Clearly, even though these insects lack the sense of pain and reason, they still instinctively began to freeze under such a devastating attack.

Of course, it's not just that the attacks of these Dimension Devourers are not as fierce as before; the same is true for the False God's Families.

Those outsiders who were once so aggressive, wanting to seize his former power.

They were genuinely terrified of being beaten.

Initially, they were able to try to strangle themselves by using the shipborne weapons on their starships and by sending out professional warriors from their clans.

However, after repeated failures and large-scale casualties, they could not withstand this hopeless drain.

They are blessed by the Agents, and it is right for them to accept the Agents' call.

But they were also the overlords of a star system.

He knew very well that once he died, everything he had ever owned would turn to ashes.

If they could take it, they would naturally be willing to be the vanguard, but the problem is they can't.

In an instant, many clan leaders didn't even bother to join their own fleets, and forcibly turned their starships around, fleeing into the depths of the star sea.

Once there's a first one, there will naturally be a second.

This atmosphere of escape spread rapidly, to the point that the warships, like a school of startled fish, darted about haphazardly in the vacuum.

Some warships, in their panicked maneuvers, crashed directly into the sides of friendly forces, exploding in flames across the starry sky. The silent explosions engulfed the nearby swarm of insects. Some even activated their warp engines without checking their spatial coordinates, only to be torn to shreds on the spot by the unstable spatial turbulence.

Gu Xu watched the departing flames but did not send the servant of calamity to chase after them.

After all, those were nothing but timid, cowardly scoundrels.

There's absolutely no need for that.

It was precisely because of all of the above that the fleet that originally enveloped the entire Rift Abyss Insect Tide and the False God's Familiar had been reduced by more than half in a short period of time.

The remaining insects, under the oppressive power of the servant of calamity, instinctively retreated, daring not to cross the line again.

"Are you really tired?"

Seeing this, Gu Xu couldn't help but move his neck slightly.

However, before he could even catch his breath, he sensed a steady and regular energy fluctuation coming from behind him through his mental perception.

"Um?"

Gu Xu subconsciously turned around and looked at the source of the fluctuation.

A heavily damaged giant ship pierced through the surrounding black mist and slowly sailed towards his location; it was Anya's Libra Nexus starship.

"Oh? You've heard news so quickly?"

Seeing this, Gu Xu couldn't help but mutter to himself, clearly not expecting that the controller of the divine realm was so efficient.

Before long, the starship came to a stop a few hundred meters away from Gu Xu.

Anya leaped out of the starship and flew to Gu Xu's side.

The closer she got, the more she could feel that indescribable weight.

Even though Gu Xu wasn't releasing any pressure at this moment, even though he looked like a thin young man, and even though the two sides had just reached an agreement, he was under a lot of pressure.

"Lord Gu Xu, I have just broadcast the message globally via the Star Sea Beacon. The message has reached the Divine Court headquarters and received definite feedback."

Gu Xu nodded without saying anything, waiting for her to continue.

"After an emergency investigation and confirmation by the Divine Court, Munedimi has been located. He is indeed not on the front lines. He is currently in the center of the Starfall Divine Realm, a place known in the Divine Court as the Dark Star System. It is one of the core areas of Ashmek Court."

"The Dark Galaxy?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Xu raised an eyebrow and repeated the place name in a low voice.

For him, a native of Earth, what was the Starfall Divine Realm or the Dark Star System?

These are completely unfamiliar words outside of our knowledge.

But Anya said that place was located in the very heart of Ashmerk's Court, while the Starfall Rift they were in was a remote and desolate border of the Divine Realm.

These two places are located at the absolute center and at the extreme edge.

The spatial distance between the two is so small that even describing it as 108,000 li seems insignificant.

But Gu Xu wasn't worried about the distance.

After all, he only needs to unfold the Wings of the Past to begin spatial leap.

As long as the other party can send someone to guide us, it won't take long to get there.

Distance has never been a stumbling block to his actions.

The real challenge lies in the problems at hand.

Thinking of this, Gu Xu raised his head, looked over Anya's shoulder, and cast his gaze toward the location of the Blue Star plane.

Although the insect swarm in the entire Starfall Rift has decreased sharply, the remaining insect swarm size is still extremely large.

The reason they are now obediently stagnating and not daring to cross the line is because...

It's entirely because I'm standing here.

But if I decide to go to the Dark Star System to stop that interdimensional blood sacrifice.

He must take away all the servants of calamity.

But the problem also followed.

Once he leaves with the Calamity Legion, the blade weighing down on the insect swarm will instantly disappear.

Without the deterrent effect of their natural enemies, the billions of Dimension Devourers will unleash their bloodthirsty instincts, which have been suppressed to the extreme.

Blue Star, the closest plane to them, is like a piece of fat meat in front of a hungry wolf.

I'm afraid that no sooner had he left than the Blue Star plane was devoured by the insect swarm.

What would be the point of him destroying the altar of Munedimi then?

He can step in to save the Starfall Divine Realm for the greater good, and he can also smash the interdimensional blood sacrifice of the Old God's agents without hesitation. But all of this is predicated on the premise that Earth must be safe and sound.

If you were to sacrifice your homeland to save a completely unfamiliar star system.

Gu Xu would never make such a ridiculous exchange.

Thinking of this, Gu Xu fell silent.

For a moment, the starry sky was eerily quiet, except for the occasional silent friction of the insect swarm in the far distance.

The servants of calamity quietly gathered around Gu Xu.

Clearly, they sensed their owner's hesitation and did not provoke the remaining insect swarm in the distance.

An Ya, sitting opposite Gu Xu, did not show any impatience despite Gu Xu's silence.

Instead, they were carefully and attentively observing every change in the young ruler's expression.

In a brief moment of thought, she understood the dilemma Gu Xu was facing.

This human, who possessed unparalleled power, hadn't even flinched when faced with a swarm of billions of insects, but now he showed obvious hesitation.

This was definitely not because he feared the agents in the Dark Star System, but because he simply couldn't leave.

He needs to go to the Dark Star System to resolve the survival crisis of the entire Divine Realm.

But he needs to stay and protect his hometown.

If one were to force the ruler before them to choose between these two options...

He would definitely choose to stay and protect the planet without hesitation.

For him, the Starfall Divine Realm was just a completely irrelevant starry sky.
