Chapter 1145: Magic
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
The Ancient Heavenly Court had controlled the Gate of Destinies to roam through void space and engulf planets, allowing their cultivation to improve tremendously over the past several ten thousand years. Their military prowess kept on growing, and everything was headed toward a good direction.
However, 180 years ago, they encountered intense resistance when they were engulfing a planet.
The native extraordinary humans who called themselves magicians drew magical energies from void space and possessed great power.
Although there was intense resistance, they still managed to quickly suppress the natives and then started drawing out the planet’s energies.
Yet, later on, Malediction realized that they had stabbed into a hornet’s nest.
In fact, the magicians on that planet were not actually the natives there. That planet was just a planet colony that belonged to these magicians.
Thereafter, both sides engaged in a great battle. The Ancient Heavenly Court had numerous martial arts experts and tier nine Divine level experts with their top-notch powers of being able to forecast the future, distort space-time, and recreate matter. They even had Malediction—a tier nine Divine level expert who had accumulated several ten thousand years of experience and could independently tear apart void space, roam the universe, and traverse parallel worlds.
Despite this, the magicians’ powers were also not to be underestimated. Based on Malediction’s understanding, this influence—known as the number one magician empire—dominated over ten thousand planet colonies, had a history of over 100,000 years, and had billions of extraordinary humans.
The various magical fortresses they created possessed the terrifying abilities of traversing void space, flying at superluminal speed, and vaporizing lands. The strongest 100 fortresses were known as the Doomsday Fortresses, possessing horrifying powers that could extinguish stars and absorb stars’ energies for their own usse.
These 100 Doomsday Fortresses were the ones that traveled across void space, suppressed all lands, and sustained the peace within the entire number one magician empire.
Right now, a total of nine Doomsday Fortresses had surrounded the Gate of Destinies, completely restraining this Ancient Heavenly Court’s super Divine Equipment. Not only did this make the Gate of Destinies unable to escape by traversing void space, but it was also unable to shut down its space and prevent external threats from entering. The commander of the number one magician empire’s army charged into the Gate of Destinies and fought his way in.
Now that things had come to this, Malediction had no choice but to admit that the strength of the number one magician empire really surpassed that of the Ancient Heavenly Court by a wide stretch.
There was only two options left for him. The first was for him to lead the rest of the tier nine Divine level experts to fight it to the bitter death, temporarily breaking out from the Doomsday Fortresses’ restrains and activate the Gate of Destinies to connect to other universes and escape.
The other option was for him to abandon the Ancient Heavenly Court and tear apart the void space, escaping by himself.
As the Heavenly Emperor who had reigned over the Ancient Heavenly Court for several ten thousand years, Malediction naturally had the ability to tear apart void space and traverse the universe. It was just that his ability was not as stable or efficient as using the Gate of Destinies.
However, after much thought, he decided to still give it a try.
‘I’d have to bring down at least one of the Doomsday Fortresses.’
A short moment later, a commotion started to break out amongst the entire Central Heavenly Palace. Several ten million golden-armored warriors let out enraged bellows. The Heavenly Emperor wore a crystal-colored Divine Armor and swelled up abruptly, turning into a massive figure that was several ten thousand zhangs long.
Concurrently, the other several ten tier nine Divine level experts also released their Virtual Images and turned into various towering figures—including divine dragons, huge giants, windstorm, great sea, void space, and constellations—appearing above the Heavenly Palace.
At the sight of this scene, the many heavenly generals and soldiers started cheering. The rest of the Divine level experts also started to release their powers.
Heavenly Emperor Malediction bellowed, “Everyone, are you willing to kill the enemies along with me?!”
Roar!
A colorful brilliance that was hard to describe erupted instantly, and the Ancient Heavenly Court started its retaliation of the largest scale in history.
Over 50 tier nine Divine level experts erupted their powers concurrently. What kind of scene was that?
Almost the entire space within the Gate of Destinies seemed to have lost its color in an instant. It started with the additional time frames being stopped temporarily, and countless martial wills came gushing over, crushing the floating fortress in the sky.
Then countless martial wills joined together like a stretch of chaos, gushing out of the Gate of Destinies.
When the powers of over 50 tier nine Divine level experts converged and erupted, their powers seemed to turn into a state of chaos. Within a motionless space, chaotic currents drowned all the floating fortresses they saw, turning them into nothingness.
After ten seconds passed, time started to flow once again. A large half of the armies in the Gate of Destinies had also been wiped out.
Although the remaining floating fortresses continued to put up resistance, they were already no longer a match for Malediction and the others.
Outside the Gate of Destinies and above the Doomsday Fortresses, Edwards—one of the five great Marshals in the number one magician empire—raised his brows. His entire body was emitting a faint white light, and his figure seemed to be bright and translucent. One could even see the glow from the countless nebulae and planets flowing within his body.
“Are you finally willing to come out? It really isn’t easy to deal with the powers of these cultivators without relying on the Doomsday Fortresses.
“However, if the Doomsday Fortresses were to enter this Divine Equipment, it’d be too dangerous.”
Edwards was worried that after the Doomsday Fortresses entered the Gate of Destinies, they would be destroyed by the enemies’ attempt to self-explode.
As they were the empire’s ultimate weapon, the loss of any of these Doomsday Fortresses would be a great sin. It was something that even he was unable to bear.
Therefore, he slowed down the besiegement and slowly encroached on the space within the Gate of Destinies, forcing the enemies to come out.
An extremely massive gate with a length of over 100,000 kilometers floated quietly in void space, with a colorful glow flashing in the center. It was as if one could see various images inside it, including images of the universe, the sun and the moon, as well as animals and plants.
Nine Doomsday Fortresses which were flashing with soaring fiery sparks surrounded the gate. Each of them was emitting gravitational waves and universe radiation that surpassed those of a star. Just their existence alone would cause other planets to disintegrate the moment they got close, turning into dust in the universe.
Right now, the nine Doomsday Fortresses each released a stream of crimson beam, binding the Gate of Destinies tightly and confining it using super strong gravitational forces that could match those of a black hole.
However, at the critical moment, one of the Doomsday Fortresses shook slightly and broke into pieces under everyone’s surprised gazes. It was like the scene of a planet disintegrating.
Unexpectedly, an entire Doomsday Fortresses had exploded. It was a great explosion that rivaled a supernova explosion’s.
When ordinary planets exploded, fragments from their explosions would shoot out in all directions, with a portion of them soaring toward outer space and forming meteors. The remaining portion would collide with each other, turning into matter similar to that of planets under the effect of having great mass and gravity.
However, the energy level contained within the Doomsday Fortresses was far too high, having a core temperature of over 10^21 degrees Celsius. The moment one exploded, they could throw back at light speed the matter that they had rapidly absorbed.
Electrons, protons, neutrinos, X-rays, Gamma rays, ultraviolet rays, and all sorts of particles and light radiations would burst out, splattering out at a temperature of several million degrees Celsius.
This great explosion would cause the matter the swell up into bubbly nebulae and use gamma rays to wipe out and explode the stars in both poles, killing all the lives within several centuries on many planets. They would also illuminate the entire universe over the next several hundred million years.
The other nearby Doomsday Fortresses and the Gate of Destinies also received an attack that had the impact of a heavenly disaster.
Edwards shouted frantically, “Damn it, what happened?”
The remaining eight Doomsday Fortresses engulfed the surging rays and explosions crazily, taking in the universe’s radiation as well as all sorts of impacts brought on by the neutrinos.
The fortresses—which could cross the interstellar space and wipe out civilizations—were now like small sampan boats, shivering amidst this universe windstorm.
“Sir!” An adjutant cried out in surprise, “It’s them!”
Edwards looked at the report that was sent over, and his countenance instantly became ghastly pale.
“It’s them? Why are these lunatics here?”
At the center of the explosions, a human-shaped life form slowly appeared amidst the endless white light. High energy rays that had a temperature of several million degrees Celsius brushed past his skin lightly, but they were as gentle as a slight breeze in the summer night, unable to harm him in the least.
