Chapter 387 - Slaying Enemies 20,000 Miles Away
"An Gulun got slain by Xiahou Ji of Xia?"
As the entire Xia celebrated Xiahou Ji's defeat of An Gulun, the word of the legendary-level beast tamer's death quickly reached the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets.
Even though there were not many traitors to the two alliances left on the Cerulean Planet, some of them still persisted.
These traitors could contact the two alliances through the Ancient God Planet.
At the same time, there were also many spies embedded within the numerous clans subordinate to the Great Xia Alliance.
On the flip side, the Xia had their own spies embedded within the two alliances.
Neither side let up in the war of espionage.
After they found out that An Gulun had died at the hands of the Great Xia Alliance, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets was furious.
Their entire alliance had less than twenty legendary-level beast tamers, to begin with.
In just a short stretch of time, they had already lost several of them.
Inside a magnificent palace, the Holy-Eyed Clan King, the Welkin Crystal Race King and the Sacred Fire Race King sat atop their three perspective thrones.
Anger flared within all of their eyes.
The Great Xia Alliance had gone too far recently.
They found out the standard the Great Xia Alliance was going to nominate their alliance leader on.
They were going to nominate their alliance leader based on the candidates' contributions.
What constituted a contribution?
For example, slaying the beast tamers of the two alliances would be contributing to the Xia.
"Xiahou Ji of the Xia!"
The Sacred Fire Race King Sang Daocheng's expression was full of grim ferocity.
"Brother Daocheng."
The Holy-Eyed Clan King Gu Motian looked towards Sang Daocheng sitting by his side and said, "there is only one way we could deal with the Xia right now and that is to find out the secret of how Xia beast tamers are able to evolve so quickly."
"The Great Xia Alliance's secret to rapid evolution..."
A flash of intensity flickered across Sang Daocheng's eyes.
Both the Alliance of Ten Thousand Planets and the Silver Blood Alliance were larger than the Great Xia Alliance on their own.
If they could discover a quick way to evolution for their beast tamers, they could increase the strength of their alliances in a short amount of time by many folds.
By then, the Great Xia Alliance would not stand a chance.
"I understand!" Sang Daocheng nodded, then he asked, "are the Crab Spirit Clan ready? If possible, we should head over today!
"They should be concluding their preparations!" Gu Motian's lips curved into a sinister smile.
Sitting on the other side of him, the Welkin Crystal Race King Lai Mensi could hardly disguise his anticipation.
For the past several days, their subordinates discovered that many of the Crab Spirit Clan beast tamers on the Crab Spirit Planet experienced a massive boost in their cultivation very similar to the transformation the Xia beast tamers had undergone.
After they noticed this strange development, they immediately began investigating and making preparations for a landing.
They had established a transmission formation on the Crab Spirit Planet and planned to completely take over the planet.
Even though they had established bases and outposts on the Crab Spirit Planet before, they only sent challenger-level beast tamers to guard the place and did not completely take over the Crab Spirit Planet.
To prevent any accidents from happening this time, they drew in a large number of resources to establish ten transmission formations on the Crab Spirit Planet.
These ten transmission formations would allow for ten legendary-level beast tamers to descend on the Crab Spirit Planet all at once.
...
"Sacrifice Spell?"
Inside the Silver Blood Alliance headquarter, Da Fan Luo's fiery gaze was fixed to the jade scroll he clutched in his hands. "So this is the secret behind the Xia beast tamers' rapid increase in cultivation. Sacrifice Spell!"
Suddenly, he spun around and faced the master-level beast tamer who stood before him. "You have done us a great service this time. From today onwards, my clan will provide you with all the evolutionary materials you need from master-level to legendary-level."
"Furthermore, all the resources allocated to your clan will be doubled for the next thirty years."
"Thank you so much, Second Leader!"
The master-level beast tamer was delighted from what he had heard.
He had obtained the Sacrifice Spell while trialling on the Ancient God Planet.
As soon as he discovered the technique, he knew he struck gold.
And in hindsight, it was more than he could have ever imagined!
"Xia!"
Da Fan Luo squeezed the jade scroll in his grasp. A cold, murderous flash emanated from his eyes.
With the sheer amount of talents the Silver Blood Clan possessed, it was not impossible for them to create several dozen legends in a short span of time.
There was no telling if they could manage to gain a monarch-level beast tamer, but they were definitely going to have several peak legendary-level beat tamers!
By that point, how could the little alliance of Xia threaten them at all?
...
"Shoo!"
On the Ancient God Plains, the image of a Holy-Eyed Clan challenger flickered as he materialized on the plains.
Immediately after he arrived, the challenger-level beast tamer swung his arm forward and cast a strange looking ancient seal. The seal was basked in a pure-white glow as the beast tamer held it in his hand.
It fluttered back and forth before it pointed towards a certain direction.
"Is that the direction to the Divine Spirit Energy?"
He then sent his conscience into his beast ring. Inside was a little white beast sealed away in an ancient white rock. The little beast's eyes were shut, but it wore an anticipating expression on its delicate face. It was eager to be freed.
"Don't worry. Once I find the Divine Spirit Energy and restore your powers, we will remind the world once more of the might of the Ten Forbidden Beasts of Immortal Ancient Times."
Inside the ancient white rock, the little beast heard the middle-aged man's bold words and opened its eyes slightly.
Then, it displayed a slight expression of ridicule before shutting its eyes again to slumber.
This man wanted to contract the great Lil Baibai?
Even though it was only master-level, none of the beast tamers here stood a chance to contract it with their talents. Maybe it would take for them to reach starlight-level or emperor-level just to have a slim chance.
For a mere challenger-level beast tamer to even wish to contract it deserved nothing less than its utmost ridicule.
If there was any challenger-level beast tamer that could contract it, it would not mind performing circus tricks on a handstand.
If there was any master-level beast tamer that could contract it, it would not even mind pissing from a handstand.
"You would do!"
When Ye Xuan stepped through the time vortex and arrived on the Ancient God Plains, he was unaware of all the plots and developments going on in the outside world.
He opened the Tidal Treasure Snail's real-time mini-map and searched the surrounding area for a target.
He then discovered a master-level beast tamer of the Eternal Night Clan.
At that moment, the Eternal Night Clan's master-level beast tamer was engaged in a deadly battle against a giant serpent 20,000 miles away from where Ye Xuan was.
"Descend!"
Ye Xuan watched that Eternal Night Clan master for a bit and had an idea. He copied a clone of the Tidal Treasure Snail in his beast lair.
"Buzz!"
In an instant, Ye Xuan commanded the newly copied Tidal Treasure Snail clone to form a Treasure Snail Image 20,000 miles away.
"What is going?"
20,000 miles away, the Eternal Night Clan's master-level beast tamer felt the space ripple in the middle of his battle with the giant serpent and stopped his attack to investigate.
Then, he saw the Tidal Treasure Snail appear several hundred meters away from him. It was surrounded by numerous space undercurrents.
"Is that strange thing... Ye Xuan's beast?"
His expression changed after he saw the Tidal Treasure Snail. He felt the pressure mounting on his shoulders.
"Buzz!"
The Treasure Snail Image had no regard for his expressions and feelings.
After it appeared, it immediately began to spin at a rapid pace. The light spun from its rotation was harsh and sharp, as if it could slice open anything in its way.
In addition, its speed was incredibly fast. It launched itself towards the Eternal Night Clan's master-level beast tamer like a fallen meteor.
With a loud buzz, it appeared before him and swung its razor-sharp edge at him with a destructive might.
"Ye Xuan!"
The Eternal Night Clan's beast tamer let out an angry roar. With a wave of the hand, he summoned his Light Iron Crow to block in front of him.
That Light Iron Crow was only a diamond-level beast.
All of his master-level beasts were engaged in the battle against that giant serpent.
There was no time for them to return and defend him.
"Shoo!"
Just as he summoned his four-legged, giant Light Iron Crow with the height of a horse, the Treasure Snail Image dashed across the crow and swept deftly across its neck.
It was slain just like that in a single strike.
The Treasure Snail Image continued onwards at the Eternal Night Clan's beast tamer as if nothing had ever impeded him.
"No!"
The was nothing on the Eternal Night Clan's beast tamer's face besides frustration and despair.
It stood absolutely no chance against the four-star beast grade, mid master-level Tidal Treasure Snail.
In an instant, his head endured the same fate as his Light Iron Crow as it fell to the ground.
As he died, his beasts that were fighting the giant serpent in the distance all fell one by and one and lost their lives.
"One down!"
20,000 miles away, Ye Xuan murmured to himself.
Shoo!
As soon as the Treasure Snail Image finished its attack, it carried the body of the Eternal Night Clan's beast tamer and his Light Iron Crow and flew towards the distance.
Then, in another sleuth of flashes, it picked up the bodies of the deceased beast tamer's other beasts.
"Hiss!"
Seeing the Treasure Snail Image fly towards it, the giant serpent that was fighting the Eternal Night Clan beast tamer's beasts a moment ago craned up its massive head and hissed towards the sky.
It looked like it was trying to scare the Treasure Snail Image, but the Treasure Snail Image paid it no mind.
In a flash, the Treasure Snail Image appeared right before the giant serpent. The giant serpent opened its large mouth and flashed its sharp fangs. It was preparing to spew green, poisonous gas at the Treasure Snail Image.
Suddenly, the Treasure Snail Image stopped midair.
With a loud rumble, the space around it collapsed and a massive space tunnel formed.
Vroom!
As the space tunnel formed, the dead bodies of the Eternal Night Clan's beast tamer's beasts, along with that giant serpent and the blood-red medicinal herb the giant serpent was guarding, all got transported to Ye Xuan's location.
"Roar!"
Inside the space tunnel, the giant serpent hissed and roared incessantly. It spewed poisonous gas from its mouth and thrashed its massive tail about.
It wanted badly to escape this tunnel that frighted it so.
Its level was not much higher than the Treasure Snail Image and its grade could not even compare to the Treasure Snail Image.
In a matter of seconds, it was transported to Ye Xuan 20,000 miles away along with the rest.
"Slash!"
"Slash!"
"Slash!"
The moment the giant serpent got out of the space tunnel, three Tidal Treasure Snails appeared before Ye Xuan and slashed towards it. The giant serpent was dead on the spot.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Xuan stored away all the loots and spoils the Treasure Snail Image transported over.
"This ability..."
After slaying the giant serpent, Ye Xuan felt amazed.
He was amazed by the Tidal Treasure Snail's abilities.
And that was only its current form.
He could not help but wonder if he established a throne at the centre of the universe one day, could he control the entire world through his Tidal Treasure Snail?
If anyone dared to disobey him, he could use the Tidal Treasure Snail's Treasure Snail Image to slay them with just a thought.
