The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 1043: Wipe Out

Prince Martis wondered what Aldrian was doing. Aldrian just closed his eyes for a moment before he opened them again and looked toward the horizon. He did not say anything.

The prince also did not ask anything as he wanted to see what Aldrian wanted to do.

More than ten seconds passed. He only saw Aldrian looking into the distance, still silent. Twenty seconds passed, still nothing. However, the moment it reached twenty-five seconds, he sensed something coming down from the sky. Many people also could sense it.

Prince Martis and many others instinctively lifted their heads to look at what it was, and the moment they saw it, they froze.

The prince’s heart shook, his eyes trembling, as he saw a giant meteorite fall from the sky at incredible speed and split the clouds toward the horizon.

A few seconds later,

BOOOMM!

The meteorite impacted the land, and the first thing they saw was thick, high-rising dust and a wave of flame that covered a big part of the horizon. It was followed by a great earthquake that could be felt across a vast region, and even at this moment, the entire Gardum Kingdom could feel the earthquake.

It caused panic among the citizens of the kingdom. The earthquake was quite strong and made some buildings in parts of the kingdom crack and threaten to collapse. The people rushed to look for cover to protect themselves in case the buildings collapsed.

In the capital city of the Gardum Kingdom, Hervian City, the earthquake was strong enough to make a person unable to stand properly.

Inside the royal palace, many people fell into panic as they tried to grab something to steady themselves.

In the throne hall, a middle-aged man with blonde hair and peak pseudo immortal stage cultivation stood up and looked solemn. His regal attire already showed who he was as the true ruler of the Gardum Kingdom, the king of this kingdom, Darius Veradin Gardum.

He spread his senses to the maximum, even covering the entire capital, but he did not sense any disturbance. However, he knew that this earthquake was not normal, as the capital city had never been hit by an earthquake.

’What happened?’ he thought seriously.

At Aldrian’s place, the camp was already in chaos because they felt the earthquake the strongest. Many tents had already collapsed and most people could not stand properly. The ones who could fly started to rise into the air, and if Aldrian had not shielded all of them from the shockwave that swept through them, the situation would have been far more chaotic.

The shockwave swept across an area of more than twenty-five thousand kilometers and almost collapsed every standing object. The shockwave itself also felt hot, as if it carried invisible flames within it.

After more than a minute of pure chaos, the trembling stopped and the people could start standing again. The terrifying rumbling sound could still be heard on the horizon as they looked at the sight they would never forget.

The dust created from the impact had already reached the upper atmosphere and was blocking the sunlight. The clouds in the vast region had already been swept away by the shockwave, making the sky entirely clear of clouds. However, because the sunlight was blocked by the thick dust from the impact, the view became quite dim.

Even so, the entire horizon was lit in a red hue as if a huge fire had broken out across a vast area in a place they could not see. The sight was truly like the end of the world.

Those who saw this scene were deeply shaken, their eyes filled with fear.

What the fuck just happened?

Why did a massive meteorite suddenly hit the land when nothing like this had happened for such a long time?

Prince Martis, who was looking at the aftermath, also showed shock and fear. Sweat had already rolled down from his forehead.

Was this what Aldrian wanted to show him?

Was this his technique? Was this his power?

Although compared to the black hole he saw in Aldrian’s illusion the scale was much smaller, this was already beyond any power he had ever seen from cultivators in this world.

This was a kind of power outside of his understanding.

How could someone just make a meteorite fall from the sky?

The prince’s gaze then turned to Aldrian, who was looking at the horizon with a calm expression. Prince Martis’ eyes showed fear and at the same time solemnity. Even after making the giant meteorite fall, Aldrian’s face did not show any sign of disturbance such as energy depletion.

His body also did not show any sign of weakness, as if what he had just done was something extremely easy.

’What a monster,’ he thought.

"Would you like to come with me to take a closer look, Your Highness? I want to see the result of the impact," Aldrian suddenly said, which made the prince stunned.

Without waiting for an answer, Aldrian started flying toward the horizon.

As the people were still looking at the aftermath of the impact, they saw Aldrian flying away. Prince Martis, who seemed hesitant for a moment, decided to follow him.

"Your Highness!"

Many royal guards and troops also started to follow them as they saw the prince flying after Aldrian. They kept flying for a few seconds until they finally arrived at the impact site, which made their eyes tremble at the sight before them.

A giant crater with a diameter of five hundred kilometers and seven kilometers deep had already been created, with flames engulfing a big part of the desert. The scorching heat stung their skin and threatened to burn them even though they were not directly touching the flames.

They could not see any remnants of the meteorite, which they thought must have been entirely destroyed after the impact.

The truth was that the meteorite had already completely disappeared because it was entirely created through energy manifestation. It disappeared a few moments after the impact.

If they knew about it, they would be even more shocked, because to create something like that, the cultivator must have great control and a huge amount of energy. That did not even include what kind of laws or intricacies were involved to make it possible for a cultivator to create a giant meteorite and make it fall from the sky.

Did this meteorite come from the meteorite belt? Or somewhere else? These were the questions running through their minds.

All in all, this kind of thing was impossible to do in these people’s minds.

"Wait, isn’t this where the devils’ camp was located? The meteorite fell right on their base?" one of the troops who was following the prince said.

"Yes, this is the place. As one of the scouts who had been watching the devils’ base a few days ago, I can confirm it. This is without a doubt the devils’ base. The remnants of devil energy here are already an obvious sign," another troop said.

"Were the devils entirely obliterated? The base that had more than a hundred thousand devil troops, just gone like that?" another asked in an unbelieving tone.

Aldrian, who was observing the aftermath, nodded in satisfaction as he could sense that there were no survivors. He did not sense any remnants of space laws or other laws that would indicate some devils had managed to escape. Instead, he sensed the presence of death laws and remnants of devil energy from thousands of devils.

He could even sense two remnants of energy that seemed to belong to peak pseudo immortal stage devils.

He was satisfied with the result because he had made a direct hit with the meteorite attack. He had learned much from the war in the northern star cluster and perfected his meteorite strike.

To make sure those devils did not have time to defend themselves, he made the meteorite fall at incredible speed, propelling it further using gravity.

He made the edge of his domain in the upper atmosphere, which faced the target, exude intense gravity, while holding the meteorite in place with a spatial lock.

The moment he released the spatial lock, the meteorite would fall in the designed direction.

How could he pinpoint the exact location of the devils’ base?

It was his calculation based on the map he saw and the distance that had been described by Prince Martis. With his quick processing mind, he calculated the precise location where he could drop the meteorite.

Even if he had not directly hit the base, the impact alone was already enough to obliterate anything hundreds of kilometers away and destroy anything thousands of kilometers away.

If it were not for his domain’s protection, the prince’s camp would have been instantly swept away by the aftermath, and there would have been thousands of casualties. Even Immortal Transition Realm cultivators would have been gravely injured by it.

Prince Martis, who was observing the destruction, suddenly remembered something. Something he had not considered as a possibility.

’Wait, his name is Aldrian. The news about that mighty figure from the Ancient Blue Gate World mentioned a title, Aldrian the Great.’

The moment he reached this conclusion, his eyes widened.

Aldrian, who did not know what was in the prince’s mind at this moment, then looked at Prince Martis.

"How is it, Your Highness?" he asked.

The prince looked at Aldrian with a solemn expression.

"Sir Aldrian, my apologies if I suddenly ask this, but are you the one called Aldrian the Great from the Ancient Blue Gate World?"

Aldrian raised one of his eyebrows.

"You also heard that name here?"

The prince nodded, which made Aldrian look back at the impact site.

"That is what many people called me in my home world, so you do not need to think too much about it here."

Hearing the confirmation, the prince’s heart pounded and he wanted to shout in ecstasy.

He was standing in front of the rumored Aldrian the Great!
