Chapter 709: First Encounter with the Blood Tribe, First Attempt at Freezing Time

Speaking about the Human King, there was a sense of reverence in Shang Honghua’s eyes.

However, the Redshirt guards around were not surprised. Over the years, they had long known that the Human King was Shang Honghua’s idol.

After all, Shang Honghua’s parents had told her stories about the Human King since she was a child, so she grew up listening to those stories.

In her mind, the Human King had already been deified.

Boom!

Just then, the warship shook violently.

Shang Honghua looked solemn. “What’s happening?”

“Commodore Junior, the warship was just struck by an energy attack. Judging from the strength of the energy, it came from… the Blood Tribe!”

Baili Quan said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Shang Honghua’s expression turned cold. “Turn on the screen.”

A light screen then appeared in front of everyone.

The light screen showed several crimson warships in front of the warship that Shang Honghua and the others were on. The surfaces of these warships were also engraved with various weird patterns, which converged into a totem.

“Oh, this is the warship of the Blood Beast Tribe.”

Shang Honghua sneered. The Blood Tribe could be divided into several types — ordinary Blood Tribe people, Blood Beasts, Blood Spirits, and so on.

Now, judging from its appearance, the warship in front of Stronghold Seventeen was undoubtedly the Blood Beast Tribe’s warship.

On that Blood Beast warship were several Blood Beasts with a face full of black fur, sharp teeth and claws, and blood-red eyes. They were all staring at the stronghold’s warship.

One of them was holding a spear in his hand, and his body emanated with powerful energy fluctuations. Then, he shot out a blood-colored energy attack, which struck hard onto the stronghold’s warship.

The stronghold’s warship quivered, slowed to a halt, and stopped in the middle of the universe. At that, the Blood Beasts on the opposite side burst into laughter and danced in joy on the deck.

“They look pretty happy.”

Shang Honghua sneered before she turned and walked out of the hall.

Chu Kuangren watched for a while and followed curiously. After all, this was his first encounter with the Blood Tribe. Who could blame him for being a little curious?

On the deck of the warship.

Several hundreds of Redshirt guards were ready to embark on their battle.

They looked at the enemy warship not far away coldly, hostility filling their eyes.

“Open the barrier.”

Shang Honghua said gently.

An opening was seen opening up in the barrier outside the warship.

Immediately afterward, Shang Honghua’s figure flashed. She rushed out of the warship barrier and dashed toward the Blood Beast warship in the vicinity.

“Oh? It’s pretty bold of her to charge out just like that.”

Chu Kuangren shook his head and smiled.

His figure also turned into a flash as he dashed out of the warship.

While the two of them drifted in space, Shang Honghua locked down on one of the warships. Then, she lifted her majestic spear up high and jabbed it at the warship.

The majestic spear was extremely domineering, emitting Daoist patterns and Emperor qi.

In a blast, the mixture of spiritual currents in the universe instantly exploded!

Waves of rough air currents swept out.

Meanwhile, the shield on the Blood Beast warship also began to crack, inch by inch.

“It’s an Emperor-level elite!”

“I can’t believe there are Emperor-level elites on this warship.”

“Keep your heads up everyone…”

The cultivators of the Blood Beasts plunged into a state of chaos.

One of their own Emperors looked at Shang Honghua grimly with a red spear high in his hand.

Shang Honghua unleashed another attack at the enemies.

Immediately, the barrier on the warship crumbled!

Shang Honghua rushed into the warship and began her rampage on the Blood Beasts. With the spear in her hand, each Blood Beast was easily pulverized and killed.

Only very few Emperors could withstand a few moves with her. However, even the Emperors amongst the Blood Beast Tribe with the highest combat strength were only at the Expert level.

Compared with Shang Honghua’s Perfected level, they were so much worse.

Seeing how his compatriot was murdering lives left, right, and center, Chu Kuangren determined that there was no longer any danger and proceeded to turn his attention away. Just then, a surge of bloody energy hit him.

Chu Kuangren did not even take a second glance at it. He simply struck out a punch and dissipated the bloody energy before locking his eyes on the other warship.

On that warship, one of the Blood Beasts was looking at Chu Kuangren in horror. The spear in his hand was trembling.

He had already used up his maximum strength in that blow earlier.

Despite that, his hit was dropped by Chu Kuangren so effortlessly!

The gap was just too big.

“Go and escape while you can!”

The Blood Beast hurriedly shouted.

The warship was seen turning around, trying to escape. Yet, at this moment, Chu Kuangren had already arrived above the warship and stepped onto its deck.

With an abrupt boom, the warship shook fiercely, the barrier collapsed, and the light patterns covering the entire warship shattered all because of this one step.

Chu Kuangren had arrived on the warship.

A Blood Beast came to him with a weapon, but before it could get close, an invisible force had already crushed it into a blood mist.

Chu Kuangren glanced over at the other Blood Beasts. From these beings, he felt an energy that was different from anything on Firmament Star.

“Lil Ai, analyze it.”

“Omniscient Spirit activated. Connecting to the universe’s consciousness… Connection established. Analyzing target… The Blood Beast Tribe, a race of the Blood Tribe. They come from an advanced life planet called Blood Origin Star…”

A paragraph of information about the Blood Beast Tribe appeared in the mind of Chu Kuangren, giving him a preliminary understanding of the Blood Tribe.

“Kill!”

While Chu Kuangren was analyzing these Blood Beasts, these Blood Beasts launched a brutal barrage of attacks on him.

Of course, these attacks were not effective on him.

His mind power flickered.

Veils of blood mists began bursting open on the battlefield.

“Dark blood energy!”

At this moment, a Blood Beast Emperor roared.

Bloody mists erupted from the dead bodies of those fallen Blood Beasts and gushed frantically toward the Blood Beast Emperor.

With that, the strength of this Blood Beast Emperor started rising steadily.

“Dark blood energy grants the ability to absorb blood from the same race to strengthen one’s own power. Is this the Blood Tribe’s unique divine ability?”

Chu Kuangren had a fascinated look on his face.

In the long battle against the Blood Tribe, this divine ability of the Blood Tribe had made the cultivators of Firmament Star suffer a lot.

Fortunately, this divine ability could only be used by some of the Blood Tribe members with a more prestigious bloodline. Otherwise, the condition in Firmament Star would be more perilous.

The Blood Beast Emperor, who had absorbed the Blood Source Power of the same race, unleashed an even greater power and thrust a spear towards Chu Kuangren.

There was a bloody storm hovering on the spear, which made it extremely powerful.

Nonetheless, Chu Kuangren stretched out his finger and gently tapped on the void.

“Time Lock!”

A strange energy wave arose, and the time within a ten-meter radius of Chu Kuangren suddenly stopped flowing.

Everything became still, and nothing changed.

The same went for that Blood Beast Emperor.

The spear in his hand had frozen in mid-air, and there were no longer any changes on his vicious face. Similarly, his fiery Emperor qi had become still.

Everything was like a painting, frozen in mid-air.

This scene made the Redshirt guards on the warship narrow their eyes in fear. They were all extremely horrified by what they just witnessed. Shocked, Baili Quan exclaimed, “What ability is this?”

“What is this weird feeling that is making me feel out of sync with the rest of time and space? Is this some sort of domain ability?”

“No, it’s not. This is way more bizarre.”

At this moment, Chu Kuangren was silently timing the clock.

“One second, two seconds…”

While he was counting the seconds, he had already arrived behind the Blood Beast Emperor. After two seconds, the lapse of time returned to normal!

Boom!

The Blood Beast Emperor’s spear slammed onto the warship.

There was no figure nor soul in front of him.

He suddenly felt his scalp tingling. As if he was enveloped in some kind of great terror, his whole body trembled incessantly.

“What the hell just happened?!”

Although his consciousness stopped working when the time was suspended, he was still an Emperor. Hence, he could sense something was wrong once he recovered, and it almost scared him shitless.
