Chapter 521: Chapter 492: Shaking the Starry Sky

"Have you heard? A powerful figure has invaded the Sun Star System, causing rampant slaughter!"

"Where is the Sun Star System?"

"Which corner did you emerge from, not knowing the Sun Star System? It’s one of the five star systems under the Divine Eye Empire."

"Wow... Someone actually dares to provoke the Divine Eye Empire, are they seeking death?"

"Heh, it’s more than a provocation. I heard that the person who invaded the Sun Star System destroyed millions of troops in less than half a day. Even the World-Ending Star Annihilation Cannon couldn’t kill them."

"What is the World-Ending Star Annihilation Cannon?"

"You don’t know? The World-Ending Star Annihilation Cannon is the pinnacle weapon of technological civilization. Rumor has it that it can kill even ninth-level powerhouses on the spot!"

"So, does this mean this person even surpasses the ninth level..."

With the attack on the Sun Star System, this news swept across most of the starry sky like a hurricane.

Star system warfare.

It happens frequently.

This kind of event can be dinner talk, but it definitely doesn’t cause much sensation.

However.

The Divine Eye Empire is different.

As the dominant overlord controlling five major star systems, the Divine Eye Empire is deeply rooted, and other top powers are extremely wary of it.

To put it bluntly.

The Divine Eye Empire is an unshakable giant.

In the Sun Star System, there was once a supreme Sacred Land that held several ninth-level powerhouses, but even they were uprooted by the Divine Eye Empire.

This shows the terrifying nature of the Divine Eye Empire.

When people from the Divine Eye Empire walk through the starry sky, other powers avoid direct conflicts, fearing any mishaps that might invite disaster.

Now.

Someone is publicly provoking the Divine Eye Empire.

No.

This is more than a provocation.

It’s as if the Divine Eye Empire’s dignity is being completely trampled.

Slaughtering millions of troops.

Wanton massacre.

No other top powerful entity would dare to do such a thing.

...

Celestial Cyan Dynasty.

The assembly of ministers.

The Empress’s phoenix-like eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the ministers below as she asked, "Have you thoroughly investigated which power is acting against the Divine Eye Empire?"

"No news yet!"

That minister replied with a bitter smile.

The Empress waved her hand and sternly said, "Investigate, investigate thoroughly, this Empress wants to know within three days exactly which power is taking action!"

"Yes!"

The minister bowed to accept the order.

The Empress seemed to recall something, and a trace of fear flickered across her exquisite features, followed by a fiery intensity in her eyes.

"The Divine Eye Empire acts tyrannically, its ambitions to dominate the starry sky are evident, regularly sending troops to invade our Celestial Cyan Star System over the years.

Now that a power is acting against the Divine Eye Empire, it presents a fantastic opportunity!"

The Celestial Cyan Star System and the Divine Eye Empire’s Sun Star System are separated by several star systems.

But the issue is.

There aren’t many resources in these intervening star systems, though there are some life planets, their strength is limited.

In contrast.

The Celestial Cyan Star System is like a gigantic entity.

The star system has numerous powerful worlds, yet even with several ninth-level powerhouses in the Celestial Cyan Dynasty, true dominance over the Celestial Cyan Star System has not been achieved, as some top Sacred Lands and sects can contend with the dynasty.

Openly, both sides regard the Celestial Cyan Dynasty as supreme, maintaining a delicate balance to avoid conflicts.

Over these years.

The Celestial Cyan Empress has spared no effort in governance, continuously reforming the dynasty’s system, recognizing talents and putting them to good use, leading the massive dynasty to prosper, with strong individuals emerging continuously, and national power far exceeding what it once was.

Originally, if this trend continued, in at most another thousand years, the Celestial Cyan Dynasty could likely conquer the entire Celestial Cyan Star System, allowing the dynasty to become the rightful overlord of the star system.

As it turned out.

A few decades ago.

The Divine Eye Empire began leading troops to invade, causing frequent friction with the Celestial Cyan Dynasty.

Because of the separation by several star systems, otherwise, the Divine Eye Empire would have already initiated a direct war.

Yet.

Even with several star systems as barriers, the Empress understands that sooner or later, the Celestial Cyan Dynasty will have to face the Divine Eye Empire head-on.

Given the current strength of the Celestial Cyan Dynasty, they are absolutely not a match for the Divine Eye Empire.

Even if the Celestial Cyan Dynasty truly unified the entire Celestial Cyan Star System, doubling its strength from the original level, it would still struggle to rival the Divine Eye Empire.

No choice.

The Celestial Cyan Dynasty rose during a time when the Divine Eye Empire was already a starry sky overlord.

Now, the Divine Eye Empire continues to grow, possessing multiple star systems and abundant resources, while the Celestial Cyan Dynasty can’t even control its own star system, highlighting the disparity.

Therefore.

A power currently taking action against the Divine Eye Empire offers, in the Empress’s view, a wonderful opportunity for the Celestial Cyan Dynasty.

An opportunity to possibly overthrow the Divine Eye Empire and strengthen the Celestial Cyan Dynasty.

However—

This has a precondition that the invading power must have the capability to engage the Divine Eye Empire in a mutually destructive battle, otherwise, the Celestial Cyan Dynasty’s desire to gain from it will not be simple.

The Empress considered the starry sky’s top powers thoroughly but still couldn’t determine which power has such depth.

At present, there is no need for excessive speculation; all can only await the return of news.

...

Vast lands.

Abundant Spiritual Qi.

A Treasure Tower rises sharply into the Qingming starry sky, like a pillar supporting heaven, surrounded by mist, captivating and enchanting.

This is the Celestial Continent.

The headquarters of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion.

Unlike worlds controlled by other powers, the Celestial Continent overseen by the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion imposes no restrictions, allowing cultivators from the Ten Thousand Races to venture here to reside and trade.

In addition to the reputation and methods of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, the Celestial Continent is thriving, with cultivators from various races existing, making it extremely lively.

These cultivators from various races across the starry sky are indeed the real foundation for the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion’s expansion; each transaction and trade tax represents astonishingly high profits.

Currently.

Heaven-Reaching Pavilion headquarters.

A middle-aged man sits cross-legged, wearing garments like an Exiled Immortal in the mortal world. Suddenly, a stream of light bursts through the sky; the man opens his eyes and swallows the stream into his belly.

Immediately afterward.

A look of shock appears on the calm and serene face of the man.

"Demon Venerable Xuan Yin!"

"Cyan Yang Divine Court!"

"When did such a powerhouse emerge in the starry sky!"

The Heaven-Reaching Great Saint’s expression shows shock.

The stream of light contained information about the Sun Star System.

The Heaven-Reaching Great Saint is not unfamiliar with the Cyan Yang Divine Court, it’s a newly risen power, rumored to have some grievances with the Divine Eye Empire, leading the empire to constantly seek and search for their whereabouts.

As the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, a newly emerged power naturally wouldn’t command the Heaven-Reaching Great Saint’s attention.

Yet surprisingly.

This small Cyan Yang Divine Court unexpectedly produced a powerhouse like Demon Venerable Xuan Yin, and even directly attacked the Sun Star System, declaring war on the Divine Eye Empire.

According to intelligence, Demon Venerable Xuan Yin’s strength is extremely formidable, at least ninth-level perfect, and possibly stepping into the Quasi-Immortal level.

And this.

Is what astounds the Heaven-Reaching Great Saint the most.
