Worried about being discovered by the three Spirit Cultivators, Wang Jixuan didn't dare to directly lock on and investigate.
He quietly followed them underground, while also tracking the fourth source of spiritual energy that was moving with the three Spirit Cultivators.
These four streams of spiritual energy rushed directly from the sky towards the colorful pillar of light;
They were flying extremely fast, and even Wang Jixuan was having some trouble keeping up with his earth escape technique.
The Taoist gradually saw it clearly.
The fourth powerful source of spiritual energy came from a middle-aged man wearing a black suit.
Three pairs of thin wings appeared on his back. These wings were not physical, but were made of spiritual energy, vibrating at a high frequency like the wings of a dragonfly.
The darkness of night concealed his figure;
But in Wang Jixuan's eyes, the contours of this person's figure, face, and details were clearly visible.
The Taoist could tell at a glance that it wasn't a human!
This was a Galina, one of the seven Galinas on Earth.
As for whether it had appeared in the previous footage threatening Black Storm, Wang Jixuan wasn't too sure.
At the time, he hadn't been able to memorize the auras of those Galinas.
In short, a demon.
Wang Jixuan was becoming more and more excited about this, and really wanted to see what kind of expression the Galina would have when it learned that the Lightwing Council had 'dug up' an ancient ruin.
Wasn't the whole point of going through all this just for that?
The Taoist switched from earth escape to water escape, increasing his speed slightly, and silently followed behind these four powerful streams of spiritual energy.
The strength of a Galina cannot be compared to that of the three Spirit Cultivators.
But behind it is the entire Bladebeast clan;
The information it receives can be shared with all Galinas on this planet through a special spiritual energy circuit.
— Within the interstellar range, they can share information as long as they are within a certain distance.
Wang Jixuan quickly discovered that the four streams of spiritual energy had stopped moving in the sky.
They did not directly approach the colorful pillar of light.
They were unexpectedly cautious.
Wang Jixuan quietly moved forward, broadly observing the sky with his spiritual sense. A specially treated wisp of spiritual sense stuck to the air, moving forward little by little.
In their cultivation world, escape techniques and spiritual sense are relatively low-threshold methods. It is very simple for cultivators to counteract these methods. Temporarily setting up some barriers or creating some simple formations can isolate spiritual sense and interrupt escape techniques.
However, Spirit Cultivators do not have these methods.
These are two completely different systems for utilizing spiritual energy.
Correspondingly, after Wang Jixuan obtained Old Sophie's core circuit, he constantly studied and gradually researched it, gaining his own understanding of this thing.
Before, he could only barely use it, but now he has gradually become proficient.
With this ebb and flow;
At this stage, as long as he doesn't directly fight with these three Spirit Cultivators, Wang Jixuan's advantage is still quite significant.
He heard it!
Wang Jixuan heard the voices of the four people in his mind.
In fact, he had also been careful.
Spirit Cultivators and Bladebeasts should be accustomed to using their native language;
If these four guys were communicating in Earth language now, then the Taoist would have to consider whether this was a trap set against him.
“Erh er rih dih nan erh wo dui…”
Good, completely incomprehensible.
The Taoist used his alien soul to activate the core circuit and open a simple spiritual energy circuit. He immediately understood the conversation of the four people.
“So, what exactly have you done? What is it?”
This harsh voice, like metal spikes rubbing against glass, should belong to the Galina.
The Second and Third Spirit Cultivators did not speak, but the First female Spirit Cultivator responded:
“This is a spiritual energy anomaly point. We have set up an observation station here, nothing more.”
“You are indeed searching for the ruins of an ancient civilization.”
“Perhaps there is some misunderstanding here. Ancient civilizations disappeared six hundred thousand orbital periods ago, and their ruins are unlikely to have survived for so long. This is indeed an observation point. If you don’t believe it, you can go down and take a look yourself.”
“I can,” the Galina immediately replied, “Let me go down.”
The First Spirit Cultivator, Sabina, was rendered silent by the Galina's directness and frankness.
The Second Spirit Cultivator, the white-robed elder Wanda, said with a smile: “Actually, there’s no need to hide anything. We are indeed looking for this ruin.”
“You have violated the contract again.”
The Galina’s tone was still calm:
“Perhaps I shouldn’t have had too much hope for you treacherous people.
“I need to remind you that the Star Gate can be opened at any time. Even if you get the things inside the ruins, you will not be able to resist us, who have the advantage in both numbers and strength.
“There are still two conditions to fulfill the contract. Even if these two conditions cannot be met, the time limit set by the contract is almost up.”
The Third Spirit Cultivator, the strong man who liked to wear golden armor, couldn’t help but speak at this moment:
“Speaking of the contract’s contents, you have not fulfilled your promises either.
“The help you promised us to unify the other Council Courts has made no progress at all.”
The Galina retorted: “Don’t blame your incompetence on us. We can only exert external pressure. You need to unify them yourselves.”
It changed the subject and began to make things difficult:
“Now, spiritual energy tides have appeared deep in the seabed, and with this degree of overflow, the gate of the ancient civilization may have been opened by your spirit slaves.
“The three of you should also make a decision.
“Continue to fulfill our contract, bring back your spirit slaves, and use your power to shatter this passage. We will send a legion here to garrison.
“Or, completely tear up the contract, and we will launch a final encirclement and suppression against you in this star field.
“In fact, you have already taken too many actions that violated the contract. If you activate the slumber circuit, you can explain it as a means to buy off those three Spirit Cultivators, so that they will submit together in the future.
“Then how should you explain the fact that you clearly had the opportunity to directly kill Black Storm before, but you allowed him to repeatedly attack and provoke us, resulting in the fall of a Beast God.
“We have already won this war, and you, as the losers, must either submit calmly or be eliminated by the course of history.
“Spiritual energy does not need losers.”
The cold wind in the sky was piercing;
The expressions of the three Spirit Cultivators all became deep.
The corners of their eyes constantly looked downward.
The delicate balance they had previously maintained with the Bladebeasts was now on the verge of collapse.
And the opportunity they had been craving was right in front of them.
“We have indeed failed,” the First Spirit Cultivator, Sabina, said somewhat dejectedly.
She gestured to Wanda, who understood and floated backward with a smile.
The Taoist Wang, who was observing in the sea, could tell at a glance what Wanda was going to do.
This white-robed elder was going to investigate and verify what was happening with the anomalies at the bottom of the sea. These three Lightwing Spirit Cultivators wouldn't act without seeing results.
It didn't matter. Mudan had fully considered this point when formulating the plan, and preparations had been made below.
Wanda's figure was about to fall into the sea.
“Stop,”
The Galina suddenly spoke, its voice grating and carrying a sense of authority that brooked no argument.
Wanda continued to retreat.
The Galina suddenly seemed to be enraged, growling: “Stop! You despicable one!”
Wanda stopped with an embarrassed smile.
That strongest one, the Third Spirit Cultivator, Nielda Tamon, had a hint of impatience in his eyes.
Sabina said directly: “We don’t know what the situation is below. We suspect that there may be something active that could threaten the cooperation between us and the safety of the Bladebeast civilization. From the perspective of protecting our allies, shouldn’t we also investigate this danger, right?”
Wanda's figure fell straight down, moving very fast, flashing continuously in the air, and plunging straight into the sea.
The Galina, wearing human skin, stared blankly at Sabina.
Sabina showed a sincere smile.
But the Galina suddenly calmed down at this moment.
It murmured: “Perhaps our idea was just wishful thinking from the beginning. You are fundamentally different from us. You have no clan, only self, while we have no self, only clan.”
Sabina immediately said: “The premise for the contract to be established is that we should trust each other, right?”
“Your trust?”
The Galina said:
“Isn’t it just that as soon as Wanda confirms that the road to the ancient gate has been opened, you will directly betray us?
“If it was just ordinary spiritual energy leakage, would you still be subservient to us?”
The Galina shook its head: “Our contract has come to an end. If the decision at the beginning was a mistake, I am willing to admit this mistake.”
The spiritual energy wings on its back began to tremble, and its body retreated continuously.
“I will bring you destruction within ten days.
“You will bear the wrath of our entire clan.”
“Spirit Cultivators, please remember, the cause of all this…”
The Galina’s rambling stopped abruptly.
It looked down at its chest.
There, a fist appeared out of nowhere, piercing through its chest from the back and grasping that special crystal core.
Nielda Tamon’s burly figure stood behind the Galina, his expression indifferent, and gently clenched his fist.
The crystal core shattered, and a small shockwave bloomed in the sky. The figures of the two Spirit Cultivators remained motionless.
Wang Jixuan captured a wisp of special soul power escaping.
That should be the Galina’s consciousness.
This…
How decisive.
That white-robed elder Wanda was still investigating, and no news had returned yet. This armored strong man had already chosen to attack!
Nielda Tamon casually threw away the Galina's corpse wearing human skin, shook his hand gently, and said coldly:
“Annoying.”
Sabina raised a hand to her forehead, somewhat annoyed: "This is too reckless!"
"He's already about to terminate the contract with us."
"Wanda hasn't given us any news yet!"
"No need," Nielda Tamon stared at the giant pillar of light, a hint of intoxication in his eyes, "Our true power awaits us below. What do you see here, Sabina? What I see is the horn that will kill all Blade Beasts."
Sabina cursed: "What if this is just ordinary psionic leakage? The Blade Beasts will attack us soon!"
"This is just a trigger."
Nielda Tamon's figure plummeted straight down, droning:
"The unreasonable demands he made this time, we can't meet any of them. After the Black Storm's disruption, the Blade Beasts are already impatient to make us their prisoners."
"Even if we drag it out, we only have a few months left."
"Do you want to become puppets of our creations? Then I'd rather die fighting, Sabina."
"Go find our treasure."
Sabina raised both hands, waving them meaninglessly, clearly wanting to curse but in the end only shouted elegantly:
"You brute! You're just a brute!"
Her figure plummeted straight down, and as she approached the sea surface, she made a point of looking at the location of Galeno's corpse.
The corpse was sliding into the sea.
Sabina felt a faint sense of unease at this moment.
… …
Perfect.
Wang Ji Xuan, hiding in the seawater, was actually a little dumbfounded.
His expectation was actually just to widen the rift between the Wings of Light Council and the Blade Beast civilization, and to disrupt their contract.
Unexpectedly;
That strongest guy didn't even wait for verification and directly crushed Galeno's crystal core with one punch.
How will the Blade Beasts retaliate?
It is foreseeable that the Blade Beasts will likely take comprehensive action against Psionic City this time.
Without the unstable factors brought by the Black Storm, the Blade Beasts are also working on advancing their plan to capture a batch of psionic cultivators to become repairmen.
This is actually also the benefit of Wang Ji Xuan's feigned death escape—shifting the main contradiction to the Blade Beasts.
Wang Ji Xuan looked towards the range of the light pillar.
Next, as long as Number Five successfully escapes, they can retire with success.
What could be a greater gain than provoking the Blade Beasts to fight with the Wings of Light?
Wang Ji Xuan couldn't think of anything… …
"Hey!"
A jade-like hand, with a light membrane isolating the seawater, gently patted Wang Ji Xuan on the back.
Daoist Wang shuddered, his figure spun around, his hands waved out afterimages, dozens of talismans and seven or eight magical artifacts instantly formed a defensive array around him.
He almost went all out and blasted it out.
It was Amina, who was now wrapped in a light membrane, standing prettily in front of him, her aura fluctuating almost to zero, her deep blue hair exuding a different kind of charm under the reflection of the light membrane.
She smiled triumphantly: "Your technology plus my technology seems to have produced an effect greater than one plus one equals two."
Daoist Wang breathed a sigh of relief and put away the fighting resources into his storage magic treasure.
"Let's go quickly, you're still in the mood to tease me."
"Don't worry, I placed the formation you gave me at their deepest station. The formation has now self-destructed, and the psionic energy will continue to release for a few more minutes. They won't be able to come back for a while."
"Guess what just happened?"
"What?"
"One of Galeno's bodies died," Wang Ji Xuan said, "Killed by those three."
Amina was stunned for a moment, not too happy, and said in a low voice: "Although it's beneficial to us, next, many more lives will be lost in the war."
"Your moral bottom line is actually a bit higher than mine. I didn't even think about these things just now."
Wang Ji Xuan waved his hand, and Amina understood, took out the stone slab, and drilled into it. The stone slab was taken away by Wang Ji Xuan.
Just as the Daoist was about to leave… …
"Officer," Peony suddenly said, "Can Galeno's corpse be recovered? Professor Shen would probably like this rare material."
"It's possible, anyway, those three guys will soon realize that someone is playing tricks."
Wang Ji Xuan turned around and transformed into a stream of water in the seawater, taking away Galeno's constantly sinking corpse.
Hmm?
This corpse wearing human skin seems to still have some weak consciousness?
