Chapter 404: Battle to Prove One’s Identity
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“The central galaxy?”
“The Peacekeeping Alliance?”
In the plate-shaped world, a terrifying creature kept repeating in a low voice the shocking news contained in the words of the unfamiliar figure.
Tracing back to a long time ago, the five worlds connected by the pentagonal structure had never given birth to an existence that could truly walk out of it and return.
All the terrifying creatures, including the dragon that emitted the red light, had a limited understanding of the universe. They could only try to figure out some information from the black tide’s invasion of their world.
Therefore, what was the cultivation civilization in the central galaxy like? Were there really a large number of high-level cultivation worlds?
This had always been a fantasy for the terrifying creatures.
The universe was too big and too mysterious. There was often only one outcome for recklessly exploring it. One would die of old age all alone in the void and not be able to find their way back.
But now, a guest from another world had appeared. His status seemed to be extraordinary.
“Is this creature who claims to be from the Peacekeeping Alliance investigating the traces of the black tide?”
Thinking of this, many terrifying creatures turned to the core of the world. There was a treasure tree there, which was also the territory of the three dragon gods from the plate-shaped world.
The dragon gods were originally only one of the terrifying creatures at the fusion realm. Later, they became gods because of the treasure tree and were considered supreme existences in this world.
They had destroyed the war weapon and the three consecutive blockades, wiping out all the forces left behind by the black tide in this world.
“How will the three dragon gods treat this stranger? Should they tell him the situation of the black tide invading this world and cooperate with the people from the Peacekeeping Alliance to rescue the surrounding worlds that are still occupied by the black tide, or…”
The terrifying creatures and the dragon gods might not think the same way at times. They might even have different opinions and secretly have hidden motives.
The treasure tree was currently the private property of the three dragon gods. It was a treasure whose existence shook the world as it could be used to create gods. It was impossible for them to take the initiative to let the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance discover it.
If a terrifying creature could offer up the treasure tree to the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance, would it be able to obtain the chance to go to the central galaxy?
“A powerful cultivation galaxy that far exceeds the plate-shaped world would have a cultivation path above the level of the fusion realm. It can even send powerful creatures into space to chase away the black tide and maintain order in the universe.”
The horror of the black tide had left an indelible shadow in the world.
Most of the terrifying creatures did not think that they could rest easy just because the three dragon gods destroyed the forces left behind by the black tide. Instead, they felt a greater sense of danger.
At this moment, the power of the three dragon gods had indeed reached its peak. Even the terrifying black tide could not do anything to them, but what about after a long time?
For example, in the battle that had just happened, a large number of dark creatures had suddenly appeared and seemed to be monitoring the plate-shaped world.
Did this sudden surveillance mean that the black tide was mobilizing an even more terrifying existence? At that time, would the three dragon gods be able to withstand it?
“This visitor from the otherworld has traveled through space. I hope it’s as he said, that the Peacekeeping Alliance is a mysterious organization that maintains order.”
Other than a few of them, most of the terrifying creatures had temporarily suppressed their disloyalty and planned to observe the situation for a while longer.
They did not dare to step forward rashly. After all, if it was an imposter who was spying on the treasure tree, things would end well for them if they offended the three dragon gods.
…
In the flattened valley, after hearing Chen Yiming’s words, the buzzing in the golden ape’s head became even worse. It even felt like fainting, and its thoughts raced.
“I actually provoked a person who crossed the universe, and he’s from the Peacekeeping Alliance in the central galaxy. What should I do?”
At this moment, not only did the golden ape fall silent, but the plate-shaped world also fell silent. Under the orders of the powerful creatures, the fleeing creatures stopped in their tracks.
This was not a battle between terrifying creatures, but an arrival at the same level as the black tide. This required the dragon gods to interact with them.
Chen Yiming deliberately gave the plate-shaped world some time to think before continuing, “Let someone who can make the decision for your world come out. The thousands of dark creatures that are close to gods are only a weak scouting force, but you didn’t let any of them escape.”
“However, the reach of the black tide has spread throughout the entire universe. It feeds on the negative emotions of living beings to get stronger. It is the common enemy of all living beings. Next, a stronger existence from the domain of the gods will descend on this world.”
“At that time, all the living beings in your world will be subjected to additional torture. You will all be forced into an eternal nightmare until all your remaining value is exhausted.”
When the golden ape heard this, its entire body trembled.
It recalled the tragic past of the plate-shaped world. At that time, the dragon gods weren’t so powerful yet, and the treasure tree hadn’t grown out of the core of the world.
Hundreds of years ago, the black tide had spread darkness to every corner of the world. Even the terrifying creatures that looked down on the rest of the world had either surrendered or submitted to it. Some of them had turned into dark creatures and were left behind or taken away.
They could either hide themselves or live in the shadow of the black tide. This period of time lasted until a while ago, when the birth of the three dragon gods changed the world. Soon, the forces left behind by the black tide were wiped out.
“Dragon Gods…”
Just as the golden ape’s lips were about to move to tell Chen Yiming about the dragon gods’ existence, “Boom!”
A thunderous sound suddenly rang out. The thunder shook the entire world, interrupting the golden ape.
Then, two streams of light appeared from the horizon and approached.
They were getting closer and closer, and the streams of light became larger and larger. Two huge dragons burning with flames appeared. They circled the sky, their gazes burning as they looked down at Chen Yiming.
“How can you prove that is your true identity, and not a lie?”
As soon as the two dragon gods spoke, a thunderous spiritual fluctuation containing the power of the world swept towards the figure in midair.
When it came to things like his status and background, there was no concrete evidence. This was not just a simple conversation, but also a secret test. The dragon gods were not arrogant enough to think that they were invincible.
“I can prove it with my strength.”
Chen Yiming allowed the dragon god’s spiritual power to sweep past him. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t show any signs of retreating.
In reality, he had already thrown the space anchor to the other side of the plate-shaped world. If the situation did not go well, he could escape with just a thought.
However, just their spiritual power alone was far from enough to kill him. In fact, the two dragon gods felt that their secret probing was useless.
Chen Yiming’s expression remained unchanged as he continued, “The cultivation method in your world is too primitive. It’s almost like you’re relying on your instincts to cultivate. There are no good treasures to improve your physique. You’re among the weakest among those of the same level.”
“Within the Peacekeeping Alliance, as someone who is only close to a god, I’m only an ordinary member. However, the two of you can’t do anything to me even in a one-on-two situation.”
In order to prove his identity, Chen Yiming had to rely on the enhancement from the Space Anchor ability to fight the dragon gods. Otherwise, he would immediately be exposed as an imposter.
When the two dragon gods heard this, four streams of flames shot out from their nostrils.
Even at the level of the fusion realm, he was close to a god but not yet at the level of gods. However, he actually boasted that he could fight two true dragon gods alone.
The terrifying creatures who were secretly observing the situation were shocked when they heard this.
“Impossible! There should be a large difference in strength between them due to their levels. How can he fight two opponents at once?”
There was an unimaginable difference between the power of nature and the power of the world. In the history of the five worlds in this galaxy, there was no one who could defeat the god-like existences.
On second thought, “If he is really comparable to a true god while at a lower level, that would be too terrifying. Are all the people from the central galaxy like this?”
Many terrifying creatures had to admit that it tugged at their hearts again.
The central galaxy was the holy land for cultivation. They were willing to pay any price to obtain a chance to go there.
The two dragon gods quickly suppressed their anger and did not forget their purpose.
“In that case, the two of us will wait for you in space. If we accidentally kill you, you can’t blame us.”
With that, under Chen Yiming’s gaze, the two dragon gods flapped their wings and left. The power of the world turned into a hurricane that spread out, causing the entire world to tremble.
Even those at the level of the fusion realm could cause serious damage to the world, let alone a god who had mastered the power of the world. If they fought in the world, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, the two dragon gods wanted to put the battlefield outside the world.
At the same time, “A battle between gods!”
The terrifying creatures immediately realized that a true battle between the gods was about to begin. Even if one of them was only close to a god, such a battle was even more anticipated.
Soon, mountains collapsed, ice shattered, and the sea surged. Many terrifying creatures took the initiative to reveal themselves.
Seeing this, the golden ape started to tremble.
In the end, no matter which side won, it seemed that things would not end well for it. It could only curse itself for being unlucky enough to be the first to rush into the battle.
Time passed by slowly.
Chen Yiming wasn’t in a hurry. With the range of his super perception, the invisible connection between him and the space anchor was enough for him to teleport to the dragon gods.
In other words, even if the dragon gods flew out of the world, they were still within the range of his super perception.
Next, just as the terrifying creatures were wondering why the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance was still standing rooted to the ground, “Bang!” a dragon god’s body suddenly exploded. Its flesh and blood filled the sky like highly flammable fuel, burning the air red and causing the sky to change color.
A figure walked out of the fiery red void. It was the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance who dared to fight a true god even though he was only close to a god.
“This…”
The terrifying creatures who had been confused were dumbfounded.
Under their gazes, the figure suddenly turned transparent and disappeared. In the next moment, they sensed the commotion from the battle outside the world. They turned around and saw a dragon god explode.
In a very short period of time, the figure had actually activated a space-manipulation ability and shattered the powerful body of a dragon god.
“He was just stating a fact, but it feels like he is looking down on the living beings of our world.”
A terrifying creature sighed.
This was the truth. It was impossible to refute him, and it felt helpless. He was really not boasting.
“The dragon god was destroyed in one strike!”
Seeing this, the golden ape’s legs went weak and it fell to the ground. It had clearly recovered due to the Undying Mark, but it seemed to have lost all its strength.
Not long ago, it had impulsively thrown an angry punch at the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance.
“Roar!”
The dragon god who was not injured shook the world with its roar.
It was in the sky, but the plate-like world seemed to have come alive, as if everything in the world would listen to its orders.
This was the enhancement from the world’s will. Generally speaking, only when facing a powerful intruder’s invasion would the world’s will go into such a frenzy.
However, now that both sides were outside the world, it could be seen that the plate-shaped world had become different from the normal world after the treasure tree was planted.
“Is it going to activate the red light?”
Chen Yiming glanced at the inner world of the dragon god that he had destroyed and secretly became vigilant. The space anchor had already been placed behind the dragon god.
“World Destruction Divine Fire!”
A huge amount of world power was gathered in front of the dragon god’s mouth. Then, dozens of water dragons shining with black patterns appeared. This was completely different from the red light. The black patterns on them were the most obvious difference.
The moment the dozens of water dragons appeared, they charged forward. Their bodies grew to a length that covered the sky, and they surrounded Chen Yiming from all directions with a terrifying power that could burn everything.
In the blink of an eye, a dazzling red light drowned out the small figure. An endless explosion came from the sky, and the aftershock knocked down countless mountains and countless huge trees…
“Gasp! This is the wrath of god, the power of the world,” a terrifying creature exclaimed.
The member of the Peacekeeping Alliance stood at his original positions and allowed the flames to strike at the same time and remained at the center to receive the most lethal attack.
It was unknown if it was because the activation of the space-manipulation ability required a cooldown or some other unknown reason.
It was just that no terrifying creature had thought that someone at the level of the fusion realm would use his body to withstand such a terrifying attack.
At this moment, the explosion in the sky was still ongoing. A stream of light rushed out of the range of the explosion. It was the dragon god whose body had been destroyed by Chen Yiming.
“Be careful. Your World Destruction Divine Fire is useless. The other party didn’t even budge.”
“How is that possible? That was enhanced by the world’s will…”
Before it could finish speaking.
A kick.
Another kick.
The figure flashed twice, and the bodies of the two dragon gods exploded almost at the same time. The inner world in their bodies turned into two streams of light that fell towards the plate-shaped world.
Chen Yiming had done this on purpose to end the battle as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the battle continued for too long, the fact that he couldn’t kill the dragon gods in a short period of time would be revealed.
At that time, his fictional identity would not be so convincing, and the mystery behind his identity would fade away.
“The two dragon gods have lost!”
As expected, in the hearts of all the terrifying creatures watching the battle, although the battle had only lasted for a short period of time, the dragon gods, who had obtained the will of the world, had already lost to Chen Yiming.
Furthermore, the bodies of the two dragon gods had been blown up one after another.
As for the person from the Peacekeeping Alliance, he had held back and did not attack their inner worlds. Perhaps in the eyes of the other party, it was just a battle to prove his identity. It did not involve life and death.
Outside the plate-like world, Chen Yiming watched as the two dragon gods reappeared. When they approached the ground, they passed through an invisible barrier and disappeared.
“The two of them came to test me. They should have gone back to discuss it.”
He did not chase after them. Instead, he allowed the two dragon gods to leave. This was in line with the attitude of someone from the central galaxy’s Peacekeeping Alliance.
At the same time, he had discovered a secret about the red light.
“These two dragon gods can’t use the red light, or they can’t use it far from the treasure tree. The red light must be very closely related to the treasure tree.”
Thinking of this, he turned to the other three worlds that were connected to the dark forest world.
With the red light’s level, if it could leave the plate-shaped world, it would have long wiped out all the remaining forces from the other four worlds.
“Uh… let’s not continue with the pretense out here. If the other party activates the red light, won’t I become a target?”
“When facing the red light, I can’t dodge, and I can’t not dodge.”
Realizing this, Chen Yiming controlled the space anchor to reposition himself. Then, he traveled back to the valley that had been razed to the ground.
The area within a radius of 1,000 kilometers was in chaos. Chen Yiming had deliberately controlled his strength to destroy the terrain with a casual strike.
Canyon-like ravines, pit-like holes, endless belts of rubble, and so on could be seen everywhere.
“…”
When the golden ape saw who it was, it was stunned for a moment. Then, it quickly suppressed the energy in its body and shrank to a height of just over a meter. It only reached Chen Yiming’s waist and ran over with a fawning expression.
Many of the terrifying creatures who were spying on them cursed in their hearts, “Is this still the golden ape king? How shameless.”
In the next second, some of the terrifying creatures became anxious.
With the golden ape around, it was not easy for them to appear and offer their allegiance to the Peacekeeping Alliance.
After all, if they only appeared now, it would seem too deliberate. The other party would not really take a second look at them, and there was a high chance that they would be ignored.
“Compared to the level of power I sensed before I traveled through space, the two dragon gods are much weaker now!” Chen Yiming said calmly.
There was a hint of regret in his tone, as if he was not satisfied with the battle just now and had failed to meet his expectations.
The golden ape said obsequiously, “Sir, not long ago, a treasure tree grew at the core of this world. The three dragon gods ate the fruits of the tree and broke through to the god realm.”
“The power you’re talking about should be the red light that killed the dark creatures. The red light needs the three dragon gods to gather at the core of the world, and it can only be activated with the help of the treasure tree.”
Chen Yiming smiled faintly. “So that invisible barrier was set up in case I have hidden motives regarding the treasure tree in your world.”
The golden ape smiled and nodded.
Chen Yiming shook his head and continued, “In that case, let’s wait a little longer.”
“If the three dragon gods in your world, who have the right to speak for this world, think that they can deal with the black tide themselves, I naturally won’t forcefully interfere with the black tide’s actions in this galaxy.”
