Chapter 807: Return
The alien battlefield.
Three Tyrants were piloting a Top-Tier Cosmic Radiance-grade flying vessel, rapidly navigating through the core region toward the Skyblaze Tribe. Each wore a tense, serious expression.
Eventually, one of them could no longer hold back and asked, "Tyrant Wu Liang, how much longer until we reach the Skyblaze Tribe's border?"
The one called Tyrant Wu Liang snapped, "Shi Xingzun, stop rushing me! Can't you see I'm doing everything I can to calculate the route?
"The alien battlefield itself is composed of natural barriers like the Star Abyss. The paths here are complex and constantly shifting. The Heaven Ordainment Sect may oversee the world's pathways, but this area borders the Skyblaze Tribe. How could we instantly pinpoint the fastest high-speed route?"
He added, "Besides, rushing won't change anything. If Li Pin isn't strong enough, arriving a few minutes earlier won't save him.
"But if his strength is sufficient, holding on a bit longer shouldn't be a problem. We might as well conserve our energy and think about how to deal with the Bloodblade Squad's Tyrants.
"After all, each one of them... was born for battle. They're lunatics who'll complete their mission even if it means bearing the burden of the Eternal Oblivion Force."
Shi Xingzun spoke quickly, "We don't need to kill the Bloodblade Squad members. All we need to do is delay them. The Divine Martial Emperor and our Hall's White Emperor are already on their way at full speed. If we can just stall for a little while, they'll arrive soon enough."
Not long ago, he had been stripped of his position as Vice Hall Master of the Humanity Sanctum for failing to recommend the young prodigy Li Pin in time.
After witnessing Li Pin's rise, he couldn't help but feel the sting of being replaced by the new generation. Unwilling to accept defeat, he returned to the alien battlefield, determined to push himself further—to comprehend space and earn the title of Sacred Monarch.
As luck would have it, he chose the Skyblaze Tribe's border as the place for his comeback. It was then that an urgent order came from above: Li Pin had failed his infiltration mission and was exposed. During his retreat, he was ambushed by the Bloodblade Squad from the Divine Race and needed immediate rescue.
