Chapter 1615: War Summary!

Chapter 1615: War Summary!

At the same time.

In the Phantom Desert region.

Four figures radiating terrifying willpower were relentlessly pursuing a single figure.

That figure was none other than the Will of Cycles!

At this moment, His expression remained calm. Though being hunted by four immortals of the Supreme Will, He did not show the slightest panic. In fact, He even found the time to turn around and launch a counterattack against the pursuers behind Him.

Watching them rage with fury yet unable to catch up, a smile slowly formed on His face.

He lowered His head and gently stroked the willful sacred artifact upon His body, murmuring with a touch of nostalgia:

"Thankfully, I borrowed these three defensive will artifacts from my younger brother."

"Otherwise, I would never have been able to remain so composed and lure the enemies into retreat."

Previously, the will artifacts under His control were almost entirely offensive in nature.

This granted Him a tremendous suppressive advantage when confronting enemies weaker than Himself.

Yet when facing foes vastly superior in strength, the absence of defensive will artifacts became glaringly apparent.

After all, no matter how potent the offensive will artifacts might be, if the enemy could simply rely on their raw power to ignore them entirely, then those artifacts were no different than if He had none at all.

In contrast, defensive will artifacts provided crucial room for self-preservation and retreat—essential buffers when the odds were stacked against Him.

Thinking of these will artifacts, the cyclical will recalled Zhou Zhan.

"I wonder how my younger brother, who has created so many miracles, is faring on the other side?"

A look of concern flickered across the cyclical will's face.

When first learning that his younger brother had set his sights on three lower-tier Supreme Will Realm masters, He had strongly opposed it.

After all, despite Zhou Zhan's proven record of defeating two Supreme Will Realm masters individually, there was a fundamental difference between a one-on-one confrontation and facing three such foes.

Even the Martial Emperor, when confronted with the siege of three lower-tier supreme will realm experts, would never dare to resist head-on and could only find a way to flee.

To say nothing of slaying them.

A third-order supreme deity killing three lower-tier supreme will realm powerhouses? Powerhouses who furthermore carried sacred will artifacts?

It sounded utterly like a fantasy tale.

Were it not for the Reincarnation Will's absolute faith in his worthy brother, how could he ever have agreed to let him execute such a crazy plan?

Delay.

Delay as long as possible.

As long as I hold out long enough, even if my brother cannot slay those three supreme will realm experts over there, he will at least have more time to escape.

A look of determination flared in the eyes of the Reincarnation Will.

With the methods at his disposal, if he wished to buy time, he would have to brave considerable risks.

Yet, to ensure his noble younger brother could escape unharmed, He was willing to do such a thing.

For He was not merely his noble younger brother—he had also seen, in that one figure, a flicker of hope for the end of the war between the Endless and the Hollow.

Just as He was about to act—

a sudden roar erupted behind Him, and then, to His astonishment, the four transcendent willful beings pursuing Him ceased their chase entirely.

"What is going on?"

His eyes flickered with confusion.

At that moment,

His personal terminal chimed.

The Cyclic Will recognized the signal as Zhou Zhan’s and immediately connected. Then, a calm voice came through.

"Brother."

"On my end, the three supreme gods, including the Lord of the Soul Eaters, have already been dealt with."

"Be careful on your side. I fear that in their desperate rage, they might recklessly attempt to take your life."

Upon hearing this, the Will of Samsara was instantly struck dumb.

He instinctively looked toward the four departing supreme-will realm powerhouses, then suddenly burst into a roaring laughter.

He had originally thought his sworn brother would be fortunate enough just to preserve his own life.

Never in his wildest dreams did he expect his sworn brother to actually slay three supreme-will realm powerhouses in a three-on-one battle.

Even if they were merely of the lower supreme-will realm, it was still enough to send shockwaves through the myriad heavens and realms.

After his laughter subsided, he began to pursue the four supreme-will realm powerhouses while simultaneously sending back a message: "The four supreme-will realm powerhouses of the Delusion Clan on my end already know about your slaughter of their kin."

"They are currently rushing over in a furious frenzy. I will do my best to delay them, so you must be careful on your end!"

The Will of Samsara exhorted anxiously.

"Rest assured, brother."

"I know my limits."

Zhou Zhan smiled.

Naturally, He would proceed with caution.

After all, those were two supreme paragons of the High Supreme Will Realm, one of the Mid Supreme Will Realm, and one of the Low Supreme Will Realm.

Facing a lineup like that, Zhou Zhan possessed at most the ability to protect himself, completely lacking the means to confront them head-on, let alone slay them.

"Brother."

"Come tomorrow, what do you say we resolve the matter of these four supreme paragons of the Supreme Will Realm together?"

Zhou Zhan suddenly suggested.

"Tomorrow?"

The Cyclic Will stiffened, not quite understanding why it was specifically mentioned as tomorrow.

Could there be something special about tomorrow?

Suddenly, a thought struck him, his face lighting up with excitement, "Could it be that you're ascending to a fourth-tier Supreme God tomorrow?"

Already a third-tier Supreme God—such power.

A fourth-tier Supreme God would surely elevate my younger brother's strength to a new level.

Zhou Zhan shook his head, then smiled and explained:

"No."

"But I should be ascending to the Supreme Will level tomorrow."

"Not in overall power, but specifically in the level of my will. My divine realm will remain a third-tier Supreme God."

Zhou Zhan spoke.

His level of will had long been awaiting the transcendence of will-to-divinity.

Normally, even a common deity might remain stuck at this stage for thousands, ten thousand, or even hundreds of thousands of years—this would be entirely normal. After all, ascending from late stage of will-to-divinity to the Supreme Will Realm is a vast leap in rank. Even if one remains stagnant for eternity, it is not uncommon.

Yet Zhou Zhan possessed not just one, but multiple inheritances of the Supreme Will Realm—some even reaching the Will Transcendence Realm, and even fragmented inheritances of the Eternal Immortality Realm.

With these numerous master inheritances supporting him, Zhou Zhan now felt he could effortlessly surpass the bottleneck of ascending to the Supreme Will Realm, allowing his willpower to transcend into the Supreme Will Realm.

This is the true advantage of possessing so many top-tier inheritances!

As for his slow progress in the realm of laws, Zhou Zhan could do nothing. Each individual’s path through the laws is entirely unique, tailored to their own nature. Other inheritances could only serve as references—never able to be fully replicated onto himself.

Zhou Zhou could only advance step by step, painstakingly forging his own path of law.

Yet even so,

Zhou Zhan could feel, within just three days, he would ascend to the rank of Four-Stage Supreme God.

Once he reached the fullness of the Four-Stage Supreme God, he would be ready to begin comprehending the Art of Will, and truly rise to the realm of Supreme Will!

"With the attainment of the Supreme Will realm, the Will Sacred Weapons I possess will unleash their full power, becoming easier to command, and my various Law Techniques will burst forth with even greater strength."

"Then, with the upper-tier Will Sacred Weapons, I will have a considerable chance even against a Supreme Will being of the upper tier."

Zhou Zhan thought to himself.

Meanwhile,

The Cycle of Will, upon seeing Zhou Zhan's message, was so excited it could hardly contain itself.

He never expected his younger brother to rise from the post of Late Phase of Will-Embodiment to the Lower Tier of Supreme Will—no, not merely to the rank of Four-Stage Supreme God, but to the realm of Supreme Will itself!

Though it was merely an elevation in the realm of will, the level of will attained at the Supreme Will Realm was enough to drastically enhance Zhou Zhan's power.

Simply wielding the full might of a more potent Will Artifact could amplify Zhou Zhan's strength by three to four times—or even more.

When his younger brother had not yet ascended to the Supreme Will Realm, Zhou Zhan had already been able to wield the power of a late-stage Will Transcendence to forcibly command a Will Artifact and defeat the Martial Emperor.

Now, with the enemy's will realm about to ascend to the lower tier of the Supreme Will Realm, wouldn't that mean he would be capable of directly confronting a higher-tier Supreme Will Realm master?

The Cycle Will believed this possibility was very real.

"If my younger brother truly ascends to the lower tier of the Supreme Will Realm, and if we unite our wills, perhaps we could indeed eliminate all four remaining Supreme Will Realm masters before the support of the Supreme Will arrives!"

Though he himself was only a lower-tier Supreme Will Realm master, wielding the authority over the Cycle of Time, he could stand face-to-face against even a higher-tier Supreme Will Realm master—possessing not only the ability to confront them, but even a chance to defeat them outright.

With Zhou Zhan joining forces, eliminating the remaining four Supreme Will Realm masters would not be impossible at all.

Thinking this through,

The cyclical will stirred within, its heart pulsing with awareness.

After a moment of contemplation, it sent a message:

"Good."

"Once you ascend to the lower realm of Supreme Will, notify me."

"With our combined strength, we shall ensure these foreign intruders who have seized the Yellow Afterlife Domain are forever trapped here!"

Zhou Zhan saw this and a smile bloomed upon his face.

He then discussed the details with the cyclical will before severing the connection.

As he led his army away from the Black State Swamp, he retrieved the three corpses of Supreme Will beings, selecting and extracting their spoils.

Soon,

an overwhelming abundance of loot appeared within his first treasure vault.

Zhou Zhan, though he claimed to have made preparations, could not help but feel a sharp intake of breath upon seeing so many spoils before him.

Good heavens!

No wonder these were the combined treasures of three Supreme Will Beings!

The total value of all these spoils approached that of every single treasure within his first vault—equal, almost.

He glanced through them briefly, then extracted the Will Sacred Artifacts.

Together, the three Supreme Will Beings had a total of twelve such artifacts.

All were lower-tier Will Sacred Artifacts, yet Zhou Zhan could not help but be profoundly astonished.

Among the Supreme Will Beings of his highest cosmos, it was already rare for even one out of three to possess a Will Sacred Artifact.

After all, Will Sacred Artifacts were exceedingly scarce within the highest cosmos.

Unless they ventured beyond the highest cosmos into the Ultimate Void Cosmos in search of opportunity, most Supreme Will Beings still relied on the highest-tier relics as their weapons and equipment.

And yet, this deluded clan proved quite fortunate.

He had encountered only four beings of Supreme Will,

and already possessed over twenty Will Sacred Artifacts.

No wonder it is a rich and bountiful world of delusion.

...

Nightfall.

The Sun-Brilliant Capital.

Within the Palace of Cycles.

Zhou Zhan was staring at the war summary report before him.

Through the joint efforts of five battlefronts—the Supreme Continent Battlefield, the Ultimate Void Cosmic Battlefield, the Tianjun Corpse Realm Battlefield, the Crimson Cosmic Battlefield, and the Yellow Springs Domain—the statistics revealed:

On the front of infiltration.

Today, Zhou Zhou's various avatars successfully infiltrated using the two infiltration techniques—"Mofu Wangchen" from "Rate of Soil" and "Son of Destiny"—successfully turning over 4 Yao 3498 Jing soldiers, 323 Billion 2931 million 2387 lower-tier divine spirits, 239 Billion 2387 million 7816 mid-tier divine spirits, 123 Billion 2391 million 2389 upper-tier divine spirits, 71 Billion 1923 million 2378 true gods, 710,000 2398 primary gods, 103 Supreme Gods, and 18 near Supreme Will-level entities.

Additionally, the lords of the Star Alliance also infiltrated and turned over 2938 Jing soldiers, 481 Billion 2398 million divine spirits, over 22 million true gods, and 8121 primary gods!

Finally, regarding the promotion of divine beings.

Today, a total of 123 million 2313 billion 3498 ten-thousands 1287 legendary upper-tier soldiers have been promoted to lower-tier deities!

Additionally, 112 billion 1328 ten-thousands 3489 upper-tier deities have ascended to junior true deities!

Furthermore, 123,491 human realm supreme true deities and 803,432 extrahuman realm supreme true deities have sensed the limits of their master deity status and have applied to enter the Palace of Cycles for secluded cultivation, in an attempt to transcend the master deity realm!

Moreover, 50 master-tier deities have also sensed their promotion bottlenecks and, today, have decided to enter the Palace of Cycles to prepare for ascension to the first-tier Supreme Deity!

Originally, Zhou Zhou's forces consisted of 65 yao 559 jing 2711 zhi 984 billion 2987 ten-thousands 8167 soldiers, 1 zhi 963 billion 275 million 9999 deities, 257 billion 3418 million 3552 true deities, 820,285 master deities, 372 Supreme Deities, and 16 near-omnipotent will-level beings!

Now, with the newly recruited deity warriors who have been persuaded, and five Supreme Deities and fifteen Master Deities recruited from the Chaos Secret Realm, the strength under Zhou Zhou's command has reached 69 yao 6995 jing 3421 zhi 1928 billion 2387 ten-thousands 2387 soldiers, 124 zhi 3967 billion 1231 million 2391 deities, 440 billion 8869 million 9419 true deities, 154 million 804 master deities, 475 Supreme Deities, and 34 near-omnipotent will-level beings!

After reviewing the figures, Zhou Zhou nodded with deep satisfaction.
