Chapter 1732: Chapter 30: Excuses for Escape

In front of two stellar-level creatures, the circle of black that spread outward didn’t directly shatter under the pressure of their dual domains.

On the contrary, this black appeared to have some resilience; even though it was tottering on the brink, it still crazily devoured the domain force of their dual stellar-level creatures.

This scene instantly made the expressions of the two stellar-level creatures change drastically.

One must know that the ordinary domain force of a stellar level is essentially only a few, but now the domain before them was something they had never seen before.

“Hehe, Seniors, don’t you think my domain is quite decent?”

When they were still awestruck, Jia Yan inside the domain casually asked.

“Humph, assassin, it’s just a novelty domain. At the stellar level, no matter how novel a domain is, it’s useless if it’s not strong enough. Now, let me break it!”

A stellar-level creature using a golden domain, looking luxurious, suddenly snorted coldly, and then his domain force erupted violently.

It was unknown what kind of domain this creature was utilizing, but when it appeared, it even manifested some golden streams of light.

“My domain comes from years of devouring gold. The heavy metal attack contained within can instantly shatter others’ domains by overcoming gravity. Now, let your mere early-stage domain crumble beneath me.”

The stellar-level domain that suddenly exploded struck directly at Jia Yan’s domain.

Only the sound of cracking was heard, and Jia Yan’s twisted domain connected with the surrounding subspace. Under the opponent’s blow, even the subspace showed extremely astonishing distortion and fragmentation.

Yet, since it was linked with the subspace, the degree of hardness greatly increased invisibly. So much so that after the golden domain bombarded it for a while, although the black was tottering, it still showed no signs of shattering.

“What? So that’s it; it turns out it’s a domain connected to subspace. This… truly is an innovative idea. But do you think such a domain can evade our joint forces?”

Upon seeing the essence of the black domain, the two stellar-level creatures instantly had a dramatic change in expression.

However, since they were stellar-level creatures themselves, they knew well the immense variety of stellar-level creatures on this earth, and the diversity of domains was rich and complex. Jia Yan owning such a domain was by no means unique, and they wouldn’t be excessively shocked by it.

At that moment, seeing that the domain of the first stellar-level creature was ineffective, another stellar-level creature viciously aimed his domain at the black domain of Jia Yan and struck fiercely!

His domain direction was a storm with torrential rain. When it struck against Jia Yan’s domain, it even erupted with a thunderous sound.

Jia Yan felt that his domain showed signs of fracturing once again this time.

“Worthy of being two Early Stage Peak creatures. If things continue like this, no matter how my domain has been tempered to be incredibly resilient in the storm, with time, they might eventually break open.”

“However, I was never one to depend solely on domain battles, wasn’t I?”

Jia Yan smiled.

Then, when he felt the attack of the opponents, he retreated and entered into the subspace.

To be able to verify his freshly developed domain to such an extent was already a great comfort to Jia Yan.

“Hm?”

When Jia Yan retreated into the subspace, the explosion of domain power against Jia Yan’s domain made the two stellar-level creatures stop in their tracks.

In their eyes, the enemy’s domain, on the verge of shattering, suddenly disappeared.

Being stellar-level creatures, even if they hadn’t encountered a subspace talent before, they wouldn’t be so ignorant.

“This is… subspace talent. Be careful, this guy is a tough one.”

The stellar-level creature with the golden domain realized Jia Yan’s talent in less than a second, and his heart sank simultaneously.

He initially thought Jia Yan defeated the White Monkey creature probably with the support of the twisted domain, but now it seemed Jia Yan’s methods were far beyond just the domain alone. His combat capability was probably not to be underestimated either.

“This guy’s talent power is subspace talent, which is not supposed to be the case. Within our starry sky scope, including a few adjacent places, there is no creature with the mastery of subspace talent, let alone at the stellar level. I have never heard of it.”

“What? It’s actually subspace talent, isn’t that the legendary talent that’s most suitable for escaping and traveling? It seems this battle won’t be easy to proceed with…”

The user of the storm domain also lamented bitterly.

They knew even though they had prepared, dealing with the stellar early-stage creature that could kill the White Monkey wouldn’t be easy. Yet, they hadn’t expected it to be difficult to such an extent.

The possession of subspace talent meant that Jia Yan could flee if he couldn’t win. Without effective measures to stop him, they absolutely had no way to block him.

“If he didn’t have a domain, it would be easier to deal with. We could get close and use domain force to suppress space. But now that he has a domain, we approach, and he can use his domain to fend off ours. Even if he can’t hold out for long, it’s still impossible to stop him from entering subspace. How do we fight this battle?”

The two star-level beings exchanged a glance, instantly sensing the helplessness in each other’s eyes.

“Moreover, I’ve heard that creatures with spatial domains are suitable for pursuit because they move much faster in subspace than regular creatures. Unless one escapes into a battleship, there’s no escaping the pursuit.”

The two star-level beings tried again, but they still had no way to catch Jia Yan’s shadow.

The weight on their hearts grew heavier.

“It seems we won’t be able to catch him. To deal with such a creature, we need to devise a proper strategy; otherwise, there’s no way to fight.”

The golden domain star-level creature was almost resigned.

Every strong one finds creatures with subspace talent a headache. Although it’s said that in some places, there are creatures specialized in counteracting subspace talent, they don’t possess such power. Additionally, because subspace talent is rare around here, they have no effective countermeasures.

Seeing the enemy’s strength, which might be beyond any of them, yet still making them dizzy, the two star-level beings wisely fell silent.

“Assassin, come out. Your power has gained our recognition.”

The master of the stormy domain coldly addressed the surrounding space with this statement.

Yet, Jia Yan did not appear.

“Hmph, assassin, don’t you think you’re so capable? Why don’t you dare to show yourself? Don’t worry, we won’t attack you again, because we know we can’t possibly harm you.”

The golden domain holder seemed less convinced of Jia Yan’s power, speaking coldly.

Of course, as a being at the peak of stellar class junior, how could he accept that two strong ones couldn’t bring down a newly entered star-level being?

He didn’t know that Jia Yan hadn’t used his full range of techniques. Even if he did his utmost, he wasn’t certain he could take down one of the two star-level beings. Not wanting to risk exposing his power without reason, he refrained from acting, lest it wasn’t Jia Yan fleeing, but them pursuing.

Upon hearing the golden creature’s words, there was a slight distortion in the space not far from them.

Jia Yan slowly emerged from subspace.

His dark eyes glimmered with a peculiar light.

The two star-level beings thought Jia Yan was familiar with using domain power, but they didn’t realize this was his first time using it in battle.

“I still have too little time. If I’m given a few more days to thoroughly research the domain force, I might even permanently deal with these two guys…”

In Jia Yan’s gaze, strands of dangerous sharpness flickered continuously.

And this gleam was quickly noticed by the two star-level beings on the other side, but they didn’t pursue the matter.

“Assassin, there’s not much grievance between us. The White Monkey you killed was only a peripheral member of our Alliance. Now, your strength has gained recognition from the two of us. If you’re willing, we invite you to join our alliance for mutual defense. You should know, in this stellar battlefield, a single star-level being finds it difficult to develop extensively.”

The golden domain creature retracted his domain power instantly. After all, maintaining the domain is a huge energy drain for beings at stellar junior or even middle level; it can’t be sustained for long.

On the other side, the master of the stormy domain also withdrew his domain.

The former was like a greatly enlarged golden giant turtle, while the latter resembled a colossal lizard; both were immensely large.

“Join you? How do I know you won’t still hold a grudge against me? Besides, joining you means I’d have to fulfill obligations, right? Sorry, I can’t join.”

Jia Yan shook his head slightly, thinking that forming an alliance with creatures who recently tried to kill him would be utterly foolish.

“No need to rush to refuse. How about this: we give you three years. After that, once you’ve familiarized yourself with this area, you’ll probably want to join us. By then, it would be a win-win for both of us. What do you think?”

The golden giant turtle wasn’t surprised by Jia Yan’s refusal. If he were in the same position, he can’t possibly agree either, especially not after a recent battle, then suddenly agreeing to join forces—such words wouldn’t be genuine.

“Alright then, we’ll take our leave. Think it over and get back to us.”

The two star-level beings spoke lightly to Jia Yan and then turned towards their battleship, leaving without a backward glance.

Jia Yan remained still in the starry sky for a long time until the battleships of the two star-level beings had moved far away from the original place. Then he let out a cold snort.

“These two guys are quite calculating, clearly afraid I’d use my talent to pursue them. What alliance? It’s all nonsense for a getaway!”
