Chapter 731 - 731 Star Flame Race! Win-Win Cooperation! (1)
He knew his limits.
If he could defeat the Above the Great Dao with simple strength, it would be too easy.
“However… the Above the Great Dao is so powerful. In the ancient martial arts era, they were actually only second-rate experts. The ancient martial arts era… was indeed terrifying.”
Lin Bei recalled the Heavenly Emperor’s description of the ancient martial arts era and could not help but yearn.
He was fascinated by that era where experts were everywhere.
Lin Bei flew all the way and quickly arrived in front of the world barrier of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm. However, before he could cross the barrier, he was locked onto by an aura.
“Kid, don’t move.”
Behind him, a muffled voice sounded.
Lin Bei turned around and saw a figure enveloped in a black robe behind him.
“Who are you?”
Lin Bei frowned and asked.
“I should be the one asking you that. This space has always been in darkness. Who are you and… what did you just do?”
The person pulled the black robe behind him, revealing his face under the hood. It was actually a man with four eyes and red skin.
His forehead was covered in a layer of keratinized skin. In addition, there was a silver horn the length of a thumb.
His name was Monka, and he was a member of the Heavenly Mystic Realm’s nomadic Star Flame Race. He wandered around the edge of the Heavenly Mystic Realm all year round and fed on the star power that seeped into the Heavenly Mystic Realm from the outside world.
It was also because of this that most of the power that seeped into the Heavenly Mysterious Realm from the outside world was devoured and absorbed by the members of the Star Flame Race. Therefore, the effect on the Heavenly Mysterious Realm in the end was very limited.
In a sense, the habits of the Star Flame Race made them indirectly protect the Heavenly Mysterious Realm.
Originally, their Star Flame Race had been wandering around the edge of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm and lived a very comfortable life. However, a hundred eras ago, the Star Flame Race was eating at the edge of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm, but they were suddenly enveloped by darkness and lost their direction.
During this period of time, they had been searching for a way to break through the darkness.
However, after more than a hundred eras, they still found nothing.
As for their Star Flame Race, they had also suffered heavy losses because they could not absorb enough star power all year round. Until today, there were less than 3,000 people left in the entire Star Flame Race. Compared to the past, their number had decreased by more than 90%.
Originally, they had gradually given up hope of survival. However, just now, the endless darkness that had enveloped the Star Flame Race for hundreds of eras had inexplicably disappeared.
The young man in front of him clearly knew the reason.
At this moment, they were eager to know what had happened.
Lin Bei sized up the person and relayed his appearance to the Shadow of Harmony in his pocket space. Soon, he knew the identities of these people. They were the native residents of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm who fed on the power of the stars. In that case, he was relieved.
At first, when he saw the other party’s appearance, he thought that it was an alien invader and almost couldn’t help but kill him.
Now that he thought about it, it was a good thing that he was patient enough. Otherwise, he would have killed the wrong person.
According to the information given by the Shadow of Harmony, this Star Flame Race was the guardian race of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm. Without them, the world barrier of the Heavenly Mysterious Realm might have long been broken.
However… why were they here?
Wait! World Barrier!
Lin Bei focused his gaze and looked at the World Barrier not far away. The World Barrier in this space was already very thin, as if it would break at any time.
“Your Star Flame Race was trapped by the darkness previously?”
Lin Bei subconsciously thought of a possibility and hurriedly asked.
“That’s right! We’ve been trapped in the dark space for hundreds of eras. Who are you and what do you have to do with that dark space?”
The person opposite him nodded and answered Lin Bei’s question. Then, he frowned and stared at the latter.
“Don’t misunderstand. I have nothing to do with that dark space. It was created by the Lord of Darkness. Now that he’s dead, I’m here to disperse the darkness.”
Lin Bei explained patiently.
Then, he briefly explained what the Lord of Darkness had done to eliminate the misunderstanding between the two of them.
“I’m sorry. Our Star Flame Race has been trapped for too long and is a little impulsive. Please don’t mind.”
“It’s fine. I can understand. Now that the Lord of Darkness is dead, you can be free.”
As Lin Bei spoke, he looked at the thin World Barrier and asked, “But the World Barrier here is already very thin. Do you have a way to resolve it? The foreign invaders are now eying the Heavenly Mysterious Realm covetously. If they discover the weak barrier here… the consequences will probably be unimaginable.”
“Sigh, we don’t have any good ideas either. After all, more than a hundred eras have passed. The damage to the World Barrier is already irreversible. Even if we absorb the power of the stars that have infiltrated the outer realm with all our might, it will be very difficult to restore the World Barrier. Moreover… after hundreds of eras of hardship, less than ten percent of our Star Flame Race members are left. There are less than three thousand people left in the entire race. It will take at least two years to complete such a huge project.”
