Chapter 818: All Captured

Yi Chen focused his thoughts.

He wrapped the flying treasure in his divine consciousness.

The Teleportation Technique activated.

In the next second, he instantly appeared beside the level 230 strong fighter.

His divine consciousness, which could only vaguely sense the presence of the other, became incredibly clear due to the close distance.

‘There shouldn’t be just one!’

He noticed this level 230 strong fighter cautiously flying toward the life planet where the Great Flame Empire’s headquarters was located while taking out a communication stone to maintain contact with someone.

Yi Chen immediately understood that a whole team was likely coming.

This one in front of him could be the one with the strongest stealth techniques.

After considering his options, he decided to first locate this invading team.

For one, the level 230 strong fighter was slowing down even more to avoid being discovered, so there was no rush.

For another, even if they reached the Great Flame Empire’s base, they definitely wouldn’t attack in a short time.

Only by dealing with the entire team could he achieve a lasting solution.

Eliminating this leading strong fighter would only cause the others connected through the communication stone to escape at the first opportunity.

He wrapped his divine consciousness around the flying treasure and began to teleport in the direction of the level 230 strong fighter.

In the next second, he appeared one hundred light years away.

This level 230 strong fighter was now within one hundred light years of him, successfully sensed by his divine consciousness.

Based on his estimate, even though others might also be skilled in stealth techniques, they wouldn’t escape his divine consciousness as they entered within one hundred light years.

As he suspected, after carefully sensing again and confirming there were no strong fighters present, he teleported forward another one hundred light years.

After a few successive teleports, he successfully located the remaining eleven level 230 strong fighters with his divine consciousness.

They were all strong fighters proficient in stealth techniques, but their abilities were not as strong as the first.

Compared to the first one, they were slightly weaker.

If they advanced alone, they would definitely be detected by Yi Chen’s divine consciousness if they entered within a radius of one hundred fifty light years.

Having successfully found the hideout of this team and knowing they were within his divine consciousness coverage, he could return with just one teleport.

Things would be easier from there.

Yi Chen focused again and instantly appeared at the Great Flame Empire’s base with the flying treasure.

His divine consciousness spread outward and quickly sensed a level 230 strong fighter over fifty light years away.

He teleported once again.

Yi Chen soon appeared beside this level 230 strong fighter.

Immortal power surged into the treasured artifact.

In the next second, the level 230 strong fighter was horrified to discover a huge difference between the laws of time on him and those in the outside world.

His heart sank.

He had been cautious, but now he immediately sensed something was wrong.

Without a second thought, he turned to escape.

However, even the level 240 strong fighters would surely die at this moment, let alone someone at level 230.

As Yi Chen used his treasured artifact to greatly slow the flow of time, streams of Sword Energy slashed toward his foe.

At such close range, even without the artifact’s time-slowing effect, the level 230 strong fighter could not evade.

The first Sword Energy drove straight through, shattering the protective shield on the level 230 strong fighter and leaving a deep sword wound visible to the bone.

The second Sword Energy struck and severely injured him.

In an instant, the level 230 strong fighter’s body was left in tatters.

Yi Chen waved his hand.

The Binding Immortal Rope flew out of his storage ring, quickly binding the heavily injured and defenseless level 230 strong fighter.

Yi Chen then took him and instantly returned to the flying treasure.

Wrapping the flying treasure with his divine consciousness, he used his teleportation ability to jump hundreds of light years, arriving near the invading team’s location.

The eleven level 230 strong fighters remained where they were.

“What’s going on?”

The one responsible for contacting the first strong fighter frowned.

“What happened?”

The companions beside him could not help but ask.

“We haven’t been in contact for two to three seconds.”

The strong fighter explained.

According to their agreement, both sides needed to maintain continuous communication, ensuring safety.

But now, not hearing anything for two to three seconds violated their agreement.

The other strong fighters’ expressions turned serious.

This likely meant there was an emergency on the other side; otherwise, they wouldn’t go silent for even a couple of seconds.

Could it be they were discovered?

The eleven level 230 strong fighters began to hesitate, wanting to retreat to a safer area.

None of them knew that Yi Chen had already arrived before them, right behind one of the level 230 strong fighters.

Just as they began to falter, Yi Chen assessed the power gap and launched his attack.

He instantly left the flying treasure, unleashing a series of Sword Energy at the level 230 strong fighter in front of him.

Caught off guard, the level 230 strong fighter had no ability to resist.

His protective shield was shattered in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, he was severely injured.

The Binding Immortal Rope flew out from the flying treasure, quickly extending to bind the second heavily injured level 230 strong fighter.

Meanwhile, after dispatching one, Yi Chen used his teleportation ability to appear behind the third level 230 strong fighter.

He continued to slash with his immortal sword.

“Enemy attack! It’s the strongest member of humanity! He has reached level 230!”

“Not only has he surpassed expectations, but his speed and reactions are something even level 240 strong fighters cannot match!”

“Damn it! How did they find our hiding place?”

The remaining level 230 strong fighters were thrown into chaos.

Without a moment’s hesitation, they began to scatter in all directions.

The elders of the three dominant races had confidence that even if they encountered Yi Chen, they could escape.

But these level 230 strong fighters certainly lacked that confidence.

Unfortunately, even fleeing was of no use.

Yi Chen had calculated their speed and was sure he could handle them all alone, which was why the Shadow King and the others didn’t join the action from the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Using his teleportation ability, he appeared unpredictably behind one level 230 strong fighter after another.

His Heaven-Slashing Technique was powerful enough that just two strikes could severely injure a level 230 strong fighter, leaving them unable to fight back.

In a matter of breaths, all eleven level 230 strong fighters were heavily injured and captured, strung together by the Binding Immortal Rope and taken into the flying treasure.

The twelve heavily injured level 230 strong fighters looked ashen.

They could only hope that Yi Chen would treat them as he did with the elder team from the three races and use them as a bargaining chip to extract a ransom, thus saving themselves.

The three dominant races had an agreement that if they were captured, and if Yi Chen used them as leverage to demand a ransom, they would spare no effort to retrieve them.
