Chapter 2493 - 42: The Tide Turns in the Battle!

The war in the Orion Arm was originally seen as a foregone conclusion by the surrounding starfields and many forces.

No one expected the Orion Arm to win; the disparity in power between the two sides was simply too vast.

"Now, this has become somewhat interesting. Those Galaxy Level Adults must have intended to force Jia Yan out, which is why they used an ordinary fleet to sweep into the Orion Arm. Yet, unexpectedly, this Orion Arm showed some resistance against the Sixteen Major Coalitions!"

Many external forces and powerhouses were watching the conflict between the Orion Arm and the Sixteen Major Coalitions.

Some beings of Galaxy Level were silently observing and assessing why the group of sixteen Galaxy Level had come to attack the Orion Arm where Jia Yan resided.

To them, many questions remained unanswered.

Nobody would team up to destroy another Galaxy Level being without reason.

Was it because Jia Yan undermined the prestige of other Galactic Powerhouses and they came to support others?

Ridiculous. There were no such characters among the Galaxy Level existences.

Every being that has cultivated to Galaxy Level might possess a benevolent nature, but they would never sympathize with another Galaxy Level, let alone join forces to attack the Orion Arm.

This move was too significant, so much so that many Galaxy Level beings, upon learning of the Orion Arm’s siege by the Sixteen Galaxy Level, immediately thought that Jia Yan possessed something that all sixteen of the Galaxy Level desired.

"What exactly is it?"

Even if the Galaxy Levels had already obtained news about Jia Yan’s research into the Yin-Yang Dao, and even if they understood that the Orion’s Arm Army was undergoing major transformations causing massive casualties to the Sixteen Major Coalitions,

the Galaxy Level powerhouses wouldn’t concern themselves with such minor issues.

They were all focused on when the true bodies of the Sixteen Powerhouses and Jia Yan would appear.

They were all waiting, waiting for the warring parties to eventually reveal what exactly these Galaxy Levels wanted from Jia Yan.

If that thing would benefit them too? Then, with apologies, they would come to take a share.

After all, the true Cosmic Strongmen are just a bunch of scoundrels who occupy most of the universe’s resources. Even Jia Yan, if there’s something that could help him, wouldn’t hesitate to seize it.

But what these Galaxy Levels want to clarify as ’something good’ is actually the very essence of Jia Yan as an Evolutionary Creature.

However, it was only a matter of time before they realized this.

So even if this crisis was overcome, Jia Yan might soon have to face even more formidable Galaxy Level powerhouses again.

But such matters are for future times; one must deal with soldiers as they come and water as it rises.

In the starry sky, beams of light burst forth in an instant.

One after another, the beams became extremely dazzling.

"What’s going on? Aren’t those a few of the Honored Level? Why, though I’m a dignified Semi-permanent Star Level, can’t I defeat their group of five?"

"Impossible, this... could this also be that ’Yin-Yang Dao Military Joint Method’? Wasn’t this method supposed to be used by only low-level powerhouses?"

"I... ugh."

A being at the Semi-permanent Star Level spat out a mouthful of old blood in unwilling defiance in the starry sky.

Then he directly died of rage.

Opposite this Semi-permanent Star Level being...

Five beings with turbulent auras, not even close to the Semi-permanent Star Level, but merely at the Honored Level, displayed chaotic breaths.

"Did we... kill it?"

"We really killed it?! My heavens."

The five Honored Level beings could hardly believe it themselves.

The Semi-permanent Star Level being was a target they braved immense courage to select during the large-scale battle.

As Honored Level beings, they would typically avoid provoking a Semi-permanent Star Level.

The chasm between Semi-permanent Star Level and Honored Level as well as other level differences is vast.

When they felt a fleeting urge to challenge this Semi-permanent Star Level, none of them had much confidence.

But, perhaps due to their confidence in the ’Mosquito Ancestor’s Yin-Yang Dao,’ each overcame their inner fears and joined forces to attack the Semi-permanent Star Level being in front of them.

Unexpectedly, their joint effort could indeed initially withstand the attack of a part of the Semi-permanent Star Level being.

Clearly, the Semi-permanent Star Level being also knew a bit about the ongoing major practice of Yin-Yang Dao in the Orion Arm recently.

But no matter how he thought about it, he never believed such a thing would happen to a dignified Semi-permanent Star Level like him.

For many strong creatures, the level divide, the farther one progresses, the more they cannot believe a weaker creature could kill them, as their abilities are not weak. Even if encountering a genius, they don’t believe they could leap grades and kill them.

The recently deceased Semi-permanent Star Level being thought so too, because in his eyes, the five Honored Levels in front were not even worthy of being called geniuses, and yet he died at the hands of such non-genius Honored beings, how could he accept this?

But dead is dead.

Moreover, these Honored Level beings, though lacking in talent, are legitimately Honored Level and have just used a newly acquired move — the Yin-Yang Military Joint Method.
