Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 5708: Babidi’s Plan

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In his eyes, all the eight-star sects were nothing but dog sh*t.

Once Emperor Babidi’s plan succeeded, the entire Ancient Moon Spacetime would be theirs.

Even the nine-star sect, the Ancient Moon Sect, would have to crawl over to shine their shoes.

Such arrogant thoughts, one wonders how many teeth would be knocked out of anyone who came to know of them.

Daoist Qingtian was utterly hopeless.

His strength was inadequate.

His background was useless.

All he could do was await death.

Dylan played around for a bit, feeling bored, then grabbed Qingtian along with three others, and returned together to the outside of the rift.

“Why haven’t you gone in yet?!” Dylan looked at Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang’s expression remained unchanged, showing no intention of making a move, and strode in directly.

Right in front of Dylan, he swaggered in.

What did he have to fear?

Another clone had already arrived nearby. The clone’s aura was very weak, and the avatar transformed into a piece of broken stone floating in the storm.

Once this clone was done for, he would let that other clone keep an eye on this place.

Even if he fell in this time, it wouldn’t matter.

His current strength not being enough didn’t mean it wouldn’t be enough later.

As long as he followed the other party, sooner or later, he would go and raid their lair to see what they were up to.

Seeing Jian Wushuang enter straightforwardly, Dylan sneered, then carried a few people and followed suit.

After they all entered, the crack healed again, as if it had never appeared.

Shi Kingdom!

Upon receiving the plea for help from the Ancient Wood Sect, the royal family convened a small-scale meeting with calm deliberation.

They discussed the matter at hand.

Though the power of Death was a common enemy, the Shi Kingdom couldn’t afford to act recklessly towards them!

If news of such behavior spread, the reputation they had painstakingly built would crumble in an instant.

“No need to rush. Let them weaken first, and then we can crush them, which will only enhance the Shi Kingdom’s prestige!” declared an elder sitting in a high position, tapping the armrest of the throne.

There was unanimous agreement below.

“Shi Da, you shall go to the Fire Demon World and have the divine beings dispatch a few Fire Demons to accompany you. Make sure to take down the opponent!” commanded a stout, short man with a tail swaying behind him as he rose from his seat.

He was a superpower who had undergone physical transformation.

A powerhouse of the Six Tribulation realm.

Just as Shi Kingdom was arranging its forces, the Yongheng Kingdom also received a plea for help.

However, the Yongheng Kingdom didn’t just brush it off.

Instead, they swiftly gathered several superpowers of the Five Tribulation realm and headed for the Chaotic Sea of Stars.

They weren’t going to assist the strongmen of the Ancient Wood Sect but were aiming to silence them.

The Yongheng Kingdom had deep ties with Babidi.

Otherwise, Babidi wouldn’t have chosen to infiltrate the Yongheng Kingdom.

“Kill them all, leave none alive!” commanded a group of bizarre-looking extraterrestrial powerhouses of the Five Tribulation realm below.

They mobilized in full force.

In an instant, a storm gathered over the Chaotic Sea of Stars.

In the lowest level of the flying boat.

Babidi received numerous messages.

Some came from within the Ancient Wood Sect, while others originated from Shi Kingdom and the Yongheng Kingdom.

He narrowed his eyes and sighed, “After scheming for so long, it seems it’s time to execute the plan ahead of schedule!”

For him, the more powerful individuals arrived, the better.

Ideally, they would all be Universe Masters.

However, this time, among the superpowers from the three factions, only Scattered Tribulation realm powerhouses arrived.

Clearly, none were willing to take risks.

Even though the Yongheng Kingdom had a cooperative relationship with Babidi, they were hesitant to send Universe Masters.

The Ancient Wood Sect was rather careless the first time, allowing a Universe Master of the Four Tribulation realm to go.

Being a Universe Master represented infinite possibilities. Even if it meant sending a Six Tribulation realm powerhouse to their death, they had to retrieve Daoist Qingtian.

Dylan, after dumping everyone on the top floor, descended directly to the bottom through a hole at the center of the spatial boat.

“Lord Babidi!” Dylan bowed and stood aside.

“Everything’s ready, we can begin!”

Upon hearing this, Dylan began a special technique in front of a crystal ball.

At the top floor of the spatial boat, when everyone arrived, they didn’t notice anything special.

Dylan’s direct departure left them somewhat bewildered, but at least they weren’t immediately killed.

Qingtian was severely injured.

After scanning the surroundings, he felt assured they were being imprisoned.

The other Three Tribulation Universe Masters were somewhat worried.

Jian Wushuang wasn’t worried, but rather curious, looking around.

“Hey, aren’t you on their side?”

Among the group, the only female Universe Master spoke to Jian Wushuang.

Jian Wushuang ignored her.

He wished they were on the same side.

Qingtian gestured to his companion, indicating not to talk to Jian Wushuang.

They had been careless this time.

Now, no amount of talk would help; they could only wait for rescue.

But before they could relax their vigilance, the spatial surroundings began to change.

The previously cramped space turned into a star.

Above was desolate, while the sky was filled with stars.

“Be careful!” Qingtian Daoist shouted angrily.

Even Jian Wushuang was startled.

He quickly rose into the air, but found the gravity of this star to be immense, at least 10,000 times stronger than the outside world’s gravity.

As he rose, he noticed countless purple crawling creatures emerging below.

Void!

It’s the Void Crawlers.

He encountered them in the Qishen Temple before.

These creatures are the most troublesome.

He remembered what Frolasa said back then, these crawlers originate from the Starry Sky.

The Void Crawlers in the Qishen Temple originally attached themselves to his eggshell when he was born from the Starry Sky.

“How could there be such things here!” Jian Wushuang frowned.

Qingtian and the others had never encountered nor heard of such creatures.

After realizing that these crawlers weren’t powerful, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

It was mainly because the sheer density of these crawlers, coupled with their unfamiliarity, caused such a reaction.

Now that they realized they weren’t formidable, they didn’t take them seriously and easily killed off a large group.

But Jian Wushuang knew the danger these crawlers posed.

Frolasa had warned him before; once these crawlers reached a certain number, even powerhouses from the Giant God Clan would find them troublesome.

After all, they were beings from the Starry Sky, and Jian Wushuang dared not underestimate them.

He had been avoiding these crawlers without making a move.

Qingtian and the others, however, were casually slaughtering them.

After a while, the number of crawlers didn’t decrease at all, but their individual strengths kept increasing.

Moreover, Jian Wushuang noticed that these crawlers carried a certain power that could corrode the void.

The spatial stability of this place had already begun to falter.

Qingtian and the others also realized that something was amiss.

Among them, only the four Universe Masters at the Three Tribulation realm still had combat power.

Their divine powers had begun to decline.

The gravity here was already much higher than outside, and the corroded void made it impossible for these Universe Masters to manipulate space.
