Chapter 428: Chapter428-Overrunning the Stellar Starfield
Stellar Starfield, Odin Vein.
As the largest mining region within the Stellar Starfield, the ores excavated from this vein were extraordinarily valuable.
Across the entire universe, its value was second only to the flying fish industry.
Naturally, the true controller of this mineral vein was the leading power—Mistral Manor.
Ordinary factions were not even qualified to set foot within the Odin Vein.
...
Swish!
Two figures suddenly appeared, bringing the Odin Vein a pair of visitors whose hostility was unmistakable.
They were none other than Ian and Aldrich.
After receiving Daniel’s orders, they had rushed here immediately.
The moment they arrived, they stood above the void of the mineral vein and released their Covenanter auras without restraint.
Because they made no attempt to conceal themselves, the two Covenanter auras instantly descended from the heavens, their terrifying pressure covering almost the entire sky.
The moment the miners and Mistral Manor experts stationed within the vein sensed those horrifying auras, their hearts trembled.
"Enemies?"
The Covenanter guarding this place was named Sebastian.
He looked up in alarm. When he saw the two figures, shock and confusion appeared on his face.
The Stellar Starfield was still standing.
How could two unfamiliar Covenanters dare openly invade this place?
With a thought, Sebastian tore through the void and shot into the sky.
His calm gaze swept across the two figures opposite him.
His expression darkened, and his tone was distinctly hostile.
"Gentlemen, are you unaware that this mineral vein belongs to the Stellar Starfield?"
"This place is not open to outsiders. I assume the two of you must have taken a wrong turn."
At a glance, he could tell that these two Oracle-grade experts were only at the first and second stages.
Sebastian was confident that he could crush opponents of their level with ease.
Hearing this, Aldrich sneered.
"No. We haven’t taken a wrong turn."
"We came specifically for you."
The next moment, he turned his palm over, revealing a treasure.
Without the slightest hesitation, the treasure transformed into a streak of light and shot directly toward Sebastian.
Sebastian was startled when he realized that it was a Primordial Law-grade treasure.
It resembled an enormous ruler whose entire surface shimmered with flowing light.
Although Sebastian was surprised, he did not panic in the slightest.
He immediately struck his own chest, activating the sacred law scripture within his body.
Sebastian slowly raised a finger.
Specks of golden light appeared at its tip and spread across the entire finger within seconds.
The next moment, that finger expanded violently, growing until it covered the entire sky and reached a terrifying length of a million meters.
The vault of heaven was pierced apart by the colossal finger.
Sebastian swept it forward, smashing it directly against the approaching Primordial Law-grade treasure.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One deafening explosion followed another.
The ruler-shaped Primordial Law-grade treasure was forcibly knocked away by the enormous golden finger.
It was blasted toward the horizon, crashing through several mineral ridges before finally falling to the ground.
Sebastian sneered.
"It seems your treasure is nothing impressive."
"Now, take a look at mine."
He waved his hand.
An enormous puppet immediately appeared within the void.
Dense murderous energy poured from the puppet’s body, making it resemble an ancient beast awakening from a long slumber.
The pressure radiating from it surged outward like a vast tsunami.
The moment it appeared, it released an aura no weaker than that of a third-stage Oracle-grade expert.
In other words, Sebastian alone was capable of contending against two third-stage Oracle-grade experts.
Ian’s pupils contracted when he saw this.
He immediately spoke in a rapid voice.
"We should use the trump card Master specifically gave us before we departed."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black pill appeared in his hand.
This was the Oracle-grade treasure Daniel had personally entrusted to him before the mission.
It could cause any Oracle-grade expert below the fifth stage to instantly lose ninety percent of their strength.
It could only be described as a poison specifically designed for Oracle-grade experts.
Ian flicked his finger.
The pill shot forward at tremendous speed.
While spinning rapidly, it dissolved midway through its flight, transforming into a layer of black mist that covered an area spanning millions of miles.
The mist precisely enveloped Sebastian and his puppet.
The instant Sebastian came into contact with it, he felt his Strength being rapidly dissolved by the strange black fog.
"Damn it! This is a poisonous mist specifically targeting Oracle-grade experts!"
He could feel his strength plummeting.
Even his puppet was affected.
As the dark mist continued to erode them, the power of both Sebastian and the puppet was drastically reduced.
Ian and Aldrich exchanged a glance.
Both immediately activated the Divine-grade treasures they carried, along with their terrifying laws.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
A tsunami of destructive attacks poured madly into the black mist.
They launched an indiscriminate bombardment across the entire area.
Once everything finally fell silent, the black fog gradually dispersed.
Sebastian’s corpse was revealed, as weak and lifeless as a candle extinguished by the wind.
His puppet had disappeared without a trace.
Aldrich shrugged, looking completely relaxed.
"It appears our mission is complete."
"We should take the corpse as well. It may still be useful to Master."
As he finished speaking, he raised his hand.
Sebastian’s corpse immediately vanished from where it lay.
Ian turned his gaze toward the mineral vein below.
"I’ll take control of all the operations here."
Although the two of them were not particularly powerful on their own, they had received Oracle-grade treasures bestowed by Daniel.
Even when facing two Covenanter enemies one minor stage above them, they had nothing to fear.
This was the kind of enhancement Daniel could provide to those who followed him!
...
At the same time, on the opposite side of the Stellar Starfield.
An abnormal disturbance appeared within the planetary protection array of the Stellar Throne.
Its outer edges trembled continuously like ripples spreading across the surface of water.
Boom!
Following a deafening explosion, the array—which was powerful enough to withstand a high-stage Oracle-grade expert—was forcibly blasted open.
Amid the clouds of white smoke, a familiar figure appeared.
It was Daniel.
He had personally descended upon this place.
Expressionless, he advanced step by step, breaking through every obstacle before him and forcibly entering the territory of the Stellar Throne.
The next moment, countless experts cultivating in seclusion deep within the Stellar Throne sensed that the array had been destroyed.
They immediately transformed into streaks of light and revealed themselves.
Daniel’s expression remained indifferent as information regarding the Stellar Throne surfaced within his mind.
"The Stellar Throne..."
"If I remember correctly, it was established by the native Covenanters of the Stellar Starfield."
"The strongest among them is Forefather Stellar, a fifth-stage Oracle-grade expert. There are also numerous fourth-stage and third-stage Oracle-grade experts."
"In addition, they possess no shortage of Divine-grade experts, while their supreme-grade experts are practically countless."
"In that regard, they are different from Crown’s Summit of the Flying Fish Universe, which controlled only a single plane."
"There are also many medium-sized and minor powers throughout the Stellar Starfield."
"All of them are governed by the Stellar Throne."
"From this alone, it is clear that the Stellar Throne was able to dominate an entire region because its internal forces are remarkably united."
