Chapter 2884 - Meng Ying's Eight Million
Meng Ying's voice sounded harrowed and pitiful as he recounted what had happened. When Shenxi Xingtian heard about how Xiaodao had beca foundationeer, his skeletal eyes seemed even more sunk in than before. Shaking his head, he said, "To think that he could even disrupt the opening of a Xenoworld gate!" Normally, not even Yi Daiyan would be able to stop them from leaving if they both had their divine wonders out.
"We were too careless! It's over.... Hahaha...." Meng Ying laid flat on the table, laughing and crying at the stas he struggled to find words to describe his predicament.
"It's over? No, Meng Ying! I understand how you feel. This is exactly how I lost to their unconventional tricks!" Shenxi Xingtian empathetically said. Meng Ying was a brother in a tof need!
"Hahahaha!" Meng Ying's laughter contained a hint of madness and ruthlessness. "You’re right, Shenxi Xingtian, I've becno different from you. After losing this time, I can no longer turn back. If I don't win, I’ll die! I can't let her sacrifice down. I must bet on everything and spill their blood to clear the debt!" Back then, all the SkydMundus had wanted was a share of the loot, but now they would be fighting for vengeance.
"That's right! We can't let these people get away with it." Despite the angered look on Shenxi Xingtian's face, he was actually secretly glad that he was no longer the sole loser in all this. Both he and Meng Ying would be on the slevel when dealing with Myriadpath Valley and Intrepidus. Not to mention, the divine wonderians as a whole would put in much more effort than they had originally intended! And furthermore, with the disciple of Mister Taihe captured, he would no doubt be angered and fight even harder. Everyone would have a true stake in the conflict.
"Brother Meng Ying, the divine wonderians' love and loyalty for each other have existed since the beginning. You truly serve as a model for the rest of the universe to follow. I hope you won’t let grief consyou!" Though Shenxi Xingtian appeared like he was trying to console Meng Ying, he was actually adding oil to the fire.
"You're right. She sacrificed herself to save me. I’ll definitely avenge her choice without looking away."

"You’re correct. I’ll be the one to bear the pain and hurt," Meng Ying laughed while tears flowed down his face. He clenched his fists tight and slammed the table all of a sudden before he stood up. "It's beginning!"
"What is?"
"The eight million astral gods of my kind have begun assembling. They’re getting ready to go through the Xenoworld and emerge in the inner core of the Sun!"
"Eight million?!" That was far more than they had previously discussed! Not to mention, divine wonderians counted a couple as one person, so that actually meant sixteen million men and women would be joining the fight! The Sun and the Infinitum Bodhimanda only had six million astral gods, but with most of them being beastmasters, that also totaled up to stwenty million fighters.
As far as measuring combat power was concerned, a wonderian couple and their wonders were roughly as powerful as a beastmaster and their lifebound beasts. As such, it would be better to count the sixteen million divine wonderians as having the might of eight million. Even so, mobilizing a force of such a large number of astral gods was hardly common.
Shenxi Xingtian could feel the rage and agony behind Meng Ying's decision. The wonderian had been driven mad by the desire to obtain Tian Jiu and was betting all his astral gods on it! With Myriadpath Valley and Intrepidus not sending a large army, and the million remaining ebon astral gods defending Ebonopolis and unable to leave it, the only army on their side would be the wonderians'.
"Eight million! Your rage will be felt across the Sun! They won’t anticipate you coming through their core from the Xenoworld! They’ll no doubt perish!" Shenxi Xingtian excitedly said.
"You can start preparing as well," Meng Ying said, standing up.
"What do you mean?"
"The stareye in Skydhas begun shining—our allies will soon arrive! According to Li Fan's leaks, if we don't include Mister Taihe, Intrepidus alone will be sending five foundationeers. Coupled with the two of us, that's eight foundationeers. It's enough to exterminate the Sun and
kill Yi Daiyan!""Five?" The fact that the godshades could spare so many foundationeers was terrifying. Even though they also only inhabited a sixth-class nova source world like Ebonia, Shenxi Xingtian couldn't hope to measure up to that. Even so, he was excited and filled with hope, just like Meng Ying.
"Once our astral gods launch an assault on the Sun, we'll watch Yi Daiyan's movements. If she doesn't help the Sun, you shouldn’t take any action. If she decides to go alone, you should stay put as well. But once she brings astral gods and ships to reinforce the Sun, immediately send beast waves around the entire world. At the stime, use the Ebonfiend and bloodline wisteria to devastate the regal clans!" Meng Ying said. Even if they didn't take all of them out, the casualties would crush the morale of the astral gods who were sent out to fight.
"Don't worry, this is an opportunity for my final gamble. I have no way to back off any longer! If I lose, it’ll be my doom. But if I win, I’ll shed my humiliation and rise once more. I have no other choice but to fight with my life."
"Good." Meng Ying looked at him deeply. "Brother."

The moment they said that, a transmission stone flashed. Shenxi Xingtian took it out and saw Shenxi Tianxi.
"Dad! The two infinitum-class ships of the Sun are here! They're attacking the wildbeast wall with three million other ships! Once they break through, our losses will be huge!" he said in a panic.
"They're here, eh?" Shenxi Xingtian's eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Dad, should we open up the wildbeast wall? If we do, we'll expose Ebonopolis. We won't last long!" There was no way that an ether-class defensive formation could last against two infinitum-class ships and three million others.
"No. Don't scatter the wildbeast wall." No matter what, Shenxi Xingtian had to defend his final stronghold. Otherwise the ebons would have no place to call home, even if they survived to rule Ebonia. That meant that the wildbeast waves would have to be sacrificed.
He turned to Meng Ying and said, "Brother, please hurry up and force those two ships to turn back. If we lose too many wildbeasts, our options will be limited. If we can't threaten Yi Daiyan's army, everything will have been for naught."
"Fine." Meng Ying gave Shenxi Xingtian one last look before entering a Xenoworld gate. "Wait for my good news."
Shenxi Xingtian was pumped. The conflict had begun with the ebons this taround. "I’ve fallen as far as I can. I can't lose anymore. I don't want to! Yi Daiyan, Lin Xiaodao, Lin Feng... just you watch!"
