1685 Pirate Group, Billions, Two Options
Many s.p.a.ce pirates gathered in a single spot.
Some of the well-known s.p.a.ce pirates of Central Heaven Universe were known as the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates, which meant that thirty-six powerful s.p.a.ce pirates led their own fleets.
More than half of the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates were affiliated with the Dao King Tribe.
At that moment, four of the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates had gathered — the Starfire Pirate, Skymoon Pirate, Red Devil Pirate, and b.u.mblebee Pirate.
!!
The four of them were not the strongest among the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates, but they were all Five Qi-realm elites. They were not only powerful, but in addition to the hundred millions of s.p.a.ce pirates they led, even a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal would think twice before fighting them.
Now, the four of them gathered just to target a single person.
“I’ve gotten news that the Heavenly Sword is coming our way,” the b.u.mblebee Pirate said as antic.i.p.ation flashed in his eyes.
The Heavenly Sword’s name had spread across the entire Central Heaven Universe, so even the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates had heard of him and were eager to meet him.
Moreover, the Dao King Tribe had placed a bounty on him.
“Very well. The four of us will set a trap for him here. No matter how powerful he is, he won’t be able to escape,” the Red Devil Pirate said and laughed out loud.
The man was as buff as a small rocky hill, and his body was covered in a crimson flame that burned rampantly.
He was from the Red Devil Tribe and was one of the few within the tribe who made it to the Arch Gilded Immortal Realm.
“I heard the Heavenly Sword possesses the most powerful treasure in this universe, the Void Sword. Even without the bounty from the Dao King Tribe, the sword alone is worth the trip,” said the Starfire Pirate.
“I heard the Heavenly Sword is a handsome man who bears a transcendent presence and that many female cultivators fell for him at first glance. I would really like to see how handsome he is, and if it’s possible, I would want to get him for myself!” said the Skymoon Pirate as she smacked her lips.
The Starfire Pirate was a woman with beautiful looks and a voluptuous body. The cutla.s.s at her waist was her signature.
The four of them talked as if they had captured Chu Kuangren.
“Brother, we’ve spotted the Heavenly Sword’s wars.h.i.+p,” said one of the Red Devil Pirate’s men.
“Very well! Let’s move out!”
The Red Devil Pirate cackled with laughter as he led his fleet out.
Tens of thousands of wars.h.i.+ps scattered and formed pincer formations.
Meanwhile, Ling Fei sensed something ahead. His expression changed when he realized they were cruising straight into the enemy’s trap.
“d.a.m.n it. We’re surrounded!”
He released his Immortal Consciousness to scan the place, and when he counted all the wars.h.i.+ps, his gaze turned grim. “No wonder it’s been a smooth sail until now. They’re all waiting for us here.”
Han Xingyu held the Void Sword tighter to herself.
Feng Qingxue, who was on the other s.h.i.+p, did not react well to what she saw as well. She gasped in shock when she saw the leading pirates.
“Oh my goodness! The Starfire Pirate, the Skymoon Pirate, the Red Devil Pirate, and the b.u.mblebee Pirate! Four of the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates are here!”
Feng Qingxue could already smell despair in the air.
Most of the Thirty-Six s.p.a.ce Pirates were well-known cultivators, and each of them could easily overpower anyone in the younger generations.
Now with four of them together and the hundred millions of s.p.a.ce pirates in their opponent’s fleet, it was impossible to escape.
“Red Devil Pirate, how dare you ambush us here? Aren’t you afraid of the Spiritual Sword Tribe and the Feng clan? Are you trying to get your fleet wiped?” Ling Feng shouted, attempting to scare his opponent.
He tried to scare his opponent away with the King Tribe’s name since it would be impossible for them to take on that many s.p.a.ce pirates.
However, the Red Devil Pirate cackled. “We have always been in the pirate business, and killing the Heavenly Sword is the Dao King Tribe’s order. You should go to them if you want revenge. Besides, after we kill the Heavenly Sword, we would definitely find a place to hide from the King Tribes.”
The universe was boundless. If the s.p.a.ce pirates wanted to hide, it would be difficult to locate them.
Ling Fei’s heart sank.
The s.p.a.ce pirates were prepared for that.
It meant that a fierce battle was inevitable.
“Where is the Heavenly Sword? Why isn’t he here himself?”
The Red Devil Pirate did not see Chu Kuangren on deck, so he scoffed and said, “Is he scared?”
“Hmph!” Ling Fei grunted without explaining much.
“Boys, show them what we’ve got!” the Red Devil Pirate cackled.
The wars.h.i.+ps in the area aimed their cannons at Ling Fei and Feng Qingxue’s s.h.i.+ps.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dazzling energy cannons flew across s.p.a.ce, going straight for their s.h.i.+ps.
“Activate the energy barrier!” Ling Fei shouted.
Han Xingyu immediately performed a hand seal and hit the s.h.i.+p with it. Energy barriers immediately appeared and protected the s.h.i.+p from the incoming beams; Feng Qingxue’s s.h.i.+p did the same.
However, after the first round of bombardment, the dazzling energy barriers were already weakened to the point of shattering.
“There’s another round coming,” Ling Fei said heavily.
Their wars.h.i.+p was an expensive one as it was forged using the best materials and formations in Central Heaven Universe.
However, no matter how expensive their s.h.i.+p was, it would not survive the endless bombardment from tens of thousands of wars.h.i.+ps.
One more round of bombardment, and the s.h.i.+p would go down. Then, they would be drowned in the powerful energy stream.
“Again!” the Red Devil Pirate shouted.
In the sky, dazzling runic light lit up, and surges of energy gathered at the mouth of the cannon.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Another round of bombardment rained down on Ling Fei and Feng Qinxue’s s.h.i.+ps.
Right before the energy cannons could hit their s.h.i.+ps, billions of sword qi surged into s.p.a.ce, intercepting the beams and blasting them into pieces.
The ma.s.sive and consecutive explosion was like a grand fireworks show.
All the cannons were shot down!
“The sword qi…”
The Red Evil Pirate and the others were shocked, and their expression turned solemn.
They then looked at the pavilion on Ling Fei’s s.h.i.+p, which was where the countless sword qi came from.
As soon as the s.p.a.ce pirates landed their gaze on it, a cold voice sounded from within.
“You people have two options: flee before I appear and you will have the slightest chance to survive or struggle before I kill you all.”
Bam!
A terrifying sword aura erupted from the small pavilion and filled the airs.p.a.ce.
Stars and planets shook at its might.
When the countless bloodthirsty s.p.a.ce pirates sensed the sword aura in s.p.a.ce, they trembled in fear.
“Heavenly Sword!”
“Is this the Heavenly Sword’s power?! He’s indeed terrifying.”
The Red Devil Pirate and the others had never looked so solemn before.
However, they were not deterred. If they were deterred by mere words, they were not notorious s.p.a.ce pirates.
Just then, the pavilion’s door opened.
A figure in white came out with a terrifying sword aura and dazzling Immortal Sparks around him!
