Chapter 752: Retreat and Escape

“Not good, the barriers are about to break!”

Maleko felt anxious.

He sensed that the powerful binding treasures were on the verge of collapsing.

However, Grove and the others clearly didn’t have enough time to eliminate all the Energy Auras.

“Retreat, everyone, hurry up and retreat!”

Left with no choice, he issued the retreat command.

Grove and the others were stunned for a moment, then they reluctantly complied.

All the strong fighters from the Reincarnation Tribe and the Tree-Dwelling Tribe quickly entered the gem that Grove had placed into the Space Stone.

At the same time, Maleko retracted the powerful binding treasure.

They moved at full speed to escape this Deserted Star.

Right now, all they could do was to evade the pursuit.

Then they would take a gamble, hoping that the two hundred level Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter was not skilled in tracking and searching techniques.

Otherwise, they would have to devise another plan.

With the blockade of the powerful binding treasures lost, Lieka and the others’ perception range suddenly expanded.

The devastation on the Deserted Star fueled their furious anger.

Their army was completely wiped out.

They had arrived too late.

Over fifty thousand reinforcements, including over a hundred two hundred and ten level strong fighters and over a thousand two hundred level strong fighters, were all annihilated, not a single one left.

“Damn Reincarnation Tribe, damn Grove, I will kill all of you!”

Lieka and the other two hundred and twenty level Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters roared in rage.

Bunier and Blake looked troubled, but they remained much calmer than Lieka and the others.

There was no way around it; they were used to it.

After facing various unexpected incidents and losses, they had adapted and could find a reasonable explanation.

That was, the star cluster and the Tree-Dwelling Tribe simply did not get along.

As Lieka and the other seven two hundred and twenty level strong fighters charged after Maleko and Grove, the relatively calm Bunier and Blake quickly sent a message to the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter skilled in tracking and searching techniques.

They instructed him to stay on the Deserted Star to gather the Energy Auras of the Reincarnation Tribe and the undercover agents while collecting all the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s Space Stones.

The Space Stones from over a hundred two hundred and ten level strong fighters, over a thousand two hundred level strong fighters, and fifty thousand high-end combatants would be a massive treasure if gathered together.

Once this two hundred level Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter returned, they would follow Lieka in pursuit.

Clearly, this decision was both right and wrong.

It was right because, even if they didn’t catch up with Maleko and Grove, the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters would quickly provide their whereabouts and coordinates.

It was wrong because, although Bunier and Blake remained calm, their thoughts were entirely focused on Maleko and Grove.

They forgot about the Shadow King.

In their eyes, the Shadow King shouldn’t happen to come and join the excitement at this time.

After all, according to their deductions, the Shadow King’s stealth techniques should be unable to evade the sensing of two hundred and twenty level strong fighters.

Not detecting the Shadow King’s presence meant he was not nearby.

Thus, the chance that the Shadow King simply happened to arrive here was extremely slim.

However, they were unaware that the Shadow King’s current stealth technique could not be sensed even by strong fighters at the level of two hundred and thirty, even at close range.

The Shadow King and Yi Chen had been on the Deserted Star all along, drawing Energy Aura while watching the chaos unfold.

"Your Majesty, what shall we do next?"

The Shadow King sensed that the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter skilled in tracking and searching techniques had stayed behind and couldn’t help but ask.

"Continue the pursuit!"

Yi Chen didn’t hesitate much.

The Tree-Dwelling Tribe was on high alert, not wanting various tribes to learn about the existence of the human federation, nor wanting strong fighters from other tribes to appear in this star cluster.

He also did not want strong fighters from various tribes to come and join the chaos in this star cluster.

Even though his current strength realm, along with his grasp of high-end combatants, made him unafraid of two hundred and thirty level strong fighters,

the various tribes treated this star cluster as their battleground. This could cause damage and might attract strong fighters at the level of two hundred and forty.

Therefore, his current goal aligned with that of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe: to eliminate the entire Reincarnation Tribe team.

He firmly refused to allow the Reincarnation Tribe to control a fleet of Large Battleships and escape back to their tribe.

As for the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter skilled in tracking and searching techniques and the vast amounts of Space Stones, they could deal with it later.

After all, the Shadow King had already collected the Energy Aura of all the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters.

"Alright!"

The Shadow King answered succinctly and then followed closely behind Lieka and the others, pursuing them.

With his tenfold enhancement of time control, although his realm was only two hundred and ten, his speed far exceeded that of Lieka and the others.

In just a moment, he caught up with Maleko and Grove, who were fleeing at full speed.

Then, he maintained a speed comparable to theirs.

Yi Chen then activated the Luck Technique again, continuing to draw from the little Energy Aura Grove had left.

As they chased each other, within just over ten minutes, Grove’s Energy Aura was completely drained.

Yi Chen then shifted his target to Maleko.

After another half hour, the pursuing force behind them began to feel anxious.

"Damn, the Energy Aura of Grove and the strong fighters from the Reincarnation Tribe is getting weaker. If we keep chasing like this, we might end up completely losing them."

Lieka felt both angry and anxious.

"It’s fine, I’ve instructed Reyes to return to the Deserted Star to collect the Space Stones and gather their Energy Auras. He should have fully collected their Energy Auras by now,"

Bunier replied calmly. "I’ll notify Reyes to try tracking the coordinates of these two two hundred and twenty level strong fighters."

"If their coordinates match, perhaps… we can surround them ahead of time and capture them all."

Lieka and the other two hundred and twenty level Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters’ eyes brightened.

They finally realized that, in their heated state, they had actually forgotten about the strong fighter skilled in tracking and searching techniques.

Fortunately, Bunier remained clear-headed.

As Bunier said, once they confirmed that Maleko and Grove were together, they would definitely have a chance to catch them all.

From the aura they left behind, it seemed that these two had made quite a mistake:

they overlooked the Large Battleships of the human federation.

They could use the Space Jump System of the Large Battleships to ambush the two on their unavoidable path.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, Bunier immediately contacted the strong fighter left behind on the Deserted Star, informing him to track the location of Maleko and Grove using their Energy Auras.

Maleko clearly still intended to take everyone and escape, not activating the hidden aura treasure.

After confirming the coordinates of the two, Bunier kept in touch with the Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighter to provide real-time coordinates of the two.

Blake then began contacting Lu Qingxian, the chairman of the Parliament, asking him to inform the Federation Military to dispatch Large Battleships to gather ahead.

After chasing for about half an hour, Bunier and the other Tree-Dwelling Tribe strong fighters sensed the presence of the Large Battleships.

They immediately divided into five groups, with two strong fighters forming one group to continue pursuing Maleko and Grove from behind.

The other four groups entered the Large Battleships.
