Chapter 241 I Am So Scared

"This is…"

"A mustard seed containing the Universe?"

Aodu's expression was ugly, and the scene they were witnessing right now showed the man standing tall in the starry sky transforming into a giant supporting the heavens and earth.

In fact, the man's Physical Body had not changed; rather, it was they and the planet beneath their feet that began to shrink rapidly under the compression of the Space Rules.

Such a method could only be mastered by Experts with an extremely high comprehension of Space Rules.

According to Human Civilization's definition of Space Rules, one had to comprehend at least 1,800 core space models.

Generally speaking, Experts who comprehended this many core space models were roughly Eighth-Order Peak, and Aodu knew all the Eighth-Order Peak in the Milky Way Star Territory and surrounding star territories.

Wasn't there no such man wearing cyan armor?

Aodu felt a bit doubtful in its heart, feeling the spatial power pressing in from all directions, making its scalp tingle slightly.

"It's the Galaxy Star Master."

The huge meat mountain not far away immediately recognized him.

It knew a lot of intelligence regarding the Galaxy Star Master, including relevant images, and right now, that 'giant' standing outside the heavens looked very much like the Galaxy Star Master.

Coupled with what the other party had just said: "Speak, if the Galaxy Star Master dares to come, what do you plan to do?"

The huge meat mountain life form could almost be certain that the other party was indeed the Galaxy Star Master.

"Galaxy Star Master?"

Aodu was somewhat dazed.

It turned its head and looked at the huge meat mountain doubtfully.

Wasn't it said that the Galaxy Star Master was a newly entered Eighth-Order?

What was going on with turning a planet nearly tens of millions of miles wide into a mustard seed with a wave of his hand right now?

Such spatial comprehension might not even be achievable by an Eighth-Order Peak, yet a newly entered Eighth-Order Galaxy Star Master had achieved it?

"Starry Sky Alliance, Shang Shan, has met the Galaxy Star Master."

Ignoring Aodu's incredulity, the huge meat mountain hurriedly spoke with a hint of respect.

Although it also found it hard to understand why the Galaxy Star Master possessed such strong strength, now was not the time to fuss over these things.

The most important thing was to ease the atmosphere between the two sides.

"Starry Sky Alliance, Aodu, has met the Galaxy Star Master."

Seeing this, Aodu immediately followed suit.

"You special life forms, relying on your noble Bloodline, are each more lawless than the last, and now this star territory is Human Civilization's territory, yet you arbitrarily devour planets."

Lin Yuan said in a calm tone, "Do you really think we humans are the same as the Shadow Clan?"

The Shadow Clan was very tolerant towards these special life forms; firstly, they were unwilling to offend the forces behind these special life forms, and secondly, these special life forms themselves were not easy to deal with.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the Experts of the Shadow Clan turned a blind eye—for example, Aodu liked to devour planets, but as long as it wasn't too excessive, no one would bother about it.

"Galaxy Star Master, we were wrong."

The huge meat mountain's expression shifted slightly; through these words, it could tell that this Galaxy Star Master somewhat disliked their behavior.

"After today, we will obediently leave and will never appear before the Galaxy Star Master again."

The huge meat mountain Shang Shan immediately said.

Even if the Galaxy Star Master was truly just a newly entered Eighth-Order, after learning the other party's attitude, the best choice for the two special life forms was to leave.

After all, as the Star Domain master, the Galaxy Star Master had plenty of ways to deal with them.

Call for friends?

Invite a teacher to step forward?

Those were all methods.

Furthermore, the strength displayed by the Galaxy Star Master right now was no weaker than an Eighth-Order Peak, and his malice was completely beyond what the two special life forms could withstand.

"You devoured so many of my planets, and you think you can just leave so easily?"

Lin Yuan shook his head slightly, his thoughts moving, and a massive force crushed down toward the planet in his hand.

Rumble.

Terrifying force swept across the surface of the planet, though Lin Yuan still held back, otherwise, this planet would have collapsed in an instant.

"Not good."

The huge meat mountain's body swelled violently, struggling to resist the crushing force pressing down from all directions, though Shang Shan had a premonition that it wouldn't be able to hold on for long.

"How can this Galaxy Star Master be so monstrous? Is this called a newly entered Eighth-Order? Is this called under a hundred years old?"

The Physical Body of Shang Shan was suffering bitterly inside.

It glanced at Aodu not far away, who had been forced to reveal its true form.

However, under the Galaxy Star Master's method of the microcosm in a mustard seed, Aodu's true form was only the size of a little finger, lacking any majesty of special life forms and looking rather cute instead.

"Galaxy Star Master."

After enduring for more than a dozen breaths, the huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan spoke again, "I am willing to offer twenty thousand cosmic crystals to compensate for the Star Master's losses."

The huge meat mountain life form felt bitter inside.

The planets it had devoured were basically done when the Shadow Clan ruled this star territory, but there was no help for it now, as the Galaxy Star Master called the shots here.

"I am willing as well."

Aodu also spoke up.

It was also struggling to hold on.

"Twenty thousand cosmic crystals?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the two special life forms.

A normal Eighth-Order Expert possessed roughly several thousand to ten thousand cosmic crystals.

Human Evolvers who reached the Eighth Order might be a bit wealthier, but not by much—at most just a little over ten thousand.

Yet these two special life forms were directly willing to pull out twenty thousand cosmic crystals in one breath; clearly, they were both rolling in wealth.

This was also normal; special life forms had long Lifespans and possessed numerous innate abilities and methods, and accumulated over long years, naturally everyone was filthy rich.

"How about it, Galaxy Star Master?"

"Twenty thousand cosmic crystals are enough to compensate you."

The huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan was bleeding in its heart; it had cultivated the Clone technique, and its main body was in a distant star territory, but this current Clone had been condensed by it for many years, and its combat power was already close to the main body.

If it perished, it didn't know how many years it would take to condense a main body of this caliber once again.

"As long as I can preserve this Clone, paying some cosmic crystals is acceptable," the huge meat mountain life form thought to itself.

Over the long years, what it had invested in this Clone was far more than twenty thousand cosmic crystals.

"Foolish."

Lin Yuan did not stop, driving the massive World Power to continue crushing down.

If I kill you, won't all your cosmic crystals be mine anyway?

"Galaxy Star Master, do you really intend to burn all bridges?"

The huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan's expression changed drastically.

It was even willing to pay twenty thousand cosmic crystals, yet the Galaxy Star Master still intended to drive them to a dead end?

"Galaxy Star Master, do you know that we are members of the Starry Sky Alliance? If you want to kill us, have you asked the Starry Sky Alliance?"

Aodu finally couldn't help but speak up.

If it weren't an absolute last resort, it really didn't want to drag out the Starry Sky Alliance, because this meant completely tearing faces with the Galaxy Star Master.

"Starry Sky Alliance?"

Lin Yuan's expression remained unchanged; the Starry Sky Alliance was an Alliance formed by numerous special life forms to resist Peak Groups such as humans and the Zerg.

However, the structure of the Starry Sky Alliance was loose; after all, it was composed of many special life forms, and they could not possibly be as tightly knit as humans or the Zerg.

Yet it could not be underestimated either.

A huge part of the reason why the Shadow Clan tolerated Aodu and Shang Shan was precisely the Starry Sky Alliance behind them.

But while the Shadow Clan feared the Starry Sky Alliance, Human Civilization certainly did not.

Human Civilization had so many Evolvers extracting the Bloodline essence of countless special life forms to produce Bloodline potions, which were hot-selling commodities.

"That's right, Galaxy Star Master, we are indeed members of the Starry Sky Alliance," the huge meat mountain Shang Shan immediately said.

Things having reached this point, they could only bring out the Starry Sky Alliance.

"The Starry Sky Alliance."

Lin Yuan's mouth curved up. "Hahahahaha, I'm so scared."

As he laughed, terrifying Soul fluctuations mixed with World Power, transforming into a storm that swept toward Aodu.

"No."

Faced with the surging onslaught, Aodu's body shook, and with a loud bang, it turned into a massive blood mist, its Soul rapidly extinguishing as well.

"Aodu!"

The huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan shuddered; Aodu had not cultivated the Clone technique, so once it died, it was truly dead.

"You can accompany it as well."

Lin Yuan looked toward the huge meat mountain life form, not forgetting to collect Aodu's Bloodline essence and its spatial equipment, putting them all into his pocket.

Since Lin Yuan dared to come, he didn't care about the Starry Sky Alliance behind the two special life forms.

His teacher, Red Kun Star Lord, had once told him that in the Milky Way Star Territory, as long as he did not betray Human Civilization, he could act as he pleased, and Human Civilization would back him up for anything.

"Galaxy Star Master, I will remember you."

The huge meat mountain Shang Shan glared fiercely at Lin Yuan, seemingly activating some sort of method.

Its figure began to rapidly shrink, and finally, following the fluctuation of the ubiquitous spatial power, it vanished into the distance in an instant.

Being special life forms as well, Shang Shan was much more cautious than Aodu.

After learning that Human Civilization had taken over this star territory, it lowered the frequency of devouring planets.

In contrast, Aodu was still muddling along.

Its cautious personality allowed Shang Shan to prepare many life-saving methods for itself, and this spatial teleportation technique was something Shang Shan had traded at a huge cost.

It could teleport tens of light-years away in an instant.

"Yin and Yang Taiji, isolate."

Lin Yuan's pupils flashed with Yin and Yang, and the phantom of the Taiji world instantly enveloped a radius of nearly a hundred million miles, freezing space.

A world phantom was not a real world; it was a projection of the Internal World cast into the outside world, which could be many times larger than the Internal World.

Eighty million miles away, a sound resembling an impact against a wall came, and the huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan was forced to materialize with a dazed expression.

"This?"

Shang Shan looked around.

"Isolating space? A world phantom?"

"This is a method that can only be mastered with two thousand core space models, and the Internal World must reach at least six hundred thousand miles in radius. What kind of monster is this Galaxy Star Master?"

Shang Shan felt somewhat despairing.

Normally, the Internal World of an Eighth-Order Peak Evolver was around five hundred thousand miles in radius.

The larger the Internal World, the stronger the Eighth-Order Evolver's strength; relying on a massive Internal World, one could even influence external space and time.

If one's own spatial comprehension was sufficient, the influence exerted would be even greater.

Right now, Shang Shan was forcibly interrupted in its teleportation by this isolation force.

Hum.

Lin Yuan took a step forward.

He arrived above Shang Shan.

"Galaxy Star Master, I beg for mercy. As long as you can spare me once—"

The huge meat mountain life form instinctively began to beg for mercy; given the strength displayed by the Galaxy Star Master right now, it was simply not something he could resist.

Coupled with its teleportation method being forcibly interrupted and unable to be cast a second time in a short period, the huge meat mountain life form could only pray to Lin Yuan to stay alive.

Only—

Before it could finish speaking, Lin Yuan waved his hand, and massive World Power mixed with a Soul attack descended upon Shang Shan.

Swish.

The huge meat mountain life form Shang Shan turned into endless blood mist.

Then it was completely collected by Lin Yuan; the Bloodline essence of special life forms was quite valuable, and when made into Bloodline potions, a single portion could sell for thousands or tens of thousands of cosmic crystals.

"Hmm?"

"I can sense that this special life form is not dead."

Lin Yuan's expression became thoughtful as he looked distantly in a certain direction.

When killing Aodu, Lin Yuan went very smoothly, and the other party's death brought Lin Yuan no doubts.

But killing Shang Shan, Lin Yuan had a strange feeling.

"Karma. The main body of this special life form is still alive."

Lin Yuan thought silently to himself.

The Karma Rule was a very bizarre rule that could derive many special methods, such as curse-killing techniques.

As long as a life form was alive and had interactions with the outside world, Karma would naturally be born.

Therefore.

Entering the threshold of the Karma Rule was very easy.

For Eighth-Order Experts, almost all of them had entered the threshold of the Karma Rule.

And once entering the threshold of the Karma Rule, one could perceive various kinds of Karma; just like when Lin Yuan killed Aodu, the moment he completely killed the other party, due to Aodu's demise, his Karmic connection with it was severed.

However, when Lin Yuan killed Shang Shan just now, the other party died, but the connection between the two still remained, which meant Shang Shan was not dead.

This was the simplest application of the Karma Rule.

Of course, entering the Karma Rule was easy.

However, deepening and mastering it was extremely difficult, even harder than comprehending the complete Space Rules.

A distant star territory.

Within a cosmic Secret Realm.

"My Clone, which I painstakingly condensed over hundreds of thousands of years and spent countless costs on, just died like this?"

Shang Shan felt empty inside.

For a cautious special life form like it, a Clone was very important; the main body hid here while the Clone went out to explore, which was simply foolproof.

But now.

The Clone was gone.

Wanting to condense another one was out of the question without hundreds or thousands of years, and the key was that once condensed, it would be far inferior to the previous one.

"My Clone, my treasures, my cosmic crystals…"

Shang Shan was on the verge of tears.

"I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have hesitated."

Regret surged in Shang Shan's heart.

Normally speaking, after the Shadow Clan retreated, it should have followed them and left.

After all, the faction that was about to take charge of that star territory was Human Civilization.

However, Shang Shan harbored wishful thinking, thinking that even if Human Civilization took over, it wouldn't necessarily harbor any malice toward it.

Not every human Star Master rejected special life forms.

To take a step back.

Even if the newly appointed human Star Master harbored malice toward it, couldn't it just retreat then?

Human Civilization's newly appointed Star Masters were basically newly entered Eighth-Order Evolvers; wanting to trap a special life form close to Eighth-Order Peak like it was simply impossible.

Who would have thought that the Galaxy Star Master would be so monstrous?

"Terrifying."

"Too terrifying."

Thinking of the Galaxy Star Master's methods, Shang Shan couldn't help shivering.

From beginning to end, Shang Shan didn't have any thoughts of revenge in its heart.

Are you kidding? Revenge? Seek revenge against the Galaxy Star Master? Seek revenge against Human Civilization?

Even the Supreme Powerhouses of the great Starry Sky Alliance couldn't do it; what could a special life form like it rely on for revenge?

Being able to save its own little life was already not bad.
