CHAPTER 662: CHAPTER 270: RESCUE (REQUEST FOR MONTHLY VOTES)

In the Fourth-tier Giant Elephant Star Domain.

Xu Jin’s ten fingers flicked rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, he unleashed sixteen extremely bright, crimson Spiral Burst Flame arrows.

The arrow light flickered like lightning.

The fire was Star Sky Fire.

Suddenly, sixteen warriors from the Mid to Late Period of the Fourth-tier Earth Spirit Alien Race who had appeared and attempted to surround and kill him were struck. Fifteen of them were blasted to death by Xu Jin on the spot.

Only one, an extremely robust figure clad in stone armor from the Earth Spirit Alien Race, did not die from a single arrow.

But this bulky member of the Earth Spirit Alien Race didn’t escape Xu Jin’s second arrow.

This Earth Spirit Alien Race was actually quite interesting.

Even though they were all from the Earth Spirit Clan, they practiced different Star Skills based on their body size, similar to classifying as tanks, warriors, mages, and the like.

The lone survivor, being huge in size, was somewhat like a tank.

But without the cover of his companions, he couldn’t even run away.

Although Xu Jin killed them with ease, his expression was anything but.

Since entering the Giant Stone Star Domain less than an hour ago, Xu Jin had already faced three waves of ambush.

These were not the random encounters he had experienced when entering other Star Domains.

Random encounters could range from three or five, to several hundred.

With varying strengths and weaknesses.

However, since entering the Giant Elephant Star Domain, the three waves of ambushes Xu Jin faced were very systematic.

All were Fourth-tier Alien Race warriors.

And each time, there were more of them.

The first ambush consisted of six Fourth-tier Alien Race warriors.

The second ambush consisted of ten.

And the third, a full sixteen.

This pattern of increasingly systematic ambush parties led Xu Jin to think of a possibility.

Heaven and Earth Authority!

The Earth Spirit King in this Fourth-tier Giant Elephant Star Domain had likely obtained the Heaven and Earth Authority.

At least thirty percent of the Heaven and Earth Star Will.

Which would explain everything happening now.

A precise sensing of Xu Jin’s location, then continuously directing his subordinates to encircle and annihilate.

It could even be forty percent of the Heaven and Earth Star Will.

With this in mind, Xu Jin had found the reason why Fang Ying’s team had been so disastrously defeated.

Under such precise, consecutive attacks, those with slightly lesser strength, poor positioning, or failure to find suitable terrain advantage would have been completely wiped out. Had Fang Ying’s team lacked in any aspect, they’d have already been annihilated.

It looked like it wasn’t that Fang Ying’s abilities were weak, but that the enemy was too strong.

If Xu Jin’s judgment was correct, then this Giant Elephant Star Domain might be the most difficult one he had entered so far.

Fang Ying and his men might even need rescuing.

Although Xu Jin held some resentment towards Academician Fang, the moment they were on an Alien Star Domain Battlefield, they had to put these differences aside.

One had to rescue when it was time to rescue.

But now, rescue wasn’t an option.

Searching for five people within the vast Fourth-tier Star Domain was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.

The simplest method was for Xu Jin to assault the Earth Spirit Royal City, charge in alone and slay the Earth Spirit King. Then, the crisis Fang Ying and his men faced could be mitigated.

But after some consideration, Xu Jin dismissed this tactic.

If the Earth Spirit King truly controlled thirty or even forty percent of the Heaven and Earth Authority, then he’d be almost like a Demigod within this domain.

Xu Jin wouldn’t even get close to infiltrating the Earth Spirit Royal City. Long before reaching the city, he would be surrounded by a vast army of the Earth Spirit Clan.

Xu Jin would find himself in a war of attrition against numbers.

If the Earth Spirit King, along with Fifth-tier Expert warriors of his clan, launched a surprise attack and used Heavenly Phenomenon to interfere and disrupt Xu Jin, there was a high probability they could simply kill him off.

But regardless of whether the Earth Spirit King had obtained thirty or forty percent of the Heaven and Earth Star Will, Xu Jin had to find a way to kill him.

Defeating an Earth Spirit King would definitely yield an enormous gain.

Quickly, Xu Jin decided on a new tactic.

To kill the Earth Spirit King, he must employ diversionary tactics.

First, he had to make the Earth Spirit King’s Heaven and Earth Authority at least mostly ineffective against him.

Otherwise, Xu Jin was as exposed as an ant under the gaze of a giant, every move completely visible to the Earth Spirit King.

So how could he render the Earth Spirit King’s Heaven and Earth Authority ineffective?

Having once mastered the Heaven and Earth Authority himself, Xu Jin naturally had a plan.

Only magic could counter magic.

To combat the authority granted by the Heaven and Earth Star Will, one could only use the Heaven and Earth Star Will.

The next instant, Xu Jin turned towards the territory of the Wood Elephant Clan.

On Dachen’s side, there was only basic intelligence on the Giant Elephant Star Domain, but before coming in, the Star Spirit had given Xu Jin a very simple map.

It was just a directional, rudimentary map.

The Wood Elephant Clan, the southern part of the Giant Elephant Star Domain.

Xu Jin just needed to head south.

Indeed, just as Xu Jin had anticipated, the Earth Spirit King definitely held the Heaven and Earth Authority.

Right before Xu Jin flew into the Wood Elephant Clan’s territory, he encountered the fourth ambush.

The force of this fourth assault was stronger than the previous three.

It consisted of two Fifth-tier Earth Spirits, one Early Period, one Middle Period, and twenty warriors of the Mid to Late Period Fourth-tier Earth Spirit Clan.

The power of this line-up was definitely double that of the previous attack.

Under normal circumstances, such a force would have no problem annihilating a First Layer Fourth Order Human Race elite.

But they encountered Xu Jin.

Now that Xu Jin had broken through to the Fourth Tier, cutting down Early Middle Stage of Fifth Rank Earth Spirits wasn’t too difficult.

He used just the Star Sky Fire to eradicate them along the way.

Of course, to be safe, Xu Jin also employed two Breaking Evil attacks against the two Fifth Tier Early and Middle Period Earth Spirits.

He blasted the Fifth Tier Middle Period Earth Spirit to make capturing easier.
