Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day

Chapter 43 You're Just Trading Bases!

Chapter 611 The Forty-Third Battle: You're Swapping Bases?! (7200 Words, Seeking Monthly Tickets!)

At this moment, Tain the Seer, or rather the 'Council of Serostia', presented Su Zhou with a mental projection from beyond the Milky Way.

Thus, the youth saw a galaxy completely enveloped in a dim yellow halo.

In the dark vacuum, without the light of stars, there is near absolute zero, complete darkness.

But that star region was different. Without a source, a dim light that illuminated every part of that region for a long time shone upon the world, and layers of cosmic mist, like dust or sandstorms, completely covered that star region.

If one observed carefully, one would find that those dust particles were essentially fragments of stars, remnants of suns, countless wrecks of warships, and even the fused skeletons of some colossal creatures... This was a battlefield, an unprecedented battlefield. Warships and monsters with a mass exceeding multiple suns fought here, and their remains, not yet cleared, formed a dense, artificial nebula.

"This feeling..."

Staring at this star region shrouded in a nebula of corpses, Su Zhou couldn't help but become solemn. Even though it was relayed by the Council of Serostia, he felt an incredibly thick aura of blood and war, or rather, unbelievable spiritual remnants, lingering in that star region.

If a Sub-Lord Earth Immortal were to rashly approach that star region, they would inevitably be attacked by the endless spiritual interference lurking around, leading to madness and insanity.

"This is, the Twilight Star Region?"

Speaking seriously, questioning the Serostia Elders across time and space, Su Zhou took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "What do you want to show me?"

[Be patient, Venerable Su. Your power is immense, and precisely because of this, you should know more of the truth.]

The voice of Grand Elder Amorot came through the mouth of Tain the Seer, his tone complex, as if showing an ally his scars.

But soon, the old man's tone returned to calm: [This is the Twilight Star Region five days ago, our home planet, also the starting point of the War of Apostasy, where we and many Otherworld Evil Gods fought each other, vying for the Galaxy Star.]

[Then, this is the Twilight Star Region recently, when the anomaly occurred.]

With that said, the entire light screen began to change—under Su Zhou's gaze, in the core of the originally dim yellow Twilight Star Region, at the original sun, beams of deep purple and dark red light suddenly lit up.

These rays of light were like a thick paintbrush randomly sketching on the black curtain of the universe. They spread out in a radiating pattern in all directions, piercing the entire star region.

Then, accompanied by the terrifying roar of the spirit world shattering, the source of these rays of light, the core of the Twilight Star Region, suddenly resounded with a vibration like a large drum being struck.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

And what pulsated with it was not the star region... but the entire universe itself!

Accompanied by a large number of deep, dark, abyss-like dim cracks spreading from the center of the Twilight Star Region, a huge spacetime bulge rippled throughout the entire star region's range with the violent drumming, and even spread beyond the star region at faster-than-light speed.

And after the bulge, spacetime sank again. Light was bent as a result, and a large amount of nebular material began to converge towards that mass sinkhole, forming straight material flows, like a spiderweb structure... But soon, there was another huge tremor. Incredibly, a spacetime bulge, 0.8 light-years long, appeared in the center of the entire Twilight Star Region, once again tearing out a large number of spacetime cracks.

This scene, this scene, was as if some immensely huge and terrifying existence, powerful beyond human comprehension, was charging from outside the universe, intending to break into this universe.

"What the hell, this is too exaggerated!"

Seeing this scene, Su Zhou couldn't help but gasp.

He had seen black holes, seen nebulae, and if the Heavenly Stellar Unification Dao Integration Art of the Grand Divine Emperor of the Heavens could be counted, he had even seen a supernova explosion.

He had witnessed the battles of the strongest beings in this universe through the power of the Hong Ming Underworld Master. He knew that the battles of the strongest Ω-level psionicists, the Heavenly Emperors, could destroy stars, comparable to the accretion disk impacts of giant black holes.

In the presence of those strong beings, light itself would be distorted.

But all of this could not compare to the scene he was witnessing now.

The entire Twilight Star Region was flashing, as if something huge was flying from the void beyond the multiverse, colliding with the outer wall of the sealed universe.

Although it failed, it did not stop, still launching attacks, again and again.

One after another, dark cracks were torn open, and the structure of the universe was destroyed. It could also be observed that in those dark cracks, many warships, or strangely shaped monsters, took the opportunity to emerge from the cracks and reach the interior of the Twilight Star Region.

They were also Evil God Kin, only with less power.

And the being impacting the universe, if that power had to be calculated, it absolutely exceeded the limit of the Heavenly Emperor, reaching above the immortal Heavenly Immortal Heavenly Emperor, which could be called 'Dao Integration', 'Creation', or 'Returning to the Void and Integrating with the Dao'!

"The kin of a Great Existence that is at least at the Returning to the Void and Integrating with the Dao realm are impacting our world from the outside of the universe and creating a large number of spacetime cracks!"

"Although He Himself can't come over, He has allowed a large number of Twilight Kin, or the kin of other Great Existences, to have the opportunity to enter!"

Not only that.

[The cracks in our solar system are actually small matters.]

Grand Elder Amorot's voice was more solemn than ever: [What we need to worry about even more is the largest spacetime crack in this observable universe... the super spacetime crack located near the 'Great Attractor' at the gravitational center of the 'Laniakea Supercluster'!]

[Now that Evil God Kin have begun to impact our Twilight Star Region, is the Great Attractor crack at the center of the supercluster also under attack?]

"Laniakea Supercluster..." Su Zhou repeated the term subconsciously.

This was a familiar term.

Just now, Su Zhou had heard this term in the memories related to the Star Eater and the Void Sect Leader.

In an even more ancient cosmic era, when the previous generation of super-civilization still existed, to compete for the Seal of the End, many powerful and ancient pioneer ancestral civilizations fought each other endlessly, and the entire Laniakea Supercluster was their battlefield.

The intensity of that war exceeded the imagination of all existing civilizations today. Their battles even created cosmic-level tremors, causing more fragments of the Great Seal—such as the Heavenly God Standard and the Galaxy Star—to fall, and causing all participating civilizations to feel fear.

And the so-called Great Attractor is the core of the entire Laniakea Supercluster in terms of mass.

This supercluster contains nearly five hundred known galaxy clusters and galaxy groups. In other words, it has more than 100,000 Milky Ways within it, with a diameter of over 500 million light-years. The entire Milky Way is just on a branch of this supercluster structure.

In the observable universe, the Laniakea Supercluster is considered a not-small structure, and the Great Attractor is the gravitational center of this supercluster.

Its mass is at least 20,000 times that of the Milky Way, dragging all matter within hundreds of millions of light-years to rotate and approach it as its center, just as the Milky Way is constantly approaching it at a speed of 2.2 million kilometers per hour.

And the super spacetime crack located around the Great Attractor...

"Could it be that the 'living star' seen by the Star Eater and the Void Sect Leader was created by ancient civilizations to seal the spacetime crack around the Great Attractor?"

As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Su Zhou immediately understood, "Yes, just like the seal in the Twilight Star Region, the cosmic crack suppressed by that living star must not be just a galaxy-level crack—what it suppresses should be the super crack created by the civilizations that fought for the Seal of the End at the center of the past battlefield!"

At this moment, with the help of the Council of Serostia, the distant cosmic star region reappeared before Su Zhou's eyes.

The location of the Great Attractor.

In the dark universe, a cluster of dazzling nebular light was shining. The vicinity of the Great Attractor was not a dark wasteland, but a place where countless high-density stellar materials moved, a place of shining light.

Countless dense nebular materials surged, dyeing the entire cosmic space white with dazzling light, interwoven into intricate structures.

However, within this extraordinarily pure white cosmic space, there was a vast dark structure, like an 'eye,' that was vibrating spacetime, causing spacetime to shatter and warp.

This eye-like cosmic structure was a vast and unbelievably long unnatural crack. Around it, there were many stellar objects that looked like dust, making its structure appear even more majestic and terrifying.

In the center of this dark crack, the eye structure, there was a vortex-like energy structure rotating, as if tempting people to go to the other side, or as if it was about to spew out something enormous.

It seemed to lead directly to the other side of the multiverse void, a passage connecting one universe to another.

It could be seen that around this crack, there were a large number of monitoring arrays and signal towers of various types, both ancient and new, made of metal or crystal. Many communication beacons left by civilizations of unknown origin were still operating, flashing specks of light, faithfully transmitting information about this place to distant spacetime, to the location of their mother civilizations, telling them about the current situation of this crack.

The Serostia civilization was one of them.

[This is where the Great Attractor spacetime crack is located... Currently, it is the largest active spacetime crack that we can find in the entire observable universe.]

The Grand Elder's voice rang out again: [As of now, the Great Attractor crack remains stable. It does not seem to have any entities beginning to impact it, like the Twilight crack, but we must still be vigilant—because what created this crack was the ancestor of all Void Sects in this universe, the first Apostle of the Twilight Evil God!]

[If another such being comes to our universe, we, who are not as powerful as the ancestral civilizations of the past, will not be able to stop the destruction of the universe!]

And Su Zhou solemnly stared at that cosmic structure-level super crack.

Before it, stars were but dust, planetary systems but debris. The existence that could open such a crack, with a length calculated in light-years, surpassed all civilizations' understanding of 'power.'

In the distant past, countless civilizations fought here. Even now, it was an area where all civilizations that could leave their mark in the galaxy had observation stations, because everyone knew that if it really showed any abnormalities, then all love and hate, all grievances and feuds, all conflicts and disputes, should be stopped.

Because for the sake of the universe's ending or not, all civilizations must join hands to deal with this disaster.

In response, Su Zhou did not immediately ask the Serostia Elders any questions.

Nor was it necessary to ask, because of the Star Eater's memories, he knew even more about the information of this seal and crack than they might.

Su Zhou spoke, asking the red snake spirit on his shoulder.

"Yala..."

His tone was heavy, with a hint of disbelief: "I never asked before which Great Existence was stronger, because these are meaningless... but now it's different."

"Tell me, Yala... Twilight... how strong is Twilight exactly?!"

Su Zhou's voice fell, but was greeted only by silence.

Until a long time later, the youth, who thought he wouldn't get an answer, heard a sigh.

"Alas..."

Crouching on Su Zhou's shoulder, flicking its tongue, Yala, who rarely seemed a little anxious, said rather helplessly, "Didn't I tell you before?"

"The source of the Correct War... is the 'Twilight Extermination War.'"

"Twilight is so powerful that most Great Existences need to join forces to truly 'defeat' Him."

"He is one of the most powerful Great Existences... one of them!"

Yala didn't lie.

The youth understood everything very well.

To be able to make such an awkward Chaos reluctantly admit 'the strongest'... that was enough to prove its worth!

"...I see, I understand."

At this point, Su Zhou also restrained his shock.

At this moment, he wasn't particularly surprised. Rather, he felt that it was very normal.

Obviously, above the Heavenly Emperor, above the Returning to the Void and Integrating with the Dao, there were still several realm levels before one could touch the heels of a Great Existence.

It was just that these realm levels had already surpassed the limits that a universe, a civilization on a planet, could touch—the immortal god civilizations of over 400,000 years could only touch the Heavenly Immortal realm, which was already very powerful.

But not to mention the multiverse, just talking about the lifespan of the universe, it exceeded tens of billions of years.

Using the power of an individual, the knowledge of a civilization, to pursue the mass of a ten-billion-year-old universe, how could that be easily caught up?

"The Great Attractor crack is related to the 'Seal of the End'... and to get clues to the Seal of the End, we need to wipe out the Void Sect in our Milky Way first."

Breathing out, Su Zhou thought about it and felt that the process was very clear: "And now, I'm being besieged by the Void Sect."

"It's pretty clear."

At the same time, the voice of the Council of Serostia rang out again.

[Our ancestors were to stop such monsters from entering our world.]

[In fact, the civilizations before us must have done the same. The currently stable seal of the Great Attractor crack is their creation.]

The Grand Elder's purpose had been achieved. He was very clear that Su Zhou could understand his meaning and know the seriousness of the current situation of the universe.

His voice was steady and clear: [As you can see, with the revival of spiritual energy, Evil God Kin from outside our universe will also return and impact the Twilight crack, and their power has become even stronger in these thousands of years, so much so that we have no way to stop them now.]

[With the power of the Galaxy Star, we can still strengthen the seal of the Twilight Star Region... but even if we can strengthen the seal, we cannot stop the activation of all kinds of Evil God Kin in the entire universe.]

[Just the disasters in the Milky Way require us to join forces to deal with.]

Before Su Zhou's eyes, the light screen about the Twilight Star Region gradually dissipated.

What replaced it was the star chart of the entire Milky Way.

He could see that a large number of labels marked with 'dim yellow' were surging like a tide from all directions of the entire Milky Way towards the third spiral arm of the Milky Way, which was the direction where 'he' was located.

This scene was like countless tentacles composed of yellow squares and dots attaching themselves to Su Zhou from countless angles in three-dimensional space.

"Good fellow!"

Breathing out, Su Zhou showed a strange smile: "It's a little more excessive than I guessed—isn't this the entire Milky Way's Twilight Kin starting to gather?"

Under this simple believer identifier, represented the departure of a large fleet or behemoth, setting off, locking on to the target, and advancing...

Su Zhou was their target. The Heavenly God Standard in Su Zhou's hand was like a piece of candy in front of an ant nest, so tempting that all Twilight Kin couldn't refuse.

That was the key to opening the seal of the 'Great Attractor crack', the prelude to the destruction of the entire universe.

Only by obtaining it could the Void Sect carry out their subsequent actions.

An unbelievable torrent of Twilight Kin was rushing towards the direction where the youth was located, intending to completely submerge him.

[Don't worry.]

However, the Grand Elder's voice, filled with laughter, continued to come: [Take a look at this again.]

As the voice fell, large swathes of colorful labels suddenly appeared on the entire star chart.

Those were the labels representing many other high-level civilizations in the Milky Way that had already made a name for themselves in the solar system before the Era of Silence!

And these labels... these civilization labels that had also fought against the Twilight Kin and the Void Sect in the past, were now also beginning to move, beginning to fly towards the third spiral arm of the Milky Way, where Su Zhou was!

These civilizations were also advancing, and their reasons for advancing were very simple.

That was, not to let the Void Sect complete their goals!

[Our fleet is indeed being held back, which is very regrettable.]

At this moment, the voice of the Council of Serostia slowly rang out, His voice was filled with laughter: [But, with our former title of 'Galaxy Superpower', and the past infamy of the Void Sect... we still successfully gathered a large number of reinforcements to stop those monsters who only know how to bring destruction and nothingness.]

[This is not just helping you, but helping all of us—if we don't stop the convergence of the Void Sect here, it will be even more difficult to stop them in the future.]

After telling Su Zhou all this information, the voice of Grand Elder Amorot gradually lowered.

[Before the reinforcements arrive, Venerable Su, your fleet may need to fight alone for a while...]

[So, please hold on as much as possible. Our Golden Fleet will arrive as soon as possible and become your support!]

"Yeah, I know."

In response, Su Zhou closed his eyes.

The light screen before his eyes dissipated one by one, whether it was the Great Attractor crack, the giant star chart representing the entire Milky Way, or the terrifying anomalies that appeared in the Twilight Star Region before, all of this turned into nothing as Su Zhou opened his eyes again.

"Fight alone, huh..."

Muttering to himself, Su Zhou couldn't help but chuckle softly: "It's more like the fact that there are reinforcements is unexpectedly good news."

"Marshal, what's the situation?"

At this moment, sensing that Su Zhou's communication with the Serostians had ended, Tang Yuan, as the commander of the Earth Fleet, asked: "What should we do next?"

"I've changed my mind."

And Su Zhou simply replied: "Being passively beaten and waiting for other Twilight Kin to run over and chase us around is indeed not very in line with my style."

"Huh?" Hearing this sentence, Tang Yuan couldn't help but be surprised, and then his voice trembled a little: "Could it be that, Marshal, you plan to... charge over and counterattack the Twilight Kin's fleet?!"

"Unacceptable, Marshal! Although you are now..."

Originally, what Tang Yuan wanted to say was that Su Zhou was indeed very strong now, but facing the Twilight Kin, the Void Sect's endless fleets, he might not be able to hold on and would be defeated.

But after thinking about it with his conscience, this young secretary suddenly realized, how could Su Zhou not be able to hold on?

What a joke, the entire Twilight Kin's main force might really be able to defeat Su Zhou, but those ordinary Kin fleets, being able to tug at Su Zhou's legs would be considered that their technology was developed and their strength was powerful—not to mention, his old man could find another moon and rampage in the universe, how many civilizations' fleets could break a celestial body protected by a Heavenly Immortal?

Wasn't this a joke, so he got stuck halfway through.

"Hahaha, don't be like this, you're making me laugh."

And Su Zhou's No-Thought Heart could sense Tang Yuan's inner activities, and he couldn't help but be amused by the scene in the other party's mind of himself pushing a planet and running around the universe with the Earth Fleet—not to mention, this was really a good choice.

Wandering planet fleet? Not bad, not bad, this inspiration must be used next time!

But soon, he still returned to normal, Su Zhou said calmly: "Continue to find a black hole star system, this will not change—no matter what action, it's always right to find a trash can first."

"As for the details of the next task... it will have to be changed."

"How are you going to change it, Su Zhou?"

Hearing this, Yala, who was attached to Su Zhou, couldn't help but be a little curious. He asked with interest: "Do you have a plan to take the initiative?"

"Of course I do."

In the vacuum of the universe, Su Zhou smiled meaningfully: "Moreover, it will definitely be a plan that will surprise everyone."

In the next instant, he took out the 'Heavenly God Standard' from his personal space.

On the silver metal pocket watch, various colors of light were flashing, flowing with obvious Great Existence auras... Divine Tree, Reincarnation, Chaos, Perfection, had already occupied the four positions on this pocket watch.

And at this moment, Su Zhou took out the fifth group of Great Existence aura.

Originating from the Star Eater Kroat—the aura of Twilight!

"Want to catch me?"

Saying so, in Yala's expression and voice of sudden realization and laughter, Su Zhou unhesitatingly stuffed this group of Twilight aura into the Heavenly God Standard: "Want to get the Heavenly God Standard?!"

As this voice, filled with a hint of ruthlessness and decisiveness, rang out, the Heavenly God Standard, touching that dim yellow light mist, immediately lit up again with silver-white brilliance.

It shone incomparably, the light it emitted far exceeded that of a star, but it was not hot, and even carried a hint of metallic coldness... Unimaginable spacetime fluctuations rippled in layers in the cosmic space. It seemed to be about to open a spacetime door, but it was suppressed by its holder, Su Zhou, so it didn't really open.

But even so, a looming, dim yellow degree, also appeared on the Heavenly God Standard!

At the same time.

Unspeakable fluctuations spread throughout the entire Milky Way.

[This, this aura...]

[Pure and unparalleled, an aura originating from the world of the Great Venerable?!]

[How could it be, even when the Twilight Star Region crack opened wide in the past, the aura was not so pure, how is this possible?!]

[Unbelievable!]

The tremors, transmitted at speeds exceeding that of light, caused all the Twilight Kin to be stunned for a moment, and then they all fell into a fanatical state.

[Is it still that α psionicist from the Earth civilization?! Is he transmitting this aura?!]

[As expected of a fragment of the seal, it really has a powerful force that we cannot understand... With that fragment, perhaps we can directly contact the world where the ancient Venerable is located without unlocking the Great Attractor crack!]

[We must get it!]

In an instant, the speeds of all the marching Twilight Kin and Void Sect member fleets all increased in unison.

And the original few fleets that were supposed to encircle the Earth also immediately turned around and rushed towards the direction where Su Zhou was without hesitation!

March, march, march!

The Twilight army was marching with a human, an individual, as their target!

At this moment, in the dark starry sky, Su Zhou raised his head and looked around the universe.

The sky full of stars transformed into rivers, the star sea flowed, vibrated non-stop, as if it was playing a symphony.

Behind him, the gradually collapsing stellar material of Ross 128 was shining, the dazzling light gradually filled the entire Huoxi Star Region, making this planetary system about to become an area covered by newborn nebulae.

And in front of him, in the endless universe, hundreds of millions of stars were shining.

Among those twinkling specks of light, there were enemies that could be compared to stars, and even exceeded the number of stars, advancing towards him!

But Su Zhou didn't care about this.

Clenching the Heavenly God Standard, the youth, sensing the Twilight aura on it, showed a genuine smile.

"Don't you want to catch me?"

"When the time comes, I'll go directly to your hometown!"

--He, Su Zhou, was the best at swapping bases!

Seeking monthly tickets at the end of the month!

There will be another chapter later, you can read it when you wake up tomorrow!
