"High-altitude target, thirty seconds to impact!"
"Target releasing massive flames! Missiles fired have been destroyed by the enemy!"
"Damn it! This Rank S can even control its own speed! It's getting bigger! It's become a giant! How is this possible!"
"Recording a new ability of a psionic user, never before discovered!"
"Flame Giant commencing impact!"
"Evacuate! Evacuate! All firepower, prepare! Open fire!"
Boom!
The massive fireball hammered the ground, the surface military camp of Fortress 76 being mostly destroyed by the erupting shockwave.
Rolling black smoke shot towards the sky, a giant reaching a hundred meters in height slowly rising.
A large amount of artillery fire erupted around it.
Surface firepower engaging in all-out shooting!
The rolling waves of fire possessed an indescribable power. Shells directly penetrated the flames, and even if they exploded within the fiery body, the energy produced by the explosions would be directly absorbed by the giant, causing its body to expand even further.
It was as if this Flame Giant had been specifically optimized to counter standard human firepower units.
The only weapons capable of harming the Flame Giant were laser cannons and annihilation cannons.
However, the soldiers' instruments were unable to lock onto the Flame Giant's vital points and weaknesses. The constantly firing laser cannons and the annihilation beams released by the semi-human mechs only managed to destroy a small area of the Flame Giant, which would then rapidly regenerate.
It began to wave its arms, and massive fireballs covered all directions, triggering violent explosions everywhere.
It slowly strode forward. When its giant fiery leg landed, a scorching shockwave raged once more, rapidly overturning and igniting any figures that attempted to approach it, turning them to ashes in mid-air.
In the human military's communication channels, a group of people were constantly cursing.
Clearly, the psionic energy readings they detected indicated that the Flame Giant's strength was definitely not at the SS level, but all the means of the human soldiers were simply unable to inflict effective damage on it.
Adding insult to injury:
On the outskirts of the Sari Desert, figures darted out of the desert in the darkness of night, rushing towards Fortress 76.
The slaughter began.
The human soldiers' defenses were rapidly destroyed under the combined attack of powerful psionic users from both inside and outside.
The garrison quickly responded:
Semi-human mech commander, Deep Sea, had secretly dispatched a special operations team to rush towards the area where these psionic users had first appeared, searching for underground shuttles and invisible aircraft hidden in the desert, commencing a comprehensive sweep.
Regardless of whether they could win this wave, the subsequent reinforcements would eventually surround and kill these psionic users!
Since they came, then none of them would be allowed to leave!
The battle at the military camp, from the moment the Flame Giant descended, had already been exceptionally brutal.
Although the surface garrison had already proactively abandoned the defense of the fortress itself, a large number of elite combat forces were packed into the first to sixth levels of the upper city, preparing to engage in street fighting with the invading enemies.
However, the destructive power of this Flame Giant was truly too astonishing.
It was not in a hurry to rush down, but instead proactively provided cover for the psionic users as they jumped down the elevator shafts, launching fireballs in all directions, incinerating everything.
Fire Rong was intentionally slaughtering ordinary soldiers.
Just as she had said in the transmitted video, this was the Psionic Capital's punishment for the D5 war zone, and also a deterrent to human society.
And deterrence required killing until these inferior humans were completely terrified.
… …
Sixth level corner, near the fortress's wall.
Ling Tong, Mu Dan, and the others had already gone to the upper levels to meet the large group of psionic users.
Wang Ji Xuan, Ji Xiao, and Wu Man sat on three small stools, waiting at the edge of the wall.
Wang Ji Xuan's expression was very calm, his spiritual sense enveloping the area above, deconstructing the Flame Giant's psionic energy circulation routes.
Beside Wang Ji Xuan, Wu Man, who was guarding a small display screen, had mostly an expression of anger.
Ji Xiao couldn't bear to look at the images on the display screen… because he was kind and couldn't bear to see this kind of slaughter.
Although just not long ago, Ji Xiao was also a part of these slaughters.
Wu Man asked in confusion: "Is this Fire Rong really only ranked 19th? If they send someone even stronger, can we still withstand it?"
"It's actually not quite the same."
Wang Ji Xuan said:
"The known rankings of Rank S psionic users are actually rankings given by the military outside the Psionic Capital, mainly based on the level of psionic energy within their bodies, that is, how much… mottled Qi they possess."
"Mottled Qi?"
"Yes, it's psionic energy."
Wang Ji Xuan said calmly:
"Someone like Mo Feng has a lot of Qi, but only knows specific abilities, so their actual combat power is just so-so."
"In fact, Ji Xiao's memories show that Mo Feng was even used as a resource by Xing Tian."
"An existence like Xing Tian is actually the greatest threat. He learns, he can explore paths to become stronger on his own. Of course, it's also possible that he obtained the inheritance of the Spiritual Cultivator civilization."
"And the appearance of this Flame Giant allows me to basically determine that there should be awakened Spiritual Cultivators on the Psionic Capital's side."
Wu Man's eyes widened: "Awakened Spiritual Cultivators!"
"Yes, this ability cannot be mastered by awakening alone, but rather she has some kind of secret technique, a systematic secret technique."
Wang Ji Xuan calmly recounted:
"Using Mo Feng as a baseline."
"Mo Feng has a hundred units of psionic energy, but can only unleash sixty units of power, possessing a treasure mountain but not knowing how to use it."
"So when we besieged her, she couldn't get up after being knocked down, but we needed to bombard her many times to kill her."
"Xing Tian has one hundred and five units of psionic energy, and can probably unleash ninety units of power, and many of his abilities are focused on escaping."
"And this Fire Rong has about one hundred and twenty units of psionic energy, but she can unleash one hundred and thirty units of power… This means that she possesses a systematic method of using psionic energy."
"You can't see it now, but her Flame Giant's structure is very exquisite, and it greatly utilizes the psionic energy in the air."
Wang Ji Xuan's eyes carried a bit of golden light as he slowly said:
"Her ability has been designed, with a complete force exertion process and a return force process. The psionic energy in the air is constantly converging towards her. The giant itself, which she created using her own psionic energy, has an extremely complex structure, even possessing many mechanical-like structures."
"This method of using psionic energy is indeed very high-level."
"Interestingly, she can absorb psionic energy from the air, but cannot increase her own total psionic energy, not even a very slight increase."
"It's as if she's been restricted by some kind of prohibition."
"The feeling this psionic user gives me is like… a Blade Beast."
"Blade Beast?" Ji Xiao couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"It's just an analogy. The two have similarities. The Blade Beast has a strict internal hierarchy, divided according to the energy within their crystal cores. High-level Blade Beasts possess more abilities, while low-level basic Blade Beasts only have mental impact."
Wang Ji Xuan leaned back, watching the charred corpses appearing on the screen.
He sighed inwardly, but his expression remained as usual.
At this moment, large-scale firefights had already begun on the first and second levels of the fortress. Dozens of powerful psionic users charged into the elevator shafts, ventilation ducts, and other entrances.
More than a dozen semi-human mechs led special operations teams, using the terrain and various firepower points to block them.
Wang Ji Xuan carefully felt with his spiritual sense.
He had to wait for this Fire Rong to enter the underground, otherwise, if he showed his face now, he would almost certainly be suppressed by the opponent.
Before that, he could only hope that Ling Tong and the others could delay her.
If Fire Rong really possessed the inheritance of the Spiritual Cultivator civilization, or even, if Fire Rong was very likely being taught by a Spiritual Cultivator, then Fire Rong should be a psionic user with comprehensive abilities, with scouting power, attack power, defense power, soul protection power, and so on, unlikely to have any obvious weaknesses.
To deal with such a master, he had to comprehensively suppress Fire Rong.
Today, this hurdle was not only his own tribulation but could also be considered the first collision between two civilizations.
The Taoist didn't want to lose to the opponent.
Losing would affect his own inner spirit.
Wang Ji Xuan simply said: "Wu Man, write down everything I've said."
"Yes, sir," Wu Man said hesitantly.
Wang Ji Xuan began to make a simple summary, his voice neither hurried nor slow:
"Analyzing from the Flame Giant's internal structure, the Psionic Capital conceals extremely great secrets."
"I saw in Ji Xiao's memories, and this has already been told to Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian, that the psionic user infusion ritual is related to the Spiritual Cultivator civilization. The Psionic Capital firmly controls those ancient relic stone walls."
"In addition, the psionic users' advancement rituals, that is, A rising to S, S rising to SS, I suspect also have the participation of the Spiritual Cultivator civilization."
"These are all my guesses."
"In my personal feeling, the Spiritual Cultivator civilization seems to be the source of all human disasters. Psionic users and Blade Beasts are all closely related to this civilization. Blade Beasts are like a tool, and psionic users are similar to a servant…"
"Blade Beasts fill their crystal cores with psionic energy by absorbing the luminous stones hidden in the earth. This part of the psionic energy is stored in the crystal core."
"The crystal core also has a mechanism for detaining the souls of dead Blade Beasts. In my opinion, this mechanism is very likely a reuse of materials, and the Blade Beast's soul is that material."
"Therefore, Blade Beasts may be a kind of psionic energy manufacturing machine, except that they seem to have betrayed the Spiritual Cultivator civilization and given birth to their own civilization."
"The Blade Beast civilization and the Spiritual Cultivator civilization have become mortal enemies."
"Psionic users are likely human servants cultivated by the Spiritual Cultivator civilization."
"In an extreme guess, the Psionic Capital, inside and out, was created by the Spiritual Cultivator civilization. However, it is also possible that humans researched the technology and relics left behind by the Spiritual Cultivators… This is probably only known by the Six Elders."
"Do you remember?"
Wu Man immediately nodded, then asked softly: "Sir, why do you want me to remember these things?"
“Because I'm not sure if I can return safely from this battle with Huo Rong, you must take this information to Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian and tell him in person, do not use electronic communication.”
Wang Ji Xuan raised his right hand, stared at his palm, and said slowly:
“In the current situation, thinking about escaping will most likely lead to death.”
“The Blade Beasts are looking for me, and the Spirit Energy Capital is also looking for me. The Blade Beasts want to destroy me at all costs.”
“But from another perspective, if we eliminate this force tonight, it will definitely be a huge blow to the Spirit Energy Capital.”
“Because I haven't seen other S-level spirit energy users, I don't know how much power the Spirit Energy Capital is hiding, but Huo Rong is definitely not comparable to S-level spirit energy users like Mo Feng. Killing her and this group of spirit energy users will be a heavy blow to the ruling faction of the Spirit Energy Capital.”
“That way, I can have a more enjoyable time for a while.”
“Come on, remember this incantation. Later, if I become delirious and want to attack our own people, you should repeatedly recite this incantation in my ear. I will transmit it to you.”
“Remember…”
“It will absolutely not be leaked,” Wu Man pointed to the self-destruct chip installed inside his neck. “I will strictly guard the secret until I receive Mr.'s permission.”
Wang Ji Xuan nodded with a smile, signaling Wu Man to close his eyes and concentrate, while he began to transmit the sound.
This was a Buddhist scripture, also the nemesis of demonic arts.
At this moment, Wang Ji Xuan looked up, seeing the figures fighting fiercely everywhere through layers of obstructions, and also saw the shrinking flame giant.
Huo Rong destroyed the surface barracks and was about to enter the underground to fight.
“Ji Xiao,” Wang Ji Xuan pulled out a stack of blank emerald green talisman paper from his pocket, lowered his head, and bit his finger. “Take us up.”
… …
A few minutes ago, D5 Joint War Zone Headquarters.
Fu Jian rubbed his forehead with his fingers. On the projection screen wall in front of him, the tragic situation of Fortress 76 was being played.
A large number of spirit energy users launched a surprise attack.
Human soldiers fought bravely to resist.
It would take some time for our reinforcements to arrive, and currently, there was a 50% chance of holding out during this time.
The screen showed:
Mu Dan, wearing X armor and wielding a light blade, eliminated a team composed of several A and B-level spirit energy users;
Ling Tong and two combat mechs cooperated with each other and were encircling and annihilating two lone A-level spirit energy users;
The mechanical arms of two semi-human mechs were shattered by spirit energy users. Because the area was too narrow, self-destruction would cause more harm to their own people. The two semi-human mechs chose to shut themselves down.
One special operations team soldier after another formed a dense firepower network, but the spirit energy assault team, equipped with a large number of technological equipment, easily broke through these defenses…
Although questioning during wartime was a taboo, Fu Jian couldn't help but ask:
“The Spirit Energy Capital has mobilized so much combat power. Didn't our intelligence network have any feedback? Is this normal?”
More than a dozen generals behind him were silent.
Several people spoke in turn:
“Commander-in-Chief, we just received intelligence that most of our informants suddenly suffered a purge an hour ago, and more than 160 people were directly killed…”
“Commander-in-Chief, we are purging the spies planted by the spirit energy users, and they are also purging us. Previously, they had always been in the dominant position.”
“Moreover, the general in charge of contacting the intelligence network over there had a period of time… when he was already an internal traitor who had been caught by us. Although we took remedial measures, we didn't expect the other party's counterattack to come so quickly.”
“This is indeed our mistake, Commander-in-Chief, but we have already detected several of their secret bases, which are the origin of these spirit energy users, and we have locked onto their lair!”
“Okay, I know.”
Fu Jian didn't say much and simply said:
“Tell Bei Ke and the other two that if these spirit energy users, especially this Huo Rong, leave D5 alive, then don't come back to see me.”
“Also, launch a tactical nuclear weapon with the smallest yield at Xing Dian's Snow Mountain Base, and launch a large yield earth-penetrating nuclear weapon at these secret bases.”
“Tell each war zone involved about the nuclear weapons in advance. If they dare to stop us, we will immediately declare war.”
A general asked: “Commander-in-Chief, will doing so cause conflicts between war zones?”
“We have endured for decades,” Fu Jian said calmly, “The harm of spirit energy hegemony is no less than the Blade Beast tide. It's time to cut out the poison.”
“Yes!”
“Commander-in-Chief! Huo Rong has shrunk! She is about to enter the interior of the fortress!”
“Trust our soldiers.”
Fu Jian closed his eyes and didn't look any further.
“Let Bei Ke and the others be faster, even if it shortens the support time by tens of seconds.”
“Yes!”
… …
Fortress 76, the surface barracks have been destroyed.
The flame giant quickly shrank from tens of meters high to the size of a normal person, returning to Huo Rong's figure. The special gel suit on her body absorbed the last ball of fire.
Her long hair became wavy, and there were still flames dancing at the ends.
Huo Rong licked her lips, a smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, and said intoxicatedly:
“Won't they be scared silly? Heh heh heh, this is the true power of spirit energy users. Did you really think we were all waste material bodies like Mo Feng?”
Behind her, several of her confidant servants rushed up and presented a scepter to Huo Rong.
Huo Rong took the scepter and admired the scorched earth of the barracks.
A tall, thin woman laughed: “They should be terrified now! Before this, they must have thought that your great victory over the Wang-level Blade Beast alone was just a falsely reported achievement, but today you have successfully proven this lethality!”
“I don't need to prove anything, but I must make them correct their position.”
Huo Rong lowered her head and stepped over the huge fan blades, leading a few people quickly inside.
“How is the fighting going below?”
The tall, thin woman immediately became nervous: “The progress is not very smooth. We are blocked on the third floor. Their firepower is very strong, even stronger than we expected in the most extreme situation. We have already suffered more than 20 casualties.”
“More than 20 people?”
Huo Rong frowned and glared at her subordinates, scolding:
“Are you saying that we mobilized all the high-end combat power from the three secret bases, used so much effort to deceive their intelligence network, and equipped them with expensive weapons of all kinds, and now we have already lost more than 20 people?”
“The other side has already killed nearly 3,000 people, and there are also four semi-human mechs… It can only be said that it is very tragic. Their fighting will is very firm, and there is no sign of collapse.”
Huo Rong suddenly threw a slap.
The tall, thin woman's body flew out horizontally and fell on the pipeline, then quickly got up and walked back to Huo Rong.
Huo Rong shook her neck and said indifferently: “We don't have much time. We must resolve all battles within half an hour, otherwise we will be blocked here by Fu Jian's subordinates. Several guys under him whose modification level is close to his are existences that can threaten me.”
“Yes, Lord, you are right, but…”
“These wastes really can't be relied on!”
Huo Rong raised her scepter, and scorching flames surrounded the scepter. Then, she slammed it down, and an incandescent fireball quickly burned and melted everything below, and a passage led directly to the third floor.
Huo Rong's figure slowly descended, instructing a few people:
“You go and help too, find the awakened spirit cultivator as soon as possible. Remember, silver-white armor. He has already been crippled by Xing Dian.”
“Yes, Lord!”
Huo Rong began to accelerate her descent.
The fireball under her feet had burned through the ceiling of the third floor, just above the Spirit Energy Home, and began to indiscriminately release rolling fire waves in all directions.
Huo Rong appeared in front of the crowd who were fighting fiercely, accompanied by the fire waves.
Her voice echoed far away on the third floor:
“Who is the strongest semi-human mech?”
A captain cursed: “I am your mother! Fire!”
A team of soldiers closest to Huo Rong fired at the same time, heavy machine guns, rocket launchers, special laser cannons for spirit energy users… All firepower was synchronized.
But in the same second, a scene that subverted everyone's common sense suddenly unfolded.
Huo Rong didn't make any defenses, just calmly accepted all the shots, but bullets, shells, missiles, and laser cannons all seemed to hit a holographic image, only making her body constantly fluctuate, but unable to cause her any harm.
Her figure was illusory and real.
The scene was silent.
Huo Rong raised the scepter in her right hand and aimed it at the group of soldiers, snapping her fingers with her left hand.
The scepter shot out a line of fire, and the end of the line of fire concentrated on an armored vehicle, causing a violent explosion.
The flames of the explosion actually condensed into a giant four or five meters high and began to pounce on these ordinary soldiers.
A sharp whistle came from the side. Two former semi-human mechs in their forties rushed from the left and right at the same time. The destruction cannons were charging, and the crystal core swords in their hands were about to bloom with two rays of cyan light.
Huo Rong rotated the scepter in a circle, and the two semi-human mechs suddenly let out screams. Two balls of flames mysteriously appeared on the parts of their bodies that had not been mechanically modified, and their brains were quickly burned.
“This is the semi-human mech? The weakness is so obvious. In the face of my power, you are really vulnerable.”
Huo Rong ignored all artillery attacks, and the scepter in her hand kept tapping, and lines of fire detonated armored vehicles everywhere, and used the energy generated by the explosion to create flame giants, quickly destroying defenses everywhere on the third floor.
The fortress's command channel was constantly shouting to retreat.
At this moment, Huo Rong was suddenly attracted by the silver-white figure running in the corner.
She smiled slightly, and her figure flew over directly.
Demon helmet, bright silver-white armor, damaged shoulders… Is this the awakened spirit cultivator that ED old squad leader mentioned?
Huo Rong opened her left hand, and her expression changed slightly.
She couldn't feel the flesh and blood within it? But she could feel a strange soul force?
It really is!
It really is!
Only a true spirit cultivator possesses this kind of magical power!
Huo Rong clearly understood this power. She now believed more than anyone that this was a true spirit cultivator.
"Spirit cultivator, be a good girl and come home with me."
Huo Rong said gently, but she unleashed a three-meter diameter pillar of fire, cutting off the silver armored suit's path.
Huo Rong charged straight at her.
Good opportunity!
Mudan, inside the X armor, smirked. She slammed on the brakes, bent her legs, raised her head, and suddenly sprinted forward, directly colliding with Huo Rong!
New Wingman Rule: Killing all enemies is an effective way to protect the commander.
Mudan charged forward like the wind!
Huo Rong's figure suddenly expanded, transforming into a slender, three-meter tall flame giant in a second.
Mudan frowned tightly.
Her ability is mainly physical impact. In this situation...
Mudan had no way to avoid it and collided head-on with Huo Rong. Huo Rong suddenly groaned in pain, and a small human-shaped mark appeared on the flame giant's chest.
Mudan's mecha-soul had caused substantial damage to Huo Rong!
"You hurt me!"
Huo Rong turned around and glared, her body condensing into a normal human form, her hair burning with flames, and her scepter constantly trembling in front of her.
"Die!"
The spiritual energy in the air was instantly absorbed by the scepter, and then flames erupted, with streaks of white fire shooting forward like rockets!
"Crap."
Mudan began to dodge left and right, but was ultimately hit by a streak of fire, and her body was thrown far back, with a pile of parts exploding from the X armor.
Huo Rong gradually approached, and she had begun to notice Mudan's abnormality.
Mudan jumped up and began to flee backward, trying her best to delay Huo Rong's offensive rhythm.
At the same time!
The fortress's counterattack had begun!
......
On the surface, in the destroyed military camp, the remaining dozen or so psionicists were forced back by the surrounding warriors.
A series of explosions and firelight came from the distant desert.
A large number of drones appeared in the air. These were fire support units from several extended districts.
These psionicists shouted constantly, retreating towards various ventilation ducts and elevator shafts.
Almost no one noticed that two figures were running around in this scorched earth, sticking thirty-six blood-soaked talismans in various areas.
Wang Jixuan sat cross-legged in the center of the scorched earth, rapidly forming hand seals, but he couldn't help but hesitate in his heart.
To take down Huo Rong, he currently only had three methods.
The first method was only recently unlocked. His current Yuan Soul power was sufficient to ignite the remnant soul of a Mahayana cultivator. Wang Jixuan wouldn't consider this much unless it was the only option, as it was his only life-saving trick.
The second method was naturally the Demonic Art Soul Refinement.
But refining the soul to this extent would almost certainly cause him to fall into demonic corruption, becoming a monster consumed by resentment. Although there was hope of being saved by the Mahayana remnant soul, the price was indeed too high.
The third method was actually something he had just come up with.
To set up a demonic array, cast Buddhist magic, and use Buddhist magic to suppress the demonic array with the power of vows.
Although there was a risk in doing so, the risk was controllable. The only requirement was that the several extended districts of the fortress had to cooperate.
Wang Jixuan had already issued orders to the commanders of each extended district, and they had already had a large number of soldiers begin to recite a passage of scripture, meditating in place.
As for the effect... Heaven knows.
Should he try it?
Wang Jixuan was still somewhat hesitant.
He had actually escaped;
He could actually turn a blind eye, find a place to wait for twenty minutes, and the two powerful semi-human mecha instructors, Black Shell and others, would come to support him.
As Ling Tong said, he could give the war zone more. This time, just staying alive was enough.
But...
But this...
In twenty minutes, Huo Rong could break through the entire defense line, reach the eighth-floor reservoir, and release that so-called virus.
At least forty percent of the 800,000 people in Fortress 76 would die.
Of course, it was also possible that Huo Rong was deliberately intimidating the human war zones to scare them. This powerful and mysterious S-class psionicist, who controlled psionic energy with such delicate manipulation, was not as simple and direct in her arrogance and conceit.
'Jixuan, although you have only been under my tutelage for two years, you already know propriety. According to the rules of the sect, I need to ask you a question: what do you think cultivation is for?'
'Reporting to Master, cultivation is for becoming an immortal!'
'Silly disciple, we are righteous cultivators, and sometimes we must hypocritically say that we are upholding justice, protecting the weak, being chivalrous, and eliminating demons.'
'But Master, you said that these are very hypocritical.'
'Saying that these creeds are hypocritical is because cultivators plunder the essence of heaven and earth to benefit themselves, not because these creeds are wrong or inappropriate. I don't want you to be a righteous hero, because that would be very tiring and uncomfortable. In the future, you only need to achieve eight words, and that will be enough.'
'Which eight words, Master?'
'Introspect without guilt, take without shame.'
Introspect without guilt, take without shame.
Wang Jixuan smiled freely, opened his eyes from his cross-legged position, and a ball of black flames bloomed from his forehead, enveloping his figure in black mist, and his figure slowly rose into the air.
Inhale, reverse the heavenly cycle, Demonic Luo Heavenly Fiend, boundless Buddhist Dharma!
Wang Jixuan pressed the button in his hand and said in a low voice: "All units, pay attention, chant sutras together."
Thus, the sound of chanting sutras simultaneously came from the five extended districts, and this chanting sound crossed the physical distance and reflected in Wang Jixuan's heart.
The entire night seemed to be ignited by a shimmering golden light.
Wang Jixuan pointed his sword diagonally, his killing intent surging, his Buddhist heart suppressed, and the thirty-six blood talismans distributed in the ruins of the military camp were simultaneously lit up, and dozens of general-level Blade Beast crystal cores near the blood talismans were simultaneously shattered!
This array is a taboo in the cultivation world, a forbidden technique of the Demonic Luo Heavenly Fiend Art.
It is called Soul Refining Sky Slaughter!
Refine vengeful souls, condense oneself, and break the mountain-protecting array!
The spiritual energy surged, and the spirit-gathering array was activated out of thin air, with the spiritual energy within a ten-kilometer radius rushing towards this place, and layers of bloodstains appeared on the earth.
The sound of chanting sutras, the sound of killing, and the sound of thousands of troops and horses galloping suddenly resounded everywhere.
Strands of black smoke flew out of the ground.
Those were souls.
They were war souls!
They were souls who had died tragically in the flames, filled with resentment!
Wang Jixuan held his hands flat, his figure completely wrapped in black smoke, and a huge phantom appeared behind him.
Take my Dao body as a demonic banner, and accommodate three hundred unwilling souls.
No, to kill this psionicist, three hundred is not enough, a thousand is not enough!
Take my Dao body as a demonic banner, and accommodate three thousand angry and resentful souls!
Must not fall into demonic corruption.
The sound of chanting sutras in the five extended districts seemed to be isolated.
Wang Jixuan raised his hands high, and the huge phantom behind him revealed the angry face of a Shura, and the rolling black smoke covered the sky and the earth. Countless souls drilled out of the ground, flew out of those scorched corpses, and a sea of blood appeared on the ground, and the blood of countless corpses was gathering and flowing.
Kill!
The sound of killing shook the heavens and the earth!
The immortal cultivator opened his eyes in the black smoke, raised his left hand, and clenched it forward like a claw!
Sacrifice you to the banner!
The A-level body strengthening psionicist who was stunned suddenly screamed, clutching his head, and his body floated up, strands of black smoke flying out of his facial features, and his body was rapidly disintegrating, and after two seconds, it exploded into a bloody mist with a pop.
The Shura phantom behind Wang Jixuan opened its mouth and devoured constantly, and two huge sabers were added to its arms.
He sneered, discovering that Huo Rong was rushing from the third floor to the surface, and he was about to rush down, when a sharp pain suddenly occurred in his brow, and two drops of blood seeped out of his eyes.
Crap... the Buddhist Dharma can't suppress it...
The great array is backfiring!
In just an instant, countless voices echoed in Wang Jixuan's ears, and countless fragments of memory impacted his mind!
"Save me, save me..."
"Wife, I can't go back, wife, it hurts so much."
"Can we win?"
"Why, why do humans come to fight us? We have fought the Blade Beasts so many times, why do they come to fight us."
"Mom, Mom, are you okay."
"It hurts, it hurts so much..."
"I was burned by fire, save me!"
Huo Rong had already rushed to the second floor!
The huge demonic shadow curled up, as if it was about to collapse at any moment.
Wang Jixuan took out a handful of silver needles and pierced them into his forehead!
"Listen to me! Listen to me!"
He roared in a hoarse voice in the black smoke, as if he was shouting at someone, but his voice spread everywhere.
"I only ask you!"
"Kill this psionicist! Kill this psionicist, protect the common people of this place! Are you willing? Are you willing!"
Then, everyone only heard a faint response from the black smoke:
"Willing."
"Willing."
"Willing."
"Willing! I am willing!"
"We can protect everything!"
The warriors around shouted: "We are also willing!"
The warriors in the five extended districts suddenly felt dizzy and dizzy. They seemed to see layers of golden light, and they kept chanting sutras, subconsciously starting to recite this extremely simple scripture aloud, using their spirit, their morale, and their belief in victory!
"P迦兰 多 伽弥腻..."
Wang Jixuan shouted hoarsely, holding his head:
"All are willing! Like-minded! Aligned! Return to the array! Return to the array——"
The rolling black smoke converged towards the phantom curled up behind, and a touch of golden light bloomed from the Shura, and the Shura turned around from the air, half Buddha angry Vajra, half black demon Shura!
Below, a ball of fire had rushed out of the elevator shaft!
Huo Rong, wrapped inside, looked up at Wang Jixuan floating in the air!
Huo Rong showed a ferocious smile at the corner of her mouth, saw that Wang Jixuan's condition was not right, so she let the flames around her swell and turned into a flame giant in the blink of an eye, raised her hand and grabbed towards the air!
Wang Jixuan, who was holding his forehead with both hands, suddenly opened his eyes, and the shadow of Shura that appeared behind him opened his eyes simultaneously.
His figure plunged downwards, moving in sync with the Asura. Vajra pressed forward with his left palm, and the Asura's shadow brandished its giant blade, slashing downwards with ferocious force!
Huo Rong's expression drastically changed.
She realized the danger, the immense danger.
A surge of powerful energy, one she couldn't comprehend or describe, suddenly erupted from the monster before her. It was a chilling, bone-piercing cold, an anger capable of shattering her, the roar of countless souls.
The world before Huo Rong's eyes rapidly turned black and white.
Her flames vanished!
Her psychic energy disappeared!
She felt as if she were without a thread of clothing, standing once more before that stone wall, watching the flickering flame-like words upon it.
Then, the stone wall was suddenly shattered.
Before her was a black shadow pouncing towards her!
The weapon in the black shadow's hand trembled incessantly, vibrating at an extreme speed.
She couldn't dodge, couldn't do anything. In that instant, she recalled her past, but before those images could flash by, the blade had already sliced across her throat, pierced her soul, and penetrated her being, her all, her past, her future!
The black and white vanished in an instant.
Wang Ji Xuan stood behind Huo Rong, the Vajra Asura phantom, now several sizes smaller, hovering behind him.
"This… how is this possible…"
Huo Rong's rubber suit was covered in spiderweb-like cracks, and she muttered repeatedly.
"How could you… defeat me…"
"What… power… is this…"
"You aren't… a psychic…"
Her eyes rapidly became hollow, and her forehead suddenly exploded, splattering red and white matter outwards. Her body slumped forward, collapsing powerlessly, her massive and pure psychic energy transforming into spiritual energy surging in all directions.
Thousands of warriors in the five outer expansion zones fainted almost simultaneously!
Wang Ji Xuan knelt on one knee, his entire body soaked in sweat. He turned and flung out a Soul-Seizing Talisman, collecting a portion of Huo Rong's remaining soul.
"Wang Zheng!"
Several figures flew over from below, following the path Huo Rong had created.
Shen Hai took the lead, charging towards Wang Ji Xuan.
Wang Ji Xuan's mind relaxed, but his eyes suddenly turned blood-red. He shouted and slammed a palm towards Shen Hai's forehead.
Shen Hai's face turned pale, not because he didn't want to dodge, but because he had no chance to do so.
But fortunately, Wang Ji Xuan's palm-blade stopped three inches from Shen Hai's face, Wang Ji Xuan trembling all over.
The sound of chanting arose from the side, and the young Wu Man spontaneously clasped his hands together, two layers of precious light appearing behind him.
Wang Ji Xuan's head throbbed with pain, Buddhist scriptures and demonic arts clashing within his soul. He swallowed a pill and roared:
"Don't worry about me! Kill them all! Kill!"
Then, he grabbed Wu Man and fled into the darkness.
Wu Man immediately continued chanting, already knowing that this could help Mister.
Shen Hai abruptly turned and looked at the frightened psychic users below. He turned his head and directly used a light blade to chop off Huo Rong's head, grabbing this disfigured thing and rushing downwards.
"Annihilate them!"
Afraid that readers might miss it, here is some information that can now be made public.
S-level refers to the standard for the amount of variegated Qi in the body, and there are three types:
① Mo Feng, half material and half thug, has not come into contact with the civilization of psychic cultivators, and is relatively useless.
② Xing Dian, has come into contact with the civilization of psychic cultivators, but has not obtained a way to control psychic energy.
③ Huo Rong, was [inspired] by the civilization of psychic cultivators. It is not explicitly written in the text, but the information is fragmented and needs to be searched for.
The energy of an S-level psychic cultivator corresponds to the energy of a King-level Blade Beast crystal core.
However, the King-level Blade Beast has countless lackeys, and the Blade Beast tide is the most difficult to deal with, not a simple quantification.
The Terror Mecha is aimed at super-large targets, that is, King-level Blade Beasts, and is actually a constraint for small targets like S-level psychic cultivators.
The reason why the male lead has been using demonic arts is very simple: different characteristics.
Daoist methods emphasize gradual accumulation, with Daoist realms being equated with strength, so they are not very effective in the early stages and can only exert their power in the middle stages.
Demonic arts, on the other hand, can explode quickly by paying a price. To take care of the reader's emotions, many costs have actually been deliberately ignored.
Demonic arts and Buddhist techniques are both to provide guarantees for the development of Daoist methods. Only by entering the Golden Core realm can the power of Daoist methods be revealed.
[The Immortal Cultivation World also has this structure. Demonic arts are quick to achieve, but Daoist methods often have the last laugh.]
This chapter is the last chapter of the third act ~
The three attempts to break the situation were all passive, which is the reason for the dissatisfaction of some readers, but logically speaking, at this stage, formations can only be used to make up for the power gap.
As Daoist Master continues to level up, the rhythm will naturally become lighter, and Daoist Master will also enter a proactive counterattack rhythm.
The next chapter is the fourth act ~
