Chapter 209 Tongchenzhou (2)
"I heard someone was wondering why so many of us were locked up here. They didn't seem to know what was going on. Maybe we can talk about it."
"Although we have the advantage, it would be better for us if we could turn the enemy into our friends. It would reduce casualties and we could also get information from them."
"Fu Xuan, you can convince us enemies to become your allies, so why don't you convince them? We will suppress the attacks nearby, and you can take the opportunity to climb up the jar and occupy the commanding heights."
In the chaos, Fu Xuan was lifted to a high place by his companions and had to speak under the hail of bullets.
Fortunately, the enemies were not difficult to convince. Except for a few who were still concerned about their slain companions, most of the fighting stopped.
And just when Fu Xuan was asking how to leave this floor and the fighters had not yet responded, a rhythmic ticking sound rang out, joining the conversation.
"Tick-tock"
People with sharp ears all looked towards the direction where the sound came from, but each looked in a different direction. Fu Xuan, who was standing on a high place, could tell from the directions everyone was looking that the sound was coming from everywhere.
"What?"
In today's situation, most people are not in the mood to talk about other things and just want to find the source of the sound directly.
"It's a bomb!" Someone saw the purpose of that thing at a glance.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the fighters.
Immediately, a soldier who was close by came forward to check. After just one glance, he quickly said in a loud and clear voice: "This is an indestructible and immovable bomb. It is powerful enough to blow down this floor.
"If we want to stop the countdown, we can only find the core of the female soul and threaten her to shut it down. However, her core is located on the highest floor. We don't have the authority or time to enter."
Bombs were found in various locations, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment as the countdown drew to a close.
The barrier of the blockade layer was very strong. They couldn't get out and could only stay here with the bombs.
Fu Xuan jumped off the nutrient tank on the commanding height and reached the bomb in a few steps. He looked carefully and found that the countdown had reached "38".
She said: "This is so sudden. Even if they found out that we have made peace, they wouldn't go crazy like this."
One fighter said: "I agree, this doesn't seem like the same style as the Eternal."
One player muttered: "What kind of style? Kidnapping people?"
Now is not the time to discuss the style of the eternal world.
"Can people survive outside the spacecraft?" Someone wanted to leave the spacecraft.
The fighter said, "No, the spaceship is located in the Ten Thousand Worlds Rift. Once you get out, you will be torn to pieces, unless your physical strength is close to that of a god. Besides, it is unlikely that we can destroy the spaceship in a few tens of seconds."
Some fighters tried to talk to the female soul, but she ignored them.
Bai Jiuyue in the crowd rolled her eyes, as if thinking about something, but she did not express her thoughts aloud and remained silent cautiously.
The countdown has reached "16" seconds.
The atmosphere is heavy, anxiety is brewing, and people's hearts are surging.
Fu Xuan glanced at Bai Jiuyue, raised his voice, and used his spiritual power to make his voice reach every corner of this floor, "Don't worry, everyone. I promise, we will never die."
“Where do you get your confidence from?”
"How can you guarantee that?"
Fu Xuan said: "My sister must be at the top now. If this explosion would endanger our lives, then it would definitely not happen. My sister would stop it.
"If this explosion happens, it means that it will not endanger our lives. I hope everyone can stay rational and not run around, causing unnecessary casualties."
Fu Xuan looked calm and composed, her voice was steady. In addition, she was the first one to provide nutrient tanks to help other players regain their freedom. She was also the first one to ask the combatants to lay down their weapons. She was considered a familiar face in the blockade layer and had some prestige.
The players listened to her.
Moreover, it is indeed unlikely to survive if you run out of the spacecraft.
Most of the fighters still had trust in Wanshi Tongchen and thought that the spaceship could not have exploded like this, so most of them maintained basic rationality.
"Let's gather together and set up a barrier." As he spoke, Fu Xuan had already set up a barrier, protecting the people nearby in the center. "Bombs may not be able to blow up the barrier."
Bai Jiuyue sent a message to Fu Xuan: "How can you guarantee that? It's not necessarily that there are bombs on our floor alone. If there are bombs on the entire spacecraft, we will definitely die."
"I've guaranteed it with my life, but it's not enough. The worst that can happen is that we all die together." On the surface, he asked the players to act in an orderly manner and not waste time. In private, Fu Xuan's tone was casual.
Fu Xuan said: "I just need to ensure that Wanshi Tongchen doesn't get too much emotional energy and the situation doesn't get out of hand.
"But you have remained silent. Do you know something? What are you thinking about?"
Bai Jiuyue did not reply.
Fu Xuan snorted coldly and said, "None of you stepped forward, and I became the target of public criticism for no reason. I clearly saw the Out-of-Body Stage and the Spiritual Transformation Stage at the beginning, but in the blink of an eye they disappeared. If we had their help, it would be much easier for us."
Bai Jiyue said: "They went out at the beginning."
"I understand." Fu Xuan said sarcastically, "They are going to do something important, leaving us here to 'deal with' the other players."
The voice transmission was very efficient, but even so, the countdown still reached "0" during the conversation.
For a moment, the air seemed to become extremely quiet.
The fire was everywhere.
——
A bomb was also found at Ying Feiqiong's place, but the situation there was completely different from that in the blockade layer.
After discovering the bomb, the fighters who had made peace with Ying Feiqiong and other players were shocked and quickly discussed countermeasures.
Some people in Team Lei have close relationships with the teachers and know how to get to the upper level quickly - this is a small secret passage that the teachers specially made in order not to be late for class.
Since Ying Feiqiong had the highest cultivation level, the fastest speed, and had learned the "Shadow Footwork" which allowed her to jump in the shadows and overcome the top-level restrictions, the mission of going to the female soul center and threatening the other party to stop the explosion was given to her.
Team Lei's mage helped Ying Feiqiong enter the teleportation array and jump to the layer closest to the top layer.
Then, Ying Feiqiong jumped through the shadows and entered the top level.
At this time, the time has reached "20".
There were no doors in the corridor, and spiritual consciousness could not pass through the walls, so there was no way to identify which room Ji Weihang was in, or where the center of the female soul was.
Ying Feiqiong pulled out the spine whip from his body and swung it hard towards the wall next to him that blocked his spiritual sense. The curved blade at the top of the bone whip stretched out and hit the wall with a bang.
But the wall was undamaged.
The reaction force was transmitted to his arm, and Ying Feiqiong frowned slightly, sure that he could not break the wall easily.
There wouldn't be enough time to search room by room.
The countdown has reached "17".
Ying Feiqiong decided to trust her inspiration and walked towards the center of the corridor.
When she stops at a certain place, the time goes to "10".
Ying Feiqiong looked at the wall next to her, raised her bone whip, and the concentrated spiritual power made the whip glow faintly. She used all her strength and swung the long whip -
There was a loud bang, and the entire spacecraft seemed to shake.
Ying Feiqiong raised her eyebrows and looked at the cracks that appeared on the wall.
She knew that the power of her whip was not that great.
But she knew where Ji Weihang was.
Ying Feiqiong jumped into the room inside.
There was a complete gap in the wall on the left side of the room, with cracks spreading out in a spider web-like pattern from the gap as the center.
Ji Weihang stood in front of the crack and looked inside the room.
As soon as Ying Feiqiong came in, her eyes fell on the nutrient tanks placed in the space, and her expression froze slightly.
Boom boom boom. Boom boom boom.
She felt her heart singing inside her chest.
However, the "tick-tick" sound could be heard very clearly from where her eyes were.
Time has passed quietly.
The all-consuming flames made Ying Feiqiong's heart skip a beat.
Then, the flames engulfed her as well.
——
Ying Feiqiong suddenly opened her eyes and found herself still in the familiar nutrient tank.
Surrounding it are nearly a million nutrient tanks neatly stacked in layers, with no top or end in sight.
Dream?
The pounding of her heart proved the truth of her memory.
Ying Feiqiong was sure that what he saw was indeed Yun Tongmin.
She jumped out of the nutrient tank through the shadows, not very skillfully. Although she was familiar with it in her dreams, she still seemed unskilled in using it in reality.
There were acquaintances around Ying Feiqiong's nutrient tank. Just like before, she casually broke the nutrient tank next to it that contained Bai Zhiyu.
Blue liquid leaked from the hole. Bai Zhiyu coughed repeatedly. Seeing Ying Feiqiong was about to leave, he hurriedly asked, "Did you see anything when you went outside?"
I almost forgot that Bai Zhiyu also cared about Tongmin's master, and she killed Tongmin's junior sister.
Ying Feiqiong said, "They are on the top floor, and Ji Weihang is also there."
Bai Zhiyu broke the nutrient tank along the gap, crawled out, and said, "Take me with you."
Seeing Ying Feiqiong frowning and about to refuse, Bai Zhiyu said: "We have been together for so long, don't you know me yet? I won't hold you back, it would be dangerous for you to be alone."
Finally, Ying Feiqiong sighed and said, "Okay. But I can't guarantee that I can take you out. The barrier of the blockade layer is a bit complicated."
"You can definitely do it." Bai Zhiyu, who was checking his body, happily took out a sword from his dantian and said, "That's good, my natal sword is still there."
She turned her head to look at the densely packed nutrient tanks and said, "Wait for me for a moment, just a moment."
Ying Feiqiong crossed his arms, stepped back slightly, and said in dismay, "You still said you didn't hold me back."
If it were me, I wouldn't care about so many people.
Bai Zhiyu knew that she was just being ruthless, and said, "There is strength in numbers. We don't know what the situation is outside yet, so it's better to have more people.
"When faced with the explosion just now, most of them were very calm and did not act impulsively, which means they are worthy of cooperation and help."
Ying Feiqiong said, "Whatever, hurry up."
Spiritual energy condensed on the sword body to form a sword shadow, which instantly expanded and grew taller, from the ceiling to the ground, and was more than ten meters wide on both sides.
All players saw the sword shadow.
Including Fu Xuan who just ran out of the nutrient tank using shadow steps.
Her eyes lit up and she ran towards the sword shadow.
Bai Zhiyu muttered nervously: "It's better to hurt things than people. It's better to hurt people."
She suddenly swung out two sword energies, one horizontal and one vertical, forward. The huge and sharp sword energy instantly cut through countless nutrient tanks and the people inside them.
The players in the corners who were not hit opened their eyes wide and looked at the players who were hit curiously.
After a moment, a crack appeared on the jar and blue liquid oozed out from the gap.
The unharmed players pushed open the cut upper part of the nutrient tank, and the sound of the tank falling to the ground came one after another, and blue liquid poured down like a waterfall.
Seeing that the players were unharmed, Bai Zhiyu breathed a sigh of relief, proudly put away his sword, turned to Ying Feiqiong and said, "Let's go, the rest is up to them."
Ying Feiqiong led her towards the exit and said casually, "Haven't we used it many times? Why are you still so nervous?"
"Don't you feel a little strange returning to the body?" Bai Zhiyu said, "Besides, there are some demons among the players who are within the attack range. I am worried about hurting them."
Ying Feiqiong thought of a certain demon prince and said, "Ji Chengyuan will probably be scared to death."
Ji Chengyuan was indeed frightened, but she thought "scared to death" was an exaggeration.
Even if the Wanjian Sect's swordsmanship has killed millions of demons, even if Wanqi Shuang used this sword energy to inflict heavy damage on the Demon Emperor Ji Yuan... she is not afraid at all!
Jumping out of the nutrient tank, Ji Chengyuan proudly shook off the liquid on his body.
The sword energy could even hurt the Demon Emperor, but she was unharmed!
I can brag about it to my aunt when I get back.
Ji Chengyuan looked at the jar next to him. Since the range of the sword energy was limited, many players had not come out of the nutrient tank.
The nutrient tank cannot be broken from the inside, and can only be broken by players who come out. Currently, a small number of players who come out with special abilities are destroying the nutrient tanks of other players nearby.
Ji Chengyuan thought for two seconds and transformed into his original form.
The huge monster swelled up and suddenly raised its claws—
"Ji Chengyuan, wait a moment!"
A shout stopped Ji Chengyuan's actions, and she raised her head to look at the person who made the sound.
"It's you, Xiaoxi's sister." Ji Chengyuan looked at Fu Xuan who was running over and said, "What are you doing?"
Fu Xuan was originally going to look for the person who emitted the sword energy, but a huge shadow covered her. She turned around and saw Ji Chengyuan was about to swing his claws, so she immediately gave up her original plan and ran over.
Fu Xuan explained: "Even if you push the jars over, they won't break. If you push too hard, you might hurt the people inside."
Moreover, the cans were rolling all over the floor, making it inconvenient for others to move around.
But it is better not to say such words that imply accusations.
Ji Chengyuan snorted coldly, shrank his body, and said, "What should we do then?"
Fu Xuan sighed and glanced in the direction where Ying Feiqiong left, as if she saw that the opportunity to find Sister Weihang was slipping away from her.
"There is an order to the arrangement. Let's first find the people who will help us, such as Yun Ruisi and Bai Jiyue."
Ji Chengyuan scraped the ground with his claws: "It's so troublesome."
