Swallowed Star: Holy Flesh

Chapter 256 Puzzled

"Come again!"

In the ruins, Wang Xiu opened his hands in an extremely arrogant manner and laughed wildly at the four immortal gods who came to kill him and were hanging high in the sky.

"Haha, too weak! Too weak! Too weak!"

"Come again!"

"Is this all you can do?"

……

King Ziqiong, King Ziling, King Shennan and King Sun and Moon all had grim expressions on their faces.

Especially King Ziqiong.

The attack just now was her trump card, which consumed 10% of her immortal power.

The consumption of immortal divine power is secondary.

The main thing is that the trump card that I am so proud of can’t even break other people’s skin.

This gap in psychological expectations was simply unbearable for the always extremely proud King Ziqiong.

"Am I really too weak?"

Even though the will of an immortal god at the peak of the kingship was strong enough, there was still a hint of doubt in King Ziqiong's eyes.

If it wasn't because I was too weak, how could a peak king have survived the desperate attack from me without any resistance and remained unscathed?
"Ziqiong, this is not your problem!"

"Wake up!"

Just when King Ziqiong was falling into self-doubt, King Ziling's angry shout like a loud bell pulled her out of the vicious cycle of self-doubt.

"Brother?" King Zi Ling looked up at King Zi Qiong, his eyes still somewhat confused.

Seeing the confusion in the eyes of his always proud sister, King Zi Ling frowned:
"Alas, this guy's path of cultivation is too smooth after all. He gets upset when he encounters a little setback."

For an immortal king, such a confused look is simply impossible.

Once this situation occurs, it means that the immortal god's state of mind is on the verge of losing control.

This is a terrifying thing for the immortal gods.

The immortal body of an immortal god is condensed from immortal divine power. Once his mind gets out of control and his will weakens, his control over the immortal divine power will decline. At best, his strength will be greatly reduced, and he will never be able to make any progress again.

In serious cases, the immortal divine power will be out of control, and the patient will be seriously injured at the very least. If one is unlucky, it is possible that the patient will die directly.

Thinking of this, King Zi Ling felt nervous and shouted:

"Look carefully. The reason why the human king could take your attack so easily is not because your attack is too weak, but because he has a precious armor and an immortal plant life that is comparable to the high-level king to protect him!"

King Zi Ling also took a risk. In order to restore King Zi Qiong's confidence, he directly said without any evidence that Wang Xiu had a valuable armor.

But he was right by accident.

The Taixu battle armor on Wang Xiu's body is indeed a treasure, although it is much weaker than the golden soul bead given by the Lord of Chaos City.

The Golden Soul Beads are top-level treasures, and they are soul-type treasures.

In terms of value, it can definitely be compared with ordinary treasures.

But an ordinary treasure is still a treasure!
These are usually treasures that only a small number of the top cosmic masters or immortal kings are qualified to own.

Even the Purple Spirit King, who is an immortal god with the highest level of kingship, is not qualified to possess it.

It is perfectly normal for an immortal king at the peak of his powers to use a defensive treasure to block a blow from the Purple Sky King, who is also an immortal king at the peak of his powers.

In other words, it would be strange if Wang Xiu had a valuable treasure to protect him, but was injured by King Ziqiong's attack.

Sure enough, when he heard that Wang Xiu was wearing a precious armor, the confusion in King Ziqiong's eyes disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he looked at King Ziling with a burning gaze: "Really?"

"There's no need for me to lie to you." King Zi Ling shook his head.

This statement is half true and half false.

Although King Zi Ling had no direct evidence to prove that Wang Xiu was wearing precious armor to protect him.

But that is not important anymore.

The final result was that Wang Xiu, a peak king, remained unscathed and his aura was not weakened at all after enduring a life-and-death attack from another peak king immortal who burned up 10% of his immortal power.

This is enough!

Being able to achieve this, it doesn’t matter whether Wang Xiu has a treasure or not.

In the eyes of other immortal gods, Wang Xiu is the one who possesses precious armor!

"I see." King Ziqiong nodded, suddenly realizing something, and then frowned and said, "But the other party has precious armor to protect him, and we don't have any treasures to suppress him, so doesn't that mean we can't do anything to him?"

"You're right. We really can't do anything to him." King Zi Ling nodded. "Even though I only burned 1% of my immortal power in that attack just now, he still blocked it easily, without any effort at all."

“I’m afraid that even if I continue to burn my immortal power to attack, I won’t be able to do anything to him.”

"So we're just going to let him go?" King Ziqiong was a little unwilling, "Won't we be at a big disadvantage then?"

"No way." King Zi Ling shook his head, "It's because the other party has precious armor to protect him."

"But..." King Ziqiong was still unwilling and wanted to say something.

This time, they were thinking of making some extra money.

But I didn't expect that even with four against one and a flying dragon on their faces, they could still lose so badly.

Not to mention King Ziqiong for now, the one who suffered the most was King Shennan, who consumed nearly half of his immortal divine power and was seriously injured.

Not only did he fail to make any extra money, he almost lost his pants.

"Alright, I know what you mean." King Zi Ling shook his head, "Don't worry, this human will die if he is crowned king!"

"Brother!" King Ziqiong was surprised, "I knew you had a way!"

"Should we call the other Extreme Kings over?"

"Let me guess, is it the Black Tomb King? I heard that he also possesses the precious Blood Tomb Blade, and his strength is extremely powerful."

“Haha.” King Zi Ling smiled and shook his head. “Don’t guess. King Xuanmu is such a powerful person. Although he is also a king of my demon clan and is immortal, his strength is much stronger than mine.”

"The strength of the Xuanmu King is already infinitely close to being crowned as an invincible king, but I can't invite him. I don't even have his contact information, so there is no way to contact him."

"So the only way is for me to directly make the news of this human's coronation public. Then, no matter if it is from my demon race, insect race or mechanical race, strong people will come to trouble this human's coronation."

"When the time comes, the Xuanmu King you just mentioned may come over on his own without my invitation."

"But, that is a precious armor!" King Zi Ling was about to say something but stopped, "Brother, you are also at the limit of being a king, just like the Black Tomb King."

"If you can also possess a valuable treasure, wouldn't it be possible to greatly increase your strength and become a strong man on the level of the Mysterious Tomb King?"

King Zi Ling's heart was slightly moved when he heard this, but the next second, the rationality in his heart suppressed the greed that had just arisen.

King Ziqiong's idea is beautiful, but it is totally unrealistic.

The human king's defense was too abnormal. He had no way of stopping the opponent by himself, let alone snatching the opponent's treasure.

In order to break through the opponent's defense, it is necessary to invite a king who possesses a precious treasure and is an ultimate immortal.

But how could such a powerful being be willing to work for him?

This is a paradox, a seemingly beautiful pie that is impossible to achieve. And it is poisonous.

King Zi Ling could easily imagine that if he really did that, the best outcome would be that he would have worked for nothing.

If he makes a mistake in operation, even he himself might get into trouble.

"The risk is too high." Thinking of this, King Zi Ling immediately shook his head and said, "Do you really think those super strong people are as easy to talk to as you think?"

"Our military regulatory system is not omnipotent."

"This..." King Ziqiong hesitated for a moment and still did not speak.

The demon race's technology is already backward, and the so-called military supervision system is nothing more than a sieve compared to the ubiquitous virtual universe system of the human camp.

Not to mention a strong man at the level of the King Limit, even the Purple Sky King can easily bypass the supervision of the demon army system.

As long as you are clean enough, it will be impossible to detect it.

Unless the Lord of the Universe goes back in time.

But the Lord of the Universe is not an ordinary person. How could he go back in time just for such a trivial matter?

"What should we do now?" King Ziqiong asked, "Just leave like this?"

"No, we wait here!" King Zi Ling shook his head and said, "I have spread the news of this human being being crowned king within the demon tribe camp."

"I believe that the spies of various tribes in our demon tribe camp will pass on the information soon."

"What we need to do now is to delay until the strong men from other tribes arrive."

"We can just watch the show then. If we are lucky, we might even get some benefits."

"Yeah." King Ziqiong nodded. She could feel that her elder brother was still somewhat unwilling, otherwise he would not have said the last sentence.

If those super strong men who possess precious treasures and are close to being invincible really arrive, they will have no chance.

The so-called "good luck, getting some benefits" is nothing but the result of inner unwillingness.

However, King Ziqiong did not point it out, after all, he was her brother, and she did not want to leave just like that.

She didn't ask for any "benefits", just being able to watch the show was enough for her.

However... King Ziqiong suddenly thought of something and immediately looked up at King Ziling:

"Brother, what do you think we should do if the super strong men from the human camp arrive first?"

King Zi Ling did not deliver the message directly to the Zerg and the Mechanical Clan, but chose another way, delivering the message through spies lurking in the Demon Clan camp.

You know, there are spies lurking in the demon camp, not only from the Zerg and the Mechanical race, but also from humans!

"Then we can only escape." King Zi Ling shrugged. "Don't worry, I have been maintaining the space blockade. If the super strong people from the human camp arrive first, I will be able to sense it immediately."

"When the time comes, we will just teleport away. They won't be able to catch up with us."

"...Okay." King Ziqiong was silent.

But she also knew that King Zi Ling had no choice.

As an immortal deity in the demon camp, there is no problem for King Zi Ling to make the news public within his own camp.

But once the message is passed on to other camps, it means betrayal.

You will be hunted down!
Now the only thing they can do is to pray that the first person to arrive is a super strong person from the demon camp.

Even those from the Zerg or Mechanical camps could barely accept it, as at least it was a way of avenging their anger.

If the super strong person from the human camp really arrives first in the end, then they will have no choice.

All we can say is that this human was lucky enough to be crowned king, and he was not destined to die.

However, King Zi Ling's move was an open conspiracy.

Aboveboard!

The human being can avoid being crowned king on the first day, but he cannot avoid the fifteenth day.

Even if he managed to escape this time with the help of the strong men in the human camp, he will face endless pursuit from the strong men of all races in the future.

As soon as you show up, you will be hunted down.

Even comrades in the same camp may not be trusted, and they will be in a state of panic all day long, and eventually either die miserably or flee the battlefield outside the domain in a panic.

Unless this human being has enough strength to be crowned as an immortal king, this will be a dead end!

……

Below, while King Ziqiong and King Ziling were conversing, Wang Xiu below was filled with confusion.

"What's going on? You don't want to fight anymore?" Wang Xiu looked puzzled.

The four immortal kings above seemed to suddenly stop moving, as if they were in a truce.

“In the battlefield outside the domain, are the bottom lines of the battles between immortal gods so high? There is also the concept of a halftime break?” Wang Xiu thought to himself, “The alien immortals I met before didn’t have such a high standard?”

Wang Xiu tried to attack, but found that the other party didn't fight with him at all, but at the same time, they didn't let him leave either.

When Wang Xiu advanced, they retreated.

When Wang Xiu retreated, they advanced.

A companion to the main character.

Half an hour later...

"…Is this a guerrilla war?!" Wang Xiu had a strange look on his face, and a familiar feeling came over him.

He never expected that in the battle between immortal gods, he would actually see the combat tactics of wars between ordinary people in the history of the earth.

All we can say is that certain war wisdom is universal and has nothing to do with the level of combat.

However, it must be said that although the opponent's combat tactics are simple, they are very effective.

Wang Xiu was completely restrained by the opponent, and the initiative of the battle was completely in the opponent's hands.

In other words, Wang Xiu, who lacked a sufficient understanding of the laws and failed to master any of the three mysteries of time and space, lost the initiative from the very beginning of the battle.

It's just more obvious and intuitive now.

"What on earth does the other party want to do?" Wang Xiu frowned. He was not afraid of a head-on fight, but he hated the feeling of being led by the nose.

Wang Xiu couldn't even guess the other party's intentions.

"They don't seem to have any intention of fighting me. The few times they attacked me were just to stop me from leaving." Wang Xiu secretly guessed in his heart, "Could it be that their purpose is to keep me here?"

"But what good will it do for the other party if I stay here?"

"Could it be... that the other side has stronger warriors coming over?"

"But it's been half an hour. Even if we teleported from the Star Tower, we should be here by now, right?"

Wang Xiu stood there puzzled, never expecting that he had actually guessed half of it right.

It was only because of information asymmetry that I denied it. (End of this chapter)
