Chapter 42 Surprise
From slumber to awakening, it only took about 600 million Chaos Units at most.
It may not seem like much, but the total wealth of a low-ranking Marquis is only around 1000 million Mixed Yuan Units. Under normal circumstances, which Marquis would be willing to part with that?
Three days later...
"He's finally waking up." Lu Xing could sense that he was already showing a faint fluctuation of consciousness, and it would be quick after that. In just half an hour, his consciousness would be fully restored.
The hatch opened, and the Chong'e tribe's Marquis landed on the ground.
"I became a soul slave by mistake, but my master was willing to spend a lot of money to awaken me. I was originally an extremely powerful being, so it's not bad." The Marquis of Chong'e couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
This is the terrifying power of soul enslavement: absolute loyalty, without the slightest betrayal, and a fundamental affinity for Lu Xing, making him the most important person in one's life.
If Lu Xing hadn't killed him into a deep sleep with a single strike, preventing him from even self-destructing, he would never have willingly become someone else's soul slave, even in death.
"Make it smaller," Lu Xing commanded.
The Chong'e Clan belongs to the insect race. They look like large moths, with two blood-red compound eyes on their heads, wings on their backs, and countless fine white hairs all over their bodies.
"Yes, Master." The size of the Marquis of Chong'e Clan gradually shrank from eight meters to two meters, only slightly shorter than Lu Xing.
"How long have you been in this dark beehive?"
Lu Xing then asked, "If you've only been here a short time, you might not know as much as I have. What I value is real-time information."
"I have been here for nearly 3000 epochs," said the Marquis of the Chong'e Clan respectfully.
"Oh?" Lu Xing was secretly pleased. "Give me a brief account of the major events that have happened recently."
Although he was only a low-level Marquis, the two who self-destructed were high-level Marquises. The three of them together were a formidable force, and at least a low-level King wouldn't bother to fight to the death for no reason.
"Yes, Master." The Marquis of Chong'e nodded and began to recount, "For a powerful King like you, Master, the most important recent event is the discovery of a previously unexplored space in the Southeast region. This news has been circulating for the past year, since the fall of our clan's Undead King. It was told to me by my two older brothers. I was not originally qualified to know about it."
Lu Xing was startled. "A space that has never been explored before!"
The interior of the Dark Bee Hive was divided into countless small spaces, just as when he entered through the entrance, he actually entered a small space through a spatial passage.
These spaces were originally connected by spatial channels, but with the entire race facing a crisis, it was inevitable that some spatial channels would be destroyed by the battle's fluctuations.
Of course, if there were an immortal who was proficient in the laws of space within those spaces, it would be easy to reconnect, but if not...
Over time, these enclosed spaces may collide with those open spaces, and the massive impact could force open a spatial passage.
"Do you have detailed information about the space?" Lu Xing continued to ask.
Because the Dark Bee Clan's space is very diverse, ranging from hundreds of millions of kilometers to thousands of kilometers, the treasures inside also vary greatly. They may only contain some daily necessities, or they may contain extremely precious treasures.
"No." The Marquis of Chong'e shook his head. "According to the news, it is about 300 million kilometers away. The specific information has not been released by the King of the Dead, but he has indeed perished."
"Three hundred million kilometers!" Lu Xing was shocked. It was normal that the Chong'e clan members, who were only at the initial level of Marquis, could not find some information, but he knew that.
Since the opening of the Dark Bee Nest, the largest enclosed space discovered has been only 200 million kilometers long. If it is truly 300 million kilometers long, there must be a great deal of treasure inside.
"Let's go check out the situation!" Lu Xing left the World Ring.
He found the right direction and used teleportation. He was now in the northwest region, which was completely opposite to the location he had found in space.
The three brothers were also clever. Since the southeast region had attracted a large number of kings, the northwest region was naturally much safer. With two of them being marquises and one being a junior marquis, they could practically do whatever they wanted.
It's a pity that we were unlucky enough to run into Lu Xing, who happened to be entering from this direction.
The Dark Bee Nest is up to ten light-years away, while a single teleportation in one direction by a planet can reach one light-year, meaning it would take seven or eight teleportations to reach the vicinity of the Southeast Region.
"The number of people being granted titles of nobility has clearly increased, but why didn't they go in?"
The probes on the planet were capable of exploring a radius of one billion kilometers and discovered no fewer than ten kings, but without exception, all of them possessed only the initial level of aura.
"This..." Lu Xing looked at the passage shown by the probe, where a spatial vortex with a diameter of one million kilometers was tearing everything around it apart.
"Look, another human has arrived."
"Judging from his aura, he's only at the initial stage of the King-level realm. I hope he won't go straight in like that last fool. That would be wonderful!"
"Go in, hurry up and go in."
Hidden among them were the surrounding alien races, eagerly awaiting the bestowal of kingship.
"What terrifying strangulation power!" Lu Xingfei felt the vortex tens of thousands of kilometers away. "Entering as a Marquis would be certain death, and even a newly appointed King would not dare to go deep into it for a long time."
"Friend." A voice came from behind.
Lu Xing looked towards the source, where his detector had already discovered the gathering place, where four human kings and three alien kings from the Hong Alliance were gathered.
He had originally planned to go and gather some information, but he didn't expect them to arrive first.
A four-armed human flew to Lu Xing's side and continued to transmit his voice, "The strangulation power of this vortex passage is too strong. If we, who are newly appointed kings, go deep into the 300-kilometer-deep divine body, our divine bodies will be completely annihilated."
"Then how do we get in?" Lu Xing asked. He knew what these people meant; they wanted to recruit him. Having another king would increase their chances of winning.
Since she needed his help, she naturally wouldn't be too averse to answering Lu Xing's questions.
"Only those at the peak of the King-level realm, or those extremely powerful advanced King-level realms, have at least comprehended a major branch of spatial laws, so resisting this strangling force is naturally not difficult for them," the four-armed King-level realm explained.
"However, one can only enter alone. Three months ago, a peak-level King who was proficient in teleportation attempted to bring his clansmen in, but unexpectedly, they both perished."
Lu Xing nodded, thinking to himself, "Just as I guessed, once you understand teleportation, you can naturally pass through the strangulation layer. Spatial strangulation and sealing can also be used to resist strangulation, which is not difficult either."
As for the inability to teleport people... that's probably a special case, but it's not a big deal.
"Thank you, but I cannot join you," Lu Xing said, directly declining the offer.
"you……"
Before he could finish speaking, Lu Xing's figure vanished from the spot and appeared in the tens of millions of kilometers strangulation layer the next second. Once inside the passage, he would be safe.
"Teleportation! He's actually at the peak of the King-level!" The four-armed King-level expert broke out in a cold sweat; he had almost cursed just now.
"Phew, thank goodness he walked fast!"
Then he returned to his small group. They only needed to stay there, and if anyone wanted to become a king, their legacy after death would be something they would fight over.
