Chapter 1486: Chapter 756: Making a Move
After the words were spoken, dozens of warships in the starry sky immediately took action.
Among them, more than forty Star-Annihilating Starship doors opened swiftly, and figures emerged from within.
The figures that surged out from these warships were not enslaved species, but the captains of the warships themselves. As they left the warships, the forty-plus Star-Annihilating Starships began to rapidly miniaturize, turning into a compact form and being stored within the Ancestral Torch.
All of this happened in a flash, leaving barely more than a dozen warships in the pitch-black starry sky. Apart from the three Star River Ships the Annihilation Starship Captains were rushing towards after recalling their flagships, only nine Star-Annihilating Starships remained.
The Heavenly Ruins Cang Qiong Image Warship, the prominent Star-Annihilating Starship, and others were among them.
These nine Star-Annihilating Starships were undoubtedly confident in their flagship’s concealment capabilities. With the support of group concealment components, their massive bodies quickly vanished into the starry sky.
Seeing this, the three Galaxy Captains in the team exchanged glances and did not forcibly intervene, granting Song Chi and the others ample trust.
Swoosh—
From the middle of the three Star River Ships, the door of the Four Seas God Ying opened, and soon a figure rushed out as well.
This time, however, it was not Ying Kang himself, but a Seventh Rank-level Gold Splitting Owl.
After emerging from the warship, the Gold Splitting Owl’s wings suddenly flapped, and with the swing of its flesh wings infused with traces of Original Spatial Power, its just-restored body quickly disappeared into the depths of the void.
Subsequently, Ying Kang sent a command via mind sound transmission, leaving the Gold Splitting Owl with no concerns. Its body flickered as it fled into the distance.
As for the three Star River Ships, once all the Annihilation Starship Captains were aboard, they also rapidly concealed themselves in the starry sky.
…
As a kind of Starry Sky Behemoth, the bloodline potential of the Gold Splitting Owl might only rank mid to low among all Starry Sky Behemoths. However, they are rare dual-attribute behemoths with natural affinity for both metal and space.
This grants them effective attack methods and makes them significantly faster than most beings of the same rank.
Yet, this does not include the Starry Sea Insect Race, particularly the Flying Wing Insect of the Starry Sea Insect Race.
Moreover, this time, a King Worm of the Eighth Rank Flying Wing Insect was in pursuit.
…
Less than twenty minutes after the Gold Splitting Owl was released, within the internal communication chat of the fleet traversing the starry sky, Ying Kang’s voice was heard.
“I’ve completely lost connection with the Gold Splitting Owl!”
Upon hearing this, no one spoke in the group chat, but all the captains understood the implication.
An enslaved species completely losing contact only happens for three reasons.
Either the distance between both parties is too great.
Or the enslaved species forcibly breaks free from the control of the Enslavement Mark due to advancement, a substantial surge in Spiritual Force, or similar circumstances.
Both of these scenarios are clearly unrealistic in such a short time.
So the only possible result is the last one.
The Gold Splitting Owl is dead.
…
Yellow Sand Continent, deep within the Earth Core.
The Eighth Rank Flying Wing King Worm Mo Ran returned, accompanied by the corpse of a giant Starry Sky Behemoth.
At the center of the space, the upper body of the Ancient Mother Empress, incredibly seductive, opened her eyes. Her bewildered gaze fell upon the nearly bisected corpse of the Gold Splitting Owl.
The Eighth Rank Flying Wing King Worm originally expected praise from the Mother Empress, but the reality was quite the opposite.
“A Seventh Rank Gold Splitting Owl? True, its space talent can support remote spatial traversal, yet such a vast Star Domain nearby has no known presence of a large group of Gold Splitting Owls!”
“Mo Ran, explain the situation of pursuing this Gold Splitting Owl in detail.”
“Yes, my Empress…”
After the Eighth Rank Flying Wing King Worm recounted the situation, the Ancient Mother Empress pondered slightly. Although what was said seemed ordinary, she still felt something was off.
Precisely at this time when her combat power was stabilizing at the final juncture, her purple crystal tentacles on the top of her head began to sway rapidly, generating a series of ultrasonic signals. In the next second, these ultrasonic signals shot upwards swiftly.
These ultrasonic waves, invisible to the naked eye, easily pierced through layers of rock and sand above, shooting beyond the Vault of Heaven of the Yellow Sand Floating Land.
This ultrasound is a special communication method among Starry Sea Insect Race’s Insect Mothers, Queen Insects, Mother Empresses, etc. The target of the Ancient Mother Empress’s communication was another Ancient Mother Empress she was on good terms with.
This action meant she would need to pay a significant amount of pure energy as compensation for the other party’s assist, yet the Ancient Mother Empress was not remorseful.
Having progressed from a mere Queen Insect to her current position, how could she lack caution?
She understood clearly that the resources were insignificant compared to a safe ascension to the Ninth Rank. Once successfully stabilizing her current power, she could later nurture a Ninth Rank King Worm, making the collection of various resources exceedingly simple.
Yet this high-power ultrasonic signal, capable of traversing light-year-thick land, was suddenly halted just as it was about to breach the horizon of the Yellow Sand Floating Land.
“Hiss!!!”
The Ancient Mother Empress, immediately sensing something amiss, let out a series of sharp hisses from her mouth.
As the sharp hissing wave swept across, all Insect Race inside the Earth Core Space behaved as if they received a high-priority directive, abandoning their current actions and swarming towards the Ancient Mother Empress’s side.
This did not end there. Upon spreading across the entire Earth Core Space, the hissing sound began to extend through the passageways, reaching toward the surface.
