"What is this? An array?" Tao Ping was stunned and asked in confusion, looking at the strange layout in the starry sky.
"The simplified version of the 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Da Zhen' can't hold out for long with just starships, but it should be enough to hold out until we can teleport away!" Xu Changqing said quickly, and then continued to issue various commands. The great demons who controlled the unmanned starships moved the positions of the starships and their firepower coverage according to his instructions, blocking the dark creatures from getting closer.
"Amazing! I'll have to find Ye Chen sometime and go to the Scripture Pavilion to take a good look at these books!" Tao Ping exclaimed. They already possessed endless lifespans, and the one thing they had no shortage of was time. Reading more books would always be beneficial for them.
However, compared to the gradually stabilizing situation on the Primordial Star, other races are becoming increasingly chaotic, especially those races that cannot use spatial teleportation to leave. They are unwilling to see others leave safely, because the more people there are, the greater their chance of survival.
To this end, they even began to attack the starships of some less powerful races, trying to seize their starships in order to ensure the safety of their own people.
This action caused the defenses held by these races to collapse instantly, and a large number of dark creatures rushed into the core area, making the battle, which could have lasted longer, precarious once again.
"We can't control them anymore. The Dark God is less than five minutes away from us, and there's no time to transfer them to our starship!" Zhao Wu said, shaking his head helplessly as he looked at the chaotic communication channels.
Their location was in the core area of the entire fleet, and from the beginning they had not relied on anyone else. Therefore, even if the outer perimeter was breached, the dark creatures would not be able to reach their position in a short period of time.
“But these are lives after all! It’s too cruel to let them perish here like this, and this chaotic situation will only lead to greater casualties!” Zixuan shook her head and took over the broadcast channel to send messages to people of other races.
"Everyone, please be quiet. I know that many of your starships may not have the ability to travel through space, and there's nothing I can do about that. But I don't want to just watch you all stay here forever. So, we will gradually relinquish control of the unmanned starships on the outer perimeter. You can transfer your people to these unmanned starships and try to activate the ability to travel through space!"
"All I can do here is wish you all the best!"
Zi Xuan's words immediately brought joy to everyone's faces. Everyone had witnessed the strength of the starships on the Primordial Star. Not to mention their firepower, their ability to travel through space was unmatched by anyone else. Everyone rushed towards these starships.
"Thank you, boss! Thank you, bosses!" The people of these races expressed their gratitude one after another. Knowing that they had the opportunity to leave, no one would want to stay and fight to the death with the dark creatures. Everyone wanted to return to their territory alive.
"There's not much time left. Will they be able to leave?" Qing'er asked with a worried expression. The Dark God is only three minutes away. In such a short time, those people might not even be able to board the starship. Not to mention, once they leave, these starships will be unmanned and might not even survive the attack of the dark creatures.
"At least this is a glimmer of hope; at least some more people can survive!" Zi Xuan sighed, then looked at Tao Ping beside her. "Unlock the permissions for these starships. Whoever gets in can seize control of the starships!"
"Alright! I can only wish them good luck!" Tao Ping nodded and immediately granted these starships access.
Meanwhile, the establishment of their spatial passage was nearing completion. With a flash of white light, a large number of starships disappeared from everyone's sight.
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked, especially the starships of races like the Botian Clan and the Xinghai Clan. This speed was truly unexpected. Their starships had only constructed two-thirds of the spatial passage at the fastest, and it would still take them quite a while to leave.
"Faster! Faster!" the chieftains of the various races roared angrily, wishing they could sprout two more pairs of wings and fly away in a flash.
At this moment, Ye Chen, who was far away on the Primordial Star, finally received the message from here. Upon learning that they had encountered dark creatures, he immediately awakened the sleeping Zhulong and ordered it to rush to their aid.
As long as he doesn't face the Dark God head-on, he's confident that he can escape using the capabilities of the Primordial Starship. However, it's hard to say how much fighting power he'll have left after escaping.
"I hope everything is alright!" Ye Chen prayed in his heart.
In the distant starry sky, Ye Zhen and the others finally emerged from the space travel. Immediately, a large number of dark creatures rushed up from all around. The prepared group immediately mobilized their firepower to bombard the surrounding area, keeping all the dark creatures at bay.
"Locate the current coordinates, send a message to the Primordial Star, and confirm the return direction and the location of the Dark God!" Ye Zhen ignored the dark creatures around her and immediately directed the numerous great demons to gather information about the surrounding area.
The starship's space travel distance is limited, and it is impossible to return directly to the Primordial Star. It will need to make multiple space travels, so it is still within the range of the dark creatures.
Fortunately, after being probed, they discovered that they had escaped the detection range of the dark god, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be careless. The consciousness of the dark god is very vast, even far exceeding our detectors. Moreover, there are quite a few dark creatures around us. We must remain vigilant and return as soon as possible!" Zixuan reminded them. Everyone was immediately shocked and dared not delay any longer. After confirming the direction, they began to clear the way for their return journey.
Unfortunately, there are not many starships left, and most of them are loaded with Great Demons and Elemental Spirits. With insufficient firepower, they can no longer advance as quickly as before. They can only maintain a relatively steady speed to give the Great Demons time to fight in space and use their power to resist the dark creatures around them.
Xu Changqing and the others were quite helpless about this. They couldn't very well release the elemental spirits to fight, could they? If they really angered these guys, they would start fighting right there in this starry sky, and then these guys would truly become disposable expendables.
After burning the heavens and boiling the seas, it was devoured by endless dark creatures, truly a fleeting meteor, a brief moment of glory!
