The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 606: Already Want to Descend?

Aldrian touched Zhang Haoran’s head and began entering his mind. But before he could go much deeper, he suddenly encountered many large screens that turned red, followed by a loud voice. The voice was monotone, like a kind of programmed message.

"Warning, warning, intruder infiltrating host’s mind. Warning, warning, intruder infiltrating host’s mind."

The voice was so loud it slightly hurt his ears. He instantly knew this must be the system embedded inside Zhang Haoran. Despite the noise, he kept moving and tried to touch the system.

His hand passed through the screen, which made him realize the system had characteristics similar to his own. However, he had to find a way to shut it down, as the voice was truly disturbing him.

He thought for a moment about how to stop the thing called a system. He didn’t know how it worked, so he had no idea how to make it disappear. Forget about the system inside another person, he still hadn’t fully grasped how his own system worked.

According to Zhang Haoran, the system was something given by the gods, which made him even more cautious in dealing with it.

While searching for a solution, he thought about his own system. If it was a system problem, then his own system must know the way, right?

"Can you help me? Can you make the system in this person stop disturbing me?" he asked the system inside his mind.

The response came instantly, appearing as writing on the screen in front of his consciousness.

"I can. Please wait..."

Reading the answer, Aldrian nodded in satisfaction. He looked around at the red screens, all displaying the same warning message about an intruder infiltrating the space. He wanted to understand how the system worked, and how his own system would silence it.

But before he could see it in action, the red screens and the loud voice vanished all at once. He stood still, stunned, he had no idea how his system had managed to stop the opposing system. There was nothing for him to observe, his system had done it so easily and so quickly that he didn’t even know what he was supposed to be looking for.

However, even though he was curious to know more about how the system worked, he had more important things to do right now. With the screens gone, he continued forward, delving into Zhang Haoran’s memories.

----------------------------------

At a location much farther from Aldrian, several days away, the thousands of alliance troops had already arrived near the battlefield where Aldrian was facing millions of devil troops.

They had reached the area where flames were still blazing in some places, and the heat made the troops that neared it sweat. The group of the world tree that already moving much farther helping to put out the flame so the troops did not hindered by the flame and can keep moving forward.

They needed to push forward toward the black pillar faster, which now appeared much closer, and the scene they had just witnessed made them even more eager to advance.

For the past few minutes, they had been watching an astonishing sight. A golden giant figure shone through the darkness on the horizon. The figure was massive, reaching up to the clouds, and many recognized it as an avatar technique.

They were truly shocked that an avatar could reach such a size, and many could see that the avatar had Aldrian’s face. There was no doubt who it belonged to, and this was the first time they had seen Aldrian use his avatar technique. They saw that Aldrian appeared to be fighting someone, but they couldn’t tell who it was, as they were still too far away.

However, they could clearly see how the giant avatar moved smoothly and swiftly, as if its massive body didn’t hinder it at all. The avatar attacked and defended with quick movements and precise control of power, allowing it to block the attacks of the devil.

Those who understood avatar techniques were especially amazed by Aldrian’s control. They knew how difficult it was to manage an avatar, and how exhausting it could be, as it drained energy at a rapid rate.

The enemy also used an avatar, one with a red hue, which immediately told them that Aldrian was facing a devil cultivator. That devil was clearly powerful, strong enough that even from a distance, they could see his strength matched Aldrian’s. At one point, it even looked like Aldrian’s avatar might lose, as its defenses were broken.

Sylphia and the others who witnessed it were deeply worried. Aldrian’s opponent this time seemed truly formidable, and one name came to mind.

The Devil Lord.

Was Aldrian already fighting the Devil Lord?

Those who continued watching the battle held their breath as the clash between the two avatars went on, until they were shocked to see Aldrian’s avatar suddenly teleport to the side of the devil’s avatar in the blink of an eye.

Then, they saw Aldrian’s avatar’s sword strike shattered the devil’s avatar, and all the troops shouted in unison, their spirits lifted as they witnessed Aldrian’s victory in the avatar battle. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

They had truly learned something new from watching the fight. What they saw was incredible control and power, making them feel like amateurs in comparison to Aldrian. Many of them wondered how he could fight like that and wished they could learn even a fraction of his skill.

The alliance troops continued advancing, extinguishing the flames in the areas they passed. Before long, they arrived at a place where a vast, deep crater spread out before them. The scale of the destruction left them astonished, and many felt a chill in their hearts.

They knew the vast crater had been formed by a colossal rock that fell from the sky two days ago.

They truly couldn’t fathom how a human could use such a technique or unleash destruction on this scale. As they continued advancing, the leaders of the major territories at the front exchanged their thoughts about what they saw.

"This level of destruction is truly terrifying," Emperor Durand said with a sigh. "There is no way any of us could pull off something like this. I can only imagine the energy and control required, it must be immense. We simply don’t have the capacity."

"I agree. Young Aldrian is a monster," Emperor Herman replied. "I don’t have a better word for it. Everything about him truly out of this world." He sighed, then added, "I’m just glad he’s on our side."

"Well, that’s to be expected from the prophesied one. He can’t be comprehended, and I’ve already given up trying to understand his being. I’d go crazy if I forced myself to. The most important thing is that he’s on our side," Emperor Raymond said from the side. His right hand was still severed, but the wound had already closed beneath the bandages.

With repeated treatment from the physicians, the injury had stabilized, and he could now move more freely.

"Anyway, don’t you think this terrifying aura has been getting stronger?" Emperor Ladwin asked with a frown. "It feels like the source has gotten much closer in a short time."

Since entering the area beyond the fog wall, they had sensed a terrifying aura, one that felt similar to devil energy, but even more intimidating. All of it came from the direction of the black pillar.

The aura was so suffocating that the holy-element cultivators had to work even harder to protect the troops from its influence.

Unbeknownst to them, what they were sensing was Tarius’s divine aura.

"Yes, the aura feels more suffocating and heavier. It’s as if the source is getting much closer," Pope Carsius answered with a frown.

"However, I don’t sense any clear origin nearby. Instead, the aura seems to be spreading more widely, as if the source is everywhere," he added.

All of them looked around, trying to make sense of the change in the aura surrounding them. But even after searching for several moments, they found nothing, which left them confused. The aura was undeniably growing stronger with each passing minute, yet they could not locate its source.

But then—

"Wait... do you think the void in the sky has changed slightly?" Emperor Ladwin said, staring at the portal in the sky.

The others followed his gaze, and saw what he saw.

The black portal that now covered the entire sky felt even more ominous and darker. And then, they saw something that chilled them to the bone.

A thin spatial crack suddenly appeared in the darkness, slowly stretching longer and longer. Their eyes froze on it, sweat forming on their brows as their hearts pounded. Their emotions were in turmoil, a mixture of fear and disbelief.

Was the Devil God already preparing to descend into this world?
