A Scroll of Infinite Glory

Chapter 566 Eight-Armed Sovereign, Five-Colored Palm, Heavenly Martial Hand

There shouldn't be any "wind" in the universe that could pose a threat to an eight-star powerhouse.

Moreover, when the pale white air burst forth from their bodies, it merely formed three tornadoes that were roughly the same size as them.

However, even this small-scale anomaly caused a drastic change in the expressions of the three people.

They were shocked to discover that their very foundations were crumbling at an unbelievable speed, as if this pale aura was a kind of "strange poison" designed to suppress them.

But how is that possible?

To achieve this extraordinary "natural enemy" effect, one must first thoroughly analyze the power systems of the three individuals and fully grasp their evolutionary paths.

In the words of the Main God Space, it means to see through the essence of the Great Dao of all three of them at the same time, and then to reshape all three of these Great Dao essences in reverse.

This is something that no other eight-star powerhouse could accomplish.

Even the leaders of the Reincarnators' battle group, when they used their most treasured possessions, could only forcefully overpower the three Great Gods and the others by relying on another kind of Great Dao Essence. They relied on stronger strength to offset the opponent's resistance and crush them, rather than a reverse breakthrough where there was almost no confrontation and they collapsed at the first touch.

However, the total amount of this pale white aura was ultimately too small. With the Great God and his companions using all means to save themselves, this aura was quickly exhausted.

Only then were they finally able to spare a thought from their utterly horrified self-rescue efforts and notice a problem.

Where did this pale white gas burst from?

It was the golden amulet on their bodies.

The golden amulets that the three of them each stole almost became their death warrants.

But there's something wrong with the golden amulet; why did it suddenly erupt at the crucial moment of Dumon's battle with them...?

When the Great War God and his allies reached this point in their thinking, a tremendous change had already occurred within the war engineering zone of the Osshu civilization.

More than a thousand beacon fires and smoke signals, formed by the entanglement and condensation of matter and antimatter, converged towards the same point, vaguely forming the phantom image of Emperor Ossihu.

This phantom only constructed the upper body. Above the waist, the figure was beautiful, but below the waist, it was a dark energy swamp formed by more than a thousand flesh-and-blood planets distributed in the vast space.

No, the enormous energy released by matter and antimatter creates monstrous waves in this vast swamp. The pressure in the opposing zones of these waves is high enough that they often completely transform from an energy form into a matter form.

This region is now a thick soup of high-concentration energy and high-density matter, similar to the state shortly after the Big Bang.

This is the most powerful form of the Osshu civilization's war project, simulating the environment of the early universe, allowing the strongest warriors of the entire race to grasp the highest authority of this project, mobilize the "Cosmic Origin Soup," and form an indestructible "Primordial Overlord Construct."

The so-called Primordial Ruler is the supreme god conceived by their civilization, which they regard as the source of all flesh and blood life in the universe.

As soon as the construct took shape, a dim, almost illusory hand swept across space, pressing down and blasting towards Doomsday Commander.

The reason this construct appears ethereal and dim is not because it lacks internal energy; on the contrary, it is because it has too much energy and too high a density of matter, approaching the core region of a small black hole.

Even the slightest movement of it can cause enormous gravitational fluctuations, distorting spacetime, preventing light from escaping, and severely interfering with any observation based on matter, energy, or the mind.

It is because detailed observation is impossible that it appears illusory and blurry.

If it were a Doomsday Commander in a normal state, there would be far too many ways to easily avoid such an attack, and there would be absolutely no need to take it head-on.

However, after being eroded by the pale airflow, he was still in a state of extreme fatigue. For a moment, he was unable to escape from the gravitational tidal wave created by this palm strike. He could only try his best to fight back and form the strongest head-on confrontation.

Gray light waves spread from the Doomsday Commander, sweeping indiscriminately across space.

The "doomsday" in Doomsday Commander does not refer to a chaotic and destructive end like that of the God of War.

On the contrary, the word "Doomsday" in his name refers to extreme cold and tranquility.

He once had a strange encounter, observing a parallel universe that had reached the end of its lifespan.

There was no trace of any life in that universe. All the stars had died out. After releasing all their heat, the ancient celestial bodies gradually cooled down. Without the power of these celestial activities, the many particles in space also stopped flowing.

Cold, cold, even absolute zero is not enough to describe that scene. It was true despair, so cold that one could not even feel sorrow, because any emotion had already cooled down.

After returning from that scene, Commander Doom spent a long time trying to get rid of that memory. He even tried to erase his memory many times, but that inexplicable cold feeling still enveloped his mind and body.

Almost no one knows that this most famous space pirate actually started his nomadic life simply to escape the emptiness of the world, and to fill the void in his heart by watching other people's extreme emotions.

At his core, he was just a refugee.

But when he reached the seven-star level and then the eight-star level, after these two extremely important transformations, the invisible fear that had been chasing him was now under his control and became a weapon in his hands.

"The End of the World..."

The gray light waves smoothed out the tides of gravity, turning all the chaotic particles and dust around them into still raindrops.

However, as the ancient ruler's palm continued to strike down, this still area was also under increasing pressure, approaching its limit.

boom!!

The moment the boundary of the gray light wave was broken, all the pressure that had been accumulated was released, and the matter and energy in the static area immediately became disordered, several times more violent than the previous fluctuations.

The Doomsday Commander stood high on the crest of the chaotic torrent, suddenly escaping the range of the palm strike that had been suppressing him.

Gray light patterns swayed erratically beneath his feet, yet within the chaos lay order, instantly gathering a torrent of energy to form a classic-style pirate warship.

In the apocalyptic era, the Black Flag leads the way!

"The more you see, the greater your ambition becomes..."

"Let's use this bustling universe as a stepping stone and charge ahead recklessly!"

"Our desires will continue to grow, like an endless tide, until they are enough to fill that empty apocalypse, allowing our warships to continue their voyage!"

This Black Flag warship embodies countless profound reflections from the Doomsday Commander's long career.

So much so that when the warship was condensed, apart from its true form standing at the bow, its faint whispers echoed everywhere—in the lookout tower, captain's cabin, hull, power plant, and large warehouse.

The black flag fluttered, leading the increasingly violent waves around it, crashing into the war project of the Osshu civilization.

After being severely damaged by the pale air currents and betrayed by the Osshu civilization, the Doomsday Commander's first reaction was to muster all his remaining strength and directly charge into the Osshu civilization, which was now displaying its strongest trump card.

The reason is actually quite simple.

After the dramatic change in the situation, Dumont, though alone, had become the most powerful force on the field. If anyone tried to escape in any other direction, he would surely intercept them.

Even though the Osshu civilization displayed the original ancient overlord construct, it only reached the level of an eight-star powerhouse in terms of pure impact force; in other aspects, it was still inferior.

Breaking through this war engineering project and seeking an opportunity to escape from within the Ossi civilization is the option with the highest success rate.

Coincidentally, the Great God and Blue Eyes thought the same thing.

The God of War even abandoned three of his treasures to deal with Dumon's pursuit, buying himself a chance to retreat.

The Great War God Kusa mainly relied on his research into the War God gene to reach the seven-star level. The reason he was able to break through to the eight-star level was because he obtained advanced knowledge about magic from the Reincarnators and learned about the concept of laws.

His reputation as a war god spread throughout the universe. It can be said that he had long been inextricably linked with the concept of "war". Not long after he learned from this, he successfully mastered the power of the concept of war in his native universe, deeply comprehended it, and stepped into the eighth star.

The four weapons he usually used in battle were also reforged by the God of War and transformed into conceptual divine artifacts.

It can be said that these four divine artifacts are also part of his eight-star Great Dao Divine Essence.

However, the pale aura was extremely strange. After a period of erosion, the Great War God felt that his Great Dao essence was shattered.

If we throw out all three conceptual artifacts now to stop Du Meng, we might lose that part of the Great Dao Essence if we're not careful. We don't know how long it will take to rebuild it.

A second attempt at enlightenment is unlikely to yield the same result as the first, and can be considered a significant loss.

Therefore, when the God of War wielded his axe to cripple the war projects of the Ossi civilization, he was arguably the most furious and desperate of them all.

Blue Eyes seized the opportunity and directly enhanced the War God's axe with his own music.

The simultaneous and fierce attacks from the three powerful figures immediately threw the entire war project into turmoil.

On the surfaces of many flesh-and-blood planets, raging flames of war erupted, accompanied by deafening cries of agony.

Those 128 habitable planets, the lands of the Osshu civilization, also trembled simultaneously amidst a sharp buzzing sound.

Hundreds of millions of Osshu people were cleaved in two as if struck by a sharp axe, and important facilities on many planets were also completely destroyed.

However, faced with such heavy losses, the ancient ruler's construct remained unmoved, and slapped down with both palms in two different places.

After the Great War God and the Doomsday Commander each withstood a palm strike, Blue Eyes suddenly saw a third palm coming towards him.

Then came the fourth, the fifth, the sixth...

With eight arms outstretched, they distorted space and time, obscuring all methods of observation. In an instant, they approached the three powerful figures, taking turns striking them and forcibly suppressing them into the same area.

The axe in the God of War's hand suddenly grew larger, and all four arms gripped the axe handle at the same time. The axe blade was magnificent, and it forcefully severed two of the arms at the wrists.

Just then, another eye opened on the forehead of the Primordial Overlord's construct.

When it grew eight arms, the appearance of this construct already showed subtle differences from that of Emperor Ossihu.

When the third eye opened, it was a completely different person's appearance and physique.

Moreover, five round beads suddenly shot out from that third eye and hit the God of War.

Black, white, red, yellow, and cyan—five colors of light shone brightly.

A sacred and majestic figure could be vaguely seen emerging from the dazzling light. With a single palm strike, its five fingers spread apart, each fingertip adorned with a glittering star, leaving an indelible palm print on the chest of the God of War.

This palm strike was originally a simple suppressive force, but it seems that after realizing the characteristics of the target, the deeper meaning of the palm technique changed.

The God of War was struck by this palm strike, his face filled with astonishment, his expression blank, and his years of burning, boundless fighting spirit suddenly waned.

Kusa, who was deeply integrated with the concept of war in the local universe, actually felt that the connection between himself and the concept of war was abruptly severed by this palm strike.

Even though it hasn't been completely eradicated, it has become much weaker for the time being.

Having been severely injured by the pale aura, abandoned three divine artifacts, and then taken this blow, the Great War God's strength was now so weakened that he no longer resembled an eight-star powerhouse.

The ancient sovereign's construct clasped its two hands together, enveloping the Great War God within them and directly suppressing him.

Deep within the war project, even Sumeru Qing, who was controlling this construct, was filled with disbelief.

The Great God of War was still resisting, but he no longer had the strength to break through the two palms of this construct, and he would soon be completely suppressed.

"The Pale Wind, it really is that terrifying..."

Xumi Qing shuddered, then thought, "The effect of those five beads has also exceeded my expectations."

"Why do those five beads seem so much stronger than when they were first given to me? And they even change their moves automatically?"

Although he couldn't understand it, he knew that it must be closely related to the changes in Guan Luoyang himself.

Just as Sumi Qing was thinking about these things, Blue Eyes and Commander Doomsday also noticed the biggest anomaly.

Within the war project, the seemingly normal flesh and limbs of the dead Osshuin people quickly lost their color and turned into a light green, crystal-clear gel-like substance due to the continuous aftershocks of the battle.

After wriggling for a while, these substances healed themselves. Although they did not revert to human form, they were clearly still able to play an important role in assisting the operation of this "Primordial Overlord Structure".

"This gelatinous substance..."

Blue-eyed seemed to have thought of something, "The Primordial Elder?"

"Indeed, it is the Primordial Elder."

Dumon approached them, full of vigor and high spirits, "To be precise, it's the skin shed by the Primordial Elder."

The original Grand Elder of the Interstellar Alliance headquarters was a celestial-scale gelatinous being, blessed with a physical body that reached the seven-star level from the very beginning.

After befriending the Golden Civilization, he gradually reached the eight-star level after an unknown period of time.

At that time, he was the only eight-star being in the universe, an invincible existence. However, he did not have any worldly ambitions. He simply followed his friends' requests to help the Golden Civilization research some technologies, or he would travel around, enjoy the scenery, and take a nap.

However, after the Golden Civilization disappeared, he established the headquarters of the Interstellar Alliance, which, for some unknown reason, frequently experienced molting.

Dumon was not confident that he could get the Grand Elder to fully comply with his wishes.

However, he had a good relationship with the Grand Elder, and in his early years, he received these discarded materials from the Grand Elder.

The substance originated from the true body of an eight-star powerhouse, so you can imagine how precious it is.

Based on this, Dumont developed a war simulation system with the aim of directly targeting the Ossichu civilization.

Back when the great war involving many of the Seven Stars took place at the spaceport of the Kingdom of Karen, Dumon had already launched a war against the Osshu civilization, killing or capturing them and taking their place.

The high-ranking members of the Ossiu civilization who communicated with the Doomsday Commander were, from beginning to end, disguised as Dumon's most trusted old subordinates.

Sumeru Green was originally an anomaly from the Osshu civilization, sharing the same roots as the Osshu Emperor. With the assistance of the materials transformed from the Primordial Elder, it wasn't difficult for it to deceive the Doomsday Commander and his group for a short time.

Although Blue Eyes didn't know the whole story, he could basically guess: "So, the strange poison that severely injured us just now was also related to the Primordial Elder?"

Dumont was not prepared to answer this question.

When Dumon reached the eight-star level and went to see the original Grand Elder again, he told the Grand Elder about the three outsider organizations.

However, at that time, the Grand Elder was in a dazed state, unsure whether he had just woken up or was about to fall asleep, and it took him a long time to react after listening to Dumon's conversation.

He used the inert substance extracted from the rainbow stone to make several small bottles, and the pale air stored inside were the strategic deterrents he gave to Dumon.

Dumon still doesn't know where these pale auras come from, but he has sensed that the Grand Elder's frequent transformations and drowsiness are related to these things.

"A mere touch of the Pale Wind will suffice to deal with you."

Dumon smiled slightly and turned to look at him, "But if Mr. Lando Tianwu is also interested, I have plenty of Pale Wind available."

Deep in space, a colossal, immeasurable dragon slowly emerged.

Lan Daotianwu stood with his hands behind his back atop the demon's head. Suddenly, he reached out and made a grasping motion. As he turned his palm over, three golden talismans floated in the air above his palm.

The events at Horseshoe Nebula were a setup by Dumon and his group, but the three golden amulets were not fake.

The success of the disguise as the Osshu civilization was not only due to the miraculous effect of the remnants of the Great Elder's transformation, but also because Blue Eyes and others were not allowed to delve deep into the heart of the Osshu civilization to infuse their power and conduct a thorough investigation.

These three golden amulets are things they need to handle personally. If they are fake, how can they be kept secret from these eight-star powerhouses who have been paying attention to the Rainbow Sea for a long time?

What Dumont did was simply modify the real golden amulet, hiding the deadly poison of the Pale Wind inside, waiting for the right moment to release it.

The inert substance extracted from the rainbow stone controlled the direction of the pale wind.

The golden amulet itself was not destroyed.

Even after being ambushed, when Commander Doom and his team confirmed that there were no further attacks inside the golden amulet, they did not easily abandon these treasures. Instead, they opened up some additional alternate dimensions to store them away.

But no one expected that Lan Daotianwu would take these talismans from the three of them with a flick of his hand!

Blue Eyes and Commander Doom were already feeling a chill, and Dumont couldn't help but frown.

"Brother Du, are you saying that you're just cleaning up internal problems and that I shouldn't get involved?"

Lando Tianwu smiled, "If I didn't intervene, the rewards of the Golden Amulet and the Pale Wind wouldn't be nearly enough!"
