Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

At the time of the incident at the Divine Light Army base, nearly all "Divine Illumination" Martial Cultivators of the Ninth Realm and "Longevity" Martial Cultivators of the Tenth Realm within and outside of the Sky Extreme Star sensed the abnormalities occurring there.

Some of the Stargazers, who were proficient in "Star Formation," even discerned a portion of the future 'fate' trajectory from the changes in the celestial formations visible in the sky.

Luo Wangshu was among them.

Although she was not a professional Stargazer, her Bloodline Ability allowed her to interpret some changes in the Star Formation, thereby grasping the future trends of the heavens and earth.

At that moment, she stood in the courtyard next to the third Divine Envoy Institute, her gaze confusedly lifted toward the sky.

The first thing Luo Wangshu observed was the Ninth Heavenly Demon Origin.

As the third Divine Envoy, she was not like those ignorant commoners who believed that the so-called 'Heavenly Demon Origin' was in another world, akin to Purgatory.

Luo Wangshu knew that the Ninth Heavenly Demon Origin was right above them, positioned above the 'Shen month' of the twelve moons of the Sky Extreme Star.

"Distortion and Destruction. Is this the power of the Twin Venerable? After several years, it has appeared again. How far have these Outer Heaven Demons advanced in their study of the Abyss Power?

Apart from pain and despair, there seems to be another force of Abyss Power, but unfortunately, it's too distant and the time too brief to identify."

After trying to discern further but garnering no results, Luo Wangshu slightly shook her head and began to focus on watching the 'stars' in the sky and the eight huge vortexes manifested by the Great Abyss in the sky.

The so-called 'stars' are actually the starlight reflections in the sky of the "Reach the Sky" Martial Cultivators in the Eight Realms, "Divine Illumination" in the Ninth Realm, and "Longevity" in the Tenth Realm.

After Martial Cultivators enter the Eight Realm, their Primordial Spirits resonate with the Heavenly Curtain, manifesting like stars above.

Surrounding the stars, there were eight incredibly vast vortexes, similar to bottomless black holes.

These 'Divine Illumination' Martial Cultivators turned into stars, almost all orbiting slowly around these Abyss vortexes.

—This is the Star Formation, representing the fate of all Sky Extreme Star Martial Cultivators.

A skilled Astrologer could also calculate the fate of each person on the Sky Extreme Star through the stars of these high-realm Martial Cultivators.

However, this extraordinary scene in the starry sky could only be seen by those with extremely powerful Bloodline Abilities in the Sixth Realm and Martial Cultivators of the Seventh Realm 'Divine Skills' and above.

Luo Wangshu then gasped in surprise and took an astonished step forward.

"What is this? Such a strange celestial formation, storm clouds in the sky spreading and dispersing, it seems like a cataclysmic disaster has been prevented. Is this situation, related to pain and despair, similar to what happened last June?"

After staring intently for a long time and failing to discern any reason, she could only shake her head slightly and give up further attempts to analyze the Star Formation.

She would later seek her good friend's advice, consulting a professional Stargazer.

The only thing she could see clearly was that the power of the 'ninth' Abyss was continuously growing, today being no exception.

Due to her particularly close relationship with her disciple, she could see this star obscured and suppressed by several Abysses.

Next, the eight Great Abyss seemed extremely enraged; they unleashed all their power into the air, on one hand, blocking and covering that ninth Abyss to prevent its 'Star Formation' from manifesting on the Heavenly Curtain; on the other hand, they were also fully suppressing those old gods that had already died.

—This indicated that the manifestation of the Abyss Star Formation on the Heavenly Curtain was crucial to becoming an Abyss. The Abyss would never allow this.

Luo Wangshu squinted her eyes, pondering that her disciple must have been working hard recently, which is why his 'Star Formation' had grown at such a rate, becoming robust enough in just two months to almost form a 'vortex', gaining the ability to influence the fate of others.

However, the speed of this growth still needed to accelerate.

In the current era, those old gods, relying on the so-called technology of the Outer Heaven Demons, were desperately trying to awaken; the three new gods of Purgatory also wanted to break free from Purgatory and return to the surface, causing all Stargazers to foresee the future disasters and drastic changes.

This could very well be an unprecedented major upheaval in the hundreds of thousands of years of history within Sky Extreme Star.

In the midst of this upheaval, only those with the greatest strength could control their own fate.

Just as the Star Map indicated, the fates of all high-level Martial Cultivators of the Sky Extreme Star revolved around the Abyss.

The future of all of them depended on these Abysses!

※※※※

At the secret base of the Divine Light Army, Lin Rui was staring blankly at the goddess in the dark void.

Lin Rui was certain that when he had first seen her, this goddess was in a dormant state, with her arms crossed over her chest and her eyes tightly closed, drifting in the void.

But in the moment that Lin Rui had a clear look at this goddess, she also opened her eyes and made eye contact with Lin Rui.

She showed no expression, just like Lin Yi earlier, displaying a dead-silent look with no emotional fluctuations.

Lin Rui was slightly startled, wondering if this Heavenly Venerate of Sorrow had already awakened?

He vaguely saw the goddess's lips move, as if she had said something to him, but Lin Rui couldn't hear clearly, only hearing some meaningless noise.

In the next instant, the scene before Lin Rui burst and dissipated like a bubble.

Lin Rui's face and orifices discharged a large amount of blood, his mouth coughing violently, shredding his lungs, his body bent like a shrimp.

Afterwards, large amounts of flesh were spewed from his mouth.

"Master!" Ji Xueying had already flashed to his side. She grabbed Lin Yi, who had fallen from the air, with one hand and instinctively reached out to support Lin Rui with the other.

Just as she extended her hand, a small portion of her right fingertips about the size of a fingernail burst open with a 'pop', shockingly twisted into powder by an extremely powerful distorting force!

"What is this?" Ji Xueying looked at her right hand, stunned and confused, "A concept of distortion?"

Although it wasn't at the level of the Abyss, it was incredibly powerful and wildly uncontrollable, self-generated, and so powerful that Ji Xueying couldn't react in time.

Lin Rui's pupils also constricted slightly, amazed to find the change in the pseudo "Abyss Source Core" inside him.

However, time was pressing, and Lin Rui had no time to investigate further.

About 2 seconds later, Lin Rui finally recovered his strength. Immediately, he took Lin Yi from Ji Xueying's hands and retreated at the fastest speed, "Let's go! Gong, how many Annihilation Bombs do you still have? Shells work too, use everything. We must completely destroy this area where the incident occurred, leave no trace. Gong, let Old Wang and Old Fei take care of planting them since your men are not suitable. Install a few extra bombs in Yi's room. Hurry, we don't have much time."

Gong Hengdao, being an experienced top-tier mercenary, had already arranged for his subordinates to plant bombs within the base and prepare for destroying any traces even before the 'Divine Battle' had started.

However, that was not enough—

Given the current situation inside this base, only an Antimatter Annihilation Bomb could completely destroy all traces.

Antimatter bombs were incredibly dangerous; a large-scale use could release strong electromagnetic pulses and gamma radiation and was hard to control in terms of the scale of the explosion.

If misused, its shockwave could even damage the structural integrity of Satellite No. 9, affecting the entire Base City.

Nevertheless, Lin Rui could no longer concern himself with these dangers; he had to use this Annihilation Bomb to destroy any Abyss traces he left, otherwise, his whole family would die.

Fortunately, the Divine Light Army's base was very secluded and remote, and there were no civilian residences nearby.

The Annihilation Bombs carried by their Combat Robots and Combat Mechas had a yield equivalent only to 120,000 tons of TNT, which presumably wouldn't result in severe consequences.

And while Lin Rui was running wildly, holding Lin Yi's delicate body, eager to get back to his secret base to save Lin Yi, he unexpectedly received a friend request from Jin Tianchen.

Lin Rui looked puzzled. What was Jin Tianchen thinking? Didn't this guy know they were dead set against each other? He still thought about adding him as a friend!
