Chapter 275: Fusion with the Companion Spirit

When the pirate realized that he was in big trouble, he tried desperately to exonerate himself and even used benefits as a lure.

Since this person knew his own nickname, he must also know that he, who had been a space pirate for many years, was still very wealthy. As long as he could be moved by the interests, he would have a glimmer of hope.

"Nonsense, you cunning space pirates, when have I ever made enemies with you? You just coveted my property. You sent people to follow me and start scouting the area half a year ago, right? My lord, you must not be deceived by this cunning space pirate. They kill and rob and never leave anyone alive. As for the property, I am willing to compensate you. Please be sure to kill him to prevent future troubles." The light rope on Feng Yilin's body had been untied, but there was still a blood mark on his neck.

The servant beside him was wrapping gauze around him.

Feng Yilin looked at Feng Linran with great longing. He would rather lose everything he had in exchange for the lives of this group of space pirates.

If Feng Linran and his gang had not happened to be on this starship, his life and all his property would have been in danger. If he had let these star pirates escape, he would never have a peaceful life again.

"Ms. Ning..." Feng Linran ignored the frightened mineral businessman and saluted towards Ning Xuan.

Yu Mingche put his fingers to his mouth and gave Feng Linran a look. Feng Linran nodded knowingly and took all the pirates away for interrogation separately. After repeated interrogations, Feng Linran finally confirmed that the main purpose of this group of pirates hijacking the starship was Feng Yilin, not Ning Xuan or Yu Mingche.

They had been planning for half a year, repeatedly investigating various information. They originally thought that the plan was perfect, but they didn't expect that Ning Xuan would take this starship to the secret realm of psychic cultivation. This was bad luck for them.

After the interrogation, they were asked to sign and seal their names. Except for two technicians whose identities could be verified and who were indeed coerced, all the others were executed. At the next station, their bodies were handed over to the relevant departments.

A crisis was resolved in just five minutes. The captain had been killed by the pirates. Two vice-captains temporarily took over the captain's position and reported the situation to the route control command center. The identity of the hijacker: confirmed to be the "Blood Moonlight" pirate group, the leader of which is the wanted criminal of TX-041; the method of invasion: stealing passenger information and disguising as a passenger. Casualties: Captain Chen Qiming was confirmed to have died, and his body has been transferred to the B-12 freezer. Three passengers died and three security guards were seriously injured. After rescue, their vital signs are currently stable.

The current status of the starship: Power system: the warp engine is cooling down and is expected to be restarted in 2.7 hours; Defense system: the third-level shield function has been restored, and the energy reserve is 83%; Personnel status: all staff have completed information detection, and passenger information is being verified.

Subsequent disposal plan, command transfer: According to Article 47 of the "Deep Space Navigation Management Regulations", the two deputy captains signed the highest authority double verification order in parallel; safety measures: the whole ship entered the phantom navigation mode (signal camouflage has been activated)

Matters need to be coordinated with the command center, a medical frigate needs to dock, seriously injured personnel need to be treated, and the physical and mental states of the starship passengers need to be examined.

The starship staff reported the situation to the command center in accordance with the procedures and requested support. When arriving at the next station, they were originally scheduled to stop for only five minutes, but they ended up staying for 15 minutes before setting off again. There were still seven stations to go before arriving at planet S135.

The subsequent voyage was very smooth. This star field was located in an area where alien beasts frequently moved around. In order to ensure the safety of navigation, a protective barrier was installed outside this route.

So, Ning Xuan saw the star beasts swimming outside the barrier in the starship. Those star beasts looked strange and bizarre. There were fish-shaped beasts as huge as deep-sea whales, beasts with thick limbs and horns on their heads, and farther away there were transparent giant beasts like jellyfish floating, with tens of thousands of glowing tentacles under their umbrellas absorbing starlight.

Ning Xuan felt like she was watching a show of exotic animals, which was much more vivid than the video footage.

"The strange beasts roaming around this time happen to be relatively mild. The last time I took this starship, I encountered a battle between two star beasts. That time, the energy impact was so great that it almost destroyed the barrier outside. In order to provide energy support for the barrier, more than a dozen energy stones were consumed." Yu Mingche is knowledgeable and has been explaining to Ning Xuan.

During the three-day and two-night voyage, Ning Xuan and Yu Mingche were together day and night, inseparable from each other. They quickly became familiar with each other and got along harmoniously and warmly.

Although Ning Xuan's body is young, her actual age is older than Yu Mingche. Yu Mingche had an internal injury before, so Ning Xuan automatically took on the role of a doctor and cared for Yu Mingche as if he were a patient.

Yu Mingche didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Instead, he enjoyed this way of getting along.

The day before arriving at the destination, Yu Mingche began to explain to Ning Xuan the relevant precautions of the secret realm of spiritual practice.

"Master, you should have understood the basic information about the spiritual cultivation secret realm. With your gene bloodline level, generally speaking, there will be no danger. However, the level of your companion spirit is too high. When you merge with your companion spirit, you must stay conscious and not be too immersed in the companion spirit's innate skills. It is best to exit the fusion state every few hours and don't be greedy and reckless."

"But you don't have to worry too much. I will accompany you into the secret realm." Yu Mingche added, fearing that Ning Xuan would be too nervous and affect the effect of her cultivation.

Planet S135 is rated as S-level in terms of resource level. However, a planet rich in resources is not necessarily suitable for living. In fact, among the S-level planets, the most habitable one is the central planet.

Planet S135 is a planet where 90% of its surface area is occupied by ocean, and natural disasters such as hurricanes and tsunamis occur on the planet all year round.

The route station of planet S135 is near the secret realm of psychic cultivation. Ning Xuan and others got off the starship, rested for a while at the station, and then went to the secret realm of psychic cultivation together.

Yan Fuzhen and Feng Linran watched Ning Xuan and others enter the secret realm of spiritual practice, and then returned to the station. The two would go back to the previous station, Star A125, and wait for Ning Xuan and others to complete their practice before returning to the Central Star together.

The moment Ning Xuan entered the secret realm, her companion spirit, the Vermilion Bird, flew out from between her eyebrows. With a clear cry, it transformed from the form of a small red bird into the form of a Vermilion Bird with a body length of more than three meters.

The secret realm suddenly shook, and countless birds gathered from all directions and flew towards Suzaku.

Ning Xuan lowered her head to check her body, but suddenly she felt dizzy. Suddenly, the world in front of her eyes changed. She raised her hand and saw a sharp claw covered with bright feathers.
