Chapter 2785: The Great Melee

Chapter 2785: Chapter 2785: The Great Melee

Within the Star Stone District, it was cold and desolate. As the starship sailed through, it had to avoid countless large and small star stones, so the speed was not fast.

Fang Bai, Jin Ding, Liu Sha, and the other gods knew that in such an environment, once attacked by strong enemies, it would be even harder to escape.

Therefore, their divine sense diffused, and they became doubly vigilant.

"Something seems off..."

Fang Bai’s divine sense, suddenly captured a large fluctuation of auras, and when the starship continued to sail a bit further, they found that among the star stones several thousand miles ahead, hundreds of starships and tens of thousands of strongmen were engaged in a chaotic battle.

Although most of the tens of thousands of strongmen were in the Void God Realm, there were also about ten to twenty percent in the True God Realm.

The True God Realm strongmen could easily smash a massive star rock, spanning a thousand miles, into dust. With their involvement, the battle appeared much more intense.

Unclear about the situation of the chaotic battle ahead, Fang Bai decided to take an observer’s stance, signaling the starship to temporarily stop and observe from a distance.

In any great battle, there is always a moment when the outcome is decided. Fang Bai thought that, regardless of the factions involved in the duel, it had nothing to do with him, and he just wanted to see if he could reap some benefits from the chaos once it was over, and all parties were exhausted.

The chaotic battle of tens of thousands of strongmen lasted an unknown amount of time, with strongmen bleeding into the starry skies and falling lamentably at nearly every moment.

Suddenly, a strongman in purple clothes burst out of the melee, covered in injuries, looking panicked as they fled towards the starship where Fang Bai and the other gods were.

Several strongmen in black clothes waved their divine artifacts in hand, shouting, and then pursued.

The purple-clothed strongman was actually a young and beautiful woman with an initial True God Realm cultivation level, seemingly heavily wounded but full of the desire to survive, biting her lips with her pearly teeth, fleeing with all her might.

In an instant, she approached the starship carrying Fang Bai and the others, her gaze taking on a pleading look as she saw the gods standing on the starship, hoping they could lend a helping hand.

However, while she fled quickly, the few strongmen behind her pursued even faster.

Seeing only a few dozen miles between her and the starship where Fang Bai and the others were, the purple-clothed woman was surrounded by the pursuing strongmen.

"Haha, Ziyu, do you still want to escape? Come back obediently with us to see the Young Master!"

The gaze of one of the black-clad strongmen fell on the woman in purple, laughing insolently.

The woman in purple named "Ziyu" furrowed her brows, shouting angrily, "I would rather die than let Scorpion succeed!"

The black-clad strongman who spoke chuckled weirdly, "Our Scorpion Young Master has outstanding character and strong power, more than enough to match with you! Why resist? As long as you yield to the Young Master, this battle between us can stop, and there will be no more unnecessary death or injury!"

Ziyu bit her silver teeth bitterly, hating, "Dream on!"

The black-clad strongman’s gaze turned cold, saying icily, "In that case, don’t blame us for being ruthless! Once we kill all the strongmen on your Nebula Team’s starships, and then snatch you... hehe, although it’s a bit troublesome, it will once and for all eliminate all the wings of your Nebula Team, which is worth it!"

Ziyu retorted coldly, "Our Nebula has tens of thousands of strongmen. Do you think your Scorpion Clan can destroy us just like that?"

The black-clad strongman laughed heartily, pointing to the tens of thousands of Divine Realm strongmen in the distant melee, saying, "Look at this, your Nebula is already at an absolute disadvantage. It won’t be long before you collapse. By then, it will be the beginning of your nightmare!"

Though Ziyu appeared tough, how could she not know in her heart that her Nebula Team was already completely suppressed?

Hearing what the black-clad strongman said, she looked to the chaotic battlefield, seeing her Nebula Team’s strongmen continuously falling, revealing an expression of agony.

"Ziyu, I advise you to surrender and go with us to see the Young Master of Scorpion lest you suffer even more grave injuries!"

The black-clad strongman said, shaking his divine artifact in hand, signaling to his companions with his eyes, then several black-clad strongmen approached Ziyu from all directions.

Ziyu had already prepared to fight to the death, seeing this, she shouted coldly, brandishing her divine artifact which brought lightning and thunder, and stabbed towards one of the black-clad strongmen.

Some strongmen dressed similarly to Ziyu, in the distance, sought to charge over, seemingly trying to rescue Ziyu, but they were tightly entangled by opponents, unable to break free.

"So many men attacking one woman, how shameless!"

Dongfang Ruhua saw that the woman named Ziyu, like herself, also possessed an Innate Thunder Spirit Root, and couldn’t help but feel a sense of kinship in her heart, tugging on Fang Bai’s sleeve and pleading coquettishly, "Brother Fang, Ziyu is so pitiful. Can you help her?"

In fact, not only did Dongfang Ruhua feel a sense of compassion for Ziyu, but even Fang Bai’s other confidantes were indignant, feeling that so many men bullying a woman was indeed wrong.

And Ziyu and those few black-clad enemy strongmen were all initial True God Realm strongmen, while Dongfang Ruhua and others’ cultivation levels were only initial Void God Realm, rendering them incapable of assisting, they could only appeal to Fang Bai.

Fang Bai had been watching the chaotic battle ahead and already discerned some indications, and upon hearing the dialogue between Ziyu and the black-clad strongmen, he roughly understood that this chaotic battle’s cause likely pertained to the woman named Ziyu.

Although Dongfang Ruhua was softly and gently pleading beside him, Fang Bai didn’t act impulsively but exchanged glances with Jin Ding and Liu Sha.

Having practiced the God Slaying Formation multiple times, they already had some mutual understanding, and through a few eye signals, they understood each other’s intentions.

Fang Bai patted Dongfang Ruhua’s small hand, signaling her to hold her horses, then said to the gods on the starship, "Everyone, prepare yourselves. Ahead, there may be a tough battle! If we can win, we will gain many friends; if not, we can only flee in a sorry state!"

The gods from the Emperor’s Palace, all taught by Fang Bai, had warrior spirits in their bones, and upon hearing this, their spirits were lifted, each brandishing the divine artifacts in their hands.

"You all wait here, I’ll go and bring that woman back first!"

As Fang Bai spoke, his figure turned into a flash of lightning, flying off the starship, and in an instant, appeared outside the battle group surrounding Ziyu and the black-clad strongmen.

"Where did this brat come from? Scram!"

Seeing Fang Bai appear nearby, several black-clad strongmen grew vigilant, one of them shouted harshly.

Fang Bai chuckled lightly, without a word, summoned the Blood-Drinking Mad Blade in his hand, and slashed towards the black-clad strongman who reprimanded him.

This strike of his carried Supreme Divine Power, incredibly fast, and without any forewarning before the strike, by the time the black-clad strongman reacted, his body had already been cleaved in half from head to toe, falling then and there.
