Chapter 317: Chapter 186: Big Brother of the Life Factions, Awakening of Lord of the End’s Consciousness, Emperor Bai’s Worries!_3

In just this moment, the space around the mechanical star suddenly distorted. Even the specially crafted mechanical pipes, which were capable of withstanding the energy within the star, shattered into fragments under the terrifying wave.

These fragments floated in the cosmic void.

Eighteen ninth-tier Mechanical Ascenders were as if facing a great enemy; as the stars surged, they emitted a terrifying aura and instantly took action.

"The consciousness of the Lord of the End shows signs of awakening. Quickly suppress it!"

One of the Mechanical Ascenders uttered in a low voice, with a solemn look in his eyes.

Under the joint suppression by the eighteen Mechanical Ascenders, the strong wave was gradually subdued within the mechanical star.

After completing this task, the eighteen Mechanical Ascenders breathed a sigh of relief, exchanged glances, and resumed their original positions.

Despite this, their stars started to dim, seemingly having exhausted most of their energy.

These eighteen Mechanical Ascenders were the ninth-tier powerhouses of the Ascension Factions, responsible for maintaining and suppressing the consciousness of the Lord of the End.

Just as the eighteen Mechanical Ascenders finished subduing the consciousness of the Lord of the End and prepared to return to their original orbits to recover the energy they expended.

One of the Mechanical Ascenders’ stars trembled slightly, causing the eyes manifested on the star to gradually become dazed.

In the next moment, a trace of obsession appeared in those dazed eyes.

"All great works... require sacrifices to forge. Other beings in the star system may not understand, but they will eventually comply..."

"Ascension begins..."

The murmur was very soft; the other seventeen Mechanical Ascenders did not hear this Ascender’s voice and were each immersed in their stars, recovering their energy.

...

Meanwhile, in the Daoran Star System.

In a cosmic void, streams of transparent energy converged, gradually forming the semblance of a human, though the features were extremely illusory.

He slowly gazed in the direction of the Forging Star System, with a faint glimmer in his eyes.

"The consciousness of the Doomsday Star... is almost overwhelming that of the Lord of Ascension?"

"This is not a good signal for the Human Federation!"

He murmured softly, yet the corners of his mouth curved into a smile.

"However... this is good news for me."

"Emperor Bai... he’s a tough character!"

With that, he slowly extended his hand, and a pure stream of spiritual power instantly spread out, enveloping the Forging Star System. This prevented the wave of the Lord of the End’s awakened consciousness from spreading.

After completing this, the Immortal smiled faintly, and his figure transformed back into that transparent spiritual power, dissipating into the cosmos.

Or rather... completely merging into the Daoran Star System.

As the Immortal’s figure disappeared, in the void at the frontline of the Star River Star System.

Emperor Bai sat cross-legged in the endless darkness, his whole being seemingly the only light within this dark realm.

"Hmm?"

Emperor Bai suddenly sensed something, but when he tried to locate the source, he found nothing.

This situation made Emperor Bai’s brow furrow slightly.

"What’s going on? Did I sense incorrectly... or has someone obscured my perception?"

Emperor Bai spoke softly, a look of contemplation appearing in his eyes.

A trace of worry subtly surfaced on Emperor Bai’s face.

"The Human Federation... may not stay peaceful for long!"

Bai’s expression grew varied with concerns; as a galactic life form of the Human Federation, Bai knew well that despite its appearance of prosperity and strength, even with three galactic life forms overseeing it, it was merely a facade.

In reality, the Human Federation was already on the edge of collapse, teetering on the brink.

"The consciousness of the Lord of Ascension... is continually worn down by the Doomsday Star; whether still human is questionable."

"As for that Immortal... even I can’t guess his intentions!"

Emperor Bai sighed, his eyes growing more worried.

"Without the emergence of new galactic life forms, the Human Federation might only last a few more centuries."

Emperor Bai’s expression was serious, as he fell into deep frustration.

Breeding galactic life forms wasn’t easy; most importantly, the new galactic life forms must achieve their status through the Martial Arts path.

Otherwise...

The Mechanical Transformers and Cultivator System, both under the Transcendent system, carried various risks. Whether they would stand by the Human Federation if they became galactic life forms was unknown.

Only with the birth of another Martial Artist galactic life form can the safety of the Human Federation be assured.

"Alas!"

Emperor Bai couldn’t help but sigh deeply, as illusory panels began to appear around his body.

On these panels, images of various figures flashed.

Among them, the figures of Liu Yao, Gumo, and Lu Sheng were also present.

"I hope these young ones... can grow quickly. The Human Federation’s time is truly limited!"

Emperor Bai gazed at the photographs; the owners of these pictures were Bai’s hopeful candidates for achieving galactic life form status!
