They won the Holy Grail War, but this turned out to be the Virtual Tree Universe.

Chapter 237: Struck by lightning, burned by fire, and finally had "dogs" set on him to bite him!

Even if the four members of Danlei were to play casually, they would still be far too overpowered by the antimatter legion.

The Doomsday Beasts are known as Star Destroyers, but they know exactly what kind of stars they can destroy and how they destroy them.

The remaining pawns were simply cannon fodder used to deplete the energy and stamina of Dan Lei and the others.

However, the prerequisite for using the phantom soldiers to surround and kill Dan Lei and his group is that there must be so many phantom soldiers that Dan Lei and his group's area-of-effect attacks cannot penetrate them at all.

Clearly, without ceasing their attack on Luofu, the Star Howl Fleet cannot spare so many men to intercept them.

The phantom soldiers who came to intercept Danlei and his group were quickly overwhelmed, and the Doomsday Beasts were torn apart by Draig and Albion, with more than a dozen heads being ripped off.

These two are now quite familiar with the Doomsday Beast. They bit its neck, tore open its abdomen with their lower limbs, and plucked out its antimatter core in one swift motion.

After all, the corpses of the Doomsday Beasts were among the few items that the Antimatter Legion could be considered as spoils of war.

If it were a regular phantom soldier, once killed, the antimatter inside its body would be annihilated, leaving no spoils whatsoever.

The destructive legion truly destroyed all the spoils; there was absolutely no benefit in fighting them.

Of course, those who fight against the antimatter legion are mostly fighting for survival, and no one is thinking of getting spoils from them.

In short, Dan Lei and his three companions made a smooth advance into Starscream, progressing much faster than expected. They quickly broke through the encirclement of the antimatter legion's illusory soldiers and reached the front of the warship fleet.

Upon arriving here, Danlei immediately retrieved Draig and Albion, then donned the White Dragon Emperor's armor and activated the Halving Barrier.

The next second, countless main and secondary cannons fired by the antimatter legion's warships rained down on the four of them.

The firepower of the antimatter warship group is something that Dan Lei and his three companions still need to respect.

When these things are concentrated, even Luofu's protective barrier can't stop them. You could easily dodge them, but instead you insist on going in a straight line and taking the hit head-on, which is just idiotic.

Anyway, with warships, if you get close enough, their main guns are basically useless.

Now, even from a distance, we can unleash firepower like a cannon hitting a mosquito.

Once we get close, we can use the main guns to bombard Dan Lei and his group of four. The ships around them will definitely be destroyed even faster.

Therefore, relying on the halving field to reduce the speed and power of all attacks entering the area by half, Dan Lei and his three companions easily broke into the fleet using a three-dimensional Z-shaped maneuver.

At this moment, Dan Lei and his three companions were almost face to face with Xing Xiao.

However, Dan Lei wasn't satisfied. Instead of destroying the surrounding warships, he led his team straight towards the upper half of Xingxiao's enormous body.

Xingxiao still keeps a certain level of attention on Danlei and the other three.

After all, Dan Lei still has the ability to injure himself. His right hand injury is still not healed. If Dan Lei were to hit him on the head, it would be quite troublesome.

Therefore, Xingxiao temporarily suspended his attack on Jingyuan and, as if swatting away mosquitoes, waved his hand to strike Danlei and the other three.

At the same time, the various ribbons hanging from the clothes seemed to come alive and rolled towards Dan Lei and the other three.

Faced with Xingxiao's attack, Danlei and the other two immediately displayed their unique abilities.

Dan Lei lent the Immortal-Trapping Sword to Jing Liu once again. A series of white lights flashed, and the ribbons that were rolling towards the four people were instantly torn apart, turning into pieces of rags.

However, Xingxiao's attack was not so easy to break. The torn ribbons were still under her control. After a slight pause, they pounced on Danlei again.

Clearly, Dan Lei was Xing Xiao's primary target, while Fei Xiao, riding on the Abundant Black Deer, was largely ignored.

Since that's the case, Dan Lei naturally cooperated with Fei Xiao, drawing the Jue Xian Sword from its sheath. Xiao Huanlong's Envoy-level Destruction Destiny Power merged with Dan Lei's own Hunting Destiny, creating an echoing interplay: the core area collapsed again.

The Immortal-Slaying Sword, combined with the power of the collapsing core, unleashed a sky full of flames, completely burning Xingxiao's silk and destroying a large section of his clothing around his waist, revealing his pure white body below.

Of course, the price was that Dan Lei was hit by Xing Xiao's waving hand and was sent flying.

Xingxiao clearly didn't expect Danlei to be hit so easily. He had just waved his hand to disperse the attack without putting any force into it.

At this moment, she realized that Danlei was probably deliberately creating distance when he was hit.

But why did he create distance after finally getting close enough to me?

Thinking about this, Xingxiao realized that his previous judgment of Feixiao might have been wrong.

Dan Lei had already run all the way here when he suddenly distanced himself, clearly wanting to avoid something.

For example, the hand-to-hand combat between the two messengers.

At the same time, Xingxiao sensed from the corner of his eye and with his mental power that the white-haired female swordsman was also increasing the distance between herself and him.

The male swordsman, on the other hand, was slashing at his own abdomen with his broken sword, seemingly completely unconcerned about his own life.

However, his attacks only left shallow scratches on his own skin, posing almost no threat.

But the next second, Xingxiao felt a deadly threat erupt from his chest.

Then, he saw a huge mouth full of sharp teeth bite down on his neck.

From a third-party perspective, as Dan Lei and Jing Liu distanced themselves from Xing Xiao, Fei Xiao leaped directly from the Abundant Black Deer, instantly soaring from his waist to his chest, and completed his fusion with Fei Huang.

With the blessing of the Hunting Power, Fei Huang instantly swelled to the same size as Xing Xiao.

At such close range, Xingxiao, whose attention was previously focused on Danlei, was naturally caught off guard and tackled to the ground by Feihuang.

Immediately afterwards, Fei Huang used the canine signature move, the Death Swing, biting Xing Xiao's neck and tossing her around like a rag doll.

However, Xingxiao was, after all, the Great Lord of Annihilation. Although she was bitten in a vital spot, she still had a way to escape.

Suddenly, cracks appeared on Xingxiao's body, like pieces of a puzzle, and then his entire body shattered into palm-sized fragments in an instant.

Xingxiao's neck, which was in Feihuang's mouth, was no exception. After it shattered into puzzle pieces, only a few pieces remained in his mouth, while the rest escaped from between his teeth and flew away into the distance.

Without hesitation, Feixiao chewed the Star Howl fragment in his mouth twice, and while gathering energy in his mouth, he used his claws to quickly tear apart the other fragments that were rapidly leaving his side and trying to reassemble in the distance.

Meanwhile, Dan Lei and his two companions were also busy.

Jingliu hadn't gone far to begin with. When he saw Xingxiao suddenly shatter, he immediately chased after the nearest fragment and slashed down with his sword.

However, the fragments of Xingxiao are very strong. Mirror Flow cannot destroy the fragments instantly like Feihuang's sharp teeth. It takes at least three full-force sword strikes to destroy one fragment, and that is when wielding the Immortal Trapping Sword.

However, whatever you question, don't question Jingliu's sword-wielding speed. With just three sword strikes, Jingliu says he doesn't even need half a second.

Wherever his figure passed, fragments of Star Howl shattered.

The speed at which the mirror stream was flying had already dropped to a level visible to the naked eye.

So, after she cleared the debris from one area, the remaining unintercepted debris had already gathered in the depths of space.

Of course, Danlei and Ren also tried to intercept.

However, Blade is unable to attack when Feixiao transforms.

The Abundant Black Deer had originally planned to give him a ride when it fled, but was refused by the blade's wave of its hand.

Blade was not afraid of death at all. He stuck his sword into Xingxiao's skirt, showing that he was going to fight Xingxiao to the end and that no one would leave until he was killed.

But Fei Huang's next move, Death Sway, still sent the blade flying.

So, faced with the fragments of Starry Sky, the average-speed Blade struggled for a while, leaving only six pieces. However, the broken Fragmented Sword in his hand was hardly a divine weapon in a battle between Commanders. After finally managing to cut off five fragments, Starry Sky was almost completely reassembled.

There was nothing he could do but hold onto the sixth fragment to prevent it from leaving, and then he went to meet up with Dan Lei so that he could use those divine swords to destroy it.

As for Dan Lei, after seeing Xing Xiao turn into fragments, he instantly restored the few bones that Xing Xiao had broken and went straight to collect the fragments.

Dan Lei's method of collecting the fragments was also very simple. Although this thing could not be stored in the Devouring Pouch, Dan Lei had not lost the magical safe that the Black Tower had previously used to store Commander-level energy for him.

One of the two original safes now contains two drops of "Aha's" tears, and it's placed in the sword case.

Another one is that after the Black Tower transferred the Envoy-level Void Energy sealed within it, Dan Lei retrieved it.

Now, Dan Lei is holding it up, stepping on the sword box to collect the fragments of Xing Xiao.

The fact that Xingxiao turned into fragments was clearly a trick of Tongxie, after all, Tongxie [Hipe] has a lot of puzzle elements.

After collecting a box full of Star Howl fragments, Dan Lei immediately closed the box, wanting to see if she would be shortchanged if these fragments remained undamaged and were never collected by Star Howl.

Danlei quickly came up with the answer.

When the Star Howl fragments reunited, although they were hit by another Flying Yellow Wind Bullet that crushed a large number of puzzle pieces, they eventually managed to put the person back together.

However, compared to the original Xingxiao, the current Xingxiao's body has many black missing parts, which are obviously caused by the fragments that were destroyed and captured by Dan Lei.

However, in the next second, most of the black gaps were filled by the newly grown body.

Clearly, the puzzle pieces that Star Howl destroyed can be repaired with energy.

However, judging from her sudden drop in energy intensity, replenishing these fragments would require a tremendous amount of energy.

As for those collected by Danlei, since they were collected in one batch, they are almost in the same location.

However, the location is a bit awkward; it's Xingxiao's left chest.

A small black hole appeared on Xingxiao's left chest, which looked very unsightly and ruined the overall aesthetic.

So, Xingxiao stared at Danlei for a long time, seemingly trying to recall his missing body.

However, the Star Howl puzzle pieces in the Wonder Safe were already sealed. Although Star Howl could sense the pieces through its resonance properties, it could not control them to break free of the seal at this moment.

Because Xingxiao kept staring at Danlei, fearing that she might suddenly attack Danlei, Feixiao directly controlled Feihuang to block Danlei.

Seeing this, Xingxiao realized that he might not be able to retrieve his fragments by force, so he unexpectedly used telepathy to ask...
"Danlei, can you give me back my left chest? I can promise to withdraw the troops immediately."

This question surprised Dan Lei, who explained that Xing Xiao had given him the face to exchange for fragments.

Just a few seconds ago, the two sides were locked in a life-or-death struggle. Could this be the legendary special skill, "The Loser's Claim to Rights"?
However, Dan Lei wasn't buying it and immediately replied disdainfully using telepathy in return.

"Xingxiao, what right do you have to take back what's in my hands? These are all my spoils of war."

Moreover, do you take me for one of those dragon masters who cooperate with you?
How credible are the promises of the Great King of Extinction?

Seeing Dan Lei's refusal, Xing Xiao said in a somewhat helpless tone.

"I see. It seems I have no choice but to give up that part."

After he finished speaking, Xingxiao's chest area suddenly returned to normal, while the Xingxiao fragments in Danlei's treasure safe and on his blade emitted a dazzling white light.

Dan Lei's first reaction was that Xing Xiao's fragments were going to explode after she abandoned them.

Thinking to himself, "This body of the Great Lord of Annihilation is too unstable after being abandoned," he quickly used magic to launch the artifact safe.

However, to Dan Lei's surprise, the fragments inside the Oddity Safe went out of light as soon as it was launched.

Xingxiao's left chest also returned to its original dark appearance.

Xingxiao casually launched an attack, destroying the safe and retrieving the fragments that Danlei had taken.

After finishing, Xingxiao said to Danlei
"Fellow members of the Immortal Ship, we will have the opportunity to meet again in the future. I look forward to our next meeting."

Oh, and you can keep the remaining fragment as a souvenir.

However, as a friendly reminder, I can sense its location at any time.

After saying that, Xingxiao's body instantly became transparent and then disappeared into the universe.

After Xingxiao disappeared, Dan Lei repeatedly scanned this space with his mental power, but found nothing.

So Dan Lei frowned and turned to Fei Huang to ask.
"Sister Feixiao, can you still sense Xingxiao's location?"

After hearing this, Fei Xiao controlled Fei Huang to shake his head and reply.

"I can't sense Xingxiao's presence anymore; she may really be gone."

Even with Fei Xiao's opinion, Dan Lei still felt it wasn't safe. He asked Wen Ren for the remaining fragment of Star Howl, and had Xiao Huanlong within him release a bit of flame, which he then injected directly into the fragment.

The next second, Xiao Huanlong gave feedback, saying...

"Master, the flames that entered the fragment have been extinguished, but they came into contact with Xingxiao's original consciousness inside."

She told me to stop having any more mental contact with her, and that I'd let it go this time since we're colleagues.

Also, she told me to tell my master that Luofu is an unfriendly place. She said that when she came here, she was struck by lightning, burned, and bitten by dogs. She won't be coming back for a while.

However, based on our recent contact, I can confirm that Xingxiao is definitely no longer in this star system.

When Xiao Huanlong said that, Dan Lei understood that Xing Xiao had not lied. She possessed the characteristic of being able to unite all thoughts in harmony.

Each fragment of her is an inseparable part of her, so she can connect with each fragment and, in turn, connect with her.

As for what she asked Xiao Huanlong to do, just ignore it.

However, Danlei decided to preserve the fragment.

Although keeping this fragment will create conditions for Xingxiao to cause trouble in the future.

Conversely, this fragment can also be used to locate Xingxiao's position in real time.

The Immortal Boat Alliance has no shortage of researchers. So what if there is a risk of exposing one's location to a fragment that can locate the Great Lord of Annihilation in real time?

For example, Luofu's location is public knowledge. As long as the Star Howl fragments are properly sealed in Luofu, what can Star Howl do if it knows that it is in Luofu?

Moreover, if Luo Fu doesn't want it, Dan Lei can give it to Black Tower.

She would definitely be very interested in the fragments of the Annihilation Lord, which possess both the properties of harmony and destruction.

Everyone here is a Commander, but Xingxiao is merely a fragment, left to be trampled upon by the Black Tower.

As for the ability of Xingxiao Tongxie, Dan Lei was not worried.

The Black Tower is capable of easily neutralizing Sunday Synchro abilities through subconscious means, so it's unlikely they'd fail on a single fragment.

　In the Starry Night Chronicles PV, "A Collection of Fables about the Stars, Part Two," Star Howl already demonstrated a similar ability to fragment. (At 3:16...)
