677. Capture Squid Supreme
677. Capture Squid Supreme
In the Chaos, Lin Fei and the Clairvoyant Supreme were keeping a close watch on the Anlan Realm.
Suddenly, the realm began to shake violently. Lin Fei saw a small black dot forming within the Anlan Realm, which was rapidly expanding and emitting a destructive aura.
"What is this?" Lin Fei furrowed his brow in confusion.
Many Supremes had also witnessed this scene. They were all closely monitoring the Anlan Realm, ready to notice any change that might occur.
The Clairvoyant Supreme was puzzled at first, but as he focused his senses on the black dot, a realization struck him. His expression drastically changed as he exclaimed, "No good, that's an Annihilation Void!"
"Someone has unleashed an Annihilation Void in the Anlan Realm. Once the Annihilation Void matures, it will devour the entire realm and transform into a chaotic black hole, consuming everything! Damn it, how could someone release an Annihilation Void?"
Hearing the Clairvoyant Supreme's words, many Supremes immediately showed signs of alarm. Annihilation Voids and chaos black holes were infamously dangerous. Especially the chaos black hole, which is an advanced form of the Annihilation Void.
Once it has devoured enough matter, particularly after consuming numerous realms, the Annihilation Void transforms into a chaotic black hole. By then, even top-tier Supremes could be effortlessly swallowed by it, showcasing the terrifying nature of chaotic black holes.
Aware of the chaos black hole's dreadful potential, many Supremes disregarded the Chaos Pearl and fled immediately. The Clairvoyant Supreme's expression turned grim as he glanced at Lin Fei, but Lin Fei appeared surprisingly calm, seemingly unconcerned about the Annihilation Void.
The Clairvoyant Supreme couldn't help but express his concern to Lin Fei, "Supreme Lin, chaos black holes are extraordinary, and even top-tier Supremes struggle against them. Any Supreme swallowed by a chaotic black hole has never returned. Should we not prepare early? Do we continue waiting here, or should we leave to avoid being affected by the chaotic black hole?"
Lin Fei, without lifting his gaze from the Anlan Realm, responded slowly, "The transformation of an Annihilation Void into a chaos black hole is almost universally known. So, who released the Annihilation Void? And what is the purpose? Is it merely to destroy the Anlan Realm? But what would be the point of destroying the realm, especially now when the Chaos Pearl is being contested?"
"Unless," Lin Fei continued, his voice steady, "the person who released the Annihilation Void intended to create chaos or tension to facilitate their escape from the Anlan Realm. So, who would need to flee the Anlan Realm urgently?"
Lin Fei maintained his composure, even managing to analyze the intricacies of the situation amidst the crisis. The Clairvoyant Supreme was momentarily taken aback but quickly grasped Lin Fei's implication.
"Supreme Lin, are you suggesting that someone has obtained the Chaos Pearl and is trying to flee the Anlan Realm by unleashing the Annihilation Void?"
"Most likely," Lin Fei affirmed. "It won't be long before someone attempts to leave the Anlan Realm. By then, we'll know exactly what's happening."
Seeing Lin Fei so composed, the Clairvoyant Supreme also calmed down. His primary goal was still the Chaos Pearl. How could he be content without securing it? Moreover, the Anlan Realm hadn't collapsed yet, and it would take some time before the Annihilation Void fully transformed into a chaotic black hole. They still had a chance.
"Alright, then we wait!" declared the Clairvoyant Supreme, resolving firmly. "Let's see who dares to challenge our formation."
As time ticked by, some chaos seemed to stir within the Anlan Realm, yet no one had yet dared to breach Lin Fei and the Clairvoyant Supreme's defensive setup. Lin Fei was not in a hurry. He had all the time he needed.
On the contrary, it was the Supremes within the Anlan Realm who should be worried. If the chaos black hole were to spread, it would devour the Anlan Realm first, and no one could escape.
As the streak of light dashed through, the Clairvoyant Supreme's body jolted with adrenaline. He spotted the radiant trail escaping from the Anlan Realm, blatantly ignoring the defensive formations set up by himself and Lin Fei. The figure tried to break directly through the barriers and leave the area.
"Stop!" the Clairvoyant Supreme commanded as he thrust forward with a punch, channeling his full force into a ferocious blow aimed at the escaping streak of light. His intention wasn't to cause harm but merely to halt the escapee.
However, the streak of light accelerated even further.
"Boom!"Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The light clashed head-on with the Clairvoyant Supreme's punch but shockingly, it didn't stop; it continued its flight towards the deeper chaos of the void. The Clairvoyant Supreme's punch had failed to even slow it down.
"Top-tier Supreme! It must be a top-tier Supreme!" The Clairvoyant Supreme felt a sinking feeling in his heart. This individual was even stronger than Nebula Supreme; otherwise, his all-out punch would have at least slowed the escapee down.
Though it seemed the figure was about to escape, the Clairvoyant Supreme wasn't worried because he knew Lin Fei was still there.
Lin Fei's still presence meant escape was unlikely.
At this moment, Squid Supreme was exultant. He had risked everything to break out of the Anlan Realm. Despite facing opposition from a top-tier Supreme, he didn't hesitate and managed to escape successfully. He had suffered significant losses, but ultimately, he had broken free.
"It seems the rumors of Supremes lying in wait outside the Anlan Realm are true," Squid Supreme thought to himself. "But the rumors of their strength, capable of slaying top-tier Supremes, seem exaggerated."
"Hmph, once I escape and fully harness the Chaos Pearl, I'll be one step closer to becoming a Master of Chaos," he pondered ambitiously. "Even if I don't reach that level, I should at least attain the status of a Doomsday Supreme..."
As Squid Supreme reveled in the thrill of his escape, his thoughts were already turning towards the future — how he would cultivate with the Chaos Pearl, and whether he might even ascend to become a Master of Chaos.
The current situation in the Anlan Realm, along with the Clairvoyant Supreme and others, no longer mattered to him. He was fast, incredibly fast. Once he broke out of the encirclement, catching him would be an impossible task for any other Supreme.
However, just as Squid Supreme was swept up in his triumph, a sudden vibration changed everything. The sky around him darkened abruptly. A beam of light, swift and overpowering, enveloped him before he could react.
Rendered helpless, Squid Supreme felt his body distort and in an instant, he found himself transported to an unfamiliar void. This was no longer the chaos — that much was clear to him.
"This isn't the Chaos? Where am I? How did I get here?" Squid Supreme's mind raced, a sense of foreboding tightening his chest.
"Surrender the Chaos Pearl, and you may be spared," a voice echoed around him. Then, he 'saw' two figures. No, it was Lin Fei and the Clairvoyant Supreme! Lin Fei had deliberately allowed Squid Supreme to see both of them, making it clear to him just how precarious his situation was.
"You... you're the Supremes who were lying in wait outside the Anlan Realm?" Squid Supreme stammered disbelief etched across his features. "Didn't I break through your blockade? And your formation, how am I still caught by you?"
Squid Supreme could hardly believe his eyes. He had expended every resource at his disposal, yet he had failed to escape?
