Capítulo 994: Chapter 802: Breaking Through to Holy Tier Is Not Easy (Super Chapter)

The blood splattered on his body made him appear even more ferocious.

However,

“The odd species has died again, we can’t let him be lonely on his way back to the corpse!”

Dozens of human Awakeners charged forward, fearless of death, even trying to embrace him to perish together.

Are these humans all maniacs!

After Gu Aoqiong and another Transcendent of the Blood Mouth Clan slaughtered more than a dozen humans, they could no longer hold on.

Covered in wounds, if they continued fighting, they would likely end up like the Eight-Armed Transcendent, cold and dead within a few hours of arrival.

A dozen minutes later,

Gu Aoqiong fled with severe injuries.

The Transcendent of the Blood Mouth Clan and the Eight-Armed Transcendent were permanently buried in the land of An City.

The remaining players, along with those who had reformed their limbs and returned, killed the remaining Alien Race Awakeners inside An City.

…

The atmosphere at the Alliance’s temporary command base was extremely heavy.

The research on Rune Studies, failed.

The research on converting normal energy to Source Energy, failed.

The research on breakthroughs for Awakeners, failed.

Only a few crystals collected from a very small number of Demonized Beasts proved to contain Source Energy. But the quantity was too scarce to be used in the Cosmic Battleship.

A dark cloud loomed over the entire Alliance.

The video of the Blade Clan Transcendent defeating the entire Third Fleet was repeatedly analyzed in hopes of finding a way to deal with these non-human strongmen.

But…

Nothing at all.

The enemy defeated the Third Fleet without an ambush, not relying on strategy, only through the pure crush of power levels.

The gap was so wide it was despairing.

“Designate within a 500-kilometer radius around An City as the most dangerous area, also… deploy robots for reconnaissance, we must grasp the enemy’s movements.”

“Commander, the red mist has interference capabilities, our remotely controlled robots become dysfunctional near An City.”

The Commander was silent for a moment, “…even at the cost of human lives, I need accurate intelligence.”

Dozens of minutes later,

“Commander, important intelligence from An City is coming in.”

“Speak.” The Commander paused, “No matter how heavy the message, I’ve already prepared my mind.”

“Uh… not quite.” He spoke with a somewhat inappropriate tone for the occasion, “We’ve found quite a number of Alien Race intelligent life corpses inside An City, and the resistance encountered was minimal, perhaps, possibly, seemingly… those aliens are dead, quite a few are dead.”

“What did you say?”

The Commander looked utterly bewildered.

…

Distant, on Earth which had shifted its orbit,

In Green Shadow City,

Tang Yu withdrew his gaze.

“Not bad, at least we pushed back the first wave of Alien Race’s offensive.”

The strategy for the Devil Race to conquer planets is always the same: Abyssal Rifts spread out like nails embedding into worlds, releasing countless Demonized Beasts as vanguards, while using the Abyssal Rift to anchor coordinates, weakening the world’s barriers.

When the time is ripe, they send in the subordinate races.

For the targeted world, the challenge lies in the endless flow of Demonized Beasts and the unpredictable locations of Abyssal Rifts.

On Water Star, Abyssal Rifts almost always unfold in the Alliance’s main regions.

On Earth, however, they appear truly at random.

Tang Yu speculated that Earth’s world barriers are too strong, crevices can only squeeze in randomly. Furthermore, early on, Earth used methods like the Secret Realm’s gifts, collecting Secret Realm space fragments, and so on to master technology related to space, creating Space Stabilization Devices to prevent Abyssal Rifts from appearing inside Sanctuary city walls.

On Water Star, if not prepared, it could have been wiped clean by an Abyssal Rift.

Unprepared, this is the problem many attacked planets face.

As long as they have some time to respond, they might… prolong the time before destruction a little.

“With some cultivation Secret Manuals and magic combat skills shared through games, unless the Devil Race increases their investment, Water Star can at least resist for a long while.”

Too large an investment is impossible.

The Great Sovereign regards the Endless World.

For a world as significant as Earth, they pay attention, but Water Star is just a mediocre, ordinary planet—sending a few troops to conquer if they can, and it doesn’t matter if they can’t.

Hmm…

Though the Secret Manuals leaked by the Main God Game might alert the Alien Races, those manuals, combat skills, and such have nothing to do with Earth or the former Origin Star.

Tang Yu had collected these universal editions during his explorations in the cosmos.

Even the setups on Water Star were by him through the high void, anchoring world coordinates of Water Star and then establishing a Transmission Array.

No traces left throughout the entire process.

The cost is also low.

It only utilizes mental space technology and some rudimentary spiritual projection techniques. Even the game bodies that players have in reality are made of some scraps.

Among them, one player pinched a face into an odd species, and Tang Yu thought it was great. Such bizarre creatures can save certain shaping costs.

If one were to fabricate a Transcendent Tier body, the cost would be much higher.

After the Second Tier of Transcendence, each body could cause him a bit of a heartache. Therefore, Tang Yu had no intention of providing Transcendent Tier bodies for players on Water Star.

To put it simply,

for those from the Human Race, if they can be saved, they should be; also to create resistance for the minions under the Devil Race.

But if unable, Tang Yu could only apologize.

Protecting Earth and enhancing strength are the primary goals.

…

Purple Flame Sky Domain,

The Space Series avatar walked within, with each step causing the space to warp, easily spanning thousands of miles.

Twisted space or chaotic space nodes, Tang Yu regarded them as nothing.

“Arrived at the inner circle.”

In the outer circle, one could still encounter many peak strongmen and invincible strongmen exploring the sky domain.

Tang Yu didn’t confront those guys, disappearing almost instantly. Those whose accomplishments in Space Law were not even at the beginner level couldn’t even perceive his appearance and disappearance.

This is when Tang Yu wasn’t deliberately hiding.

The Space Series Divine Skills are just that unreasonable; the dangerous Purple Flame Sky Domain seems like a backyard to him.

“However, the power of the purple flames in the inner circle is stronger, enough to pose a threat to this avatar of mine.”

In fact,

If flames and space posed no threat to him, they couldn’t help forge a true Holy Body.

Only by placing oneself in a sufficiently dangerous environment can one find a chance in a near-death scenario after peril, as breaking through the Holy Tier has never been easy!

Eileen and Kong took more than half a year to break through.

He himself had prepared for over half a year.

It has been arduous indeed.

After all, from the beginning of cultivation until now, it’s only been five, six, seven, or eight years, and he got stuck at the Holy Tier bottleneck for over half a year, which was the hardest hurdle to overcome in Tang Yu’s cultivation journey.

Suddenly,

his body stiffened.

Not due to a few fire seeds drifting nearby, nor the space tides roaring like giant waves.

Instead,

in his mind, on the Contract Book, another page blossomed with golden brilliance.

Which left him bewildered.

Who broke through to the Holy Tier?

Grey Blade had learned Kong’s breakthrough method, conducting assassinations in some corner of space.

The bamboo rat Li was summoned by the ancestral land again, likely at the brink of a breakthrough too.

Red Moon absorbed the Emperor of the Sea’s legacy, with high compatibility, making the Holy Tier breakthrough possibly easier.

Besides that, Shay, Fani, Greta, and others also began closed-door cultivation, exploring their breakthrough paths.

Hmm, it should be one of Grey Blade, bamboo rat Li, or Red Moon.

Tang Yu opened the Contract Book in his mind, the dazzling golden contract continually enlarged in his eyes, including the name of the contract object.

—Nancy.

Tang Yu: “???”

Did Nancy undergo closed-door cultivation?

Did Nancy find a breakthrough path?

What else did Nancy do every day besides eating and sleeping?

Green Shadow City,

Tang Yu’s true self located Nancy’s position and instantly teleported beside her.

Dense branches and leaves shaded the sunlight, the grass lush and green, Nancy was lying on the lawn… sleeping.

Tang Yu looked around, everything was peaceful, no icy snowfields, no rampant Sword Qi, nor former disaster energy overflow that Nancy often showed.

So…

You truly broke through?

“Lord…”

Nancy groggily woke up, immediately realizing the difference in herself. She displayed a silly smile and said with joyful excitement, “It seems like I’ve broken through!”
