午夜想想爱

Chapter 1379: Arrival (2)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Right when countless people were celebrating excitedly—Su Ping, who was replenishing his strength, suddenly looked at the depths of the void.

There, a strange law was emitting waves.

It was very feeble, but Su Ping had controlled the law of illusion and was very sensitive to it.

Could it be…

Su Ping narrowed his eyes quickly and had goosebumps all over his body. He was almost trembling in fear and grief.

Not daring to take the risk, he instantly summoned his pets to his side and merged with the young Chaos Beast that had recovered the fastest.

A new power surged into his body; he was able to catch his breath. He waved a hand, gathering Shen Huang and the other Celestials by his side. He tore the void open and ran back to the third defense line before they reacted. He then flashed back to Rhea.

Su Ping felt safer as he sensed the planet and the store under his feet. He spread out his senses again and instantly became gloomy.

A figure gradually surfaced, substituting the feeble waves. It was huge, and carried a strange yet powerful energy. Its condescending and aggressive look suggested that it was another member of the Heavens!

Shen Huang and the others, who were slightly confused, also detected the blatantly invasive aura. They all changed their expressions and looked in shock.

Everyone seemed desperate after a quick glance.

A member of the Heavens?

He didn’t die?

......

As everyone showed despair, the void behind the member of the Heavens was split and another of his colleagues showed up.

Two members of the Heavens!

Shen Huang and the others widened their eyes, and were too stunned to think.

There are actually two of those terrifying aliens?

That outcome suggested that the first one had truly been executed by them.?Counting that one, would there be three in total?

Su Ping wasn’t feeling any better than those Celestials. He knew that they were Heavens; he had learned in the Archean Divinity and from the Golden Crow ancestor about how horrifying they could be.

Back in the age of chaos, they had crushed the twelve sorcerers including the Golden Crow ancestor and even knocked down half of the Archean Divinity.

That terrifying species didn’t disappear in history. Rather, they survived.

They had now found the universe he was in.

It was definitely a catastrophe for the locals of that universe!

Let alone being found by the Heavens, Su Ping would have considered it a disaster even if they were found by an advanced cultivation site, such as the Archean Divinity. That was also one of his main worries.

Are the Heavens planning to dominate this place? Why did they find us??All thoughts flashed across Su Ping’s head. Having passed so many tests in cultivation sites, he was no longer scared of dying; however, he felt a strange despair he hadn’t experienced in a long time.

Considering his current strength, even if he were to condense a Dao Heart and even become an Ancestral God, maybe it was impossible for him to resolve such a disaster.

Unless those three were the only Heavens—left from all the wars since primordial times—the fall of their universe was only a matter of time.

“Why?” some Celestial State expert mumbled hoarsely.

Nobody answered.

Nobody even knew what he was talking about.

Perhaps, he was demanding why fate treated them like that, and whether or not it wouldn’t be satisfied until humans went extinct.

Overwhelmed by despair, they completely lost their will to fight. Besides, it woud be pointless, even if they still had it; they would only be moths darting toward the flames.

The space, which had been filled with exclamations, fell quiet after the two members of the Heavens arrived, as if strangled.

The Celestials weren’t the only ones who were desperate. Everyone felt cold and desperate when cameras caught sight of the two members of the Heavens.

While everyone felt anxious, a third member of the Heavens appeared next to the second one.

Following that, the fourth one, the fifth one… Until the seventh one arrived.

“Let’s go!”

Their despair went deeper every time a member of the Heavens arrived, just as if they were being pulled by ghostly hands.

Su Ping reacted when the fifth member of the Heavens appeared. He quickly took everybody to his master’s building on Rhea.

The building was too small to accommodate thirty-six Celestials. Su Ping simply expanded the space, so that it could even accommodate 30,000 people.

“Pull yourselves together and activate the Fire Seed Plan immediately!” said Su Ping quickly. His voice dragged everyone’s thoughts back to reality. They looked at the young man and found him shockingly calm.

He remained clear-headed in such a desperate situation. He was almost inhuman.

“Fire seed…”

Shen Huang mumbled. The confusion in his eyes was soon gone. He said quickly, “That’s right, we have fire seeds; maybe those aliens won’t notice. We will send the fire seeds to the twelve star zones; most of them are women and children. Some of the batches are even made of ordinary people, instead of battle pet warriors.

“They will live and reproduce somewhere in this universe, using our technologies and cultivation techniques.

“Maybe those aliens won’t notice the ordinary people and only regard them as ants…”

The more he talked about it, the more a sickly excitement took over him. Then, he immediately activated the Fire Seed Plan telepathically.

The moment he saw the members of the Heavens, he knew that a lot of people were bound to die.

Even his entire race could be snuffed out!

The other Celestials were quiet, showing troubled expressions. They wanted to run too; not all of them were that great, as to willingly sacrifice everything for the sake of humanity.

…But there was nowhere to run.

They could only stay and fight for humanity, and for the dignity of all Celestial experts.

They were currently at a dead end, whether they fought or not.

They had ended up exhausted just by fighting one of the aliens; fighting the newly arrived group was basically out of the question.

“Is this the catastrophe that will doom our universe? Now, I even suspect that the merging of our universe was meant to resist the alien invasion…” someone said with a sigh. They somehow felt relaxed, knowing it was hopeless to escape.

“I hope that the fire seeds will survive. However… If we all die, how many years will it take to reproduce and cultivate for someone strong enough to slay those aliens to be born?” said a Celestial in whispers. His words pierced everybody’s hearts like a blade, making them even more desperate.

Reality was cruel. While dreams were ideal, they were all realists.

Going by simple calculations, they knew what a miserable future they would embrace.

The Federation had a history of hundreds of thousands of years, until it was easily destroyed by the aliens. What was the point, even if the fire seeds survived?

If the universe was occupied by those creatures, even if humans struggled to survive at the borderlands, could they really hide for hundreds of thousands of years without being noticed?

Even so, would there be a universe dominator among humans hundreds of thousands of years later?

Even if someone did rise eventually… The aliens would not just have one universe dominator; there would be lots of them!

Perhaps humanity was destined for extinction. Or maybe the fire seeds would be found by the aliens someday and domesticated as pets.

It was a simple fact that everybody could infer.

Although nobody was willing to think about it, they all knew it very well. It was like a math question as simple as one plus one; nobody wrote an answer, but everybody knew the result.

Su Ping fell silent too, seeing how frustrated and depressed they were. He asked the system in his heart.

At the moment, the system was the last straw he could hold on to.

“System, can you finish off those Heavens?”

“This system is not designed for battle and cannot kill enemies for the host’s behalf.”

“Then… Can the store resist the Heavens?” asked Su Ping.

“Of course,” replied the system without hesitation, as proudly as before.

In a time of overwhelming despair, the darkest moment when everybody was down, the system behaving exactly as usual gave Su Ping confidence again.

Immense light emanated from his eyes. He took a deep breath and said to the team, “Guys, we must hurry and pack all the people outside into our universes. Be prepared to run!”
