Chapter 357 Intimidation
After exchanging ideas, a great possibility emerged before them: "The Star-Sealing Demon is about to be born," the White Bat King said with a hint of excitement.
Suk nodded in agreement. The current situation clearly indicates that the sealed star is about to be born, which is why this change in the forbidden space has occurred.
The two then exchanged a few more casual words before ending the call.
In a forbidden space filled with flames, several powerful figures stood high above.
"Have you finished talking with the Heavenly Calamity King?" one of them asked slowly. With his loose purple hair and domineering aura that ran deep into his bones, and with endless lightning flashing in his eyes, he was none other than the Ancient Thunder King, a three-star powerhouse of the Hong Alliance, at the limit of the King-level.
King Gu Lei was originally wandering in the Star Tower when he encountered the forbidden area guards going berserk. He then discovered that among the nearby comrades displayed by the army system were two people, including King Tian Zai. So he specially asked King Bai Fu, who was on good terms with them, to go and say hello in advance.
"There's been quite a stir lately, with many rumors circulating that the treasures left behind by the fallen powerful figures of the Ice River Ruins are on the bodies of King Tian and his group—" King Gu Lei narrowed his eyes, licked his lips, and a sense of unease rose within him.
That's the wealth of thousands of kings; who wouldn't be tempted?
But under the "deterrence" of the military's detection system, no one dared to directly kill a strong member of their own faction!
Killing comrades and allies of the same faction is a capital offense! It will result in a joint hunt by numerous races within the human faction, as these are some of the ironclad rules of the military system jointly established by humans and countless other races.
The military system is inviolable.
However, it is not without its flaws.
For example, military surveillance relies on detecting and observing combat to make judgments. So-called "reconnaissance" relies on instruments, which naturally have limitations.
"We need to think of a way—" King Gu Lei's eyes grew increasingly sinister. "The emergence of the sealed star this time might be an opportunity."
If it's an enemy, it'll be a bit troublesome, but if it's one of our own, with the intention of scheming against the unsuspecting and a covert attack, there's still hope.
After ending the call with the White Bat King, Suk received several more calls from allies in his faction, all within a 10-meter radius.
Human allies and comrades within a radius of hundreds of millions of kilometers have also encountered some troubles, and they all suspect that the sealed star is about to be born.
Suk's mind raced with thoughts. When the Star Tower was born, all sorts of strange phenomena would occur. Furthermore, the interconnected forbidden spaces would naturally draw together many powerful alien races from the surrounding area, ultimately leading to a bloody massacre.
"Is it really just good luck that I encountered this situation on my first visit?" Suk thought to himself.
He wasn't a Ninth Tribulation cultivator, and he didn't feel any strong sense of summoning.
"It's probably just a coincidence."
Afterwards, they ventured down through the forbidden zones in the Star Tower. After passing the eleventh forbidden zone, they no longer encountered any attacks from the forbidden zone guards.
call.
The 23rd forbidden space is a vast world of ice and snow.
At this moment, three groups of immortal gods from different races were gathered in the sky above the icy world.
One of these groups is the demon race, consisting of 31 immortal gods from other races, all of whom are at the King level, and four of them are members of the demon race.
The other group—the Machine Race—was slightly smaller, consisting of 23 alien kings, three of whom were members of the Machine Race.
The mechanical race is small in number, and any mechanical race king represents a terrifying mechanical empire, extremely frightening.
The last group was the Zerg camp, consisting of only seventeen alien kings, but their momentum was no less than that of the other two groups.
Because among these seventeen alien kings, there was a terrifying Zerg immortal being.
It was a Zerg warrior that was over 30 meters tall, incredibly robust, and covered with an extremely thick shell.
The front of its chest is covered with menacing spikes, and its thick, powerful, and bent hind legs support its body.
The overall impression it gives is one of solidity and ferocity! Like a tank, it exudes a brave and fierce aura. Its carapace is entirely fiery red, and even its well-protected compound eyes are fiery red.
This terrifying Zerg immortal being is called "Yan Tan King". He comes from the Yan Tan Zerg, a branch of the extremely powerful Tiger Beetle Clan among the Class A Zerg. Originally, he was just another ignorant Zerg warrior among countless others. However, when he was summoned to battle by the Queen Mother, he consumed some special treasure, which caused him to evolve and gain an independent will.
Not all Zerg warriors are created equal; some have greater potential, while others have less. "Yan Tan King," however, was originally a king of the Tiger Beetle race, forged through endless slaughter, making him incredibly terrifying! According to information, he possesses strength approaching that of a quasi-king, invincible being!
As soon as Suk entered, he saw that the three camps were in a stalemate.
Meanwhile, all three forces took notice of Suk's small team that had just arrived.
"Humans?"
"The other person is a person, no, there's something strange on their shoulder."
Knowing the situation was dangerous, Aloy had returned to the World Ring; only Suker and his companion were visible.
The wine fern king.
The Wine Fern King originally belonged to the demon race, but after being enslaved, it naturally broke away from the demon race and was no longer connected to the demon race's military system. Therefore, when the demon race encountered it, they could not determine its origin.
The Wine Fern King has also changed; unless you encounter someone you know, no one else can recognize him.
"We didn't encounter a single one before, but now there are so many Kings gathered in this forbidden space? It seems they were indeed guided here by the Star Tower." Suk was slightly surprised when he saw the three groups of alien Kings who were subtly hostile to each other in the distance.
Including his side, there are now four factions gathered together, but in terms of numbers and momentum, his side is the weakest.
The kings within the three factions were also discussing the newly arrived humans.
"Who is that? Do you know?"
"I've never seen him before, and I don't know him."
"It's very unfamiliar."
With hundreds of thousands of alien races crowned as kings, each belonging to different factions, gathering information on them was no easy task.
Many people may have heard of the Calamity King, but they don't know what he looks like.
Suddenly a voice rang out.
"I know who he is." The speaker was a burly, green-skinned, one-eyed alien with two large fangs protruding from the corners of his mouth. He grinned, his voice slightly excited. "He is the Calamity King!"
Like a stone thrown into still water, his words startled everyone.
"The Calamity King? That lucky guy who obtained a huge fortune from the Glacial Ruins?"
"Is it really him?"
"Wasn't he just on the Ice River Continent not long ago? How come he's already at the Star Tower?"
The Calamity King has recently become famous, and many kings have discussed him. However, his fame is not due to his strength and achievements, but rather "luck"!
The fall of thousands of kings is already an extremely shocking topic.
What's even more legendary is that such a huge fortune was ultimately "picked up" by someone in such an easy way—without going through countless hardships or fighting to the death. They became rich overnight with ease. Who wouldn't be envious?
In the eyes of many kings, Suk was a walking gold mine.
"What a calamity king! How dare he show his face here!"
Upon learning of Suk's identity, the gazes of the three factions' kings changed.
A hostile, greedy, lustful, and jealous gaze was fixed on Suk.
Suk could clearly sense and understand why they reacted that way.
He secretly became more vigilant.
With the birth of the Zhenfeng Star imminent, countless kings are gathering. Su Ke doesn't want to cause trouble, but if these alien races want to make a move, then he'll have no choice but to fight back.
"King of Calamity." A cold, hoarse voice suddenly came from the group of alien immortals in the demon race camp. The speaker was a blue wolf that was more than ten kilometers long and resembled a mountain range. There were three strange secret patterns on its forehead that looked like knife marks. Its scarlet eyes emitted a cold light as it stared at Suk as if it were sizing up its prey.
"The Demon Race's Heavenly Wolf?" Suk asked coldly.
"Tianlang" belongs to one of the eighteen royal families of the demon race. The first-ranked one is the leader, Lord Tianlang, followed by Venerable Tianhua. Although Venerable Tianhua is at the limit of the Universe Venerable, he possesses combat power comparable to an ordinary Universe Lord.
The Sirius race is extremely ferocious by nature, and their genetic makeup is inherently six times that of humans!
However, the overall strength of the Sirius Clan is relatively low among the royal families of the demon race.
"King of Calamity, you're unlucky to have met me here. Hand over the treasure and I'll spare your life." The blue wolf revealed a ferocious expression.
A flurry of gazes fell upon Suk, even the "Flame Tank King" of the Zerg camp and the three mechanical powerhouses leading the mechanical camp stared at him with icy eyes.
It is common knowledge that the Calamity King possesses immense wealth.
Moreover, the Heavenly Calamity King's deterrent power is not as strong as that of the Flame Tank King.
"Threatening me?" Suk laughed.
"This isn't a threat, it's advice." The Blue Wolf smiled knowingly. "You're all alone, the weakest of the four of us. In this forbidden space, you can't even teleport, and we won't give you the chance to use your divine kingdom to teleport. Do you think you can escape? If you know what's good for you, leave the treasure behind, and you might save your life."
"So, you want to team up against me?" Suk looked around.
The powerful figures from the three factions—the Mechanical Race, the Demon Race, and the Zerg Race—remained silent, their eyes darting around.
Although the four parties usually fight each other, when it comes to matters involving their interests, they will cooperate tacitly without saying it out loud.
"King of Calamity, I've heard you possess a very powerful auxiliary plant life form." One of the three mechanical beings in the mechanical faction, whose body was covered in a layer of dark blue battle armor and whose entire body seemed to be cast in metal, making him look like a metal man at first glance, spoke up.
"Even if your plant life is powerful, there are three of us. If it really comes down to a fight, can you defeat the combined forces of the three of us? How about this: you give each of us 1 trillion Chaos Units of treasure, and we'll let you off the hook and stop opposing you. What do you think? Do you want the treasure, or your life?" The machine race's words sounded gentler, but were secretly full of threat.
Many of the newly appointed kings remained silent, all staring at Suk, radiating immense pressure.
If we can get 1 trillion Chaos Units from the Calamity King without fighting, that would be great; even if it's divided among everyone, it'll be quite a lot.
After all, the Calamity King itself is one thing, but if its supposedly powerful auxiliary plant life forms were to unleash their full power, it would be quite troublesome.
Even if they manage to defeat this Calamity King, there might be many casualties among them.
"Hahaha—" Suk suddenly threw his head back and laughed, his laughter full of sarcasm.
"King of Calamity, what are you laughing at?"
"How ridiculous. Aren't you machine race intelligent life forms? How come you're still dreaming?" Suk said with a sneer.
The machine race member's expression darkened, and he said coldly, "So you're unwilling?"
The atmosphere immediately became tense.
Suk coldly replied, "If you want my treasure, come and take it yourself."
"Calamity King, you're courting death!" King Nayantan of the Zerg faction's voice was deep and thunderous. "We'll give you one more chance: hand over the treasure to save your life, or fight us."
Suk chuckled softly, "I want you all to die."
The kings from the three factions all changed their expressions, their faces showing anger.
This King of Calamity is so ungrateful, so arrogant and rude.
The three factions had dozens of kings, including the "Yan Tan King," who was nearly invincible among kings, three mechanical immortals who were only slightly inferior to the Immortal Zerg Queen, and the incomparably ferocious demon royal family's Tianlang.
If humans obediently bowed their heads and offered gifts, that would be one thing.
Now, provoked by humans, all three parties are finding themselves in a difficult position.
"Since that's the case, then don't blame us for being impolite, Calamity King. You asked for this."
"Poor humans, you'll regret this later."
"Go! Kill him, and the treasure will be ours!"
In what seemed like a brief, silent exchange, lured by wealth, the three powerful factions, each confident in their own strength, launched a coordinated attack!
Seeing the three factions of kings launching their attack with great momentum, Suk merely sneered.
A buzzing sound filled the air as spatial fluctuations solidified—this was a spatial blockade cast by Eloivan's avatar.
Now we can't teleport anymore.
Then, vines surged out from behind Suk like a tide, rapidly spreading and growing larger, spreading out like python waves. In the blink of an eye, a giant vine plant, as huge as a star and occupying millions of kilometers of space, stretched across the forbidden area.
!! ?
The kings of the three factions who witnessed this scene paused for a moment.
Although everyone knew that the King of Human Calamities possessed a terrifying plant life form, seeing is believing. When they actually saw this plant life form, they found it to be even more terrifying than they had imagined.
Feeling the terrifying and overwhelming pressure of the Death Star Vine surging from all directions, some of the Kings began to tremble with fear.
Aren't they being too presumptuous?
Could such a single plant life truly kill the King of Calamities?
"This—" Yan Tanwang turned his head, his compound eyes, protected by his thick carapace, peered at the vines that surrounded him like mountains and seas, radiating a terrifying pressure. A look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
The powerful figures from the three factions simultaneously sensed the immense size and oppressive aura of the Death Star Vine, and instinctively chose to move closer together, hoping to join forces.
"King of Calamity, do you think you can defeat us with just this one immortal plant?" The Sirius, which was originally tens of kilometers long and resembled a mountain range, looked at the vines around it that were many times larger than itself. After a moment of shock, it still roared at Suk in the distance with a tough attitude.
It acknowledged that the plant's vitality was unexpectedly strong, but its side was by no means weak either.
If they really go all out, it's hard to say who will win.
Regardless of Sirius's stubbornness, Suk simply smiled and then took something out of his world ring.
