Chapter 826
by fanqienovelChapter 826: Still Being Followed
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Yi Chen waved his hand, slicing through the Sword Energy and breaking all the attacks of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe elders.
In an instant, the elders of the three races had already charged in.
However, with the control over time providing a ten times the flow of time boost, by the time the three races’ elders arrived, Yi Chen had already used the Map of Mountains and Rivers to bring all twenty million soldiers of humanity inside it.
With a thought, Yi Chen enveloped his flying treasure with his divine consciousness and instantly appeared in outer space.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The attacks from the three races’ elders continuously struck where Yi Chen had been.
Energy shields formed one after another.
“Damn it, he escaped!”
“If only we had been a little faster, he would have been trapped for sure!”
The three races’ elders were deeply frustrated, secretly annoyed that they hadn’t anticipated Yi Chen might arrange for the retreat of twenty million soldiers from humanity.
If they had thought ahead and made preparations, perhaps they could have trapped Yi Chen in the energy shield and resolved the issue all at once.
Little did they know, even if they managed to trap Yi Chen in the energy shield, it would be of no use.
Yi Chen’s Teleportation Technique could instantaneously penetrate all energy shields.
The Shadow King and the others had been brought out by Yi Chen using his Teleportation Technique.
“Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe, you should come with us!”
The Second Elder of the Time Tribe looked at the Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe.
“And what about this side…”
The Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe hesitated to speak.
“The eastern human army has retreated, and the remaining forces of the Great Flame Empire are not worth worrying about. You only need to assign a few strong members to lead your army,” the Second Elder of the Time Tribe explained. “In fact, without the eastern human army, the forces of the Great Flame Empire are easy to defeat; their numbers cannot compare to your allied forces. Unless something goes wrong, they will likely retreat on their own. If you order an attack now, you could easily eliminate the Great Flame Empire’s army.”
The Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe nodded but did not say what he would do.
He planned to let the strong members remaining with the army arrange for defense and hold their position.
It was not that he didn’t trust the Second Elder of the Time Tribe’s words, but rather he believed them.
Launching an attack now might indeed lead to an easy victory over the forces of the Great Flame Empire.
But what would happen after defeating them?
The Great Flame Empire had categorized conquered races into various ranks.
The longer the resistance lasted and the more intense it became, the greater the losses for the Great Flame Empire, resulting in lower ranks for those conquered.
If the elder team of the three races succeeded in their plan this time, he would undoubtedly issue the order to annihilate the Great Flame Empire’s army.
But the problem was, all the hopeful expectations had fallen flat.
He originally thought that with the three dominant races joining forces, secretly targeting the Great Flame Empire, there was no way they could fail.
He believed this would earn him a powerful ally, gaining significant favors from the three dominant races.
However, the outcome was completely beyond his expectations.
Even though the three dominant races worked together in secret and dispatched over a hundred level 240 elders, their various ambushes still ended in failure, achieving nothing.
Not only that, but they also lost thirteen level 240 elders.
The Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe only understood at that moment why the Great Flame Empire could instill a sense of crisis in the three dominant races, even uniting in secret against them.
He didn’t know if the three dominant races could defeat the Great Flame Empire.
What he did know was that until the results were clear, it was better not to offend the Great Flame Empire.
He had to leave a way out for the Cracked Shell Tribe.
Thus, the Great Flame Empire’s army absolutely could not be destroyed.
The elders of the three races could roughly guess the unspoken thoughts of the Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe but said nothing more.
The Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe waved his hand, and an energy shield instantly formed around everyone, enclosing them.
He then took out a powerful space-type treasure, beginning to draw in each strong fighter one by one.
In outer space, Yi Chen concentrated, and the flying treasure instantly shrank to its smallest size, appearing among the crowd using his Teleportation Technique.
He attached himself to a Time Tribe elder.
The result surprised him.
When the powerful space-type treasure absorbed the Time Tribe elder into it, it could actually repel him and the flying treasure.
Yi Chen frowned slightly.
He hadn’t expected that the Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe would possess such a treasure.
Moreover, he was so cautious to prevent Yi Chen from using his stealth techniques to track them.
Not only did they quickly set up an energy shield before leaving to block his approach, but they also used a powerful treasure with that capability to stop him from secretly lurking among the elder group.
Right now, he had only drawn in the luck of two elders, which was far from enough.
Meanwhile, after pulling all the elders and the Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe into the interior of the space-type treasure, the Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe waved his hand.
More energy shields continuously formed, overlapping one another.
The Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe then followed into the powerful treasure.
Afterward, from inside the treasure, he controlled it to pass through layer after layer of energy shields, arriving at the center of the innermost energy shield.
Yi Chen’s eyes lit up.
He understood how the Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe planned to escape.
Without any hesitation, he immediately wrapped his divine consciousness around the flying treasure and instantly appeared at the center of the innermost energy shield.
Just as he expected, the Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe began gathering energy, quickly tearing open a spatial rift large enough for him to pass through.
Then, taking the space-type treasure with him, he entered the spatial rift.
With another wave of his hand, the spatial rift disappeared from sight.
The entire process was completed in an instant.
This was a plan prepared by the three races’ elders specifically against Yi Chen and the Shadow King’s stealth techniques and capabilities.
The space-type treasure ensured that no matter how proficient Yi Chen or the Shadow King were in their stealth techniques, they wouldn’t be able to follow them.
Using layer upon layer of energy shields to block them off made it impossible for Yi Chen and the Shadow King to attach themselves to the space-type treasure.
By tearing open a spatial rift within the energy shields, quickly leaving, and destroying the rift, they could completely shake off Yi Chen and the Shadow King.
Unfortunately, the plan still had a flaw.
The three races’ elders did not know that Yi Chen’s Teleportation Technique could penetrate energy shields.
At the moment the Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe left through the spatial rift, Yi Chen also controlled the flying treasure to exit through the rift.
“Let’s lay low for a while!”
The Second Elder of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe released all the elders and the Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe from the space-type treasure.
To avoid exposing their hiding place, the level 230 and level 220 strong fighters, along with the leaders and strong fighters affiliated with the Cracked Shell Tribe, remained inside the treasure.
The Second Elder of the Time Tribe and the Second Elder of the Reincarnation Tribe nodded helplessly.
After the failed plan, which even led to the capture of thirteen elders, they could only hide and wait for new opportunities to arise.
None of them knew that at that moment, the strongest member of humanity, Yi Chen, was right by their side.
As the three races’ elders and the Leader of the Cracked Shell Tribe began to meditate and prepare to stay hidden for a while, Yi Chen resumed using the Luck Technique, starting to draw in the luck of the third elder.
