Chapter 258: Change of Mind
Swish...
A sword energy slashed towards Cortes fearlessly.
It was Bai Ruoxin. Seeing that Yi Chen could not hold on, he resolutely flew up and swung his sword towards Cortes, trying to share the pressure with Yi Chen.
Squeak! ✭❊
The golden hair on the little golden ball stood up, and it came out of Yi Chen's hand, following Bai Ruoxin, and rushed towards Cortes.
Ha!
Cortes did not even look at the two of them. His eyes were still focused on Yi Chen, who was sweating profusely, with veins bulging on his forehead, and even his eyes were beginning to be bloodshot.
Whether it was Bai Ruoxin's sword energy or the attack of the little golden ball, they all disappeared when they were still ten meters away from Cortes.
The bodies of the two seemed to hit an invisible wall. When they were still twenty or thirty meters away from Cortes, they could not move forward at all.
Even, they could not move at all, as if they were imprisoned by some force.
"Not bad willpower!"
Cortes' original plan was to use coercion to force Yi Chen to surrender.
Then he would test Yi Chen's talent. After confirming that it was okay, he would represent the Earth Tree Clan and sign a contract with Yi Chen to accept the human race as a vassal race.
He changed his mind after being disturbed by Bai Ruoxin and the little golden ball.
The person in front of him was most likely the strongest of the Earth Tree Clan's vassal race. Once he got the support of the Earth Tree Clan, his future achievements would definitely be far greater than this.
Even if he might not be able to match himself, with the support of the entire human race, he would not be afraid of himself.
He had offended too much, and it would be a hidden danger in the future.
The coercion then subsided.
Below, Yi Chen instantly felt that the terrifying, endless pressure suddenly disappeared.
His soul was shaking violently, and he was extremely weak.
The huge gap in strength made him have to do his best just to resist Cortes' coercion.
"These two are trying to provoke the great existence. What do you think we should do?"
Cortes's voice, full of majesty and pressure, sounded directly in Yi Chen's mind.
"Kill them, and it's better to kill me too."
Yi Chen stared at Cortes without blinking.
He was basically sure that he had won the bet.
This terrifying guy was not here to kill him.
As for Bai Ruoxin and the little golden ball.
In the eyes of the other party, they were just ants, and it was all a matter of killing or not.
Bai Ruoxin had no ability to resist. Although the little golden ball had an immortal body and might not be killed, there was also a risk of being spotted by the other party and taken away from him.
He could only take another gamble.
"Are you threatening me?"
Cortes' voice was filled with the displeasure of being provoked by an ant.
No matter how talented Yi Chen was, and what his future achievements would be after receiving the support of the Earth Tree Clan, in his eyes, at least he was no different from an ant at the moment.
"Don't dare!"
Yi Chen lowered his head.
He didn't continue to provoke.
He has never been a hot-blooded and impulsive person.
He will not disregard his own safety for a momentary anger.
He struggled to resist the pressure and never compromised, just because the longer he could hold on, the more he could prove his potential.
If the other party was not coming to kill him, there would be no disadvantages in doing so.
In order to save Bai Ruoxin and the little golden ball, he took another risk at the critical moment that determined the life and death of the two.
He was surprised to find that both Bai Ruoxin and the little golden ball had occupied a considerable position and weight in his heart.
After all, he could not be absolutely calm and rational, and let Cortes arbitrarily determine the life and death and fate of the two.
"No resistance!"
Seeing Yi Chen bow his head, Cortes was too lazy to waste time, and his perception ability rushed into Yi Chen's body.
Although he was unwilling, Yi Chen's consciousness still gave up resistance very simply and allowed the other party's perception ability to invade his body.
'Is the talent of this human genius so powerful? ’
Cortes’s perception swept through Yi Chen’s body, and his face was calm.
In his heart, he was shocked.
The information given to him by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs included the cultivation methods of the human race.
The same path of cultivation, different paths, the same destination.
In the final analysis, it is nothing more than converting the energy between heaven and earth into one’s own energy.
Comprehension determines the upper limit. Physical fitness determines the speed of improvement.
After understanding the cultivation methods of the human race, Cortes could easily judge the level of Yi Chen’s cultivation talent from the amount of impurities in his meridians.
As for comprehension, although he could not find it with his perception ability, he needed to use special treasures.
But comprehension and physical fitness are often born together and are not much different.
According to his inference, Yi Chen’s talent upper limit is not much different from his.
This is completely unreasonable.
At the level of this galaxy group, it is impossible to give birth to a life with such a high talent upper limit.
Unless, he has a higher level of great luck.
This kind of existence that is still in a small ecosystem and has the luck of the big ecosystem is also extremely rare in the entire super galaxy cluster.
Because this kind of existence is destined to break out of the small ecosystem and enter a higher level.
"Your talent is not bad!"
Cortes's cold attitude eased a little.
The arrogance deep in his eyes was completely restrained.
Still at a low level, the upper limit of talent is not much weaker than him. It is almost predictable that the future achievements will only be higher than his.
Because luck can be improved.
Of course, it can also decline.
This kind of existence, which is still in a small ecosystem, has obtained the luck of the big ecosystem. As long as it does not commit suicide, its luck will most likely rise.
And the improvement of luck means continuous opportunities, and the probability of obtaining resources that can increase the upper limit of talent is extremely high.
In the eyes of Kotes, Yi Chen is still as strong as an ant, but he is an ant with a higher upper limit than himself.
If you can't crush him to death with one finger, it is better not to offend him.
In order to avoid being infected with bad karma, it will do more harm than good to your future.
Even if this ant has a very strong luck now, it will directly have a negative impact on your luck if you suppress it rashly.
Yi Chen said nothing, vaguely understanding the other party's intention. While quickly calculating the pros and cons, he waited for the other party to make it clear.
"I believe you should have guessed a little about my intention."
Kotes, who didn't want to waste time, didn't get to the point immediately.
When he came, his plan was to show his coercion, let Yi Chen roughly understand the strength of the Earth Tree Clan, and then after testing Yi Chen's talent and finding out that it was in line with expectations, he would directly find Yi Chen to sign a contract of loyalty to the Earth Tree Clan.
Simple and straightforward, saving time and effort.
He believed that even if Yi Chen had a million reasons not to be controlled by others, he would have to sign the contract.
Now, he has changed his mind.
If Yi Chen's luck is really as strong as he inferred, he plans to take a gentler approach.
Force Yi Chen to sign a contract of loyalty on behalf of the human race. In the future, when Yi Chen gets the support of the Earth Tree Clan, he will know that the Earth Tree Clan believes in the law of cause and effect and will never treat their loyal brothers badly, so he will naturally not be dissatisfied with the Earth Tree Clan.
But his dissatisfaction with him will not subside.
The best way is to use softer means and attitudes to make Yi Chen willingly, or even happily, sign a contract of loyalty to the Earth Tree Clan.
To do this, he may have to waste some time, and may even have to take out some treasures to give to Yi Chen.
But the relationship between the two sides will definitely be much closer.
Befriending someone with strong luck, gaining the other party's favor and gratitude, will also improve your own luck.
In the future, there will be even more benefits.
It can be said that small cost, big return.
Of course, everything is based on whether Yi Chen's luck is really as strong as he inferred.
He plans to observe Yi Chen's luck before making a decision.
