Chapter 2662 - Fatal Blow

Compared to the alien monster, Shenxi Tianxi was even more urgent. In front of the Lin Clan's Milky Way Sword Formation, if the alien monster failed, it would mean complete defeat for the ebons! How could he accept that?

How many souls of the Exterminatus Army would die unavenged?

The Second Exterminatus Army had already exhausted everything they had. At that point, most people still didn't know that Shenxi Tianxi had found a new ally. Everyone was in tears, psychologically shattered, and the five hundred thousand astral gods were filled with grief and anger.

Now, as news of the confirmed major defeat on the Sun was transmitted back to Ebonia, for the first time in tens of millions of years, a massive infinitum-class shockwave was spreading to every Ebonia inhabitant's ears.

Most people still didn't know that, within a corner of the cosmos, the ebons still had a chance to turn the tide and achieve a shocking reversal. The most tragic joke in history was circulating among Ebonia, and all of it would become a joke for the next few thousand years.

"It's a must! Immediately let all our ebon brethren see the dawn! Let them turn their sorrow into jubilation!" Countless negative emotions filled Shenxi Tianxi's heart as unwillingness, anger, and frustration filled his chest.

The good news was that the alien monster had a plan for cooperation. It even explained the details of the inside and outside coordination. It indicated that, from the very beginning, it hadn't intended to face the Lin Clan alone.

"This is our last chance! When everyone in the Infinitum Mundus despairs and loses hope in us, we’ll break through, suppress the Lin Clan dogs, take everything from them, rejuvenate the glory of the ebons, and pass down our legacy for a million generations!" That was their faith, but also a nightmare in Shenxi Tianxi's heart.

Cooperation had been achieved.

The alien monster hidden within the Grandvoid didn't close the transmission stone. He was clearly looking for an opportunity.

Inside the Ebonfiend Minor, there was still a sense of gloom. Shenxi Tianxi's heart wildly raced and his golden eyes on his hands began violently fluctuating.

At that moment, ‘Lin Jianxing’ whispered a sentence. "You can start rallying."

"Yes!"

Rallying meant boosting morale for the impending desperate assault, the final war mobilization. Raising morale was a process, especially in times of extreme despair like now. Of course, Shenxi Tianxi couldn't rally his troops too early, or the other side would catch wind of it and become alert.

Since the alien monster had called for mobilization, it meant it was about to launch an attack.

"Everyone.” Shenxi Tianxi opened the transmission stones of the controllers of the major astralships. Golden figures appeared before him one by one, all looking furious and helpless. "Maybe you won't believe it, but I want to tell you that we haven't lost yet. Now, please join me in looking forward to the opportunity to destroy this branch of the Lin Clan. It's right in front of us! You must be curious—at this point, can our ebons still have any cards? Do I have the courage to talk about a reversal victory?

"Words alone won't cut it. At this moment, every member of the Second Exterminatus Army shall witness it together! Let’s focus our gaze on the Grandvoid! The other side has no idea that we planted a big surprise there long ago! Before the surprise arrives, the only thing each of us has to do is prepare for battle!"

The Second Exterminatus Army was eager to win, eager to escape the current frustration. Many of them even carried deep blood feuds. In that situation, Shenxi Tianxi's firm and confident words were undoubtedly a ray of light in the darkness for most people.

"Really?"

"At a time like this, is there any need for such jokes?"

"On the Sun, the other side relied on constantly revealing their trump cards to repel the Exterminatus Army. Both sides mutually schemed, so it's normal for us to have some means as well!"

"If you had any means, why didn't you use them just now?"

"You don't understand. It just wasn't a good time right then. But now, after the other side just repelled us once and achieved victory on both fronts, this is when they’re the most proud and relaxed. Striking a fatal blow at this moment will yield the best results!"

"That makes sense."

"I told you, we’re the number one race in the Infinitum Mundus’s history! Ninety percent of the time, we've been the supreme rulers! How could we lose to a small clan!"

"Brothers, prepare for slaughter!"

Many people's hearts raced and their eyes turned crimson. The astralships of the Second Exterminatus Army, as if awakened, picked up their weapons once again and began gathering nova source as they bared their fangs.

Inside the Grandvoid, fifty million people were gathered. They mostly came from the second branch and were the core of the Lin Clan. To facilitate battle arrangements, they were all gathered around Lin Xiao and Dongshen Yue. As an ether-class ship, the Grandvoid could accommodate fifty million people without feeling too crowded, but if everyone's lifebound beasts were released, the space would definitely be insufficient.

Included were over a hundred top-tier experts from the second branch, all in the mid to high level of the Cosmic Cartography stage. As the core of the second branch, they were always ready for battle! The Grandvoid was large, but after accommodating fifty million people, the visual impact was still quite shocking.

From the smiles on people's faces, one could see that the Lin Clan's will was unprecedentedly inflated due to the epic victory on the Sun and their recent victory against the Second Exterminatus Army.

Many people had started relaxing, but Lin Xiao and the others kept reminding them not to let their guard down until they rendezvoused with their compatriots on the Sun. They remained cautious; after all, they could see that the Second Exterminatus Army was still relentlessly pursuing them!

"Wandering the starry sky is the most dangerous time for us! Until we reach the Sun, we must be prepared for war at all times! Everyone, hold on!" Lin Xiao had lived too long and had too much experience. Many people lost focus before victory, leading to an all-around loss. He reminded the young people, shouting loudly and hoarsely through transmission stones not to be careless.

The vigilance of the old man that the young people respected would gradually make them more alert. The Lin Clan was on full alert! That included the Grandnorth Dongshen Clan, who had joined before leaving Ebonia. Dongshen Zhuojun had brought three hundred million people and tens of thousands of astral gods with him, making the astralships even more crowded. In the recent battle, they didn’t participate, but had watched the Lin Clan's magnificence from behind the sword formation.

"The second patriarch is really meticulous."

"Having an elder is like having a treasure."

"He's right. We can't relax for a moment until we reach the Sun."

"Thinking carefully, it's easy to understand. We’re the ebons' only chance to turn defeat into victory. Even if they lost once, as we get closer to the Sun, they'll have to fight again!"

"Come a few more times, kill them a few more times, until they admit defeat!"

Although they had relaxed a bit just now, the faith of all the Lin Clan members remained fervent.

At the forefront of the crowd, Lin Xiao, wearing a black robe, controlled the Grandvoid while monitoring the movements of the Second Exterminatus Army with Dongshen Yue. After decades of indulgence, he was now in the state he had once been when he desperately fought. He was completely focused, not even blinking. All other distractions were pushed aside. He felt a deep sense of responsibility to the entire clan, especially after Lin Dan's death.

After Lin Ku had left, the burden had fallen onto him.

Seeing her old man so wholeheartedly return to this state, Dongshen Yue couldn't help but feel emotional.

"Don't get distracted!" She slightly relaxed, and Lin Xiao immediately reminded her.

"Hmph, you’re being too serious." Dongshen Yue rolled her eyes at him. Although her face showed disdain, she was still obedient. She had also been keeping an eye on the changes in the Second Exterminatus Army.

"Hmm?" At this moment, she quickly patted Lin Xiao and said, "There's a change on the other side. They seem to have activated their nova source and are preparing for a second wave of attacks!"

"So soon?" Lin Xiao had thought that after being defeated last time, they would endure for a while longer. In fact, he knew deep down that relying solely on the Milky Way Sword Formation would give them an advantage, but once the other side became proficient and launched a dispersed attack, it was unlikely that the Lin Clan would be able to wipe out the Second Exterminatus Army.

Being pursued was normal. He just didn't expect the second wave of attacks to come so soon.

"Everyone, be on guard and prepare for battle!" Lin Xiao shouted. Controlling astralships wasn’t difficult in an astralship battle. He just needed to transmit the battle orders to the controllers of the hundreds of ships.

"Yes!"

Lin Xiao kept a close eye on the rear. Depending on the enemy's attack pattern, he would decide which Milky Way Sword Formation to use.

"Nephew, is there a chance the other side has some tricks up their sleeves, attacking again so quickly?" Dongshen Zhuojun's star battleship was on the side, and he had a clearer view.

"It's possible!" Lin Xiao was also puzzled, so he focused his attention on the Second Exterminatus Army. When he saw them rushing forward in a frenzy, he prepared to make a decisive decision and use Sword Formation Eight to launch a massive sword bombardment.

Just at the moment when he was completely focused, the Sword in the Forest inside his spatial ring suddenly vibrated.

"Danger!" Lin Xiao's swordheart twitched and his scalp tingled.

"Get out of the way!" he loudly shouted, and the Sword in the Forest suddenly appeared in his hand. At the same time, his swordbeasts leapt from his lifebound space and transformed directly into spiritual bodies that poured into the sword, drastically changing the appearance of this divine sword.

The Sword in the Forest was an infinitum-class artifact! The Lin Clan, besides their business and unique swordbeasts, also had important signature items—their ancestral infinitum-class cosmic artifacts, of which they ranked second in the mundus in the number they possessed!
