The long-haired white cat pounced towards Zhou Bai in mid-air, owing loudly, "owhahaha, I absolutely do not acknowledge you as a fated one! I will seize your body and snatch your luck!"
However, Zhou Bai had already guarded against the white cat. Layers of primordial spirit power were laid in mid-air, and he caught the opponent almost imdiately.
Then, the white cat was seen being slapped onto the ground with a thud, as if its tail was grabbed by an invisible giant hand, dragged up, and then fiercely thrown to the ground.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Alice, who was beside them, looked shocked as the white cat was slapped onto the ground repeatedly like a pancake. Even Ban Du in the nearby cultivation tank was dumbfounded, watching the white cat being smashed around.
Zhou Bai controlled the half-dead white cat as it floated slowly towards him. He sneered and said, "Hmph, I always knew there was sothing wrong with you. You still want to trick ?"
Despite his words, Zhou Bai felt a natural affinity towards the opponent, as if the other party would not truly harm him.
"You little scoundrel! I'll bite you to death!" The white cat bared its teeth and claws, trying to pounce on Zhou Bai, but it couldn't move an inch under the control of the primordial spirit power.
Zhou Bai used his primordial spirit power to control the white cat, carefully observing it. He could sense a weak primordial spirit power continuously emanating from the cat, but it seed no threat to him.
Alice ca closer and asked in astonishnt, "Zhou Bai, what is this thing?"
"Hmm..." Just as Zhou Bai was pondering how to explain, footsteps were heard approaching from the hallway.
He and Alice's faces changed simultaneously. Zhou Bai imdiately grabbed Alice and the white cat, hiding in a corner.
Feeling the white cat still struggling under the primordial spirit power, Zhou Bai grew anxious.
The next mont, he felt a swelling sensation between his eyebrows and saw the white cat's body blur, then transform into a wisp of white smoke, drilling into his forehead, startling him.
But there was no ti to deal with the cat now. He pulled Alice into a crouch in the shadows, watching Dr. Zhuang's figure slowly enter the laboratory.
'My current primordial spirit power is equivalent to the strength of four or five adults, but this Dr. Zhuang exudes an eerie aura. It's better not to confront him head-on.'
Cautiously hiding in the blind spot of the other party's vision, Zhou Bai wanted to lead Alice out of the laboratory first.
Suddenly, his body was pulled by Alice. He turned to see Alice leaning towards a low cabinet, reaching out to grab it.
Zhou Bai grew anxious, 'What is she doing!' Just as he was about to pull her away, he saw Alice point to the top of the low cabinet. She turned her head and mouthed sothing silently, as if trying to say sothing.
Zhou Bai looked at the top of the low cabinet, 'An electronic card? The electronic card for the main door?'
Unexpectedly, in this situation, Alice still rembered their goal and found the electronic card.
With a thought, Zhou Bai used his primordial spirit power to lift the card and delivered it to Alice's hand.
In his mind, the white cat's female voice sounded again, "You little scoundrel! Take my gemstone too."
Zhou Bai ignored the white cat's voice in his mind and was about to leave with Alice.
But the white cat kept shouting incessantly, "Idiot! Quickly get it!"
"That gem's importance far surpasses your imagination!"
Seeing that Zhou Bai still ignored it, the white cat reluctantly lied, "Without it, the auxiliary system cannot be activated at all!"
Zhou Bai frowned, patted Alice's shoulder, pointed towards the main door, signaling her to go first, while he slowly moved towards the direction the white cat ntioned.
Alice wanted to drag him away but couldn't hold Zhou Bai back.
The gemstone the white cat referred to was a thumb-sized blue cone, placed on a workbench not far behind Dr. Zhuang, seemingly taken out for research earlier.
Just as Zhou Bai approached within ten ters, intending to use his primordial spirit power to retrieve the gemstone, a loud banging noise was heard.
Zhou Bai looked up to see Ban Du in the cultivation tank forcefully banging on the glass, staring in his direction.
"Shh!" Zhou Bai saw Ban Du not stopping at all, even pointing in his direction. Without hesitation, he used his primordial spirit power to grab the gemstone, then turned and ran.
"What are you looking at! Let's go!"
Dr. Zhuang turned his head, looking coldly at the fleeing Zhou Bai and Alice.
Zhou Bai grabbed the stunned Alice, and his primordial spirit power surged again, lifting the surrounding tables and chairs, hurling them towards Dr. Zhuang.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
"Run! Run! Run!" the white cat yelled in Zhou Bai's mind, "That guy has so skills. These tricks won't kill him!"
Zhou Bai didn't easily trust the white cat's words and glanced back. He saw the tables and chairs he threw just floated in mid-air as they approached Dr. Zhuang, then returned to their original positions.
'He also uses primordial spirit power? And he seems stronger... more proficient...'
Zhou Bai's heart tightened, he didn't look back anymore. Instead, he pushed his primordial spirit power to the limit, sweeping Alice and himself into the air, darting away as if flying.
Over the past few days, Zhou Bai tried various uses of the primordial spirit power in private. The primordial spirit power was like an invisible arm, lifting Zhou Bai, able to reach up to the limit range of primordial spirit power, about ten ters.
This couldn't be considered flying, but at least it looked very much like flying now, and the speed was extrely fast.
Moreover, the fully unleashed primordial spirit power, like invisible tentacles, helped Zhou Bai sense his surroundings. Even in the pitch-black upper floors, he could still move forward at full speed.
Alice watched in astonishnt but restrained her curiosity and didn't ask. Instead, she held the electronic card tightly to her chest and asked, "Zhou Bai! What now? The teacher saw us!"
"We're leaving the base," Zhou Bai said while speeding forward, "Didn't you get the electronic card? Let's escape first."
Alice was slightly stunned, worriedly asking, "What about Ban Du and Elsa..."
"We'll find soone to rescue them after we get out. We need to ensure our own survival first," Zhou Bai said, "You heard it too, there's a rescue team outside."
"I know this might be tough for you, but it's our only option now."
Alice's face showed a look of struggle. For a child who grew up in the base and lived there for so many years, suddenly leaving everyone and completely escaping this familiar place was a huge psychological burden.
Although she always wanted to see the outside world, now that the day had co so abruptly, Alice felt a wave of panic.
She could only hold Zhou Bai tightly, suppressing the panic in her heart.
On the other side, Zhou Bai's face showed worry as he sped up. He didn't think Dr. Zhuang, who had operated the base for so many years, would let them leave so easily.
But to his surprise, they sprinted all the way, swiping the card and moving forward, unimpeded. Zhou Bai and Alice just opened the door of the first floor's buffer layer and really reached outside the base.
