CHAPTER 951: CHAPTER 548: DEMON GOD DESCENT, BLUE STAR CRISIS
"Damn reptile, you don’t know how severe the consequences are for provoking a True God like this!"
The Wing Demon God Salion spat out through gritted teeth, having just lost his second arm.
For a Demon God, growing a new arm was simple, but the lost Divine Power could never be recovered.
Under the deterrence of the God Slayer’s Strength, he could only watch helplessly as Lu Heng slowly stripped away his Divine Power.
Every loss of power meant a drop in his Divine Rank.
On the surface of the Metal Planet.
Lu Heng plunged the Aurora Blade into the severed arm of the Demon God, quickly absorbing Divine Power through the blade.
The Divine Power poured into his body, merging with the original power, making the growing Divine Power Core ever larger in size.
Continue to gather like this and a true Divine Status would form.
Possessing a Divine Status meant advancing to a True God, subject to the restrictions of the World Law.
Thus, Lu Heng was not in a hurry to break through his current Rank, dispersing the Divine Power throughout his body instead of consolidating it into the Divine Power Core.
During this time, the Xavier Matrix continuously repeated the countdown.
Ten, nine, eight... ten, nine, eight...
Finally, until Lu Heng finished absorbing the Divine Power from the Demon God’s severed arm.
Lu Heng exhaled a long breath, waved at Salion in Outer Space, and smiled saying, "Thank you for the God’s gift."
Indeed, it was a gift from a God, without a single flaw.
Salion was on the verge of exploding with rage; if he could crush Lu Heng, he wouldn’t hesitate for even a second.
However, he was truly helpless.
Even a Demon God is still subject to the World Law.
Lu Heng waved at him and said slowly, "If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave."
After saying this, Lu Heng opened the Star Gate, teleporting away, returning to Blue Star.
Salion intended to stop him, but his meticulously laid plans had already failed; trying to stop Lu Heng again would indeed just be another "gift."
Just as Lu Heng left, the Xavier Matrix detonated the Antimatter Bomb.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
The terrifying explosions erupted at the core of the Metal Planet, igniting the nuclear reactions at its core.
A chain of nuclear reactions surged from the core to the surface of the entire planet.
In an instant, it was as if countless volcanoes on the planet were erupting.
Lava spewed forth, engulfing everything on the surface, including the Mechanical Demons.
The surface temperature of the planet rose to 1500 degrees, melting minerals, rocks, soil, and metals.
The entire Metal Planet quickly transformed into a red-hot iron ball, the extreme temperatures enough to kill any life form.
The Antimatter Bomb’s explosion did not shatter the Metal Planet into pieces.
The power of the Antimatter Bomb alone isn’t enough to blow apart a planet of such massive mass.
The strategy calculated by the Xavier Matrix aimed to turn the entire planet into an iron ball through intense heat.
This method of destruction is quite similar to a planetary attack strategy called "Glassing" in Stellaris.
Only the means to achieve this are different.
If the same method were used on Blue Star, Blue Star wouldn’t become a red iron ball; the soil and rocks would melt and, upon cooling, would solidify into glass.
The whole planet’s surface would be like a brilliant glass ball.
The Metal Planet’s metal element mass exceeds 80%, lacking enough sand, so it wouldn’t solidify into glass but rather into an iron ball—as if just pulled from a steel furnace.
The cooling process would take several days, even months.
As for the planetary ecosystem, it would take millions of years to recover.
However, this is viewed from a biological standpoint.
If we consider mechanical units, it’s a different story.
Before the explosion began, the Xavier Matrix had already lifted all airborne mechanical units into space.
Therefore, the Sword Holder team on Blue Star could witness the entire apocalypse on the Metal Planet through the Xavier Matrix’s Sky Eye System.
Endless dust hovered over the planet, possibly lingering for millions of years.
The planet’s surface reached its highest temperature three hours after the explosion, cooling gradually after maintaining the temperature for three days.
No form of life could survive in this planetary apocalypse, including the Mechanical Demons.
The Abyss Pollution Source was also eradicated in this doomsday catastrophe.
...
Successfully destroying the Metal Planet resolved the crisis on the Sikes Civilization’s Capital Star.
Afterward, Lu Heng returned to the Sikes World, helping them close the Abyss Rift, and finally securing a strategic alliance agreement signed by the Sikes Military.
The Sikes Civilization agreed to unconditionally provide the Sword Holder Alliance with Technology Weapons.
This means, in the future, the Sword Holders would have an endless supply of Antimatter Bombs.
Of course, weapons of this magnitude cannot be casually thrown around.
The Sikes Civilization would perform calculations to provide a suitable amount of weapons.
A month later, the Metal Planet’s surface gradually cooled.
Xavier’s mechanical units in space returned to the surface and began reconstructing Nanomechanical Factories to exploit the planet’s resources.
This Metal Planet’s environment had been devastated, making it unsuitable for biological habitation.
However, it didn’t greatly affect mechanical units.
...
After the Metal Planet incident ended, the Sword Holders returned to their respective worlds.
Entering a period of tranquility.
However, two weeks into this peace, human scientists detected anomalous hurricane data over Blue Star’s ocean.
The hurricane active season on Blue Star’s largest ocean is from July to October each year.
Yet, in April, hurricane data appeared.
