Chapter 257: Pressure Overwhelms
Ketes moved at incredible speed.
He fully harnessed the power of the laws of space.
Dense roots waved like countless tentacles.
In an instant, he crossed the vast expanse of starry sky, surpassing countless planets.
It took him just over an hour to reach the edge of the cosmic storm zone.
Then, without hesitation, he entered the cosmic storm zone.
Inside the cosmic storm zone, the chaotic and furious energy storms could tear even the hardest alloys into dust.
Yet, they had no effect on the energy shield surrounding Ketes.
In the midst of countless asteroid fragments within the cosmic storm zone, Ketes’s speed remained unaffected.
The powerful scanners of the space fortress within the cosmic storm zone could not even capture his movement trajectory.
What was deemed terrifying within this star cluster, where even the strongest from various tribes needed to tread carefully, appeared to the strong of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe as merely a small stream one could easily step across.
Upon entering the safe area at the center of the cosmic storm zone and passing through tens of thousands of stars, the exile planet came into view.
Ketes’s unmatched Perception Ability rapidly spread, instantly enveloping the entire exile planet as he began to search for Yi Chen’s whereabouts.
…
In the center of the island,
within the flying treasure,
Yi Chen had already broken through to the Fifth Stage of the Crossing Tribulation Stage and was advancing towards the Sixth Stage.
A strong sense of crisis suddenly surged in his heart.
It caused him to open his eyes wide.
In the next second, his divine consciousness sensed a powerful Perception Ability that suddenly appeared.
This formidable Perception Ability almost instantly detected his divine consciousness and locked onto the flying treasure.
Yi Chen’s brow furrowed tightly.
After breaking through to the Fifth Stage of the Crossing Tribulation Stage, his divine consciousness now spread over a radius of five hundred kilometers.
Yet, he could not sense the presence of the newcomer.
However, judging from the intensity of the other party’s Perception Ability, their strength exceeded his understanding.
With his current strength, he had no possibility of resistance.
This felt a bit unreal.
Could it be that the newcomer was not from the Angelic Beings and bore no hostility?
Yi Chen found it difficult to comprehend.
According to his fortunes, by all logic, he should never encounter such a terrifying enemy, one that offered no chance for resistance or even counterattack.
Someone like Bai Ruo Xin, possessing purple fortune, would be considered the favored child of destiny, with luck beyond measure.
If there were no accidents, the dual effects of fate and causality would almost ensure that he would not encounter an unbeatable enemy.
His foes, bringing resources, would appear at the right moment, one by one, as standard practice.
His fortune surpassed that of any favored child of destiny by two super levels.
With his vision and understanding, he could not even grasp how high the golden fortune of the Little Gold Ball could reach.
He could not comprehend how high his own fortune could climb.
With such a level of fortune, encountering an unbeatable enemy was something he could not believe, even if it was the last thing he heard.
Based on his deductions, regardless of whether the newcomers were from the Angelic Beings, it was highly unlikely that they came to kill him.
He decided to take a gamble.
“Bai Ruo Xin, control the flying treasure and inform the members of the Intelligence Organization to leave this island immediately.”
To prevent himself from being affected by any misfortune that might befall Bai Ruo Xin and the members of the Intelligence Organization, Yi Chen transmitted his thoughts to her.
He then waved his hand and grasped the Little Gold Ball.
He stepped away from the flying treasure.
Even though the flying treasure had a defensive formation, in the face of such powerful entities, it made no difference whether it was there or not.
“Got it!”
Bai Ruo Xin reacted very quickly.
Although she did not know what was happening, she immediately controlled the flying treasure to head towards the gathering point of the Intelligence Organization and notified the members to evacuate.
Once the members of the Intelligence Organization started to retreat, Bai Ruo Xin took control of the flying treasure and returned to Yi Chen’s side.
“Are you trying to be clever, leaving only when I tell you to?”
Yi Chen felt a mix of amusement and frustration.
“Showing loyalty at a critical moment is what truly matters.”
Bai Ruo Xin replied lightly.
Yi Chen chose not to say anything more, extending his divine consciousness to the maximum as he waited quietly for the arrival of the powerful entity.
The feeling of life and death being in someone else’s hands was incredibly unsettling for him.
However, given that his strength was inferior, no matter how many grievances he had, he could only endure.
He thought he might have to wait a long time.
Yet, unexpectedly, it was merely the blink of an eye.
A towering tree appeared in the sky above the island.
This towering tree had a trunk that reached over one hundred thirty meters in height.
Its dense branches and leaves spread wide, shading the sun like a giant green mountain.
The countless roots, resembling innumerable tentacles, instilled a sense of awe and fear.
A terrifying pressure swept over Yi Chen.
Even with the strength of his divine consciousness and willpower, he became drenched in sweat, with faint veins visible on his forehead.
……
“What is happening? How did Yi Chen suddenly appear outside the flying treasure, and then in the blink of an eye, a large tree-like creature appears above the island?”
“Oh my goodness, look at the scanner’s data! The speed of that large tree can’t even be measured; it looks like it just appeared out of nowhere!”
“This is impossible! Even the strongest beings from various tribes can’t reach this level of speed!”
In the live room, all the viewers were in a frenzy.
Yi Chen’s sudden appearance had already left everyone astonished.
What shocked them even more was that according to the scanner’s readings, the purity of the energy within Yi Chen could very likely reach level 95.
In just a few months, Yi Chen had achieved another significant breakthrough.
Before the viewers could marvel at this, an even stranger scene suddenly unfolded.
A towering tree suddenly appeared in the sky above the island.
Even the scanners on the Large Battleship could not capture any internal data about this towering tree.
Everything was blocked by a layer of energy.
Within the range of the Large Battleship’s scanners, it could not even detect the movement trajectory of this large tree.
It either could teleport or was moving so fast that the Large Battleship couldn’t keep up.
This completely exceeded the understanding of the federation’s citizens.
Because even the strongest beings from various tribes could not possibly achieve such terrifying speed.
If the strongest beings really could move at this level, the human federation’s fleet would just be decoration.
The Large Battleship’s scanners could not capture the true location of the opponent.
Even if tens of thousands of ships surrounded it, they would not withstand a single blow.
What frightened the public even more was that this tree was clearly heading toward Yi Chen.
And looking at Yi Chen’s state, he was undoubtedly under terrifying pressure.
“It’s over, it’s over! Given Yi Chen’s condition, he can’t resist this at all!”
“Could it be that the Angelic Beings have summoned a powerful entity to kill Yi Chen?”
“Don’t panic, everyone! It should not be here to kill Yi Chen. The Angelic Beings could not summon such a powerful entity, and if they truly wanted to kill Yi Chen, they wouldn’t just use pressure to oppress him.”
“The appearance of this large tree had no warning at all. Heaven help us, I hope it’s not here to kill Yi Chen.”
“If Yi Chen dies, our path to evolution as humanity will be completely cut off. Even all the Chaos Techniques, potion making techniques, and barrier setups he has created would vanish into thin air.”
The viewers in the live room felt tense, their breaths growing rapid.
No one knew that this towering tree had been summoned by the heads of the Federal Parliament.
At this very moment, beside the leaders of the Federal Parliament and the Federation Military, there was a towering tree.
However, for some reason, that towering tree had inadvertently lost its physical form without gaining any benefits.
