The one-eyed man turned his head and saw that Wu Zheng had appeared out of nowhere, looking at Fang Mo’s corpse and saying, "Fang Mo, co out. I won’t take you lightly."
A ghostly figure slowly rose from Fang Mo’s body, bearing his very likeness.
The one-eyed man exclaid in surprise, "Primordial Spirit Ergence?"
Wu Zheng said coldly, "He never intended to survive, just wanted to pass on a ssage before he died."
Fang Mo didn’t speak, instead he suddenly darted out, trying to flee the alley and report the news.
Wu Zheng didn’t stop him, just watched indifferently as he stretched out his palm. A thread of purple fla began to blaze fiercely from the center of his palm, and then he pushed the fla into his Sea of Consciousness, onto his own Primordial Spirit.
With a puff!
As Wu Zheng attacked his own Primordial Spirit, the vigorous purple fla ignited on Fang Mo’s weakened Primordial Spirit, burning him to complete dissolution almost instantly, turning into a faint glimr that vanished between heaven and earth.
"Goodbye, old friend... It’s all for humanity."
...
Zhou Bai followed the images shown by his divination all the way, continuously using lazy energy points to heal his own spirit, until he finally arrived at a factory area 200 ters from Donghua City.
"Was Lin Muqing also brought here?"
Zhou Bai cautiously wove between buildings, trying his best to avoid every person he encountered, finally arriving at an abandoned warehouse.
"So they entered here in the end?"
Christina spoke in Zhou Bai’s Sea of Consciousness, "What do you think, Zhou Bai? Do you want to go in and scout first?"
"No need. If sothing happens to you, I’d still have to use Ti Reverse. It’s better we go in together, we can accomplish more that way," Zhou Bai checked his gemstone, "We have 30 minutes’ ti, enough for all sorts of things. Let’s just charge in; if there’s a problem, we’ll use Ti Reverse."
So, Zhou Bai climbed up the warehouse’s exterior wall and squeezed through a broken window into the warehouse.
He swept out his Primordial Spirit power and quickly discovered the entire warehouse was desolate, appearing as if it had been abandoned for a long ti.
At that mont, Christina said, "Zhou Bai, look at that pillar, doesn’t it seem a bit strange?"
"Indeed, this pillar seems out of place, as if it’s not serving any structural purpose."
After thinking it over, Zhou Bai used his divination to view the past images to understand what was going on.
"The pillar is hollow inside; they opened it sohow and then went inside."
Christina: "So what do we do? From the images, it seems they just waved their hands to open the passage."
"Then let’s force it."
Zhou Bai drew out the Shock Blade and quickly sliced open the pillar.
The pillar led straight down underground, and Zhou Bai jumped in, crawling down.
After descending more than ten ters, Zhou Bai found himself in a pipe and wrinkled his nose at the odors wafting through it, "A water pipe channel?"
Donghua City’s water and electrical systems were vast and complex. Had it not been for his ability to view past images from his divination, Zhou Bai would have had no chance of following the tracks from a day prior.
Thus, he continued using his divination, healing with lazy energy points along the way, and after more than an hour, finally arrived at a central location connected to a massive network of countless pipes.
Before he had gotten very close, he heard a multitude of construction noises coming from there, with the sounds of saws, hamring, and drilling overlapping each other, clearly indicative of so large apparatus being built.
Zhou Bai’s head peeked out from behind so iron railings, and what appeared before him was an image that made his eyes widen and his heart beat faster.
He saw countless pipes connected together, converging on a massive platform.
At the sa ti, more than a hundred Heavenly Demons had gathered on the large platform, their hands occasionally morphing into various tools, as they worked on constructing so kind of gigantic machine.
The scar-faced, lean man who had appeared in the past imagery and once searched Lin Muqing’s ho was standing on the platform, commanding everyone in the construction.
Seeing so many Heavenly Demons, Christina felt her scalp tingle, "Have there already been this many Heavenly Demons in Donghua City? What are they doing here?"
"I don’t know, but it’s definitely nothing good," Zhou Bai’s eyes scanned continuously, "Tina, do you see Lin Muqing?"
Christina replied, "No. She doesn’t seem to be here."
Just as Zhou Bai was carefully trying to delve deeper to see what else was going on, a series of red lights suddenly lit up not far behind him.
The Shadow Bearing Sword in Zhou Bai’s hand flared brightly, while his coat and shoes had already been sold for Sword Qi.
In the next mont, along with the hissing of incandescent sword light, the Shadow Bearing Sword carried a storm of force as it swept past the three Heavenly Demons behind him.
Amidst the hissing sword qi, the three Heavenly Demons were instantly sliced into pieces and fell to the ground, bursting into clusters of sparks.
Zhou Bai looked at the three Heavenly Demons in front of him in surprise, "Dead? That quickly?" He imdiately realized that not every one of the Heavenly Demons within Donghua City had been enhanced to be as powerful as Kong Zheng’s batch from last ti.
Cashing in the Heavenly Demon Fragnts of the three on the ground, he harvested 5,000 Sword Qi points and Zhou Bai’s eyes suddenly brightened, "Not bad, this harvesting of Sword Qi points."
At the sa mont, the Heavenly Demons who had been working on the platform suddenly stopped altogether, turned their heads, and in an instant, all looked in the direction of Zhou Bai.
The next mont, one after another, they let out roars and surged toward Zhou Bai like a tidal wave.
Christina shouted in his mind, "Not good! They’ve found us!"
Zhou Bai’s gaze hardened, "Afraid of what! First fight, then talk!"
Zhou Bai’s body moved slightly, and with the explosive sound from the steel plate under his feet, he tore through the air and charged directly into the crowd of Heavenly Demons.
Swoosh!
The Shadow Bearing Sword, with its water-like sword light, swept across, and two Heavenly Demons were instantly cut into more than twenty pieces.
Zhou Bai stirred up gusts of wind, and with lightning-fast sword light, swathes of Heavenly Demons fell like mowed wheat wherever he passed.
Zhou Bai felt surprised inside, ’These Heavenly Demons are so weak. At most, they have the strength of level 0 or level 1, right?’
Observing Zhou Bai reaping nurous Heavenly Demons like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, the scar-faced man who had once searched Lin Muqing’s ho let out a roar and blades of high-frequency Shock Blades grew from his hands, feet, knees, elbows, and back, like a bolt of black lightning, cutting straight to Zhou Bai.
With a clash, sparks flew from the collision of blade and sword, and sword qi filled the air, shattering the surrounding steel plates, water pipes, and ground, and leaving dozens of slash marks.
Zhou Bai’s gaze beca concentrated, ’This one is stronger than Kong Zheng. Comparable to the pinnacle of the Fourth Realm cultivator? No, perhaps he’s comparable to the strength of one who has just entered the Fifth Realm. A level-five Heavenly Demon?!’
anwhile, accompanied by two more roars, two more Heavenly Demons of similar form to the scar-faced man charged up, and seeing how they ripped through the air and shattered the ground with their movents, Zhou Bai knew they probably weren’t much weaker than the man with the scars.
Christina said, ’Zhou Bai, we can’t beat them! Use Ti Reverse now!’
Zhou Bai nodded, then shook his head, "No, we still haven’t figured out their purpose and Lin Muqing’s whereabouts."
