Chapter 480

There was no delay.

He acted immediately upon deciding.

"Bestowal, gather the illusory light."

"Final Bestowal."

A dim, blood-red light descended.

The illusory light gathered, and the bouquet bloomed!

【Grade】 rose from Dream level to Final.

…………

【Empire Ruins】

The Empire is in the midst of tense reconstruction.

"I say..."

"Even the Cannon of Mercy cannot inflict damage on that flesh mountain?"

"It seems that is the case."

"But isn't that just a common unit within that blood mist existence?"

"That is the case..."

"You tell me that a Forbidden-level defensive item, a strategic weapon capable of instantly annihilating a star, cannot damage a common flesh mountain?"

"That is the case."

"This flesh mountain is merely their common troop type?"

"That is the case."

Questions were fired off one after another.

The answers received were always the same.

This directly made the Empire's General furious.

"Now the entire universe has heard of it."

"At least among the major powers."

"An application for return has already appeared."

"This batch of capital chain cannot be broken."

"It concerns our Empire's great plan for revival!"

……

"But... General."

"I feel that the obstacle to the Empire's revival is not the capital chain."

"I believe the existence within that blood mist."

"If not eliminated soon."

"Then we are truly in great danger."

"An existence capable of withstanding the Cannon of Mercy."

"Heh, what happened in the Origin Galaxy."

"We should just ignore it."

"That galaxy is terrifying; you know that well."

"However, as long as we do not provoke them actively, nothing will happen."

"Those existences within the mists."

"Are all existences we cannot provoke~々."

"As for that blood mist, let them fight amongst themselves."

"I think they will not fight against our Empire."

And just as he spoke thus.

A thick black beam.

Flashed out instantly!

Voom—

Boom!

In the universe, a gray-black pillar of light appeared!

This pillar of light was not like the light just now.

It flashed and passed.

This beam, however, continued to flash.

At the same time, it actually began to move!

Boom!

An extremely high-energy bombardment.

Like an eraser.

It completely erased all matter it covered.

Forget atoms or particles.

No matter what thing it was.

It would be completely pulverized.

Completely annihilated.

…………

Boom!

This thick beam of light, though moving slowly.

was indeed moving.

After a full three seconds.

within this universe.

a completely empty space had appeared.

And the ruins of the empire.

had been swept away by half.

The General, looking at the half of the buildings beside him.

felt endless panic in his heart.

This beam of light had just barely missed covering them.

It had swept directly toward their side.

If it had swept for another fraction of a second longer.

the likely outcome would have been their complete coverage.

At this moment.

where the aggregated phantom light had swept.

and where it had not swept, a sharp contrast formed.

Where it had swept.

it was purely empty.

Pure emptiness.

And where it had not swept.

there was a very clear dividing line.

Nor was there any scorching.

Nor any sign of burning.

This energy was completely condensed.

Without even a trace of leakage.

…………

Lu Cang, sensing the intensity of this strike.

felt quite satisfied in his heart.
