#473 - Black and white come together!
"Have you got any news about those dark cultists?"
"Sir, we haven't detected their energy fluctuations yet."
"How is the defense coming along?"
"It's in the preliminary stages of completion, and the planetary defense system has also been activated. Although the Allied Forces are willing to cooperate with our military operations, the enemy we're facing this time isn't the Blade Beast. Therefore, Commander-in-Chief Ling Tong hasn't approved the Allied Forces joining the battle. We're already mobilizing the mechanical legions as much as possible."
Peony paused and continued to report:
"Sir, aren't we relocating this time?"
"Of course, we're relocating, but only after we snipe them once."
Wang Jixuan's main body looked up, temporarily putting down the carving knife and array base materials in his hand.
He looked out the porthole.
Faint golden halos had already begun to appear behind the giant lobster.
The Blade Beast swarm subordinate to that Pillar Blade Beast was imitating it.
The scene was indescribably strange.
Daoist Wang shook his head, roused his spirits, and looked at Peony, who had changed back into her maid outfit.
Wang Jixuan explained, "If we can avoid a fight, I don't want to fight either. But now we have to show the Dark Church a thing or two, let them know that the rogue immortals of the mortal realm and the Dark Church followers can't pose a threat to me. If they want to come, they should send experts from the Immortal Realm."
"Uh, if it's Immortal Realm experts, wouldn't we be finished?"
"That depends on the contest between the Heavenly Daos of both sides."
Wang Jixuan narrowed his eyes slightly:
"From the moment the Dark Church's Heavenly Dao issued a kill order against me, I've been looking for a way to escape this chaotic situation.
"I thought of going to that Senior White Bone with a desperate attempt to seek medical advice from the past stone.
"That gave me a path—to develop a force and fight my way to the Immortal Realm.
"But now, we must solve the most fatal problem, which is that everyone wants to come and take a swipe at me."
Peony looked enlightened: "I roughly understand. In the Immortal Realm, Tianluo and the Dark Church are evenly matched, and both sides can restrain each other's experts. Shao Lao has mentioned it many times. So, we only need to deter these rogue immortals and other miscellaneous experts of the Dark Church in the mortal realm, and we can pour cold water on the crazy Dark Church followers."
"That's about it."
Wang Jixuan snapped his fingers:
"Continue with the arrangements. Try to stay away from this planet, and don't involve the people."
Peony said, "I can only say I'll try my best."
Wang Jixuan asked, "Aren't they only sending a few dozen people? Can they even attack this planet?"
"Shao Lao also said that there seems to be someone from the Immortal Realm among them, but it's uncertain whether it's a Celestial Immortal. If it's below a Celestial Immortal, Shao Lao's clone can handle it."
Peony said worriedly:
"I still don't have clear combat data for existences above Immortals.
"The transformation from mortal to immortal is a metamorphosis, and the energy level may increase a hundredfold, which could cause severe geological disasters on a habitable planet.
"The asteroid 'Gentle' released by Obsidian once collided with Earth, causing decades of climate disasters. Later, we developed a planetary climate control system, which took twenty years to barely restore the climate.
"The energy spent during this period is incalculable.
"If an Immortal's strike has the same combat power as that asteroid, then we can't control the scope of the battlefield."
Wang Jixuan was silent for a few seconds.
He said, "Then let's research another plan and see if we can choose a more remote battlefield."
"Okay."
Peony agreed and closed her eyes to start calculating.
Wang Jixuan looked out the porthole. His main body continued to work on the restrictions in silence, and most of his mind went to the other soul.
Gathering the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, gathering the power of the wishes of living beings.
All beings are equal, and all things can become Buddhas.
'So, what is the benefit of dancing in shackles? Is it peace of mind? Or those unimportant false names?'
Wang Jixuan quietly thought about this question.
He actually had an answer.
It was for the Dao he pursued in his heart, for the fact that he himself was once a weak living being.
… …
Time passed second by second.
Wang Jixuan's refining progress on the third puppet was getting faster and faster.
The huge Pillar Blade Beast body began to shrink circle by circle, and the spiritual power within it increased bit by bit.
During this process, some bizarre phenomena also occurred.
The group of subordinate little brothers of the third puppet, this Pillar Blade Beast, in the process of imitating the Pillar Blade Beast's meditation and enlightenment, a small group of core high-level Blade Beasts had begun to undergo mutations.
They had some light golden patterns on their bodies;
The periphery of their crystal cores was wrapped in layers of Buddhist light;
Even, they could echo each other with the Pillar Blade Beast, as if they had become the Pillar Blade Beast's believers, followers, and supporters, providing the Pillar Blade Beast with the power of faith.
When Wang Jixuan discovered this situation, he was indeed a little shocked.
The plasticity of the Blade Beasts was really high.
Gradually, Wang Jixuan also sensed a slightly urgent atmosphere.
The human fleet was designing an ambush;
Several Pillar Blade Beast swarms that had already been controlled by Wang Jixuan were pushing the 'corpses' of Pillar Blade Beasts, heading towards the wider starry sky, gradually moving away from this tan planet.
Shao Lao constantly switched back and forth between closing his eyes to inquire about news and opening his eyes to relay the situation.
The infighting on the Immortal Realm side was intensifying, but everything was under the control of the Heavenly Daos of both sides, and temporarily no experts 'leaked' to the main battlefields of the lower realm.
The war in the Youbao Realm was gradually coming to an end.
Hall Master Yin Lin was leading a group of experts, chasing the group of dark cultists towards this realm, which was also one of the reasons why Wang Jixuan could not directly relocate at the moment.
If he could cooperate with Hall Master Yin Lin from the inside and outside to form a pincer attack against this group of dark cultists, he could occupy more advantages.
They could not grasp the specific locations of the experts from the Dark Church and Tianluo in real time.
'The storm is about to break.'
Daoist Wang was slightly distracted, his primordial spirit and other soul were in the same frequency of daze, and a sense of helplessness arose in his heart.
It was indeed quite helpless.
The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop;
He had just enjoyed more than ten months of stable cultivation, and his own gains were huge. Whether it was refining weapons, cultivating the Dao, or finding a backer in the Immortal Realm, these were great benefits to him.
He had already seen the hope of becoming an immortal.
But unexpectedly, it was a sudden change. Peony deduced the rhythm of his resonance with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth when he generated insights, which aroused the attention of the Heavenly Dao.
Since then, it had been out of control.
The Dark Church's Heavenly Dao didn't play by the rules and directly issued a kill order;
Tianluo and the Dark Church, who had accumulated deep grievances, fought each other. The balance and order that could have been maintained were almost broken overnight.
Wang Jixuan seemed to be able to see layers of shock waves released from the Immortal Realm towards the myriad realms.
He was only affected by a small part of this shock wave;
And he happened to be the core figure who triggered these shocks;
The pressure and powerlessness during this period were beyond the understanding of others.
It was already very difficult for Wang Jixuan to withstand the pressure and not be crushed by it.
Now he was even planning how to fight back… …
Although it was a bit like hitting a stone with an egg, in his opinion, it was better than doing nothing.
Ding ding!
The familiar notification sound rang, Wang Jixuan's main body paused, and took out the communicator that he had never discarded from his arms.
[Ling Tong (Light of Justice): Are the enemies very strong?]
[Wang Zheng (Unknown State): It's okay. The problem I'm encountering at this stage is just entering the struggle between extremely high power levels too early.]
[Ling Tong: Oh… … I don't quite understand, but I can feel that you've encountered a relatively big problem.]
[Wang Zheng: This time, I came back to deal with the Pillar Blade Beasts, so I rushed back. I'll try to avoid appearing in this star field in the future.]
[Ling Tong: Based on myself, I'm willing to fight alongside you until I die by your side. But based on my position, I may be more accepting of your current decision.]
[Wang Zheng: I understand.]
He looked out the window.
The feeling transmitted from the other soul was strange and comfortable.
[Wang Zheng: Don't worry about my safety either. At the very least, I still have two escape routes.]
[Ling Tong: I have a blind trust in you.]
[Wang Zheng: In that case, you've trusted the wrong person this time.]
Ling Tong took a long time to reply.
[Ling Tong: Okay, although I can't help you with anything, I still hope you can cheer up. Also, although the two of us can't continue to interact on the path of partners, you can come to me anytime, anywhere to confide in me. We are the best partners, spiritual lovers. I will leave a place in my tomb for my one and only lover from beginning to end.]
[Wang Zheng: Are you here to put pressure on me?]
[Ling Tong: Of course not. I just want to share your pressure. However, if pressure can offset pressure, it's not impossible.]
[Wang Zheng: I surrender to you, Commander.]
The latest novels are at 69shuba.
[Ling Tong: Reject prisoners. You need to go to a wider world. Don't give up pursuing your dreams because of some setbacks. Otherwise, my sacrifice and decisiveness will make me feel like I made the wrong decision.]
[Wang Zheng: Morale is high, Commander!]
[Ling Tong: Good luck, I'm going to keep an eye on the movements of the Blade Beast swarm. By the way, here's some good news, Peony may not have told you, Gari Nuo has expressed his unwillingness to conflict with us, and the Blade Beast swarm has also actively closed some of the opened interstellar gates.]
[Wang Zheng: Hmm? This doesn't seem like their vengeful personality.]
[Ling Tong: They should have smelled an invincible force, and as far as I know, the Blade Beasts have already posthumously recognized Sanjie Langlangzi as the ancestor of origin.]
Wang Jixuan: … …
[Wang Zheng: What about Obsidian's movements?]
【Ling Tong: We haven't had Obsidian's location information, so we can't observe. Mudan has already notified Nielda Tamon. Nielda Tamon is gathering spiritual cultivators to rush to this airspace to ambush. They should be able to help a bit.】
【Wang Zheng: If the enemy has Immortal-level combat power, spiritual cultivators are just delivering food. Their strength is generally limited below the Integration Realm.】
【Ling Tong: How is the progress between you and Amina? Why can't I see any intimacy between you two?】
【Wang Zheng: Wait, how did this question suddenly take a fatal turn?】
【Ling Tong: Use pressure to offset pressure.】
【Wang Zheng: It's alright, it's just that there's a lack of that feeling of supporting each other from humble beginnings.】
【Ling Tong: Okay, I understand. I hope you take care of yourself and don't let down a suitable person who can accompany you through the long years. Do not reply to work matters.】
Daoist Wang couldn't help but sigh. Wasn't this what she wanted to ask?
Besides, he didn't say anything else.
Wang Jixuan rubbed his nose, stored the communicator close to his body, and looked at Amina, who was helping with the formation base not far away, with a guilty conscience.
Speaking of which, Amina asked him to think of a 'more cultivation world-like' name last time, but Wang Jixuan hadn't replied yet.
Should he give her a Daoist name to eliminate the sense of separation?
The Daoist narrowed his eyes and smiled, took a deep breath, and continued to concentrate on carving the formation base while sitting in meditation.
"Commander!"
Mudan suddenly said:
"We have detected two spatial fluctuations, in two different areas!"
"One is on Earth, and the other is in the Blade Beast's main control starfield!"
Two?
Wang Jixuan's spirits lifted.
Mudan then said: "According to the signs before the Dark Disciples appeared last time, it is estimated that the enemy will arrive within six hours!"
"Can you determine whether it's the Dark Disciples or the Sky Luo on Earth's side?"
"Not really... We can't contact Hall Master Yin Lin for the time being. He is chasing after that group of Dark Disciples at full speed."
Wang Jixuan raised his hand and rubbed his brow.
"Disperse as much as possible on Earth's side. If it's the Dark Disciples, give them my location directly."
"Okay!"
Mudan reminded: "The number of formation bases you need is basically sufficient."
"Okay, I understand."
Wang Jixuan dropped the materials in his hand, just about to stand up coolly and say 'Prepare for battle,' but then felt it was a pity to waste the materials, so he picked up the formation base and continued carving.
"You and Professor Shen cooperate, start the formation test and calculation in half an hour, and I want to activate this formation within three hours."
"Yes!"
......
【Distance from the Tuqian Star Victory: 9 hours.】
Wang Jixuan had the Earth and pro-Earth civilization spiritual cultivators who had arrived here line up in two rows, stopping behind each of them.
He was unlocking the core circuit restrictions of these spiritual cultivators.
Increasing their combat power a little was better than nothing.
Although Wang Jixuan didn't expect these spiritual cultivators to play a crucial role.
"How is the evacuation situation on Earth's side?"
Mudan reported from the side: "It's basically complete, but the shelters are all old fortresses, which is just a temporary solution."
Wang Jixuan nodded without saying much, continuously pushing his palms and forming seals.
Most of these spiritual cultivators were a little excited.
They thought they had reached their limit, but now they had more room to grow.
Amina brought Nielda Tamon and appeared in the cargo hold of this supply ship. Nielda Tamon strode forward and said in a buzzing voice:
"The place where the second spatial fluctuation appeared is very likely to be the hiding place of Obsidian and his group!"
Nielda Tamon said excitedly:
"We can take the initiative to attack there. Obsidian may have colluded with powerful enemies from outside the starfield! Those so-called Shadow Disciples!"
"It's Dark Disciples," Mudan corrected.
Wang Jixuan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Are you sure?"
"Mostly sure."
"Don't be mostly sure," Wang Jixuan smiled wryly, "Spatial fluctuations have also appeared on the Earth's surface. One group is friendly and the other is the enemy."
Nielda Tamon shrugged: "Then I don't know. In this situation, either draw lots or pray."
Mudan said from the side: "Commander, the Super Transformation Array is fully prepared!"
"Give me fifteen more minutes!"
Wang Jixuan pushed his hands forward at the same time, and the core circuits in the remaining spiritual cultivators were activated simultaneously.
As the creator of the core circuit, he was already familiar with this kind of unblocking.
Hopefully, the Super Transformation Array can operate smoothly.
Although who knows what kind of monster the pillar Blade Beast will turn into if it transforms successfully.
......
【Distance from the Tuqian Star Victory: 6 hours.】
On the Earth's surface, beams of light bloomed out of thin air, and a total of eighteen figures smashed onto the ground.
Yin Lin, wearing a green robe, frowned and observed everywhere.
The swarm of drones rising from all directions hadn't even revealed their weapon bays before they began to fall like clouds.
"Hall Master, this is Earth."
Qin Mianrou, the Great Ascension Realm elder who had been driven away by the spiritual cultivators before, muttered with a hint of resentment at this moment.
She was also unlucky. She used her top-grade treasure for traveling to rush back here to report the news, and then caught up with the Sky Luo's full-scale attack on the Dark Disciples' base. After a fight, she rushed over here again.
The spirituality of the treasure is almost exhausted!
"Okay," Yin Lin said, "Everyone, don't delay, hurry up and find..."
"Please come this way."
Mudan's voice rang out from all directions:
"My commander is waiting for your support. The Dark Disciples may arrive on the battlefield before you."
Yin Lin agreed decisively, leaned back, sat in the wheelchair, and panted coarsely with a pale face.
