The explosion made the leader of the solar tribe be blown away. He crashed into the surrounding walls and then into the buildings before landing almost a hundred meters away.
Before he could recover from the shock his body has gone through, he was surprised again. A powerful suction force started sucking him back and in the middle of that, he managed to gain his footing and tried to resist.
When he saw what was in front of him, he was stunned in silence for a second.
There is a large or even a giant hole in space created in the spot of the spatial tunnel and everything in the surroundings is being sucked in.
There are some dead bodies that are being sucked in first and then the alive ones who are blown away just like him.
The dark elf who is clinging onto a tree started yelling like crazy and he saw the head of the tribe standing his ground against the suction force.
"Tribe Chief, Save me. My father wouldn't let you get away with this. Please save me. If I die here, you would be in war in the Dark Elf clan."
He started yelling threats, but before the chief could react, the tree was uprooted by the suction force and the dark elf was gone along with it.
The surrounding hundred meter radius is completely going through a catastrophe. The chief was the one who could stand his ground and even he felt threatened.
He noticed that the collapse of the tunnel stopped, but the space is not mending itself.
He used all his strength to defend himself and managed to slowly walk out of the range of the turbulence.
By now, even the top soil on the earth was being pulled over and only the large tight soil and rock below the top soil is intact.
He doesn't know how long it would take for the spatial hole to mend, but it wouldn't be anytime soon.
Only after he managed to completely get out of the range did he manage to think of other things and the first thing that came to his mind is the tribe.
A large portion of his tribe's property and many people from his tribe are dead.
He couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if the explosive managed to come this side completely.
He felt shivers run down his spine.
Then came another realization, the people he sent to the desolate are not coming back.
It is impossible for them come and any speculations that they might be alive and chances of their return are pure delusions.
His tribe's power dropped to one-third.
And then came other realizations. The after math of this will result in more enemies for him. First, Sam who they provoked so much that he sent such a thing towards them and second, the Dark Elf tribe who sent their young prodigy who is so adept in spatial laws and ways.
The first one was expected, but the second one is really an added bonus. He really couldn't understand, how he managed to come to this stage.
The only silver lining is that the task itself was given by their god Hou Yi and the Dark Elf tribe is also a tribe under him. In fact, he is the one who gave orders to the Dark Elf tribe to help the Solar Fragments.
So, there is still a chance to remedy the situation.
But he knew that he had a lot more to lose.
He immediately went to the main mansion of the tribe and summoned everyone of the tribe members. They didn't stay in any more residences of the tribe. He activated the defensive formations after calling them into the mansion.
The tribe members are already anxious because of the situation they were in. Some of them even saw that large spatial hole that appeared out of nowhere. They became anxious after the explosion and now that their tribe chief is asking them to hide inside, they are even more surprised.
Meanwhile, the one who caused this chaos, Sam is leisurely interrogating the leader they caught.
He is asking for the information related to the tribe's layout, location, escape measures, defenses, anything he could think of.
He knew the rocket would make some serious damage there, but he doesn't know how much damage it could make and how much of the tribe, he still has left to deal with.
After one day of interrogation, he took the beasts, the raiju elder and left desolate.
Apart from that, he took five more Astral Plane cultivators and arrived in the Solar Fragment realm.
They named this realm after themselves since they are the rulers. But now that the other people in the tribe knew that they are in trouble, there are already whispers in one day.
Sam arrived in the city with golden blonde hair. He came in with disguise and no one thought much of him. He can even mimic the aura of the Solar Fragments easily, so there is no need for him to worry and disguise too much.
When he was walking through the city though, another golden fragment who is hurrying towards the family mansion looked at him and asked.
"Why are you still here? What branch are you from?"
Sam was a bit surprised.
"Didn't the chief tell all the people below Consummate to get into the inner mansion?"
"I just came from outside of the city. I was in the forest hunting."
Sam said casually and examined the person who was questioning him.
He is a consummate level cultivator and since Sam has toned down his aura and tried to mimic the solar fragments, he thought Sam must be some low-level cultivator.
"Okay, get into the inner mansion. It is not safe here."
"But where are you going?"
"I am going out to check for people like you. We are in the middle of crisis and there are some people who are still in the forest just like you, so I have to call them.
By any chance, do you know any location of our men in the forest?"
"I don't know. I went alone and there was no one in the vicinities of my location. I am sorry I couldn't help."
"No problem, at least I don't have to search in that area."
With that the other guy left and Sam got a direct access to where everyone else was.
He entered the Solar Fragments' estate and the mansion like it was a walk in the park.
There is nothing he has to do. He went in and saw the formation network and talked to a few people without any suspicions. All he has to do is use the information he gained from the last leader without thinking much.
And if there was any problem, all he did is close his eyes bring his consciousness into the divine dimension and then into the chess board within in which the leader was currently trapped to ask the questions.
He had a good time and after he got enough of it, he vanished from the spot without a care if someone saw him or not with the dimensional drifter.
And he reappeared in the forest along where his posse is staying.
After giving them some instructions, he took off on the hoverboard.
Meanwhile, a guy suddenly disappearing in middle, out in thin air caused some more chaos within the estate and the chief was informed which caused him to panic and he started overthinking.
At this moment, he got another news.
A subordinate came running towards him and said.
"Chief, someone who claimed to be a subordinate of Sam is waiting outside of the estate. He claimed he has a message with him and is asking to meet you."
"Sam's subordinate is here? Why did he send him here?"
"We don't know. He said he would only talk to you."
"Bring him in."
A subordinate ran and came back with another man with him.
"I am a subordinate of Sam and he gave me a message.
First, you don't have to panic too much. The young man who disappeared from your estate is him. He came in here with a disguise and it didn't need much effort.
He came in already got the layout of all your formations and they are now useless."
As soon as he spoke, all of a sudden the formation disappeared. Everyone in the tribe panicked.
"This is the doing of rest of our men outside your estate. Now, before I proceed, please take a look upwards through this."
With that, he gave the telescope to him and the chief hesitated before looking up.
In the sky Sam is standing on Sky and he is carrying the large rocket he made before coming here on one hand over his head.
"That is the same explosive you were attacked by through the space tunnel. So, you make a decision based on that.
The first option is to surrender and give your family an heirloom. You would be a part of the organization. The second option is to refuse the surrender you will be bombed to death and the last option is that you can go to Hou Yi's statue, plead for his help and feel the despair before picking the options from one and two. But before you pick the third, you might want to watch this."
With that, he took out a recording crystal and gave it to the chief.
"Don't think of attacking me or escaping, any signs, he would drop that on your heads.
I hope you make a proper decision."
