Chapter 89 No one dared to stop him!
He was not afraid, but based his judgment on absolute rationality.
When the cost of eliminating a target far exceeds the expected benefits, and may even lead to serious losses for oneself, retreat is the optimal solution.
An overwhelming urge to retreat was growing in the hearts of the two powerful figures.
There's no other reason than that the power and mystery displayed by King Yancha were simply too terrifying!
The three of them joined forces and laid a trap, thinking they could easily defeat the Flame King.
But the result?
Instead of being severely injured or killed as expected, the Flame King was in a very good position. He even used their attacks and schemes to set a trap, using three Fire God Source Crystals to almost cripple the Blood Blade King, and then enslaved him when he was at his weakest!
This ability to adapt to changing circumstances, the ruthless and decisive methods, and the absolute confidence in their own strength and trump cards are chilling.
"Who knows if he has a second or third set of Vulcan Source Crystals hidden away? Or some other self-destructive or insidious treasure?"
Queen Irene pondered to herself, she had no desire to become the next Bloodblade King.
Although the Zerg Queen is powerful, her physical body is relatively fragile. If she is approached or targeted by that strange soul enslavement technique, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Especially the Flame King's ridiculously fast speed, combined with his soul attacks, poses a huge threat!
The King of Desolation was equally wary.
The mechanical race is not afraid of soul enslavement, but the Flame King is powerful not only in terms of soul control, but also in many other ways that pose a threat to it.
It doesn't have a divine body as large as that of the demon race to withstand it.
"And—Bloodblade King has been enslaved."
This fact was like a thorn, deeply embedded in the hearts of Queen Irene and King Desolation.
A powerful figure who was close to becoming an invincible king lost himself completely and became a loyal puppet of the enemy.
This outcome terrified them more than death itself, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow.
Nobody wants to die, much less live in this way, living without a sense of self.
For a moment, the scene fell into an eerie stalemate.
Queen Yilin and King Kuji stopped being aggressive and instead adopted a defensive and wary stance, even slowly moving backward to distance themselves from Lin Qiyue.
Lin Qiyue took in all of this and sneered inwardly.
He knew that his combination of punches had completely shattered the opponent's arrogance and confidence in victory.
"Now you know fear?"
Lin Qiyue's gaze swept over the two powerful figures and finally landed on Empress Yilin.
The Zerg Queen—a master of souls—controls hordes of Zerg and poses a significant threat, but her physical form is relatively easier to deal with.
The Desolate King of the Mechanical Race possesses formidable defense and fierce firepower, but its physical form is also a weakness.
He quickly weighed the options in his mind.
Should we continue to press our advantage and try to capture both of them as well?
Or should we—know when to quit while we're ahead?
Just then, another unexpected event occurred!
Rumble—!!!
In the distance, the pillar of light at the core of the Lava Purgatory Sea suddenly burst forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling brilliance!
The precious battle sword, adorned with interwoven crimson gold and silver, seemed to have finally absorbed enough energy, emitting a clear and resounding sword cry. It suddenly broke free from the beam of light, transforming into a streak of light that shot into the sky!
The most precious treasure has been fully revealed!
A sharp glint flashed in Lin Qiyue's eyes, and she made a decision in an instant.
"snort!"
He snorted coldly, his icy gaze sweeping over the wary Queen Irene and King Kuji in the distance.
"Consider yourselves lucky!"
Now is not the best time to press the advantage and expand the gains.
Although Bloodblade King was enslaved, his divine body was severely injured and he was temporarily unable to form a fighting force.
Although he appeared to be unharmed, the consecutive manipulation of the three strongest Vulcan Source Crystals, the extreme activation of the Wu Killing Wings, and the long battle had taken their toll.
If they were to force a fight to the death against the fully healthy Queen Irene and King Desolation, even if they won, it would likely be a Pyrrhic victory, and there was a high probability that others would reap the benefits.
Let's play it safe.
The most urgent task is to seize this precious sword that is perfectly suited to me!
With it, their offensive weaknesses will be addressed, and their strength will experience a qualitative leap!
There will be plenty of time later; we can deal with these guys then!
Before he finished speaking, the silver light of the Wu-Slaying Wings behind Lin Qiyue intensified, and he transformed into a silver lightning bolt that tore through the void, fiercely heading towards the incoming crimson-gold blade light!
Seeing this, Queen Irene and King Kuji did not take the opportunity to stop or pursue them. Instead, they breathed a slight sigh of relief and simultaneously pulled back a little distance.
They couldn't be happier that Lin Qiyue would go after Zhongbao and stay away from them!
This human Flame King is truly bizarre, with an endless stream of trump cards and ruthless, unpredictable methods. If we continue to confront him head-on, no one can guarantee that they won't become the next Blood Blade King.
Even the most precious treasures are hard to come by, but you have to be alive to claim them.
Preserving yourself first is the wise thing to do.
Meanwhile, the various kings who had been eager to intercept the treasure changed their expressions drastically when they saw the silver lightning bolt rushing towards them at an unparalleled speed. As if they had seen a plague god, they all hurriedly dodged to the sides in terror, instantly clearing a wide passage!
"It's King Yancha! Get out of the way!!"
"Let him pass! Don't block his way!!"
"Damn it, who dares to stop him at a time like this? Are they looking for death?!"
No one dared to step forward to stop them, not even to attempt to attack or interfere.
Are you kidding me!
The thrilling battle we just fought is still fresh in my mind!
Blood Blade King, a super strongman who was close to becoming an invincible king, was subdued before he could even self-destruct under the influence of three Fire God Source Crystals and enslavement methods!
Are these ordinary kings at their limit, peak, or even higher level enough to stand a chance against King Yancha?
They would probably be enslaved in a single encounter, not even qualified to become cannon fodder!
"Ha, only a madman would think of fighting the Flame King for such a precious treasure at this point!"
A human who had been crowned a high-ranking king whispered to his companion, still shaken.
"They can turn you into a loyal servant with ease, leaving you no room to resist! Even someone like Bloodblade King fell, so enslaving us is child's play for them, isn't it?"
"That's right, great treasures are wonderful, but you have to be alive to enjoy them. What use are the most precious treasures if you're enslaved? You'll just have to obediently offer them to your master anyway."
Another member of the alien race echoed in a low voice, his tone filled with lingering fear.
Everyone was keenly aware that, faced with the Flame King's terrifying ability to enslave souls, numerical superiority...
The siege tactic has become a joke!
Unless you have an absolute means of immunity or great resistance to soul attacks, going up there is just suicide!
Therefore, Lin Qiyue's future was bright and promising.
There was no obstruction, no attack.
With undeniable speed and power, he easily caught up with the crimson-gold blade of light.
The battle blade seemed to sense the same flame and spatial law aura emanating from Lin Qiyue, and its flight speed slowed slightly, the blade trembled, and emitted a series of pleasant humming sounds.
