597: Chapter 198: The Guiyi Army’s Dilemma 597: Chapter 198: The Guiyi Army’s Dilemma An Jing also noticed the teams that had quickly rushed to the site of the Heavenly Tribulation after he had left.
So of them were groups of Loose Cultivators; Heavenly Tribulations had beco exceedingly rare in recent years, so they ca hoping to witness one to aid their breakthrough, but arrived too late, beating their chests and stomping their feet in frustration.
However, the Heavenly Tribulation had left behind a lot of pure Spirit Qi, essential for Foundation Establishnt, prompting quite a few Loose Cultivators to simply sit down and cultivate right there.
But soon, these Loose Cultivators were driven away by another group.
The company’s teams were easy to spot; they were all clad in armor, transported by flying shuttles, and arrived breaking through the sky.
Upon their arrival, three professional squads dispersed all the surrounding Loose Cultivators, then several heavily guarded technical cultivators landed in the center of the Heavenly Tribulation site, beginning to set up equipnt to analyze the residual properties of the Spirit Qi.
“Is there a problem?”
Huo Qing also noticed this.
Frowning, he looked back: “Those company dogs are quite formidable, their technology can even detect which places’ Spirit Qi we’ve trained with recently.”
“Don’t worry, they won’t find out a thing.” An Jing was absolutely confident.
Not to ntion he had been cultivating in the Huai Xu Realm; even if these people had the ability to track across realms, the remaining Spirit Qi property was of the Water Elent: “Have you forgotten?
The tribulation just now was a water thunder, and I usually use tal and fire.
They will never find out what I actually cultivate.”
Huo Qing also found it strange—An Jing clearly didn’t have the Water Spirit Root; why would there descend water thunder?
But he wasn’t keen on digging into that matter, as long as An Jing felt it was fine.
It wasn’t long before the two left the wilderness.
At that mont, the company team had also drawn conclusions.
“It’s extrely pure Water Elent Spiritual Light, Judgent Thunder, likely from the Three-Nine Cold Tribulation.”
A technical cultivator’s eyes shone as he reported to a distant leader: “We presu it’s a Heavenly Tribulation for a Foundation Establishnt of a cultivator with Heavenly Water Spiritual Root, practicing very high-rank Divine Skills and beneficial to the world and heaven, hence the Heavenly Dao bestowed Judgent Thunder.”
[Are you sure it’s a Heavenly Spiritual Root?
You’ll be held accountable if you report it] The company leader on the other end, who also had higher-ups to answer to, questioned: [With Water Spiritual Root Foundation Establishnt, this will significantly narrow the screening range]
“Highly likely it’s Heavenly Spiritual Root.” The technical cultivator insisted: “Such high purity of water thunder can’t be summoned without a Heavenly Spiritual Root… although it’s also possible that they practiced the Spirit Root Secret thod to artificially elevate to Heavenly Spiritual Root, but the initial data definitely rank over ‘8’.”
Without obtaining absolute assurance, the leader was sowhat dissatisfied, but he also knew that such matters couldn’t be guaranteed, and also cases with Water Spiritual Root data above 8 were rare, so he encouraged: [Continue the investigation, there might be other clues]
“Report!”
Another operations team had discovered clues: “Here lies a long-abandoned, processed communication base, seemingly belonging to the Guiyi Army!”
“Guiyi Army?
So close to here?” Shocked, the technical cultivator hurried to investigate.
Indeed.
Hidden beneath forests and mountain peaks, the communication base in the valley would be impossible to find unless one personally went in for a comprehensive scan.
It had been processed, with all critical systems data erased, abandoned for over thirty years, with plant roots and moss covering the surfaces of various instrunts.
But it did exist.
According to sources, the Tribulation Crosser had directly co here to undergo the tribulation, seemingly already aware of it.
“A Tribulation Cultivator from the Guiyi Army?
So close—is this provocation or so kind of signal?”
The technical cultivator spent a long ti investigating but couldn’t draw a conclusion, feeling a headache, but eventually chose to pass the headache to his superiors, reporting everything to the higher-ups, and awaited further instructions.
“Is there such a thing?” The leader also had a headache, he originally thought it was just a routine matter, perhaps a genius Loose Cultivator had broken through using resources discovered in Ancient Immortal Ruins, but if it involved the Guiyi Army, it would be troubleso.
After consideration, he decided to report to even higher superiors.
Soon, the news that Guiyi Army had a Tribulation Crosser spread widely, including to the Guiyi Army itself, which had spies within the company.
“Is there a Tribulation Cultivator from our Guiyi Army in Floating Dust Plains?
Should I investigate?”
Iron Hand was currently discussing interdiacy platform matters with Rusty Feather amidst escalating gang conflicts within Xuanye City, a reflection of intensified competition among their respective backing companies—an ultimately beneficial developnt for the Guiyi Army.
However, for their operatives on the ground, they also had to deal with increasingly aggressive gang mbers.
Recently, after their protected interdiary store was smashed by another gang, both Iron Hand and Rusty Feather were pondering whether to hire so independent rcenaries to ‘have a talk’.
While discussing whom to recruit, they received instructions from above.
“Check nothing.”
Promptly agreeing and ending the communication, Iron Hand turned to Rusty Feather straightforwardly: “They only approved five thousand Good Deeds for an annual budget, and we have to pay out of our own pockets, the Guiyi Army has been good to us, but what’s with this new General?
Doesn’t he know our real mission is to infiltrate Core Company and Four Taoist Schools?”
“There still is support from above.” Rusty Feather tied up his long hair, facing five screens, his eyes flickering with light: “Our channels are open because comrades from the Guiyi Army helped introduce us, right?
Big Brother has been a rcenary campaigning for years, pulling his weight, and that’s also because comrades support him with intelligence.”
“But investigating this ‘Guiyi Army genius’ is indeed not our job, Agou (Iron Hand’s real na), what do you think if we simply ‘hire’ Big Brother and them back?
These gangs are demanding more and more, we need to show them sothing.”
