Chapter 197: Source Extinction Plan

The Faceless Immortal King's dark face turned toward him, his hoarse voice revealing no joy or anger.

"Twilight, the Supreme has ordered us to jointly oversee this celestial domain—shared honor, shared loss. I've run into trouble here, so you won't fare any better."

"You say that lightly."

The Immortal King named Twilight was a man clad in sunset battle armor, his features handsome yet devoid of vitality.

His eyes were two setting suns; merely standing there stained the surrounding decay with an apocalyptic hue.

"Your own domain has a problem, and now you're trying to pin the blame on me?"

Before his words faded, an even larger and stranger figure appeared.

It was a giant composed entirely of black rock, its surface covered with thousands of mouths of various sizes, each mouth protruding a scarlet tongue that constantly licked the air, emitting a scalp‑tingling "hiss".

Thousand‑Mouth Immortal King.

He did not speak, yet the thousands of mouths simultaneously produced different sounds.

There were infants' wails, maidens' giggles, elders' rebukes, vengeful spirits' curses—countless sounds blended together, forming a sonic attack capable of shattering a True Immortal's soul.

"Enough, let's say a few less words."

The final figure emerged, his build the most burly, his hands naturally hanging down to his knees, palms broad as two great shields, as if they could uphold the entire Heavenly Dome.

Heaven‑Supporting Immortal King.

His voice was steady as a mountain: "Noise is useless; the Faceless Immortal King's setback isn't his alone. The Supreme's Source Extinction Plan isn't limited to our world—over a thousand worlds, a couple of mishaps are expected."

"Expected?" the Twilight Immortal King sneered. "One breakthrough and you're already at the Jue Dian Immortal King level—this is called expected? Heaven‑Supporting, you're clueless; you don't grasp what it means."

He certainly knew.

One breakthrough equals a Jue Dian Immortal King.

It means he can reach the Colossal Immortal King level in a short time.

Now, all Supreme Immortal Kings are striving for the final realm, checking each other, unwilling to descend lightly.

The Colossal Immortal King is the ultimate combat power of all realms.

The Faceless Immortal King finally spoke, his voice tinged with gloom:

"That person… is strange. His breakthrough came from a Chaos Spirit Stone fragment, and his cultivation art, which seems to specialize in the flesh, fused with chaotic power, bringing his strength close to that of a Colossal."

"Chaos Spirit Stone!!"

Upon those words, the other three Immortal Kings' faces changed simultaneously.

Even the perpetually carefree Twilight Immortal King's eyes instantly grew grave.

Such a thing is the cornerstone for forging a great universe, a supreme treasure that even a Celestial Emperor would covet.

Theoretically, it could never appear in the barren universes they oversee.

At the very least, such a treasure could only be born in a world destroyed by a Colossal Immortal King—or an even higher Immortal King's—scheme!

"Is the news reliable?" Heaven‑Supporting Immortal King pressed.

"I saw it myself." The Faceless Immortal King's dark vortex contracted violently. "If not, my avatar wouldn't have been defeated so cleanly."

The hall fell into a brief silence.

A single Jue Dian Immortal King is already troublesome.

An Immortal King who wields a Chaos Spirit Stone and possesses limitless potential is no longer merely troublesome—he's a grave threat.

"What are we waiting for?" the Thousand‑Mouth Immortal King's thousand mouths roared in unison, "I'll summon the Fallen Legion, unite our four forces, descend with our true forms, and grind that universe—and that native—into dust!"

"It's difficult; that world's heavenly secrets have been sealed by that Jue Dian Immortal King. To break through, we'd at least need to move a Colossal Immortal King, or… slowly wear it down."

Upon hearing that,

the four Immortal Kings fell silent at once.

"Summon the Colossal Immortal King?"

The price would not be low.

One viable option is to report it; once the Supreme learns, he'll dispatch powerful beings down……

But that……

They've invested millions, tens of millions of years, and the meager rewards for destroying worlds would be reduced even further.

Awaiting the descent of the 【New World】, they might not even be able to guarantee their own positions.

This is something none of the four Immortal Kings wishes to see.

"Hey, Heaven‑Supporting, you said everything was under control—now it's your turn to speak."

Heaven‑Supporting Immortal King gave the sarcastic Twilight a cold glance and said in a low voice, "Twilight, I know a divine realm under your command has also spawned Immortal‑King‑level power, affecting your layout, but now we all serve the Supreme; we need solutions, not your endless sarcasm."

Having spoken, he didn't even glance at Twilight's face, turned his gaze to the remaining two Immortal Kings, and continued:

"The Supreme once issued an edict: the Source Extinction Plan prioritizes efficiency; when encountering a universe where powerful native life resists, it may be temporarily shelved in favor of first clearing those worlds that offer no resistance."

"You mean… just leave it be?"

The Faceless Immortal King's voice held a hint of reluctance.

He naturally knew of that edict.

He simply didn't like it.

After all, he'd lost an avatar.

At least he'd need tens of thousands of years to recover.

"Temporarily."

Heaven‑Supporting Immortal King emphasized, "That Jue Dian Immortal King just broke through; he couldn't possibly reach the Colossal level in a short time, and besides, he only possesses a Chaos Spirit Stone fragment—a fragment alone wouldn't provoke a Colossal to act."

"What we must do is swiftly clear the other regions, destroy the worlds slated for annihilation, accelerate the pace, then gather forces to wipe out, one by one, those worlds that are accidental, blessed by fortune, or have given birth to an Immortal King."

"Remember, the Supreme wants results, not process."

These words eased the formerly tense atmosphere.

Indeed, their task is to reap, not to assault fortified positions.

For an accident, to throw off the whole plan's rhythm is not worth the loss.

"Hmph, you speak so nicely."

Twilight Immortal King's eyes shifted, his words shifted, "Since that bone can't be gnawed for now, we must find some fatty meat to compensate, right? Faceless, you messed things up, you ought to show something for it, right?"

The Faceless Immortal King remained silent, which counted as acquiescence.

Twilight Immortal King gave a hehe laugh, a map unfolded before him, densely marked with thousands of points of light.

He tapped on one of the dim points of light.

"How about this place?"

Heaven-bearing Immortal King glanced, brows slightly furrowed: "The abandoned medicine garden of the Myriad Medicine Divine Lord, for which Faceless is responsible? That old thing may be dead, but that place is layered with restrictions, not easy to deal with."

Their side has a total of 1,032 worlds or star domains.

This does not mean all worlds are in crisis.

Worlds that have given birth to Immortal Kings, or even still have Immortal Kings present, they will consider easing off appropriately, so as not to reveal the Sovereign's plan.

Myriad Medicine Divine Garden.

It is one of them.

Its founder was the Myriad Medicine Divine Lord of Immortal King rank, proficient in the Alchemy Way and Formation Way.

It is also thus.

Even if the Myriad Medicine Divine Lord has fallen.

This Myriad Medicine Divine Garden world is also hard to breach, and has been preserved to this day.

Most importantly… the Immortal King responsible for the place belonging to the Myriad Medicine Divine Garden is the Faceless Immortal King.

This means… the Twilight Immortal King wants him to relinquish this blessed land of the fallen Immortal King, to be divided equally among the four of them.

This makes the Faceless Immortal King feel a painful pinch!

He originally thought that, as long as he advances further and has confidence to fully open that Myriad Medicine Divine Garden, he would enter and divide all the immortal fortunes inside!

Thus, he even hopes to turn misfortune into blessing, possibly achieving half-step Giant Lord!

But seeing the other three's tigerish gazes, the Faceless Immortal King knows he has no qualification to refuse.

If he refuses, those three fellows might now join forces to report to the Sovereign's side……

Thus, he would not only fail to hold his current position, but also possibly be punished by the Sovereign, losing everything he now has!

"……Very well, this king……agrees."

The Twilight Immortal King revealed a victorious smile.

Although a Divine Realm was lost, obtaining the Faceless Immortal King's Myriad Medicine Divine Garden is also not a loss.

"Hmph, dare steal my world's thief…… when this king advances further, I will surely trace cause and effect, and kill your whole family!"
