Inside the cabin of E-class Machine Race.
Lu Qingshan 'Ghost King Avatar coldly stared at this Domain Lord Level 8 named ' An Cong '.
"Speak, why did you attack me...?"
"My lord!" An Cong, his forehead dripping with cold sweat, was displeased with the concealment. "I don't know the specifics either, but it seems the Herrera Family discovered a treasure nearby and, to prevent it from being discovered, Space Lock this area... They drive away any intruders..."
"This time, it was the grandson of the Herrera family head who was chosen as the fleet commander. He is cruel by nature and enjoys killing. This time, he ran into you and ordered you to be captured and killed..."
Lu Qingshan frowned slightly.
"It seems my guess was right. The place Kerry mentioned has indeed been discovered to be unusual. This Herrera Family seems to think there's some kind of treasure there... but I don't know exactly what it is..."
He then asked.
"Besides your fleet, who else is here?"
Domain Lord An Cong dared not conceal the truth and quickly said, " The Herrera Family's patriarch is also nearby. He has been personally investigating that secret. Young Master should have just sent a distress message, and the Herrera family head should arrive here soon..."
"Heh... If I find out that you've told even one lie, you'll die a horrible death. Now you'd better go somewhere else."
Lu Qingshan did not kill the Domain Lord named An Cong, but instead took him into his Internal World.
Inside his Internal World, there's another guy named Krachi; the two of them could make a perfect pair.
" Nasus hid the spaceship."
Lu Qingshan gave the instructions.
"Yes, Master."
A moment later, the massive Machine Race spaceship vanished from its spot, turning into a fragment of wreckage.
There was a battle here just now; wreckage is everywhere, making it not easy to find...
Then Lu Qingshan waited patiently.
Not long after...
A World Lord lord clad in dark red armor arrived at the area where the battle had just taken place, his immense World Power dissipating in all directions... Upon discovering that there were no survivors around, his expression immediately darkened.
"Who! Who laid a hand on my Herrera Family!"
Herrera roared.
With a wave of his hand, a huge piece of spaceship debris shattered with a deafening boom!
He searched the area but found nothing, then boarded his spaceship and disappeared again.
Herrera was unaware that the hidden Machine Race spaceship was already secretly following behind him.
Herrera did not go too far, stopping approximately tens of millions of kilometers from the battle site.
His gaze was fixed on a vast expanse of empty space ahead...
This is a secret discovered hundreds of years ago by a caravan belonging to the Herrera Family.
They reported the matter to the higher-ups of the Herrera family, hoping for a reward. However, when Herrera found out, he had everyone in the caravan wiped out, including their relatives and friends...
He killed millions of people that time.
He eventually kept this secret hidden.
Over the years, he had been searching for what was inside this place, but unfortunately, he had always come up empty-handed...
He dared not report it, fearing he would suffer the same fate as the caravan.
After all, the Herrera Family was merely a World Lord family; in the eyes of Immortal God, they were nothing more than ants that could be crushed at any moment.
He had kept this secret a secret all along, but after centuries of Space Lock this area, rumors had begun to circulate within the tribe.
"We must find out what's in this place as soon as possible. If it's treasure, our Herrera Family can rise to prominence... If we delay any longer, others may find out."
It was also thanks to the fact that there was only one Immortal God in the Kabel Starfield, World Lord family was equivalent to the local emperors of countless star systems, and this place was in the heart of their family's territory, so others did not know the secret.
Herrera was unaware that he was being followed; he moved swiftly and vanished from the spot.
A moment later.
Lu Qingshan's Ghost King Avatar appeared at the location where Herrera had been.
"So, there's a small wormhole here. It must lead to that magical place."
Without hesitation, Lu Qingshan flew straight in.
Anyway, since the Ghost King Avatar has the ability to resurrect, even if he perishes here, he will only lose some property at most.
Ninety percent of the treasures he possessed, such as the Locke Divine Water, were in the hands of the original owner.
After passing through the wormhole, Lu Qingshan found himself in a vast, misty world.
Moreover, time here is different from that outside...
"Just like that kid Kerry said."
Lu Qingshan's face lit up with joy.
If it matches Kerry's description, it means he didn't come to the wrong place.
This place is so strange. My mental energy can only extend a few hundred meters away, and my vision is blocked by the mist... If there is any danger, I probably won't even have a chance to react. And the World Lord of the Herrera Family seems to be nowhere to be found...
" Nasus, please remember my current coordinates..."
Although this place doesn't seem to be in the void of space, Intelligent Life can rebuild a model and completely record its movement path, so that no matter where it goes, it can find a way back...
Of course, Lu Qingshan himself also remembered that having Nasus record it was just an extra layer of insurance.
"This thick fog seems no different from what I usually see... so why can it block mental energy?"
"My soul power and will are incredibly strong, comparable to Immortal God. Even so, I can only see a few hundred meters away. If I were an ordinary World Lord, I would probably have to rely on my eyesight to observe everything around me."
Lu Qingshan continued forward.
"How does time flow here differently from the outside world?"
Lu Qingshan's true form was still in the Ganwu Mystic Region, so he could clearly sense the time difference between the two, which was about ten times. In other words, one year outside was equivalent to ten years here...
There's definitely a huge secret here!
Lu Qingshan carefully explored his surroundings with his mental energy. Although he found no danger, he remained cautious.
The Ghost King Avatar still possessed many treasures, and he didn't want to perish here so easily.
"Huh!"
Lu Qingshan's mental energy suddenly detected a figure.
"They've caught up! So that's where they were!"
Within Lu Qingshan's spiritual power, the blood-red armor of the World Lord Herrera was clearly visible.
The other person was less than 100 meters in front of him.
"Who!"
Herrera also discovered Lu Qingshan.
He simply didn't know Lu Qingshan's location, so he could only cautiously observe his surroundings.
"Heh... Epiphyllum's Fleeting Bloom!"
The Ghost King Avatar flew forward... whoosh, a stunningly beautiful blade of light flashed past.
The head of the Herrera family was decapitated from his neck.
However, he did not die.
As his body and head healed once more, Lu Qingshan's World Projection out, suppressing him fiercely and preventing him from recovering!
"Ahem... Who are you...?"
Herrera's head was not aligned with his body, and his mouth opened and closed, making him look extremely ferocious.
"I'd also like to ask who you are? Why did you send your fleet to attack me? Thank you for the attack; you've successfully piqued my curiosity."
The Ghost King Avatar spoke calmly.
"Asshole."
Herrera cursed his foolish grandson, saying that if he hadn't ordered the fleet to act, this man wouldn't have come here.
"We can cooperate!"
Herrera asked tentatively.
"What kind of cooperation?"
The Ghost King Avatar seemed somewhat interested.
Herrera said, "I've explored this place for hundreds of years, and I know its contents inside and out. I can lead you out of this misty space, but for the next level, we'll cooperate... If there's any treasure inside, whoever gets it keeps it."
"What's ahead?" the Ghost King Avatar asked.
Herrera said, "I won't tell you unless you agree to cooperate. You can kill me, but after I die, the news will spread everywhere! Immortal God will arrive soon... At that time, even if there are benefits, they won't fall on you. Believe me... This is the only way I can think of to avoid implicating my family after my death..."
