Chapter 695: Chapter 225: Deeper into the Core Zone! Reaching 40% Construction Degree! Encountering Caesar! The Same Kind of Person
Three gazes traversed hundreds of thousands of miles of blazing light and chaotic force fields, crashing into each other in the void!
In that split second, countless streams of information and possibilities flashed through Qin Feng’s mind, colliding, being analyzed, and extrapolated.
His own Indestructible Projection was 10% complete, while the expert from Galaxy 99’s was at 12%. Their cultivation level was slightly higher than his.
Although it was only a two percent difference, at the Infinite Sea realm, every single percentage point in the construction of an Indestructible Projection represented a nearly insurmountable gap.
It was just like his own Immortal Tower—every new floor required tens of millions of "Brick Stones" to construct.
And a single percentage point represented the completion of at least ten floors of the tower!
That represented a terrifying difference of over one hundred million "Brick Stones"!
A 2% difference in cultivation level might seem minuscule, but it was, in fact, a world of difference.
Based on Qin Feng’s brief observation, the opponent had most likely cultivated their King’s Seal Inheritance Killing Technique to the ’Great Accomplishment’ stage.
Meanwhile, Qin Feng’s Heaven-swallowing Fist Technique had already reached ’Perfection.’
His advantage in killing techniques was where he was far ahead; Qin Feng estimated that even Caesar hadn’t reached Perfection.
’’Perfection’ versus ’Great Accomplishment’ should be enough to compensate for the 2% difference in cultivation. In terms of pure destructive power, I might even be slightly stronger.’
’But...’
Qin Feng’s train of thought didn’t pause for a second, instantly moving to a deeper strategic analysis.
’If this turns into a fight to the death, I might have a chance to win, but I definitely can’t take him down quickly.’
’Once he has me tied down, my position in this region will be completely exposed.’
’With Galaxy 99’s efficient intelligence and reinforcement network, it won’t be long before more and more top-tier experts arrive from all directions to corner me.’
’At that point, certain death will be all that awaits me.’
’So...’
’I have to leave.’
This conclusion formed in Qin Feng’s mind almost at the same time as his analysis.
He didn’t hesitate for a single moment.
The very next instant after his gaze clashed with those of Cang and the expert from Galaxy 99, Qin Feng’s figure transformed into a streak of light. He instantly changed direction and fled frantically toward the star’s core.
...
「On the battlefield.」
Cang, Flame Crow, and all the other experts from the five major galaxies who were desperately holding on clearly saw the streak of light that had just appeared and then instantly vanished into the distance.
For a moment, shock and bewilderment flashed across their faces.
Immediately after, that shock turned into resigned acceptance.
"It’s Qin Feng."
Flame Crow forced back an enemy’s flanking attack with his spear, speaking to the others through the Mental Power communication network.
"He ran."
"It was a wise decision to flee."
There was no trace of disappointment or anger on Cang’s face, only calm acceptance.
"Knowing his personality, the fact that he chose to run proves he wasn’t confident he could win."
"I estimate that in the past eleven years, he’s only managed to complete two or three percent of his ’Indestructible Projection’ at most."
"Facing an expert at 12%, trying to force a fight would just be throwing another life away."
"It looks like none of us are getting out of here this time."
Mobi blocked a terrifying blow from the expert with his axe, spraying blood from his mouth.
"We don’t have a chance anymore."
Cang’s gaze swept over his comrades, who were falling one by one. His voice was laced with an indescribable weariness and sorrow.
"By missing this great opportunity in the ’Barbaric Beast Graveyard,’ the overall power gap between us and Galaxy 99 will widen to an unimaginable degree."
"Everything now depends on the remaining ’Infinite Sea’ experts who haven’t been found yet."
It was obvious that the space outside this giant star had been blockaded by a massive force from Galaxy 99.
Once they were killed here, it would be extremely difficult for them to get another chance to re-enter the Barbaric Beast Graveyard—the location of the greatest opportunity in the current warzone—after their Rebirth.
Fall behind once, and you’ll always be behind.
A massive gap in power was what awaited them.
"With Qin Feng gone, at least we’ve preserved one spark."
After a moment of silence, Cang’s cold voice rang out once more.
He looked in the direction Qin Feng had disappeared, a flicker of incredibly complex hope in his eyes.
"Stop him."
"Don’t let him chase after Qin Feng."
The proposal needed no further explanation.
Everyone present instantly understood Cang’s intent.
They were already doomed to fall here.
So, before they died, they would preserve the last spark of hope for their side!
It was better for one to escape than for one more to die!
"Alright!"
"KILL!"
With no hesitation, no hint of delay.
In that moment, these top prodigies, who had competed and schemed against one another for centuries, erupted with an unprecedented, shared resolve!
They burned their life force, burned their Mental Power, and threw themselves forward to form a desperate human shield. Like moths to a flame, they stubbornly and frantically held the terrifying expert from Galaxy 99 in place!
...
「About a day later.」
Several more powerful presences descended from the distance.
The reinforcements had arrived.
After an utterly one-sided slaughter, Cang, Flame Crow, Mobi, Leng Yu... and over a dozen other trapped Infinite Sea experts from the five major galaxies were all slain. They dissolved into countless specks of light that scattered into the depths of the star.
And at that very moment, Qin Feng was still fleeing without pause, racing ever deeper into the star’s interior.
