#358 - The last resort!
"Commander! Wang Zheng is charging towards the D7 warzone border!"
"He's not turning, and he's not responding to calls!"
"Commander Ling Tong reports that Wang Zheng is still in a state of confusion and cannot control his desire to kill!"
On the aerospace carrier where Fu Jian was stationed, the huge command center suddenly became somewhat silent.
Everyone in the command center had witnessed how the black storm had swept away one Blade Beast nest after another, killing the Blade Beasts until they were completely defeated.
And now, the black storm was rushing towards the human military fortress without looking back, and it was expected to arrive near the fortress in half an hour.
The out-of-control black storm might directly kill all the humans in this fortress.
Just like killing those Blade Beasts.
Those from various human forces who were watching the excitement before, and were excited about the remarkable achievements of the black storm…
Their smiles gradually faded.
Faced with the various abilities displayed by the black storm, such as teleportation, soul devouring, etc., not only did the Blade Beasts not have enough means to deal with it, but they were also helpless!
The threat level of a humanoid creature with the same amount of psionic energy as a huge beast is several orders of magnitude higher!
According to the simulation calculations performed by the D5 supercomputing center, at least five SS-level psionicists, or a spiritual cultivator, are now needed to suppress the runaway Wang Ji Xuan.
But everyone knows;
It is impossible for the SS-level psionicists in the Psionic Energy Capital to take the risk of sacrificing themselves to stop the black storm;
And the only spiritual cultivator who can stop Wang Ji Xuan, Amy No. 5, has now lost contact.
Amina is rushing to the ancient civilization ruins to find a solution to the problem.
On the big screen of the command platform, the blue dot representing Wang Ji Xuan is flashing rapidly.
"It's the Blade Beasts!"
Dongfang Zhenghong next to him suddenly shouted:
"The Blade Beasts have built a passage! They are using Blade Beasts to fill the underground passage, guiding Wang Ji Xuan to charge towards the human fortress!"
Fu Jian decisively said: "Blow up this passage."
"This passage is about 1,300 meters underground. It will take a certain amount of time for our ground-penetrating missiles to launch and drill down…"
"Then blow it up, evacuate this fortress with all our strength, and don't give any chance to build a life passage in the rear."
"The Blade Beast swarm is charging underground, trying to cross this fortress! Damn it, they want to use this method to guide the black storm to attack humans!"
"Send in as many mechanical bodies as possible to build a defense line!"
Fu Jian immediately ordered.
He didn't explain much, after all, explaining this kind of thing would also affect Wang Ji Xuan's own image.
The Wang Daoshi in this state is hunting souls.
A countdown appeared on the screen of the command platform.
That was the countdown to the black storm's arrival at that military fortress, with only…
Twenty-three minutes left.
… …
"Peony, think of a way!"
Zheng Shiduo, who had already woken up, was pacing around the transport plane like an ant on a hot pot.
Wu Man and Ji Xiao and others, who had recovered somewhat, were already wearing pressure suits and full-coverage armor.
What can effectively restrain demonic powers is Buddhism;
They have been following in the sky above Wang Ji Xuan's route.
If the command headquarters can't give other solutions, then Ji Xiao and Wu Man will have to go down and try to awaken a trace of Wang Ji Xuan's sanity with Buddhism.
From the perspective of Wang Ji Xuan's first point of view, it is possible to see his state at the moment from the projection screens guarded by Peony.
That is…
Madness.
Madness intoxicated by killing.
The black energy around Wang Ji Xuan's body was already so deep that it was impossible to distinguish it. The first point of view was like playing a horror game, and one could only occasionally see the Blade Beast figures shaking outside.
To be precise, they were the broken limbs of the Blade Beasts.
Peony, who had been silent all the time, suddenly looked up at this moment: "The command platform has not given a battle plan."
Everyone's face sank when they heard the words.
Zheng Shiduo scratched his ears and cheeks anxiously: "What should we do? Should I try my taunting skill? The key is that if I taunt Brother Wang, and I'm really killed by Brother Wang, Brother Wang's lifelong reputation will be ruined more severely than the massacre of humans!"
This group of people suddenly had black lines all over their heads.
Ji Xiao glared and cursed angrily: "You're still fucking joking at this time!"
"I'm being serious!"
"Team Zheng's ability is okay, but the psionic energy level is not enough."
Peony crossed her arms, and curled her lips helplessly:
"Team Zheng's ability is essentially a charm ability aimed at males, but because he is male, this ability seems a bit useless, but it is inexplicably suitable.
"It's a pity that your current strength is not enough to affect the commander in this state.
"The commander's current willpower is several times that of usual."
"Then what should we do?"
"Look at the map."
Peony raised her hand and swiped, and a light curtain appeared in front of her, showing the underground structure map outside the military base, with bomb markers on it.
The transport plane began to accelerate with full thrust, and everyone staggered.
"We are now accelerating past and gathering outside the military fortress.
"The command platform now only has one idea, which is to cut off the guidance path built by the Blade Beasts with their lives as much as possible. If it cannot be cut off, or if the cut off is ineffective, then we will make a final fight outside the military fortress and use the power of Buddhist scriptures to awaken the commander.
"The military fortress has begun to evacuate, but it will not be able to evacuate much in twenty minutes.
"Ji Xiao will use his ability to take you guys with him later… is that okay?"
Everyone nodded at the same time.
"Even if we risk our lives!"
"Just do it!"
"I'll say something unpleasant, even if the Black Storm teacher kills this military fortress, according to the results he has achieved today, it can't be considered his fault anyway."
"The nature is different, Bao," Zheng Shiduo said helplessly.
Peony said: "No, the biggest problem is not this… It doesn't matter whether humans blame my commander or not, what matters is that my commander's hands cannot be stained with innocent blood, otherwise his path of cultivation will be completely fallen."
Everyone was silent again.
"I'll act alone."
Wu Man, who hadn't spoken all the time, said in a low voice:
"I'll try to interfere with the Blade Beast swarm below.
"My psionic energy is limited, and I haven't recovered much now, so I can't interfere with the Blade Beast swarm and chant scriptures at the same time.
"Has Sister Red Serpent come over?"
"She's already inside the military fortress."
"Okay, let her chant scriptures."
Wu Man walked to the tail cabin of the transport plane, swallowed a few pills into his stomach, and then decisively buckled the visor of his helmet and took a deep breath.
'Sir, it's time for me to redeem you.'
The boy jumped straight down in a flying fish, and the armored flight backpack sprayed out tail flames. It was as close to the surface as possible, and layers of ripples rippled around him.
Goo goo goo — —
The underground Blade Beast swarm was in chaos.
Inside the transport plane cabin, everyone seemed to suddenly have a backbone.
Peony began to mobilize the drone swarm to assist Wu Man;
Zheng Shiduo was left behind by everyone as today's trump card. If all the methods failed, then let him try.
What if it works?
Outside the porthole of the transport plane, a large number of missiles swayed their tail flames and fell from the sky.
At the same time;
High altitude here.
A golden, strangely shaped wooden boat was suspended in the white clouds.
Nielda Tamon watched the earth with his arms folded, his eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the kilometer-thick stratum and see the black shadow of the crazy killing.
Sabina held a crystal ball in both hands, closed her eyes and chanted softly, she was sensing and exploring.
"It's a bit scary."
Sabina frowned suddenly.
"What?"
"This kind of black storm is a bit scary," Sabina said in a low voice, "I have never been so uneasy as I am now, not even when facing the siege of the Pillar Blade Beast swarm."
"Yeah," Nielda Tamon said in a low voice, "I suddenly understand why it is said that there is a devil living in everyone's heart."
"What I heard seems to be that there is a god living in everyone's heart."
"It depends on how you understand it. As long as a god has humanity, he inevitably has bestiality."
Nielda Tamon pursed his lips slightly, which was considered a smile.
He said in a deep voice:
"If I understand the black storm's state in my own way, it should be considered as completely gathering his negative emotions and condensing them into a demon.
"If he can eliminate this demon, he can take a step forward.
"This may be an indispensable part of his cultivation."
Sabina asked: "Then are we going to take action?"
"We can't take action," Nielda Tamon said, "unless we are prepared to die with him."
"Why? Isn't this an opportunity to show goodwill to him and Amina? We don't have any initiative now, because Amina has already obtained the key to enter the ancient civilization."
"Because, it's not just you who feel uneasy."
The latest novel is first published on 69shuba.com!
Nielda Tamon looked down:
"According to normal logic, even a cultivator must balance the psionic energy in his body with the body's capacity limit.
"Too much psionic energy will break him.
"Unless, he can originally control more psionic energy.
"Amina's previous words revealed a piece of information that he once had a peak period… Now he may be re-cultivating.
"Combined with his current situation, where the psionic energy in his body is about to explode, but he can still control these psionic energies freely, his foundation is definitely stronger than he is now, and as long as we get close, we will become a gap for him to vent his inner demons, and he will fight us to the death."
Sabina nodded and continued to play with her crystal ball.
She said, "Even if the Black Storm kills some humans, the human civilization here wouldn't dare say anything. We can record it and use it as evidence to attack their character in the future."
"There's no need to do such a boring thing, Sabina."
Nielda Tamon's eyes flashed with helplessness.
Helplessness at Sabina's inability to grow in terms of overall perspective and vision.
A series of 'gu gu' sounds suddenly came from below.
Nielda Tamon's spirit perked up.
Gari Nono!
Gari Nono was issuing commands to the Blade Beast horde.
Nielda Tamon walked back and forth on the wooden boat, searching for Gari Nono's location.
In their eyes, this special Blade Beast was both crucial and insidious. They never easily showed themselves, hiding among the pillar Blade Beasts, acting as the brain of the entire Blade Beast race, and calling themselves 'individuals'.
The true individuals of the Blade Beast civilization.
But this time, it seemed that a young spirit slave below was using their ability to influence the Blade Beasts, preventing them from guiding the Black Storm towards that military fortress.
In desperation, Gari Nono actually issued the signal himself without going through the King-level Blade Beast…
Oh, no, there are no King-level Blade Beasts nearby anymore.
A godsend opportunity.
"Wait for me here!"
Nielda Tamon dropped those words, his figure leaped up, and he turned into a shooting star, smashing towards the rear of the Blade Beast territory. He was extremely fast, creating violent explosions on the ground.
Although he was only going to capture that Gari Nono;
It could be considered an official entry into the battle.
A few minutes later, Nielda Tamon returned to the high-altitude wooden boat, holding a 'giant fluttering moth' sealed by the power of light.
It was just a pity that although he had caught a Gari Nono, he could no longer have any positive impact on the situation below.
The Black Storm had already been attracted to the military fortress, and in three minutes, it would crash into the outer walls of the military fortress.
The minefield near the fortress had already begun to trigger continuously;
But this kind of underground explosion was lethal to large Blade Beasts, but for the Black Storm, which was the size of a normal person and covered in thick demonic energy, it had no effect at all.
… …
"Brother Wang is coming over soon!"
Zheng Shiduo's voice was constantly trembling.
In front of him, Ji Xiao, Ji Yale, and the other six had already swallowed pills, put on talismans, forcibly squeezing their spiritual energy, preparing the Buddhist scriptures with the best effect of purifying demonic energy.
Behind them, the personnel in the entire military fortress who did not have time to evacuate had already seen the 'transliterated' scriptures appearing on the screens everywhere, following the guidance of the character paper, constantly chanting.
It was just that the effect was minimal.
Mu Dan bit her lip tightly, she was constantly calculating, and also constantly thinking.
But whether it was calculation or thinking, she couldn't find a way to save the current situation. Her superior had no rationality at all, only wanting to hunt living beings and devour souls.
Was this the side effect of demonic cultivation that the superior had always talked about?
"We're going out!"
Ji Xiao gave a shout, and the six people rushed towards the fortress wall in front hand in hand. Under the traction of Ji Xiao's ability, they rushed out hundreds of meters, reaching the safe gap between the two minefields.
They each used their means, sat down, and began to chant the scriptures in unison.
The six people suddenly felt horrified, and the hairs on their bodies stood on end one by one;
They almost subconsciously looked in the direction of Wang Jixuan's arrival, through the stratum, through the rocks, as if they saw a huge, blood-colored skull surrounded by black air.
Ten thousand ghosts wailing, all living beings dying.
"Everyone! Let's give it a shot!" Ji Xiao shouted, "Concentrate on chanting!"
The six people put their hands together, desperately urging the spiritual energy in their bodies.
A phantom of a seated Buddha opened up in the earth, more than tens of feet high. The seated Buddha's eyes were originally closed, but at this moment, they slowly opened, and slowly pushed forward with a palm.
Rolling black air suddenly burst out!
The demonized Wang Daolang, who was originally escaping, suddenly stopped his figure, shattered the rock layer, and burst out with streams of black air. A black dragon, already with a dragon head, roared out, and faced the palm of the seated Buddha head-on.
Bang!
The earth was shaking, and the souls of humans and Blade Beasts seemed to suffer a heavy blow.
The six people chanting the scriptures lowered their heads and vomited blood at the same time.
Ji Xiao's expression changed drastically.
The six of them working together couldn't even block a single blow!
"Retreat quickly!"
At the critical moment, Ji Xiao made the right decision, avoiding maximizing the loss on his side, forcibly urging his ability, while vomiting blood, he led the other five people to rush to the surface using escape techniques.
Wang Jixuan's figure brushed past the six of them.
A pair of cold eyes swept over, and the six people felt their scalps go numb, and their heartbeats slowed by three or four beats.
Almost a heart attack!
In the blink of an eye, Wang Jixuan rushed to the outer layer of the military fortress.
Inside the fortress, Zheng Shiduo was shivering all over. He, who should have used his ability, couldn't open his mouth at this moment no matter what.
Mu Dan gently pursed her lips, closed her eyes, opened her arms, and waited for the arrival of her master.
On the surface of the military fortress, Wu Man seemed to land steadily, but the teenager, who was already close to exhaustion, staggered a few steps and fell to the ground, feeling the location of that demonic energy, and murmured in a low voice:
"Sir, don't…"
"Hmm—"
Chanting sound.
The suddenly appearing chanting sound turned into strange fluctuations, seeping into the underground from the surface.
The figure rushing forward wrapped in demonic energy suddenly stopped.
Wu Man looked up at the source of the chanting sound.
Gao Huating, who had not yet been able to fall from the transport plane, was wearing a pure white gauze dress, her fingers tightly clasped in a prayerful gesture, completely immersed in humming.
Wu Man suddenly heard Wang Jixuan's shouts in his earphones.
Before this shout, was Wang Jixuan's breathing, which was sometimes heavy and sometimes disappeared.
"Ah—protect Gao Huating! I want to devour her now! Don't let her get close to me!"
It's working!
Gao Huating continued to chant, completely disregarding the life and death tribulation she was about to face.
Suddenly.
In Wu Man's earphones, Wang Jixuan's earphones, the communication channel that had previously been connected by Mu Dan, heard that shout.
"Wang Zheng!"
Yes, Ling Tong?
Tens of kilometers away, in the fighter plane that was rapidly diving towards the ground, Ling Tong grabbed a jade talisman and crushed it, and then a mechanical alloy knife popped out of her left mechanical arm and stabbed it fiercely under her ribs.
Blood splattered, and Ling Tong shouted in a hoarse voice:
"Save me…you said you would come to save me…"
Wang Jixuan suddenly turned around in front of the thick wall of the military fortress!
He in the black air looked up at the mid-air, behind him was the six-armed Asura suddenly condensed from demonic energy.
His nostrils fluttered slightly, and his figure suddenly soared into the sky, crashing into the fighter plane where Ling Tong was like a comet.
Ling Tong endured the severe pain caused by the injury, and pulled the joystick violently with both hands. The fighter plane almost leveled off close to the ground, and immediately began to accelerate beyond its load.
