Chapter 83 Robbery! (Fifth Update)
"Greetings, King Yancha!"
"King Yancha, you've arrived too!"
"King Yancha, this way please!"
Greetings rose and fell in waves.
Lin Qiyue nodded slightly in response, her expression remaining calm, but she did not distance herself from him.
Soon, surrounded by several key figures, he arrived at a small area in front of the human camp.
Those gathered here are mostly renowned kings of the human race who have achieved great fame in the Ninth Domain Outer Battlefield.
Lin Qiyue's gaze swept over the people present. Apart from Star Sword King, there were several other powerful individuals whose auras were either sharp, profound, or ethereal. Clearly, none of them were easy to deal with.
"What's the situation now?"
Lin Qiyue asked directly.
A human king at the pinnacle of power, clad in a robe of stars and exuding an aura as deep as the sea, stepped forward; he was none other than the Star Sword King.
He had a handsome face and carried an ancient longsword on his back. He cupped his hands to Lin Qiyue and said, "King Yancha, the situation is like this. According to our previous detection and the intelligence provided by the virtual universe system, that treasure that is suspected to have fire and space attributes is now in a semi-manifested state. The law fluctuations it emits are becoming more and more intense. According to this trend, it will be fully revealed in one to two days at most. At that time, its specific form and location will be completely exposed."
Lin Qiyue nodded slightly, casting the light towards the core area of the Lava Purgatory Sea in the distance, which was churning endlessly and contained boundless destructive energy.
The space there was even more distorted, with faintly visible streaks of crimson-gold flame laws and silver spatial cracks intertwining and flashing. At the center, a huge energy vortex seemed to be slowly taking shape, emitting a heart-palpitating fluctuation.
"Why not just go down and remove it before it's fully formed?"
Lin Qiyue raised a seemingly straightforward question.
Upon hearing this, Star Sword King gave a wry smile and explained, "King Flamebreaker, you are unaware of this. The location where that treasure is hidden is not on the edge of the Purgatory Sea, but in the very core of the entire Lava Purgatory Sea. The environment there is extremely harsh, filled not only with terrifyingly high temperatures and chaotic energy powerful enough to annihilate even a high-level King-level divine body, but also with countless randomly generated and incredibly powerful spatial rifts and spatial fragment vortexes. Even a King-level peak expert, without special protective measures or a powerful treasure to shield them, would likely be severely injured before even reaching the core if they ventured in rashly."
The other king, Frost King, with a cold face and an aura of icy coldness, added.
"More importantly, even if someone were to manage to withstand the pressure and danger and force their way to the core, touching the treasure that hasn't even fully emerged yet—it would be almost impossible for them to safely bring it out. At that point, they would become the target of everyone's wrath! How could the hundreds of top-ranking kings from various races gathered on the periphery sit idly by and watch the treasure be taken away by one person? They would inevitably launch a coordinated attack. In that extreme environment, trying to fight their way out with the treasure—it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven. The most likely outcome would be losing both the person and the treasure, or even perishing on the spot."
Star Sword King nodded: "That's right. So, although all the forces have already arrived, they have all tacitly chosen to wait on the periphery, waiting for the moment when the treasure is fully revealed, triggering unusual phenomena, or even possibly flying out of the core area on its own. That will be the real beginning of the struggle. Going down now would be tantamount to suicide, and utterly meaningless."
After listening, Lin Qiyue understood.
Indeed, with so many top experts eyeing the scene, making a preemptive strike might not be a wise move, and could instead make one a expendable asset and a target.
The best strategy is to patiently wait for the right moment, when the treasure is revealed and the situation is most chaotic, and then use strength, speed, and—some special means—to snatch the chestnut from the fire.
"I see, thank you for letting me know."
Lin Qiyue nodded slightly to Star Sword King, Frost King, and the others.
"You're too kind, King Yancha."
Star Sword King laughed.
"This battle for the treasure is extremely dangerous. The Zerg Queen Irene, the Machine King of the Desolate Realm, and the Demon King of the Bloodblade Realm are all formidable enemies. If our human camp can work together, our chances will be much greater."
His words implied a desire for an alliance.
Faced with the top experts from other major races, it is inevitable for the human camp to form alliances.
Lin Qiyue naturally understood the meaning behind it and calmly said, "In the struggle for opportunities, everyone relies on their own methods. But if anyone wants to join forces against our human race, we should unite against them."
He did not make any explicit promises, but he did state his basic position.
Upon hearing this, Star Sword King and the others nodded, knowing that at their level, it was impossible to force a close alliance; having such a consensus was enough.
Time passed slowly until this moment, when the energy fluctuations in the core area of the Lava Purgatory Sea in the distance suddenly intensified!
At the very center, a burst of crimson-gold light suddenly erupted, forming a pillar of light that reached the heavens and the earth. An even larger and purer aura of fire and spatial laws swept out like a tsunami!
"here we go!"
"A precious treasure is about to be born!"
A chorus of exclamations erupted around them, and the gazes of all the powerful figures instantly sharpened, locking onto the source of the beam of light.
Lin Qiyue's gaze was as tangible as a physical object, piercing through the churning magma and the violent energy turbulence, and locking onto the core of the pillar of light.
Deep within the dazzling light interwoven with crimson and gold, the outline of a shape can be vaguely seen slowly coalescing and becoming clear.
It was a battle sword about three meters long, its entire body flowing with a luster like a mixture of lava and stars!
The blade is slightly thick and has smooth lines, exuding a sense of power. There are natural patterns on the handle and blade that resemble burning flames, with subtle spatial laws patterns emerging.
Even before it was fully born, it already exuded a terrifying sharpness and heat that could cut through all things and burn away the void!
"A powerful offensive battle sword!"
Lin Qiyue's pupils contracted slightly, and a strong tremor surged in her heart.
It wasn't just visual confirmation; his body and his soul seemed to resonate with it, every cell cheering and conveying an almost instinctive desire—to obtain it!
This battle sword is attracting him!
"We absolutely must get it!"
The thought flashed through Lin Qiyue's mind like lightning, incredibly clear and unwavering.
It was an intuition that this precious battle sword was a perfect match for him!
However, just as the treasure's form was revealed, a sudden change occurred!
"be mine!!"
"Rob it!"
"Get out of here!"
Some powerful figures who had long been unable to suppress their greed and impulses, mostly high-level kings, knew that their hopes were slim when surrounded by top experts, so they wanted to take the initiative.
They instantly charged toward the center of the pillar of light like sharks that had smelled blood!
This even includes two demon kings at the peak of their power—they seem to want to take advantage of the chaos to strike first, or at least stir up trouble.
However, just as Star Sword King and the others had predicted, rushing toward the treasure at this moment was no different from moths flying into a flame!
"Hehehe—I can't wait any longer~"
Queen Irene of the Zerg let out a silvery laugh, but the laugh was icy cold.
