The realm quivered under the devastating aftermath of the seven celestial bodies’ destruction. The once serene expanse of stars trembled with the force of the cataclysm, sending shockwaves that swept across the entire realm. The very fabric of reality strained under the tremendous impact, causing widespread chaos and destruction.
Amidst the chaos, the gaze of peak experts converged upon the Starry Night World. A collective gasp rippled through the crowd as they beheld the horrifying sight before them. Never before had such a calamity befallen the cherished planet. The vibrant celestial array that had safeguarded the Starry Night World for ages had been breached, reducing its majestic defenses to mere remnants.
The shock on their faces was a testament to the disbelief that gripped their hearts. The tales of the Starry Night Celestial Array’s impregnability had been handed down through generations, whispered with reverence and awe. Since the mysterious departure of the Starry Sky Savorgion, no soul had dared to lay a finger upon this planet, let alone attempt to dismantle its formidable protective array.
Yet, amidst this backdrop of astonishment and trepidation, the tiger’s eyes blazed with a malevolent spark. Its predatory gaze swept across the chaos, its lips curling into a fearsome smile of triumph. With an earth-shattering roar that echoed through the very core of the planet, the tiger declared its intent to obliterate the Starry Night World in its entirety.
Astonishment turned to horror as the colossal beast raised its massive paw, ready to unleash its full fury upon the defenseless planet below. The realm trembled in anticipation, awaiting the cataclysmic blow that would seal the planet’s fate.
"Halt!" A thunderous voice pierced through the chaos, tinged with anger and urgency. The command resonated with authority, compelling attention even amidst the chaos. Yet, the tiger remained undeterred, its eyes blazing with unyielding determination. The force of its rampage continued unabated, defying the command that sought to halt its destructive charge.
The air crackled with tension and impending doom. The planet seemed to hold its breath as the colossal paw descended, threatening to obliterate everything in its path. But just as despair threatened to consume the hearts of those watching, a miraculous intervention occurred.
A brilliant ray of light, resplendent with hues of seven distinct colors, materialized before the descending paw. The ray pierced the air with unparalleled grace and precision, intercepting the tiger’s claw with unyielding resolve. A powerful surge of energy enveloped the claw, restraining its destructive momentum. The clash between the ray and the claw created a dazzling display of ethereal brilliance, momentarily suspending the impending catastrophe.
In a resounding explosion, the cocoon of energy disintegrated, wiping out not only the tiger’s manifestation but also its fervent aspirations. The chaos subsided, replaced by a sense of awe and wonder as the scene settled into stillness.
Amidst the dissipating energy, a figure emerged from the decimated aftermath, emanating an inherent aura of authority and power. This tall and majestic man possessed a countenance framed by a mane of short, black hair and a well-groomed beard. Clad in a simple white robe, his presence commanded both respect and awe. None could deny that he was the enigmatic Star Devourer Daoist, an enigma shrouded in legend and myth.
Contrary to the rumors and speculation that surrounded his name, Star Devourer exuded an aura of righteous nobility and moral compass. His commanding presence and unwavering righteousness set him apart from the fabrications and exaggerations that had circulated throughout the realm. He was a force to be reckoned with, a paragon of virtue and strength.
In the wake of the confrontation, with tensions thick in the air, Star Devourer’s voice resonated with a blend of anger and genuine concern. "Bi Tian, are you truly out of your mind? Do you not realize the consequences of your actions? You seek to plunge our entire domain into a devastating war!"
Bi Tian, unaffected by the gravity of the situation unfolding before him, let out a booming laughter that echoed through the chaotic atmosphere. "I, Bi Tian, have never cowered before any challenge in my entire existence! I fear neither the known nor the unknown!"
The name of Bi Tian, the commander of the mortal ascension legion, was renowned throughout the realm. His ascent to the Dao Integration Realm had caused a stir of amazement and admiration, symbolized by the manifestation of a resplendent white tiger that had roamed across the realm. Whispers of countless experts falling beneath his might circulated in hushed tones, instilling a sense of both fear and awe in those who heard. Bi Tian, driven by an insatiable hunger for power and domination, had traveled far and wide, seeking out the most formidable adversaries to test his mettle. It was a testament to his strength that he had suffered only two defeats—one against the infamous Mo Ji and the other against the martial rising realm lord.
Star Devourer’s narrowed eyes pierced through Bi Tian’s audacious laughter, his gaze both sharp and discerning. "Then I demand an explanation! What could possibly motivate you to wreak such devastation upon our world?"
Bi Tian’s lips curled into a sneer, his eyes glinting with disdain as he flung a jade slip towards Star Devourer. With seamless agility, Star Devourer caught it, swiftly scanning its contents with his divine sense. Contemplation flashed across Star Devourer’s face before his gaze settled once more upon Bi Tian.
"Are you truly willing to sow this cataclysm for the sake of mere Dao Integration Realm brats?" Star Devourer’s voice echoed with incredulity, his mind struggling to comprehend the magnitude of Bi Tian’s actions.
Bi Tian’s narrowed eyes gleamed with unwavering determination. "While I wouldn’t typically concern myself with trivial matters, I can’t simply ignore an injustice befalling one of my esteemed generals. As a leader, it is my responsibility to ensure the well-being and fairness for all my subordinates."

"A general?!"
Star Devourer’s brow furrowed, his initial disbelief gradually giving way to contemplation. While he had granted Mi Ling the authority to act as she saw fit, the prospect of slaying one of the esteemed legion generals appeared to surpass the boundaries he had set.
Star Devourer cleared his throat before responding. "Since reconciliation seems impossible, it falls upon us to mitigate the damage that will undoubtedly follow."
Bi Tian’s sneer persisted, his gaze filled with undisguised contempt. "Hmph, as cowardly as ever. Enlighten me then. What do you propose?"
Star Devourer’s voice held a semblance of compromise as he pondered the situation at hand. "How about we agree to restrict this monumental clash to only those experts at the half-step Void Transformation realm and above?"
Bi Tian raised an intrigued eyebrow, momentarily caught off guard by the unexpected proposal. "Do you truly believe such a limitation would be sufficient to alleviate the situation?"
A feeling of frustration welled within Star Devourer, his heart torn between reason and the weight of their circumstances. They were undeniably in the wrong, yet a compromise was necessary. "Let it be declared that within twenty-four hours, the side with the fewer casualties shall be deemed the victor. If you emerge triumphant, you shall be granted seven opportunities to traverse the Starry Pathway."
A triumphant smirk graced Bi Tian’s face, his laughter reverberating through the disquieted air. "That, my friend, is a satisfactory agreement." With his proclamation, he abruptly vanished into the swirling chaos, leaving a sense of anticipation in his wake.
The heavy gates of a fortified castle groaned slowly open, revealing the emergence of ten figures clad in resplendent armor. The polished silver glinted in the flickering light, casting an aura of invincibility upon each one. The sheer power emanating from their presence was enough to suffocate even the most seasoned of Dao Integration Realm experts.
Star Devourer shook his head in disapproval, before disappearing as well. In his wake, a group of ten ethereal figures emerged, draped in delicate white robes that shimmered with an otherworldly glow. Each of them radiated a captivating aura, brimming with a potency that rivaled the might of the ten white-armored experts. Light seemed to dance around their graceful forms, hinting at the depths of their otherworldly power.
The countdown had begun. The clash between the forces of the Legion and the Alliance was imminent. With every passing moment, the tension in the air grew, setting the stage for a battle that would shake the whole domain.
From the side of the Legion, a figure clad in dark armor stepped forward, exuding an aura of raw power. His towering presence seemed to command the very elements themselves, as his deep, resonant voice echoed across the battlefield. His eyes burned with intense fire, revealing the years of battle and wisdom that lay behind them.
This late-stage Void Transformation Realm expert was known as Shen Yulong, a sword dao expert who had honed his skills to perfection.
On the side of the Alliance, a figure clad in flowing robes emerged, radiating an air of tranquility amidst the chaos. His aura was one of serenity and purity, contrasting with the darkness of his adversary. With a serene smile on his face, he radiated an inner strength that belied his youthful appearance.
This expert was known as Mei Lin, a five elements dao expert whose cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the late-stage Void Transformation Realm. His every movement contained a fluid grace, as if he was one with the world around him.
