Chapter 410 – Legacy Overwhelming, Chaos

“Boom!”

The void above the plains seemed to be struck like a drumhead, or as if a super-scale anti-air missile had been fiercely launched and exploded, manifesting in a moment of expansive, twisted shapes.

Before anyone could react, a massive muffled sound of “bang” followed.

The huge inverted pyramid-shaped martial arts arena, which had just formed and was floating at the junction of the blood-red water region and the gray plain, exploded like a suddenly struck pile of blocks…

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, especially Yongdu, the three-headed shark, who was closest to the arena.

He stared blankly as his masterpiece, which had scattered like fireworks, crumbled without having a chance to react.

Suddenly, something swiftly wrapped around his neck.

He instinctively reached out to grab it, but caught nothing.

“Pfft-“

A crimson pillar of blood shot up like a fountain, and a smooth, blue head flew up like a ball, finally landing in someone’s palm and spinning.

“Pop-“

Anders casually closed his fingers, and the head belonging to Yongdu burst like a crushed berry, splashing juice everywhere.

“For such a trivial amount of ayer gold ore, these people actually planned to hold a contest to decide how to distribute it?” Anders flicked his fingers, shaking off non-existent bloodstains, and spoke somewhat incredulously as he glanced at the floating island behind him, which emitted a rich colorful glow.

The Black Robe Elder beside him chuckled and replied, “For them, this is already enough wealth to buy their entire planet.

Even the Bai Family would probably value these ayer gold ore mines…”

“The Bai Family is really not up to par.”

Anders shook his head, then his attention returned to the scene below, his gaze sweeping over each person.

Finally, his eyes settled on one individual.

A mysterious silver light flashed in Anders’ eyes, and a smile slowly spread across his face.

He murmured softly, “I think I might have found our little darling.”

The sudden anomaly on the field took everyone by surprise.

After a brief moment of astonishment, there followed a series of gasps that could not be held back.

“Hisss…”

Many faces were visibly moved, displaying expressions of disbelief and as if facing a great threat.

These two uninvited guests who descended from the sky had started by destroying the arena prepared for the upcoming martial arts contest, and then, with a backhand strike, they directly killed Yongdu!

As one of the leaders among the four major planetary powers and a tenth stage powerhouse, Yongdu’s strength was beyond doubt.

However, under the hand of the youth with silver braids, vine tattoos on his cheeks and neck, Yongdu was beheaded cleanly and swiftly in their first encounter.

Even though there was an element of surprise in the attack, the strength displayed left everyone present in awe.

At that moment, the field fell into an eerie silence.

Lu Yuan was equally shaken.

He was well aware of the strength of the three-headed shark, Yongdu, having clashed with him before.

Lu Yuan could easily overpower Yongdu, but that did not mean Yongdu was weak.

In fact, Yongdu, who possessed a golden combat suit made of a material used in advanced civilizations for constructing Mecha, definitely ranked among the upper echelons of the tenth stage powerhouses of the four major planetary forces.

He could easily defeat Yongdu because he had mastered the power of the ultimate skill, something he had not seen anyone else employ to date, and at level 2, no less.

The method the silver-braided youth used to kill Yongdu was far too simple; with just a casual release of a silver light that swiftly decapitated Yongdu, it was easier than cutting grass with a scythe.

“Completely not on the same level…”

Lu Yuan’s mental power spread outward, sensing that all the tenth stage powerhouses present were slightly tensed, including Yuwen Tong.

Everyone was intently watching the two silver-braided youths, who seemed utterly unconcerned with the others present.

They were still talking and laughing, speaking in a language that even the translator could not decipher.

“Languages not included in the translator’s database-could they be natives of this secret realm?”

Lu Yuan’s thoughts raced, spawning several guesses.

However, the demeanor and attitude of the silver-braided youth didn’t seem native at all.

They carried an air of inherent superiority, looking down on everyone present as if they were mere pigs to be manipulated at will.

This attitude of disdain, contempt, and indifference seemed innate.

Lu Yuan felt a sense of déjà vu with this behavior.

He searched his memory for where he had last seen such a posture.

Finally, a spark of realization flashed through his mind-

He remembered seeing it on a Bai Family youth from the Star Lord Realm, who had overseen a trial he participated in before.

Although there hadn’t been much interaction, the way that youth had scanned the crowd upon arrival had carried a similar sense of looking down on others, as if they were pigs or monkeys.

“They must be from an advanced civilization, just like the Bai Family!” Lu Yuan’s eyes flickered, “This complicates things.”

The disappearance of some trialists from the four major planetary forces was likely related to these two.

And from their behavior, it was clear they were not here with good intentions.

It seemed they might be from a faction opposing the Bai Family, intentionally entering to disrupt the trial.

“But wasn’t it said that only those born on the ancestral star could enter the ancestral land secret realm? Even the Bai Family can’t enter, so how did these two get in?”

More doubts arose, but now was not the time to dwell on them. The thought of retreating sprang to Lu Yuan’s mind.

He wasn’t the only one thinking this.

Almost as soon as he considered retreating, he heard Yuwen Tong’s voice by his ear.

“Everyone, leave this place immediately!”

“Notify the Bai Family to open the exit of the secret realm and assist our departure!”

It was also when Yuwen Tong issued her commands that Lu Yuan heard a muffled “boom.”

He quickly looked towards the sound and saw several bursts of energy radiating tenth stage brilliance not far away.

A dazzling slash of light, indescribable in words, burst forth from the corner of Lu Yuan’s eye.

It was like an inverted waterfall of stars, stunningly beautiful.

He turned sharply, only to see that Yuwen Tong had also made her move.

Almost simultaneously, the tenth stage powerhouses from the four major planet forces launched their attack, targeting the silver-braided youth and the Black Robe Elder suspended mid-air.

Lu Yuan didn’t witness the outcome of their combined attack; he only heard a burst of arrogant laughter and the explosive sounds of various energy attacks colliding before being pulled back by Chen Wu Hao.

“Don’t think about playing the hero. Even tenth stage powerhouses have fallen; this is not a battle you can partake in!”

Chen Wu Hao, seemingly worried that Lu Yuan might run back to join the fight, grabbed his arm with one hand while holding an alloy war spear in the other, and quickly dashed off in a random direction.

“Lord Tong ranks among the top three in combat power among all tenth stage powerhouses of the four major planet forces. She will definitely find a way to escape.

Now, the best way to assist her is to quickly contact the Bai Family and leave the secret realm!”

Lu Yuan was forcibly pulled along by Chen Wu Hao, his eyes rapidly darting as he considered Chen Wu Hao’s words.

After a moment, his body relaxed, and he finally agreed with Chen Wu Hao’s suggestion.

“Okay.”

…

“Boom!”

Like a starry waterfall, a dazzling and fierce blade light fiercely struck a silver vine as thick as a fist.

The blade light bent the vine inward, its contained terrifying energy causing the silver vine to tremble violently, emitting a series of sharp crackling sounds.

This power transmitted to the silver-braided youth, causing his body to slightly tremble a few times.

“Very good!”

The silver-braided youth, Anders, shook the silver vine, scattering the remaining blade light, his face showing delight rather than shock.

“Exactly, only a Legacy leading to an immortal lineage could unleash such intense attacks in a bare state…

Indeed, you have not disappointed me.”

Anders watched Yuwen Tong, who stood before him holding a sword in one hand with a detached expression, and a smile spread across his face.

This smile pulled at the vine tattoos on his face and neck, twitching them, rendering his face indescribably fierce and twisted.

“The rest are up to you, don’t let anyone disturb me…”

Anders casually instructed the Black Robe Elder standing beside him.

The Black Robe Elder respectfully acknowledged the command, and simultaneously, a mass of dense silver threads burst forth from beneath his robe.

These threads intertwined around his body, quickly forming a set of bizarre armor-like attire.

The tips of the numerous silver threads fluttered on the surface of the armor, making the Black Robe Elder appear as if he were a monster, his skin peeled away to reveal a body of raw sinews and muscles.

In an instant, the Black Robe Elder, transformed into a silver monster, vanished from the spot.

When he reappeared, he was already behind a tall man with snow-white skin.

This man was one of the tenth-stage leaders of a planet.

His reaction was incredibly swift; almost the moment the silver monster appeared, he let out a low growl and drew two swords, one longer than the other, from his waist.

His body’s pores burst forth with Starlight like a cascading waterfall, and the power of the star acupoints was pushed to the extreme, sending a dense flow of light spots toward the tips of his two swords.

A star diagram resembling a white bear roared to life behind him, its terrifying power shaking the void.

Yet, the silver monster did not even glance at the man’s explosive attack; instead, he raised his hand and pressed it straight towards the man’s chest.

“Crack-“

Accompanied by a crisp cracking sound.

The pale-skinned man stood frozen in place, staring at the broken tips of the swords in his hands, while the unscathed silver monster emotionlessly pulled his hand out of the man’s chest, holding a pulsating mass of bloody flesh.

The white bear issued a mournful cry as the star diagram rapidly collapsed.

The pale-skinned man’s face was filled with shock and disbelief, then his eyes quickly dimmed, and his head and body limply drooped downward…

“Heh-“

Anders withdrew his gaze from the neighboring battle group, his expression remarkably calm and natural.

The vast difference in civilization level and Legacy meant that although they were both tenth-stage natives of the ancestral star, the actual gap in combat strength was enormous.

It was like comparing modern humans armed with guns to monkeys living in the primitive jungle.

Not to mention personal armaments or Mecha, these fellows didn’t even possess a single decent weapon.

They were essentially unenlightened primitives, only capable of fighting with stones and wooden sticks.

Could stones and wooden sticks ever breach the hull of a Starry Sky mothership?

Ridiculous.

Over here, Yuwen Tong, who had just been definitively identified by Anders as a bearer of the Immortal Bloodline, swung her hand in a slashing motion and, without a word, transformed into a streak of light, darting rapidly towards the distance.

“Trying to escape?!”

Upon seeing this, a fierce light flashed in Anders’ eyes. He sneered coldly, and his figure swiftly shot forward in hot pursuit.

The two of them, one chasing and the other fleeing, quickly vanished from the area.

With Anders gone, the Black Robe Elder, who had been masquerading as a silver monster brutally tormenting and slaughtering the native tenth stage powerhouses of the ancestral star, immediately ceased his actions and followed rapidly in Anders’ footsteps.

Once the Black Robe Elder had departed, the remaining tenth stage powerhouses breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, these individuals, invincible overlord-level beings from their planet, had been thoroughly terrified by the Black Robe Elder’s ferocity.

Despite having similar levels of strength to the elder, the elder’s strange, ancient silver armor made fighting him akin to throwing eggs against stones.

This was a complete overpowering in terms of legacy techniques.

The two sides were simply not on the same level.

“It seems these two were specifically targeting Yuwen Tong?!”

“Inform the Bai Family; only they have the capability to handle them!”

With lingering fear, the group of tenth stage powerhouses briefly conferred and quickly dispersed.

No one wanted to encounter these two terrifying figures again; they only wished to find a place to hide until the trial ended early and the Bai Family arrived to take over.

Among the crowd, a burly man with a full head of red hair looked in the direction Yuwen Tong had fled, his face flickering with hesitation and conflict.

Unfortunately, he ultimately did not dare to follow.

The red-haired man, his face cold, left alone across the desolate plain.

His overlord mindset had almost been shattered in the previous battle, and now he seemed to be pondering what he should do next.

At that moment, two figures suddenly appeared in his field of vision, rapidly approaching him.

The Red-haired Man stopped in his tracks, squinting as he stared at the two swiftly approaching figures.

The newcomers wore combat suits similar in style to that of the Red-haired Man. Even before they drew close, they loudly hailed him in the unique language of their planet.

Their expressions were visibly excited, as if they had stumbled upon some significant discovery.

The Red-haired Man’s expression softened slightly, just about to inquire about any new developments they might report.

However, as they drew near, both figures’ eyes simultaneously emitted a chilling glow, their irises turning an eerie, solid black.

Then, the one in front suddenly lunged at the Red-haired Man with reckless abandon, wrapping his arms around him in a tight embrace.

The figure behind him exploded with a loud “bang,” transforming into a viscous black liquid that opened like the gaping maw of a demon, viciously swallowing the Red-haired Man whole.

Caught off guard, the Red-haired Man let out a roar mixed with shock and rage.

His body erupted with an explosive Strength akin to the halo of a star, creating giant bulges in the engulfing black liquid.

But after several moments, the growling and the bulges both faded away.

The mass of viscous black liquid expanded significantly, its presence becoming even more dense and terrifying.

A small portion of the massive black liquid then reformed into a human shape.

This newly formed figure knelt respectfully before the remaining mass of viscous black liquid, attuned to its calm and indifferent consciousness fluctuations.

“Let’s go… on to the next one.”

“Yes, Lord.”
