Chapter 570: Outside the Nine Heavens
“Huh?”
After hearing the words of Speaker Nebula of the Fourth Heaven, the rest of the highest heavens’ leaders squinted their eyes, thinking deeply.
“Nebula, in your opinion, will that monster agree to keep peace with us?”
After a moment of silence, Tom, the leader of the first heaven, asked.
After hesitating, Nebula said, “It should be possible.”
Pausing for a moment, he continued: “This giant serpent should have great demand for energy, and amongst our four heavens, do you think we lack energy?”
“We can still provide enough energy for a pollutant to live, and…”
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Tom and the other two people.
“The three of you, if we cooperate with this pollutant, we might be able to solve some problems…”
“You mean, do you want it to participate in that matter?”
Tom’s complexion suddenly changed, falling deep into his thoughts, contemplating that possibility.
“Yes.” Nebula nodded.
“This great serpent is extremely powerful. If we have its help, we should be able to prevent this disaster.”
Hearing Nebula’s suggestion, one of the two other silhouettes frowned and shook his head, seemingly disagreeing with this decision.
“Nebula, this giant serpent is indeed quite powerful, but you can’t say that it can certainly help us through that disaster. If something goes wrong, will you take responsibility?”
“If it has this ability, doesn’t it mean that it’s more powerful than all of our four heavens?”
The speaker who disagreed is obviously a bit unconvinced. Their four heavens represent the peak power amongst the nine heavens, but now, Nebula is saying that the most powerful existence in the nine heavens isn’t them, but a pollutant.
This is something he doesn’t want to admit.
Recognizing that the rulers of this cosmos are weaker than a pollutant is an extremely difficult thing for them.
“Ponzo, I know you don’t want to admit this.” Nebula glanced at him, and then said,
“But this is a fact.”
“The growth span of this pollutant is extremely large. With its growth speed, it will eventually surpass us, and this day isn’t too far away. This is the reason why I don’t want to become its enemy.“
Nebula solemnly said.
Hearing that, Ponzo opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but he was speechless.
He had to admit that the growth potential of the great serpent is almost limitless. In a short period, it has grown from the insignificant creature they could casually crush back at the eighth heaven, to an extremely powerful pollutant that even they have to take seriously.
Most importantly, the growth of the great serpent is far from ending. If it continues to grow at this rate, it will quickly become a creature that it can’t deal with.
“Nebula, then what should we do if this creature’s growth hits its limits one day?”
The last person spoke, and the moment he spoke, Ponzo and Tom both looked at the Nebula.
Nebula said,
“If one day, the giant serpent reaches its limit and is unable to continue growing before we could accomplish our goals, then it would be the time for us to deal with it.”
Upon saying this, a cold light flashed across his eyes.
Seeing this, the other three nodded, apparently agreeing with Nebula’s statement.
After coming to an agreement, Tom, the first heaven’s speaker asked.
“How should we contact this giant serpent?”
“Now, the giant serpent doesn’t hide its whereabouts, it should be very easy to find it. At that time, we’ll send a team to try contacting it.”
Nebula said after pondering for a moment.
Hearing this, Tom nodded and said,
“Okay, Nebula, we’ll leave it to you. “
Nebula nodded, then the four of them discussed for a while before turning off the communication. After watching the projection in front of him disappear, Nebula leaned back on his chair and became silent.
This universe is extremely big, so big that it’s unimaginable for most creatures and civilizations.
Their nine heavens occupy only a small corner of this universe. They classified other areas as desolate areas or ruins, but they have a shallow understanding of them, far from their understanding of the nine heavens.
However, this didn’t stop them from constantly exploring and expanding, increasing their power and influence and the four highest heavens are the ones that know the most about the outside cosmos.
That’s why they are different from the lower heavens that are always fighting against each other. They are much more united because they have a broader horizon.
In the process of their continuous exploration and expansion, they have obtained a lot of benefits and resources. A variety of energy sources and some relics left by ancient civilizations, and from those relics, they learned about many great secrets.
For example, in some relics, there are records about some ancient civilizations that have abandoned the path of machinery and technology and focused on transforming their bodies, creating super individuals who can cross the void using their body, crushing planets and destroying stars, more powerful than pollutants and star beasts.
Of course, existences of this level are the best among those civilizations, but it doesn’t mean that this is the end of the ultimate end of body transformation.
“Now, our level of science and technology has basically reached the end.”
Nebula thought internally. This is the reason why they are constantly exploring outward. They hope to obtain more ancient civilizations’ relics and find the way forward.
It’s just that, in the process of exploration, they encountered a lot of trouble. Their biggest trouble is a special civilization outside of the nine heavens.
This civilization is exactly like the one mentioned in the ancient civilization relic.
The power of these people is similar to the life mechas they use but very different.
These people store some kind of huge energy in their bodies, which they can use to launch extremely terrifying attacks or create an extremely powerful defensive field.
However, the most headache-inducing thing is their speed and agility.
When they first encountered these people, Nebula and the others were stunned. At that time, their expedition team suffered a heavy loss, but the most serious trouble is that they exposed the coordinates of their nine heavens.
In this dark universe, most civilizations that exposed their location to more powerful civilizations faced either extinction or annexation.
Fortunately, the civilization they encountered isn’t powerful to the level of despair. They can still fight against them for a long time. Therefore, they resisted their invasion and transferred the battle to a desolate land outside the nine heavens.
“The current me is nothing but a planet-level powerhouse.”
Nebula squeezed his fist. They have been dealing with that civilization for many years, so they also know the division of their strength level.
From the beginning. Warrior, Warlord, God of War, and the Silvermoon Class.
Afterward, there are the Planetary-level and the Star-level powerhouses.
As described, planetary-level powerhouses can destroy planets. Cultivating bodies to this level was unimaginable to them before.
In fact, it’s no that they never tried the path of body transformation. They also use pollutants or star beasts to develop genetic potions to improve their physical fitness.
However, they never thought that it was possible to raise the physical body to this level.
Based on their incredible physique, they can build more powerful and destructive ships, but there’s no need to do this.
Because at their level, spaceships actually restrict their abilities.
“Well, who should I send to negotiate with that giant serpent?”
Nebula groaned, then decided.
“Forget it, this time, I’ll personally take a trip.”
The reason he is planning to personally go this time is to contact the giant serpent and personally check its strength.
In addition, he is really worried that his subordinates might not be able to handle the contact between them and cause unimaginable consequences.
They are already facing a strong enemy. Provoking the great serpent at this time is an unwise choice and might even tilt the scale of the battle towards the enemy civilization, turning a potential ally into an enemy.
Upon thinking of this, he made up his mind to personally take this trip.
“Huh, I hope that serpent can be a bit easier to talk to.”
Nebula doesn’t want the giant serpent, because even he doesn’t have the confidence to defeat it.
“Prepare a fleet of 100,000 starships right away.”
Nebula gave instructions to his deputy. Although he has peaceful intentions. As an absolute leader, he must be cautious in each of his actions.
Soon, his deputy assembled a hundred thousand starships for him, then after giving orders, they flew towards the location of the giant serpent
The giant serpent didn’t hide its whereabouts. The entire nine heavens knew about its route. Of course, they didn’t dare to follow it, otherwise, no one would be able to withstand its anger.
The reason why so many people knew about the trail of the great serpent is that its traces have been captured by a monitor.
Countless people joyfully watched the giant serpent leave, especially the people of the fifth heaven, they are the happiest.
The previous actions of the great serpent can be said to have terrified them. It was as if it intended on destroying the entire fifth heaven!
Fortunately, that giant serpent is finally leaving, and it’s heading towards the fourth heaven.
“Doron, what do you think the giant serpent will do in the fourth heaven?”
In a big dormitory back in the eighth heaven, Nara curiously asked Doron as he browsed through the news.
“Will that giant serpent fight with the fourth heaven?”
Nara excitedly said, looking a bit agitated. If the two really fought, it would be a great battle.
At that time, will the fourth heaven disappear from this universe, or will they complete the feat of killing the monster?
The fourth heaven already represents the peak of power amongst their nine heavens. If even they can’t deal with the great serpent, then the great serpent is invincible amongst the nine heavens!
“The fourth heaven most likely won’t take the initiative to attack the great serpent! They had plenty of opportunities to attack it if they so desired.”
Doron, who was catching the news, turned his head and said to Nara.
“It seems that the fourth heaven might be busy with something lately.”
Doron said after a moment of thought.
“The four highest heavens don’t care much about the things in our cosmos anymore. I wonder where their army has been lately?”
In fact, many people have such doubts. The highest four heavens have the largest and most powerful army out of all heavens, but most of them have disappeared lately. The four heavens haven’t made any statement about this.
“Perhaps the army of the fourth heaven is suppressing some kind of powerful pollutants.”
Nara on the side gave full play to his imagination.
“Yes.”
Doron nodded, then said after pondering for a moment.
“This might be it. Perhaps the army of the fourth heaven is busy with something, making it unable to attack and suppress the great serpent.”
“Wait, look!”
Suddenly, a piece of news appeared. There was a photo on the top of the news, on which was a big fleet composed of hundreds of thousands of battleships.
“They are…”
Nara was stunned. They were just talking about the fourth heaven’s lack of troops, but they sent such a fleet to deal with the great serpent in the next moment.
No matter how Nara looked at it, this small fleet is far from being capable of fighting against the great serpent.
“It shouldn’t be.”
Doron was also shocked. He carefully looked at the number of ships in the fleet, their type, and their formation. After a while, an unlikely guess popped up in his mind.
“Nara, is it I or these guys don’t look aggressive at all? Are they going to seek peace?”
“Seek peace with a pollutant?” Nara looked very surprised.
“Yeah.” Doron nodded,
“Although this has never happened before, it doesn’t mean that it’s impossible.”
“This giant serpent is not only extremely powerful, but it also grows at a very high rate. Even the fourth heaven can’t take it lightly, and seeing that they didn’t attack it for so long, they might have the intention to seek peace with the great serpent.”
When Doron closely watched the picture, he found that the fleet was clustered. It displayed neither an attack or defensive formation, but rather a normal formation.
They don’t look like they are heading to war at all, hence his guess.
After hearing the words of Speaker Nebula of the Fourth Heaven, the rest of the highest heavens’ leaders squinted their eyes, thinking deeply.
“Nebula, in your opinion, will that monster agree to keep peace with us?”
