Chapter 577: Chapter 425_3 Chapter 577: Chapter 425_3 If soone had not reached the Sixth Stage, they would likely perish rely by coming close, overwheld by relentless chaotic forces.
However, this also underscored how dire Ying’s situation truly was.
Under normal circumstances, even during battle, such an extre commotion would rarely occur. It reflected an inability to control his power.
“Ying’s situation is very strange,” Feng Ping shared his observations, “There’s no sign of contamination on him—not even the pervasive Law chaos that fills this universe has affected him. Though the battle seed intense, it was essentially a conflict between three distinct forces. In other words, the balance among the three Cosmic Treasures on him has been disrupted.”
“So, it’s not external pollution but an internal issue he’s facing?” Zhuang Zhigao perceptively caught the key point.
“Exactly.” Feng Ping nodded.
This was indeed the main point.
Zhuang Zhigao found it implausible that an entity capable of devouring an entire universe—a being clearly at the Seventh Stage—would be unable to defeat Ying, who was rely at the Sixth Stage.
And even more so, it required adopting this kind of approach.
Furthermore, all external contamination seed to avoid him entirely, as if deliberately creating a vacuum devoid of power.
This could only an one thing—Ying harbored factors so repellent that even the devouring entity behind it would not dare to touch him.
If that’s the case, Ying might well not be able to return to their Main Universe!
“Let’s go. We’ll capture him,” Zhuang Zhigao declared bluntly.
The capture process was remarkably straightforward.
In his current state, Ying might appear terrifying to those weaker than him, but facing Zhuang Zhigao’s camp, he was overwhelmingly feeble.
In fact, Zhuang Zhigao alone was more than sufficient.
He was easily subdued.
Every part of his body was ticulously restrained, bound individually, and distributed for containnt.
“Mission accomplished. Let’s head back,” Feng Ping exhaled slightly, feeling a bit relieved. Even though he knew His Majesty was watching over them, this particular universe still felt deeply perilous.
Especially the sights he glimpsed at the universe’s “edges.”
The others likely couldn’t perceive it, but Feng Ping saw it all too vividly—a massive, invisible “mouth” greedily devouring everything within this universe.
The Extraordinary Da Yuan, matter, energy, life, even space itself!
Everything was crushed together and swallowed whole.
*Feng Ping couldn’t wait any longer to leave.*
“Alright, let’s go back,” Zhuang Zhigao said knowingly.
He took control aboard the spaceship.
At present, their universe leaps depended mostly on Shen Hao’s power. But Shen Hao spread his power across several spaceships, granting their users the capacity to execute leaps independently.
It was essentially employing an Emperor Version of the “Parallel Universe Leap Device” embedded within the ship.
As the temporary mission team leader, Zhuang Zhigao steered the device.
In an instant, everyone vanished from this universe.
Taking with them this universe’s Witch—and Ying.
However, instead of returning to their original universe, they landed in a desolate universe entirely occupied by a formidable entity!
At that very mont, Feng Ping and the others felt their minds regain abrupt clarity, and a chilling realization struck them.
“Were we influenced?”
The next instant, dreadful energy began to gather around them, innurable Extraordinary Laws twisting into deformations. A terrifying, sinister face lood in the void!
*It had been provoked!*
*That fury, that unconcealed greed blazing dangerously—it was undeniable!*
This wasn’t sothing a few Sixth-Stage Warriors could withstand.
Yet, none of their expressions, not even Zhuang Zhigao’s, showed signs of fear or concern.
They knew this wasn’t their battlefield, and His Majesty stood right behind them.
Indeed, an unparalleled sword—grander than a nebula, perhaps—descended upon the universe, striking fiercely at the sinister face!
Agonized screams suddenly erupted. Within monts, countless monsters in this universe dissolved in tornt.
Even Zhuang Zhigao and the others were enveloped in dim starlight to shield them from the terrifying aftershock emanating from the clash between two Seventh-Stage entities.
However, the collision lasted only a mont.
The opposing presence wasn’t its True Body’s reward—its True Body was greedily devouring another universe. What appeared here was rely an awareness tethered to the Witch, which Shen Hao easily dealt with, even extracting so essence from it in the process.
“Well done,” he remarked to Zhuang Zhigao and his team, “I’ll delve further into the enemy’s essence. In the anti, you all should avoid returning and undertake tasks in other Parallel Universes.”
“Understood,” Zhuang Zhigao and the others responded.
*They fully understood the gravity of the situation.*
Shen Hao felt confident that he had severed the entity’s tendrils entirely. However, given how unfamiliar this Trial Universe remained, it was wise to avoid complacency due to potential hidden rules.
This had already been an incredible victory. At the very least, Human Civilization had finally encountered a Seventh-Stage entity in this Trial—a clear enemy.
“A universe-devouring entity…” After arranging tasks for Zhuang Zhigao and his team, one of Shen Hao’s Avatars stood before the captive Witch.
The Witch was now trembling uncontrollably.
*She had lost all connection to her “Master,” yet she was perpetually subjected to Shen Hao’s status contamination, like a broken toy.*
She had no trace of the greatest magician’s deanor left.
At this level of conflict, the Sixth Stage indeed amounted to little more than a toy.
