“This red light seems to be a little special.”

Chen Yiming didn’t see any blockade outside the plate-shaped world. Instead, a large number of dark creatures had replaced the blockade.

“With the power displayed by the red light in front of me, the black tide’s blockade on this place will only be stronger, not weaker. However, I can’t see any blockade at all.”

On second thought. “Could it be that the blockade set up by the black tide was completely destroyed by the red light?”

From the fact that the power left behind by the black tide in the dark forest world had suddenly decreased, it seemed to be true. The existence that had emitted this red light had left behind a much better battle record than him.

In reality, Chen Yiming hadn’t killed the devouring demon himself. Instead, it had been swallowed by the will of the sun into its core. There was a huge difference in level.

The fierce battle around the plate-shaped world continued.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Suddenly, a few more red lights soared into the sky and formed a fire formation, surrounding the invading dark creatures.

In an instant, the color of the starry sky changed. A large area of the starry sky could be seen with the naked eye. The void was lit up, and the flames from the stars turned into a vast fire domain.

The next moment.

“Ahhh!”

In the fire domain, the dark creatures could not even struggle for half a second. In the blink of an eye, their bodies were all burning up, and even the black smoke that rose up was turned into ash.

In the face of this indiscriminate attack, having the Undying Mark was no different from not having it.

Chen Yiming was unlucky enough to be within the range of the fire domain.

“They’re accidentally injuring their ally!”

He let out a scream as he turned into a burning man.

Even the combination of the Undying Body talent and the Giant Talent could not stop all his cells from losing their vitality.

Half a second passed, then a second. If he continued to be burned like this, all the cells and the Undying Marks inside them would be destroyed at once.

The next moment.

With a thought, the space anchor was thrown out of the fire domain. Chen Yiming also followed it out of the fire domain.

The cells in his body began to regenerate at high speeds. His charred skin fell off, and his hair grew back. His body returned to its original state.

“What!”

Chen Yiming felt the cells in his body trembling and gasped.

A second ago, he was in the fire domain. If not for his space anchor talent, his super regeneration ability would have been useless. The difference in strength was too great, and he would really have been killed.

“After so long, I was only unlucky this once.”

He comforted himself with this thought.

From the looks of it, the thousands of dark creatures at the fusion realm were only cannon fodder for investigating the plate-shaped world, and he had foolishly appeared near this world.

Soon, Chen Yiming’s face darkened.

Compared to the existence that had released the red light, his strength was a little lacking.

“According to the original plan, I will descend into the interior of the plate-shaped world in a powerful manner and secretly gather the power of the world.”

“Then, I’ll repeat the same thing and consolidate the power of the other three worlds.”

“Finally, all the forces resisting the black tide will be mobilized at the same time. I’ll rely on the space anchor to quickly support the various battlefields. If the enemy is weak, I’ll fight them. If the enemy is strong, I’ll retreat.”

“The five worlds controlled by the black tide will create a large amount of chaos and crush the black tide.”

Scratching the back of his head, he turned to the plate-shaped world. The fire domain gradually dissipated, and none of the dark creatures managed to escape. Everything gradually returned to normal.

“The plan to consolidate all the power remaining in these worlds remains unchanged, but I have to achieve a higher status first.”

“The existence that emitted the red light also needs to be treated seriously. We need to be able to sit down and have a good chat.”

Chen Yiming’s thoughts raced as he combined all the information he had gathered and analyzed his own situation.

“The main advantage I have is my space-manipulation ability and my combat strength that surpasses my level. My physique is almost unparalleled among those of the same level.”

“Then it seems quite feasible for me to claim to be a member of a high-level cultivation civilization in the universe that passed by and noticed the commotion in the starry sky.”

“In any case, the other party can’t do anything. There’s no way to verify it. Whether they think it’s true or false depends on whether my acting is good or not.”

At this thought, a smile appeared on Chen Yiming’s face.

What he could rely on the most now was actually his space-manipulation ability. This was the foundation for him to communicate on an equal footing with the existence that had released the red light.

Otherwise, even if he spoke glibly, the other party might have ill intentions. In the blink of an eye, they could restrain him first before slowly investigating him.

If his identity could not be kept a secret and remain a mystery, it would naturally not stand up to investigation.

Soon, he decided on his identity.

“The black tide is at the level where they can freely roam the universe. Then, the background I set naturally has to be at the same level. Let’s call it the Peacekeeping Alliance.”

“The alliance’s members come from the central galaxy. The goal of the organization is to stop the black tide from spreading to the entire universe and to save the worlds that have been invaded by the black tide.”

“As for me, I’m an ordinary member at the bottom of the organization.”

The outline of the entire plan was gradually built. A person who was powerful among those at the same level and had the ability to teleport was actually just an ordinary member.

The level of the Peacekeeping Alliance was immediately established.

His space-manipulation ability was another convincing point.

Rescuing the worlds that had been invaded by the black tide involved traveling across a distance of light years in outer space. Only with strong space-manipulation abilities could his identity as a member of the Peacekeeping Alliance be convincing.

…

Just as Chen Yiming was about to enter the plate-shaped world, a thought came from the ring in his hand. The female spirit took the initiative to communicate with him.

“When a female spirit takes the initiative to communicate, the problems involved are usually very serious.”

Chen Yiming was shocked, but he still felt uneasy. He sent a trace of his consciousness into the ring.

The space in the ring was still the same as before. The female spirit was restrained by two vortexes, and the entire space looked no different from before.

Until now, Chen Yiming still couldn’t tell what type of material it was made from. He had secretly used all his strength to squeeze the ring before. He was proud of his powerful body, but when facing the ring, he was as weak as an ordinary person.

“In this world, there’s a treasure tree that I once planted.”

The female spirit opened her eyes and met the gaze of Chen Yiming’s consciousness. She spoke calmly.

Chen Yiming’s heart skipped a beat. From the female spirit’s eyes, he seemed to be able to see a vast space that was like a sea of stars.

“The difference between me and the female spirit doesn’t seem to have decreased. Instead, because I’m standing higher, I can see further. My intuition tells me that the difference between us is huge.”

On second thought, “Could it be that the female spirit really came from a place similar to the central galaxy that I made up?”

This thought flashed across his mind. He could only take it one step at a time. If it did not work out, he would definitely have escaped by then.

“Treasure tree?”

Chen Yiming pretended to be surprised and his eyes lit up.

For the terrifying creatures in the plate-shaped world to gain the ability to create the red light that could turn into a fire domain and burn hundreds of thousands of dark creatures to death, it must be extremely precious.

Did the female spirit mean that she wanted him to help her take back what was originally hers?

After all, the reason why she had planted the precious tree seed was probably because she had no choice but to nurture a powerful existence to help it withstand the invasion of the black tide.

This arrangement was similar to guide the terrifying creatures in the dark forest world as a goddess to turn the core of the world into the foundation bases to set up a world-level formation to destroy war weapon and the blockade.

The female spirit’s gaze did not change at all as she continued,

“That’s right. That’s a treasure tree that has reached the level of universal laws. It must have just matured. The huge dragon that emitted the red light gained the ability by eating the fruit from the treasure tree…”

Chen Yiming frowned as he listened patiently.

He was not very interested in the fruit produced by the treasure tree. Those were all external objects that could not be compared to the system in the long term.

However, what would the dragon that emitted the red light think if he appeared as a fake member of the alliance in front of the treasure tree?

Would it believe that he was here to rescue the world that had been invaded by the black tide? Or would it think that he was looking for an excuse to steal from the treasure tree?

This… suddenly changed things.

“What should I do?”

Chen Yiming thought for a moment and threw the question back to the female spirit to see what she had to say.

“With your current ability, it’s best if you avoid the attack of the dragon that emitted the red light for the time being. You only need to touch the treasure tree with the ring in your hand to store it within the ring space.”

“It’s just that you don’t have much time left. The treasure tree has already been exposed to the black tide. Soon, it will attract the attention of an existence that you can’t fight back against at all.”

The female spirit emphasized that there was not much time left.

Hearing this, Chen Yiming wanted to leave and return to the blue planet.

It turned out that the reason why the power left behind by the black tide in the dark forest world had changed from an all-out invasion to a full-scale retreat was because of the treasure tree.

The value of the treasure tree was unquestionable, but it could still bring forth disaster. If he took it, the humans might have to face the pursuit of the black tide even after breaking out of the solar system.

This was far more harmful than beneficial to Chen Yiming.

Soon, the female spirit closed her eyes, as if she had fallen into a deep sleep again. After revealing the information about the treasure tree, she did not say anything else.

He wondered how important the treasure tree was to the other party. Did she just want Chen Yiming to give it a shot?

Not long after, Chen Yiming’s consciousness left the ring with a heavy heart.

As time passed, he still remained where he was, weighing the pros and cons. He did not enter the plate-shaped world immediately.

“With the space anchor on the spiritual figure, I can return to the blue planet with just a thought. My safety is still guaranteed, provided that I don’t get involved with the treasure tree.”

“I still have to carry out the plan to stall for time. As a member of the Peacekeeping Alliance, I should gather as many forces as possible.”

“Let’s return to the original plan and stall for as long as possible until the human spaceships are completely ready to set off.”

In the end, after a long time, Chen Yiming made his decision. He chose a random landing point, then teleported through space and entered the plate-shaped world.

…

A figure suddenly appeared outside a valley.

The valley was very large, and the mountains surrounding it were more than 10,000 meters tall. Huge trees grew in the surrounding forest.

The forest was silent. There was no commotion caused by the arrival of this stranger. The main reason was that this figure did not descend from the sky, but walked out of the void.

The slight spatial fluctuation was almost imperceptible, and peace was quickly restored.

“What!”

Chen Yiming felt his surroundings and his heart raced. He was shocked.

“The density of the substances in the world that help living creatures cultivate is at least dozens of times that of the dark forest world, and the blue planet is way inferior compared to it.”

“This density is like water. If the new generation of humans were to grow up in such an environment from a young age, even without deliberately cultivating, they can become a warrior and master their internal force before they reach adulthood.”

“The five worlds in this galaxy shouldn’t be too different from each other. Could this be the change brought about by the treasure tree?”

He had just scoffed at the treasure tree and insisted that he would not touch it, but his firm stance had been shaken.

Chen Yiming had the experience of absorbing the essence energy from the foundation base. Clearly, the treasure tree was of a higher level, so it must have accumulated more essence energy. This meant that he had more Skill Points to gain from it.

“Damn it! Could it be that the female spirit guessed that the essence energy was of great use to me and deliberately revealed part of the information about the treasure tree to me?”

Chen Yiming almost lost it .

Another reason why he was hesitant to take back the treasure tree was because, according to the female spirit, if the ring came into contact with it, the treasure tree could be transferred into the ring.

Although this ring was an item used to seal the female spirit, could Chen Yiming still take out the treasure tree after storing it inside? The female spirit hadn’t guaranteed anything.

What would happen if Chen Yiming really dared to steal back the tree?

Just as Chen Yiming was feeling uncomfortable and was in a dilemma, a troubled spiritual fluctuation spread out.

In the next moment, a shocking roar sounded from the valley.

A golden light suddenly blossomed from the valley, and a huge body leaped up and landed among the huge trees outside the valley.

This was a 10,000-meter-tall golden ape. Its fur was glowing with a golden light.

Its fur was sticking to its body like black armor, and its eyes emitted a fierce gaze. A violent and angry aura covered the sky, like the might of the heavens.

The surrounding forest was alarmed. Countless creatures scrambled to escape into the distance. For a time, the ground shook.

This was the terrifying thing about creatures at the level of the fusion realm. Every move they made had a huge impact over a large range.

“Monkey?”

Chen Yiming was jolted out of his daze and instantly fell into his role.

He cupped his fists and controlled his body to quickly float up to a height higher than the golden ape. He sized up the other party.

The golden ape had a violent nature. Now that this little fellow who had trespassed into its territory was looking at it like that, the golden ape felt that it was being severely provoked.

“Roar!”

With a furious roar, the golden ape grabbed a huge mountain beside it and leaped up, hurling it at Chen Yiming.

The mountain was more than 10,000 meters tall, and the rock that formed it was much harder than usual. It was clear that the golden ape was unbelievably strong. It was usually difficult for terrifying creatures of the same level to defeat it.

“This world is too primitive.”

Chen Yiming used his spiritual fluctuations to tell the golden ape what he wanted to say.

Then, he raised his index finger and tapped lightly on the mountain as it approached.

“Buzz!”

An invisible fluctuation spread out, and the mountain immediately shattered into dust that filled the sky. His relaxed figure appeared in midair, as if the 10,000-meter-tall mountain was just a small stone.

“Die! Die! Die!”

Seeing this, the golden ape’s rage soared to the sky. It responded to Chen Yiming with extreme anger.

It leaped up again and clenched its right fist, which suddenly became a size larger. It gathered its essence, energy, and spirit into its fist and threw a terrifying punch at Chen Yiming’s face.

“It seems that the creatures in this world are not easy to communicate with!”

Chen Yiming muttered through his spiritual fluctuations, sending his thoughts to the golden ape again.

Then, he raised his hand a second time and gently clenched his fist, freezing the golden ape in midair. The strongest single-target attack at the level of the fusion realm sank like a stone in the sea, and only a small circle of air waves was created.

“Boom!”

Chen Yiming exerted strength in his arm and smashed the golden ape down to the ground.

Countless cracks appeared on the ground, and rubble shot into the sky in all directions. Dust filled the sky, and when the creatures on the battlefield saw this, the number of them escaping into the distance increased by another level.

The commotion caused by this smash attracted the attention of at least half of the plate-shaped world. The golden ape disappeared from the surface and sank deep into the ground.

At this moment, the golden ape’s head was spinning. Cracks had appeared on the Undying Mark deep in its body. Its body had already been destroyed once, and it had to rely on the Undying Mark to recover.

At this moment, the battlefield suddenly fell silent again. Only the tremors caused by the creatures escaping could be heard.

“The golden ape was actually defeated in one move.”

“How is this possible? Could that figure also be a god?”

In the plate-shaped world, countless gazes were cast on the battlefield. They all saw the figure in midair and the golden ape being defeated in one strike as though it was just a weak creature.

From the style of the figure’s clothes and appearance, he did not seem to be a living creature from this world. At the very least, none of the creatures had seen a human before.

“Bang!”

The ground exploded again, revealing the figure of the golden ape.

However, this time, the anger on the golden ape’s face was gone. Instead, its face turned pale. This was the direct effect of the damage to the Undying Mark, and its physical condition had decreased greatly.

If it chose to continue, the Undying Mark might shatter further. At that time, it would really die.

Chen Yiming looked down from above, satisfied with his strength.

Not only did it achieve a full effect of intimidation, but it also did not really harm the lives of the living beings at the top of the world. There was still room for negotiation, and it did not form an irreconcilable grudge.

“I come from the Peacekeeping Alliance of the central galaxy. There seem to be traces of the black tide in this starry sky, so I specially traveled to this world.”

A spiritual fluctuation spread out with Chen Yiming as the center. Not only was it directed at the golden ape, but also to the large number of creatures that were secretly observing him.

At this point in the plan, everything was going smoothly. Chen Yiming felt that his acting had no flaws.
