"You all protect while I want to destroy this place."
Destroying the spatial node cannot stop the Nightmare invasion, but it can buy so ti. Moreover, as a native existence of the Spirit Plane, the true form descending to the material plane itself requires a cost.
In a short period, the Nightmare Army will not appear in Nora.
...
Land of Darkness.
Pazuzu listened to the intelligence from Nora, and his expression turned serious.
"Is the Nightmare World going to participate too?"
The Shadow Demon Queen laughed and said:
"It’s a good thing, how about sending the [Emperor of Slumber] to visit the Nightmare World and see if we can pull those Nightmare Monarchs into our camp."
The Emperor of Slumber is the lord of the 401st layer of the Abyss, and also a subordinate of Eternal Sleep, its true form is a level 10 middle-stage Sleep Demon, involved in the Blood Battle of the second full-scale invasion war. As a Sleep Demon, it can freely traverse the Nightmare World.
"Let’s wait for now;
we’re just going through the motions. We’re currently in a situation where we’ve been worn out and need a rest, so we’ll let Nora be for the Nightmare World for now."
Pazuzu laughed darkly.
"What if Nora is taken down? We’ve paid so much cost;
we can’t let the Nightmare World benefit." The Shadow Demon Queen frowned.
Pazuzu: "You’re overthinking, Nora is not so easily taken down. After three failures, I’ve suddenly realized, it’s not that we aren’t doing well enough... but rather Nora has often perford exceptionally because it has heavenly help, which we lack."
The Shadow Demon Queen realized it.
"I see, that makes sense, but it’s also more troubling. Although the Land of Darkness couldn’t handle us from the Abyss, if it supports Nora, it invisibly adds a lot of resistance to us."
"So let’s let the Nightmare World co in and stir the waters, turning the entire Multidinsional Plane into a chaotic pot, isn’t it beautiful?"
...
Dark Temple.
The forms of four Ancients appeared, after the Void Emperor left, the siblings, The End Dragon Bird and Red Crow, also successively departed. The four remaining either can’t leave, or their minds are made up. No matter what, the impending invasion of Nora by the Nightmare is good news for them, the long-silent Dark Sun Sovereign spoke:
"I’ve long said that Nora’s rise will inevitably disrupt the existing patterns, we just need to watch from the sidelines, and if there’s an opportunity, make a move to get a share;
no opportunity, remain silent, protect oneself. Two giants entering simultaneously, Nora is in trouble."
...
Astral World.
Arrogant Sun Plateau, behind the Gate of Radiance.
On the warm throne surrounded by Holy Light, Ramon’s divine eyes gazed forward.
A goddess draped in a pure white holy robe, with a gentle expression, approached, carrying a longsword forged from the glow of dawn, lowering her noble head.
"Father God, Mother of Earth is visiting."
"Rise."
This goddess is the [Dawn Goddess], Ramon’s daughter, who commands the [Dawn] Authority and is a variant of [Light].
In the Ancient Era, she was an interdiate divine power user, and now her strength is close to reaching the threshold of mighty divine power;
she is Ramon’s most important subordinate god and right hand. Her title [Master of Dawn] also stems from this goddess. Compared to this elder sister, [Dusk Sun GodArt] is much too immature.
Before long, a woman in a simple garnt, with a compassionate face, jade face, and bare feet, descended, step by step with budding lotus.
Dawn Goddess said: "Greetings, Mother Goddess."
The woman in the flax robe nodded slightly, looked towards Amon and said:
"Did you see? The Snake of the End has left the Nightmare World and arrived in Nora, now is a great ti to solve the blasphers!"
"I saw."
"We can negotiate with Edmund. Let him hand over the Snake of the End."
"Wait."
"Why wait, that blaspher killed our painstakingly nurtured [Twin Holy Sons] and devoured tens of billions of followers, you haven’t forgotten, have you?"
"Naturally not, the timing is not right."
"Are you afraid of Edmund?"
"I’m just prioritizing the big picture. The Dark Insects disaster is not yet over, the Ancestor God needs us..."
Moreover, Edmund is indeed strong. The Earth Demon Lord’s power was not inferior to this existence commanding the most [Earth] Authority, yet was still extinguished by Edmund.
Heavenly Father does not want to be the obvious target at this crucial mont.
Of course, he does indeed hate the Snake of the End!
The Twin Holy Sons were the offspring created by him and the Holy Mother, consuming countless divine powers over an Ancient Age, the resources invested in them were imasurable, it was the key for him and the Holy Mother to try to ascend to a higher level.
"Alright, I understand."
The Holy Mother’s voice was low, and she left sowhat sorrowfully.
Unlike Ramon, this mighty deity not only has the natural innate divine authority of [Earth], but also a acquired authority nad [Motherhood].
This made the deity, who naturally lacks emotions, imrsed daily in the pain of losing her children;
yet if she were to relinquish the [Motherhood] authority, she is unwilling.
This authority was obtained by painstakingly consuming an interdiate divine power user [God of Love and Compassionate Mother]. Nowadays, the natural innate authorities within the star realm are scarce and increasingly insufficient. Such acquired authorities are crucial.
Therefore, to find peace of mind, there is only one plan:
Kill the Snake of the End and turn it into her divine servant, making it her godson, thus satisfying the radiance of motherhood that overflows from her!
But the coldness of the children’s father left this mother disheartened. She decided to descend into incarnation personally and negotiate with Edmund, using the dominance of the star realm as a bargaining chip.
Currently, Nora is simultaneously facing wars from the Abyss and the Nightmare;
she refuses to believe that Edmund would truly go against the star realm for the sake of a re Mythical Creature!
These are three giants!
...
Ti flies, three more years have passed.
Nora Calendar Year 1600.
Nightmare Command Center.
Levi, Daydrear, Blue Dream Star Lord, and other high-level mbers are discussing the next troop deploynt matters, and legendary wizards are worried that his Black Dragon Territory might suffer retaliation from a Nightmare Lord and lose the land in the Nightmare World.
Levi expresses no concern.
A millennium of operation, the Ancient Dragon Continent and Dreamland Steeple have already hoarded a massive amount of Nightmare Creature materials, enough for usage over the next several hundred years.
Also, he can enter the once Dark Side of the Universe [Ashen World] as a lord. By then, so many fragnts, so many Nightmare Creatures available for picking, no matter how powerful the Nightmare Monarchs are, they can’t control everything.
In summary, the worst-case scenario would be losing the Black Dragon Territory.
He is already prepared ntally.
His only concern is about the Nightmare Creatures elders in his territory, such as the Nine Infant, Butcher, Tyrant of Horror and the like. Their true forms are all in the Nightmare World, and if they die, then it’s really over.
Daydrear suggests Levi comnce from the [Nine Realms of Descent], allowing Levi to be independent from the Nightmare World, creating a temporary dream space.
In here, although Nightmare Creatures can’t grow normally, letting their true form descend and preserve strength is no problem, waiting until later when plans can be made once strength is secured.
As for now, if concerned for the safety of subordinates, they can temporarily stuff them into Daydrear’s Demiplane [Fantasy Dream].
While everyone discusses, Edmund suddenly looks up at the sky, his figure dissipating.
From limitless heights, the vast starlight condenses into a ladder to Heaven, surging divine power sweeps forth, a figure steps forward adorned with a Star Gauze Long Dress, one step at a ti. Her compassionate face, smiling countenance, stands barefoot with elegance full of maternal radiance.
Edmund stands with hands behind his back, his red robe fluttering in the wind, smiling and saying:
"What wind brought the Holy Mother here."
