He had no time to mind the pain—what terrified him more was that within this bizarre domain, he felt as if he were trapped in the deep sea. Every movement was excruciatingly difficult, and his strength was suppressed by at least fifty percent!
Damn it, I have to run! There's no way to fight, I'm no match!
Pan Xi made his decision in an instant.
Qian Yu saw the flicker in his eyes and knew exactly what he was thinking.
Want to leave?
His form flickered, and he was once again in front of Pan Xi!
Pan Xi gritted his teeth and swung his hand violently!
Whoosh!!
Countless colorful tree vines burst forth from his hand, instantly covering several kilometers in every direction!
Those vines were a dark red all over, their surfaces densely packed with sharp thorns. Each one was as thick as a giant python, madly coiling toward Qian Yu!
A Realm Lord Level nine plant lifeform—Iron Vine Grass!
"Trash like this!"
Qian Yu sneered.
"Space-Time Slaughter!"
Hum!!
Within the range of Space-Time Control, space instantly shattered into countless scratches!
Those scratches were like the sharpest blades, densely interwoven into a net of death!
The surging Iron Vine Grass had barely touched that net before being sliced into countless fine fragments!
Pieces and segments scattered through the starry sky!
"What?!"
Pan Xi's pupils contracted sharply.
This Iron Vine Grass was a Realm Lord Level nine plant lifeform he had painstakingly cultivated at great cost. In his original plan, even if it couldn't kill Qian Yu, it should at least buy him a moment!
But what was the result?
One encounter, and it was shredded to pieces!
But there was no time to grieve now. Pan Xi gritted his teeth and waved his hand again!
Whoosh!!
Another plant lifeform bloomed from his hand!
It was a massive flower, a deep blue all over, its petals layered upon each other, radiating an eerie glow.
Countless petals instantly spread open, each edge as sharp as a blade, spinning as they sliced toward Qian Yu!
A Realm Lord Level nine plant lifeform—Snail Flower!
"Snail Flower, hold him off!"
Pan Xi roared, then turned and fled.
This Snail Flower was his strongest trump card, painstakingly cultivated over time, even stronger than the Iron Vine Grass.
Over the years, he had kept a low profile. Even when he had used both plant lifeforms, he had killed his enemies instantly, leaving no one aware that he possessed these two auxiliary plant lifeforms.
In his mind, even if the Snail Flower couldn't kill Qian Yu, it should at least delay him for a short while.
As long as it bought him time, he could escape!
But he was overthinking it again.
Qian Yu looked at the massive Snail Flower, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"Pity, neither of your two plant lifeforms is top-grade. Their power is limited."
He stood with his blade in hand, his gaze calm.
"They're nothing special!"
As the words fell, his blade slashed wildly!
One slash, two slashes, three slashes—countless streaks of blade light bloomed across the starry sky!
Every slash tore through space, every slash struck the petals of the Snail Flower!
Those petals, capable of shredding Domain Lords, were like paper under Qian Yu's blade, shattering piece by piece, scattering fragment by fragment!
The Snail Flower let out a sharp shriek, desperately trying to counterattack, but it couldn't even touch the hem of Qian Yu's clothes! It couldn't get close to him, as if separated by an entire universe!
In just a few breaths, that massive Snail Flower was chopped into countless pieces!
Qian Yu's form flickered, tearing through the void, and appeared instantly behind Pan Xi!
Pan Xi turned his head, his eyes filled with terror.
"No! Don't kill me!"
His voice trembled as he scrambled backward.
"I can give you money! All my wealth! I'll give you everything!"
He simply couldn't understand how a Domain Lord Ninth Stage could be this powerful.
Two Realm Lord Level ninth-stage plant lifeforms, and before him they were nothing but chickens and clay dogs!
Yet Qian Yu had no intention of wasting words with him.
His war blade struck again.
Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang!!
Dozens of blade lights flashed!
Pan Xi's words caught in his throat. His eyes went wide as he watched his own body—from shoulder to waist, from arms to legs—lines of blood appearing one after another.
Then his body instantly shattered into over seventy pieces!
Blood congealed into beads in the vacuum, drifting slowly through the starry void alongside the fragments.
The leader of the Fire Phoenix Organization, Pan Xi...
Dead.
Qian Yu sheathed his blade.
"Fool. Kill you, and your things are mine anyway."
Too bad Pan Xi couldn't hear those words anymore.
After Pan Xi's death, his collapsing Inner World began spewing out countless items—battle armor, weapons, energy blocks, crystal cores, materials, piles of Ganwu Coins... Like a punctured warehouse, a torrent of treasures gushed out, instantly filling tens of kilometers of starry space.
Qian Yu swept his telekinesis outward.
Hum—
His vast telekinesis, like an invisible net, instantly enveloped all the drifting items.
The battle armor, weapons, energy blocks, crystal cores, materials, Ganwu Coins... as if pulled by invisible hands, turned into streaks of light converging toward Qian Yu.
All of it went into his Inner World.
Within the 20-million-kilometer Inner World, after Qian Yu's breakthrough, his Inner World had been continuously expanding.
Now, in that vast space, a small mountain of piled treasures suddenly appeared.
Qian Yu didn't examine them closely.
He turned and flew toward that E9-Class deep purple ship.
He took that E9-Class ship as well.
Time to go.
This place was remote, but the battle had stirred up too much commotion. It might attract others.
Qian Yu retrieved his own ship—a black-silver C9-Class ship floating silently in the starry void.
The hatch opened, and he stepped inside.
The ship gave a slight shudder, then accelerated away from the shattered asteroid field.
Moments later, it entered the Dark Universe and vanished into the vast sea of stars.
Inside the Inner World.
Beneath the gray, hazy sky of the Inner World, the Wild Beast Clone hovered silently at its center.
Its telekinesis exploded outward.
Within this Inner World, it was the true sovereign. Its perception was ten times stronger than in the outside world.
Telekinetic force swept like a tide over the mountain of Pan Xi's remains.
Battle armor—useless.
Weapons—junk.
Energy blocks—ordinary goods.
Crystal cores—barely usable.
Materials—better than nothing.
Ganwu Coins—quite a lot, roughly hundreds of billions by estimate, but for Qian Yu at this moment, none of that mattered.
He was looking for one thing.
Something truly important.
His telekinesis swept over again and again, item after item being ruled out.
Suddenly, the Wild Beast Clone's telekinesis paused.
Deep within that pile of clutter, a silver token lay quietly.
It was an exquisitely carved silver token, palm-sized, its surface etched with intricate patterns. At first glance, it seemed like an ordinary piece of craftsmanship—no energy fluctuations, no special aura whatsoever.
But the moment the Wild Beast Clone's spiritual sense touched it, it detected something unusual.
Hidden within this token was a small world.
If not for the fact that within the Inner World, he was the absolute sovereign, his perception far surpassing that of the outside realm, he too might have been deceived by the token's disguise.
"Found it."
The Wild Beast Clone raised a massive hoof and beckoned lightly. The silver token flew out from the pile of odds and ends, hovering before it.
