Chapter 649

Chapter 649: Successfully Settled

Neither the Shadow Clan nor Mares had any sources of information in the Lance Star Cluster.

To be more cautious, after reaching the outer space of a life planet controlled by the Boljin Tribe, Yi Chen first located a Deserted Star and set up a teleportation array.

Then he sent five Shadow Kings to collect information from the surrounding major life planets.

Five days later, the five Shadow Kings returned with the information they had gathered. After some research, Yi Chen was ready to take action.

Everyone stayed inside the flying treasure, while the Shadow King used his stealth techniques to quickly take Yi Chen to the nearest life planet.

Upon arrival, Yi Chen transformed into the appearance of a Boljin Tribe member using the Transformation Technique.

Then, by passing through a spatial rift, they reached the first target life planet of the Boljin Tribe.

The Shadow King activated his hiding state, emerged from the flying treasure, and enveloped Yi Chen as they made their way to the palace of their target.

This target was a level 210 strong fighter from the Boljin Tribe.

The surrounding ten or more life planets were all within this strong fighter’s territory.

At that moment, this level 210 strong fighter, who held absolute dominion over thousands of life planets, was cultivating within the palace’s defensive barriers.

Unaware that danger was approaching.

The Shadow King led Yi Chen silently past the layers of guards’ defense lines, reaching the outer edge of the defensive barriers.

Then they quietly infiltrated the interior of the barriers.

Afterward, the Shadow King transmitted images of the area to Yi Chen using his Perception Ability.

Yi Chen then cast the Luck Technique.

Instantly, a continuous wave of green luck surged into his Qi Sea like a tide.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes…

It wasn’t until three or four hours later that Yi Chen successfully drained the luck of the level 210 Boljin Tribe strong fighter using the Luck Technique.

Returning the black luck to the Boljin Tribe strong fighter, Yi Chen sent a notification to the Shadow King.

The Shadow King quickly took Yi Chen away, and they continued until they were far from the life planet, ensuring there was no trace of enemies nearby before returning with Mares back to the palace.

So far, Mares had already defeated and killed two level 210 strong fighters, building up significant confidence.

Therefore, he felt no turmoil within.

“Are you ready?” the Shadow King sent a message to him.

Mares immediately took out several high-quality immortal materials from the Space Stone that could greatly enhance his attack and reaction speed, consuming them.

Once he confirmed that his aura was rapidly rising, he replied to the Shadow King, “I’m ready!”

“Attack in three seconds!”

The Shadow King took a deep breath, trying to get as close as possible to the level 210 Boljin Tribe strong fighter.

At such a close distance, the cultivating Boljin Tribe strong fighter only felt a slight annoyance, but did not think much of it.

Three seconds passed, and Mares suddenly launched his attack.

He burst out from the Shadow King’s hiding state, thrusting the giant branches toward the back of the Boljin Tribe warrior.

The Boljin Tribe’s reaction was as quick as that of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe in the same realm, and they were on a higher level compared to Mares, who was one major realm lower.

Even though Mares had consumed high-quality immortal materials to boost his reaction speed, it still fell short.

However, with Mares being so close and ready to strike, the Boljin Tribe warrior sensed something was off just a moment too late. His defensive shield had not been raised to its peak when the giant branches crashed into him.

With a loud bang, the attack shattered his defensive shield and slammed against his back.

The Boljin Tribe warrior coughed up blood, screaming as he was propelled forward.

With another loud bang, he crashed against the defensive barriers before coming to a stop.

Mares’s attack followed closely behind.

What terrified the Boljin Tribe warrior even more was the presence of another formidable aura that quietly approached from the side, launching an attack.

It was the Shadow King transformed into shadow spears.

They were executing a pincer attack.

The Boljin Tribe’s attacks were notoriously powerful, but their defense was far from impressive.

In a heavily injured state, he could only attack in order to defend, choosing to throw a punch at Mares.

This decision was, without a doubt, a terrible mistake.

At this moment, thanks to the acceleration from the Heart of Time, the Shadow King had also ascended to the ranks of the strong.

Although his attack was nowhere near as strong as Mares’s, it was far more terrifying.

Realizing the situation was dire, Mares immediately halted his attack to avoid the Boljin Tribe warrior’s punch.

The shadow spear created by the Shadow King, however, surged forward, quickly penetrating into the Boljin Tribe warrior’s body.

Sensing the danger, the Boljin Tribe warrior swung his fist to break the shadow spear, but it was too late.

A third of the shadow spear was already inside him.

Without hesitation, the Shadow King detonated the shadow spear within the Boljin Tribe warrior.

Boom!

The Boljin Tribe warrior, already injured from Mares’s surprise attack, suffered further damage from the explosion of the shadow spear, his massive body once again screaming as he was blasted away.

Taking the opportunity, Mares charged in with all his strength, hitting the Boljin Tribe warrior’s body and knocking him unconscious.

The Shadow King promptly produced the Immortal Vine to restrain the Boljin Tribe warrior.

Then, entering the hiding state, he wrapped both the Boljin Tribe warrior and Mares within it.

He swiftly passed through the defensive barriers, heading toward the area where Yi Chen was located.

These defensive barriers functioned to suppress sound and energy fluctuations.

Until the Shadow King left, the guards surrounding them remained completely unaware of the strange occurrence inside.

They successfully reunited with Yi Chen.

The next step was to find a way to force the level 210 Boljin Tribe warrior to surrender and sign the corresponding contract.

Yi Chen assigned this task to Mares.

Since they needed to rely on the warrior to strategize an attack against the level 220 Boljin Tribe strong fighter, he urged Mares to offer more lenient terms.

For instance, within ten years, he would return the warrior’s freedom, not take away any of his resources and treasures, and even provide him with a considerable amount of resources and treasures as a reward, while keeping this matter confidential.

Furthermore, Yi Chen also cast the Luck Technique, returning part of the luck to the level 210 Boljin Tribe warrior.

This was to ensure that the warrior wouldn’t unintentionally meet an unfortunate end due to any unexpected circumstances.

The main reason Yi Chen chose this level 210 Boljin Tribe warrior was that he was not someone with a violent temperament who would disregard losses for the sake of pride.

Indeed, after Mares presented various conditions, although the warrior was extremely angry, he still hesitated to sign a life-and-death contract with a level 200 strong fighter.

However, in the end, he chose to compromise.

After signing the contract, they would only wait for the level 210 Boljin Tribe warrior to recover from his injuries enough to unleash his strongest state of attack in a short term before carrying out the next plan.

Even though there were high-quality immortal materials to treat his injuries, recovery wouldn’t happen in just a day or two.

Though Yi Chen felt some anxiety, he could only cultivate patiently while waiting.
