Fire God Source Crystal

"Rumble~~"

Lian Luo was enveloped by the enormous Fire Beast God phantom. Then, the phantom suddenly flapped its wings, and Lian Luo shot out like a cannonball, hurtling toward the nearest Stele-shaped Spaceship!

"You can't escape!" The Mechanical Race person controlling everything from afar still believed that Lian Luo was trying to flee the Netherflame Domain.

He swiftly issued an order: Stop him!

As his order was given.

"Buzz~~~" Among the nine formations, each consisting of ten thousand F9-class Mechanical Puppets, the ten thousand Mechanical Puppets of the formation closest to Lian Luo simultaneously began gathering energy in their chests.

Boom!

More than ten thousand streams of flame shot toward Lian Luo at once, converging into a gigantic fire dragon several hundred meters thick!

But Lian Luo's Star River Straight Line movement technique was incredibly nimble! The Fire Beast God phantom's wings gave a slight flap, and he easily dodged aside. The enormous fire dragon streaked past the edge of the phantom's wings.

"Dodge all you want. Let's see how long you can keep dodging!" Disdain flashed through the Mechanical Race person's eyes when he saw Lian Luo evade the attack.

The next moment—

"Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~ Buzz~~"

The nine formations took turns gathering energy and taking turns attacking!

Yet no matter how the Mechanical Puppets attacked, Lian Luo always managed to evade the concentrated energy blasts at the very last instant!

Gradually, he came within less than a hundred thousand kilometers of one of the Stele-shaped Spaceships.

Just as he was about to attack that spaceship, a sly gleam flashed in the Mechanical Race person's eyes. "The base spaceships of my Netherflame Domain aren't dead objects!"

"Whoosh!"

Protected by more than ten thousand Mechanical Puppets, the Stele-shaped Spaceship that Lian Luo had nearly reached suddenly sped away from him. Meanwhile, the other eight Stele-shaped Spaceships continued attacking Lian Luo. The instant Lian Luo changed direction, the nine Stele-shaped Spaceships would do the same, keeping him surrounded at all times.

Moreover, Lian Luo would never be able to attack the stele-shaped base spaceships!

"This Blood-Robed Marquis is incredibly fast. Even the combined attacks of the Mechanical Puppets under my control can't touch him!" As Lian Luo evaded the flaming energy attacks again and again, surprise appeared in the Mechanical Race person's eyes.

In his view, Lian Luo was merely a Marquis fighting in a place like the Nine Nether Starfield. Among Marquises, he was probably at the bottom. Every energy attack from the nine formations of his Netherflame Domain was equivalent to an Early Marquis attack.

As long as one hit, it would definitely severely wound the opponent!

Yet he had never expected the other party's speed to be so terrifying. Every energy attack was evaded.

"This can't continue. These attacks are only wasting energy!" The Mechanical Race person quickly adjusted his tactics. "Use the forbidden technique of the Netherflame Domain!"

"Sigh, using the forbidden technique will probably damage my Netherflame Domain badly. I'll have to spend over a hundred thousand Yulan Units on repairs afterward. Still, killing a Marquis will make it all worthwhile!"

Yulan Units were the Mechanical Race's currency. Two Yulan Units were approximately equal to one Chaos Unit.

Using the forbidden technique once cost tens of thousands of Chaos Units, which showed just how formidable this move was.

"Buzz~~"

The surfaces of the ninety thousand F-class Mechanical Puppets and the nine base spaceships simultaneously lit up with red light. The energy cores within them were slowly being activated to their limits. Once the energy finished accumulating, they would unleash that forbidden technique!

But Lian Luo would not give him another chance.

In truth, whether in his previous battles against other alien Immortals or in this battle against the Mechanical Race person, he had never used his full strength.

After all, the Fire Beast God resembled the Vermilion Bird from ancient Chinese mythology. Although it was not as adept at speed as the Wind Beast God or Thunder Beast God, when it came to short-range bursts, the Fire Beast God ranked first among the innate Beast Gods!

His burst speed was absolutely not something these Mechanical Puppets could compare to.

"Almost there! Only eighty thousand kilometers left!" Seeing red light begin to flash over every base spaceship and Mechanical Puppet, Lian Luo silently calculated the distance. At my fastest speed, I can cross this distance in less than a second! These spaceships can't possibly accelerate to light speed and enter the Dark Universe!

"Shriek!"

The Fire Beast God phantom around Lian Luo suddenly let out a long cry! Immediately afterward, the flames covering his body began to swell, and then the swelling flames directly exploded.

"Rumble~~"

Propelled by the exploding flames, Lian Luo transformed into a streak of fire. In an instant, he crossed the sky and arrived before the base spaceship surrounded by more than ten thousand Mechanical Puppets.

Then, he raised his sword!

With a single slash, a blood-red sword light instantly cleaved through more than ten thousand kilometers of space!

"How can this be? How can his acceleration be this absurd?" The Mechanical Race person in the distance stared with wide eyes. Then he saw the more than ten thousand Mechanical Puppets, along with the base spaceship protected by a shield capable of withstanding Early Marquis Immortal attacks, all severed by that blood-red sword light and stripped of all power!

"He isn't an Early Marquis!" Fury appeared on the Mechanical Race person's face. "My Netherflame Domain!"

In a panic, the Mechanical Race person tried to retrieve the other eight base spaceships and their Mechanical Puppets!

But now that Lian Luo had revealed his strength, how could he possibly let him retreat so easily? Besides, in preparation for the forbidden technique, all the base spaceships and Mechanical Puppets had been accumulating energy at full capacity, retaining only part of their power supply.

In this hurried moment, the base spaceships simply could not build up speed.

Very soon, Lian Luo caught up with another base spaceship. Using the same method, he disabled it and its more than ten thousand Mechanical Puppets, then put them into World Rings.

"Whoosh!"

The blood-red sword light flashed, and another base spaceship along with its Mechanical Puppets fell into Lian Luo's hands!

"Swish!" "Swish!" "Swish!"

In less than half a minute, six of the nine base spaceships had been disabled by Lian Luo and put into World Rings.

The remaining three base spaceships finally accelerated into the Dark Universe!

"Hmph! You think entering the Dark Universe means you can escape?" Lian Luo charged into the Dark Universe without hesitation and forcibly seized another base spaceship!

The remaining two base spaceships suddenly appeared hundreds of millions of li away in space, then were collected by someone.

"Found you!" Lian Luo smiled!

"Damn it! Of the nine nodes of my Netherflame Domain, that human took seven!" Inside a massive stellar fragment, the Mechanical Race person's heart bled.

He put the two intact base spaceships that had flown back into World Rings. Looking at the blood-red figure pursuing him from behind, a ruthless glint flashed through his eyes.

"Human, Blood-Robed Marquis! Don't push me!" A black spherical object appeared in the Mechanical Race person's hand. Dark-red light faintly flickered across its surface, radiating a heart-palpitating aura.

Lian Luo recognized the object in his hand at a glance.

A Fire God Source Crystal, whose power rivaled the self-destruction of a Marquis-level peak Immortal!
