Chapter 587: Intense Battle and Escape

“The nobles of the Empire felt that this wild sub-universe might contain abundant cultivation resources, hence they sent us to decisively conquer it.”

Zhang Zicheng said anxiously at this time,

“However, it seems that the strength of this wild sub-universe isn’t low. Most importantly, this giant serpent is difficult to deal with.”

“Let’s go, we should stop this monster. These cosmic-level cultivators can’t deal with it at all.”

Nalan Kang understands that their plan to conquer this sub-universe is going to fail. With such a powerful creature protecting it, their efforts are all for naught.

Judging from the strength this serpent showed, he is at least a peak domain master. Even if the seven of them join forces now, Nalan Kang doesn’t have absolute confidence to stop this monster.

Zhang Zicheng and the others naturally had no objection. After looking at each other, they ran towards the exit chamber. Soon afterward, 7 colorful light beams flew out from the command ship.

“All of you, retreat!.”

After Nalan Kang appeared on the battlefield, he shouted at the planet, star, and cosmic-level cultivators that are struggling against the great serpent.

As the warriors fled one after the other, Fang Yun didn’t bother to chase them but looked at Nalan Kang, Zhang Zicheng, and the other five.

“Seven domain master-level cultivators…”

The moment Fang Yun looked at Nalan Kang and the others, he immediately felt their terrifying energy. Just the aura they unconsciously exuded caused the space around them to collapse. Their energy intensity is far superior to that of cosmic-level powerhouses.

Fang Yun instantly judged that they are domain master level powerhouses

According to the system’s prompts. Each one of these cultivators can provide him with 1 trillion bio-energy points. The seven of them can provide him with a total of 7 trillion points.

“Not bad.”

Fang Yun flicked his tongue. The next moment, he pounced towards the seven powerhouses in front of him. His speed was beyond the speed of light, causing all matter around him to disintegrate and collapse.

The opposite Nalan Kang, Zhang Zicheng, and the others watched as the serpent behemoth instantly appeared in front of them.

“Let’s attack together.”

Facing such a rapid attack, they didn’t have the time to dodge. As experienced masters, they immediately understood that their best choice of action is to confront this behemoth head-on.

If they chose to dodge now, they are likely to be severely injured or even entirely devoured.

Finally, they want to personally test the power of this serpent.

Following all of the above, the seven of them have no choice but to fight head-on. They clenched their fists and sent seven space-wrapping punches. As they moved their hands, seven gigantic first images, millions of kilometers wide, headed towards the great serpent.

The space around them was distorted and all matter in their way, whether it was a planet or a meteor, instantly disintegrated. However, as the giant fist phantoms approached Fang Yun, they started dissipating mid-way.

It was the great turtle assistance from the back. As Fang Yun continued to grow, the giant turtle also showed no growth limit, especially with the help of all the resources of the Metaverse.

Whether in terms of range or power, its current space manipulation ability is far superior to before.

“Huh?”

Nalan Kang and Zhang Zicheng immediately glanced at the giant turtle. After looking at each other, they immediately made a plan. One of them turned around and headed towards the great turtle and the other six continued to besiege Fang Yun.

While previously launching the space fist attacks, they also used the counter-shock force to retreat. Otherwise, Fang Yun would not give them the chance to approach the great turtle at all.

Seeing that one of the enemy powerhouses was flying towards the giant turtle, Fang Yun’s eyes flashed, then focused his attention on the six people ahead.

A mysterious aura radiated out from his body. In the next moment, he instantly disappeared, then reappeared next to one of the six enemies.

The face of that person suddenly changed. His aura immediately surged then heavily punched Fang Yun, trying to push him away. The collision between the two broke the surrounding space and created an intense space quake, destroying the surrounding area.

“Boom!!!”

However, Fang Yun was unshaken. He looked coldly at the enemy domain master, then struck him with his body. The man was launched far away, coughing blood due to his injuries.

Half of his body was destroyed, but as a domain master, the body’s recovery ability is very powerful. Granulations of flesh started growing over his injuries. His body was being quickly restored.

“Not dead yet?”

Fang Yun was a little surprised but quickly noticed that although that guy was quickly recovering, his aura has become a lot weaker. Fang Yun guessed that after that guy completely recovers, he will need to rest and recover for a while before restoring his peak strength.

Unfortunately, he won’t have any chance to recover.

Fang Yun quickly rushed towards that guy, thinking that it would be best to kill him before he recovers, but the other five suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped him.

“Boom!!”

Fang Yun didn’t hesitate at all and directly fought the five domain masters at the same time. All kinds of brilliant light explosions and space quakes appeared around the area of the battle, shattering all material in that area and creating a void that stretches for hundreds of billions of kilometers.

At the moment, the ‘low-level’ cultivators on both sides have basically stopped fighting. They all stood far away from the battlefield, for fear that the battle between those monsters would affect them.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

It’s unknown how many times Fang Yun, Nalan Kang, and the others have collided, but Fang Yun’s attacks gradually became sharper, stronger, and more frequent.

He became more brave and energetic as he fought.

On the other hand, Nalan Kang and the others were in a completely different situation.

The more they fought, the weaker they became. They were like ships in a storm, in danger of sinking at any time. Through the course of the battle, they mostly defended and evaded. They rarely took the initiative to attack.

“Damn it, we’re not the opponents of this monster.”

Nalan Kang glanced at Zhang Zicheng and the others and noticed their struggle. A trace of panic couldn’t help but rise in his heart.

This monster can still prevail against 6 domain masters. How powerful exactly is it? Has it reached that level?

“It’s almost invincible.”

Nalan Kang thought internally. His gaze suddenly flew to another place. On that side, one of their companions was fighting against that giant turtle.

The giant turtle is far less powerful than this serpent, but their companion couldn’t deal with it for a while. This giant turtle has great control over space. Whether it’s defending or escaping, their companion could hardly touch it. It’s a headache.

“There’s nothing we can do, we have to retreat.”

Zhang Zicheng suddenly said to Nalan Kang.

Nalan Kang opened his mouth, seemingly to hesitate, but still nodded in the end.

“Retreat!”

Before he could even complete his sentence, the fleet started to retreat. The crew of the fleet is terrified at this moment, they just want to leave this place.

The domain master who fought against the great turtle returned and joined the battle against Fang Yun, fighting while retreating.

“There is no need to drag this battle.”

Fang Yun chuckled softly as he looked at Zhang Zicheng and the others who were fighting and retreating. He is now completely certain that his strength has exceeded the domain master level.

After all, in his opinion, these guys are weak.

On the surface, they might seem on the same level as they exchanged blows countless times, but he was actually using just a part of his strength. He wanted to test the exact strength of domain masters.

Now that he has obtained a clear understanding, there’s no need to hide his strength anymore.

After making this decision, Fang Yun’s attack suddenly became much more aggressive. Within just a few strikes, the domain master’s expression changed.

“Damn, how could this monster’s strength increase so much!”

Nalan Kang had an ominous premonition. He might not go back alive this time.

“Retreat at full speed! Did you hear me?! Retreat at full speed!!”

“Immediately send a message to the empire. This place is dangerous. Don’t send any more people! It’s best to report the existence of this sub-universe to other empires and try to drive them to attack it!”

Nalan Kang’s mental transmission was also received by Fang Yun.

Fang Yun’s face turned gloomy upon receiving it. This bastard is looking for death!

If he just asks the Gama Empire to stop coveting the Metaverse, he might let it go in the future, but this bastard wants to involve other Empires, driving them to attack this sub-universe.

If that truly happens, their situation will be extremely bad.

Of course, this is also a thankless and even stupid thing for the Gama Empire. After all, its territory is on the edge of the ancient universe. It’s also the closest Empire to the Metaverse.

To reach this place, many fleets have to pass through their empire’s territory, which will definitely have some impact on it.

Some Empires might even take the opportunity to directly conquer the Gama Empire and include it in their territory.

Nalan Kang’s sole intention was to make it hard for Fang Yun and the Metaverse.

Since this guy wants to make it hard for them, Fang Yun won’t make it easy for him.

“Roar!!”

Fang Yun heaved an earth-shattering roar. He suddenly opened his mouth and released an extremely powerful gamma-ray, turning trillions of kilometers ahead of him into dust.

As the target of this attack, Nalan Kang was instantly blown into pieces. Even if he quickly regenerated, his aura wilted to the extreme.

“Run!!”

Nalan Kang yelled loudly. After yelling, he tried to run away with his badly injured body, but before he could cross a certain distance or teleport, a giant head appeared behind him, then directly devoured him.

The rest of the domain masters were terrified upon seeing this scene. They squeezed out every last bit of strength in their body and quickly fled.

However, compared to Fang Yun that can move at a speed far beyond the speed of light, their speed was too slow.

He directly collected 7 trillion bio-energy points.

After solving these seven people, Fang Yun chased after the fleeing fleet. The remaining cosmic, star, and planet-level cultivators were Fang Yun’s main target.

Under the all-attributes suppression, many people were swallowed by Fang Yun and turned into pure bio-energy.

Nebula and the others behind were all shocked and excited at Fang Yun’s vigorous and powerful stance.

The stronger Fang Yun’s performance, the greater their sense of security, but they also knew that they can’t rely solely on Fang Yun to protect the Metaverse.

If they can’t follow in the footsteps of Ouroboros, they will definitely be abandoned one day. Deep in his heart, Nebula is certain that this day will arrive. He hopes that when that time arrives, they would already have the strength to stand on their own.

“Huh.”

After heaving a deep sigh, Nebula locked one of the escaping star-level powerhouses and then rushed towards him. He could just wait for Fang Yun to get rid of all these enemy cultivators, but his goal this time is more than just winning the war. He wants to temper himself in battle and reach for an even higher level.

He doesn’t have the guts to fight against cosmic-level powerhouses, but he isn’t afraid of the star-level cultivators.

“Boom!!”

Nebula fought against a star-level master. The two sides heavily collided, creating giant light explosions, they disappeared and appeared randomly within the range of a million kilometers, leaving reigns of destruction behind and creating countless explosions.

All of this was seen by Fang Yun.

“Yes, this Nebula has the potential to go further.”

To be honest, Fang Yun felt that the talents of Nebula and the other speakers aren’t too high. On the contrary, Fang Yun felt that that guy called Luo Feng is quite promising.

That guy has the potential to reach a high level of cultivation.

However, since Nebula and some others dare to bet their lives and fight, they might be able to break past their potential and reach an even higher level.

“If nothing unexpected happens, they should be able to reach the cosmic level, but that should be their limit.”

Fang Yun has already judged the future of Nebula and the other current peak powerhouses of the Metaverse. Unless they get a great opportunity or have an earth-shaking discovery, their limit is the cosmic level.

Looking away from Nebula and the others, Fang Yun locked the fleeing enemy fleet. With a sharp glint in his eyes, he pounced on them.

“Ahh!!”

“Noo!!!”

“Help! Save me!!”

Countless piercing cries rang out over the battlefield, but they soon died out.

The final battle lasted for a long time. They spent most of the time chasing the deserters.

About half a month later, this battle finally concluded. This war caused the Metaverse to lose a lot of its powerful cultivators.

However, they also reaped a lot of benefits. They obtained various cultivation techniques and martial skills, and finally cultivation resources.

These things are enough to make up for their loss this time.
