Transcending Godhood: I Extract Keywords and Crush the Gods

The dark interstellar warships tore through the universe, creating streaks of silvery-white spatial rifts.

Plasma thrusters spewed out eerie blue tail flames, and the ship continuously traversed space in the void.

Each jump traverses a distance of tens of light-years.

The starry sky along the way was not peaceful.

Deep within an asteroid belt where countless broken asteroids float.

Inside the control room of a space pirate ship painted in dark red, the one-eyed pirate captain pressed down on the ship's main cannon, which his men were preparing to recharge.

"Boss, that warship looks like it's got a lot of loot, and it doesn't have an escort fleet." The subordinate licked his chapped lips, his eyes filled with greed.

The one-eyed captain slapped his subordinate on the back of the head, his voice low and menacing: "Are you blind? Look closely at the insignia on the bow!"

His subordinate covered his head and leaned closer to the holographic screen.

On the dark bow of the ship, a giant sword piercing the stars is carved, surrounded by dazzling stars.

"A longsword surrounded by stars... Starry Sky University!" The subordinate gasped, his legs trembling involuntarily.

"You're not completely stupid, kid." The one-eyed captain sneered, a layer of cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"These lunatics are always flamboyant in their actions and never conceal their flight paths."

"Aside from the military, the only ones who dare to rampage like this in space are the assassins from these top universities."

"Activate the concealment formation immediately, so they don't notice us."

The space pirate ship quickly extinguished all its light sources, and like a lifeless meteorite, it swiftly merged into the darkness.

Another edge of a star field.

A colossal void beast, the size of a small planet, swam slowly.

On the back of a giant beast, a tribe of alien gods was established.

Several powerful alien beings, radiating demigod-like energy, stood on high ground, their gazes fixed on the black streak of light that swept past the edge of their territory.

A deity from another race, covered in dark green scales, frowned, the aura of law around his body flickering erratically.

"Too arrogant, completely ignoring our airspace boundaries."

A companion dressed in black robes reached out to stop him, shaking his head slightly: "Don't cause trouble, that's Starry Sky University's private plane."

"Judging by the time, the Blood Pact War of All Races is about to begin."

"This ship is carrying the most outstanding talents of the human race in this generation."

"So what? This isn't the Human Federation." A hint of resentment flashed in the eyes of the scaly alien.

"You can give it a try." The black-robed alien sneered, "But don't blame me for not warning you, the teachers leading the team from Starry Sky University are never reasonable."

"If you dare to block this ship today, a true god will descend upon your divine realm tomorrow and slaughter your entire family."

"Their decline is one thing, but crushing us is as easy as crushing an insect."

The scaly alien race remained silent for a moment, then silently withdrew the divine power fluctuations from its body, letting the warship disappear into the horizon.

Many forces along the way, and creatures hidden in the shadows, all made the same choice after seeing the sign.

They avoided, hid, and whispered among themselves.

They were wary of this behemoth, and no one wanted to run into trouble at this critical juncture.

In less than half a day.

The warship completed its final space jump.

The void ahead suddenly opened up, and a dazzling star field appeared in the field of vision.

This is a chaotic star field.

The region in the universe where law and order are most blurred.

Space pirates, exiles, fallen gods, and the black gloves of various forces all converge here.

But the warships' destination was the only place with order in this chaos.

Vientiane Star City.

In the vast universe, the territorial boundaries of various races are strictly defined.

The Terran Federation, the Zerg Hive, the Mechanoid Kingdom, and the Protoss Sanctuary are clearly distinct from each other.

Vientiane Star City is a unique exception.

It does not belong to the Federation of Humans, nor to any alien royal court.

This is a free port independent of all factions.

Here, human deities can sit in the same tavern as Zerg hive controllers and trade divine resources.

The cybernetic modification masters of the Machine Race will customize weapons for the demon race's followers.

Even the most xenophobic Protoss will open shops here to sell pure star crystals.

The reason why Vientiane Star City can maintain this delicate balance is due to an ancient legend.

The founder of this star city, who is also its lord, is a supreme god who controls the highest laws.

It is precisely because of the existence of this supreme god that no race dares to forcibly send troops to occupy this place.

Even the most powerful forces in the universe can only obediently follow the rules.

However, time is enough to dilute all deterrence.

This lord of the main city has not appeared for nearly a thousand years.

Some say he fell into a deep sleep, while others say he perished while exploring the mysteries of higher dimensions.

Without the direct deterrence of the supreme god, although the various races still dared not openly wage war, their covert actions never ceased.

They did so by sending out chambers of commerce, supporting underground forces, and establishing intelligence networks.

Like countless tentacles, it gradually seeps into and encroaches upon this treasure trove.

The warship slowed down and entered the outer ring of the Myriad Star City.

Lin Yuan stood in front of the stargazing window in the lounge, gazing at the outside scenery through the porthole glass.

Before he arrived, he used his class monitor's authority to look up information about Wanxiang Star City.

But written descriptions on paper are far less impactful than seeing it with your own eyes.

Rather than calling it a city, it's more accurate to describe it as a miniature universe forcibly pieced together.

Dozens of massive, habitable planets are linked by thick interstellar orbits.

Each planet is surrounded by a dense array of metal space stations and floating islands.

Various oddly shaped spacecraft shuttle between interstellar orbits, leaving colorful trails of flame.

Following navigation guidance, the warship sailed toward one of the blue planets.

This is the Terran sector.

As one of the major races in the universe, the human race wields considerable influence in the Myriad Star City.

The majority of beings living on this planet are human deities, along with a small number of other deities.

The warship docked steadily inside a massive metal starport.

The hatch opened.

Su Changfeng, dressed in a light gray Zhongshan suit, was the first to descend the gangway. Lin Yuan followed closely behind.

Stepping onto the deck of Star Harbor, the sound was crisp and resonant.

The air was filled with the smell of high-energy fuel mixed with some strange spices.

Lin Yuan looked up.

Outside Starport lies a megacity where steel and neon lights intertwine.

Skyscrapers soar into the clouds, their surfaces shimmering with holographic projections.

In the sky, several enormous celestial beasts, with reins on, slowly flew by, pulling luxurious airships.

In the distance, you can even see several fragments of divine realms hanging upside down in mid-air, which have been transformed into huge commercial centers.

"My God..."

Bai Ye followed Lin Yuan off the spaceship, his hands covering his head, his eyes wide open like saucers.

He took an exaggerated deep breath, as if trying to suck the air out of the room.

"How much money will this cost? How many resources will this require?" Bai Ye's voice trembled.

"An entire star field! An entire star field is that city lord's private property! This is outright robbery! No, even robbery wouldn't be this fast!"

He spun around twice, rubbing his cheeks vigorously with both hands, his face full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

"My Bai family is considered a respectable family, but compared to this city lord, we're practically beggars on the street!"

"Brother Lin Yuan, do you think this city lord needs a godson? I, Bai Ye, am willing to serve him like a slave, as long as he grants me a star sector!"

Lin Yuan glanced at him but ignored this guy who was always acting crazy.

Jiang Tai'a, dragging his cloth shoes, yawned widely, his eyelids drooping, looking as if he might fall asleep on the deck at any moment.

Chu Xiaoxiao pushed up her black-rimmed glasses and looked around curiously.

Su Yueying maintained the composure of a young lady from a prominent family, her gaze sweeping over her surroundings, a hint of amazement still flashing deep in her eyes.

The last to disembark from the spaceship was Starfall.

He stood at the edge of the gangway, looking at this star field that gathered the wealth and power of the heavens.

In that instant, the gentleness and humility on Xingyun's face vanished.

He saw countless resources, countless fragments of divinity, and countless ancient ruins beckoning to him.

What are the Xing family if we can control this star field?

What is Starry Sky University?

His star has fallen, but he will eventually become the new ruler of this starry sky.

This emotion came on quickly and disappeared just as quickly.

Xingyun lowered her head and closed her eyes.

When he looked up again, he had regained his harmless and gentle appearance, a perfectly timed smile on his lips, and slowly walked down the gangway.

Su Changfeng stood at the front of the line, his brows slightly furrowed.

He raised his wrist and glanced at the communication records on his personal terminal.

Blank.

Wen Muxue and the other teachers in charge did not send any instructions, and there was no sign of the third-year advance team's spaceship arriving.

Su Changfeng sighed helplessly.

He knew that he was destined to be this high-class nanny today.

"Classmates," Su Changfeng turned around, clapped his hands, and attracted everyone's attention.

"Professor Wen and the other teachers in charge have other important matters to attend to, and the third-year students are still on their way. We won't wait for them."

Su Changfeng's signature gentle smile reappeared on his face. "For the rest of the itinerary, I will first show everyone around the environment."

Lin Yuan stepped forward and asked, "Teacher Su, has the specific start time for the Blood Pact War of Ten Thousand Races been set?"

"The start time of the Blood Pact War is usually determined by the joint simulation of spatial tides by the major royal courts and the Federation military on the front lines."

Su Changfeng explained, "There is currently only a general window of opportunity."

"The margin of error is about one to two days. So we are not in a hurry to rush to the final battlefield."

Su Changfeng's eyes swept over the crowd.

"While we have this time, I'll take you to meet our allies in this Blood Pact War."

"An ally?" Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

The Blood Pact War among all races is a brutal arena for the human race to compete for resources and suppress other races.

In a life-or-death battle of this magnitude, how could there be allies?

Bai Ye also joined in, looking curious: "Professor Su, does our Starry Sky University have allies? Could it be some second-rate alien race trying to curry favor?"

"You'll know when we get there," Su Changfeng said, keeping everyone in suspense without offering further explanation.

He turned and walked toward the teleportation array inside the starport.

"Stay close to me. Vientiane Star City is a mixed bag; don't stray from the group."

The group stepped into the teleportation array one by one.

With a flash of light, the group disappeared into the starport.

……

In the deep, distant starry sky, far from Vientiane Star City.

Two figures hovered in the void, the surrounding spatial laws spontaneously distorting, shielding all means of detection.

Xiao Lie crossed his arms, his gaze piercing through the endless starlight as he stared at the dark warship docked in the human star sector, his eyes lingering there for a long time.

Su Jin stood beside him, turned her head to look at Xiao Lie's serious expression, and said.

"Everyone has been safely delivered."

"What, aren't you planning to go down and meet them?"

Xiao Lie withdrew his gaze and shook his head.

"There's no need for that," Xiao Lie said calmly.

He reached up and touched the stubble on his chin, his gaze deep: "The road has been paved; the rest is up to him to walk."

"If I show myself now, these brats will feel more confident, and their sharpness will actually be dulled."

"On the battlefield, the most taboo thing is to have a dependency mentality."

Su Jin chuckled softly, smoothing a strand of hair behind her ear: "So, the Commander-in-Chief of the Starfire Legion plans to remain an invisible bodyguard in this starry sky forever?"

"The blood pact war hasn't officially started yet, and there may still be dangers yet to surface."

Xiao Lie crossed his arms over his chest, his body standing tall like a javelin.

His gaze was piercing as he looked toward the direction of Myriad Star City, his eyes revealing a murderous aura that commanded respect without anger.

"There are countless eyes hidden in the Myriad Star City, and I'll stay here and keep watch."

Xiao Lie twitched the corners of his mouth, revealing a chilling smile.

"Anyone who dares to cross the line, my blade is ready to draw blood."

Starlight shone on the two of them.

Xiao Lie stood still, like an iron tower guarding the galaxy, not retreating an inch.

He was escorting them.

They have been escorting them the whole time.
