Hua Xiyu's people arrived quickly, and were delivered that afternoon. It was a group of high-level Star Spirits, most of whom were around the sixth rank, a team of twenty people.
This is a race that truly lives in the starry sky, with tight, dark blue skin, tall stature, and intricate patterns all over their bodies; fluctuations of spatial power can also be seen from time to time...
"Lord Ye Chen, greetings! I am Alger, a space mage of the Protoss race. I have come here on the orders of Lady Hua Xiyu to assist you in investigating matters related to the space nodes!" said one of the leading Protoss mages. They were not brought here by a lord, as the Protoss race itself possesses the ability to walk through the void.
"Hello! Thank you very much! Please follow me, the spatial coordinates are not here!" Ye Chen said politely. After all, they were twenty sixth-tier powerhouses, and also someone else's family members. He had to show them the respect they deserved, and at the same time, he was also expressing goodwill to the lord behind them.
After temporarily handing the place over to Jian Mengyi, Ye Chen prepared to activate the territory's teleportation function to send the Protoss to Fatty's side, but was stopped by Alger.
"There's no need to trouble Lord Ye Chen with this short distance. Territory teleportation consumes a huge amount of energy. You just need to tell me the precise coordinates and notify the administrator there. We can get there ourselves!" Alger said confidently.
Ye Chen was taken aback, realizing that they were a group of interstellar races. He realized he was showing off his skills in front of Guan Yu, so he smiled wryly and nodded, giving them the coordinates.
With the addition of a group of high-ranking Protoss, the fat man's side moved much faster. In fact, during their exchanges, Mina's spatial knowledge, which had long been at a bottleneck, increased significantly.
Meanwhile, after more than a month of practice, the beginner-level breathing technique has been verified to be effective on goblins. However, this technique is too low-level, and the effect it produces is negligible. It only makes the goblins' bodies, such as Mina's, better, but it doesn't significantly improve their strength.
This already surprised the fat man greatly, and he had even higher expectations for the subsequent advanced techniques. He kept urging Ye Chen to hurry up and open the card, and to wash his hands and face before drawing the card, and to rub against Jian Mengyi to get some good luck... Ye Chen was so angry that he wanted to curse.
However, the arrival of the Protoss has greatly helped in the exploration of the spatial node. In just one month, it has been confirmed that there is indeed a large amount of dark energy inside, which is very likely to be the source of darkness, but other special circumstances cannot be ruled out.
"Hearing your words is like hearing nothing at all!" Ye Chen thought to himself.
Of course, it's not all nonsense. If it were just dark energy, it wouldn't be a big deal. The Protoss detected the rhythm of life forms within it, which means there are a large number of dark creatures inside. So, regardless of whether it's the source of darkness or not, it would be a disaster for the star system.
While they continued to locate this spatial node and expanded their search to other star regions, Ye Chen focused all his energy on the dark origin before him.
After a month, the number of dark creatures rushing out each day has been increasing, and the number of fifth-tier dark creatures is also steadily rising. Although it is all within an acceptable range, the endless stream of dark creatures is still a bit unsettling.
Millions of dark creatures emerge every day. Even if they just stand still and let you kill them, it would take half a day, not to mention that these dark creatures will resist or even fight back.
However, this war also allowed him and Jian Mengyi's clan to grow rapidly. Warriors in New Aini City have been advancing to the fourth rank on a large scale, and the strength of the new generation of the Witch Clan and Fire Ravens is also increasing rapidly.
"At this rate, if there really is a dark god, it has probably already attracted the attention of high-level dark creatures!" Jian Mengyi said with a frown.
If the population of a small world were to rapidly flow out at a rate of millions per day for several months, and this still couldn't attract the attention of high-level dark creatures, then their extraordinary intelligence would truly be wasted.
So far, the rate of increase has remained constant. It's clearly not because the outlet is too small for these dark creatures to get out, but because someone is controlling their outflow and doesn't want anyone to notice the anomaly.
"It seems that there really is a dark god!" Ye Chen said in a deep voice, his expression more solemn than ever before.
"Don't worry, it's just a dark god. We don't need to be afraid. Zhulong was able to defeat the god ten years ago, and it will only be easier for him today!" Jian Mengyi comforted her.
"We can only pray now that this dark god isn't too strong, otherwise even Zhulong can only try to buy us some time!" Ye Chen was filled with worry. "Let's bring back all the familiars that are being used as bait. If a late-stage seventh-tier dark god really appears, we might not have time to save them!"
Jian Mengyi and Fatty only knew that he had killed a mid-stage seventh-tier dark god in the rear of the Blue Spirit Plane, and they had heard about the danger of the battle. But they had never experienced it firsthand, and they thought that with Zhulong, they would definitely be able to kill him again.
Only Ye Chen knew that it would be difficult for Zhulong to defeat a mid-stage seventh-tier demigod on his own, let alone delay him, let alone encounter a late-stage seventh-tier dark god. It would be good enough if he could preserve his reputation.
The seventh-tier path to godhood is a ladder to heaven, one step at a time. Even for the ancient races, it is difficult to truly cross this heavenly path.
Jian Mengyi didn't know what to say, so she just shook his hand and then went down to summon back a large number of her clansmen.
Tens of millions of low-ranking Families were withdrawn, leaving only those Families to defend against and fight the dark creatures. However, the two discovered that the number of dark creatures emerging had not decreased, but had increased significantly.
"Seeing the decrease in life force, the dark creatures inside are getting restless. I suddenly have some doubts about whether their leader has even reached the seventh rank. How could he not be able to control the dark creatures below!" Seeing the sudden increase in the number of dark creatures, Jian Mengyi was not worried at all, but rather felt much more relaxed.
"We still need to be on high alert; we can't rule out the possibility that it's a scheme!" Ye Chen said cautiously.
As they went back and forth, some sixth-tier creatures began to emerge from inside. Although their numbers were small and insufficient to pose a threat to the two, it was a signal that the dark god inside had indeed been alerted.
If it really exists!
