Chapter 69
"Looks like a little kitten has come to visit."
Cang Min, who was bowing and listening to Mu Shen's instructions, looked in one direction with a look of amusement on his face.
Mu Shen's expression changed: "Master~"
Cang Min ignored his cheap disciple behind him, a slight smile playing on his lips: "This... distinguished guest, would you like to come out yourself, or would you prefer me to invite you?"
Within the vast mountainside, Cangmin's languid voice echoed.
In particular, Cang Min's undisguised Golden Core stage aura was overwhelming.
"Master~"
The once-majestic leader turned deathly pale. The only grand ceremony in several years had gone awry.
Below the platform, ordinary people with no cultivation had already been crushed to the ground, and each of them had suffered considerable internal injuries.
Li Yuncheng had not yet recovered, and the blow knocked him unconscious.
An Ruo, who was standing to the side, was already barely breathing and had lost half her life.
She forced herself to stand up and patted the man beside her.
"Hey! Hey! Wake up..."
An Ruo called out softly for a long time, but the person did not respond; it seemed that he had fainted.
She looked up slightly and saw that the surrounding square was already filled with people lying on the ground, including the black-robed men who had brought them in.
She quickly lay down on the ground again, pretending to be asleep, waiting for her chance.
While catching her breath in the air, Lingxi suddenly realized that she had been exposed so quickly.
With the full force of the Golden Core stage cultivator, Lingxi, who was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, was overwhelmed and collapsed to the ground in one round, almost losing her balance and revealing her identity.
He actually restored his cultivation to the Golden Core stage.
Fortunately, he hadn't reached the Nascent Soul stage yet, Lingxi said with a wry smile.
"oh"
Cang Min tilted his head, a red glint flashing in his eyes, and laughed, "Looks like I'll have to treat you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his sleeve, and a beam of light shot out in one direction as fast as lightning.
Mu Shen, standing beside his master, braced himself and stood behind him.
He was filled with hatred for the thief who had disrupted his plans, and ordered his master to immediately capture and torture the intruder, so that it could contribute to his master's cultivation.
Seeing his master make a move, his face was full of arrogance.
Facing the crisis head-on, Lingxi, hiding in the mountainside, cried out in her heart that something was wrong.
While resisting the oppressive force, she forcibly channeled her magic power to fly to one side.
"Bang!" The spiritual light struck the mountain, and instantly, the rocks rolled, gravel flew, and dust settled, leaving a visible hole in the spot.
Lingxi narrowly avoided it, and before she could even catch her breath, she caught a glimpse of the glowing rope flashing from the gray mist, heading straight for her.
Now that she had been exposed, Lingxi dared not stop for a moment. She immediately summoned a cloud, exerted all her strength to fly upwards, despite her exhaustion.
She cannot allow the battlefield to unfold here.
The beam of light behind her seemed to be toying with her, sometimes fast and sometimes slow, relentlessly pursuing her from behind.
The first strike failed, and the rope missed its target, causing Cang Min's smiling lips to falter. The man, who had never missed a strike in a long time, suddenly failed, and the smile in his eyes faded, replaced by a more serious expression.
interesting.
The moment the newcomer cast her spell, Cang Min saw through about 80% of her true nature. When he sensed the familiar aura emanating from the woman, the red light in his eyes intensified.
He snorted coldly and chased after them.
As soon as Cang Min left, the oppressive aura within the mountain dissipated.
An Ruo endured the pain in her body and opened her eyes to look around.
She quickly looked away after seeing a figure in black robes still standing on the high platform.
He silently prayed for the person from earlier.
Whatever you do, don't get caught.
These past few days' experiences have made An Ruo aware of the cruelty and power of another world, not to mention that all of this was caused by that adulterous couple, who ruined her life.
Thinking of those two people, An Ruo felt that the pain she was experiencing was nothing.
...
"Boss, we've captured footage of Advisor Ling, but he's moving too fast for us to track." On the high seas not far from the island, in an inconspicuous cruise ship, all the people coming and going were in plainclothes.
At this moment, in front of countless computer screens, a picture is being continuously magnified.
"Something's not right. Someone must be chasing him."
A composed middle-aged man pointed to a white figure in the screen, his expression somewhat solemn. Since the establishment of the special task force, his brain had been reset several times, and he had analyzed Cang Min many times at the conference.
However, they have limited access to higher-level samples.
The power displayed by the Spirit Advisor had already terrified them; one person was practically comparable to a nuclear weapon. Just what kind of power did this person possess that forced the Spirit Advisor to flee in such a manner?
Yun Qingzi squatted to the side, constantly watching the screen.
"Captain Yun, the Spirit Consultant, she..." Lei Qun swallowed the rest of his words, wanting to know if the Spirit Consultant had any chance of winning.
Yun Qingzi: "In the end, all I could calculate was that my luck lies with my master."
There is no process, and the process is the most agonizing.
Lei Qun could only continue to give orders to act according to the situation.
"Any news about the people who went in?"
"not yet."
On the rooftop of a high-rise hotel on Lily of the Valley, there's an observatory—a perfect spot for taking photos and making great pictures.
"Move over there a little, yes, yes, this is the spot."
A photographer pressed the shutter, and as he flipped through the previous photo, the image zoomed in, and the sudden dark shadow in the corner looked remarkably like a person.
And she was a woman.
The photographer suspected he was seeing things; how could there be a woman in the air?
Could it be that ghosts can come out in broad daylight?
The photographer shook his head at his own conjecture, but inexplicably, he kept the photo.
A customer who was posing with his hand raised was getting tired and complained, "Hey, is that enough? I can barely stand up."
"Alright, alright, let's move on to the next position."
...
“You should remember that Guiming is fixed on him.”
“If it breaks, he will lose his spiritual energy supply, and the plan will be lost by more than half.”
Is Guiming a rare treasure?
"good."
"Is there any way to preserve it?"
"Yes, as long as..."
Lingxi, who was soaring straight into the sky, thought of that method and increased her strength to fly up.
Cangmin followed closely behind.
Two streaks of light appeared in the air, one rushing forward with all its might, the other gliding forward leisurely and slowly.
When I saw that the little thing in front of me finally stopped moving.
Cang Min also stopped, standing with his hands behind his back in the void, and said, "Now you know to stop."
The two were more than a hundred meters apart, but of course, for Cang Min, the distance was not a problem.
"Are you Cang Min?" The female voice on the other end remained calm and composed, showing no sign of panic.
This surprised the man.
I know what you want!
"Oh?" The man's pupils contracted, and a red light flashed continuously.
"Su Yuan is probably lingering on somewhere, sending out a Foundation Establishment cultivator girl. What, is she coming here to die?"
Lingxi saw the black aura surrounding his body and sneered, "Su Yuan won't kill innocent people indiscriminately, and you're not afraid of being haunted by evil spirits?"
"Evil influence?"
Hahahaha~
Cang Min laughed wildly, "I'm not afraid of this thing."
Lingxi felt a sense of unease and couldn't understand why he was so audacious and reckless. Wasn't he afraid of his inner demons?
Are they not afraid of being killed?
Lingxi could even sense a sinister quality about him. Could it be that his personality had changed after doing so many bad things?
"What, what other excuses do you have?" Cang Min's expression was completely indifferent, but the look in his eyes, as if he were looking at an ant, made Ling Xi tense up.
"Since there's nothing else to say, it's my turn..."
He pointed his finger, and the surrounding clouds rose up, solidifying into thousands of sharp ice blades that rushed towards Lingxi from all directions, determined to tear her to pieces.
Lingxi was already prepared.
She leaped into the air, her hands flashing rapidly. Just as the ice blade was about to arrive, a wall of intense fire, radiating pure Yang energy, enveloped Lingxi completely. The moment the outer flames appeared, the air itself seemed to distort from the heat.
Thousands of ice blades could only get close enough to touch the flames, and even then, they couldn't reach the outer layer of the flames before instantly vaporizing.
"There, there."
"2500 meters above sea level, look there."
Lei Qun exclaimed in surprise, zooming in on the screen to get a clearer view of the other side.
"Sasa~" Suddenly, the screen was filled with static, one after another.
"Oh no, I can't see anything at all."
Damn it!
"Oh, look! Something's on fire up there!"
...
"Wow! The sun is really hot!"
Cang Min, who was getting impatient, suddenly turned his gaze forward.
Seeing the changes taking place on the field, the red light in his eyes intensified, making his face appear even more alluring.
interesting.
He was surprised several times in one day.
Cang Min was very pleased to receive this unexpected bonus. He smiled slightly and continued to intensify his offensive.
The already thin clouds in the sky suddenly gathered even more densely. Countless ice blades, gleaming with spiritual light, surged towards that faint golden light like a turbulent sea of ice.
As soon as the True Fire of the Sun was unleashed, the spiritual energy within Lingxi's dantian surged outwards wildly. Although her cultivation level was low, she possessed a powerful treasure, which was her advantage. She refused to believe that he wouldn't be tempted.
Seeing the offensive intensify, Lingxi, who was struggling to maintain her composure, slightly curled the corners of her mouth.
Then, she also channeled more spiritual energy outwards, and the true fire suddenly expanded outwards by one meter.
Cang Min across from him narrowed his eyes slightly. He was quite temperamental, but I didn't expect him to be able to hold on.
Let's see how long you can hold out.
Lingxi gritted her teeth and increased her spiritual power output. After a long period of spiritual power overload, her meridians began to ache faintly, and the spiritual power in her dantian decreased at a visible rate.
Lingxi immediately took out the Xingling Fruit to replenish her spiritual power, while noticing that the green hue in her sea of consciousness was already two-thirds complete.
Almost there, just hang in there a little longer and the passage will open.
She gritted her teeth and persevered a little longer; she would win.
"ah!"
The golden flames weakened slightly before returning to normal.
The other party sneered and continued to increase their magical power.
On the cruise ship
Lei Qun finally received some good news.
"Comrade, you've found the location. Take two teams to meet him."
"receive."
"Instructor Yun, thank you for everything."
The commotion in the sky naturally attracted the attention of many people.
"Hey, didn't they say it would be sunny today? They didn't say it would rain!" Some vendors, looking at their goods displayed in the open air, preemptively put up tarpaulins.
Some even placed their umbrellas in the most prominent positions.
On a deserted beach, pairs of figures quietly landed and headed towards their target location.
High in the sky, the winds and clouds surged, and danger lurked everywhere.
"I will hold on."
Lingxi's vision was somewhat blurred as she looked at a patch of green light in her sea of consciousness. Then, little bits of green light began to appear around Lingxi.
The specks of green gradually coalesced into a human shape.
