Swallowed Star

Chapter 1252: Block Him!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

How big was the Boat of Mausoleum?

A group of super great beings with North True Star Master as their leader had been keeping the other party from East Emperor Holy Land under close watch. Not even one dared to let his guard down; even without other various means of detection, they could see the Boat of Mausoleum in the distance with their naked eyes!

“The Boat of Mausoleum has disappeared!”

“Disappeared? It was here just a moment ago, and the Boat of Mausoleum has suddenly disappeared!”

“Hurry, hurry, hurry. Milky Way Horde Leader Luo Feng must have acted. Everyone, be mindful of every single corner. Do not let him get away.”

North True Star Master and the other ten universe masters were on high alert. From their position, although they could see a big object like the Boat of Mausoleum without any visual aids, Luo Feng was now on board his crimson tower, which was extremely small—so small that it was impossible for the human eye to detect it. As for their other detection methods, they had not dared to use any of these to cover any region within the Boat of Mausoleum before. Because they were all afraid of incurring the wrath of that Duan Dong River.

“All of you better keep your eyes open.” North True Star Master tensed up right away and started giving orders. “You cannot be the least bit careless. The moment anyone discovers any palace type true treasure or any flying objects, you have to stop them! Do not ever let Luo Feng escape.”

“Understood!”

“Understood!”

One by one, the universe masters replied.

“Ancestor has already reminded us countless times!” North True Star Master shouted. “This matter is of utmost importance. And at domains even further out from the peripheral area, other groups of powers from Purple Moon Holy Land and the first reincarnation era are all laying ambush. Everyone wants to be the one to catch hold of that heir, so we must be careful not to let the other groups of power gain any advantage over us.”

“North True, we all have supreme true treasures throughout Flame Ice Region. None of the other groups of powers are as well-equipped as us. How are they going to fight us?”

******

All were triggered with the same discovery!

The lofty Boat of Mausoleum that was suspended in midair had suddenly disappeared. Not only East Emperor Holy Land realized this, but one by one, the other groups of powers from Purple Moon Holy Land and first reincarnation era—even the various other groups of powers that were all waiting in ambush further away—started to realize what had happened. The various groups of powers that were originally as peaceful as calm waters were, at that moment, all starting to stir with excitement like bubbling water about to reach boiling point.

“The Boat of Mausoleum has disappeared!”

“The heir is about to make an appearance.”

“This is our clan’s final hope of transcending reincarnation! Catch that heir!”

“No matter how great a potential this heir has, no matter how big a threat he is! Just like how any great being who wants to grow up needs time, even if this heir has received the inheritance, there is no way his power can improve by leaps and bounds in such a short time! Once doomsday arrives, all of our clan will be exterminated. In the face of doomsday, nothing else matters! There is no need to bother about whether we are up against East Emperor Holy Land or Purple Moon Holy Land… Holy land universe, so what? Just grab it!”

******

“This is our final hope.”

First True Master, Third True Master, Fourth True Master, Fifth True Master, and Sixth True Master of the Divine Eye Clan looked at one another. Since the competition for the inheritance began, two from their group had been annihilated. Now, there were only five true masters left in the whole Divine Eye Clan, and this time around, for the sake of catching that heir, all five of them had gathered. However, gathering too many gifted talents in the same place and at the same time could bring devastating results. Having already suffered a great loss, the Divine Eye Clan was careful to maintain a low profile this time around.

“Let’s lay low and watch first. We shall just let Purple Moon Holy Land and East Emperor Holy Land battle it out! And the other groups of powers from the first reincarnation era… The fight for the heir is not that simple.”

“True. To be able to receive the inheritance from the pulse of Duan Dong River, that heir must have great survival means. To catch hold of him is not easy. We shall observe the situation first and find the perfect opportunity. Then all five of us will act together. With our combined power, we will catch that heir in one swift move!”

“Yes.”

Five pairs of eyes were ignited with blazing light. This time, it would be a battle major enough to change their destiny.

******

At one point in time, the entire Flame Ice region was raging like a storm with various groups of powers laying ambush. Among them, the majority did not even know who the heir was. But that did not matter to them, all they wanted, was to catch that heir!

“If Blue Blood Knight is the one appearing, then we will catch Blue Blood Knight. If Milky Way Luo Feng appears, we will catch Milky Way Luo Feng.”

This was everyone’s plan.

******

Luo Feng long knew that a gigantic net was laid to ambush him the moment he made his way out into the outside world; his human race had warned him in advance and told him to stay inside the Boat of Mausoleum for the time being if he did not have the confidence of surviving. But Luo Feng had skills and guts, so he was filled with confidence.

“Gigantic net or not, I will break through it all.”

The crimson tower transformed into a stream of light and advanced at high speed!

******

The miniature crimson tower was so tiny that it could easily escape the naked eye.

“This… flying palace! I discovered a flying palace! It is that crimson tower! It’s Luo Feng’s!” Mi Ya Master from East Emperor Holy Land immediately transmitted his sighting to the others. “He is heading toward my region now.”

North True Star Master was greatly delighted and immediately transmitted his reply. “Mi Ya, I am rushing over now.”

“Great.”

Mi Ya Master also transformed into a streak of light without further delay and advanced along the same route to welcome the oncoming tower.

Hong! Hong! Hong!

North True Star Master manipulated his supreme true treasure and advanced at a speed that was so fast it exceeded the limit of the universe laws. The acceleration was 1,000 times that of light speed, then increased to 10,000 times, then up to 100,000 times. In a split second, it soared all the way up. And yet Luo Feng merely maintained his speed at 100 times light speed.

Mi Ya Master had yet to meet up with Luo Feng. North True Star Master had already arrived!

A voice was transmitted to the crimson tower right away: “Milky Way Horde Leader, how about making a trip to my holy land with me? East Emperor Holy Land Ancestor will be most pleased to meet you.”

“Mm?”

Within the control room inside the crimson tower, Luo Feng stood with a stone blade on his back as his gaze penetrated through the obstruction posed by the walls of Star Tower to look at the outside world.

“East Emperor Holy Land?” Luo Feng whispered. “Truly worthy of being a top power. Still the first to act. That must be North True Star Master. I heard he has been obstructing various other groups within the Boat of Mausoleum for quite some time.”

“North True Star Master!” Luo Feng communicated right away via voice transmission. “I have some urgent matters to tend to back at the original universe. After I am back from there, I will make my way to East Emperor Holy Land. It won’t be too long at all. What do you think of my suggestion?”

“Seems like even to my holy land ancestor, Milky Way Horde Leader is not intending to show due respect,” North True Star Master said politely, even though he was sneering on the inside. Return to the original universe? If Luo Feng truly set foot in the original universe, all other parties would not be able to enter. Then it would become impossible to catch him.

“Is this the way East Emperor Holy Land invites its guest? By forcing the invitation upon them?” Luo Feng was still very composed and confident.

“Humph! Then blame me not.”

North True Star Master manipulated that gigantic, black, polyhedral sphere and parked it at a spot above the crimson tower. Then one of the surfaces of the gigantic black sphere suddenly cracked open to reveal a large, empty hole. An incredibly strong suction force acted and pulled on Star Tower without warning, attempting to forcibly suck Star Tower into the hole.

“Keep!” North True Star Master said, manipulating it to the very best of his abilities.

“Humph!”

The crimson tower under the attack of the suction force suddenly vanished into thin air. In its place was an even smaller Boat of Mausoleum.

A moment prior, when Luo Feng met with the attack of that suction force, he was unwilling to put Star Tower at any risk. Even though Star Tower was a supreme true treasure and should have been competent enough to ward off such attacks, Star Tower required his godly power to activate it. With the gigantic net that was set outside to besiege him, relying on Star Tower alone might be too tiring. Whereas with an automaton type like the Boat of Mausoleum, things would be much easier.

The Boat of Mausoleum had also been remodeled by Duan Dong River. Regardless of what supreme true treasure was used, trying to take it down by force was out of the question. Also, it only required a little consumption of Luo Feng’s godly power. Then he could use the various energies from the Boat of Mausoleum to activate it. Everything was simple, yet the power he could execute was strong.

******

“The Boat of Mausoleum!” North True Star Master looked down and saw a vessel appearing. His expression changed instantly. This was a special Boat of Mausoleum that had undergone Duan Dong River’s remodeling, and it was where the Divine Eye Clan’s Second True Master and Seventh True Master had met their ends.

“Surrender to me.” North True Star Master tried his best to make use of the suction force of his supreme true treasure to take the Boat of Mausoleum into captivity.

Hong!

The suction force was useless, whereas the Boat of Mausoleum started to expand with a rumble and grew insanely big.

Previously, the Boat of Mausoleum was the size of a fist, but in the blink of an eye, it became a massive vessel around 100 billion kilometers long. And this massive Boat of Mausoleum started to take flight, advancing in a mighty manner, paying no heed and showing no response to the suction power that North True Star Master was executing over it.

“Not good.” North True Star Master was aware that it would be impossible for him to try to consume this Boat of Mausoleum with his suction power. “Block him!”

Hong!

North True Star Master continued to manipulate the gigantic black sphere and rammed into the Boat of Mausoleum with a thunderous boom. How fast was he flying that black sphere? The Boat of Mausoleum was merely maintaining its speed at 100 times of light speed; there was no way it could evade the collision. Like Mars hitting Earth, this gigantic black sphere crashed straight into the Boat of Mausoleum.

Bang!

The Boat of Mausoleum merely gave a slight tremor. Then the impact of the collision was entirely diminished as it continued to advance in its mighty manner.

“Can’t be stopped!” North True Star Master was getting very distressed. “This—this… This Luo Feng is using his godly power to drive that Boat of Mausoleum. How can he be so powerful?”

The Boat of Mausoleum was an automaton type. To activate and drive it, a part of it required godly power. The other part of it depended on the power of the Boat of Mausoleum itself.

Furthermore, this Boat of Mausoleum had been remodeled.

Regardless of the aspect—be it defense, strength of impact, flight, etc.—it was much more powerful than an ordinary Boat of Mausoleum by ten times or even 100 times. If an ordinary Boat of Mausoleum was considered to be a normal boat, then this vessel that was remodeled by Duan Dong River himself would be considered a universe planet ship! Naturally, it was on a different level. It was not on the same scale of comparison.

“North True Star Master, let me stop him.” Mi Ya Master had now made his way over.

“Hurry! Hurry, and trap him!” North True Star Master said.

“Go!”

A massive purple light immediately sliced across the sky and started to expand. It continuously expanded as it enveloped the Boat of Mausoleum from behind! This massive purple light was, in fact, a supreme true treasure in the form of a strange and special web. It was specially designed to restrain and entrap enemies.

“Bind, bind, bind!” Mi Ya Master was trying his best to keep the situation under control.

Yet regardless of how the purple web tried to bind and restrain, block and obstruct, the Boat of Mausoleum continued to advance mightily; the purple web was only a cover over its surface like a decorative layer of cloth. It did not have any influence over the Boat of Mausoleum whatsoever.

“Can’t stop him—I can’t stop him!” Mi Ya Master’s level of anxiety reached a new high. action

“Then—then just attack!” Even North True Star Master was getting fidgety.

The suction force was not working. Resistance was not working either. Neither was the supreme true treasure used to bind and trap enemies! How else could they stop Luo Feng?

“This Boat of Mausoleum can completely block off all forms of godly power.” North True Star Master was in great distress now as he immediately transformed into a dazzling streak of light. This massive, arc-like light viciously struck the Boat of Mausoleum, which merely gave a slight tremor in response. Thereafter, as though nothing had happened, it continued to advance mightily. “Useless!” North True Star Master glared after it. “Even material attacks are pointless!”

Any and every method was futile against the Boat of Mausoleum! Attempting to trap it would be asking for the impossible!

There was no trace of sentimental attachment displayed by the Boat of Mausoleum. It continued to advance at high speed, making its way far into the distance. And in the distance, there was a large crowd of super beings from the Purple Moon Holy Land and the first reincarnation era.

“Haha! This Boat of Mausoleum is very powerful indeed,” said Luo Feng. “Maybe I should just drive it like this, recklessly and haphazardly, and barge out of the Universe Boat.”

Luo Feng was carefree and at ease. Disregarding all the supreme true treasures and universe supreme masters in his path and moving ahead with such reckless behavior, this feeling was certainly refreshing. It was the charm of an automaton type true treasure.
