National Star Sea Era...

Chapter 912 [The High-Dimensional Sea] and the Collapse of the Botian Ruins
Only after returning to the Zhutian Market could Song Chi finally relax, and his gaze instinctively shifted to the [High Dimension Sea] artifact in his hand.

Since becoming the captain of the Torch Ship, nearly 30,000 years have passed. In this long period of time, Song Chi has only personally come into contact with four chaotic artifacts.

【All Heavens Market】

[The original spark]

【Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation】

The last item is the [High Dimension Sea] that he just acquired. As a chaotic artifact that surpasses even the Seven-Colored Mythical Treasure and can only be nurtured by the Chaotic Divine Continent over countless years, the power of the [Vast Market of the Heavens], the [Original Source of Fire], and the [Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation] is evident to all. Therefore, Song Chi naturally has high expectations for this [High Dimension Sea].

As his gaze focused, the attributes of the [High Dimension Sea] quickly came into view.

[Strange Object: The Higher Dimensional Sea]

[Quality: Chaos]

[Effects: {High-Dimensional Imprint}{High-Dimensional Traction}{Sea of ​​Treasures}{High-Dimensional Oath}{High-Dimensional Barrier}{High-Dimensional Tracking}{Rule Simulation}{Stone of Dimensional Ascension}{Wrathful Sea Realm}{Chaotic Tsunami}]

[Note: This is a chaotic marvel born from the essence of chaos in a certain chaotic source sea during the eons of the high-dimensional chaotic divine continent. It possesses incredible power.]

……

{High-Dimensional Imprint: Upon activation, a high-dimensional imprint can be placed on a designated being. The holder of the high-dimensional imprint can control the [High-Dimensional Sea] to a certain extent. Note: A maximum of ten high-dimensional imprints can exist simultaneously.}
{High-dimensional attraction: Leaves a traction mark on a designated event or object, which can be pulled back to it regardless of its future location. Note: Each event or object can only be attracted once every ten thousand years.}
{Sea of ​​Treasures: Within the higher-dimensional sea lies a special sea of ​​treasures. Every ten thousand years, it autonomously draws in some unclaimed wonders and treasures nurtured in the myriad realms and the Chaos Divine Continent.}
{Higher Dimensional Oath: With higher dimensions as witness, a supreme covenant is signed.}
{High-Dimensional Barrier: Upon activation, the artifact can generate a high-dimensional barrier, which merges with surrounding realm barriers or dimensional barriers, granting it high-dimensional defensive power.}
{High-Dimensional Tracking: Actively locates a specific type of artifact or resource; can only be activated once every ten thousand years.}
{Rule Simulation: Specifies the simulation of a certain fundamental rule of the Starry Sea Dao to assist in comprehending that fundamental rule.}
{Ascending Stones: Rare objects can continuously generate Ascending Stones; the more resources and energy invested, the faster the generation speed.}
{Wrathful Sea Divine Realm: Activates the power of the raging sea, creating the Wrathful Sea Divine Realm, greatly enhancing the holder of the high-dimensional mark and suppressing other units within the realm.}
{Chaotic Tsunami: Activates all the primal power of the component, summoning a chaotic tsunami capable of annihilating everything.}
"As expected, there are no ordinary things among the chaotic wonders..."

After scanning all the attributes in front of him, Song Chi was greatly excited.

The attributes of this [High-Dimensional Sea] are perfect. Not only can it continuously attract and collect all kinds of rare treasures from all the heavens and myriad worlds, but it also has the ability to sign high-dimensional oaths. These oaths have high-dimensional binding force and are far superior to the Seven-Colored Oath.

However, upon seeing this effect, Song Chi instinctively thought of the [Eternal Slavery Agreement] that the Will of Heaven had made for him and Zi Huan.

After only a moment of confusion, he understood why the other party hadn't used the {High-Dimensional Oath}. Once the agreement between the two parties was fulfilled, the [High-Dimensional Sea] would ultimately be handed over to their Torch Human Civilization for control. With the control changing hands, the {High-Dimensional Oath} could naturally be lifted at any time. However, using the [Eternal Slavery Agreement] would be completely different.

Besides the oath of higher dimensions, Song Chi was also extremely interested in the {higher-dimensional barrier}. He hadn't forgotten that the current [original source of the flame] of the Flame Civilization was still placed in the [Tianyue Secret Realm]. Although the Tianyue Secret Realm, as a high-level cosmic secret realm, had extremely high secrecy and defensive strength of its barrier, that was only under the premise that it hadn't been locked by a twelfth-level transcendent being. Once it was truly locked by a transcendent being, the [Tianyue Secret Realm] itself wouldn't be able to hold out for long.

However, if it is combined with this {high-dimensional barrier}, the result will be completely different.

At least the Botian Ruins, which were also built on the foundation of the cosmic secret realm, persisted for a long time despite the erosion and attacks of many transcendent beings and dozens of mythical alien races.

Furthermore, if placed within the Void Market of the Heavens, the two shield artifacts would merge, making their defensive power even more terrifying.

Before Song Chi could continue thinking about this, his ethereal body, which remained in the Rift Mountain Ancestral City, suddenly called out to him.

Chaotic Divine Continent, Heavenly Ape Star Realm, the location of the Bo Tian Ruins.

The chaotic void has transformed into a boiling furnace. Although the recent mythological battle has temporarily subsided, the encroachment of various forces on the ruins has reached a frenzied level.

Streams of mythical power traversing the cosmos, like billions of invisible giant hammers, relentlessly bombarded the already riddled ruins.

"Crack—Boom!!"

Finally, at a certain moment, the ancient ruins that had sustained the Botian Clan for countless millennia let out their final, agonizing cry of despair.

At its core, the remaining phantom of the will to fight against the heavens completely disintegrated after emitting a faint fluctuation mixed with relief and resentment, turning into nothingness.

Immediately following this was the complete collapse of the entire ruins space.

There was no earth-shattering explosion as one might have imagined, only a chilling collapse originating from the very foundations of the rules.

That distorted chaotic void, like shattered glass, broke into pieces, transforming into the most primordial chaotic energy that swept in all directions. The remaining mountains, land, and star fragments within the ruins were all annihilated and dissipated in this chaotic energy.

"The ruins have collapsed!"

Where is the "Higher Dimensional Ocean"?

"Rob!!"

Almost at the same moment the ruins collapsed, the various mythical beings, who had been unable to restrain themselves any longer, like sharks smelling blood, intertwined their divine thoughts and revealed their true forms. One after another, figures exuding terrifying pressure tore through the void and rushed into the core area that was rapidly collapsing and being destroyed.

Titans swung their star-like fists, smashing through chaotic energy tides; the tentacles of the Abyss Gods, entwined with chaotic rules, reached into every space that might harbor wonders; the Primordial Queen commanded endless swarms of insects, like locusts sweeping across the land, devouring and scanning every inch of the void; the Eternal Lord of the Eternals, his body flowing with a cold radiance, traversed the void at a speed beyond reason, searching...

However, no matter how these mythical beings searched, or how they scanned and deduced with the power of rules, there was never a trace of the [Higher Dimensional Sea] in that gradually fading chaos.

The chaotic artifact that sustained the ruins and was coveted by all powers seemed to have vanished into thin air.

"Gone?"

"How can it be!"

"Someone must have beaten them to it!"

After a brief silence came a fury and suspicion ten times greater than before.

“Who is it?!!!”

A mythical Titan roared to the heavens, its sound waves shattering a distant, chaotic mountain.

"Hand over the [High Dimension Sea]!" A colossal eleventh-tier star beast's eyes flashed with ferocity as it scanned every competitor present. Seeds of doubt instantly took root and sprouted, quickly growing into towering trees.

Unable to find a target, greed and anger desperately needed an outlet. The previous brief peace agreement was as fragile as paper, and it shattered in the face of absolute gains and losses.

"Is it your Eternal Race? You have the most members of your race here!"

"Bullshit! I bet it's those cowardly abyssal demons!"

"The Zerg's devouring nature makes them most likely to silently swallow rare treasures!"

"kill!"

It's unclear who made the first move, but a mythical forbidden spell that could tear apart dimensions suddenly erupted.

boom--! ! !
The great war broke out again.

This time, however, it was no longer a small-scale conflict or probing, but a real, all-out melee that engulfed all the mythical beings present.

Titans and behemoths clashed, their fists and claws exploding in chaos; the laws of the Eternals and the Abyss Demons clashed, light and darkness intertwined, order and chaos twisted; swarms of star-sea insects engulfed mythical figures of alien races, only to be annihilated in swathes by even stronger area-of-effect attacks... and some solitary ancient myths secretly made their moves, attempting to fish in troubled waters.

This mythological battle is unprecedented in scale and scope.

A terrifying energy storm raged, shattering the rules and permanently altering the spatial structure. Temporal turbulence was everywhere, engulfing a large part of the Heavenly Ape Star Realm. Countless chaotic cities, mountains, and even some weak peak races were silently reduced to chaotic dust in the aftershocks of this level of battle.

The news spread like wildfire, shaking the entire Heavenly Ape Star Realm and even attracting the attention of some supreme beings in other regions of the Chaos God Continent.

As the six chaotic cities of the Burning Flame Human Civilization, which are closest to the [Botian Ruins], they are the first to bear the brunt and fall into an unprecedented crisis.

The six cities of the Human Emperor City, the Rift Mountain Ancestral City, the War Soul City, the Hun Tian City, the Lice-branded City, and the Heavenly Dawn City, which stand like nails in the vicinity of the Bo Tian Ruins, are currently on the edge of this mythical war storm.

Apart from the Human Emperor City, which was guarded by the three Human Emperors Jiang Yuan, Ying Yi, and Pei Di Nan, possessed the [Three Corpse Shrine] combination components, and was located in the center of the six cities with the most complete defense system, it could barely hold its ground. The other five cities—Splitting Mountain Ancestral City, War Soul City, Hun Tian City, Lice Brand City, and Tian Li City—were almost all affected by the aftershocks of the earth-shattering battle.

“Buzz——!!!”

The city shields of the five Chaos Cities were activated to their maximum extent at the same time. The dazzling light shields, like candle flames flickering in a storm, rippled violently under the impact of the energy storm, their brightness fluctuating. The cities trembled violently, as if they were about to disintegrate at any moment.

"Warning! The protective array's energy is rapidly depleting!"

"A spatial rift has appeared in Xicheng District!"

"A fragment of a mythical rule is falling towards the city!"

Anxious reports rang out in the command centers of various cities. Countless captains of the Fireship within the city were pale-faced, staring at the apocalyptic scene beyond the sky, their hearts filled with powerlessness and horror. It was a collision of forces far beyond their comprehension.

"Activate the [Zhou Tian Liu He Zhuan Lun Grand Array]!" Song Chi had just emerged from the Zhu Tian Xu Shi when he sensed the terrifying fluctuations sweeping through the chaos, as well as the urgent distress signal coming from the Lie Shan Ancestral City.

Without any hesitation, he directly activated one of the ultimate trump cards built by the Human Civilization of the Burning Flame in order to deal with the crisis of the Chaos God Continent—a super array with six Chaos Cities as nodes that can rapidly teleport mythical combat power.

hum!
At the core of the Rift Mountain Ancestral City, a pillar of light rose, piercing through the heavens and earth. Within the pillar of light, Song Chi's figure instantly blurred.

In the next instant, Song Chi's figure appeared out of thin air above Zhanpo City. His face was cold and stern. With a wave of his hand, the Tianxu Cangqiong and several mythical servants appeared at the same time.

"Dispel the mythical energy shockwave with all your might!"

The Time-Space Netherworld Dragon roared, distorting spacetime and deflecting a torrent of energy that was sweeping towards it.

The Dragon Spine Tyrant Whale unleashed endless spatial laws, transforming them into a barrier to protect part of the city, while the Asura Emperor wielded the Rakshasa Heaven-Slaying Sword, slashing at an incoming wisp of mythical flame demon's afterglow.

Almost simultaneously, Ji Heng appeared in Hun Tian City. The Xuanhuang Chiyu ship exuded a heavy aura that suppressed the eight wastelands, and its hull was filled with mysterious light, firmly resisting the shock wave.

The colossal dragon body of the Starry Sky Dragon coiled above the city of Shiluo, its roar shaking the world. The power of the stars converged into a river, washing away the destructive energy that was spreading.

However, the enemy was too numerous and too strong, and the battle was completely chaotic with no strategy.

Song Chi and his companions could only rely on the teleportation effect of the [Zhou Tian Liu He Zhuan Lun Da Zhen] to continuously travel between the five endangered cities.

Having just stabilized the situation in War Soul City, Song Chi found the protective shield of Rift Mountain Ancestral City on the verge of collapse again. He had no choice but to teleport back immediately and use the [World of All Great Dao Rules] to force back a Star Beast Remnant that was caught in the chaos of battle and frantically ramming against the city's shield.

Just as Ji Heng had used the Xuanhuang Chiyu to suppress the spatial rift in Huntian City, a signal for help came from Shiluo City—a destructive energy tide from the collision between Titan and the Insect Queen was surging towards them.

Exhausted from running around!

Truly exhausting!
Every member of the Burning Flame Human Race mythical warrior was on edge, pushing their power to the limit. Relying on the great array to teleport frantically, they struggled to keep the five cities intact, like firefighters.

Outside Chaos City lies a desolate battlefield where myths are shed in blood and rules are broken; inside Chaos City lies a poignant testament to humanity's enduring spirit, where the flame of civilization flickers and the people stand united in a tragic and heroic struggle.

Song Chi was teleported from the Rift Mountain Ancestral City to the Battle Soul City once again. Feeling the waves of exhaustion coming from the depths of his soul, he looked at the endless chaotic battlefield outside the sky with an extremely cold gaze.

This mythological war, which was completely ignited by his taking the [High Dimension Sea], has pushed the human race to the brink of disaster.

However, he also knew that even if he hadn't taken the [High Dimension Sea] beforehand, this super melee would still have been unavoidable, so he never regretted it.

What he is more worried about now is that if he cannot find a way to break the deadlock as soon as possible, even with the [Zhou Tian Liu He Zhuan Lun Da Zhen], the fall of the five Chaos Cities is probably only a matter of time.

They have to do something!!!
