A Scroll of Infinite Glory

Chapter 553 The Frenzy Approaches, Stars Dim

Red-Eyed Sachs is one of the biggest beneficiaries of the biotechnology inside GalaxyEye.

Over the years, they screened hundreds of billions of members in the same series of projects, and in the end, fewer than twenty completed all the enhancement projects.

Of these twenty finished products, only the saxophone, through the trials of long-term warfare, broke through to the seventh star level and ascended to the throne of one of the five-colored eyes.

After the three Reincarnator chapters entered the native universe, the Galaxy Eye and the City Beyond began several collaborations.

Having obtained cell modification and evolution data from the "City Beyond", Sachs' current strength has firmly reached the advanced level of the Seven Stars.

When Thunderbolt and Vanguard teleported from a distant star system and launched a surprise attack, Sachs was indeed slightly surprised, but he quickly realized their true strength.

"You two dare to get close and gang up on me?!"

In fact, when Thunderbolt and Vanguard launched their combined attack, the blade light and energy spread rapidly, swirling and cutting, entangling and swallowing Red-Eyed Sachs.

However, their true forms were only on the outer edge of this luminous sphere, at least five thousand miles away from Sachs, who had already been swallowed up to the center of the sphere.

However, a high-level Seven Star expert, if not interfered with by an expert of the same level, can unleash his power at will, and with a mere gesture, he can shake the void for hundreds of thousands of miles and destroy a giant planet in one move.

To Sachs, a mere five thousand miles was no different from being right next to him.

As he spoke, the horn-shaped scimitar in his hand, which resembled a blood diamond, emitted a violent shockwave, sounding like a clang of a blade.

The crystals that make up the blade appear perfectly smooth, but they are actually composed of countless tiny facets that constantly refract, constrain, and concentrate the energy emanating from the saxophone's body onto the blade, preparing it to be released in a more efficient way.

He raised his hand and slashed.

In space, a giant sphere formed by the convergence of red and blue light was instantly cleaved in two by a crescent-shaped, blood-red blade of energy.

A waning moon hung across the sky, and then, the enormous red blade of energy suddenly shattered.

The fragments of the sword energy did not scatter randomly, but instead shot out in one direction, like thousands of red lights converging into a raging torrent.

Where the torrent flows, lies the true form of Thunderbolt and Vanguard.

However, the two robots showed no sign of panic as they watched their special attack's beam of light be cleaved in two with a single strike.

They only slightly changed direction, and the red and blue light continued to revolve like twin stars. This time, the vortex of light formed by the rotation was only ten kilometers in diameter.

The torrent of blood-red sword energy was immediately swallowed up upon encountering the red and blue light.

That sphere, which had a diameter of ten thousand miles, had clearly been cleaved in two by Red-Eyed Sachs's swordsmanship, yet now it was undergoing a strange transformation.

Even when severed, all the red and blue lines that make up this sphere still possess a kind of spirituality, interwoven in all directions.

It is precisely because of this huge gap in the sphere that more and more flexible options emerge when all the linear qi intertwine and recombine.

Sachs felt as if the space around him had almost solidified, and the pressure increased dramatically.

The shattered sphere shrank violently, shrinking to a size of about 100 kilometers in diameter. The once orderly red and blue light rays became more than a thousand times more complex.

Sachs felt a chill run down his spine and swung his sword diagonally again.

Just as his blood-red blade energy was about to strike the red and blue lines again, something vaguely appeared outside the ball of lines.

The crimson blade energy and the unidentified object collided through the ball of thread, one inside and one outside.

The crimson blade energy immediately weakened, failing to sever the silk threads decisively. Instead, it caused the threads to become disordered and re-woven, adding further uncertainty.

Sachs pulled the dagger from the other bull horn, his eyes blazing with fury, and only then did he see clearly what the unidentified object was.

It turned out to be the true forms of Thunderbolt and Vanguard.

Their true forms formed a small vortex outside the large ball of threads. Whenever the large ball of threads showed any sign of being broken, this small vortex would automatically block it, devour the sword energy, and turn the danger into safety.

The combined attack of Thunderbolt and Vanguard is said to be able to contend with a high-level seven-star expert, and this is no exaggeration.

For those who are reincarnated, how could they dare to use anything in actual combat if it had not been proven?

Therefore, their claim that they "can contend with" means that this ultimate skill has indeed been used to contend with high-level enemies of the Seven Stars level on many occasions.

Their remarkable achievements are also inseparable from the golden core within their bodies.

The Supreme Dao Sect is one of the medium-sized battle groups under the Supreme Battle Group [Outer Path Saint Conquest].

The reason why the "Outer Path to Sainthood" is called this is said to be because more than half of the members in their group come from worlds that are almost completely unrelated to the immortal path system.

However, after becoming reincarnators, due to various opportunities or coincidences, they became fond of the path of immortality and steadily embarked on this path.

The Supreme Daoist Sect is no exception.

Within this Daoist sect, over 70% of its members are mechanical life forms.

The sect's ultimate martial art, the "Cybertron Golden Elixir Manual," was created after consulting with the master of the "Outer Path Saint."

This manual is all-encompassing, but it mainly follows the Nine Revolutions Golden Elixir Path in the Immortal Path.

When the Golden Core is first formed, it is at the four-star level. When the Golden Core is transformed three times, it is at the five-star level. When the Golden Core is transformed five times, it is at the six-star level.

Reaching the seventh stage of the Golden Core realm results in a seven-star level, and reaching the eighth stage results in an eight-star level.

Thunderbolt and Vanguard both practiced this manual, but due to their different innate talents and the deliberate cultivation by their sect leader, the two golden cores they cultivated had very different characteristics.

Thunderbolt cultivated the Pure Yang Thunder Flame Golden Core, while Vanguard cultivated the Heavenly Mystery Magnetic Smoke Golden Core.

Once the two join forces, they can briefly form the Seven-Turn Flowing Light Yin-Yang Thunder Pool, borrowing a bit of pure Daoist secrets.

In this way, if the opponent just keeps at it, the two of them won't be able to unleash their full offensive power.

However, if the opponent tries to launch an attack, it will trigger a backlash, and the heavens will give back to them. The stronger and more frequent the attacks, the more variations will arise in their moves, and the stronger the power will be.

As the saying goes, "It is difficult to cross the line, and the secrets of heaven are unpredictable," how could the warnings and admonitions of the immortal path be false?

Unfortunately, I've never heard of Red-Eyed Saxophone.

He is now trapped in the Heavenly Thunder Pool and cannot escape. To break free, he would need to unleash the power of a Seven-Star Peak at once, or even possess the destructive power of a suitable weapon.

Otherwise, he would have no choice but to rely on his resilience against these two robots.

For a high-level Seven Star to be reduced to competing in resilience against two low-level Seven Star opponents is already a complete defeat.

A moment later, a flash of white light appeared on Bran Star, and space seemed to brighten as well.

An unparalleled chill swept over them, and both Thunderbolt and Vanguard felt their golden cores falter slightly. They immediately knew something was wrong; a peak seven-star expert was attacking them, and even their combined attacks were difficult to withstand.

The "Emperor's Heaven Capital Seal of the Tushita Heaven" on both of them activated on their own.

Golden flames flashed and condensed into the shape of a ruyi above their heads. Then, in a flash, they left the frozen space-time and went to Liu Bowen's side.

Liu Bowen slowly stepped onto the atmosphere of Bran Star, still carrying his wooden staff, but a large cauldron appeared behind him, with a round bead emitting a bluish-white light inside.

In space, the crisscrossing spheres of light were instantly frozen, and then a blade of energy shattered the ice sphere from the inside.

Red-Eyed Saxophone broke free, only to see White-Eyed blocking his way.

"Why did you leave Bran Star?"

He rolled his eyes indifferently, his back to the saxophone, and did not reply.

His gaze lingered between Liu Bowen and the round bead behind Liu Bowen.

This round bead, though only the size of a chicken egg, embodies the profound mysteries of the immortal path, which often have an introspective aspect. It inquires about yin and yang, discusses the real and the unreal, and transcends the boundaries of size, achieving complete freedom.

Anyone who cultivates the immortal path to the seventh star, even if they have broken through the Qi barrier among the four heavenly gates of the Divine Gate, and are known for their solid foundation, will not recklessly squander or flaunt the destructive range of their supernatural powers. Instead, they will only keep their supernatural powers in operation at the most appropriate volume.

This round bead, though clearly an inanimate object, has obviously grasped the true essence of the immortal path, containing within its small size the profound mysteries of the rise and fall of the world and the waxing and waning of the universe.

Bai Yan, though ignorant of the Dao of Immortality, possessed keen senses. In his eyes, this round bead, the size of a chicken egg, resembled a giant version of Liu Bowen.

"Walk!!"

The white-eyed, scarf-wielding monster hand trembled violently and flew high above its head.

A cold white light suddenly shone brightly, stretching across space and illuminating several nearby planets. For a moment, it seemed to rival the brilliance of the stars in this galaxy.

A dozen seconds later, the white light gradually faded, and all the personnel deployed by the Galaxy Eye in the outer space of the Bran civilization had withdrawn.

The impetuous vanguard tightened his grip on his twin halberds and asked, "Aren't we going to pursue?"

"The blue eyes of the Galaxy Eyes broke through to the eight-star level two years ago. Their main brain is even more mysterious and unpredictable. Even with the intelligence capabilities of our Reincarnator Battle Group, we haven't been able to find out many clues."

Liu Bowen shook his head and said, "It is not appropriate for us to officially start a war with them now."

The Vanguard said in a deep voice, "These mad bandits and villains have done countless heinous things. It's a pity that the main god is out of contact, leaving only two of our eight stars: Sect Master Optimus Prime and Vice Sect Master Tongtianxiao. If Brother Gaia and the others were here, we could have caught up with them today."

Among the eight-star members of the Supreme Dao Sect, besides Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus, Gaia, the Flame Star God, is actually the one whose temperament is most compatible with Thunderbolt and the others.

However, when the many main god orbs collided, the Flame Star God Gaia and another part of the warband were not in this universe. Later, the main gods lost contact, causing them to lose contact as well. Because the intensity of the turbulence in the boundary sea is still very high, they have not yet been able to restore contact.

Liu Bowen smiled and said, "On the bright side, at least the loss of contact with the main god is not the biggest disadvantage we have.

"The City of Beyond now only has one eight-star member, Lan Daotianwu, remaining in this universe. He's already under a lot of pressure. And Wan Guizang, who is under his command, has taken this opportunity to openly assume the position of the First Core, which seems to indicate that he is forming his own faction."

"I think that after Wan Guizang breaks through, he will probably have to pull a portion of the existing forces in the 'City of Transcendence' to go it alone."

Despite having the character "霹雳" (thunderbolt) in his name, Thunderbolt is actually quite thoughtful and steady in nature.

At this moment, he asked, "If Wan Guizang wants to form his own faction, the pressure he will face will definitely be considerable. Even if he wants to seize power, can't he stay within the City of Transcendence and form a cooperative relationship with Lan Dao Tianwu? Cooperation would benefit both sides."

"Lan Daotianwu is stubborn and self-willed, and not truly tolerant of others. On the contrary, Wan Guizang is too clever. If the other eight stars of the City of Transcendence could still contact this place, perhaps they could mediate the relationship between them. But now, that's impossible."

Liu Bowen stroked his beard and smiled, "The sect leader met with Wan Guizang last time and believes that he is about to lose control. He will definitely break through to the eighth star level, whether it's today or a month later. Then we can sit back and watch a good show."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Bowen looked at the current situation on Bran Star and sighed slightly.

He can save Bran, but the universe is so vast that there are far too many places he cannot save.

Moreover, as a reincarnator, he has his own adversaries and cannot abandon everything to go into the universe solely to save lives.

"After this incident, our discussion about the exclusive development of mineral resources on Bran Star should go much more smoothly than originally expected."

Liu Bowen said, "Let's contact the sect leader and the others."

After Liu Bowen had settled all matters concerning Bran Star and used the Nine Doubts Cauldron to store Bran Star, preparing to return to the Supreme Dao Sect, he received a message from Optimus Prime.

"Oh?! The matter of the Human Immortal Seed in the Kingdom of Karen has not subsided as I expected. On the contrary, the negative public opinion about this matter on the Star Network has greatly decreased."

Liu Bowen was somewhat surprised, "To be able to do something like this on the Star Network, it must be due to the strong support of the Interstellar Alliance headquarters."

"But if the mere Kingdom of Karen refuses to restrain itself and instead tries to suppress public opinion, it will inevitably invite even greater backlash..."

"Even if the Kingdom of Karen were completely incorporated into the direct line of the Supreme Ruler, it would be a losing proposition for the Supreme Ruler's faction to withstand such backlash in order to hastily popularize the Immortal Seed."

Liu Bowen pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "But it's not entirely impossible."

"The current Supreme Leader, Dumont, is a man who seeks fame, not fortune. His term is coming to an end, and he still needs a dazzling achievement."

"By using the matter of the Immortal Seed, we can rectify the atmosphere of the interstellar biotechnology industry. If we can really succeed, even if the strength of our subordinates is somewhat diminished, the honor will far surpass that of his predecessors."

The pillar of heaven sat high on the nine-layered clouds, cross-legged on a futon, holding the Three Treasures Ruyi in his hand, wearing a Taoist robe of myriad splendors, with auspicious clouds forming a canopy above his head, silently listening to Liu Bowen's speculation.

When Liu Bowen looked up, he saw the tall, angular robot with a humble and ethereal appearance.

Although he had grown accustomed to it, Liu Bowen still felt a little conflicted whenever he thought about how so many strange and unusual races were pursuing the path of immortality.

The Main God Space is truly an incredible place.

Upon realizing this, Liu Bowen's mind suddenly stirred, and he added, "Actually, there's another possibility why Du Meng made this choice..."

He paused, looked at Optimus Prime, and said, "Sect Master, I need to make a trip to the Kingdom of Karen."

………………

After returning to the Galaxy Eye headquarters, Red Eye and White Eye, who were in a bad mood, suddenly learned some news.

"A seed of immortality? Is the Interstellar Alliance headquarters helping to control public opinion?"

Red Eyes revealed a cruel smile. "Hmph, very well, leave this matter to me."

A soft piano melody echoed across the black planet, accompanied by the voice of the blue-eyed man.

"This matter should be the responsibility of Purple Eyes."

Rolling his eyes, he said, "I also want to go out and get some exercise."

"Oh?"

After a moment, the blue-eyed voice came again, "Alright, then you two can vent your frustrations about this."

………………

In the center of the nebula, within the divine realm.

Hydra smiled and took a sip of hot tea, saying, "Minister Wan, you hold important positions in both our 'First Core' and 'Beyond City,' yet you were unaware that Lando Tianwu's secret experiments had already produced works of that caliber."

"It seems Lan Daotianwu has been on guard against you for a long time. You didn't even know about the Immortal Seed technique, did you?"

"Let's go together to seize the Kingdom of Karen, capture those hidden figures under Lando Tianwu, and of course, all the truly advanced technological clues will belong to Minister Wan. I only want the Source of Karen, what do you say?"

Wan Guicang, dressed in a light blue robe with slightly faded fabric, had his hair styled with a wooden hairpin and slightly curled hair at the temples, resembling a refined merchant. He sat on the other side of the tea table with a gentle smile and lowered eyes.

"The mastermind behind all these events could not possibly be Lan Daotianwu... However, this highly suspicious situation might just be the perfect opportunity for me to establish my own faction."

He had made up his mind. He put down his teacup, and although his smile was faint, his words made Hydra feel a surge of joy.

"Alright, then I'll travel with Brother Hydra and see what secrets the Kingdom of Karen still holds."
