Chapter 407 – It’s Me Who’s Got You

“Go down and take a look.”

The blue-skinned man, known as Yongdu, quickly devised a plan and issued orders.

“Understood.”

Since they were preparing to capture the ancient creature hidden underground, someone had to go down. Between the blond man and Yongdu, it certainly wasn’t going to be Yongdu, who was of the tenth stage.

The blond man had no objections, nodding his head in understanding.

He gently tapped a spot on his combat suit, which was already thicker than a regular combat suit. It made a series of fine, pleasant sounds, turning it into something resembling ancient full-body armor.

From the waist of his armor, the blond man drew a half-meter long black dagger adorned with many red patterns, its surface shimmering with Starlight, his forehead brilliantly aglow-a sign of his mental power unleashed to its limits.

Having done all this, he cautiously descended through the crust’s fissures.

Yongdu, with a three-headed shark pattern emblazoned on his chest, watched the blond man’s descent with a calm expression. His golden combat suit disassembled into countless golden blocks that floated around his body, clearly ready to act at any moment.

The blond man broke through layers of radiant glow and gusts of air, steadily approaching the position of the massive white light sphere.

The pulsating white light sphere emitted a faint, thrilling aura.

But remembering that Yongdu, a tenth stage, stood behind him, the blond man felt slightly reassured.

The process was smoother than expected, and in no time, the blond man reached the vicinity of the white light sphere.

Through the dense white light, he could distinctly sense something inside.

The blond man carefully thrust his black dagger toward the interior of the light sphere, halting halfway as something felt off.

He then withdrew the dagger, gritted his teeth, and decided to reach into the white light sphere with his bare hands.

“Boom!”

The moment the blond man’s hand penetrated the white light sphere, he felt his body violently shake, his mind thundering.

The power emanating from within the white light sphere was far beyond his expectations.

He endured the backlash of this force, his hands quickly searching within the white light sphere.

Suddenly.

The blond man’s radiance surged explosively, his arms shaking violently, as he was almost completely engulfed by the white light sphere.

His hands, plunged into the sphere, seemed to have grasped something.

The object in his hands, still warm, was undoubtedly alive.

The blond man, a ninth stage powerhouse, unleashed all his strength in an instant, his body covered in numerous light spots that formed a semi-illusory star diagram.

His eyes shone brilliantly as a formidable aura rose around him. Clutching the suspected living creature tightly, he couldn’t help but look up and report loudly to Yongdu above, “Lord, I have caught it!”

However, the joy and confidence on his face had only just begun to show.

The creature in his grip, despite his best efforts, suddenly shook violently and escaped from his palms.

Before the blond man could react, he felt the wrists of the hands he had extended into the white light sphere being tightly seized by a pair of vice-like hands.

At the same time.

A cold, indifferent voice emanated from within the white light sphere, chillingly resonating next to the blond man’s ear through the translation of the Light Brain.

“It is I… who have caught you.”

As the voice fell, Yongdu, situated above the earth’s crust, seemed to sense something, his expression changing drastically as he abruptly looked down.

The next moment, an indescribable, terrifying aura erupted as if millions of volcanoes were simultaneously erupting…

“Boom!”

From the fissured, trembling earth, numerous streams of radiant glow burst forth.

Within the radiant glow, a figure stepped upward from below, stepping on air, completely shrouded in the thick glow, making it impossible to discern their features, except for one hand held aloft.

In that raised hand, he tightly grasped the neck of the blond man, who was filled with terror and desperately struggling.

“Damn it!”

Upon seeing this scene, Yongdu’s expression turned exceedingly grim.

“Inside the white light sphere was no ancient creature from a secret realm… but a person?!”

“Was that earlier commotion caused by him, or did he discover something beneath?”

The truth of the matter clearly diverged from what they had imagined.

Yongdu’s mind raced with thoughts in an instant, and without any hesitation, he took a deep breath and charged at the figure enveloped in the radiant glow.

The alloy metal blocks on his body undulated like tides, swiftly assembling into fan-shaped blades.

They resembled enormous wings, their edges razor-sharp, slicing through the void leaving golden trails behind.

The figure in the radiant glow didn’t dodge; instead, he casually threw the blond man he was holding towards Yongdu.

Yongdu slightly dodged, then saw that the figure had already closed in within his attack range.

Barehanded, yet clashing with the strange alloy blades, producing a crisp “Clink Clank” sound.

Wave after wave of terrifying strength traveled through each metal block, sensed by Yongdu.

Seeing his own offensive being torn apart in an instant, Yongdu’s eyes flickered, and he decided to disperse all the metal blocks.

“Boom!”

The metal blocks, like flowing water or building blocks, exploded in mid-air.

Then they quickly reassembled in Yongdu’s hands, instantly forming a colossal metal hammer with a dark gold hue and exaggerated design.

Yongdu grasped the hammer handle with both hands, light spots glowing from each star acupoint within him, as vast cosmic energy surged out and poured into the gold hammer.

Not only that, when his strength reached a certain peak, light spots danced around his body.

These light spots formed a vivid three-headed shark star diagram behind him.

“Boom!”

An unprecedented mighty force was mobilized, and cosmic energy flowed through the void like mercury, enhancing the dark gold hammer.

“Star Shark Punishment!”

Yongdu’s eyes blazed with light as he roared lowly, his hands clutching the hammer and forcefully pressing it downward.

Before this dark gold hammer even fully descended, the void was already alive with thunder-like flashes of light dancing and flickering.

The air, under the terrifying force of this hammer, was compressed and folded into countless layers, warping a large area around it.

This strike was Yongdu unleashing his full power.

His tenth stage strength, unreserved, enhanced by the power of the natal star diagram at Mastery.

On their planet, even the top-tier Mecha facing this blow head-on would be utterly smashed to pieces, rendered useless.

Seeing his opponent still approaching bare-handed, a faint cruel glint flashed in Yongdu’s eyes, almost foreseeing the brutal scene that was about to unfold.
