Chapter 1613: Chapter 1613: The Power of Guardianship
The Mother of Deep Red gazed coldly and said, “Are you trying to delay time with me? Your Power of Creation, I’ve coveted it for a long time. Also, there is no way the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan can return in less than two days. As you deplete, you will ultimately perish. But as the Core of Life, you can’t detonate yourself, can you? What you’re consuming is only the existing energy, but once I capture this life core of yours, a new creative energy will be born. I can afford to wait for a day. After another day, it will be enough to take you away. As long as I capture you, my harvest will be sufficient. For a day, you just try to hold on.”
Long Tianyang no longer spoke, but only stared intensely at the Mother of Deep Red.
They are all cosmic entities that have existed for many years, each a plane master, but Long Tianyang, as a plane master, is in a sense also a prisoner, limited by many restrictions. This is why the Mother of Deep Red is so confident.
Long Tianyang’s life core of Self Body has long been sealed by the Dragon Clan and Sky Horse Clan. Although she can currently mobilize the Power of Creation, she cannot self-destruct. In other words, if her creation energy defense is absent, the Mother of Deep Red could possibly capture her. If this life core is peeled away, then the Mother of Deep Red’s goal is achieved. She would squeeze the life energy from her life core to help the Deep Red Realm evolve, and once the evolution is complete, she’d return to Sky Horse Star and create a Divine Realm using it as a base. When that time comes, there’s no chance of obstruction. Then, the Mother of Deep Red herself would become a true God King.
All the timeframes have been precisely calculated by the Mother of Deep Red; otherwise, she wouldn’t have chosen to appear on Celestial Harmony Star.
Without long-range space teleportation capabilities, even the Sky Dragon Leader and Sky Horse Sect Leader would need two days to return, but she is not in a hurry at all.
The Deep Red Realm slowly opened behind her, like a large net, half-enveloping the atmosphere outside Sky Horse Star, emitting a glimmering light.
A terrifying aura lingered in the air, bringing strong pressure.
Long Tianyang can block her for a day, which is already within the calculations of the Mother of Deep Red, as she also uses this time to devour the universe’s energy to replenish herself. Although the consumption mainly came from the Celestial Harmony Star for the previous teleport, such long-range interstellar travel is also a significant burden on Deep Red Realm.
Moreover, while the Creation Shield makes the Deep Red Realm hesitate to break through to avoid being neutralized, the life energy emitted by the Creation Shield can be absorbed externally. Although Long Tianyang has tried her best to control it, not allowing life energy to escape, it’s impossible to truly control everything. Hence, Deep Red Realm continues to invisibly absorb those volatilized life energies to replenish itself.
Sky Horse Star, Sky Horse Plaza.
Several massive Sky Horses had already gathered here, and all the planet’s weapons were activated.
No one anticipated that the Deep Red Realm would suddenly teleport here under these circumstances.
News from the fleet has announced the betrayal of the Sky Domination Clan. However, when they started searching, they discovered that the Sky Domination Clan on Sky Dragon Planet and Sky Horse Star had already escaped, leaving no traces behind.
Within the massive Transfer Door, the halo fluctuated, and figures appeared one after another. Leading out of the Transfer Door was none other than the Divine Fire Dragon Knight Zhang Chujia.
She still maintained her youthful appearance, her breath subdued, followed by the three old dragons Lan Xuanyu was familiar with. Only a hundred Dragon Clan warriors followed thereafter.
None of these Dragon Clan warriors were Dragon Knights.
On the Sky Horse Clan’s side, an elder hurriedly approached, respectfully saying, “Divine Fire Dragon Knight, you’ve arrived.”
Zhang Chujia nodded, saying, “Now is not the time for pleasantries. We arrived as soon as we received the message. Unexpectedly, Long Tianyang acted to block the opponent. There’s at least two more days before our people can return, so within these two days, we must protect everything at all costs.”
The elder of the Sky Horse Clan frowned and said, “From their recent conversation, Long Tianyang can support for a maximum of one day, and this is contingent upon consuming the planet’s Creation Energy. Now, our whole planet is in an extreme crisis.”
Zhang Chujia’s eyes flickered, “Brother Zi Wu, there’s no retreat possible for us now. For the continuation of the race, we mustn’t spare any cost and exert our last ounce of energy.”
The elder known as Zi Wu chuckled and said, “Though I can’t compare with the predecessors, I’ve lived for more than three thousand years, so I’m quite content. I thought I could enjoy some peaceful days, never expecting to shine bright once more.”
Zhang Chujia said in a deep voice, “Aside from fighting hard, is it possible to unseal Long Tianyang? At a crucial moment like this, unity against the external threat is most important. If she can release stronger strength, perhaps…”
“No, the seal can’t be undone.” Zi Wu unhesitatingly said, “A great effort was incurred by our two clans years ago to seal Long Tianyang, laying the foundation for later controlling the entire Dragon Horse Star System. Long Tianyang is the true target of the Mother of Deep Red, and also the life core of our planet. Undoing her seal poses only two possibilities: one is that we hold on, but once the seal is undone, resealing would be nearly impossible, and losing control of the planet’s life core is a cost we cannot bear. Long Tianyang once approached the Half-step God King level, but she wasn’t adept at combat. The other possibility is that we’re defeated by the Deep Red Realm nonetheless, then Long Tianyang would surely not allow herself to be devoured by Deep Red Realm. At that point, she might choose self-destruction, leading to the destruction of the whole Sky Horse Star! An extinction we cannot afford.”
Zhang Chujia fell silent; she knew this possibility well and considered it from the Sky Horse Clan’s viewpoint, making such efforts seem improbable.
“Fight until the last moment, and if eventually, we cannot prevent this disaster from occurring…” Zhang Chujia raised her head and looked towards Long Tianyang, who was hovering high in the sky.
Zi Wu’s heart trembled; he naturally understood the meaning behind Zhang Chujia’s words. If, in the end, they cannot prevent it, then better shattered jade than intact tile.
“Besides you, how many are there of the older generation Sky Horse Knights?” Zhang Chujia asked.
Behind Zi Wu, two elderly members of the Sky Horse Clan stepped forward. These two appeared even older, noticeably withered by the loss of a large amount of Life Force.
“Sky Horse Knight Li Yu Yizhuo greets the Divine Fire Dragon Knight.” The elder on the left respectfully bowed.
“Sky Horse Knight Chen Keyi greets the Divine Fire Dragon Knight.” The elder on the right bowed.
“No need for formality, both of you. It seems now only we seven old guys are left.”
The three elders behind the Divine Fire Dragon Knight each reported their names.
“Hou Dingzhong.”
“Cao Yibo.”
“Guo Zibang.”
These old-generation warriors hadn’t appeared for at least hundreds of years. In their frail appearance, it’s truly not easy to recognize their former appearances.
Li Yu Yizhuo laughed, “Old Hou, you’re still alive; I thought you were long dead.”
Hou Dingzhong snorted coldly, “If you’re not dead yet, how could I be willing to die?”
Li Yu Yizhuo sighed, “Ye Ye is gone.”
Hearing Ye Ye’s name, Hou Dingzhong’s expression changed, “If you had taken better care of her, it wouldn’t have been that way.”
“Enough, enough, how many years have passed, why are you still competing?” Cao Yibo promptly interjected to mediate.
