Chapter 417: Easy Annihilation (Part 2)
Complaints aside, the members of the Dark Sect still need to be killed.
While cursing, the four-person team viciously attacked the Dark Sect members, with magic treasures, formations, talismans, and other items flying indiscriminately, leaving the two members of the Dark Sect in complete disarray.
Wang Jixuan watched carefully from the side.
He multitasked, with his main body observing the fighting techniques of these cultivators, and spotting the flaws they revealed during battle.
The alien soul was carefully digesting the Nascent Soul that was devoured.
Although those memories were distorted, damaged, and extremely fragmented, some vague, impressive keywords could still be found.
For example, 'Tianluo', which should be the organization the four-person team belonged to.
Tianluo and the Dark Sect were locked in endless conflict.
However, apart from this, Wang Jixuan had not gathered any further insights.
Wang Jixuan had a sudden understanding;
If the issue with the Immortal's Finger couldn't be resolved, he could later rely on the power of Tianluo and the Dark Sect to try and break into the Immortal Gate.
As for joining Tianluo or the Dark Sect, it made no difference to him.
As for the Dark Sect members who died today...
This was the doing of the Tianluo four-person team, nothing to do with the honest and righteous Wang Jixuan.
...
Hei Yao was hiding with his men outside the atmosphere.
His plans had failed again.
Originally, Hei Yao's plan was comprehensive, including how to attack the city to create chaos, and how to rescue the remaining members of the ambushed 'Nine-Person Team'.
But before he could display his prowess, the Black Storm taught him a lesson.
Formation.
Yes, the 'dynamic large array' composed of hundreds of mechanical bodies as the array base, and the four cultivators who jumped out from the shadows, made Hei Yao give up on rescuing these nine people.
Hei Yao had heard from the Nine-Person Team that there was an opposing force also looking for the Black Storm.
The goals of the two sides were not the same.
The Nine-Person Team wanted to wipe out the Black Storm and gain the Black Storm's memories to investigate the secret of Black Storm's survival in ancient times.
Their opposing force wanted to capture and imprison the Black Storm, potentially using the Black Storm for their purposes.
Hei Yao also heard from the Nine-Person Team that now, whenever their two forces met, they would have a major battle, with the Nine-Person Team often winning.
No need for further explanation regarding their strength.
But today, on this 'unlucky year' blue planet, the Nine-Person Team seemed to have hit a major roadblock.
And a big one at that.
Hei Yao observed the battle from afar with his Spiritual Energy Circuit, watching as the Nine-Person Team lost four people, and seeing the Black Storm surface, swallowing one person's 'soul'.
Hei Yao frowned deeply.
In this scenario, he had no choice but to ensure his own safety.
However, Hei Yao also had a plan.
He found a long-unused Spiritual Energy Circuit and began 'recording' what his avatar was currently witnessing.
The footage recorded through this Spiritual Energy Circuit came with its own anti-counterfeiting features.
He ordered his men to prepare the space transmission array, ready to retreat immediately if the situation turned unfavorable.
Meanwhile, Hei Yao was already pondering how to deal with Wang Zheng's endless tactics.
He had to admit being technically suppressed.
"Leader," an old man asked, "shouldn't we step in to help? Only five of those mysterious people are left down below."
"We don't know how much combat power is hidden in the shadows on the opponent's side."
Without the mood to make facial expressions, Hei Yao replied with a stern face:
"They got into this trap themselves with their arrogance, there's no need for us to make unnecessary sacrifices."
"Does anyone have a way to counter the Black Storm's formation?"
The old men looked at each other, honestly shaking their heads.
Hei Yao sighed softly.
Seeing that he had enough 'recorded' footage, Hei Yao decided not to wait any longer and gestured with his hand.
"Let's go, retreat first, before the Black Storm gets the idea to trap us here."
"Leader, really not rescuing them?"
"Don't do things you're not sure of, wait for your opponents to make mistakes, that's the unfailing secret to laughing last."
Hei Yao snapped his fingers and quietly left this airspace with several of his men, revealing no more Qi.
Moreover, Hei Yao instructed them not to rush activating the transmission array; they should fly further away to avoid any detectable fluctuations before leaving.
Come quietly, go quietly.
As if they only came to make a fleeting appearance.
And the facts proved that Hei Yao's intuition was indeed sharp.
They had just left the outer space range of Earth when the large array on the surface erupted with rolling black Qi, and the remaining five members of the Dark Sect frantically attacked in all directions.
The robotic large array immediately changed, with a defensive array added to the trapped array.
Seizing the gap during the array transformation, the leading Dark Sect 'leader' shouted angrily:
"How long are you going to watch the show!"
"Help me break free! I'll help you join the Dark Sect!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Jixuan raised an eyebrow, and the alien soul hiding in the shadows began searching immediately. With a slight turn of his mind, he suddenly remembered something and ordered Mu Dan to activate the planetary large array immediately.
Mu Dan was hiding in the underground control room of Cloud City—the previous hiding place of He Ruli.
Relying on her strong computational reserves, she had almost taken over the entire array of Cloud City, fully energizing the Spiritual Energy Group of Cloud City.
Eighty years later, the planetary large array reappeared!
However, this time, the planetary large array was not to repel external enemies, but to attempt to prevent them from escaping.
Unfortunately, Hei Yao's avatar had already fled ahead of time.
Wang Jixuan searched for a long time afterward without any results either.
No, it couldn't be said that there were no results.
On the battlefield on the surface, the four Tianluo members, once again rested and rehydrated, looked up at the light barrier that appeared in the sky, their foreheads covered in black streaks.
They were feeling a bit numb.
