Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

"Very good, it seems no one has any objections," the Ninth Prince said. "Then I will gladly accept the treasures from the Realm Within a Realm."

After saying that, the Ninth Prince led his more than 600 men and all the troops of the Black Dragon Mountain forces directly toward the blue castle in the center of the realm within a realm.

In reality, the nine laser guns he had were definitely not enough to kill all of these nearly ten thousand people.

The problem is, he doesn't need to kill everyone; he only needs to kill a few who stand out.

Unless all the people from other factions are organized together and are not afraid of their own death.

Only in this way can we break the current situation.

But people are selfish.

Those who can enter this realm within a realm are either extremely powerful or incredibly shrewd.

Are they supposed to sacrifice themselves to benefit others?

Are you kidding me?

They might consider it if it meant sacrificing others for their own benefit.

Seeing that the Ninth Prince had already walked some distance, the people from the other forces hesitated for a moment, but then gritted their teeth and followed.

They simply couldn't believe that the Ninth Prince could be so domineering.

Not allowing people to steal treasures is one thing, but does that mean they can't even let people follow behind them?

As long as you follow behind, there might be an opportunity to take advantage of the chaos later.

Each faction, with its own agenda, headed towards the castle.

Jiang Lan raised an eyebrow at the sight, then followed behind the crowd, acting as a passerby.

Others may not know what's going on, but he does.

Wanting the treasure isn't that easy.

Before long, the group arrived at a spot not far from the castle.

"stop!"

Ninth Prince Brolin raised his hand.

Behind him, the men from Black Dragon Mountain immediately stopped.

Seeing this, the other factions had no choice but to stop as well.

This is the helplessness of being outmatched by others in terms of circumstances.

The Ninth Prince stood not far from the castle gate.

He stared at the castle for a while.

The castle gates were tightly shut, covered in a layer of dust, and looked as if they hadn't been opened for a long time.

The Ninth Prince's eyes flickered.

"Sambi, go and open the castle gates."

The Ninth Prince pointed to the castle in front of him and gave an order to a bodyguard beside him.

"yes!"

A bodyguard stepped out from beside the Ninth Prince.

He had dark skin and some curly hair on his head.

As he took a step, the black alloy battle suit he was wearing changed, and a helmet appeared, enveloping his entire body.

The bodyguard wasn't stupid; he knew that the castle gates might conceal some unknown dangers.

Otherwise, given the Ninth Prince's personality, he would have opened the door himself; there would have been no way for him to do it.

The curly-haired bodyguard cautiously stepped forward and stood in front of the castle gate.

He gritted his teeth, reached out, and pressed his hand directly against the door.

Immediately afterwards, as if caught off guard, the bodyguard withdrew his hand.

The door, which was originally covered in dust, was left with a handprint after being touched.

The castle gate is exceptionally large, with a width and height of about ten meters.

Even a typical star-level martial artist might not be able to push open such a heavy door.

After mentally preparing himself for a moment, the bodyguard placed his hand on the door again.

"ha!"

The bodyguard gave a soft shout and pushed the door forcefully.

As he exerted his strength, the castle gate trembled slightly, and dust fell from it.

But at that moment, arcs of electricity, deep blue with a hint of purple, suddenly burst forth from around the castle.

"Sizzle—"

"Sizzle—"

A large amount of lightning surrounded the castle, and in the blink of an eye, it completely covered the castle.

Jiang Lan's eyes flickered.

This lightning looks similar to his domain.

There are only slight differences in color.

But no matter what, this bodyguard is definitely doomed.

The moment the lightning appeared, a wisp of smoke immediately rose from the bodyguard's combat uniform.

The lightning bolts passed directly through the castle gates and into his battle suit.

Immediately afterwards, the alloy-made battle suit fell to the ground, crooked and twisted.

As for inside, there was no sign of anyone else.

In the arena, several knowledgeable people, upon seeing this, seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, their eyes wide open.

"My God, he... he was actually vaporized by lightning?"

Jiang Lan's hair stood on end.

The power of this lightning is simply terrifying.

Upon contact, the person was instantly cleaved in two?

It's truly gone; not a single thing remains.

Is this the power that a Realm Lord can unleash?

so horrible!

No.

Jiang Lan seemed to have suddenly thought of something.

This might not necessarily be the strength of the Thunder Realm Lord.

You should know that the Lord of Thunder Realm has been dead for countless years.

Perhaps this lightning bolt was just a protective measure he hastily set up before his death.

If it's really as Jiang Lan imagines, then the Thunder Realm Lord's strength is a bit too outrageous.

The Ninth Prince was also very knowledgeable.

Upon seeing this, he was so frightened that he could barely stand, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

Fortunately, he was somewhat wary.

If he had pushed the door open himself, his body probably wouldn't even be found now.

He was filled with lingering fear.

The Ninth Prince secretly made a vow.

From now on, if there's anything he can do, he absolutely cannot do it himself if someone else can do it!

"Sizzle—"

Outside the castle, lightning continued to flash wildly.

Time passed second by second.

As time passed, the lightning over the castle showed no signs of dissipating; instead, it increased, crackling and popping incessantly.

However, no one dared to go up again.

They saw clearly what happened to that bodyguard.

Anyone who dares to go up there risking that lightning is asking for trouble.

At this moment, the castle was completely covered by lightning, and as far as the eye could see, there were no building materials, only deep blue lightning.

Upon seeing this, everyone behind them stared at the castle.

If they were unsure at first, they are now almost certain that there is treasure inside the castle!

If there's nothing there, there's no need to go to the trouble of setting up protection.

And even after all these years, the protective power remains incredibly strong.

The Ninth Prince frowned as he watched this scene.

The lightning showed no sign of dissipating. Was he just supposed to stand there dumbfounded and wait?

A woman beside him noticed that he seemed a bit off and spoke up to comfort him:

"Your Highness, it will take at least several more days for the main force outside to arrive, so there's no need to rush. We have an overwhelming numerical advantage, and with our laser guns, whatever's inside this castle will surely be yours!"

The Ninth Prince ignored the woman and continued to stare intently at the castle in front of him.

suddenly!

"Click-click-click-click—"

The door opened! (End of Chapter)
