Chapter 46 - Third Abundance War

"Lord Wingperor, all of our people have gathered. Once Ketu Mirage arrives, we can launch a full assault."

On a desolate planet, countless creatures known as wingweavers were stationed.

They were one of the races among the 'Denizens of Abundance,' what the Xianzhou Alliance called the 'Abominations of Abundance.'

They came in many different forms, like slimes, birds, insects, fish, horses, wolves, foxes, trees, and many more.

For example, besides 'Wingweavers,' a race with wings that made them resemble birds, there were also 'Houyhnhnms,' who looked like centaurs; Borisins, who looked like wolves; 'Foxians,' who looked like foxes; and 'Cobrakinds,' who looked like snakes.

"Hmph, the Yaoqing have become more and more brutal, basically a killing machine for our people. If we don't do something, sooner or later, they'll come knocking on our door."

A wingweaver with six wings grumbled.

He was the leader of the wingweavers, known by the title of 'Wingperor.'

Over the years, he had heard many things about the borisins.

Together with Koolur, the Xianzhou Yaoqing went everywhere, destroying the homes of the borisins.

In his eyes, they were basically no different from the Antimatter Legion, spreading destruction everywhere!

In the past, the home planet of the wingweavers, Muldrasil, had been destroyed by a Lord Ravager, and now, with the Xianzhou Alliance about to come for them too, he could not just sit and wait to die, letting that disaster repeat.

For this reason, several major races of Abundance had joined forces to seize Yaoshi's divine miracles of the Xianzhou, called 'Plaguemarks' by the Xianzhou Alliance or 'Traces of Abundance' by the Denizens of Abundance.

"As long as we seize the Miniature Myriads in the Fanghu, I will gain the power of Emanator, and may even catch the attention of our god, Yaoshi... I could become a true Emanator of Abundance!"

Speaking with a deep voice, the Wingperor unfurled his six wings, exuding an imposing aura.

He claimed to be an Emanator of Abundance, but in reality, he was merely a powerful Pathstrider who was close to becoming one.

Still, this was his chance to soar to the top—so that claim would become reality.

In fact, the leaders of the other Abundance races thought the same way.

Previously, they had attacked the Yuque alongside an Emanator of Abundance—and failed.

They had also attacked the Luofu—and failed again.

After much discussion, since the Zhuming was known to lack a Trace of Abundance, the Yaoqing had too much military strength, and the Xuling had a powerful marshal guarding it, the Abundance forces set their sights on the Fanghu.

Xianzhou Fanghu was self-governed by the vidyadhara, whose numbers were pitifully small—yet they possessed a Trace of Abundance, the 'Miniature Myriads.'

They were truly a perfect target—a direct assault with the Abundance forces' overwhelming numbers could easily crush them.

What could the Fanghu's Arbiter-General do?

Faced with such overwhelming numbers, even she would eventually run out of strength.

===

Xianzhou Fanghu, Seat of Seiche Queller.

At this moment, a beautiful general with exotic dragon horns on her head, which gave her a striking, otherworldly presence, furrowed her brows as she dialed one call after another, seeking help from every direction.

She was General Xuanquan, the Arbiter-General of the Xianzhou Fanghu, known as the Seiche Queller.

Unfortunately, after calling everyone she knew, all potential reinforcements were too far from the Fanghu and would need time to arrive.

'Damn it, there are too many abominations, and it's a joint force of several races, all with high-level fighters... I'm afraid I'll be exhausted before I kill them all...'

Xuanquan's head throbbed with worry.

No matter how strong an Emanator was, against this many enemies, she would be overwhelmed.

It was just like when the Galaxy Rangers lured the swarm to assassinate an Emanator of Destruction.

Now, things looked about the same, as the number of these Abundance forces was no different from the swarm that had been manipulated by the Galaxy Rangers.

It was all Plagues Author Yaoshi's fault, constantly enlightening new creatures, causing Abominations of Abundance to appear endlessly, springing up like weeds after rain.

'Is this the end...? No!'

As Xuanquan was in despair, she remembered there was a Master Diviner here.

"Master Diviner Jingtian, hurry and calculate our odds of victory this time!"

In the center of the hall, a man in simple short clothes was fiddling with his divination tools.

He was Jingtian, Master Diviner from the Divination Commission of the Yuque, and also Fu Xuan's master, sent to assist the Fanghu.

'Twenty percent...' Jingtian thought to himself. 'And that's only thanks to the Yaoqing wiping out countless abominations in recent years. Otherwise... the odds would be less than ten percent...'

Currently, the Fanghu had fewer than a million troops, while the Abundance forces had at least ten million.

Moreover, with no other Arbiter-Generals able to support them in time, he truly saw no way out.

'Wait, now that I think about it, over the past twenty years, the Yaoqing has been closely tied with another force of Abundance from... Ko... Koolur? Right, Koolur!'

Jingtian seemed to remember something important and immediately began fiddling with his divination tools again.

Xuanquan, on the other hand, paced back and forth, nearly frantic with anxiety as she waited for Jingtian's divination, hoping for a glimmer of hope.

At this moment, while the Abundance forces were waiting for their living planet to arrive, the Fanghu could do nothing but wait for their doom.

A few minutes later, Jingtian suddenly opened his eyes and shouted to Xuanquan.

"General, there is a chance of victory!"

"Hurry and invite the Emanator of Abundance from Koolur!"

"I can't figure out the reason, but if he helps us, there will be a great victory for us!"

Hearing Jingtian scream like he had gone mad, Xuanquan was startled.

They were being besieged by the Abundance forces, yet he wanted the help of an Emanator of Abundance?

Besides, the Fanghu had no connection with Koolur.

Would they even come?

Xuanquan was feeling stumped.

It would be a miracle if that Emanator didn't join the assault on the Fanghu, yet now they were supposed to ask for his help?

Even though it made no sense, Xuanquan, having no alternatives, still followed Jingtian's instructions, since this was, after all, the Master Diviner from the Yuque, so his words carried weight.

"Yueyu, can you get in touch with the Emanator on Koolur? Yes, I need his help."

"Hurry, the battle's about to begin. I'm not sure how long we can hold out since the Fanghu is severely undermanned."

"You need the Abundance forces' coordinates? Sure, I'll send them to you."

===

Meanwhile, in a small courtyard somewhere in Koolur, Yueyu ended the call with Xuanquan, then looked at Lucian.

"Now that the Alliance and Xuanquan herself have called me, I need to go support them. What about you?"

"I'm going!" Feixiao immediately reacted.

Lucian, on the other hand, gazed at Yueyu and did not answer right away.

He remembered that, according to the original story, this battle would be called the 'Third Abundance War.'

Sadly, even after Yueyu went to help the Fanghu, they still could not achieve victory.

In the end, it was only when Lan, the Aeon of the Hunt, personally intervened that the Third Abundance War ended.

However, the price was that one-fifth of the Fanghu was destroyed, and Yueyu, along with the Cloud Knights and the Verdant Knights who followed her, were also caught in the aftermath and died, turning to dust, leaving not even a corpse behind.

Ironically, they hadn't died at the hands of their enemies, but at the hands of the Aeon they believed in.

Lucian sighed softly, then spoke up.

"Where's the enemy? Tell me the coordinates."

"Here."

Upon hearing Lucian's question, Yueyu nodded inwardly.

Yueyu knew Lucian would definitely take action, which was why she had asked Xuanquan for the Abundance forces' coordinates beforehand. Even though she could never fully understand his miraculous abilities, she rushed to him and showed the coordinates without hesitation.

"Go get ready. We'll be at the battlefield in ten minutes."

Leaving these words behind, Lucian stood up and shot off into the sky.

Ten minutes was the time needed for Koolur's army to get ready.

As for traveling the three million light-years to the battlefield of the Abundance forces and the Fanghu, it would only take one second, mainly because Lucian had discovered that Absolute Hit could also be set to strike at a specified time.
