Chapter 753: Successful Interception

As the Space Jump System activated, four Large Battleships quickly appeared at four locations that Maleko and Grove might pass through as they fled.

Eight two hundred and twenty level strong fighters immediately left the Large Battleships, quickly surrounding Maleko and Grove after learning their current positions from Bunier.

Maleko and Grove were clearly unaware that disaster was approaching.

"With your experience, have you shaken off our pursuers?"

Maleko transmitted the question to Grove while speeding forward.

"If there are no strong fighters skilled in tracking and searching techniques, we should only need about half an hour even if we haven’t completely lost them," Grove replied thoughtfully.

Maleko frowned.

This was the most troubling aspect for him.

If there were strong fighters from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe skilled in tracking and searching techniques, he could rely on his powerful treasure that blocked tracking to evade capture.

But Grove and his team could not do the same.

"Grove, we should probably split up," Maleko suggested.

Grove was momentarily stunned before understanding Maleko’s intent.

Throughout their escape, Maleko had refrained from using the treasure to block tracking to prevent being overtaken; he needed to have at least one two hundred and twenty level fighter capable enough to break through if cornered.

Now that they had likely shaken off their pursuers, he couldn’t confirm whether there were still adept trackers surviving among the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

To ensure safety, it would be best for Grove and his group to distance themselves from the star cluster.

This way, even if the Tree-Dwelling Tribe learned their coordinates, they would be hesitant to send out a large number of two hundred and twenty level fighters to pursue them.

After all, there was still Maleko in the star cluster.

With only half of the two hundred and twenty level fighters, as long as Grove and his level 210 subordinates were cautious and avoided being surrounded, escaping should not be too much of a problem.

Conversely, Grove leading half of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters would allow Maleko more confidence in taking action.

"Alright! If that’s the case, shall I escape towards the Reincarnation Star Cluster?" Grove asked.

Maleko nodded.

This way, if he could successfully control a fleet of Large Battleships, he could bring Grove back when they returned to the Reincarnation Star Cluster.

After the two successfully reached an agreement, just as Maleko was about to change direction and leave, his expression suddenly changed.

"This is bad, they’re blocking our way!"

Grove’s expression also transformed as they both sensed two powerful auras approaching from the front.

"Quick, retreat to the other side!"

Maleko couldn’t figure out how those two two hundred and twenty level Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters had managed to circle around and come in front of them.

But clearly, this was not the time to ponder such questions.

They all quickly changed direction and flew at full speed, trying to avoid the two powerful beings from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe who were intercepting them.

However, they were horrified by the outcome.

Just half a minute after changing direction, two more powerful auras approached them.

Without a doubt, the Tree-Dwelling Tribe had formed a siege around them.

“It’s the Large Battleships. They must be using the Large Battleships along with strong fighters skilled in tracking and searching techniques to intercept us on our inevitable path,” Grove was the first to realize the reason.

But understanding the reason was of no use now.

What mattered most was how to escape the encirclement of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters.

“We can only take a gamble! Continue at full speed, and when we meet them, do not get entangled. I will use the power of reincarnation to weaken their strength. You use your speed to lead me around them,” Maleko instructed.

Grove nodded heavily.

“Shadow King, we should go find that Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter who is skilled in tracking and searching techniques,” Yi Chen also transmitted the message to the Shadow King at the same time.

After several hours, he had successfully drained all of Maleko’s luck.

Maleko, Grove, and the strong fighters from the Reincarnation Tribe within the blue gem all had their luck cut off and were certain to die.

There was naturally no need to worry about them anymore.

As for the resources and treasures in the hands of Maleko and the others, they could temporarily stay with Bunier and the others as well.

In Yi Chen’s eyes, whether it was this group of strong fighters from the Reincarnation Tribe or this group of strong fighters from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe led by Bunier, the resources and treasures they brought would eventually end up in his hands.

“Alright!”

The Shadow King immediately took Yi Chen and departed at full speed.

“This is bad, it’s Lieka!”

From behind, as the two sides drew closer, Grove’s expression changed dramatically after sensing the identities of the two Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters.

He did not expect such terrible luck.

As a member of the foreign affairs department, he was well aware of who the top fighters were among the same level.

Lieka was one of them.

“Whoever it is, let’s proceed with the plan!” Maleko gritted his teeth.

He knew very well that it was too late to turn back and find a weaker team now.

Even if the opponent was just a top fighter among the two hundred and twenty level strong fighters, or even a two hundred and thirty level strong fighter, they had to force their way through in this situation.

Ten thousand kilometers, nine thousand kilometers, eight thousand kilometers…

Just as the distance between the two sides closed to five thousand kilometers, Maleko suddenly erupted in energy.

A dazzling earth-colored light erupted from Lieka and another powerful being from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe.

In the next moment, both Lieka and the other powerful being felt their strength realm rapidly decline.

They immediately began to draw energy to forcibly expel the power of reincarnation from their bodies.

It wasn’t until their strength realm had recovered to about ninety percent of its best state that they could no longer sustain it.

At the same time, Grove, still under the suppression of the power of reincarnation and suffering from backlash, suddenly accelerated to loop around next to Lieka and the other powerful being.

“Want to break through?” Lieka coldly smiled.

He saw through their intentions.

Maleko used the power of reincarnation to affect their strength realms, resulting in a decrease in speed.

Then, Grove planned to take advantage of his speed to get around them.

This plan was indeed clever.

If it were slightly weaker Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters, they might have been able to get away.

But he was different.

As one of the top strong fighters at level 220 in the foreign affairs department, he also possessed many powerful treasures.

He couldn’t intercept the escaping duo with speed, but he could with the powerful treasures.

Lieka swung his giant branches.

In the next moment, a large, crystal-clear pearl flew out from inside his body.

Immediately, a transparent wall appeared right in the path that Grove and Maleko had to take.

This transparent wall spanned thousands of kilometers in both length and width, and it continued to extend and expand.

“Damn it!” Grove and Maleko were both startled and had no way to counter it.

They could only grit their teeth and charge toward the transparent wall.

Boom!

As they reached it, Grove swung his giant branches and struck the transparent wall.

With a loud bang, the transparent wall trembled slightly but showed no signs of collapsing.

This is bad!

A troubling thought arose in both Grove and Maleko’s minds.

If they could break through the transparent wall with one strike, they might waste some time and risk getting entangled by Lieka and the other strong fighter from the Tree-Dwelling Tribe, but there would still be a chance to escape.

If they couldn’t break the wall, things would become serious.
