1118 Unite 2 (1/2)
Hum!
A dazzling white light burst forth and made a whooshing noise before a dark silhouette appeared.
When he realized that something was amiss, a jumping wormhole opened behind the black figure instantly. He retreated swiftly while attempting to escape.
”Roar!!!”
Suddenly, a transparent and shapeless sound wave leaped across the distance in the middle. It sputtered out of Garen's mouth and struck the wormhole.
A puffing noise could be heard as the wormhole turned into fragile soap bubbles that evaporated quickly. The black figure who had just entered it screamed painfully. His body was instantly cut into two halves by the empty space before it self-detonated.
”There are more here!”
Ice-Crack snorted coldly and extended his hand simultaneously. He grabbed another black figure from a different area and pressed down against his head directly. He was getting ready to subdue his opponent but did not expect this person to detonate himself abruptly. He was able to quickly move backward in time but his clothes were now slightly messy. Ice-Crack's expression remained somewhat indifferent.
Within a few short moments, the dark colossal dragon was almost digested completely. Garen saw that the evolution and rate of progress of the Hellfrost Peacock Queen inside his body had gradually increased by one point and had reached six percent.
The surrounding powerhouses of Silver Bell Stream were either dead or captured.
”Ice-Crack, stay back and kill all the high-grade Silver Bell members on this planet. The others will continue to set out. We'll converge on Planet Naga,” Garen released an order before countless strands flew back into his palm cleanly and quickly. Only then did he turn around to leave.
”Yes!” Ice-Crack's entire body was brimming with tremendous and uncontrollable energy and gravitational forces. These were the symptoms of someone who had recently entered Level Eight but could not perfectly restrain themselves yet.
Garen and Ice-Grand returned to the battle fortress. After a period of jumps, they disappeared in outer space quickly.
******************
”Has Jeros gone mad?!”
A voice sounded within a certain completely dark space in the universe suddenly. It was unclear whether the voice belonged to a man or a woman.
”He actually led Scarlet Snow Sect to invade the other sects everywhere. How bold… He destroyed thirteen individual sects within two days while forming coalition agreements with eight other sects. What is he trying to do?” The sound of another woman's voice could be heard.
”If his older sister wasn't here… Hmph!”
”The title of Wraith Monarch has already been conferred upon his older sister. She's currently vying with her father, the previous Wraith Monarch, for supremacy. After that, she will probably challenge His Majesty. After all, the Wraith Royalty is a declining aristocracy. They were indeed glorious previously but have already become out-of-date now.”
”The times are advancing. Therefore, those who don't follow the changes will be eliminated.”
Numerous clamorous voices echoed continuously as if many people were trying to speak simultaneously.
Boom!!!
In the faraway starry sky, a star exploded suddenly and burst into dazzling and bewitching halos that illuminated the entire space.
Everything here was instantly illuminated and completely exposed down to the smallest detail.
There was only a single gigantic human figure here. Its upper body was human while its lower body had taken root within an enormous monster on the pitch-black planet.
The strangest part was that it did not only have one head. Instead, it had more than ten human heads that were all attached to one body.
There were both male and female heads that were densely packed together. All of them had long snake-like necks that were connected to the torso. These human heads were debating, discussing and speaking to each other as if they were not a single person but a large group of individuals instead.
The monster looked like a large black tree. The tree roots were indistinct root hairs while the tree trunk was the monster's torso and body. Meanwhile, the crown of the tree was its countless human heads.
”Do you want to get rid of Jeros?” Within the large crowd, the head of an old man opened his mouth slowly. The surrounding human heads became silent instantly when he opened his mouth.
”What about Nila? Let him decide.”
”I'm afraid that he won't agree. Despite who he is, he probably isn't the opponent of the new Wraith Monarch. Other than His Majesty and the Black King, the two major nebulae of our human race and the Finites can only depend on the Golden Thread Flower King who is the only one who can suppress the Wraith Monarch. The others are not her opponents.”
Another head of an old woman opened its mouth as well.
”Within the twenty-five Regent Levels, unless we can find three of them who are closely ranked to the first few Regent Levels and ally ourselves with them simultaneously, we won't be able to touch Jeros temporarily,” nodded the old man.
”But if we just look on while he plunders recklessly, what's going to happen in the event that the plan is sabotaged?”
”Isn't the plan already considered as an overt plot?” said the old man indifferently. ”Inform the other nine planets that they should get to work now.”
********************
Boom!!!
There was an intense vibration before a dazzling yet terrifying golden light exploded in front of Garen in outer space.
In the space between Garen and the planet on the opposite side of him, both Ice-Crack and Ice-Grand were currently working together to besiege a mummy-like Guardian whose entire body was ragged.
It was already the third day of their expedition. They had jumped across numerous medium-sized sects. Garen had overlooked the small-sized sects directly because they were not major threats. He had leeched on to more than ten Level Eight Guardians and the one that he was currently suppressing was the nineteenth one.
The golden light dimmed quickly. The white bandages that covered the mummified Guardian's body completely were gradually frozen solid by the hard ice before most of them broke and cracked. He continued supporting himself while the remaining powerhouses of this sect were already completely seized by the powerhouses of Scarlet Snow and the remaining powerhouses of other sects that were being subdued midway. The slightest chance for resistance was non-existent.
Garen did not even have to undertake the task personally. He merely stood in outer space and looked on quietly while his subordinates besieged his opponents without a trace of foul temperament.
Shh!
He jerked his hand before a sliver of a hidden Distorted Seed poked out. When one of its opponent's flaws was exposed in the crossfire, the seed immediately took the opportunity to penetrate the body of the dark mummified Guardian.
The entire mummy halted firmly before its body stiffened at once.
Ice-Crack and Ice-Grand who were in the surroundings stopped moving simultaneously as if they had a mutual agreement with each other as well. They watched the following changes that occurred within the mummy with ease. They knew that a powerful new member was about to join them.
