Chapter 991 - - 643 First Saint ran away_2

—————✧✧✧✧—————

The First Saint had used the Holy Apple to help enhance his Cultivation Level and restore his Taoist Fruit.

But no matter how much his attributes had improved, he could never catch up to Duge without the help of other Alien Warriors, facing Duge alone was practically suicide.

The Daoist Ancestor had long cursed the First Saint inside his heart.

At this point, he had no other ideas and said in a panic, “Duge, I surrender.”

Duge didn’t have time to deal with him and immediately pursued the Thorne Divine King.

Both the Thorne Divine King and the First Saint knew that Duge possessed the Backstab Skill, neither dared to turn and run, both using Instantaneous Movement.

Duge was already as fast as the Thorne Divine King, and in an instant, he caught up with him, smashing his Force Field Shield with a punch and sending the Immortal Emperor flying out with a backhand blow.

Bang!

Aah!

Two screams echoed.

The first scream came from the Thorne Divine King, he was hit by a Backstab that ignored defenses, pain instantly swept over his entire body, and he curled up.

The second scream was from the Immortal Emperor, his Force Field Shield had recovered too quickly. Although the Skill never missed, his body was not as tough as the Thorne Divine King’s and hit the freshly regenerated Shield.

His entire leg shattered on the spot.

Alien Warriors could heal injuries, but not regenerate limbs, and the Immortal Emperor was left with just one leg after the wound healed. Luckily, Duge was there to shove him into the Dark Space, avoiding the space collapse.

Otherwise, he would have been torn apart by the First Saint’s space collapse.

Due to his Skill, the Immortal Emperor also had his Cultivation Level replenished after consuming the Golden Apple from the Rad Divine Clan. But even with his Cultivation Level, he was no match for a Divine King level opponent on the battlefield.

As for the Queen Mother of the West, with the protection of the King of Heavenly Gods, she was in no danger…

The one who was truly unlucky was the Daoist Ancestor. The moment he said he surrendered, the Spatial Slash landed beside him, and half of his body was sliced away.

But after all, the Daoist Ancestor was the Daoist Ancestor, possessed of supernatural talents. He created his own method of cultivating the Taoist Fruit in this world, and in an instant, he restored his body. But that was all he could do, aspiring to counterattack and dominate the Universe for many years with just a Shard Spirit, he wasn’t capable yet: “Duge, assist me, I am the Daoist Ancestor, I can help you achieve the Primordial Tao Fruit…”

While the Thorne God-king was stiffening up, Duge had already swiped him, turning him into his own property.

Tossing the Origin of Mankind into the bosom of the Thorne God-king to win hearts, Duge flashed back to the side of the Daoist Ancestor and swiped him too.

The Daoist Ancestor did not dodge, letting Duge turn him into his own property. Things had come to this point, and he had resigned himself to his fate, incapable of confronting both Duge and the First Saint at the same time.

The Thorne Divine King, upon receiving the Origin of Mankind, wept with joy, becoming Duge’s property and no longer thinking of resisting him but instead gathered the energy of the Universe Sword to block all the First Saint’s routes of evasion: “Saint, stop running, you can’t win anymore.”

“Presumptuous child!” roared the First Saint in despair as a spatial rift suddenly tore open before his eyes, and he leaped into it.

Duge had planned to swing a punch to disrupt the spatial passage, but at the very moment he swung, he froze, watching the First Saint escape into a Companion Universe.

“Duge, why did you let him escape?” the King of Heavenly Gods asked, puzzled, “You clearly could have stopped him. Now that he has fled into another universe, he might return at any time, putting us on the defensive.”

“Yes!” Thorne God-king also expressed regret, “The First Saint said that decades ago, he already had the ability to tear through the Universe’s barriers, just fearing death and injury, he didn’t dare to verify. Now, forced into another universe, as long as he lives, he holds the ability to travel through the Universe, and guarding against him will be difficult, you should’ve kept him here.”

“No matter, he can’t escape, I feel that my own strength is almost strong enough to break through the Universe barriers,” Duge said with a smile, “Gentlemen, let’s clean up the aftermath, nothing in this Universe can stop us now.”

Others didn’t understand why, but Duge knew full well: the moment the First Saint tore through the universe, he sensed his Soul Fragment.

The Soul Fragment’s memories instantly merged with his, letting him know of Pan-Universe Entertainment’s plan.

Have the Soul Fragment duel with him?

Are they kidding?

He had already controlled the entire Universe where he could shatter the void in minutes, what could a Shard Spirit do in a fight against him?

Sending the Shard Spirit into a Companion Universe, after he had revealed himself, what exactly did Pan-Universe Entertainment intend to do?

Expand the Alien Battlefield?

So, did that mean that the current Alien Battlefield would not end anytime soon?

Or, did Pan-Universe Entertainment already know his plan, deliberately sending the Soul Fragment into the Alien Battlefield, so as to not let his soul be complete, continuing to control him?

Duge was puzzled, each reason seemed plausible, but none made sense, and he knew too little about Pan-Universe Entertainment.

What is the state of Pan-Universe Entertainment’s Soul Fragment now?

If Pan-Universe Entertainment continues to infinitely divide his soul, when will he be able to complete it?

However,

from the Soul Fragment, Duge also learned about the existence of another Companion Universe.

In that universe, there is likewise a competition between several supreme civilizations; but unlike his own universe, the most powerful civilization in the Companion Universe is the Rad Divine Clan.

The Rad Holy One of the Rad Divine Clan, with overwhelming martial force, has aggressively suppressed the Thorne Divine Tribe and the Heavenly Gods Clan. The Origin of Mankind belonging to the Thorne Divine Tribe was seized by the Rad Holy One long ago, and only by seeking the protection of the Heavenly Gods Clan can they barely contend with the Rad Divine Clan…

Still containing Duge’s original soul, after being sent to the Alien Battlefield, it retained two key terms.

His primary keyword was “Chaos,” and the secondary keyword was “Salvation.”

The identity that the Soul Fragment chose for possession belonged to a ruler under the Rad Divine Clan.

At this moment,

the Soul Fragment had already awakened two skills related to “Chaos” and one related to “Salvation.”

The skills of Chaos were “Order in Chaos” and “Confusion.”

Order in Chaos: In chaotic circumstances, he remains rational at all times, unaffected by external interference or influence;

Confusion: The illusions he creates release false information, making it difficult for others to discern the truth;

So far, only one skill has been awakened under Salvation.

Absolution: Those evil ones you save, along with their relatives, will be deeply grateful to you;

…

After receiving the memory of the Shard Spirit, Duge could have instantly reclaimed the shard of his spirit from the Companion Universe, but at the last moment, he dismissed the thought.

Currently, the three skills possessed by the Shard Spirit had allowed it to rise to the position of a Rad Divine Tribe’s Saint Heir. He was planning the war between the Rad Divine Clan and the Heavenly Gods Clan to expand his influence.

At this point, to recall him would be akin to a direct fallout with Pan-Universe Entertainment. If the company were to end the Alien Battlefield at this time, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Moreover, Duge felt that he was on the verge of touching the Primordial Tao Fruit; he did not want any complications at this moment.

Breaking through the Universe barriers and entering the Companion Universe, he could still reclaim the Shard Spirit later…

The Shard Spirit had also received his memories and knew that the God Annihilator Cannon could break the original Duge’s soul and restore all his skills. With that ace up his sleeve, his rise in the Companion Universe should not be difficult.

By then, the territory conquered by the Shard Spirit would also be his.

The question is whether the Shard Spirit would choose to release the soul, especially since when the original Duge was shattered, his keyword of freedom vanished.

And if the Shard Spirit’s main keyword “Chaos” were to disappear, only “Salvation” would remain.

The power gained from other keywords doesn’t increase as rapidly as “Chaos.”

However,

given Duge’s understanding of himself, chances are he would use “Chaos” to maximize his power before releasing the other remaining keywords…

At this time, the greatest challenge to the Shard Spirit comes not from the people of the Companion Universe but the First Saint, who has just escaped.

The First Saint, realizing that the Companion Universe has also been invaded by Pan-Universe Entertainment, will likely exploit the Alien Warriors extensively. Perhaps, he may even seek out another Rad Holy One…

Thinking of the Rad Holy One of the Companion Universe, Duge was taken aback again.

That’s not right.

The Rad Holy One of the other universe suppressed the Heavenly Gods Clan and the Thorne Divine Tribe, and also seized the Origin of Mankind, which is enough evidence that he possesses the Primordial Tao Fruit.

If the First Saint of this universe can tear through space, then the Holy One from the other universe should also possess the ability to break through Universe barriers; hence, he should have known about the events occurring in this universe long ago.

Tear through space!?

Could it be the Rad Holy One from the other universe who helped Kaska steal the Origin of Mankind thirty years ago?
