498: Crying Little Star God

Just as he was comparing his own combat power with that of the Celestial Official, Yang Dian felt a surge of anger from high above.

Looking up at the sky, it was indeed the Lesser Star God, who had obscured half the sky, extending a mountain-like hand, hundreds or thousands of miles long, directly striking the Celestial Official of Stars, who had instantly annihilated an unknown number of Silicon-based life forms.

The Celestial Official of Stars’ pupils constricted sharply as he saw that mountain-like hand.

“Starry being...”

Amidst his surprise, a vast energy rose from within him, transforming into a great sun that illuminated the world, lifting him to meet the mountain-like hand.

“Boom~”

A deafening roar, as if to shatter heaven and earth, echoed from high above.

The Great Sun Divine Fire Shield shattered instantly, and the Celestial Official of Stars was slapped back by the Lesser Star God at a speed more than a hundred times faster than he had approached, leaving a long-lasting depression on the sea surface.

“Quickly, go invite the Celestial Emperor!” He struggled to rise from the seabed, spitting blood, as he looked at the mountain-like hand in the sky, which seemed completely unharmed, only having three miles of its ‘skin’ scraped off, and once again condensed the Great Sun Divine Fire Shield:

“Quickly, go invite the Celestial Emperor!”

The Celestial Official, who was behind the Celestial Official of Stars and was called ‘Third Brother’ by him, seeing this scene, immediately slipped back to the Immortal Capital of the Great Yu Dynasty through the interdimensional gate that had transformed into a wormhole.

Among all the Celestial Officials, the Celestial Official of Stars was not the strongest, but he was certainly stronger than him.

The Celestial Official of Stars started spitting blood after taking one slap from the Lesser Star God; if he were to go up and resist, he might be instantly flattened into a meat paste.

A wise man does not stand under a tottering wall; when the sky falls, the tall ones bear the brunt.

So he listened to the Celestial Official of Stars, honestly drilling back to the other end of the wormhole to request aid.

‘After the interdimensional gate mutated, it seems the speed of traversing the two realms became even faster.’

While making this comparison, upon returning to the Great Yu Immortal Dynasty’s Realm Hunting Department, he didn’t hesitate and directly requested aid from the Great Yu Celestial Emperor through the Immortal Dynasty’s Luck.

“Celestial Emperor, we have encountered a formidable enemy in the other realm. The Celestial Official of Stars is no match for the enemy from the other realm and has been severely wounded by a single blow. We request the Celestial Emperor to act and suppress all directions.”

Great Yu Immortal Dynasty, Chosenden (Court of Immortals Hall).

The Great Yu Celestial Emperor, sitting on his golden throne and cultivating with his eyes closed, heard Celestial Official Le’s summons, opened his eyes, and raised an eyebrow:

“He was severely wounded after one encounter?”

“A bit interesting.”

To the Great Yu Celestial Emperor, someone who could severely wound the Celestial Official of Stars in one encounter and make Celestial Official Le run back to Canglan Star for help was indeed only “a bit interesting.”

After all, if he were to personally act...

Never mind, he wouldn’t even need to move.

He only needed a single thought to crush the Celestial Official of Stars, and it would be even more impossible for Celestial Official Le to run back to Canglan Star to call for help.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve moved. I’ll go see what kind of person it is who can severely wound my beloved Celestial Official in one encounter.”

“If he is willing to submit, he could indeed serve as a great general to charge into battle.”

His interest piqued, he simply stood up, his body having been still for a long time, and took a step forward.

The earth undulated beneath his feet, and space twisted beneath his feet.

When his step landed, the Great Yu Celestial Emperor had already arrived before the interdimensional passage that had transformed into a wormhole.

Countless Great Yu Dynasty soldiers guarding the wormhole, seeing the Great Yu Celestial Emperor suddenly appear, subconsciously lowered their heads and knelt on one knee towards him:

“Greetings, Celestial Emperor!”

“All soldiers, rise.” The Great Yu Celestial Emperor first waved his hand, effortlessly lifting the countless Great Yu soldiers, then looked at the wormhole with some surprise:

“If I’m not mistaken, the nature of the interdimensional gate has been altered. From now on, it can exist permanently?”

As he spoke, he reached out and touched the wormhole again, frowning as he said:

“This thing, how does it seem to have become alive?”

Celestial Official Le spoke at the opportune moment:

“The Celestial Emperor is sagacious.”

“There is a worm in the other realm, appearing out of thin air, shaped like a tadpole, able to swim in the air.”

“After this worm merged into the interdimensional gate, the interdimensional gate transformed into this appearance.”

“If this humble official is not mistaken, it is likely that the worm swallowed the interdimensional gate and became a living interdimensional portal.”

The Great Yu Celestial Emperor nodded slightly:

“Is that so?”

“A wondrous life form.”

“I am becoming increasingly curious about the new world.”

With a hint of anticipation, he was the first to step into the wormhole.

Celestial Official Le followed closely.

Of course, before entering the wormhole, Celestial Official Le did not forget to relay the message to the other Celestial Officials and urged the Great Yu soldiers, who were preparing to conquer the other world, to quickly follow.

The Celestial Emperor naturally did not lack these people.

But whether the Celestial Emperor lacked them was one thing; whether they did their part was another.

On the other side, the Great Yu Celestial Emperor, having passed through the wormhole, immediately saw the Celestial Official of Stars once again falling from high in the sky.

Then, following the direction of the Celestial Official of Stars’ fall, he saw a mountain-like hand that blotted out the sky.

“Oh?”

After a surprised exclamation, he reached out and drew a jade-colored longsword, slashing it at the Lesser Star God’s arm out of thin air.

A towering sword aura ascended from the longsword, and in just an instant, the sword aura sliced across heaven and earth, cutting the Lesser Star God’s mountain-like hand into two sections like a hot knife through butter.

“Good strength.”

“Since it is a star being, it can serve as our Immortal Dynasty’s protective star.”

Watching the Great Yu Celestial Emperor lift the Lesser Star God’s thousand-mile-long mountain-like arm, which had fallen from the sky as if to re-enact the primal forces of earth, fire, wind, and water, and flew it before the Lesser Star God, Yang Dian’s pupils constricted sharply.

“This level of strength...”

The Great Yu Celestial Emperor’s strength surpassed Yang Dian’s imagination.

Yang Dian’s current strength was comparable to that of a Celestial Official.

Even if he was slightly stronger than the Celestial Official of Stars, his advantage was limited.

The Celestial Official of Stars had no power to retaliate against the Lesser Star God, and Yang Dian was much the same.

The Lesser Star God could crush him purely with its immense size.

However, if he could fully digest all the energy, and even Cultivate two more traits from the Heaven and Man Unity Skill...

Yang Dian estimated that he could contend with the Lesser Star God.

Even if he still couldn’t surpass the Lesser Star God, the difference wouldn’t be too great.

But what about the Great Yu Celestial Emperor?

“He seems to genuinely be able to easily defeat the Lesser Star God...”

No sooner had his murmur faded than Yang Dian heard a “Waaah” of crying from high above.

Yang Dian didn’t know how he could ‘hear’ the Lesser Star God’s crying.

But he simply did.

After hearing that cry, a thought arose in his mind.

‘The show is about to begin...’

As the thought emerged, he heard a childish whimper emanating from the Lesser Star God, carried to the distant starry sky... “Waaah~ a bug is bullying baby...”
