Chapter 678 257: Unexpected Enemies
"Seems like we were underestimated... Even among Constant Star-level beings, there are differences..."
Land murmured.
He no longer had any desire to waste words.
At that moment, a thought crossed his mind.
Suddenly, he extended his Dragon Claw, grasping at the five Constant Star-level beings in the void.
In an instant.
The area around these five beings, spanning tens of millions of kilometers, seemed to be compressed by an invisible force, beginning to collapse.
"What are you doing!"
"Damn it! This guy is already advancing toward the Star System level! Our intel was wrong!"
"Wait! This is a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! Friend! Stop!"
The five Constant Star-level life forms immediately changed their expressions and shouted.
Land's expression remained unmoved.
It had been over five hundred years since he last went to the [Courtyard Breaker] plane.
Although he had split his body into six parts.
The strength of each part far surpassed that of five hundred years ago.
Coupled with the wisdom gained from countless Casters and Wizards from the Giant Dragon Royal Court over these five centuries.
He had also learned a lot of magical and new magic application techniques.
The entire attack mode had changed significantly.
At this moment, he completely overwhelmed his enemies with his immense energy.
In just a moment, he crushed those guys into pulp.
Watching them writhing like soft mud under the invisible force, Land directly threw these unlucky ones into the black hole.
He enjoyed their desperate screams and cries.
Until the other side was completely absorbed by the black hole.
Land prepared to leave.
He suddenly felt the surrounding space continuously compressing, a boundless and immense pressure sweeping over his entire body.
Just like the technique he used against those five unfortunates.
Land immediately unfolded his Dragon Wings and limbs, supporting himself against the surroundings.
"Aang!!"
He roared in anger.
His entire body's energy erupted in unimaginable heat, warping everything around him with temperatures of tens of millions, even billions of degrees.
Yet he still couldn't dissipate the pressure.
This made Land feel an unprecedented pressure.
Like the mass of several stars pressing down on him!
Crack, crack, crack, crack~
The entire space groaned under the strain.
He slowly turned his head, looking in a certain direction.
There, at some unknown moment, another serpent shadow appeared.
This serpent was enormous and long, coiled in the starry sky, its body large enough to encircle a planet with a diameter of ten thousand kilometers.
Its head had two heads, one black and one white, flicking their tongues lightly, watching Land.
"Who... are you?"
Land couldn't help but ask when facing this figure.
He knew his voice, even his magic, couldn't reach out.
But he asked anyway.
And the serpent opposite seemed to hear this question.
It revealed an extremely human-like smile and said, "Who am I? Most people generally call me the Order Serpent."
"Order Serpent? The Order Serpent of the Ayo Plane?"
Land's heart shook.
This serpent, a being that assisted in the creation of Ayo, displayed behavior that was already likely a true Star System-level being.
Of course, the most crucial question was.
Why did this serpent seek him out?
Recently, he had no interactions or connections with the Ayo Plane!
This left him quite puzzled.
The Order Serpent seemed to have discerned Land's confusion, and unexpectedly responded again:
"Of course I am the Order Serpent of the Ayo Plane.
You seem quite puzzled as to why I am looking for you?
You, little dragon, previously achieved quite a bit in the timeline I am in..."
"Another timeline?"
Land's heart shook immensely.
He hadn't expected the enemy to come from another timeline and only find him after more than five hundred years.
Previously, the Star Dragon and Time Dragon had told him not to worry about other timelines causing him trouble.
Now it seemed he had been fooled again!
He didn't know if those two jerks said that to deliberately trap him, or if their strength couldn't compare to this serpent, hence unable to gauge the serpent's abilities.
However...
This serpent's ability was indeed formidable, finding him just because he appeared in that timeline.
This enormous capability instantly made Land feel a strong sense of crisis.
"The Dawn Sun found me, informing me of everything.
I have observed the aura you left behind and can confirm that you should be an original creature from another timeline's Ayo Plane.
Truly miraculous, for the Dragon Race to produce a mutant like you.
This is a material more precious than the Hate Dragon.
As long as we capture you, Ayo's genetic sequence might become even more perfect."
The Order Serpent spoke again.
It was evident that the serpent was in a good mood; otherwise, it wouldn't be so eager to chat with Land.
"The Dawn Sun again?"
Land's anger flared upon hearing this name, nearly descending into madness once more, but he restrained himself and said:
"Augmenting Ayo's genetic sequence? The Ayo you refer to, is it from this plane, or your plane?"
"I am loyal only to my creator, and I have only one creator."
The Order Twin Serpent concluded, having no further desire to continue.
The terrifying pressure surged forth again.
Compressing Land's body uncontrollably.
The bones and scales of his body burst one after another.
"Aang!!"
Land roared.
Exerting all his strength, he didn't clash head-on with the power of his opponent.
Instead, he curled up his body, and his entire dragon form began to be enveloped in a layer of black.
After over five hundred years, Land underwent another black hole transformation!
The matter of his body was completely replaced.
Turning into a black ball.
The surrounding pressure ceased inch by inch in an instant.
The previously calm expression of the Order Serpent showed some change, but soon revealed delight again:
"Good! Very good! You actually have the ability to transform into a black hole? Although this isn't real.
It still holds some of its power!
You've done excellently! Upon absorbing you, my master Ayo will surely become even more perfect!
You can't maintain this state for long! But since you wish to resist, I'll spend some time entertaining you."
The Order Serpent regained its composure, swiftly retreating.
Moments later, the pressure binding Land was covered and obliterated by the black hole it induced.
But the Order Serpent had long since retreated beyond the black hole's influence, remaining extremely safe.
Silently observing Land's incarnation of the black hole, even showing satisfaction in its eyes.
Yet, before it could be pleased for long.
Land did something entirely unexpected by the serpent.
He maneuvered his body and plunged headlong into a nearby real black hole!
Upon entering its sphere of influence, Land's black hole transformation also collapsed on its own, revealing his true form, and he flashed a peculiar smile at the Order Serpent outside the black hole.
This was his escape route!
From the beginning, he had anticipated that a Star System-level being would intercept him.
But unexpectedly, the ones who intercepted were a bunch of worthless ones.
Instead, it was the Order Serpent showing up as an unexpected variable.
Fortunately, the escape route still worked!
And the Order Serpent was momentarily stunned.
It hadn't expected Land to voluntarily head into a black hole.
It wasn't until Land was completely absorbed by the black hole, crushed into powder.
The Order Serpent finally recovered, sighing:
"I didn't expect this dragon to have such a fierce temperament, preferring death over letting me have my way.
Oh well, since I know your origin, I'll continue to capture you in other timelines...
But finding one with suitable strength and not in Ayo's plane won't be that easy..."
With that, the serpent showed a bit of annoyance.
The figure disappeared.
It never doubted if there was a possibility that Land could survive entering a black hole...
Because even for a being of its Star System level, falling into one would be certain death.
And as for the strength Land showcased, it was evidently much weaker than itself.
As for Land's incarnation of a black hole?
It must be either some powerful spell or a Talent Ability.
And it merely mimicked a black hole.
The Order Serpent certainly didn't doubt.
