749 The Temptation of a Large Mineral Deposit (2)
“Quick, make the most of our time. The other high-dimensional lifeforms in the South Pavilion dominion will converge here soon.” The dean’s heart raced with excitement. He had come across immense treasures twice since becoming a high-dimensional lifeform, but he had been too weak back then to partake.
But this time, four high-dimensional humans united to seize the treasure!
“The haul we get this time will be enough for the human race to flourish.” The dean’s eyes gleamed with determination. They would fight tooth and nail against anyone who tried to snatch their prize.
…
In the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion, three major factions reigned supreme. Aside from them, several other relatively powerful factions existed.
For instance, Myriad Star Island was an emerging faction! Rumor had it that they possessed weapons from the scientific lineage and could hold their own against half-step third realm powerhouses in direct confrontations.
Similarly, Moyu once secured a rare treasure, the Mother Stream Origin Bead. To high-dimensional lifeforms of the Mother Stream lineage, its value equated to a third-realm weapon. With this Mother Stream Origin Bead, Moyu could transform his surroundings into an infinite Mother Stream. Even a half-step third-realm powerhouse would struggle to stop his escape. In battle, few below the half-step third realm could rival him.
Over ten factions like Myriad Star Island operated within the dominion, each capable of defending themselves against half-step third realm powerhouses. Unquestionably, Five Demons Planet was the mightiest among these ten-plus factions.
Five black planets hovered in a desolate high-dimensional space! The auras of the five black stars intertwined, their light gleaming fiercely.
“Five Star Lords!”
An agitated, slender figure materialized near the five ancient stars. “I’ve discovered a massive mineral deposit in the Primordial Gold Mountains, and it’s drawn a large number of high-dimensional lifeforms.”
“Massive mineral deposit?”
The five black stars instantly coalesced into five figures, each emanating a formidable aura. Their piercing gazes sent chills down the slender figure’s spine.
“I wouldn’t dare deceive you, no matter how brazen I am,” the slender figure assured them.
“Azure Feather, we’ll naturally share the treasure with you,” one of the five figures stated. “Lead the way.”
“Yes, Star Lord,” the slender figure promptly responded.
As an Eternal lifeform of the Heart Realm lineage, she had numerous allies. Upon discovering the massive mineral deposits, she knew full well that her and her friends’ factions would struggle to secure 50% of the deposit. Consequently, she called upon Five Demons Planet.
The slender figure contemplated, When the Five Demons Planet act alone, each is virtually unbeatable against anyone below the half-step third realm. With the five of them working together… they can naturally claim the lion’s share of the mineral deposit.
Whoosh.
Her clone sped towards the Primordial Gold Mountains with Five Demons Planet close behind.
Within moments, another figure arrived and surveyed the vacant area. The figure shook his head. I’m late. Five Demons Planet must have received the news and headed for the Primordial Gold Mountains.
Many high-dimensional lifeforms were eager to sell information to Five Demons Planet.
Five Demons Planet was formidable and had an outstanding reputation. If they truly profited, those who helped guide them would receive a small portion.
…
Boom! Boom!
Xu Jingming and the others’ forbidden domain covered 30% of the mineral deposit and furiously assaulted the mountain rocks. They steadily collected the excavated Primordial Gold Beads and Chunks, their excitement growing.
Another high-dimensional lifeform has arrived. Xu Jingming, the dean, Tower Master, Island Lord, and the others kept a watchful eye on their competitors. Just then, they saw six figures materialize simultaneously.
Five Demons Planet?
It’s Five Demons Planet?
Five Demons Planet is here!
The expressions of the high-dimensional lifeforms occupying the mineral deposit shifted.
Xu Jingming scrutinized the five, having naturally gathered intel on them. All five from the Five Demons Planet belonged to the rare Dark Star school of the Primordial Star lineage. They maintained clones that dwelled extremely close to the Primordial Star year-round.
The Primordial Star was the most fearsome celestial body in high-dimensional space. The closer one got, the more devastating its destructive power.
They could reside incredibly close to the Primordial Star, a feat even half-step third-realm powerhouses from other schools couldn’t achieve! For instance, Xu Jingming—hailing from the Heart Realm lineage—would be instantly incinerated into oblivion if he dared approach such proximity.
I heard that they encountered each other near the Primordial Star. As it’s rare to come across powerhouses from the Dark Star school, the five agreed to study the Dark Star school together in the future. They migrated from different dominions to the South Pavilion 3609 Dominion. Ever since… they act as a unit and usually reside in the void as five star incarnations. They rarely engage in conflicts, Xu Jingming pondered.
These five were reclusive and arrogant!
Each dared to challenge a half-step third-realm powerhouse in single combat.
With the five united, they wouldn’t stoop to bullying ordinary high-dimensional lifeforms. They would also express gratitude to anyone who aided them.
Thus, one Heart Realm powerhouse after another raced to deliver the news.
“What? Five Demons Planet?”
“Five Demons Planet is here too?”
At that moment, other high-dimensional lifeforms hastened to the scene upon receiving the news, but their hearts quaked in terror at the sight of Five Demons Planet.
The five Star Lords surveyed the entire mineral deposit.
What a massive mineral deposit. I reckon it surpasses 100 drops of Abyssal Mother Blood. Even half-step third-realm powerhouses might be drawn here. The five Star Lords smiled, clearly satisfied with the size of the mineral deposit.
“We’ll take half of this mineral deposit!”
One of the Star Lords declared in a commanding tone, “Myriad Star Island and Moyu, you can compete with the others.”
Evidently, Myriad Star Island accounted for 30% and Moyu 20% of the entire mineral deposit! Five Demons Planet had decided to annex the area these two groups occupied.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Five Demons Planet remained stationary, merely unleashing an invisible domain.
Immediately, the surrounding temperature soared, and the rocks shattered. A terrifying force warped and destroyed everything, ripping through the forbidden domain used by the dean, Tower Master, and Island Lord.
Forbidden domains were weaker in terms of trapping and blocking the enemy. They stood no chance against the five Star Lords’ domains.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The water of the Mother Stream around Moyu was torn asunder, exposing the true forms of Moyu, Oroco, and Feixing.
“Fine, I’ll yield to the five Star Lords.” Moyu bowed his head, fully aware that even a half-step third-realm powerhouse would struggle when Five Demons Planet joined forces. In such a situation, he would have no choice but to flee. Rather than running in a panic, it was better to submit and vie for the remaining shares.
Moyu’s side stepped aside.
However, Myriad Star Island stood their ground.
“Get lost if you don’t want to die.” Another Star Lord frowned and bellowed angrily upon seeing this. The other four Star Lords also glared icily at Xu Jingming and the others.
From Five Demons Planet’s perspective, unless a half-step third-realm powerhouse emerged in the dominion, they could do as they pleased.
They typically scorned bullying the weak, but how could they pass up such a mineral deposit?
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Xu Jingming’s figure rapidly stepped forward, and one split into five illusory Xu Jingmings. Each wielded an ethereal spear.
“Five Star Lords, if you wish to die, feel free to attack,” the five Xu Jingmings said in unison.
