Chapter 273 The Immortal Mother Queen Extorts Treasures
Two days later—still in that same ring zone filled with heterogeneous meteorites—
brush!
The two figures appeared at the same time.
One of them exuded a terrifying aura, yet his figure seemed to vanish into thin air, as if he did not exist in this space.
The other person's aura was much weaker.
Tens of thousands of kilometers away, two figures floated in the starry sky. One was a beautiful figure, twelve meters tall, slender, delicate, and charming. The other was a majestic, enormous, and ferocious beast, tens of thousands of kilometers high.
At that moment, the giant beast suddenly opened its eyes.
"One is a marquis from a different clan, plus another is a king—high-level? Or peak?"
Ye Yang stared intently at the powerful King-level expert in the distance, his expression grave.
However, he was prepared for the Immortal Mother Queen to bring help, so things didn't exceed his expectations. "This powerful beast, my master has ordered me to bring a treasure worth 10 billion units. Please release Lady Xia Beina immediately," the Immortal God of the Marquis faction, seemingly from a small or medium-sized demon clan, transmitted telepathically.
At the same time, a series of treasures were taken out and displayed in the air.
"Heh, as expected of the Zerg Queen. Few in number, but each one incredibly wealthy." Ye Yang chuckled, then quickly added coldly, "Bring over all the treasures first!"
The immortal queen's soul servant, however, showed no fear and said, "This powerful behemoth, please release Lady Shabena first."
Xia Beina's lips twitched. She was about to shout something to put pressure on her sister and make the result favor her master, but Ye Yang stopped her with a telepathic message.
"Don't move, don't do anything that would arouse your sister's suspicion," Ye Yang said calmly.
For the past two days, the Immortal Queen Gers has been trying to talk to Shabena intensely, seemingly testing whether her sister has been enslaved by someone's soul.
Xia Beina has been 'imitating' her former self as Ye Yang requested—yes, after being enslaved by her soul, some things deep within her heart have been changed.
They will unconsciously obey their master unconditionally, and put their master at the center of everything, thinking about their master and regarding their master as the most important person to them, a hundred or a thousand times more important than their own life, ideals, pursuits, relatives and friends, etc.!
Therefore, some spiritual masters can detect whether a person's consciousness has lost its subjectivity and become an appendage of others through simple dialogue.
However, the Zerg Queen is, after all, a natural master of the soul, and Shabena has not shown any weakness in dealing with her sister these past two days.
Ye Yang listened to Xia Beina recount the conversation between the two, gaining an understanding of their personalities and ways of getting along.
"The Immortal Queen Gers is very experienced, and she will become suspicious at the slightest abnormality. Her only weakness is that she is very fond of her junior, Shabena. Since entering the extraterrestrial battlefield, Shabena has been trying to prove herself and compete with her sister, not wanting her sister to help her."
"Gers knows this, so it's already surprising that Shabena is willing to ask her for help. If Shabena's behavior goes any further and is too different from usual, Gers's suspicions will rise sharply."
While thinking to himself, Ye Yang said coldly, "You've brought a prince; now I have to question your sincerity!"
"If I can't release the people after receiving the treasure, I'd rather not take the risk, just crush this Zerg Queen here, and then teleport away!"
The Marquis-level soul servant opposite also said, "My master is also worried about this behemoth powerhouse."
"If you break your promise and kill Lady Shabena after obtaining the treasure, wouldn't we have suffered a great loss for nothing?"
Both sides stuck to their own versions of events, resulting in a stalemate.
After arguing with the noble-level servant for a few moments, Ye Yang said impatiently, "Hmph, it seems you have no sincerity whatsoever. This little bug can just die!"
As it spoke, it raised its thousand-kilometer-high hoof, preparing to stomp Shabena to death.
"Wait!" The noble servant quickly gestured, "Sir, let's talk this out!"
"My master is willing to give you the treasure ahead of schedule!"
The giant beast's claws stopped.
"Heh, it would have been better if you had done this sooner. You wasted my time." The giant beast Ye Yang sneered and stretched out his claws to pinch Xia Beina.
He manipulated the claws, which stretched for thousands of kilometers, with exquisite precision, without harming Xia Beina in the slightest. However, Xia Beina, being toyed with like this, revealed an expression of utter humiliation.
Seeing this scene through the simulated images of soul servants, the Immortal Queen Gers felt even more distressed and also felt somewhat guilty.
"My poor Shabena, I will definitely find a chance to avenge you later!" she thought to herself.
"This behemoth powerhouse," said Gess's servant in the starry sky, at her instruction, "I have a suggestion. The lord from the Zerg faction whom Master invited is proficient in spatial teleportation and spatial sealing."
"When we hand over the treasures, this gentleman will set up a spatial lock to prevent you from teleporting away with the treasures and hostages."
"Simply blocking space only restricts your ability to teleport and toy with us. Neither I nor this person will approach within 10 kilometers of you. You have enough reaction distance and time. If you sense that we are going to harm you, you can fly away at any time. We may not be able to catch up with you."
Ye Yang immediately roared, "No way!"
Although his ability to traverse spatial gaps is different from ordinary spatial teleportation, and even if space is blocked, it cannot stop him from instantly traveling to a distant location, this ability and trump card, which is considered heaven-defying at the immortal level, is something Ye Yang wants to save for the most critical moment.
Only by concealing one's true abilities can one strike unexpectedly at the most crucial moment and deliver a fatal blow to the enemy!
"Giving you the treasure ahead of time is the biggest concession my master can make! We have already shown our sincerity, are you not even willing to show a little sincerity?" Upon hearing Ye Yang's refusal, the servant of the marquis asked in a deep voice.
The two sides began a new round of debate, and after several rounds, they finally reached a consensus.
Both sides retreated until they were 100 million kilometers apart, at which point the exchange of hostages and treasure took place.
Gesi's side first gave the treasure, then Ye Yang released the people, and finally the Zerg camp's King-level Immortal broke the spatial seal.
"Then let's begin the transaction now."
Suddenly, a lord from another race appeared beside the servant who had been granted the title of Marquis.
"Go and take this ring to that powerful figure," the servant said.
This world lord was probably a cannon fodder temporarily enslaved by him, and he came to the side of the giant beast Ye Yang with a world ring containing treasures.
boom!
Ye Yang casually killed this realm lord, just to be on the safe side.
As the inner world exploded in the starry sky, a large number of items were scattered, but nothing threatening appeared.
Ye Yang used his mental power to bring the World Ring to his front. He probed it with the power of the world and, sure enough, it was a treasure worth nearly 10 billion Zerg currency units.
"That's quite a show of sincerity; the total value of these treasures even exceeds 10 billion units." Ye Yang smiled and casually nudged Xia Beina: "Let's go back, little bug."
Xia Beina immediately flew at top speed, and after flying 3 kilometers, she summoned a World Lord-level soul servant to take her into her inner world, where the World Lord servant flew in her place.
It seems she was also wary of the giant beast, the King, breaking its promise and attacking her halfway through the journey.
Seeing this, Gess felt somewhat relieved.
However, Gess still had the immortal servants keep a close eye on Shabena's situation and the movements of the behemoth that was crowned king.
He began to plot his revenge.
Daring to provoke their Queen Mother clan, and humiliating them in this way, arrogantly demanding treasures, they really don't take their status as the pinnacle of the universe seriously!
We must make this strange, behemoth that appeared out of nowhere understand that the reason our Zerg can stand at the pinnacle of the universe is because we fought our way up!
"This behemoth is quite large. With such a massive divine body, it must be some kind of special life form. If we could enslave its soul—"
Gess shook her head.
She knew that with her current strength, it would be extremely difficult to enslave a King-level expert with her soul.
She unleashed a combined attack from thousands of immortal insectoids, the power of which would terrify many peak-level Kings, but her own soul attack was far from reaching the King level.
"Bring Shabena back first, and we'll deal with the rest later."
Ges waited patiently, and soon Xia Beina's world lord-level soul servant approached and was easily taken into her world ring by her marquis-level immortal servant.
According to the agreement, the Zerg should have lifted the spatial blockade at this point.
However, Ye Yang sensed that the space within a radius of tens of millions of kilometers centered on that unfamiliar king remained completely undisturbed, indicating that the spatial blockade was still ongoing.
"The space is still sealed off, and teleportation is not possible. What do you mean by this?" The behemoth's eyes, which were sixty or seventy kilometers in size, stared at the two people in the distance, and its voice grew colder.
"Alien, your deal with Queen Gers is complete, but unfortunately, I've set my sights on the treasures you possess."
The unfamiliar king invited by Ge Si suddenly spoke up, revealing his intentions to Ye Yang for the first time.
"Even with spatial isolation, you can't teleport, but I'm sure you can't catch me," Ye Yang sneered.
Whether we can catch up or not, we'll only know after we try.
The unfamiliar prince licked his lips and turned to look at the noble servant, but he was actually speaking to Gess:
"Our last deal is complete. Now it's your turn to help me kill this alien and seize its treasures."
"That's natural," the servant said, having already retreated dozens of kilometers away.
With a turn of the world ring in her hand, a beautiful, crystalline figure appeared, accompanied by 2000 golden insectoid figures.
2000 Immortal Zerg!
The combined attack's base power is equivalent to 20 times that of a peak Realm Lord! Moreover, they are all at the Immortal level, a level above the so-called "Realm Lord Kings" among the Zerg, which also greatly increases the power of their combined attack.
Finally, because there were only 2000 of them, the Immortal Queen Geth could manipulate them with ease, and each one could unleash exquisite law attacks.
The combined advantages of these 2000 Immortal Zerg make their combined attack far more powerful than that of 200 million World Lord Zerg Kings.
Even those who reach the pinnacle of their power must tremble with fear at this!
Not using any means to dodge is simply courting death!
"Heh, they're really cautious." The unfamiliar king from the Zerg faction chuckled as he looked at the Immortal Queen 'Gers', who had manipulated her servants to retreat 100,000 kilometers away before emerging from the World Ring.
However, when he looked at the 2000 immortal Zerg warriors, a hint of apprehension flashed in his eyes.
At such close range, and under spatial confinement, he would be in a very difficult situation fighting against these 2000 immortal insectoids.
After all, you can't take the opponent's combined attack head-on; if you get hit, you'll die, and if you just graz them, you'll get injured. You can only rely on your movement skills to dodge.
However, now that they are on the same side, "I will concentrate my attack power to disrupt the movement trajectory of this behemoth, so you can catch up with it!" Ges said coldly, staring at the colossal creature that was over 10,000 kilometers tall in the distance.
Seeing her beloved younger sister being humiliated like that, she was now furious.
"Good, I hope that the Immortal Queen Gess's battlefield control is as exquisite as rumored." The alien king nodded, and his figure became ethereal, as if he had become a superposition of countless shadows, passing through different paths at the same time.
His movements were perfectly in line with the space around him, like a ghost, yet his speed was unbelievably fast.
Meanwhile, Gess was also manipulating the Immortal Zerg to build up power, preparing to launch a joint attack.
"One is skilled in agility, and the other can attack from a distance. Are they trying to work together to hold me back?" Ye Yang could see through their intentions at a glance.
"Hmph, dream on!"
The giant beast Ye Yang flapped its wings. Although he hadn't painstakingly studied how to use his wings, his usual training had enabled him to fully master the power of this body.
In the high-level standard of devouring the world, complete mastery of physical power means that the force exerted by the body reaches 100 times!
After being promoted to the Realm Lord, Ye Yang quickly increased the power multiplier of the first Golden Horn clone to its maximum through training.
First-order scale patterns faintly appeared on its body surface. The original Golden Horned Beast was originally the darling of 'gold' and 'space', but under the effect of this pattern system, it seemed to have merged with this space-time.
With his wings spread, it was as if the entire space-time was providing him with assistance, giving Ye Yang a novel feeling that was different from when a human body used movement techniques.
"The Law of Spacetime Fusion is a completely new law. Just as the Law of Space can be combined with the Laws of Metal and Fire, the Law of Spacetime Fusion can naturally be combined with other laws as well."
"And when performed by this body, it is more in line with the laws of metal, and it is easier to combine the two laws, making the feeling of performing it completely different from that of a human body."
With a roar, the giant beast Ye Yang transformed into a golden light, tearing through space and time at an incredible speed, and rushing into the depths of the starry sky.
Only two long black scratches remained in place; the space itself was shattered as a result!
"What?" The alien king, who had originally been very confident in his spatial movement technique, was dumbfounded after witnessing the even more astonishing and illogical speed of the giant beast.
