Devouring the Starry Sky: Giants of Light at the beginning

Chapter 996 Targeting the Infinite Orochi Clan

With the arrival of the lords, the scene fell silent, except for the monster rainbow dragon, which continued to roar, wanting to eliminate all the beings before it.

However, facing twenty Primordial Ancestors, half of whom were top-tier beings, a mere monster couldn't cause much trouble.

Although somewhat overlooked, the monster Rainbow Dragon remains one of the core elements of this battlefield.

As for the other one...

"Make your move!" Yuan ordered.

In an instant, the eight Hunyuan lords, led by Yuan, formed a perfect formation, maximizing their individual and collective strength.

boom……

A vast and incomparable aura of the Great Dao spread out, possessing a power that could almost overturn the entire endless primordial space.

And the target of this force is naturally not just a single monster, the Rainbow Dragon.

"Yuan!"

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor felt as if it had been struck at its vital point, and was immediately filled with shock and anger, because its Infinite Serpent Clan was also within the attack range.

Or rather, the lords' goal is their infinite serpent race.

That's right. The lords had already considered this on their way here: they needed the Ancestral Core, and they also needed to weaken the Primordial Ancestor.

The latter, in particular, saw the Infinite Serpent Clan mobilize quickly, but they deliberately gave up their greatest advantage: the entire innate chaotic life force.

For the lords, this was practically a matter of being left out, so how could they possibly pass up such a good opportunity?

"go to hell!"

Yuan chuckled, "Since you, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, chose to hoard the treasure, you must bear the consequences. You were caught alone by the lords."

Thunder destroys spacetime...

The power of the Great Dao of the various Hunyuan Lords, combined with the perfect formation, directly bombarded the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's side.

On the other side, the Wugu Ancestor was startled and quickly moved away from the battlefield. Facing the Infinite Serpent Clan, it was still able to stay at the edge for a while.

However, when faced with the Hunyuan Lords, whose cultivation levels and teamwork were extremely high, the Wugu Ancestor did not even dare to approach them.

"Why haven't Bingfeng and the others arrived yet?" Wugu Ancestor couldn't help but curse inwardly.

Although its territory was not close to that of the other progenitors in the camp, it was still closer than that of the cultivator camp. As a result, the Frozen Camp was the slowest to arrive.

"Could it be that the cultivators' camp has already won before this battle has even begun?" Ancestor Wugu wondered to himself.

At this moment, faced with the actions of the Hunyuan Lords, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor was startled, but he still acted quickly and gathered the ancestors of his clan together.

"Infinite Void Array!"

The eleven progenitors of the Infinite Serpent Clan, with the Infinite Serpent Ancestor at the core, are linked together like loops, stretching endlessly.

Thanks to the efforts of many Infinite Serpents, the power of the Infinite Worlds that the Infinite Serpent Ancestor could mobilize became even stronger.

This mysterious place, where anyone who can mobilize even a fraction of its power would be far superior to the Primordial Ancestor of Chaos, let alone a mysterious place like the Infinite World, which has nurtured more than a dozen Primordial Ancestors of Chaos, one can imagine its profound depth.

In addition to its inherent nature, the power of the infinite world, like a thread, connected all the members of the infinite serpent clan present, merging them with the boundless and infinite primordial void.

While the Infinite Serpent Ancestor may not be as skilled in formations as the lords, that doesn't mean he is not. Due to their shared lineage and origin, the Infinite Formation still possesses formidable power, especially in defense.

buzzing...

The combined attack of the lords struck the "Infinite Array" directly, with the vast majority of the power being absorbed by the immortal and indestructible Infinite Serpent Ancestor.

Instantly, the snake scales burst open, and countless pitch-black, infinite void rifts appeared on the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's body, a backlash from merging with the void.

The remaining power was distributed among the ten Primordial Ancestors. Under the effect of the Infinite Array's spreading and differentiation, the interconnected rings collapsed and their connections were severed.

One of the Primordial Ancestors was so shaken by this power that he directly used his Peeling Talent to detach himself from his original broken body.

Without considering escape or defense, any Hunyuan Lord possesses the power to easily crush an ordinary Hunyuan Ancestor.

A combined attack would multiply the lords' power, and even the aftershocks of that power would be something these Primordial Ancestors could not withstand.

At the critical moment, the Primordial Ancestors of Chaos opened their mouths and bit the snake's tail, eventually connecting to the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and forming an even larger infinite ring.

"It actually blocked it!"

Yuan looked at the Infinite Serpent Clan in front of him with some surprise, realizing that they had actually withstood their full-force attack.

"Don't underestimate the Infinite Serpent Ancestor. In terms of defense, it's second only to Wu Lan and the others." The Star Lord said without surprise. He had already seen the result when he made his move.

As a peak-level progenitor, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor, having refined the Infinite World and with the help of the power of the mysterious world, was even able to penetrate a cluster of worlds, which shows how formidable his defenses were.

This doesn't even include the more powerful initial progenitor; the power required to switch between offense and defense is simply incomparable.

This is why, despite having gained a new lord, the cultivators' camp has not yet launched an attack.

The 3,600 world clusters are already quite large; any further expansion would mean entering the spheres of influence of the major powers.

“But the Infinite Serpent Ancestor alone can’t stop us,” Yuan said.

There are differences among the progenitors who are proficient in defense. Some are more focused on protecting themselves, while others are able to protect their teammates, and some simply have stronger vitality or larger size...

Without needing to say more, the lords had already tacitly rushed forward.

Seeing that their first attack failed, the three lords, Naigu, Minghuang, and Moman, chose to charge directly into the Infinite Serpent clan.

Unlike the previous factional battles where each lord faced nearly ten times more enemies on average, the current Infinite Serpent Clan's progenitor only had three more enemies than the lords. This number could not make up for the difference in quality.

"We can't let Minghuang and the others get close!" The Infinite Serpent Ancestor knew perfectly well that the lords and clansmen must not be allowed to get close. They had to rely on its power to defend themselves and buy time for their teammates to arrive.

As for why he didn't run?
Yuan, Xingmang, and Yuan joined forces to completely seal off spacetime and all its rules. They could not escape this seal by merely relying on the power dissipated from the infinite world.

Although the Infinite Worlds are powerful, they don't have much to do with these Primordial Chaos Ancestors. Even the Infinite Serpent Clan can only be said to have benefited from the rules and mechanisms.

Just like the Origin World, it's not that you can perfectly nurture something just because you've refined a mysterious place, let alone comprehend its essence.

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor was very anxious, feeling that he had encountered the most serious crisis in the history of the Infinite Serpent Clan.

This place contains over 90% of the power of the Infinite Serpent clan. If it suffers heavy losses, even with its ancestor Serpent present, the clan will have virtually no hope.

No race can withstand the loss of several Primordial Chaos Ancestors at once, not even the Infinite Serpent Clan.

The three lords of Yuan were responsible for suppression and blockade, while the three lords of Minghuang were the main attackers. Wulan, along with Lord Naigu, confronted the monster Rainbow Dragon. With Wulan and Lord Jin working together, one on offense and the other on defense, they were fully capable of crushing the monster Rainbow Dragon.

With the support from the Star Lord, it's roughly equivalent to the combined efforts of the three lords.

The monster Rainbow Dragon was powerful, but it couldn't withstand the combined attack of the three lords.

Moreover, because of its overwhelming individual strength, the suppression and damage it inflicted on the monster Rainbow Dragon far exceeded that of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others.

Currently, in the infinite primordial space, nothing can stop the two lords from joining forces.

Mastering the highest level of power and comprehending the Hunyuan Dao, although both are considered to be at the level of the Hunyuan Ancestor, may not often result in a significant difference in power.

However, in some subtle ways, the differences can be worlds apart, such as teamwork and ability...

With just one collision, the Golden Lord's destructive attack shattered a small portion of the monster Rainbow Dragon's body, emitting a miserable and furious sound.

As for attacks, with Lord Blue standing there, even the monster Rainbow Dragon couldn't break through his defenses.

In terms of containment and defense, the power of the spacetime array completely suppressed the monster Rainbow Dragon, making it unable to dodge the attacks of the two lords and forcing it to withstand them head-on.

The attack by the Golden Lord was, of course, something no one could ignore.

"Hehe, I really want to fight it one-on-one." Jin said with some regret, looking at the struggling monster, Rainbow Dragon.

For the Primordial Ancestor of Hunyuan, a deadly battle is rare. Once he realizes that things are not going well, he will choose to retreat and will never fight to the death with you.

The monster before him was different; even when it realized it was on the verge of death, it did not retreat, which greatly impressed Jin.

"Let's finish it off quickly. If we're fast enough, we might be able to go to the other side and surround the Infinite Serpent Clan," Lord Wulan said calmly.

"understand!"

This time, all the lords came out together, clearly intending to take them all.

They wanted to severely weaken the Infinite Serpent clan and seize the monster's treasure—they wanted it all.

Boom...

One attack after another, imbued with the power of the Primordial Chaos and the highest level of power, rose up. The entire battlefield seemed to be divided in two, but in reality, it was completely under the control of the lords.

Neither the Infinite Serpent clan nor the monster Rainbow Dragon could withstand the combined might of the lords; only the final blow remained.

"No, I won't let you succeed."

The Infinite Serpent Ancestor roared, its massive body shielding all the Infinite Serpents. Even though it was fused with the void, it was still battered and bruised by the lords' attacks, its scales flying everywhere, making it look miserable.

However, the eight lords remained completely unmoved by this. Considering the dead Origin World, they could not possibly feel the slightest sympathy for the naturally born chaotic beings.

In terms of sheer numbers, wiping out all naturally occurring, primordial life forms wouldn't equal the number of intelligent life forms in a single universe or even a single galaxy.

However, every time a naturally formed primordial being makes a move, it is always aimed at destroying a primordial world.

"Damn you born chaotic beings, what right do you have to be angry?" Lord Minghuang said without holding back.

Streams of lightning strikes, as fast as spears, pierced directly into the body of the Infinite Serpent Ancestor.

The same applies to Lord Naigu and Lord Moman on the other side. In particular, Lord Moman's attack can directly bypass the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and attack the Infinite Serpent it protects.

The pure and unadulterated Chaos Dao, without the slightest impurity, deals almost true damage with every strike, and can even ignore a certain degree of protection.

Fortunately, as the progenitor of Hunyuan, even if his strength was insufficient, he could not truly be completely protected by others.

The ancestor of the Infinite Serpent clan, who was being protected, was also using his highest level of power to help the Infinite Serpent Ancestor build a defensive system and wear down the lords' attacks.

Upon seeing all eight lords appear, the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others abandoned any thought of fighting and focused solely on building a defensive system to buy as much time as possible.

The Mother of Time and Space of the Primordial Chaos Life Faction is rapidly approaching with the eternal beings within the faction, and they are not far away.

If we hold on, things will be different when the other progenitors arrive.

Since the Infinite Serpent Ancestor could sense it, the lords could naturally detect it as well, and their actions became even faster.

Under the onslaught of the lords, both the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's side and the Monster Rainbow Dragon's side were teetering on the brink of collapse.

shhhhhh...

Just then, the Lone Wanderer Demon Ruins and the Hermit arrived at the battlefield at the same time, followed by Pu Cheng and Feng Huang from the Ice Peak camp.

Seeing the situation on the battlefield, even the eternal beings who had arrived couldn't help but frown, as the situation had completely tilted in favor of the cultivators.

The Star Lord's spacetime power is incredibly versatile.

"Is this the collective action of the cultivator camp? How about joining forces temporarily, Demon Ruins?" the hermit said.

"I didn't expect you, Hermit, to take the initiative. That's rare!" Mo Xu said in surprise.

The Hermit was definitely the strangest of all the progenitors, completely ignoring other forces.

“Some things have happened, and I’m also very curious about the Ancestral Core.” The hermit thought of something unpleasant, his gaze fixed on the Source Lord in the cultivator camp.

It is not interested in the various matters in the Hunyuan Space because they are useless to its cultivation and do not require any resources.

However, the Hermit was also curious about the Ancestral Core, which could grant someone instant ascension to the heavens. What if it could grant him another top-level power? Combined with his own strength, wouldn't that allow him to completely suppress the Chaos Lord?

The so-called lack of interest is simply a lack of appeal.

"So, are you going to help the Infinite Serpent Ancestor and the others?" On the other side, Wugu approached the two progenitors in the camp.

Although they didn't get along well, they were still able to keep in step when it came to seizing the treasure.

"Why help the Infinite Serpent Ancestor? Just go and seize the Ancestral Core!" Pu Sheng said coldly.

With the arrival of various forces, the situation has become somewhat complicated, but the fundamental purpose remains the same: to seize the core of the deceased progenitor of the monster.

As for the Infinite Serpent Ancestor's side, it had nothing to do with them, and they were even happy to see the two sides clash.

"Let's call on the Demon Ruins and the Hermits together. We can't let the cultivators' camp dominate," Pu Cheng said.

"it is good!"

The ancestors who had just arrived, after a brief analysis, plunged into the battlefield without hesitation.
