Chapter 442: The Creature in the Sun

"This... This is..."

Split Flame casually sent out his soul to scan the sun. But in an instant, his eyes widened in utter shock. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

He was stunned for a long moment. Then, he quickly activated the wrist device on his hand and began to investigate. A few seconds later, he stopped at a particular piece of information.

'It really is that kind of creature? How is this possible? How can such a magnificent life form exist within the tiny Solar System?'

Split Flame, a powerful Deity who had mastered the Three-Element Laws, felt as if he were suffocating. He couldn't believe what he was seeing.

He knew exactly what kind of existence that life form was.

And after the breathlessness, what Split Flame felt next was boundless ecstasy!

'An opportunity! A grand opportunity! To think that I, Split Flame, would encounter such a grand opportunity!'

Split Flame was ecstatic. He knew the level of the opportunity he had just discovered! Even an ordinary Sacred Artifact probably couldn't compare!

With this thought, Split Flame flew forward rapidly, wanting to enter the sun.

BUZZ...

However, while he was still some distance from the sun, he encountered a barrier.

A strange ripple emanated, and a thin film seemed to appear, completely blocking his body.

'What's going on?'

Sensing this, Split Flame frowned slightly. The excitement in his heart instantly faded.

'Is this an Array?'

Split Flame pondered for a moment. He clenched his right hand, and a longsword appeared in it.

WHOOSH!

He seemed to glance around, then casually swung the longsword. A beam of sword light immediately shot out, its speed reaching the absolute limit.

But it only traveled a few meters.

BUZZ...

An invisible film appeared, seemed to ripple, and the beam of sword light vanished.

'It really is an Array, and a powerful one at that!'

Split Flame's heart sank. He was a Tri-System Deity, and that had been a full-power strike. Yet, before this Array, it had no effect whatsoever and was directly devoured.

The opportunity was right in front of him, yet he couldn't obtain it. Split Flame's expression turned grim, a trace of unwillingness in his eyes.

Anyone would want to monopolize such an opportunity.

'Although I'm unwilling,' Split Flame then thought, 'it's impossible for me to get the opportunity inside the sun on my own. I can only report it. Even if I just report it, I'll still receive great merit.'

With this in mind, Split Flame kept his expression calm and quickly left the area.

After leaving, he directly tapped his wrist device.

He didn't report to Luoyu, but to the Emperor he served—Fire Cloud Emperor!

Only after finishing his report did he speak with Luoyu.

In less than a few seconds, Luoyu appeared directly, his eyes glowing with an astonishing light.

"Split Flame, is that creature really inside the sun?" Luoyu asked hurriedly.

If one listened closely, his voice held an excitement and agitation that was hard to conceal.

"Yes, Young Master Luoyu. But the sun is enveloped by an Array. I can't get in," Split Flame said.

"Based on my deduction, I estimate that even a few more Deities wouldn't be able to break the Array."

"Don't worry about that. My ancestor, Fire Cloud Emperor, just told me that he's very far away and needs two months to get here. For now, he's left everything for me to handle," Luoyu said directly.

Fire Cloud Emperor had contacted him just now, which had given him a fright. He thought Fire Cloud Emperor had found out about the dishonorable methods he used to deal with Earth.

But then he received the message from Split Flame and understood what was happening.

"I will depart immediately and bring all the Deities under Fire Cloud Emperor's command!" Luoyu said directly.

If Fire Cloud Emperor weren't so far away, he probably wouldn't even need to be mobilized; Fire Cloud Emperor would have come directly.

Hearing Luoyu's words, Split Flame said with a smile, "In that case, the chances of breaking this Array will be much higher."

Hearing this, Luoyu chuckled lightly. "It's fine even if we can't break it. If we can't, my ancestor Fire Cloud Emperor will arrive in two months. The Array will naturally be unable to stop him then. Fire Cloud Emperor is not only an Emperor Level expert, but also a powerful Array Master."

He was very confident.

Split Flame nodded. Fire Cloud Emperor was an Artifact Refiner. Although he was only an ordinary Emperor, his status was slightly higher than other ordinary Emperors in the Human Race.

After speaking, Luoyu looked at Split Flame again and asked, "What's the situation with Li Yang?"

Hearing this, Split Flame reported truthfully, "Li Yang has just returned to Earth."

Although he had left Earth, he had still arranged for his own eyes and ears on the planet.

After a moment of thought, Split Flame said, "Young Master Luoyu, Li Yang probably doesn't know about the situation here. I didn't act abnormally near the sun just now, so Li Yang shouldn't have noticed anything."

"However, once our main force arrives, Li Yang will definitely find out. He must have surveillance in the Solar System. If Li Yang shows up, what do we do? According to the regulations of our Primordial Martial Saint Realm and the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall, all non-life-bearing planets around a life-bearing planet belong to that life-bearing planet."

Earth is the only life-bearing planet in the Solar System, so all resources within the entire Solar System belong to Earth.

"Hmph, of course Li Yang doesn't know."

Hearing Split Flame's words, Luoyu sneered, "Such a grand opportunity is right here in the Solar System, yet he couldn't discover it. This just proves that this opportunity is not destined for him."

"However, Li Yang will discover the situation here eventually."

Luoyu pondered for a moment.

It would take time for their people to reach the Solar System. During this time, Li Yang might also discover the secret within the sun.

Even if he didn't, he would definitely notice once their large number of Deities appeared.

And if they couldn't break the great Array, they would have to wait for Fire Cloud Emperor to arrive.

During that waiting period, what if Li Yang arrived and tried to drive them away?

Li Yang is the master of Earth and also the master of this Solar System. If he tried to drive them away, they would have no reason to stay.

Therefore, this matter definitely required detailed planning. It would be best if they could occupy the area around the sun, making it impossible for even Li Yang to approach. That way, they could prevent any accidents.

As he thought about this, a smile touched the corners of Luoyu's mouth. He clearly had an idea.

He smiled. "Split Flame, Li Yang is a peerless genius of our Human Race. The Alien Races have always wanted to assassinate him. So, you will create a commotion in the Solar System, some activity that suggests the presence of a hidden Alien Race. Around the Milky Way Galaxy, there is a joint force formed by our Primordial Martial Saint Realm and the Human Race's Eternal Saint Hall. I will become a special envoy of that force, dispatched specifically to the Solar System to be temporarily stationed here to deal with the Alien Race matter."

By stationing himself in the Solar System under the identity of a special envoy sent to capture the Alien Race, Luoyu could openly and legitimately occupy the Solar System. Even Li Yang would have no way to drive them out.

So what if Li Yang went to find Emperor Sword Mark and the others?

They were here to deal with the Alien Race and help Li Yang. He ought to thank them.
