Chapter 2657 - The Eternal Shame

In the eyes of the top experts of the six Infinitum Regal Clans, the Flameyellow Guard Formation and the Sky Palace Formation were unbreakable walls they couldn’t pass through!

On the Sun, which was covered in Yin Chen, no matter how they tried escaping, there would come a day when they would face judgment. Of course, those were matters for later.

The Sun had already won most of the war after the death of three million astral gods, tens of thousands of destroyed top-tier astralships, and the slaughtering of countless warbeasts. However, it couldn't be considered a complete victory. The final step was reuniting with the Swordgod Lin Clan of the Infinitum Swordsea.

It was a moment of celebration for the Sun's camp, but Xiaodao had a lingering worry in his heart. "This is a tremendous victory that we couldn't predict beforehand. Our victory means the catastrophic defeat of the ebons! They lost three million astral gods and tens of thousands of ships, which is equivalent to losing two-fifths of their strength! It’s shaken the foundation of the ebon alliance. This battle turned the ebons' original banner of righteousness into a joke, rendering it meaningless.... In such a situation, if Shenxi Xingtian still wants to turn the tide, he can only place all of his bets on the breakout of the Infinitum Swordsea!"

Fortunately, the Lin Clan had managed to break through in time; otherwise, if news of the ebons' devastating defeat had reached them first, they would have mustered all their strength to surround the Infinitum Swordsea for revenge. Then, the Infinitum Swordsea would never have been able to leave Ebonia and would have suffered heavy casualties, perhaps in the hundreds of millions!

Now, because they broke out early, the remaining forces of the ebons on Ebonia couldn't catch up.

As for the Second Exterminatus Army, they were evenly matched with the Lin Clan, so they didn't necessarily pose a fatal threat.

"So there’ll only be the Ebonfiend going over from our battlefield. I must cling to the Ebonfiend. In space, it will be an even match. Once Feng’er awakens, we’ll have a seventy percent chance! Rex Mundi Meng Ying and the Dreamchild have already suffered heavy damage. We still have Brother Wudi in our main base, so even if the ebons want to fight us in space, we can hold our ground...."

Xiaodao informed Wudi before beginning to chase the Ebonfiend. “The Ebonfiend is now hairless, so it’s even more disadvantaged against me now! I just have to be careful of experts like Shenxi Xingtian attacking my ship.” They couldn’t relax even though they had won a huge victory. “Feng'er and Brother Wudi have done so much. Aside from restraining the Ebonfiend, I haven't done anything. I need to hold out till our reunion with the Lin Clan!" The Sun's camp was only lacking powerful individuals, so they needed the Lin Clan more than ever.

Two infinitum-class ships were in a frantic chase across the astralscape. At that moment, a command, transmitted relay by relay, reached the Second Exterminatus Army in the distant star sector, along with the news of the defeat of the Exterminatus Army and Rex Mundi Meng Ying. The command, short and to the point, reached Shenxi Tianxi.

"Immediately engage the Swordgod Lin Clan. Capture Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue!" It was a command from Shenxi Xingtian. It was also the last chance of action from the ebons and the five regal clans.

"The second infinitum-class ship is controlled by Lin Feng?!"

"The Dreamchild was defeated!!"

"Only the Ebonfiend escaped... everyone else is trapped within the formation. Three million astral gods may have been lost?"

The information was an absolute thunderbolt for the Second Exterminatus Army. The previous battle report that’d just come back stated that the Dreamchild had appeared and the Sun was in retreat. The difference in information between then and now was as vast as the heavens and earth. The worldview of the more than five hundred thousand astral gods in the Second Exterminatus Army was irreparably shaken. They stood there stunned.

"My brother didn't make it out?!" Shengkai Linyi of the sanctlighters screamed in despair, plunging the five hundred thousand astral gods into chaos. Many people were panicked, not daring to think about what it meant. Some cried and mourned because their loved ones and friends had died on that battlefield.

"It must be a mistake...."

"It's impossible!"

"No, it can't be!"

"What kind of joke is this? Where’d so many infinitum-class ships come from? For tens of millions of years, there was only the Ebonfiend, but now you're telling me there were four infinitum-class ships in one big battle?"

"It's fake, it has to be fake!"

Many astral gods shouted in denial, their faces pale, their voices full of despair. In reality, they all knew that the news had come from Shenxi Xingtian. They knew that all of it had happened, but they just didn't want to admit it. They had just recovered from the news that two million astral gods had been killed by a celestial tome. When they’d heard that the Sun was on the verge of collapse, they had only just breathed a sigh of relief.

As the first to receive the news, their mental states had already been shattered. It was easy to imagine what would shortly happen on Ebonia.

"Shut up, all of you!" Shenxi Tianxi stood among the crowd, a black soul storm surging around him. He could only instill fear in everyone by speaking like that. "We lost, that's right! It’s our most severe and unacceptable defeat since the era of the Swordgod Lin Clan’s two consecutive reges mundi!" Shenxi Tianxi’s words finally made the rest understand.

So, it turns out that their previous disastrous loss was caused by the Lin Clan, too! No wonder, no wonder! They still remembered that, more than ten years ago, the Lin Clan was a small dog that could be easily manipulated in their eyes.

The psychological gap was too great.

In their moments of despair, Shenxi Tianxi changed his tone and loudly declared, "But! This time, we still have a chance to turn the tide! We have the ability to avenge our fallen brethren! We have an opportunity to wash away the eternal shame of today!"

Upon hearing that, many sorrowful people raised their heads, staring blankly at Shenxi Tianxi. Some of them had already realized what he meant, and their eyes turned bloodshot.

"Our opportunity is...."

Everyone perked up their ears, and their hatred and killing intent grew crazier.

"Attack the Swordgod Lin Clan! Capture Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue! Use the lives of the billion Lin Clansmen to force the Sun to surrender, then use the blood of all of them to pay tribute to the spirits of our fallen brethren in the heavens!"

"Kill! Kill them all!"

The Second Exterminatus Army completely erupted. None of them were willing to accept defeat like this, their sense of superiority was stronger than anyone's.

Even though they had lost the first round so badly, they still had a chance to turn things around. At this moment, if they didn't fight to the death, they would regret it for the rest of their lives. If the battle ended with the current result, they would never be able to lift their heads again.

They now only regretted being somewhat conservative at the beginning. If they had known that the Swordgod Lin Clan would really break out, they would have sent more people to surround the Infinitum Swordsea and the desperate battle would be much easier now.

Ahead of the Second Exterminatus Army was the Lin Clan, with more than three hundred sword-ships.

One by one, the ships of the Second Exterminatus Army, powered by nova source, suddenly exploded as they shot forward!
