CHAPTER 1697: CHAPTER 25: FIERCE BATTLE AGAINST THE FOUR STELLAR EXPERTS!

The several giant battleships approached Jia Yan, almost shouting the command for Jia Yan to surrender with the sternest words.

Of course, they could be stern!

A whole four star-level entities, originating from the mighty Stellar Academy—a team like this could confront even a middle-level stellar creature head-on, let alone Jia Yan, a mere early-stage so-called ’monster’?

Of course, they did not underestimate Jia Yan, but at this moment, there was no need to overestimate him either.

"Do you want me to surrender obediently?"

Jia Yan shook his head.

"Gentlemen, surely you yourselves have a sense of right and wrong in this matter. If you believe I’ve erred, you can present your reasoning, but to directly determine my guilt would be too domineering, wouldn’t it?"

"Jia Yan, if you want to defend yourself, come back to the Stellar Academy to explain. If you have valid reasoning, we’ll certainly give you justice!"

"That’s right, if you’re unwilling to cooperate, don’t blame us for getting physical!"

Several star-level entities coldly directed their words at Jia Yan.

They spoke nicely, but both parties understood that this was entirely about assertiveness. If Jia Yan were to truly surrender, wouldn’t it be even more dangerous to go to the Stellar Academy?

"Gentlemen, as a latecomer, I initially respected all of you, but if you are so domineering, then forgive me—I will not bow down. Show your power if you have it..."

Jia Yan shook his head and sighed.

He certainly understood the benefits of stalling, but as the other party conversed, they had already piloted their battleships to approach Jia Yan, seemingly ready to attack at any moment.

In the face of star-level strong ones, ordinary battleship attacks no longer hold much effect, for star-level entities are too fearsome. Even if giant battleships possess the power to harm stellar creatures, hitting them first is a major problem.

Therefore, battleships are rarely used in combat between star-level entities.

The battleships approached Jia Yan, and though Jia Yan understood they likely wouldn’t open fire, he cautiously backed away several hundred meters.

Amidst the starry sky, four incredibly formidable giant battleships rapidly approached an area that was pitch-black.

In front of these massive battleships was a terrifying giant beast, which seemed slightly smaller in size but was indeed a kilometer in length!

The warships quickly opened their hatches on their surfaces.

Four incomparably large creatures flew out from the hatches.

These four creatures came in colors—blue, green, black, red—all four colors were present.

Seeing these four large creatures, Jia Yan, even though their bodies emitted exceedingly large amounts of energy, was first startled by their colorful appearances.

"In the universe, colors actually have little significance, and generally, strong ones don’t exhibit so many colors. These, with even more peculiar colors, could they be..."

Jia Yan was not shocked by the other’s surface colors but rather their potential strength.

"Poison?"

He looked intently, especially at the blue, green, and red stellar creatures, becoming increasingly serious.

Stellar-level creatures generally use more conventional combat methods, like physical power or brainwave power, or spatial talents similar to Jia Yan’s.

Seeing three creatures possibly having poisonous abilities made Jia Yan’s heart become heavy, for possessing poison at a stellar level means the enemy’s toxicity could be terrifying!

As previously mentioned, no stellar-level can be taken lightly, and Jia Yan certainly did not underestimate the power of others now.

"Jia Yan, since you won’t agree to come with us, don’t blame us for using force!"

"Are all of you planning to join forces against me, an early-stage promoter? This is excessive, isn’t it?"

"Heh... I must admit, Jia Yan, your power is formidable, and to avoid accidents, we decided to join forces against you. Of course, you’re simply a captured criminal, and no one will say we’re wrong."

The conversation had reached a point where Jia Yan’s heart became heavier.

Because the opponent didn’t give Jia Yan any opportunity to stall as, after saying such words, they directly started their attack!

Among the four star-level entities, the one with a black exterior and a body length of two kilometers resembled a giant snake.

This one was the first to angrily fly towards Jia Yan’s position!

Meanwhile, several other stellar creatures also started their attack.

The green-colored stellar creature spat out an oddly colored liquid from its mouth, then darted into it with its kilometer-long body, its speed suddenly increasing.

The red stellar creature waited until the first two had started attacking, then abruptly protruded with disgusting lumps, which leaked liquid from the holes in their centers, squirming and pointing towards Jia Yan’s location.

As for the last one with a blue color, after his eyes bulged, he did not step into the battlefield in front, but instead, his tall figure trembled in the back, unleashing his Brainwave Power.

The surrounding world trembled in a frenzy, even affecting the Subspace!

"The four Stellar-level warriors have no scruples and are joining forces against me without showing any mercy. Indeed, decisive."

Jia Yan watched as this group of Stellar-level strong ones started taking action one after another, his expression suddenly serious!

He didn’t expect that the supposedly proud Stellar-level beings would cooperate without any hesitation to deal with someone like him who just entered the Stellar stage, not afraid of being ridiculed at all.

Of course, he didn’t know that, as a newly entered Stellar-level powerhouse, without any Domain, he had already killed two Stellar-level powerhouses from the Stellar Academy. At this moment, all the Stellar-level entities of the Stellar Academy were extremely wary of Jia Yan. Not attacking together would be foolish!

Besides, this wasn’t a fair battle in the first place. It was a mission to capture him, the murderer who killed two Stellar-level powerhouses from the Stellar Academy, so they weren’t worried about mockery!

As a glint flashed in Jia Yan’s eyes, that black monster which first took action had already reached him.

"Die!"

The opponent seemed to have forgotten that they were there to capture Jia Yan and used a killing move right away.

On top of his robust head, was an appendage like an arm, and as he approached, he directly punched at Jia Yan’s head!

If someone wants to play a ’hard-headed’ game against this powerhouse, they would surely die horribly.

Jia Yan certainly wouldn’t be that foolish. Seeing the opponent’s punching attack, he didn’t hesitate much and retreated backward, entering the Subspace!

"Disrupt!"

Jia Yan had just taken half a step inside but instantly felt his body tremble.

It turned out that the interior of the Subspace was completely stirred by that blue Stellar-level powerhouse, making the Subspace Jia Yan entered unstable!

However, he had no other choice at the moment and could only push forward recklessly.

"You can make my speed in Subspace slow down to this extent?!"

As Jia Yan just entered the Subspace, he suddenly felt his speed slow dramatically.

And the punch from that black monster behind him was almost about to hit the tail that hadn’t entered the Subspace. Fortunately, Jia Yan flicked his tail needle, using the hard tail needle to collide with the opponent’s fist, speeding up his entry into the Subspace, barely escaping into the interior!

"You can’t escape!"

However, Jia Yan had just entered the Subspace for not even half a second when the red creature, aiming at Jia Yan with a tumor from afar, unexpectedly shouted.

From the tumors on his body, which resembled Antiaircraft Guns, suddenly shot out lines of liquid at high speed, precisely hitting the location where Jia Yan had just stepped into the Subspace!

The space rift that was about to close did not provide any hindrance, allowing these two streams of liquid to enter and mercilessly strike at Jia Yan’s position!

"Poison?!"

At this moment, Jia Yan immediately recalled the color of the opponent’s body and dared not touch the liquid. He quickly exerted all his effort to accelerate his speed, fleeing to another part of the space.

However, during this period, the blue creature outside almost instantly unleashed its shock power, causing a sudden surge inside the Subspace!

"Not good!"

Jia Yan was startled, momentarily affected by the spacetime fluctuation, and could only watch as that liquid struck the surface of his exoskeleton.

Then, Jia Yan instantly felt a burst of intense pain from his exoskeleton!

When he glanced back, he saw a deep corrosive pit, one or two meters wide, rapidly appeared on the shell of his back!

"This... such terrifying toxicity!"

Jia Yan was almost scared out of his wits.

And the numerous creatures outside felt that within the shallow layer of Subspace, Jia Yan, struck by the two streams of poison, merely ended up with a one-meter deep trench. They were equally astonished.

Knowing that the majority of the strength of that red giant powerhouse lies in his poisonous ability, any other creature struck by his poison would be either dead or severely injured!

But Jia Yan was alright, apart from having that trench, he wasn’t severely harmed.

However, they quickly noticed that within Jia Yan’s exoskeleton, there were streaks of azure blue helping isolate the poison.

"What is that blue defense of his? A few days ago, during the battle with Electric Ghost and Xi Fei, it also appeared. Could it be a unique defensive technique of his species?"

A group of Stellar Academy strong ones never accurately judged Jia Yan because, at first glance, he seemed to be merely at the early stage of Stellar-level. Yet, his combat power could eliminate seasoned veterans long into the Stellar stage. Especially in combat, Jia Yan exhibited two or three aspects that could entirely qualify as a Clan Battle Technique. This made the judgment of a group of Stellar-level beings even more uncertain.
