Chapter 710: A Deal With Distancia\'s Top Powers.
"Did you think that we are here to speak to you nicely?"
Fu Lang Zu\'s smile widened, and his eyes shone with mockery.
"A little new first-ranked power that doesn\'t know the immensity of the heavens."
The people around tensed, feeling energy gathering toward the wolf Patriarch.
"You could take that old fool from the Five Fang Snake clan by surprise. However, you can\'t resist all the top-level powerhouses that are gathered here."
Yasenia looked at him coldly. The four Matriarchs beside her stepped in front of Yasenia. Coraline spoke flatly. "Fu Lang Zu, are we invisible to you?"
The wolf Patriarch\'s smile widened, and Yasenia lost sight of his figure. The next instant, he was in front of Coraline, punching forward.
Coraline calmly extended her arm and met his punch with a palm strike.
The air around them exploded, pushing everything outward. Yet, the massive strength created a vacuum in the air that sucked everything inside, making the air violently compress and explode twice with one exchange.
Tengliu and the others reacted quickly, wanting to step before Yasenia to protect her from the shockwave. However, before any of them could respond, the mysterious Doriel was already in front of Yasenia, using her aura to protect her.
Even with the massive explosive aftershock, Yasenia\'s long hair only moved like a soft gale had phased through her.
Fu Lang Zu looked at Coraline with a smile and laughed. "As expected of you, Sun Lobster Queen. You didn\'t even move after my strike."
Coraline\'s face was frosty, and before they could react, every single plant in a one-hundred-meter radius burst into flames with her aura.
"Hey, pup, do you know who is behind me?"
Fu Lang Zu\'s smile froze, looking at Coraline with confusion. "The dragon?"
Coraline used swift hand movements, and before he could react, she placed herself before him in a perfect position to shoulder throw, which she did as she answered.
"My daughter."
BOOOM!
The ground exploded as if a meteor had landed, and Doriel grabbed Yasenia by the waist before retreating more than a kilometer instantly.
The other girls were already within a safe distance.
After the dust cleared, Yasenia couldn\'t help but suck in a deep breath.
The enormous crater was greater than what her most potent attack could create, and Coraline\'s brute strength created it with just her raw strength. \'I\'m really no match against the top powers.\'
High-level Epoch Cores and Peak-level Epoch cores were in another dimension strength-wise compared to low-level and middle-level ones. Even Sarah\'s burst, allowing her to become a false peak-level Dantian Spiritualization, was enough to kill her ten times over. Not to mention those who reached those heights naturally.
Coraline elegantly floated where she previously was, and about a hundred meters down the crater she created, Fu Lang Zu was spread like a starfish and grunting in pain.
The man laughed after coughing once. "Scary~, scary~. You are really a monster, Lobster Queen."
Then, he stood up leisurely, patting the rubble from his clothes, and jumped out of the crater.
"Coraline, don\'t go too far."
This voice came from a man standing at the side with a clear, powerful, and intimidating aura around him.
Coraline looked over indifferently with her purple eyes. "Admiral Tidal Crest, if any of you dare target my daughter, even if I have to sacrifice everything, I\'ll hunt you down."
The man was more than two meters tall and very muscular. He answered. "This is a matter between Yasenia Dravory and us. As long as the young lobster steps aside, there are no problems."
Ebirah pouted and shouted. "Yasenia is my friend! I won\'t move aside."
The girls smiled softly, and Coraline lifted one of her eyebrows. "You heard her. What Yasenia said previously is correct, and what Fu Lang Zu has said is also correct. With Tengliu, Wuria, Gireila, and me, I think it is enough for her to be able to maintain her treasures with no problems."
Her gaze calmly turned and landed on Cao Chenghua. "Don\'t you think so?"
Cao Chenghua looked at Coraline and spoke lightly. "I still believe that it will benefit the entire continent more if she shares them. While your four powers can reach out to a large part of the population, if The Supremes got it, everyone will be able to benefit."
The man called Admiral Tidal Crest spoke. "The Continental Shadows is also interested in them."
Coraline\'s gaze landed on a dragon man wearing golden robes. "What about you? Do you think this is fair?"
The man she spoke to was called Monarch Beastmaster, one of the top five people from the Holy Beast Empire.
After a few seconds, he spoke. "She has to prove that she can retain them herself, not with the help of others."
Coraline frowned. \'If all three sides join hands, it will be a bit difficult to protect the little girl.\'
When she was about to speak, Yasenia interrupted. "Sure."
Every leader was surprised and instantly turned to look at her.
Yasenia smiled. "What? Did I say it too quietly? I said sure, I\'ll prove that I have the strength to keep them."
Monarch Beastmaster asked. "How?"
Yasenia grinned. "Well, there are three factions that want my treasures. We are currently inside the secret realm\'s \'safe area,\' and there is that giant portal I need to cross to exit the secret realm."
For those who had forgotten, the passage to enter the Secret Realm was an enormous cave entrance that dwarfed even some mountains. Beyond that long passage, it was the place they currently were.
A large prairie with no trees surrounded by the forest. This forest was the actual entrance to the Secret Realm, where powerhouses couldn\'t cross.
The dragoness explained. "I\'m sure that the Supremes and those called World Arbiters are righteous people, so they will probably keep their word. However, I\'m a bit worried about the third group. Therefore, I ask you two to step forward if they infringe the conditions I\'m about to suggest."
Cao Chenghua and Monarch Beast master nodded.
Yasenia smiled at Fu Lang Zu, lifting her hand with the beautiful and ethereal spatial ring. "All the treasures my power has collected are in my Spatial Ring. The objective of the three groups will be snatching this Spatial Ring before I leave the secret realm. Taking into account the length of the prairie from where I am and the tunnel, it is about 20 kilometers. I think this distance is long enough for you, the superpowers of the entire continent, to stop me."
The dragoness looked at the others and smiled further. Yet, almost all of them could see mockery in her smile. "However, if you are unsuccessful, you will never covet my treasures again. Of course, not counting fair trades, which, by the way, no one has done since the beginning." Yasenia laughed, looking at the leaders of the Supreme and World Arbiter groups. "Isn\'t it fun? You could\'ve used treasures to exchange, but no one was \'clever\' enough to think of such a complicated method. I must say that I feel quite clever. Isn\'t that right, mister righteous people?"
The people spectating realized this and couldn\'t help but look strangely at them. After all, if their objective were to nurture people with powerful cultivation treasures, trading them for powerful treasures would be considered a bargain for them.
For the first time, a few lofty expressions cracked from the two "morally superior" groups. They were so eager to get the cultivation techniques that they didn\'t consider trading.
Yasenia asked. "How is it? You have to prevent me from crossing that giant tunnel and cut off my hand, which in turn can also work as a punishment for being… \'rude.\'" She enunciated the last word, making it clear that she didn\'t feel that way.
After hearing her, Yasenia\'s calm suggestion made many shudder.
The way Yasenia spoke about cutting off limbs felt as if this was not the first time or as if it was nothing that mattered to her, which made it terrifying to think deeply about.
While deep wounds were recoverable, when a limb was cut off, it was much more difficult to recover because nothing was in that place, neither meridians, nerves, nor anything else.
Additionally, medicine that recovered limbs usually didn\'t recover them to a hundred percent, making the person lose combat power permanently.
Well, they didn\'t know that Yasenia had many ways to heal such a wound without secondary effects, but that was another thing altogether.
The seniors looked at the single passage with pondering expressions. While 20 kilometers was nothing for experts at their levels, and many could cross such distances instantly, traveling that distance while fighting was another thing.
Even if Yasenia had spatial treasures, they were confident in being able to cut them off before such treasures activated.
Fu Lang Zu spoke. "I disagree. The best outcome is making them disappear and get all their treasures. Why does it matter if we are selfish this once? People will eventually forget."
Cao Chenghua and Monarch Beastmaster looked over with frowns. However, it was not because of his suggestion but because Fu Lang Zu was the spokesperson.
One must know that for the last 10,000 years, the spokesperson of The Continental Shadow group has always been the Ocean Chasm Empire.
Ignoring his proposal, Cao Chenghua and Monarch Beastmaster agreed. Cao Chenghua added. "If they hunt you down after you cross the Secret Realm, we will protect you."
While they weren\'t pleased with Yasenia\'s proposal, too many eyes were lying around that could damage their reputation.
Not to mention Coraline\'s, Tengliu\'s, Wuria\'s, and Gireila\'s presence made it much more difficult to "silence" the opinions.
Yasenia nodded. "Perfect. I\'ll throw this low-level Parus upward. When it begins descending, we\'ll start."
Fu Lang Zu snorted, but he didn\'t charge forward after he received a look from Tengliu and Coraline.
Yasenia turned around and spoke. "You girls, don\'t get involved this time."
The girls were surprised. This was quite unlike the usual Yasenia. "Why?"
The dragoness rolled her eyes. "What is easier, protecting one or protecting 40? Don\'t worry, I won\'t toss the coin until you create a safety formation so they can\'t do something funny."
Tatyana looked at Yasenia for a second and nodded. "Sure."
Yasenia smiled, and the other girls struggled to accept it, even if what Yasenia said was logical.
The dragoness saw their reluctance, and her heart melted with tender feelings. "Come here. Nothing will happen to me."
The five of them surrounded her quickly in a tight hug, making the dragoness laugh happily as her tail wagged.
Tengliu frowned and approached with worry in her violet eyes after Yasenia separated. "Little Yasenia, are you sure about this? Even if you go back in your words now and let us help, nobody will say anything."
Yasenia looked at Tengliu and smiled, giving her a surprise hug. "Don\'t worry, I\'m confident. I can\'t die before I punish you properly, right?"
Tengliu stiffened, and a rare honest blush covered her cheeks. "Yes…"
When the dragoness separated from the group, an extremely complex and powerful formation surrounded all the girls and sect members.
Tatyana personally created it, and even if a peak-level Dantian Spiritualization would go berserker on it, it probably wouldn\'t budge for a while.
The only people outside the formation were Yasenia and Doriel.
Doriel looked around with her exotic, entirely black, obsidian-like eyes.
The dragoness looked around with a smirk and retrieved a low-level Parus coin. Then, without saying anything, the clinging sound of her nail throwing it up was heard.
Everything was silent.
For a moment, that coin became the most important thing in the World, as every powerhouse present was focused on it.
It went up and up and up, slowing down because of gravity.
Yasenia\'s pupils thinned to lines as she focused her five senses on that coin.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
And finally, it stopped.
All the powerhouses present aura exploded like a massive bomb, making the air feel as if it had solidified.
However, before they could even move, Yasenia\'s figure disappeared.
They were all instantly confused and searched for her with their spiritual sense.
Their expressions changed when they found Yasenia and Doriel outside the secret realm.
In Yasenia\'s hand, one of her life-saving talismans was disappearing.
It was a [100 Kilometer Instantaneous Teletransportation Talisman] she got far back when she first left her house in the Moon Empire.
After more than thirty years, Yasenia used one of them, and being a life-saving talisman created by experts from the Sky Continent, these Distancia Continent experts couldn\'t even react before Yasenia and Doriel were gone.
Everybody froze as if someone had clicked the pause button.
Yasenia turned around and smiled, knowing that the experts were looking at her even if they were far away.
"I won."
Our girls couldn\'t see what happened because Yasenia was too far away, but seeing the crumpled facial expressions on everyone\'s faces, their lips arched with glee.
However, before they could cheer, they realized that someone was missing.
At that moment, Tengliu\'s scream spread around. "FU LANG ZU, DON\'T YOU DARE!"
By Yasenia\'s side, Fu Lang Zu appeared with a wild smile that showed his fangs.
"No, you lost. Now, die. [Steel Rock Obliterating Claw]."
BOOOOOM!
