These powerful forces are locked in fierce battles across the border region.

At this critical juncture when both universes should be bleeding each other dry and all forces should be suffering heavy losses, the wolf clan has not only not weakened, but has instead grown stronger.

Besides the fact that the Starry Universe Beast Council did not deliberately target the wolf clan, there was another more important reason: during the continuous expansion of the Fire Seed Alliance, a large number of wolf clans were discovered.

In the first one or two hundred years after the two universes merged, this situation was not obvious, and the incorporation of various races was basically even.

However, over time, the proportion of wolf populations began to increase rapidly, even skyrocketing.

Today, wolves make up half of the population.

In other words, during the expansion of the Fire Seed Alliance, five out of every ten tribes it incorporated were wolf tribes.

With the continuous influx of this new energy, the wolf clan naturally flourished.

At first, the other races in the Fire Seed Alliance didn't realize anything was wrong, and just thought the wolf clan was lucky.

But nowadays, it's impossible not to have suspicions.

However, things are alright within the Fireseed Alliance. With Melen keeping things in check, other races don't dare to cause trouble even though he's not here right now.

Xuanling and Youdi sensed something was amiss. After observing the situation for a while, they became quite certain that this was Mellen's doing.

They even guessed that this change must be related to Mellen's control of the world.

Although only some lower-class groups are currently affected, no one can guarantee how far the impact will evolve if left unchecked.

Sitting idly by and waiting for death has never been in the nature of Xuanling and Youdi. The unease rising in their hearts is the instinctive warning from their powerful spiritual senses.

Therefore, even with the great enemy of dragons still present, Xuanling and Youdi do not intend to let Melon continue.

Of course, Xuanling and Youdi would not directly turn against Mellen, but would instead look for a suitable opportunity, preferably one that would leave Mellen and the dragon both severely injured, so that they could reap the benefits.

Xuanling and Youdi did not intend to stop them before achieving their goal, after all, one of the three conditions they had agreed to for Mellen was that they would not interfere with the development of the Fire Seed Alliance.

Mellen was unaware of all this, but he had actually anticipated it. Everyone was pretending to be ignorant, it was nothing more than using and being used, and in the end it would just come down to who had the better methods, nothing more.

When the perspective is elevated to the level of the root and core, the cosmic will of the Beast Universe and the Starry Universe is still fiercely clashing like two blazing suns.

Beneath their radiance, Melen's will was both a ray of light and a constantly growing vine, spreading wantonly on the soil of the two universes and continuously strengthening itself.

From this higher-dimensional perspective, Murren began to grasp the fundamental structure of the two universes. He could see through countless spaces and observe the movements of all living beings in an instant.

Because Melen possesses the "Circular Principle" of Lesser Principle, he is also able to see into the past of all things and beings, and observe a part of their future.

Immersed in this observation, Murren felt as if a vast scroll was slowly unfolding before his eyes.

Heaven and earth encompass all things, and all living beings are caught in their web.

From the moment of birth, every individual will interact with other individuals, and the individual's future will extend into countless branching paths. These branching paths overlap and influence each other, forming a dense and impenetrable net that covers the sky.

Standing at the center of the net, with his feet planted on the four corners of the earth and his hands holding the universe, it seemed that he could influence the future of all living beings with just a few casual gestures.

He saw the snake-dog struggling to survive in the mountains and forests, capturing prey one by one, and escaping from the claws of its natural enemies time and time again. In the process, it honed its claws and teeth, enriched its wisdom, and became stronger and stronger.

He witnessed the transformation of the Scaled Demon Clan. The new generation of Scaled Demons was stronger and more aggressive. After ruling the entire clan, they began to set their sights on other clans in the sea, as they needed more slaves to work for them.

He witnessed the Silverhoof Clan multiply and thrive, establishing themselves on the plains and gradually giving rise to more unique humanoid individuals. Ultimately, they unified the plains and established a prosperous civilization there.

He witnessed the Wolfthorn Demon Tree's ascension. After devouring its own kind, the Wolfthorn Demon Tree left its original comfort zone and made the entire boundless forest its hunting ground, accumulating nutrients for its next stage of growth.

He witnessed the rise of the Rock Wolf Clan. As an elemental race, the Rock Spirits originally had very low worldly desires, but after transforming into the Rock Wolf Clan, their desire for conquest and expansion suddenly became strong. They began to breed a large number of new members and attack and conquer the surrounding areas.

he saw...

From this perspective, it seems that Mellen saw everything.

Mellen's fingers gently touched the net...

The snake-dog's inevitable death was changed...

The Scaled Demon Clan will not be wiped out for rashly provoking a powerful clan...

The Silverhoof Clan will not become eternal enemies with another mutated race, but rather eternal allies...

The Wolfthorn Demon Tree found the core of the boundless forest, devoured it, and successfully completed its next level of evolution...

The Rock Wolf Clan discovered a mineral beneficial to their tribe, which strengthened the entire clan and opened up an alternative path of evolution...

At this moment, every move Mellen makes can influence the operation of all living beings in the universe of beasts. At the same time, all wolf-like life forms are naturally connected with him, providing him with a trace of power.

These forces may seem insignificant individually, but when countless 'insignificant' forces come together, they form a vast ocean.

Nourished by the power of all living beings, Melen's will expanded rapidly, and he devoured more and more of the source power scattered from the two universes at an increasingly faster pace.

This finally alerted both universes.

However, by this point, although Melron was still weaker than the two universes, he had gained the power to injure them.

Even if Mellen were to burn himself out with all his might, he could only inflict minor damage on one of the universes, but that would be enough to make both universes instinctively wary.

After all, with the two universes locked in a fierce battle, any external force could trigger a chain reaction, like dominoes falling.

When that time comes, the outcome may be decided in a very short time, and there will be no chance of a comeback.

Given this premise, and considering that Mellen is ultimately too weak compared to the two universes, and that the will of the universe does not think like normal life, they temporarily left Mellen aside.

This balance is what Mellen desired and deliberately created.

This gives Mellen more time to develop.

While Mellen was balancing on the beam, Xuanling and Youdi were not idle either. After making many secret arrangements, they finally perfected their plan.

The border zone, a newly opened battlefield in time and space.

Cat and Eagle, leading a group of members of the Council of Beasts, are engaged in a fierce battle with three Ancestral God-level powerhouses.

The Ancestral God-level powerhouses on the Beast Council's side are all from the Fire Seed Alliance. Besides the two siblings from the Cat Clan, there is also a Lion Clan powerhouse.

Originally, it should have been the Eagle Clan that dealt with the Eagle, but unfortunately, the Eagle Clan and the other lower-level divine beast clans of the Fire Seed Alliance were all at odds. The two sides had cooperated before, but too much filth had arisen, so later it simply became a zero-sum game.

On the battlefield of time and space, although it was two against three, the two sides maintained a relatively even balance of power.

However, this situation is about to change.

Chapter 770 A Clumsy Fate

"Currently, the number of spacetime nodes in our area is 427... and the number of rule-based obstacles is 125..."

"Number of spacetime nodes occupied: 198, Spacetime deviation: 630, Number of rule obstacles occupied: 38, Spacetime deviation: 1316..."

"It is recommended to intensify the offensive and seize more time-space nodes and rule-based obstacles..."

After listening to their subordinates' report, Cat and Eagle fell silent. After all, they only had two Sovereign-level experts on their side, while the opposing side had three Sovereign-level powerhouses in charge.

Even though they wouldn't be at a disadvantage in a two-on-three fight, as had already been proven in their initial encounter, they were still one person less, which significantly reduced their agility and mobility.

Therefore, in the combat zone they were in charge of, the Starry Universe was at a disadvantage overall.

This put the cat and eagle in a dilemma. After all, two against three is possible, but one against two is almost certain to be a loss. In other words, if the cat and eagle are separated, the three Ancestral God-level powerhouses of the Myriad Beasts Universe can seize the opportunity to send one of them to hold off one of them, thus creating a two-against-one situation on the other side.

In fact, the two sides have already engaged in several offensive and defensive maneuvers based on this point, which were naturally filled with all sorts of conspiracies and tricks.

The cat said with a worried look, "Honestly, those two cats are really naughty, and that old lion is also very difficult to deal with. If only we could get one more person to help us."

Eagle withdrew his gaze from the virtual sandbox, shook his head, and said, "Our war with the Beast Universe has now reached a fever pitch. Every sovereign powerhouse has heavy responsibilities, so forget about providing support. Let's start from our actual situation and think about how to break this deadlock."

The cat rolled around on the large throne, complaining, "If only Little Wolf were here! Little Wolf is so powerful, he could definitely crush the entire Beast Universe!"

After a moment of silence, the eagle said coldly, "Don't mention that traitor Wolf again. He's no longer a member of our Council of Beasts!"

The cat stopped rolling, glared at the eagle, and said angrily, "The little wolf is our partner, of course! The little wolf has always been our partner!!"

Eagle shook his head and said calmly, "Don't be naive. Cat, Wolf has already joined the Beast Universe camp. He even founded the Fire Seed Alliance, which has always been our enemy."

"That...that was just..." The cat was speechless for a moment, so it simply turned its head away and ignored the eagle, sitting there alone and sulking.

Seeing the cat's appearance, the eagle sighed silently.

The battlefield is ever-changing, and even dominant powerhouses like cats and eagles don't have much time to rest.

When the time for fusion arrived on the battlefield, the five magnificent figures began a new round of confrontation.

Looking at the siblings Yunqi and Yunluo, the cat couldn't help but say, "You two are really stubborn! The cat clan's inherited artifact is in my hands. I am the cat clan's lord. You should submit to me. Why do you keep opposing me?!"

Yun Qi's face was cold, and Yun Luo pointed at the cat and said, "You are the thief! The Universe of Ten Thousand Beasts is the origin of the cat race. Since you have obtained the inheritance of my cat race, you should return to the cat race, not become our enemy!"

"I'll give you a chance. Immediately return the inherited artifact of my cat clan, then bring your subordinates back to the cat clan and make amends for what you've done!"

The cat said angrily, "Aren't you Little Wolf's men? Little Wolf is on our side, why don't you understand?!"

Yun Luo said arrogantly, "Lord Wolf is a pillar of our Myriad Beasts Universe, how could he possibly be from the Starry Universe? Even if he was before, he isn't now!"

Eagle paid no attention to the argument between Cat and Cloudfall. Apart from focusing most of her attention on the Lion Clan Ancestral God, she also paid a small part of her attention to the fusion spacetime node below.

The fusion of spacetime nodes is a special phenomenon that rarely occurs in the boundary region. It is formed by the fusion of several spacetime nodes. The energy provided by the fused spacetime nodes is not additive, but multiplicative.

Therefore, the energy that a fused spacetime node can provide is often hundreds of times, or even more, than that of an ordinary spacetime node.

After exchanging barbs for a while, when Cat and Cloudfall realized once again that neither could convince the other, they finally chose to shut up.

High above, the strong confront each other, while below, in the fusion spacetime node, is another battlefield, where the strong from the Myriad Beasts Universe and the Starry Universe fight fiercely, all wanting to seize this node.

Meanwhile, high above, unnoticed by everyone, Xuanling and Youdi coldly surveyed the entire battlefield.

Emperor You asked, "Will the dragon come?"

Xuanling said, "Of course, the two Ancestral Gods are not only the initial members of the Beast Council over there, but this Eagle Lord is also a confidant of the Dragon. Heh! As long as they realize that it was us who made the move, the Dragon should come."

In fact, Xuanling and Youdi had the opportunity to directly suppress the cat and the eagle, but of course they could not do so, because once this precedent of the supreme powerhouse being able to act at will was set, then in the subsequent battlefield, the dragon could also act at will against the ancestral god-level powerhouses of the myriad beast universe.

If it really comes to that, it will become a massacre of the enemy by the strongest on both sides.

Emperor You nodded slightly, and with a light tap of his finger in the void, more than a dozen nearby rule-based illusions that had not yet been occupied immediately deflated like balloons with the air sucked out.

These chaotic rules did not disappear, but were injected into the fused spacetime node out of thin air. The fused spacetime node immediately went berserk and expanded in an instant, encompassing a large area of ​​space.

After doing all this, Emperor You did not stop, but softly murmured, "Twins reversed, cause and effect interchanged."

The cat and the eagle, the siblings Yunqi and Yunluo, and the Lion Clan Ancestral God—these five powerful individuals were swept into the rampaging fusion spacetime node without any resistance.

As soon as the cat and eagle fell, the dragon sensed it immediately and turned its attention to them.

With the dragon's wisdom, it naturally realized that this might be a conspiracy between Xuanling and Youdi, but with its strength, it was naturally not afraid of the two.

The next moment, the dragon transcended space and time and appeared above the fusion spacetime node. He first looked at the rampaging fusion spacetime node. At this time, the chaotic rules had gathered to a certain extent and began to indiscriminately devour everything around it, thereby expanding itself without limit.

In this situation, even a supreme-level powerhouse would find it difficult to escape, and would eventually be torn apart by the increasingly violent and chaotic rules.

The dragon said, "Two for three? I didn't expect that in a million years, not only has your strength not improved, but your brains have also become malfunctioning."

Emperor You sneered, "You don't need to stir up trouble here. I have already locked in the fate of the two cat siblings and the three lion ancestral gods through causal substitution. The only ones who will die are your cat lord and eagle lord."

Long chuckled and said, "Locking in destiny? You really don't know your place! You've only scratched the surface of the law of cause and effect, yet you dare to speak so presumptuously about destiny?! Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed?"

Emperor You was taken aback, and looked at the dragon with some surprise: "What do you mean?"

Dragon didn't explain, nor was he in a hurry to save the cat and the eagle. He casually looked around at the surroundings and said, "You must have more than just these tricks to lure me here, right? Show us what other arrangements you have, lest we don't even have a chance to use them later."

Emperor You snorted coldly. Xuanling took out a rule crystal that emitted a faint light and said softly, "This is the current situation. You should have observed it well enough. This is a good opportunity to deal with the dragon. It's time to show yourself, Wolf Lord, isn't it?"

Rules intertwine, energy converges, and the incarnation of Mellen descends upon this place.

Long turned his attention back to Mellen and smiled, "It seems you're in good shape, which is good news for me."

Just this one sentence made Xuanling and Youdi's hearts skip a beat. After so much time, they had naturally gathered most of the information about Mellen, and even knew about his many experiences in the Starry Universe. That's why they set their sights on the cat and the eagle. Besides testing Mellen's attitude, it also implied another deeper meaning.

Originally, Xuanling and Youdi thought that Melon joined the Myriad Beasts Universe because he was unwilling to be subordinate to the dragon, which can be indirectly confirmed by Melon's god-level strength.

Moreover, even if Mellen has any plans, they are Mellen's own actions, and the ultimate goal should be the same as theirs, namely, to help the Beast Universe achieve final victory.

Xuanling and Youdi's desire to weaken both Melon and the dragon was simply a conflict of interest.

However, it seems that things are not so simple now. If Mellen still has connections with the dragons, then Mellen's plan is really for the Beast Universe.

Although it seems that everything Melen is doing is steering the Beastman universe in a better direction, ...

Just as Xuanling and Youdi were lost in thought because of Long's words, Mellen said calmly, "Long, you are still as powerful as ever. With just one sentence, you have eroded the little trust we have left."

The dragon said somewhat innocently, "How can you blame me? It's clearly your own problem. However, Xuanling and Youdi have always been like this. Wolf, even if your side wins in the end, you still have to be careful of their backstabbing."

"Yeah, my teammates are unreliable, which is one of the reasons why I switched sides to the Starry Universe."

"Hmph!" Emperor You scoffed, "Because you were afraid of our betrayal, you betrayed us first? What a twisted logic! Dragon, you, a traitor, have no right to judge us!"

"Hehe! Dragon, you're too confident, talking so much to us..."
