Redirecting Trouble Elsewhere
"Hold on tight, everyone! We're going to have to make a series of space jumps!" Sea Emperor shouted to everyone.
"A celestial being has caught up?" Gu Ding frowned slightly. Only a celestial being could elicit such a reaction from the Sea Emperor.
"This is just one reason; I'll explain the details later." Sea Emperor said, directly controlling the spaceship to begin a space jump.
A series of tremors soon came from inside the spaceship, indicating that the spaceship was making continuous space jumps.
"Can they escape?" Liliath asked, expressing her concern.
"Short-distance space jumps are unlikely to shake off a Celestial-level powerhouse. However, if enough time is gained for long-distance Space Shuttle, it is possible." The spaceship had already begun its space jump, and the Sea Emperor's tension subsided slightly.
"What exactly happened?" Gu Ding finally asked.
"A celestial being has discovered us and is rapidly pursuing us, but that's not the real problem." The Sea Emperor finally had time to explain. "The problem I'm referring to is that Boyi is heading in our direction, and the Fourth Elder of the Dees Family Du Kao, is secretly following Boyi. He seems to have used some special method, Boyi hasn't noticed his presence at all. If we get caught up, we'll definitely be drawn into a battle between celestial beings, and that will be a huge problem."
"Wait, Sea Emperor, the Boyi you mentioned, is he the wheelchair-bound kid who took the blame for Gu Ding before?" Dokter had a very strong impression of Boyi. Because of Boyi's powerful performance three years ago, Dokter had always kept him at the top of his challenge list. Even after Boyi disappeared, Dokter never removed him from his challenge list.
"It should be him. I'm not entirely sure, but Gu Ding is absolutely certain it's him," Sea Emperor said, projecting Boyi's image onto the screen.
"They look alike, but there are too many differences..." With Liliath's keen eyesight, she could naturally discern some subtle differences, but she wasn't quite sure about the other person's identity.
"He is Boyi, I'm 100% sure," Hake suddenly said. "Although we didn't have much interaction before, I remembered his features the moment I saw him. Now, although he has changed a lot, even his aura has changed, the essence revealed in his eyes is still the same."
"That's what I told the Sea Emperor before," Gu Ding grinned after hearing this.
"Just how strong is Boyi now?" Dokter was more concerned about this question.
"He possesses the cultivation level of a Celestial God, and as for Combat Strength, it's roughly equivalent to the Fourth Elder of the Dees Family before they used their secret techniques. Since entering this plane, he has already killed four Celestial Gods from the Dees Family." The Sea Emperor's words shocked everyone.
"You mean, of the six instances of the Celestial Curtain Ritual, he was responsible for four?!" Dokter was incredulous. "You can't be mistaken, can you? It's only been three years. How could he have become so strong?"
"I have video recordings here, I can send them to you to watch yourself." The Sea Emperor didn't want to argue with Dokter's doubts. "Boyi was originally a true god, but he was sealed away for some reason. Although it is difficult to advance from a true god to a celestial god in three years, it is not impossible for him with enough resources. Besides, he may also have cultivation treasures that can accelerate time."
"That's true. If time could be accelerated a thousand times, three years would be equivalent to three thousand years. With his talent, becoming a god wouldn't be difficult at all." Dokter felt that the chances of Boyi using a time-acceleration artifact were indeed very high.
"Now is not the time to discuss Boyi; the chances of him attacking us are slim. What we should be thinking about now is how to deal with the gods who are pursuing us. As long as the seal of the Space-Time Scepter is lifted, we will never be able to leave this plane. We may escape the gods' pursuit once or twice, but given the current situation, we will be caught sooner or later."
"According to the information provided by the Sea Emperor, the Fourth Elder Combat Strength the Dees Family are already invincible in this plane. Now that the entire plane is sealed off, the gods of the Federal Government will be trapped in a jar sooner or later and killed one by one. Once these gods of the Federal Government are dead, we will have no chance to turn the tide and will only become prisoners of the Dees Family."
"Therefore, in the long run, what we need to do is not just escape the pursuit of the gods. Only by breaking the seal of the Space-Time Scepter can we have a chance to survive. Not only will our team be able to get out of the crisis, but the others who have arrived in this plane will also be saved."
"Of course, we must first resolve the current crisis. This crisis comes from a Celestial-level powerhouse. Whether in individual Combat Strength or group Combat Strength, they are formidable enemies that we cannot withstand. The only strategy is to escape. The problem now is that we do not have enough time to activate the spaceship's long-distance teleportation. It is difficult to shake off a Celestial-level powerhouse by relying solely on space jumps. Although he may tire over time and give up the pursuit, we must hold onto this hope and be prepared for the worst-case scenario where he relentlessly pursues us."
"The key issue now is that, as the weaker party, the longer we drag this out, the more unfavorable the overall situation will be for us. So we must shake off the pursuing gods as soon as possible and then lift the dimensional blockade."
The person who put forward this opinion was naturally Miko, the youngest member of the team.
"It'll be difficult to shake that guy off in a short time. Judging from the time we gain with each space jump, it will take at least three days for us to squeeze out time to complete the ultra-long-distance teleportation. That guy seems to be very good at speed; we're only slightly faster than him each time." The Sea Emperor was also very troubled by this matter.
"It should be Eleventh Elder. He's the fastest among the Elder Council. We were really unlucky to run into him. This guy is a stubborn eccentric. In his spare time, his favorite thing to do is race against spaceships. He won't give up easily if he can't catch up with our spaceship..." The news brought by Hake was also somewhat speechless.
"He likes to chase spaceships in his spare time... How boring must this guy be? Can't he find some other pastime?" Liliath couldn't help but complain.
"If that's the case, there's only one way to quickly shake him off. We'll lure him into the detection range of the Federal Government's Celestials, and then escape." Miko offered a very good idea. "The detection range of both sides should be about the same. Once the presence of a Celestial is detected, that Eleventh Elder should choose to abandon us and fight the other side."
