Chapter 709
Arrival
In the Solar System, in the starry expanse approximately a hundred million kilometers from Earth.
Twelve Marquis-level Undying beings were surrounding a massive dark golden flying saucer, attacking Luo Feng and Dilun, who were hidden inside.
“Use soul attacks through the spaceship to deal with Luo Feng. Ignore everything else, just kill him directly!” Yanzhu King roared via telepathy. “Absolutely, absolutely do not let Dilun take Luo Feng into a world. Once Luo Feng enters a world, this battle will be meaningless.”
“Yes, my lord.”
All twelve Undying beings unleashed soul attacks. Even those not proficient in soul attacks did so, as 'Undying Power' gains soul attack capabilities once etherealized.
Regardless of whether they followed the warrior path or the spirit reader path.
They all utilized Undying Divine Power.
...
Inside the spaceship.
“Don’t worry, with you inside me, they can’t break in. However, you’ll have to block the soul attacks yourselves.” A giant human face appeared on the wall of the resting cabin, chuckling at Luo Feng and Dilun. “Soul attacks are ineffective against me, but I also can’t defend against them. The material of this resting cabin’s walls has some blocking effect against etherealized Undying Power, which can weaken soul attacks. This is all I can do.”
“Leave the soul attacks to me,” Dilun said solemnly.
At the same time, invisible streams of Undying Power swirled around Luo Feng, helping him resist the attacks from the twelve Undying beings.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Though unseen, Luo Feng could sense the etherealized Undying Divine Power repeatedly clashing within the cabin.
“These bastards keep dispersing the World Power I summon, Your Highness. I can’t get you into a world at all,” Dilun said, a hint of anxiety on his face. “These guys are directly targeting you now. It seems they purely want to kill you.”
“Kill me?” Luo Feng was secretly alarmed. “Dilun, can you hold them off?”
“It’s very difficult,” Dilun replied via telepathy, his expression grave. “Fortunately, I specialize in soul-related techniques, and I’m quite adept at soul defense. Coupled with the weakening and obstructing effect of this resting cabin’s wall material, I can temporarily hold them off. However, three of those twelve Marquis-level Undying beings specialize in soul attacks. If this drags on, I might not be able to endure.”
Boom!
Boom!
In a series of head-on clashes with etherealized soul attacks, Dilun manipulated the etherealized Undying Power, forming a complex, multifaceted shield around Luo Feng, steadfastly enduring each assault.
“Dilun, hold on for a moment. Jiujian Venerable’s forces will be here soon,” Luo Feng transmitted.
“Understood.” Dilun’s expression was serious as he desperately resisted.
“Ah!” A scream.
Boom!
An explosion echoed from outside the spaceship.
...
In the starry expanse, the twelve Marquis-level Undying beings, though aware that the cosmic spaceship had integrated with a metal lifeform and maintained a certain vigilance, keeping a safe distance from the ship, had repeatedly failed to land successful soul attacks. Naturally, they became even more desperate.
The greater the distance, the weaker soul attacks naturally became. Thus, in their anxiety, the twelve of them began to approach the cosmic spaceship.
Just moments ago, quite suddenly—
The seemingly sturdy hull of the dark golden flying saucer suddenly extended a dark golden metallic hand. The entire hand moved like lightning, comparable to the attack speed of a King-level Undying. With a grasp of the void… it directly seized one of the Marquis-level Undying beings proficient in soul attacks, and with a squeeze!
With a boom, it crushed that Undying being!
“Watch out for this spaceship.”
“Stay away from the spaceship.”
The other eleven Undying beings were greatly alarmed.
“Whoosh, whoosh~~~” A large number of green light particles rapidly converged from all directions in the starry expanse, instantly forming a black-robed, purple-haired woman. Clearly, her Undying body had reached the state of an ‘Undying Body’. The purple-haired woman anxiously transmitted, “Everyone be careful, this metal lifeform has a deep comprehension of Space Law. When it just crushed my Undying body, my countless fragmented Undying Divine Power couldn’t escape for a moment. Its palm sealed space, forcibly annihilating my Undying Divine Power. My strength is now greatly diminished.”
“What?!” The other eleven were greatly alarmed.
For those who have cultivated an Undying Body, being dispersed once has almost no impact on their strength.
Of course, it also depends on who is performing the attack. For instance, in Chaos City, the Chaos City Lord once remotely condensed a giant palm and casually struck two Undying beings, bringing them incredibly close to death without actually killing them. This level of control is far more difficult than simply killing two Undying beings.
Another example is Zhenyan King, who can completely kill a Marquis-level being in a single move.
“Hahahaha… see if you dare to underestimate me! Haha, of the three proficient in soul attacks, one is severely injured. The other two can forget about attacking with full power.” The giant human face on the flying saucer’s hull laughed loudly, simultaneously transforming into afterimages. Two large hands also extended from the hull, repeatedly grabbing at the surroundings.
It specifically targeted the other two who were proficient in soul techniques!
This forced the twelve Marquis-level Undying beings to repeatedly dodge while trying to maintain their soul attacks, naturally greatly reducing their offensive power.
...
Through the ‘external view simulation’, Luo Feng and Dilun clearly saw everything happening outside.
“Much easier now,” Dilun said, surprised.
“What a powerful spaceship,” Luo Feng secretly praised.
This spaceship was an F9-level cosmic spaceship integrated with a metal lifeform. Its material defense was extremely powerful, and a metal lifeform capable of integrating with a ‘spaceship’ was even more unique. It was like a ‘metal mountain range’ suddenly becoming a lifeform; its life structure was, of course, vastly different from flesh-and-blood lifeforms.
In the universe, many, many lifeforms lack souls; the Demon Killer Clan clone is one such example. These soulless lifeforms naturally possess other ‘life cores’.
...
When Luo Feng, Dilun, and the metal lifeform spaceship were no longer in danger from the twelve Marquis-level Undying beings.
Yanzhu King and the other six King-level beings, however, grew anxious.
“Useless, utterly useless,” Yanzhu King roared in his heart.
“Hahaha… Yanzhu, you can’t even harm Luo Feng. I think you should just give up,” the Bloodthirsty King laughed, brandishing a strangely shaped battle saber as he fought against the six King-level Undying beings.
Rumble~~~~
The surrounding cosmic space was completely torn apart. Even as it tried to mend, it was ripped open again. The starry expanse, millions of kilometers in diameter, was utterly shattered. Within that spatial fragment turbulence, the seven great King-level Undying beings battled each other fiercely, turning the world upside down. Not even a trace of harm could be inflicted upon them by the spatial fragment turbulence.
“Bang!”
Yanzhu King forcibly withstood a saber strike, instantly retreating hundreds of thousands of kilometers, spitting out a mouthful of golden blood.
“Senior Brother, what do we do?” The other five King-level beings were also anxious. The black armored woman among them asked via telepathy, “The six of us are at a disadvantage against the Bloodthirsty King. And those twelve useless beings can’t kill Luo Feng. We’re simply wasting time here. Since the Bloodthirsty King is here, the Virtual Universe Company’s forces will probably arrive soon.”
“I know,” Yanzhu King said, extremely anxious.
Just then—
Suddenly, golden light rippled around the distant dark golden flying saucer. Beneath the hazy golden glow, an incredibly vast oppressive aura spread out. This immense pressure… instantly enveloped tens of millions of kilometers, even causing Yanzhu King, the Bloodthirsty King, and the other seven King-level Undying beings who were fighting to halt.
“God Kingdom Teleportation!” Yanzhu King’s face turned ashen.
Dense figures, each radiating an astonishing oppressive aura, converged to an incredible degree. Even from over a million kilometers away, Yanzhu King still felt his heart tremble.
Silence!
The starry expanse fell silent. The twelve Marquis-level Undying beings regrouped with Yanzhu King, Pujin King, and the other six King-level beings. The Bloodthirsty King also flew towards the dark golden flying saucer. A hatch naturally opened on the saucer’s hull, and Luo Feng and Dilun flew directly into the starry expanse.
“My heavens,” Luo Feng was utterly stunned, looking at the dense figures standing in the starry expanse before him.
At a glance, there were at least a thousand people!
Each person’s aura and oppressive presence seemed to surpass Dilun’s, and many even rivaled the Bloodthirsty King’s.
The sudden arrival of a thousand Undying beings via God Kingdom Teleportation in the silent starry expanse carried an intimidating power even greater than that of the Undying insectoid mother nest from last time. These were not ordinary 1,000 Undying beings; these were the true elites of a Universe Venerable’s army, capable of easily crushing an Undying insectoid mother nest.
Leading these thousand individuals was an emerald green armored woman, bearing two swords on her back, from whom a cold aura emanated.
“Luo Feng,” she looked at Luo Feng, “We have been dispatched by the Venerable to protect you.”
“Thank you, Venerable, and thank you all,” Luo Feng bowed respectfully in the starry expanse.
The emerald green armored deity, carrying the oppressive aura of the entire army, looked directly at Yanzhu King and coldly demanded, “Yanzhu King, Luo Feng is a member of my Virtual Universe Company. By what right does your Giant Axe Martial Arena attack a member of my Virtual Universe Company?”
“Hmph.”
Yanzhu King’s face was grim. Wiping a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, he merely let out a cold snort.
“Everyone, apprehend Yanzhu King,” the emerald green armored deity commanded.
“Yes!”
Immediately, twenty-six King-level Undying beings from the army surged forward like lightning. This instantly caused Yanzhu King and the other six King-level beings’ expressions to change drastically. The Virtual Universe Company and the Giant Axe Martial Arena were the two strongest human factions, and rivalry between them was common. However, Yanzhu King was in the wrong today. If he were truly captured, it would be very troublesome for the Giant Axe Martial Arena to send someone to redeem him.
Moreover, being captured would be a tremendous loss of face.
“Get lost!!!” Yanzhu King’s eyes blazed with madness as he let out a fierce roar. Ancient secret patterns on his forehead suddenly lit up, and an incredibly terrifying aura spread in all directions, as if a peerless fierce beast was slowly awakening. Yanzhu King’s glabella even split open, revealing a purple vertical eye.
The purple vertical eye erupted with a purple gaze, sweeping across the surrounding space, causing it to solidify. He would rather risk severe injury than be captured.
“Rumble~~~”
Ripples spread through the starry expanse as an oppressive aura suddenly descended, as if a divine dragon had arrived to suppress countless ants. This oppressive aura, leaving no room for resistance, instantly spread throughout the surrounding starfield. The originally imposing Undying army was directly suppressed, and even Yanzhu King, who had just erupted, was pressured, his activated secret technique forcibly interrupted.
A blurry figure gradually emerged.
“Father!!!” Yanzhu King turned his head, shouting in surprise.
