Chapter 3725 - Fourth Bracket: The Slave Race
The divine channel in the Middlekin Star Ruin looked like a round, black mirror. Its top surface shone with a cold light while on the bottom side was an entire world. The world seemed to constantly shift. Sometimes, hundred- to thousand-meter-high faces would appear on its surface, all wearing expressions of agony or pain. The mirror's reflections in the air also made the space above it rather hazy and hard to see through.
At the top of the divine channel was the main storage facility of the Middlekin Star Ruin, where countless middlekin stars were stashed, brightly shining like the divine channel below it. Between them was a gigantic divine astralship shaped like a human head with three faces in different directions. Each face had wide-open eyes that brightly glowed, making them somewhat resemble the Divine Sun Palace. However, the ship's mass was much, much larger; the three faces were as large as stars themselves and their angry expressions made for quite an intimidating sight.
It was none other than the Cosmic God Palace. It was a ship that specialized in transporting and storing cosmic god caeli throughout the Upper Star Ruin. It was considered a privilege when it stopped at a certain location. Locals would always flock to the palace to cultivate and raise their bloodline talent. Thanks to the ship, geniuses from places like the Middlekin Star Ruins were able to benefit from interfacing with galaxy-class orders.
The ship rotated on the spot, causing the hair on the gigantic heads to flutter around it. Within the Middlekin Star Ruin, countless members of the Three Great Cults flew in with different astralships, slowly entering the Cosmic God Palace.
For an uneventful place like the Middlekin Star Ruin, the most significant event to ever take place was the descent of the Cosmic God Palace. Most members of the cults would definitely take part in the event. The Middlekin Star Ruin was mainly a location for the production of middlekin stars, and thus generated an incredibly pure heavenly essence that had nourished generations of members of the Three Great Cults.
There were around five million of them in total, similar to the number of slaves they kept. However, most of them were situated on various astral continents near the ruin and didn't do any mining. Instead, the cult members were managers and transporters while the slaves did all the undesirable work.
The smaller ships around the palace stopped and their passengers stepped out. They were all from peak factions in the Upper Star Ruin. Even though many of them weren't from the Eightpart Pantheons, their bloodlines and statuses were far from humble. More than five million of them separated into three groups and took their place in the seating areas around the Cosmic God Palace, which were made of divine celestial patterns that had solidified into astral rocks. It was a truly luxurious thing to have.
Among them were more than a hundred thousand overflower cultivators from the Three Great Cults. From that number alone, one could tell that it was incredible that the dragonoids had managed to produce more than ten thousand overflowers, despite lacking resources and being oppressed. Claims of their subpar talent were patently false, though the rest of the people in the Upper Star Ruin would scarcely be able to imagine it.
"How many galaxy-class orders are there in the Cosmic God Palace this time, do you think?" The crowd had already begun excitedly talking about the whole event, even though it hadn't begun yet. Their excitement wasn't limited to the galaxy-class orders, either; even the normal ones were left behind by powerful cosmic gods that were around thousands of meters tall.
"I heard there’s three streams!"
