Fishing
Three days later.
"Young Lu, we've spotted a target Alien Race, a Peak World Lord!" The Lord Shen's excited voice rang in Lu Yan'an's ears. After all, this was the first prey they had encountered since arriving on the Yuanming Continent.
"Hmm? World Lord?" Lu Yan'an asked with some surprise. He was extremely puzzled that the first Alien Race he encountered was only a Peak World Lord. You see, although members below the Immortal level make up five-ninths of the total number of people here, most World Lord have teams! It's impossible for a lone World Lord to be wandering around here.
Being World Lord here is no easy feat; simply traveling within the secret realm is no simple task. After all, not everyone possesses wealth comparable to that of Universe Master, like Lu Yan'an.
Even the wealthiest World Lord typically possess assets of only a few dozen Hunyuan Unit, and their spaceships certainly can't compare to Lu Yan'an's. After all, how could anyone else afford to purchase spaceships as extravagantly as him?
"Project his movements!" Lu Yan'an ordered, then asked, "And while we're at it, find out the model of his detector?"
"His detector is extremely outdated, a generic version used throughout the universe." After a moment, the Lord Shen's leisurely voice came, "This kind of detector is basically the lowest-end version here, no different from having none at all, and it's impossible for it to detect our probe."
"Hmm?" After hearing the results of the Lord Shen's detection, Lu Yan'an's eyes flashed with deep doubt. "You mean he's just an ordinary World Lord, with only the lowest-level detector, came to the Yuanming Continent alone to hunt down Alien Race without any teammates? And he just happened to be detected by our detector?"
Upon hearing Lu Yan'an's question, the previously excited Lord Shen's expression immediately froze. "You mean, this World Lord is bait?"
"Otherwise, what other possibilities are there? If he is also a genius World Lord came out of a top power to gain experience, he would definitely buy a good detector! He just let us find out that he was using a low-end detector so carelessly. Isn't this a trap?" Lu Yan'an analyzed with great wisdom.
"I bet his teammates are getting ready to mess with me right now!"
Millions of kilometers away, a figure exuding the aura of a storm exclaimed excitedly, "Big Brother, a new target has appeared!"
"Hmm?" The voice came from a nearby yellowish-brown asteroid. The next moment, a figure suddenly flew out from the asteroid and asked, "What target? Have some fish come to eat?"
The figure, exuding an aura of storm, slowly revealed its face. It was a lean werewolf with extremely rough skin, making it appear unlike a normal human.
He said happily, "Big brother, this time the target is a big fish, a Peak World Lord! And he also has a large detector. But don't worry, his technology isn't as advanced as ours. I have my hands on his every move."
The figure that had emerged from the asteroid slowly came to a stop in front of him. The earthy yellow Immortal Divine Power dissipated, revealing a werewolf with even rougher skin. His face was covered with scars from the accident, and one look was enough to tell that he was no pushover!
"Peak World Lord? And a large detector? These are the Core Member of a major power, each of them is extremely wealthy." The rather weathered earth-elemental werewolf exclaimed excitedly, "It's no wonder we brothers made a fortune by encountering such fat sheep!"
The wind-elemental werewolf immortal said, "Hahaha, big brother, look, this kid is quite cautious and won't take the bait!" As he spoke, he directly displayed the projection inside Lu Yan'an's spaceship.
"Don't rush, let me observe his logic and behavior first! Core Member from such powerful forces are usually quite cautious when they come to places like the Outer Region Battlefield! I need to devise a plan on how and where to strike," the Earth-type Werewolf Immortal continued.
The lean man said disdainfully, "Brother, this is just the outermost edge of the Yuanming Continent. The strongest people who come here are only Feng Hou. You and I are both at the peak of the Military Lord level. Even if someone at the Early Marquis wanted to kill us, it would be impossible."
"We don't have any deep-seated hatred for them, so there's no way they would burn their divine power against us. What's the point of gathering forces to deal with an ordinary Peak World Lord? We'll just go up and kill them!"
"Even if he is Core Member of those major forces, no matter how powerful he is, he can't possibly defeat two of our peak military leaders as a World Lord!" the wind-elemental werewolf immortal urged, already eager to slaughter this fat sheep, Lu Yan'an, and skin him alive!
The Earth-type Werewolf Immortal fell into deep thought. He admitted that his younger brother was right. He had considered things more deeply; it wasn't as simple as just leaving people alive. While attacking one's own kind was commonplace, it was still somewhat dishonorable. The Core Member of these powerful forces all had mentors. Once an attack was made, no one could be left alive! Otherwise, the consequences would be dire!
Although these "geniuses" possess immense wealth, they also face considerable troubles and must proceed with caution.
Suddenly, the Earth-type Werewolf Immortal's eyes lit up. "Then let's do it this way..."
In the distance, after repeatedly scanning with the detector, Lu Yan'an discovered that there was indeed no one else around except for the World Lord. Looking at the projection of the young man in front of him projected by the detector, Lu Yan'an quickly verified his previous guess from some details.
A Peak World Lord cultivating in a secret realm frequented by Immortals with minimal protection—how could he dare? There's absolutely no other possibility than him being a stuntman! However, it seems his accomplices must possess far more advanced detectors than he does; otherwise, this situation would be impossible.
In fact, Lu Yan'an is now quite certain that his accomplices are watching his every move closely with even more advanced detection equipment!
The next moment, his conjecture became a bloody reality.
A laser cannon imbued with the aura of Immortal Divine Power silently attacked from afar, its ultimate target seemingly the E-class spaceship that Lu Yan'an was aboard!
"Good heavens, if we hadn't been prepared beforehand, we would have really been in trouble!" Because Lu Yan'an had already unfolded his Heart World Heart Power, covering an area of millions of kilometers, he discovered the Lu Yan'an cannon immediately.
However, the speed of the laser was terrifying. Even though the attack had been detected in advance, Lu Yan'an's spaceship still could not dodge this terrible blow!
"Boom!"
This powerful laser beam directly blasted Lu Yan'an's E-class spaceship, which was in flight. The massive explosion wiped out everything around it, and even at an altitude of millions of kilometers, the ground still sank a section.
The aftershocks continued to spread, and a star seemed to appear in the sky, radiating its unique light.
Hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, watching the explosion in the distance, the young World Lord who had been used as bait shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, "Another unlucky guy. This should be the 17th in recent years, right?"
He's now being used as bait; the enemy's detection equipment is so advanced that he can't even run away. This isn't the first time he's been used as bait; he could easily deal with ordinary opponents, and those two immortals wouldn't even show up.
When they encounter powerful World Lord, they rush over to seize the spoils. When they encounter immortals, they lay in ambush in advance, while he can only watch the aftershocks of the battle in the distance, just like now. He has seen these fireworks, as brilliant as stars, several times before.
Just as the two immortals were hoping to reap their spoils while the aftershocks of the explosion were still lingering, Lu Yan'an's figure, which Teleportation, quietly appeared before them.
"Not good! It's Teleportation!" the Earth-type werewolf Immortal shouted, his figure retreating hastily.
At the spot where he had just been, a pale white blade flashed and disappeared.
Lu Yan'an stood alone in the void, looking down at the two werewolf immortals with a disdainful gaze.
"You're quite the player, aren't you? You little bastard! You enjoyed firing that laser cannon, weren't you? Overpowering others with sheer force, its power is truly extraordinary!" As he spoke, a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes. "With the strength of two peak military lord-level immortals like you, you still have to be so cautious with me, a Peak World Lord. I must say, you've certainly got some skills to survive this long on the Yuanming Continent!"
"But this time, you've messed with the wrong person!"
