisively abandoned a small part of the star field, dividing the battle lines and introducing the Cang Dragon Star Domain, which had always maintained a hostile relationship with them.
After doing so, the Earth Ghost Dao, which was the main force attacking this area, naturally and decisively abandoned the Silver Human Race, who had many allies supporting their joint defense, and instead attacked the Beast Clan Alliance, which had a larger area, more territory, and simpler defensive facilities.
Thus, although the middle route between the Gold Human Race and the Silver Human Race has been opened, it has given them a great deal of breathing room, avoiding the strategic predicament of being attacked from both sides and caught in the crossfire.
As Wang An had predicted, the three Cang Dragon Clan kings of the Cang Dragon Star Domain, upon discovering the concentrated invasion of the terrestrial ghost ships at the border, attempted to gather most of the Beast Clan Alliance's forces to defend the line, forcing the terrestrial ghost ships to attack.
However, they overestimated their own appeal and underestimated the fear that the major Dinosaur Clan factions had of them.
This time, three Azure Dragon Clan kings were dispatched to resist, and together with the Boundless Sea Dragon King died in the last battle, the Cang Dragon Clan actually possesses the combat power of four kings.
Even the strongest Tyrannosaurus Clan only has three. Although these three are all Middle Realm or higher Tyrant Dragon King, or even Later Realm beings, the appearance of four in one era is undoubtedly a cause for concern.
Therefore, apart from the two kings from the two major orc races nearby sending reinforcements, they had no other support on their side.
Thus, even if the strongest Ghost Lord did not make a move, it would be difficult for the twelve Earth Ghost Dao Lords to withstand the five Beast Kings who had survived the apocalypse and escaped the catastrophe that destroyed the Mother Realm.
The entire battle ended almost one-sidedly, and the Orc King, realizing the unfavorable situation, had already prepared to retreat.
Almost as soon as one of the beastmen kings was slightly injured, all the beastmen kings tacitly retreated, ceasing their fight and decisively retreating into the Land Lizard Crocodile Star Domain, Titan Python Star Domain, and Pterosaur Star Domain, which are adjacent to the Azure Dragon Star Domain.
This immediately exposed the territories of the three civilizations of the Orc Beast Clan Alliance to the attack route of the Earth Ghost Dao, and even involved the Land Lizard Crocodile Clan, the Bow Shark Clan behind them, and the Helicoprion Clan behind the Eastern Pterosaur Star Domain.
Furthermore, by bypassing the Bronze Star Domain and directly attacking the Spinosaurus Star Domain, they could penetrate the Human Ghost Dao.
In just a few decades, most of the Beast Clan Alliance's territory was drawn into this war.
This directly shook the entire Beast Clan Alliance, and a large number of discontented voices spread within the Beast Clan Alliance. At this time, the [Terror Dragon King] stepped forward to point out the key issue and unify the thoughts and stances of the entire Beast Clan Alliance.
At the same time, he followed suit and threatened the Humanoid Alliance further east, as well as the Mechanical Court and the Myriad Gods' Kingdom Domain that occupied the two main spiral arms to the north, demanding that they open some passages so that other alliance forces could take over the battle lines and share the firepower.
This incident alone brought the matter directly to the Galactic Transcendent Council for discussion.
At this time, he was still refining his flying sword, adding various High Tier magical materials to increase its strength. He also received an invitation to participate as a councilor and the leader of a human civilization. Lu Tianxin was also invited.
Heavenly River Dao Palace, two people sat cross-legged, leisurely brewing tea and appreciating its fragrance.
They imbued the real-time communication crystal into their divine consciousness, allowing it to enter the council's online meeting.
In a void world, various Dharma Manifestation and divine bodies manifested enormous forms and stood tall.
Everyone was arranged into six groups according to their faction affiliation. On the side of the five human races, there were a total of eight High Tier Dharma Manifestation standing, Zhonghuang, two Silver, one Bronze, two Black Iron, and one Terra.
Beside them were the Beast Clan Alliance and the Humanoid Alliance. The Beast Clan Alliance alone had 17 Orc Kings who had come just once, more than twice as many as the Human Alliance.
The Humanoid Alliance, besides the High Elves and Dwarves who each have three or four kings, has seven or eight kings from other races, for a total of 14 kings appearing.
Despite their great strength, they are composed of numerous races and are extremely disunited.
Opposite them lay the massive mechanical planet of the Mechanical Court, and the various divine lords who resided year-round in the Kingdom of Faith, each of whom was not to be trifled with.
Although only 12 kings of the Mechanical Court have appeared, their war potential is almost 1.5 times that of an ordinary king, making them incredibly powerful.
The Myriad Gods' Kingdom Domain, though called the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Gods, actually only has 22 God Lords who can come here, making it the strongest of the five major powers.
The truly massive force is actually the Mixed Sea Market side, which, in addition to the five maritime cities located in hidden places, also includes a large number of independent civilizations occupying the outermost star systems of the Milky Way.
These smaller factions have close ties with the Mixed Sea Market and frequently hold various trade fairs. They have quite a few High Tier kings in total, according to Wang An's observations, numbering 49.
Although they appear to be numerous, most of them are at the Initial Realm of the King realm, and some Kings whose life force is extremely ancient and whose laws are about to collapse are still stuck at the Initial Realm.
This is the realm of most kings who have abandoned their race or whose race has been wiped out. They can only stay in the Initial Realm for almost their entire lives. Compared with the other five major forces, the Transcendent System is weak, has no future, and has scarce resources.
Of course, this excludes the Five Seas Market, which are the true top-tier forces. However, they seem to control special channels to the Andromeda Galaxy and Triangulum Galaxy, making them cross-border forces that don't participate much in the struggle for core territories.
Out of respect, the Galactic Council also invited them, but only as spectators.
As the deadline approached, three beams of light, reaching to the heavens and the earth, descended upon this place, and the vast Dao slowly unfolded at a higher level.
The Great Dao of Evolution of Great Dao of Metamorphosis of Metamorphosis, and the Great Dao of Evolving intertwine and unfold. Relying on the primordial Taiyi intent within the Supreme Spiritual Treasure Supreme One Dao Evolution Heaven-Mixing Ring, he can glimpse a corner of the Great Daos of these three Transcendent Tier races.
With just one kick, he gained a great deal, then instantly forgot nine-tenths of it, leaving only one-tenth of the essence within his true spirit, waiting for him to carefully process it.
As the light faded, it Avatar of three Transcendent Tier rulers.
The [Abyssal Power Sovereign] exists in the form of a black hole, neither near nor far; the [True Metamorphosis Sovereign] exists in the form of a cicada in the pure white starry sky; and the [Mathematical Sovereign] exists in the form of pure data and information.
Three Transcendent Tier rulers descended, Eternal Dharma King, as the nominal strongest member of the Human Alliance, led the others in bowing to him.
Apart from the Mixed Sea Market, the other four forces were all led by a top-tier expert to pay their respects, showing respect for the Transcendent Tier beings.
"We pay our respects to the arrival of the supreme rulers!"
The black hole form is the most active of the three. The other two hardly care about the internal affairs of the Milky Way anymore. Only this one is still presiding over the joining of newly formed High Tier civilizations into the Galactic Transcendent Council, which is quite responsible.
Therefore, after the kings had paid their respects, He invoked the primordial power and conveyed His will. "Kings of all races, there is no need for further formalities. Let us now begin this discussion."
There's only one thing to do this time: how to deal with the invasion of the three major escaped forces from the three realms. After all, combined, they're not much smaller than the five core forces of the Milky Way.
The [Terror Dragon King], who was extremely arrogant in the Beastman Alliance and clamored to lead the Ghost Clan to invade the territories of other alliance forces, was surprisingly pragmatic this time, showing none of his arrogance or willingness to perish together with everyone.
"Three Sovereigns, our Beast Clan Alliance believes that this crisis can only be addressed by the combined efforts of the five forces. The enemy also possesses an extremely powerful individual nearing the Perfected Dao Realm. Among the various races and forces in the Milky Way, only the [Myriad Spirits Divine Lord] of the Myriad Gods' Kingdom Domain on the surface possesses such strength."
"Therefore, the Beast Clan Alliance strongly demands that all parties send powerful figures to form a battle line, forcing the fleeing forces from the three realms to cease their invasion. We believe it is feasible to grant them control over most of the territories of the Initial Tier Middle Tier civilizations to alleviate their demands."
[Terror Dragon King]'s words were extremely insightful, taking into account the implementation plan, achieving the objective, and ultimately alleviating the conflict and delaying the outbreak of war.
