Phantom Drift Territorial Domain.
I he news of Five Burial Stars being besieged quickly spread, drawing the attention of many major forces.
As the saying goes, wherever there is conflict, there will undoubtedly be the “war correspondents” of the Virtual Universe Corporation!
Well, colloquially known as “paparazzi”!
In reality, no one knew which individuals secretly disseminated information on behalf of the Virtual Universe Corporation.
However, the Virtual Universe Corporation always managed to get the latest information and disseminate it promptly.
The Phantom Drift Territorial Domain was home to six major dominant forces: Five Burial Stars, Shadow Fortress, Azure Sky Island, Golden Peak City, the Longlapa Empire, and finally, the universe pirates.
Among the universe pirates, the strongest were Red Dragon, Black Skull, and White Night.
These three pirate groups made other major forces wary, and they dared not easily provoke them.
Simultaneously, these forces sought to eliminate the three major pirate groups, but the universe pirates, not only powerful but also as cunning as foxes, were challenging to pin down.
While the other forces had fixed territories, governing entire star systems, the universe pirates lacked a fixed domain. They roamed through various star domains in the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain, making wherever they went their domain.
By the time others discovered the tracks of the universe pirates, they might have already relocated.
It could be said that the unique nature of the universe pirates contributed to their status as one of the six major forces in the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain.
Of course, it was likely that only a turbulent place like the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain could breed such powerful ent.i.ties as the three major pirate groups.
Azure Sky Island.
This was a ma.s.sive floating island suspended in the starry sky, boasting an area even larger than a super-giant life-bearing planet.
In the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain, the Azure Sky Island was considered a marvel.
The environment here was significantly better than that of Five Burial Stars. Spring occurred all year round, with abundant Forces of various elements and countless precious treasures. This favorable environment had given rise to many powerful warriors and attracted numerous foreign martial warriors to settle here.
However, gaining entry into Azure Sky Island was no easy feat.
All external martial warriors had to undergo rigorous screening, and their talents and qualifications were a.s.sessed before being acknowledged by Azure Sky Island, allowing them to settle within.
“Five Burial Stars is besieged by the Black Skull Universe Pirates! Hahaha, they truly deserve it!”
At this moment, upon hearing the news of Five Burial Stars being besieged, the people of Azure Sky Island couldn’t help but burst into laughter, reveling in schadenfreude.
The forces of Five Burial Stars and Azure Sky Island were adjacent, and over the years, they had numerous conflicts.
Now, witnessing Five Burial Star trapped in such a predicament, they naturally felt a sense of satisfaction.
Similarly pleased were the members of the Longlapa Empire, which also shared borders with Five Burial Stars.
The Longlapa Empire held a status in the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain similar to that of the Great Qian Empire in the Liuguang Territorial Domain, both being high-level civilizations.
With vast territories and countless powerful individuals under their command, these empires were forces to be reckoned with.
On the other hand, ent.i.ties like Golden Peak City and Shadow Fortress observed the situation with detachment. They had little connection with Five Burial Stars and were not significantly affected by the conflict.
However, they couldn’t help but wonder why the Black Skull Universe Pirates would besiege Five Burial Stars.
Meanwhile, the news circulating outside claimed that Five Burial Stars had captured the young master of the Black Skull Universe Pirates as a slave-a story many found implausible.
Would the heir of the Black Skull Universe Pirates be foolish enough to be captured and enslaved?
This was a little ridiculous.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t fathom what the Black Skull Universe Pirates were truly after.
Within the divine kingdom of the Longlapa Empire, a figure enshrouded in divine radiance sat high on a divine throne. A majestic and solemn voice emanated.
“Yaheng, pay a visit to Five Burial Stars, and bring Sh.e.l.ly with you!”
“Yes!”
Below the divine throne, a group of universe-stage martial warriors, and even eternal-stage beings, stood. Among them, one martial warrior stepped forward, respectfully bowing.
Before long, an eternal-level s.p.a.cecraft bearing the emblem of the Longlapa Empire departed from the main star of the empire, heading towards Five Burial Stars.
“That looks like Duke Yaheng’s s.p.a.cecraft! Where is he going?”
“That direction seems to be Five Burial Stars!”
“It seems the situation with the besieged Five Burial Stars is not as simple as it appears. Even Duke Yaheng is going there!”
Many people noticed the departure of this eternal-level s.p.a.cecraft and began discussing it fervently.
The Shadow Fortress was located in an extremely secretive s.p.a.ce, seldom discovered by outsiders.
As an a.s.sa.s.sination organization, it specialized in dealing with various dark affairs, boasting a reputation even more sinister than the universe pirates.
Among the five major forces, the one even the universe pirates hesitated to provoke was undoubtedly the Shadow Fortress.
Even the three major pirate groups held a considerable fear of the Shadow Fortress.
The strength of the Shadow Fortress was comparable to that of Five Burial Stars, Golden Peak City, and Azure Sky Island. However, the real core members remained unknown to the public.
This was what people feared about the Shadow Fortress.
As long as their core remained concealed, no one could touch them.
These core members handled all the dark affairs for the Shadow Fortress, and they even collaborated with various forces.
Moreover, their operations extended far beyond the Phantom Drift Territorial Domain.
At this moment, within the hidden fortress, a dark and ancient castle, a voice echoed, “Shadow Jade King, take a few prodigies and head to Five Burial Stars.”
“Huh?”
Inside the dimly lit castle, a figure slowly opened his eyes in the darkness and spoke in a chilly and skeptical voice..
