Lord Token

Almost at the same time that Fogreitai arrived, the video projected by Sea Emperor suddenly stopped, and all that Gu Ding and his group saw was that Moffitt's eyes, which were originally red with fire, turned blue with fire.

"Sea Emperor, what happened? Why did it suddenly stop?" Gu Ding asked in surprise, as this was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

"A terrifying being has descended, and the entire plane is now on the verge of collapse. All kinds of force fields and magnetic fields have completely entered a state of chaos. The monitoring area I established was instantly torn to shreds, and even the spacetime blockade set up by the Space-Time Scepter collapsed completely in an instant." The Sea Emperor's explanation left everyone dumbfounded.

"So, we can leave this plane now?" The main goal of this trip was to rescue Hake, and now that Hake has been rescued, when Sea Emperor said that the spacetime blockade had been lifted, Gu Ding's first thought was to return to the Main Plane.

"In the current situation, it is indeed possible to leave this plane, but the problem is that we simply cannot leave." The Sea Emperor's reply was somewhat incomprehensible.

"What do you mean by 'I can't leave'?" Liliath asked immediately.

"The space in this plane is extremely unstable right now. Even the shortest spatial jump is very likely to be caught in Space Turbulence, let alone long-distance spatial teleportation. Our spaceship can only use normal flight mode for now. In flight mode, it will take at least 36,000 years to return to the teleportation point." The Sea Emperor finally gave his answer, and it was clearly not the answer everyone wanted to hear.

"Then be prepared for long-distance teleportation at any time. Escape the moment that powerful figure leaves!" Gu Ding had no better solution and could only handle it this way.

On the battlefield, not only was Boyi hovering motionless in the void, but Odoqi and Weeks, who had been fighting, also stopped their battle.

Du Kao stood rooted to the spot, his eyes fixed on Moffitt in front of him. No, more accurately, he was staring at Fogreitai.

"No need to be so nervous. I'll just give the knife back to you, and then we can continue our conversation," said Fogreitai, lightly touching the tip of the blade with one finger, causing the longsword to shoot back into Du Kao's hand.

"Tell me the purpose of your descent." The longsword was in hand. Du Kao felt slightly relieved before speaking.

"My purpose in descending here? Since you were a lord in your past life, you should know very well, right? If your Inheritance Memory haven't unlocked this part yet, I wouldn't mind explaining it again." Fogreitai's tone was very calm, clearly believing he had the other party completely under his control.

"You want the Lord Token?" Du Kao's expression changed slightly.

As a lord, once you occupy your territory, you can apply to the king who governs that area to station yourself there. If the king approves, he will grant you Lord Token. This Lord Token not only symbolizes the lord's jurisdiction over the area but also represents the king's protection.

While the lord of a territory can change, the Lord Token cannot. Only the person holding the Lord Token is considered the true lord of the territory and has jurisdiction over it.

In the Main Plane, territory symbolizes resources; the larger the territory, the more resources it contains. Therefore, lords frequently vie for Lord Token.

Although Du Kao's Inheritance Memory were incomplete, this important information automatically surfaced the moment his memories were awakened.

"Clever. Now that you know, just hand it over. I'm sure you wouldn't want me to take it by force. My methods are always quite brutal. Or perhaps you prefer the brutal approach?" Fogreitai's tone carried a hint of mockery. After all, the other party was a former lord, and teasing him like this gave him a considerable sense of satisfaction.

"Whether I hand it over or not, you'll still attack me, so why should I choose to compromise? You're just a wisp of will descending. The pressure you bring is real, but it has no effect on me at all. Besides, no matter how strong your will is, it will be limited by the plane's capacity to bear it. I don't believe your Combat Strength can exceed the limit of a god."

"Hand over the Lord Token, and I can vouch for your release with my own integrity." Fogreitai stared intently at Du Kao, awaiting his reply.

"Do you think I'd believe that?" Du Kao shook his head. "According to my memory, it won't be long before I regain my Lord-level cultivation. Are you really willing to let me go, and then let me grow stronger so I can come back to you to compete for the Lord Token?"

He knew perfectly well that the other party's so-called personal guarantee was utter nonsense. Someone from this world, lacking experience, might believe it, given the other party's high-ranking Lord-level powerhouse. But his memories from his past life told him clearly that such promises were meaningless. Let alone Lord-level powerhouses, even king-level powerhouses could easily break their promises, reneging on their word the very next second. He had witnessed far too much of this in his past life.

"It seems your memory recovery is much better than I expected." Hearing this, Fogreitai no longer concealed anything; he knew he couldn't fool the other. "Although I am merely a Will Projection, and my Combat Strength is limited by this plane, you should know very well that you have no chance against me; the only outcome is my annihilation."

"Enough with the nonsense, let's fight! Do you think I'm afraid of you?! If you want the Lord Token from me, then come and get it based on your own ability!"

As soon as Du Kao finished speaking, his waist-length hair began to grow again, increasing from about one meter to two meters, three meters, four meters... and the color changed from gold to silver.

His originally normal human body began to turn translucent, and his skin emitted a faint white glow, making him look extremely eerie.

"The second transformation of the Super Metamorphosis ..." Fogreitai immediately recognized the reason for his change. "With your cultivation level, rashly using the second transformation is suicidal and extremely foolish. I don't even need to do anything; it won't be long before your physical body disintegrates on its own."

"It's better to die by my own hand than by yours. Besides, I'd like to take someone down with me before I die, and I think you're quite suitable." After the transformation, Du Kao's aura became extremely dangerous, and his confidence was noticeably stronger. His gaze towards his opponent also turned menacing. (To be continued~^~)
