Chapter 1409 King, Go
Ang suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. He understood why the Ghost Tree had sealed off this space, why the Mist Whale had shattered space to block teleportation, and why it had manifested so many black crystal skeletons without caring that they were being shattered. It turned out that everything was for this one move.
All the black crystal skeletons in the entire space began to rotate, which turned them into abrasives. Nothing in this void was harder than black crystal skeletons. Even the Star Skull was essentially a black crystal skeleton with added enhancements. As long as the energy protection formed by the added enhancements was worn away, the black crystal skeletons could be worn away.
Of course, this is not an easy task. At first, it may be like polishing, which takes a long time, but once the energy layer is removed, the rest is much easier.
However, neither the Fog Whale nor the Ghost Tree was confident they could trap the King. If the King forced his way through the enclosed space, all their efforts would be in vain. So they set their sights on Ang, the Star God who could transform into a Star Skull, but clearly had a time limit.
It must be said that no top-tier being should be underestimated. This arrangement would be difficult for anyone to escape, including a monarch. Even if they survive, they would at least be severely injured.
But it just so happened to run into Ang, so it's hard to say whether they were unlucky or just unlucky.
The mist millstone began to spin, and countless black crystal skeletons on the mist swirled around, obscuring the sky and blocking all perception. Even the mist whale itself could not see what was inside.
However, almost at the same moment it started spinning, the Fog Whale noticed something was wrong. The black crystal skeleton and mist were decreasing in large quantities. Almost every time it spun around, a section of it would disappear. After two spins, half of it would disappear. After ten spins, it could vaguely see what was inside.
This means that the black crystal skeleton and mist have been reduced to a level that is no longer sufficient to obscure perception.
The fog whale was completely bewildered. Where did all those black crystal skeletons and mist go?
The mist millstone continued to spin, and the more it spun, the less there was to see. The less there was, the better the view became. Finally, the mist whale could see where the black crystal bones and mist had gone. It saw a domain enveloping Ang's surroundings. All matter that touched the domain disappeared rapidly, as if it were a bottomless pit, swallowing up all the black crystal bones and mist.
Upon witnessing this scene, the Fog Whale was shocked: A...space-time domain?! He's the Ancient Dragon of Space-Time?! Impossible, didn't the Ancient Dragon of Space-Time leave through the Gate of Boundless Realms? Why is there another being who wields a space-time domain?
"Forget it, I don't need the Gate to Boundless," Mist Whale thought to himself.
In the void, the massive form of the mist whale rapidly surged toward a certain point within its body. This point had already been ripped open by a spatial rift, and the mist whale's form was rushing toward it, plunging into it without looking back.
However, the fog whales are too large to be completely cleared in a short time.
From a great distance, Anthony, Negris, and Duroken, all wearing strange devices on their heads, were observing this direction. Upon seeing this, Anthony immediately realized, "Good, it seems the Fog Whale is going to run away."
"Run? Why run? What's the point of running? It's driving me crazy! Ang won't let us share his view, and we have no idea what's going on inside," Negris said anxiously and irritably.
Anthony said, "The adults don't let us share our vision for our own good. Didn't you see the Strange Tree appear? That thing has a sealing ability like a consciousness cage, which can seal our consciousness inside, and our bodies will fall apart."
"As for why running away is a good thing? It ran away, so the adults must have won, otherwise why would it run away?" Duroken added from the side.
However, he understood that Negris was too anxious to think. This was the first time it hadn't been by Ang's side during a battle. Although it couldn't help much, watching Ang fight and guessing how to fight were two completely different experiences.
"You won?" Negris tried it out and said, "They still won't let me share vision, so the game probably isn't over yet."
"The Fog Whale has started to run away now, it should be almost over, it's a pity we can't see the battle," Anthony said regretfully.
Unaware that the Fog Whale had already begun its escape, Ang, who was inside, gathered all the black skull bones and mist into the spacetime domain. He then looked towards the King and saw him emerge from a pile of gelatinous material.
He stood on the void, his fists alternately hooking upwards, each punch unleashing a powerful burst of energy. If it were just energy, it wouldn't be able to break through these strange gelatinous liquids, but the king's energy was shimmering with tiny stars. With each punch, the tiny stars in the energy shredded the gelatinous liquid into pieces.
However, this was clearly a very energy-consuming move. After breaking through the gelatinous liquid, the king immediately stopped this consumption, and when he threw his fist again, there were no more specks of energy in the aura.
Ang quickly flashed forward, arriving in front of the king and lashing out with his bone whip, striking the side where the king was standing.
The bone whip struck the gelatinous liquid a meter or so from the king's side, making a muffled "thud," like an iron rod striking cowhide.
The gelatinous liquid swelled up into a large bump, then spread out in ripples, and that was it. The Star Whip, capable of shattering a black crystal skull with a single lash, was utterly powerless against this gelatinous liquid.
However, Ang wasn't trying to extract the gelatinous liquid. After the force was dissipated, the bone whip simply rolled around and pulled the king back as well.
After the king was freed, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The cinnabar was used up too much. Don't use it lightly. Hmm, where are those black crystal skulls?"
The king was stunned. He had only been entangled by the suddenly erupting eerie tree for a short while, and now all the black crystal bones in the space had disappeared? Even the most powerful cleaner couldn't have cleaned it up that quickly.
Ang showed the time-space chessboard: "Here it is."
In a way, we have to thank the Fog Whale. Using the compressed space ball to shoot, like Ang did at the beginning, doesn't take away much of the Fog Whale's shape. The effect is similar to scraping.
However, it actively materialized the mist into black crystal skulls, then mixed them with the mist and twisted them around, almost like giving Ang a great gift. It sent a large number of black crystal skulls and mist into the spacetime domain at once, which was much more efficient than Ang's desperate scraping.
"You've packed it all in? How big is your space?" the king asked in astonishment.
Ang shook his head: "I don't know."
"..." The king was speechless. With Ang's Scales, he could weigh the size at a glance, but now he was saying he didn't know? The space inside must be so vast that it couldn't be seen at a glance.
"Never mind," the king said. "Follow me, I'll use the Stardust to rush out."
Ang immediately became ethereal and hung on the king's body. A powerful force surged in, and Ang felt as if he had rushed into a viscous substance, like heated sugar or scalding asphalt.
However, it only lasted for a short time. Ang felt a lightness all over his body. The king had already carried him out of the gelatinous liquid, his body covered in specks of liquid.
Perhaps out of sheer resentment, they had been avoiding any contact with the strange tree's consciousness when suddenly a thought swept over them.
Ang immediately focused his attention on its thoughts.
The ghost tree then realized what was happening, and its consciousness instinctively shrank back. Ang's consciousness was pulled along with it, and at the same time, it pushed with both hands: "King, go."
