Chapter 1382: Beyond the Universe (1) Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations Roar! Exactly at this moment—a roar suddenly came from the rear. Everybody was shocked. Then, they saw an appalling scene: the corpses in the area they had just passed seemed to be reviving. Those incomplete bodies started to move; some were roaring hoarsely. They were triggered into action by the presence of one of the Heavens’ race. The latter seemed to have noticed something before and was tracking down the targets, until he saw that group of corpses. “Stubborn!” The alien creature was gloomy. He attacked the swarm and retreated, back and forth, not daring to be surrounded; otherwise he could get killed. Those corpses were incomplete, but they showed the physical strength of universe dominators when they moved, shattering the void and tearing apart the Great Dao. Just by waving their arms and legs they could easily pierce the void and shatter the Great Dao next to the member of the Heavens. Even his Wheel of Judgment was unsteady. Everyone was a bit scared upon seeing how the corpses were forcing the alien to retreat. “Those ancient corpses… seem to merely be fixated on attacking the aliens.” Some of Celestials observed with a mix of fright and puzzlement. “I didn’t expect them to still have the ability to react…” Chi Huo was rather scared. Good thing that they were quiet when they passed the area, or the corpses might have been alarmed. Su Ping felt heavy hearted and aggrieved as he watched the fighting and roaring moving further away. He knew that those ancient corpses were attacking the Heavens because of their natural instincts. They would spring into action whenever they detected the alien nemeses. ...... Even if their souls had perished, their battle instincts and their crazy fighting intent lingered in their bodies! Those universe dominators had clearly been killed by the Heavens. However, even though countless years had passed, they would rise and attack again when their immortal bodies sensed the alien’s aura. “What kind of hatred could possibly result in such stubbornness…” Su Ping mumbled to himself. “Four more Fire Seeds have been destroyed…” Shen Huang said in a low voice, his face contorted. In the blink of an eye, seven Fire Seeds had been obliterated. Only five of the twelve Fire Seeds remained. “Damn it!” Chi Huo clenched his fist in fury and frustration. None of the other Celestials looked good, either. Some of them showed eyes already filled with despair, as if they couldn’t see a future for humankind. “That member of the Heavens seems to have fled,” said Long Yang, who had been observing the battle. He was fully focused on surviving that catastrophe. “He wouldn’t have given up so easily had he detected us,” said another Celestial. “What about the rest of them?” asked Chi Ying. Shen Huang suddenly changed his expression again, heavy grief appearing in his eyes. He raised a hand, displaying a virtual projection in front of them. “This is the current situation in our base…” Everybody saw a display with hellish imagery. The previously prosperous and brilliant galaxy was already ruined. A lot of inhabited planets had exploded. Some were chopped into halves, while others floated in space, rendered into multiple pieces. As for the third and fourth defense lines, they were already being surrounded by worms and destroyed by aliens. In the fifth and last line of defense, countless people were fighting the worms and the aliens using Titan arrays. However, like moths darting to the fire, they swiftly turned to dust. “What are they doing?” “They’re voluntarily attacking the aliens!” “Are they crazy? They went out in the open to attack!” Everybody was shocked to see the fifth defense line. All the fighters who hadn’t been sent to their universes—ranging from the Star State to the Ascendant State—were fighting the worms and the alien invaders outside of the defense line. Instead of fighting, they were more like colliding into the targets and sinking quickly. That sort of battle was downright suicide; not even the most stupid commander would give such a command! “Damn it! Has the command center been compromised? How can they be so stupid!” roared a Command expert, “They could have resisted for a while longer if they relied on the defense line!” He was exasperated to see all those people willingly head to their deaths, ending their lives so quickly. “You’re mistaken. They’re not stupid,” said Shen Huang with sorrow in his eyes, “They’re deliberately distracting the aliens and buying more time for us and the Fire Seeds!” 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 Everybody was stunned by the realization, heads ringing and seemingly about to explode. They were rendered speechless for a moment. “They’re buying time… for us?” Chi Huo realized what was going on and blushed. He stared at the miserable situation shown in the projection and closed his eyes in pain. He knew that Shen Huang was right. That was indeed a stupid way of fighting, charging so valiantly in such a desperate situation, but it wasn’t because they were intent on winning; it was all for a different reason! The others realized that too, and felt how their faces grew hot. Before their escape, they had rushed to find their subordinates and pack them in their universes. The soldiers who were left at the defense line, had in a sense been abandoned. No one went to save them. Those people were the least close to the Celestials, as none of them were their trusted subordinates. However, right at that moment, the total strangers were the ones fighting for their sake until their last breath!
