Chapter 114: Living Gear World: Dragon Forest Star

Xisi saw this and quickly stepped back, but after taking two steps back, his rear was firmly blocked by Bai'er.

Then, amid the rapid approach of exploding booms and the crowd's cries, an iron‑hammer staff surged with dense divine power and, in Washituoer's fury, slammed down!

With a prince in front and a Demigod behind, Xisi could only grit his teeth, draw his Red Sword to block, and pour all his divine power into it, ready to endure another blow; but then Washituoer's attack did not hit Xisi at all.

On the battlefield, already a chaotic melee of several sides, the arrival of this demon prince triggered a horde that burst from the darkness—Chaos Astat and a demon coalition—that began indiscriminately attacking every combatant.

At the same time, Washituoer's iron hammer was blocked mid‑air by a gigantic demonic sword.

A great demon personally stepping in to save himself?!

Xisi was stunned, but then, watching the demon prince slowly walk into the Dadian, Xisi did not recognize him, while Bai'er's expression froze.

Washituoer, after a brief doubt, displayed an even more intense fury.

"Bilake, you'll intervene even if I kill a mortal?!"

The demon prince named Bilake did not look at Xisi, only snarled at Washituoer, excitedly licking his tongue:

"I just love making you uncomfortable!"

At this moment, the Dadian, and even the entire Giant Stone Monastery and the nearby void beyond it.

The situation had become so chaotic that every side could no longer discern the state of affairs.

Even Xisi, during this lull, looked toward the main gate exit and could still see many Chaos Rebel Army units turning on each other.

Even on the open ground outside the gate, the dark angels, faced with the rampaging Washituoer industrial demon and Bilake's A-space Demon, were bewildered about whom to attack.

Xisi, seeing this, withdrew his gaze, feeling only helplessness toward this damn galaxy.

"This damn…"

"It's just too chaotic!"

Xisi buried his head and muttered, while a strong tug immediately came from beside him.

A multitude of his own subordinates, bearing the surrounding spray of projectiles, dragged him toward the outside of the Dadian, and almost blindly fired outward.

Even as Xisi stepped out, more dark angels, Chaos Rebel Army, Dead Spirits units, and industrial demons joined the battlefield.

The jump‑crafts on the Giant Stone Monastery, along with the Dead Spirits' green‑screen teleporters, kept moving across the whole land without a moment's pause.

Until Washituoer was held back by the deliberately antagonistic Bilake, Xisi finally got a brief respite, standing on the high ground and watching the many sides before him, eyes blood‑red with murderous intent!

In the void, multicolored light barrages interlaced, and warships exploded one after another in sacrificial detonations.

Even the massive, crushing Dead Spirits warship, at point‑blank range, was taught a lesson by the Empire's Macro Cannon.

That Zhong-level Tomb Ship, amid the chaos, lost its escort vessels and began repeatedly retreating under the Empire's Macro Cannon and the jump‑craft squad.

Then, under Xisi's watchful eyes, the countless shipless troops began a reckless leap onto the Giant Stone Monastery, subsequently moving the battlefield from the void onto the surface.

Xisi even saw a dark angel blast a Dead Spirit with its front foot, then teleport two more with its rear foot.

Washituoer's industrial demon, together with Bilake's evil demon, opened a teleport fissure face‑to‑face, sending wave after wave out to clash before the crowd.

If one were to name the most bewildered and desperate on the battlefield, it would be those Imperial pursuit forces that could no longer tell friend from foe.

Xisi even saw many Imperial remnants, completely stunned, choosing to crawl back toward their own lines.

Many defensive lines were directly reinforced by Fanluosi, who mass‑deployed the Star Realm Army for garrison duty.

There was no choice; as soon as they paused to assess the battlefield, the mortals, looking around, found that the only hope was Xisi's own position, the only one still mortal.

Moreover, compared with the myriad other monsters and deities, only Xisi's side still seemed relatively normal.

Yes, even with countless Green Skin, in this realm where everyone is stunned, Xisi's side is the most normal.

Have you ever seen a dark angel on the Giant Stone Monastery kill even the dark angels in the pursuit forces?!

Xisi surveyed the battlefield, and another rumble sounded behind him.

Turning his head, he saw the two most powerful individuals, Washituoer and Bilake, striking from the ground up into mid‑air.

Afterwards, each time Washituoer tried to approach Xisi, Bilake would firmly hold him back, and Bilake would occasionally signal Xisi to come up and join him in taking on Washituoer!

Bilake's gaze, in that gesture, stunned everyone below, even making Xisi pause, speechless.

Then a group of people stared blankly at the cataclysmic battle, one blast sending two Demigods crashing into a barrage of anti‑air guns, then they looked at the perfectly normal Xisi before them and all furrowed their brows.

"Not true?!"

"What does that look mean?"

"You mean Xisi is supposed to be with you two..."

"Are you damn the same kind?!"

The crowd widened their eyes, and on the slope opposite, under the assault of several dark angels, Fanluosi huffed and sprinted up.

Some bewildered onlookers gaped at Xisi, and Fanluosi hurriedly approached the helpless Xisi:

"Sir, they're crazy, completely damn crazy!"

"The whole battlefield has turned into a mush!"

Fanluosi, panting, had his Refined Power Armor riddled with numerous scars.

Watching the new recruits, who, with only one‑twentieth the numbers, were holding their own 50‑50 against the dark angels while escorting Fanluosi.

Xisi glanced at the self‑doubt on the dark angel's face, without even asking how the chaos was happening.

He only watched as the tide gradually turned against them, repeatedly signaling himself to go up and take on Bilake, then glanced at Bai'er among the crowd.

The surrounding battlefield was chaotic, artillery fire and Light Spears painting a brilliant backdrop in the distant sky.

Xisi looked at Bai'er; this time his tone was extremely calm, but as soon as Xisi seemed about to speak, a great seriousness already appeared on Bai'er's face.

"Now, can we awaken the spiritual energy?"

Everyone, hearing this, turned to Bai'er; the only way to end the battle now, and the only way for everyone on Xisi's side, was to have Xisi awaken his spiritual energy as quickly as possible!

Facing the crowd's gazes and Xisi's expression, which showed no emotion, Bai'er grasped two Ancient Relics in each hand, suddenly pounded his chest before Xisi, performing an Imperial ceremony of unknown age:

"In the name of the Divine Emperor, I guarantee I need only one day; after one day, I will have assembled this awakening device!"

In the endless galaxy, a day truly passes in an instant.

But at this moment, to everyone's ears, a single day of the world seemed so long.

Especially seeing the battlefield beside them go mad, directly piloting warships to ram the Giant Stone, and the reality that our side has not even a single ship, made this day feel like an abyss that can never be crossed.

Only Xisi gave Bai'er a serious look, confirming that the other was indeed using the Divine Emperor as guarantee; he could only retract his gaze, close his eyes, frown and ponder what to do.

And at that moment, the Giant Stone Monastery, after traveling for an indeterminate time, suddenly experienced a slowdown.

All combatants experienced a brief pause, then pairs of eyes looked around, followed by a large number of people suddenly pointing upward.

Xisi also quickly looked up, unaware of when, a planet made entirely of steel and gears—a "living" planet—bearing a sky‑filled plume of factory smoke, and atop it an endless cascade of sparks from gear factories where giant hammers clash, continuously birthing industrial demons, appeared over the heads of all combatants.

And as they looked at this suddenly appearing planet, the dark angels seemed to recognize this world and attacked all creatures that noticed the planet even more wildly.

Washituoer's already sufficiently powerful strength received an unprecedented boost.

Even Abadon, who was hiding at the rear to command the battle, dared to teleport to the surface of the Giant Stone and, through Washituoer, gazed at Xisi!

No need to think, this planet is Washituoer's masterpiece!

Staring at this massive planet, Xisi, amid the horror of everyone almost simultaneously envisioning some escape, lowered his head.

Looking at Bai'er again, Xisi asked seriously:

"Are you sure, one day?"

Bai'er immediately flushed red, ready to pound his chest again; Xisi, seeing this, raised his hand directly.

Then, facing the surrounding crowd whose faces turned pale as they looked at the terrifying gear‑living world above their heads, Xisi took a deep breath, enunciating each word:

"Go to this planet."

"We only need to endure twenty‑four......"

Xisi paused suddenly at this point, then, seeing the crowd with a face of despair upon hearing "twenty‑four," hesitated, then lowered his head to glance at his watch.

Then, looking at the continuously moving second hand, he spoke again:

"We only need to endure twenty‑three hours."

"plus fifty‑nine minutes."

"fifty‑nine seconds!"
