Chapter 2847 - 9: Fantasies

Jia Yan felt a bit of a headache.

To go back would be dangerous, but if he didn’t go back, he’d be venturing in the Central Starfield of the Milky Way, where Domain Masters are as common as dogs, and might inevitably provoke another Domain Master, leading to certain death.

Without relying on the Insect Clan Queen to enhance his strength, he truly didn’t know what to do.

"Well, let’s see. I don’t believe it. Even if it is truly the Black sheep, would he dare to act against me in front of the Insect Clan Queen? That would be his own death sentence."

Jia Yan knew that although the Insect Clan Queen valued the Black sheep, it didn’t mean she would forgive a subordinate for undermining her authority in front of her.

Moreover, as someone most familiar with the Insect Clan Queen, the Black sheep certainly wouldn’t be that foolish.

Thus, going back wouldn’t be too dangerous, at least not openly.

As for the hidden risks...

"Hmph, whatever comes my way, I’ll confront it. Let’s see if it’s the Black sheep or not!"

Jia Yan believed his main advantages lay in his talent and advancement speed.

Though his talent wasn’t as exceptional as imagined, it was still considered good on the side of the Insect Clan Queen.

Furthermore, Jia Yan was well aware that while his talent seemed mediocre in the Central Starfield of the Milky Way, it was actually impressive compared to the top-tier geniuses, definitely excellent among the general Galaxy Level.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have evoked such hostility from the Black sheep, who was approaching the Domain Lord Level.

So Jia Yan thought that if the Black sheep planned to harm him, he would have to employ the fastest method of enhancement to increase his strength. If his true power swiftly approached the Black sheep, then there would be nothing to fear.

Perhaps even surpass him and reach the Domain Lord Level. Then he could truly roam freely, and the Black sheep wouldn’t be able to constrain him. Even the Insect Clan Queen wouldn’t be able to restrain Jia Yan anymore.

Of course, reaching the Domain Lord Level doesn’t mean the constraints from the Insect Clan Queen and the pressures inside the Central Starfield of the Milky Way would all be lifted for Jia Yan. It would actually allow him to delve into the core secrets of the Central Starfield, transcending the mere release from the restrictions on the Queen’s side.

But... Domain Lord Level?

Jia Yan felt it more realistic to just wash up and sleep early.

"I’ve reached the Middle Level of Stellar, yet it still feels so distant from the Domain Lord Level. Even though Domain Master Creatures are considered Mid-tier Galaxy Level, they are much stronger than the general Mid-tier Galaxy Level..."

Jia Yan found it somewhat amusing.

With Domain Lord Level beings still classified as Mid-tier Galaxy Level, who knows who initially defined this level of power, or how terrifying their strength must have been, to categorize entities with such disparity under one grade.

Upon reaching the Mid-tier Galaxy Level himself, Jia Yan realized the immense distance to the Domain Lord Level.

"Of course, as a current Mid-tier Galaxy Level, there’s a huge disparity in strength compared to the Early Stage of the Galaxy Level, so perhaps when I truly reach the Domain Lord Level, I might feel the same way."

From this classification system, Jia Yan pondered many things, like how Domain Lord Level beings, while also being Mid-tier Galaxy Level, are so much stronger than the general Mid-tier Galaxy Level, but what about those classified under ’High-rank’? How much more powerful would they be compared to the Domain Lord Level?

Just the thought made him shiver, and Jia Yan quickly cut off his excessive thoughts.

"The closer I get to the Central Starfield of the Milky Way, the more my imagination runs wild. Really, one shouldn’t think too much."

Jia Yan thought he had been a bit too contemplative; after all, his current strength was still just that of an organism that had just reached the Mid-tier Galaxy Level. Although this Mid-tier Galaxy Level was much stronger than the average, the distance to the Domain Lord and High-rank Galaxy Level was still extremely far, and it was unrealistic to aim too high.

Perhaps it was also because of arriving in a new environment. Back in the Orion Arm, Jia Yan rarely considered strength improvements, because no matter if he was at Early Stage, Mid-tier of the Galaxy Level, reached Domain Lord or even High-rank, the status was the same — invincible. There’s no need to think too much there.

But since arriving at the Central Starfield of the Milky Way, he’s been hunted down twice by Domain Master Creatures now, which made Jia Yan consider many ideas for enhancing his strength — having expectations naturally leads to fantasies.

"Alright, if I keep thinking, I’ll turn into someone who only dares to imagine. Better honestly focus on enhancing strength."

Jia Yan slightly contemplated, then chuckled in self-deprecation.

No matter how much he thought, or how strong he self-proclaimed, ultimately it’s up to him to enhance his strength step by step, otherwise, it’s all just imagination.

"The first step is to return to the Insect Clan Queen, but unfortunately, within this Tenth-degree Subspace, I really don’t dare venture out."

Jia Yan could roughly figure out which Domain Master Creature had ambushed him.

The one who was injured, and whose wounds seemed relatively fresh, was most likely the one previously hurt by the Insect Clan Queen.

Considering this one’s appearance, Jia Yan was worried whether another Domain Master Creature, also injured by the Insect Clan Queen, might be waiting along the way to attack him, so he dared not venture into Seventh-Degree Subspace, as injured Domain Master creatures still possess power to assault Seventh-Degree Subspace.

Within the Tenth-degree Subspace, just as Jia Yan thought, he genuinely didn’t know where the external world was at the moment.
