Chapter 204: Chapter 204 THE ELVES
Meanwhile, in the Core Zone, multiple figures were looking at the sky with a grave expression.
"The Insect Race!" The expression of those from the Spiritual Alliance were white.
"What are they!?" Fabuki asks, she, of course, recognizes them.
"A race known for their bottomless hunger, they leave worlds barren every time they arrive, they don’t have any allies but they are enough to terrorize countless words, those that crossed their paths were all devoured without fail!"
Fabuki’s expression turns pale, she looks at the sky and the masses of insects that are as large as humans, some of them are even bigger than large mystique creatures.
"This world is over, nothing can stop those ravenous bxstards."
Just as Fabuki was overcame with despair, a voice disagrees with the earlier statement.
"Not exactly, those things can only travel to a world if they have a path to said world, once they spread their population in their targeted worlds, the world’s barrier would be destroyed and their army would descend."
"Looking at the army above us, it seems that they are incapable of breaching through the world barrier on their own."
The elf smiles to her. "You just need to prevent their kind from spreading in this world."
"That’s easier said than done, they always have an army of gold rank with them when they’re trying to conquer a world, not to mention, you don’t even know which portal they have that’s connected to your world."
"I think I know where, hahaha! Serve you right! He’s the one that prevented you from destroying our city and killing our people! Now, he’s also the one stopping you from invading this world!"
"Can you tell me who do you mean?" Asks the elf.
"Sean! He’s the one that fought against these things and protected the people of our city, the portal is back on our city, I must inform the elders about this! We need to stop these things!"
"Do you need help? Our race is willing to offer a helping hand."
"Really!? Thank you, we might need your knowledge against these creatures."
"You’re our allies, we are more than willing to offer such help, will you be bringing us to your city?"
"If it’s okay with you."
"But of course, we need to witness what type of insects they sent in this world."
She bows to her and quickly leaves, informing her where their house is.
As she left, the elf went back to the Federation and shares the news to the other elves.
Back to Golden Qi Capital.
Sean calls for Wuk, the two of them enters the crack in space, what they saw, shocked them.
A vast army of insects were trying to break the seal put by the space gate.
"Wuk, I want you to bring me to safety."
"Why!? What are you planning!?"
"I’m going to use Supernova on this swarm, while I’m weakened, you are the only one that can protect me."
"Understood!"
Sean dashes towards the swarm and punches them with Shock and King Kong Punch.
An image of a giant ape appears above him, instantly, he kills hundreds of insects in just one blows.
Looking at the incoming swarm, he opens his palm and a powerful suction force appears, instantly absorbing thirty insects, filling his power.
As more and more insects gathers around him, he can’t help but smile in a manic manner.
Burning Sun + Vitality Burst + Heavenly Flame Technique + Supreme Cultivation Technique + Fire Manipulation.
Burning Sun as it’s core, absorbing the fire element in the surrounding with Fire Manipulation, using the innate flames burning inside of him using yang energy as the basis, Heavenly Flame Technique and absorbing the spiritual energy to further fuel the flame and finally using his own vitality to release everything.
Empowered by the traits of Phoenix Flame.
The Fire Rune and Sun Rune activates simultaneously.
Minerva appears and transforms into a pair of wings wrapping around his body.
Supernova!
BOOM!
The explosion incinerates thousands to hundreds of thousands of insects in an instant.
[Absorbing the souls as sacrifice to enhance Beast World.]
He was stunned but the bout of weakness appears on his body.
Suddenly, flames starts to come out on his body, it has different colour.
His strength starts to rapidly recover but not fast enough for him to move.
Wuk grabs him and makes a run for it, there’s no insects nearby, they were all incinerated.
Just as they reach the boundary of the barrier, a beam appears and hits Wuk, turning him into stone but his body flashes with a golden light, suppressing the petrification.
The two of them crashes on the city but before they hit anything, Jasmine catches them.
"Wuk, what happened to you!?" She was shocked to see her brother turning to stone.
"Bring him to Beast World!" Sean shouts, his strength was rapidly returning to him, unlike before, Supernova no longer left him completely useless.
He might not be able to use any of his skills but at least he can move, his body is strong enough to be considered a weapon, he can now protect himself while recovering.
"What happened!?" Everyone looks at him with anxiety.
"Don’t worry, the space gate is now preventing those things from coming down, still, we can’t just lower our guard, I’m going to station both Bai and Minerva around this crack, tell everyone to always be alert for any warning from the city hall."
They are relieved to hear this, the appearance of such dense number of insects is just too much for them to take, especially, the people that survived the attack that day.
"System, is there any way to stop them from entering this world?"
[You already did, these creatures can’t cross over to this world because they have no influence on this world, as long as you prevent that portal gate from resurfacing, they will forever be unable to enter this world.]
"That’s great news, as long as the space gate is active, the portal gate will forever be sealed away."
[That’s false, just like the crack, the space gate can’t fully suppress something of such caliber, it will only take one year for that specific portal to breach through the suppression and reconnects to this world.]
"What should I do?" His expression changes, those things, their number is just too much, not to mention, there are a couple of them that even gives him pressure.
He thought that he would be able to stay at their world peacefully for a couple of years, he didn’t expect that it was just a month or so.
[Continue enhancing Beast World, it’s no longer an incomplete world that only relies on you, it can now absorb other type of power to empower it.]
"How do I achieve that?"
[By absorbing the power of other words or sacrificing soul powers, the first method is the quickest and also the most reliable, the second method is slow and requires so much.]
"Do I need to conquer worlds just to absorb their power?"
[No, just by creating an force in that world and conquering it can help you absorb some of it’s power slowly.]
"I know what to do."
He now has a clear target, his first pick was Martial World, he won’t interfere with Bun Bun’s work but he must build a space gate there.
Space gates are going to be his way of anchoring Beast World’s influence and entrance on his target worlds.
They don’t need to do anything on that world and frankly, him interfering will only hold back Bun Bun.
In order for Beast World to connect to a world, he must accept the punishment brought to him by the will of the world.
He’s confident in this, he has the protection of his domain, he also have the Heavenly Law Rune and his body is tempered to the point that it’s now comparable to Innates.
Returning back home, his expression becomes gloomy, he has to tell Hina that they had to reschedule their wedding because of what’s happening.
Entering her room, he knocks slightly with a forlorn expression.
"Hina, I need to talk to you about something."
She opens the door with a faint smile in her face, the two of them sits down on her bed.
"It’s about our wedding, isn’t it?"
He opens his mouth and closes it once again.
"I had already expected this, I saw your face after you entered that crack, you had been deep in thought ever since."
"I’m sorry."
"You don’t need to apologize, judging from your expression, it seems that you’re going somewhere for a considerable amount of time."
"Yes, one year, that’s the deadline for those things to descend into our world."
She was shocked, just like the others, she thought that Sean had successfully stopped the insects from entering their world.
"I didn’t expect that my creation of space gate would save our world unknowingly."
"So, are you going to upgrade the space gate?"
"Yes, I need to go to other worlds and put up different space gates in that world to share the burden of our own space gate, you should had seen that crack, it was already pressuring our space gate too much that it created a crack in our world."
She touches his chest and lays her head.
"It’s unfair to you, why are you always burdened with shouldering the responsibility of protecting our world?"
"I guess, with great power, comes great responsibility, dxmn, I really hate this quote, I’m not a saint, still, I don’t want to just let those things destroy our world."
"I’ll be waiting for you."
Hearing this, he can’t help but look at her with guilt, they had prepared everything, only to be fxcked over by situations such as this.
"I’m leaving in secret, don’t tell anyone about this, I don’t want them to panicked, especially, in our current time where development is quite important."
She nods her head, looking at her understanding expression, he can’t help but feel that he’s the luckiest man in the world with a wife like her.
He kisses her forehead.
"Jasmine and Wuk will be staying in this world, protecting it from any danger while I’m gone, you can tell aunt Tsu and the girls that I’m not at home but you can’t anyone else, I’ll have Jasmine put an illusion that I’m cultivating inside my room."
"I understand, be careful out there, you don’t have anyone but yourself."
"Not really, I have Bai and the others accompanying me, they are immortal and unafraid of pain and death, as long as they are with me, I’m confident that I can survive anything."
"Bai and the others? I only know Bai, isn’t he that white tiger."
"Yes, Bai is my sword, it can transform into a white tiger that can attack on it’s own. Awakened due to the sword of slaughter and the presence of Golden Qi."
He summons Bai in his sword form and the rest, they are also in their item form.
"This crown is Longshen, he is a green dragon, similar to Bai, only in a different element. This pair of wings is Minerva, a phoenix. This armour is Twin, he is turtle with a dragon-python for a tail, and finally, this is Osal, a golden Qilin."
"I’ll leave everything to you to explain to everyone, I must hurry and leave, we only have one year or worse, probably less than a year, those things seems to be determined to eat our world."
Meanwhile, in the core zone, the elves were discussing with each other.
"Now that we know the location of his city, the rest is definitely easy, this world is already hopeless, they have no hope of keeping these insects at bay, their world is the perfect delicacy for these things, they loved to devour worlds that are on the verge of evolution."
"Queen, I’m confused, why can’t they enter this world? With the will slumbering because of the evolution process, it should be easy for them to bypass the barrier using the portal gate they found."
