Luckily, in the universe, as long as the gap in strength wasn't too great, no one would start a fight lightly.
No one was certain they could kill their opponent, and without enough to gain, who would risk their divine body and life?
What, you could come back to life after dying?
Resurrection wasn't free.
That was why Yan Ning had become so famous.
He was the only one crazy enough to kill so many members of the Alien Race.
Just imagine: who could stand someone who started burning their divine body the moment a fight began?
As time passed,
their group traveled through one Forbidden Space after another.
The farther they went, the more Sealed Kings they encountered.
At the same time, the number of Alien Race members grew as well.
But by then, everyone seemed to have come to an unspoken agreement.
No one made a move.
Countless powerful figures continued to gather.
Their group soon numbered over a thousand.
Almost all of them were Sealed Kings.
And they had only passed through a few Forbidden Spaces.
One could imagine how many Sealed Kings would gather at the place where the Sealing Stars appeared!
Everyone continued onward.
Whoosh!
At that moment,
a rift suddenly split open in the space ahead.
"An entrance! The entrance has opened!"
The crowd surged toward the Space Rift like a tide.
Yan Ning followed Silver Sword King and the others through the rift. The scene before him opened up into a vast, boundless starry sky, with countless fragments of stars suspended in the void. At its center, a Seven-Colored Star more than ten thousand kilometers in diameter slowly revolved.
"So this is the Sealing Star."
Yan Ning's pupils contracted slightly.
There was only one. It probably hadn't officially appeared yet.
Looking across the starry sky, he saw that more than ten thousand Sealed Kings had already gathered, divided into separate camps by race.
Over three thousand Sealed Kings had assembled on the Human Race's side.
"Silver Sword King and the others are here!"
"Great! That's another Peak King!"
Cheers rose from the Human Race's camp.
Silver Sword King led the others down into the heart of the Human Race's formation.
Yan Ning noticed that more than a dozen Peak Kings were already stationed there. Among them, a man wreathed in golden flames had an especially powerful aura.
"Yan Ning, this is Golden Flame King, the highest-ranking representative of the Virtual Universe Company here."
Silver Sword King introduced him.
Golden Flame King's gaze swept over Yan Ning. "So you're the Demon Flame King who's been making waves lately? Not bad. You actually managed to kill so many members of the Alien Race on your own."
Yan Ning gave a slight nod. "You're too kind."
He sensed Golden Flame King's aura. Sealed King Invincible!!
An existence capable of matching a Venerable!
Just as Yan Ning was speaking with Golden Flame King, the starry sky suddenly shook violently.
An overwhelmingly violent demonic aura surged from a newly opened Space Rift, making every Sealed King present tense up instinctively.
"Hahaha! It seems I've arrived at just the right time!"
Accompanied by a thunderous laugh, a gigantic figure a thousand meters tall strode through the void.
It was a massive wolf, entirely black, with six scarlet eyes alight with flames of Destruction. Hurricanes powerful enough to tear space apart swirled around it.
"Fissure King!"
Golden Flame King's expression changed drastically.
"A Sealed King Invincible of the Demon Clan!"
The entire starry sky erupted into commotion.
Fissure King was a renowned powerhouse of the Demon Clan Alliance, a peerless expert who had once slain three Human Peak Kings single-handedly!
Almost at the same moment, another patch of space rippled like water. Black mist billowed as Queen Eileen gracefully stepped into the air.
Twenty-seven Zerg Sealed Kings followed close behind. Even more alarming, a figure clad from head to toe in Blood-colored Battle Armor stood beside her—a Peak King who had been enslaved!
"Hehehe~ What a lively gathering~"
Queen Eileen's light laughter rang across the starry sky.
"Fissure King, long time no see~"
All six of Fissure King's eyes fixed on Queen Eileen. "Eileen, don't think you can pull any tricks this time."
Standing beside Golden Flame King, Yan Ning felt the Chaos Bell tremble faintly in his sea of consciousness.
He could clearly sense that Fissure King and Queen Eileen had both reached the level of Sealed King Invincible!
"This doesn't look good,"
Silver Sword King sent to him telepathically.
"There are quite a few Sealed Kings Invincible this time. The competition will be tough."
Yan Ning kept an eye on his surroundings.
With this many Sealed Kings gathered, completing his second sign-in mission should be easy.
But he had a bit of a problem now. He could easily tell that
quite a few people were watching him.
At least a thousand gazes.
Damn it. It was all because of the rumors that he possessed a Domain Type supreme treasure.
He would have to be extra careful once things got chaotic.
Many of them probably wouldn't be targeting the Sealing Stars this time.
They would be targeting him instead.
Fissure King looked around, then suddenly fixed his gaze on the Human Race's camp. "Golden Flame King, I hear your Human Race has a remarkable young upstart?"
His gaze landed on Yan Ning as if it had substance. "That's you, isn't it? The one they call the Demon Flame King?"
Yan Ning gripped his War Blade tightly and met his gaze without fear. "That's right."
"Interesting, human. You killed members of my Demon Clan who weren't even Sealed Kings!"
Fissure King bared his enormous jaws.
"Just wait. I'll see how many blows you can withstand beneath my Sky-Rending Claw!"
Queen Eileen had been eyeing Yan Ning with a meaningful look all along. She parted her red lips and said, "Little brother, be careful later~ Don't let that stupid wolf hurt you~"
The Sealed Kings of the three camps held their breath as tension crackled through the starry sky.
Troublesome!
Yan Ning sighed inwardly.
He'd probably have to reveal a few trump cards before this was over.
These people didn't mean well.
Time continued to pass. One Space Rift after another opened and closed.
The number of Sealed Kings present began to climb rapidly.
Before long, the Human Race alone had more than ten thousand Sealed Kings.
The total number of Sealed Kings present was approaching one hundred thousand.
There were now seven Sealed Kings Invincible among them!
Two belonged to the Human Race.
They were Golden Flame King and Blood Fiend King.
"Look! The Sealing Stars are appearing!"
Just as tensions reached a boiling point, the entire starry sky suddenly shook violently.
"Rumble!"
A gigantic vortex, over a hundred thousand kilometers in diameter, appeared out of nowhere at the center of the void.
The vortex was pitch-black, but its edges shimmered with an eerie seven-colored light. The sound of space tearing came from within.
"The Sealing Stars are about to appear!"
Golden Flame King shouted.
"Everyone, get ready!"
Yan Ning held his breath. Deep within the black vortex, a pinpoint of brilliant starlight slowly emerged.
At first, it was no bigger than a grain of rice, but in an instant it swelled to Planetary Level!
"The first one!"
A scarlet star slowly rose from the vortex.
Lava-like patterns flowed across its surface. It radiated terrifying heat and measured more than eight thousand kilometers in diameter, comparable to a small planet!
"Boom!"
Next, a second, azure-blue star shot out, surrounded by countless ice crystals. Fine cracks appeared in space wherever it passed, frozen solid.
The third, the fourth... In the blink of an eye, thousands of Sealing Stars had appeared.
They revolved slowly in a steady pattern.
Each one was surrounded by an identical vortex.
Yan Ning stared at the stars, his eyes shining.
Every one contained energy that made his heart tremble.
They were all supreme treasures!
"Get ready to seize them!"
Golden Flame King's voice rang in the minds of every Human Sealed King.
