Chapter 2788: Chapter 2788: Summoning the Ancestor

Although helping Nebula eliminate Scorpion is more difficult, the benefits gained could be several times greater.

Scorpion thought that if he were Fang Bai, he would probably choose to side with Nebula as well.

"Looks like you’ve made up your mind to be my enemy!"

Scorpion’s eyes flashed fiercely, his body trembling as he transformed into a giant scorpion over a hundred feet long.

"So this guy is from the Scorpion Clan!"

Fang Bai knew that in the Divine Realm, countless clans stood tall, and anything could cultivate into a god, with the Scorpion Clan being just one of them.

The giant scorpion over a hundred feet long before him was Scorpion’s true form.

In his true form, Scorpion’s attack power was even more formidable, temporarily reversing the state of being suppressed. He battled the God Slaying Formation formed by Fang Bai and the other two powerful figures to a stalemate.

"This guy’s scorpion tail contains venom; if it so much as grazes you, it will be a big problem! Be careful, everyone!"

After dodging several tail attacks from Scorpion, Fang Bai shouted loudly to warn Jin Ding and Liu Sha.

Although Jin Ding and Liu Sha’s combat power was not as strong as Fang Bai’s, their experience in the Divine Realm far surpassed his, and they knew much more about the Scorpion Clan.

Thus, even before Fang Bai issued his warning, they were already on high alert.

Transformed into a hundred-foot giant scorpion, Scorpion continuously sprayed venom from his tail. The venom was exceedingly toxic; even someone like Jin Ding, a mid-True God Realm expert, would turn into a pool of blood if touched.

Fortunately, the God Slaying Formation was incredibly marvelous. Once activated, it could generate an extremely powerful defense. Most of the venom sprayed by Scorpion, upon hitting the Qi Shield created by the formation, was deflected back, with only small amounts corroding the shield and posing some threat to the formation.

Therefore, although Scorpion kept spraying venom in an attempt to break the formation, it had little effect.

"Let’s see how much venom you have left!"

Fang Bai looked at the giant scorpion Scorpion with a mocking expression while exerting his full strength to activate the God Slaying Formation, maximizing its power.

As the key and most crucial element of the God Slaying Formation, as long as Fang Bai could maintain his divine power, the formation would be difficult to breach.

Scorpion also realized that Fang Bai was the key to this wondrous formation, so he targeted Fang Bai in his attacks, thinking that if he could exhaust Fang Bai’s divine power, the formation would fall apart on its own.

However, despite the fact that Fang Bai no longer had treasures like the World Tree to provide him with endless divine power, his special physique ensured that his divine power lasted longer than that of others.

He possessed the Chaos True Body, with seven Primordial Spirits within that could all supplement his divine power.

Thus, while others would have expended seventy percent of their divine power, he had only used ten percent.

Scorpion hoping that Fang Bai would run out of divine power was nothing more than wishful thinking.

The venom in Scorpion’s body was ultimately limited, and seeing that it couldn’t threaten Fang Bai and the others, he had to give up.

The battle between Fang Bai, the three formidable warriors, and Scorpion was destined to be a protracted one since neither side had a clear advantage.

Meanwhile, on other battlefields, the situation began to turn around.

Zishi, a high-rank True God Realm cultivator, acted as a "firefighter," darting through the starry space for thousands of miles. Whenever he saw one of their experts falling behind, he would step in to help.

With every punch he threw, at least one of Scorpion’s subordinates turned into a mist of blood.

With every palm strike, at least one member of the Scorpion Team became a puddle of flesh.

Like an enraged lion rushing into a flock of sheep, no one could withstand even a single blow from his fists and palms.

The targets of Zishi’s attacks were mostly True God Realm experts, so the fallen warriors under Scorpion were primarily from that realm.

The tens of thousands of experts involved in this chaotic battle all possessed strong Divine Senses that could cover a range of several thousand miles.

As a result, each time Zishi killed a Scorpion subordinate, it sent a shiver down the spines of the others serving under Scorpion.

Eventually, wherever Zishi appeared, the Scorpion subordinates would scatter in panic, fleeing in all directions.

The morale of the Scorpion forces gradually declined, whereas the morale on Nebula’s side began to soar.

With one rising and the other falling, the scales of victory began to tip towards Nebula.

Scorpion, who was fiercely battling Fang Bai and the other two great warriors, also noticed this shift. He thought to himself that if this continued, the entire Scorpion Team would collapse, and he wouldn’t be able to escape death.

"When I bring out the Scorpion Clan Ancestor, all you Human Clan experts will die!"

Scorpion said harshly, pulling out a scorpion-shaped jade tablet made from Divine Crystal and crushing it.

In the starry sky, an illusion of a gigantic scorpion suddenly appeared and then vanished.

"Not good!"

Seeing the giant scorpion illusion that appeared suddenly and then disappeared, the Nebula Team leader Zishi’s face changed dramatically.

"Scorpion Clan Ancestor? Wouldn’t their strength be even greater than Scorpion’s?"

Fang Bai heard Scorpion’s words, and his heart sank, sensing something was amiss.

In the Divine Realm, the level above the True God Realm is the Divine Venerable Realm. Based on Scorpion’s cultivation level, it could be inferred that their Scorpion Clan Ancestor was at least at the Divine Venerable Realm.

Fang Bai knew his ability to challenge beyond his level was strong but not against a Divine Venerable Realm expert.

"Brothers, the Scorpion Clan Ancestor is a Divine Venerable Realm expert, with strength beyond what we can contend with. Therefore, this battle shouldn’t continue; let’s retreat quickly!"

Zishi sent a warning to Fang Bai and the other two powerful warriors, then roared up at the sky.

Upon hearing his roar, more than ten thousand strong under Nebula began to abandon their opponents, orderly retreating to their respective starships, then powering up the starships to sail deeper into the starry sky.

They left as soon as they decided, and in an instant, more than a hundred starships of the Nebula Team had all departed, leaving only the one Zishi was on.

"Let’s go!"

Fang Bai quickly exchanged a glance with Jin Ding and Liu Sha, the other two True God Realm experts, then tacitly withdrew and landed on the starship.

"My daughter Ziyu will remain on your starship for recovery. Please take care of her. Now, let’s head to Purple Cloud Star! Once we get there, we need not fear the Scorpion Clan Ancestor!"

Zishi knew the Scorpion Clan Ancestor could arrive at any moment, and the situation was urgent. There was no time to go to Fang Bai’s starship to retrieve his daughter Ziyu, who was recovering. So, he said to Fang Bai.

The next moment, he ordered his men to launch the starship, following Fang Bai’s starship towards the direction of Purple Cloud Star.

"Trying to escape? It’s not that easy!"

Scorpion crushed the jade tablet, summoning the Scorpion Clan Ancestor to come and entirely obliterate the Nebula Team and snatch Ziyu. How could he let them escape so easily?
