#374 - Get involved
Wang Jixuan looked at the mirror in front of him.
Although he really wanted to attend the appointment in a long robe, the outfit recommended by Ling Tong did look more impressive.
Camouflage pants, Martin boots, and a belt cinched his flat, muscular abdomen, while his upper body was covered in a tactical vest and camouflage pressure-resistant clothing.
If he had a field helmet, he would definitely look like a modern armed soldier.
Ling Tong still had several meetings to attend today, and it was already past her scheduled departure time, but she was still worried and kept reminding him from the side.
Be careful in everything;
Never act impulsively;
This trip is mainly for probing, there is still enough time;
And so on.
Wang Jixuan listened with a smile, feeling inexplicably grounded in his heart, but his brow would occasionally itch, and some impatient emotions would inevitably arise in his heart.
This was also a downside to his current Demonic Lord state of mind.
After much discussion, there were a total of six people on this trip.
Amina was responsible for opening the door and providing backup as position number one;
Gao Huating naturally had to go;
Wu Man and Ji Xiao went together as muscle, and more people would be better to look after each other;
Zheng Shiduo played the role of strategist, and could offer sarcastic remarks when necessary, lest our side be unable to out-scold the other side.
In terms of venomous tongues, taking Mudan would actually be enough;
However, Mudan was now connected to the autonomous mechanical system of the D5 integrated war zone, and Wang Jixuan, as usual, had 'ferried' his Mahayana remnant soul from his body and entrusted it to Mudan for safekeeping.
In fact, it wasn't just the Mahayana remnant soul.
With the Demonic Lord's Dao Heart, Wang Jixuan's comprehension of the Dragon Python Devouring Heaven Art was now like a tiger with wings.
He hadn't been idle for the past half month, preparing not only a large amount of supplies, but also managing to create a split soul.
Although Wang Jixuan now really wanted to peel open the Earth's shell and pull out that ancient old hag to ask what kind of conspiracy she was plotting;
He had only changed his temperament, not lost his mind.
At this stage, it was better to prepare more, so as not to be too passive when the time came.
Amina's urging voice came from outside the door: "It's time to go."
Daoist Wang opened his arms to Ling Tong.
Ling Tong smiled and stepped forward, giving him a tight hug, and incidentally gave a final reminder: "Don't easily trust those non-human creatures."
"I know," Wang Jixuan smiled, "They are not of our kind, their hearts must be different; this is a war of civilizations."
The Daoist Priest placed a kiss on her forehead, then turned and left.
Ling Tong suddenly had the urge to follow.
But she restrained the emotions that were about to surge, and just watched quietly, seeing Wang Jixuan leave the large container.
Outside the door, the six-person special operations team was already on standby in the shuttle.
Wang Jixuan gestured, jumped into the back seat of the shuttle, and his gaze swept over the now quite large barracks.
"Brother Wang, is there anything else to prepare?" Zheng Shiduo asked.
"Where's Mudan?"
"She's over at the transport plane."
"Okay, let's go."
Wang Jixuan responded simply and began to close his eyes to rest.
He and Mudan rarely acted separately, but this time they had to separate. With Mudan guarding his Mahayana remnant soul, Wang Jixuan had enough retreat.
When their team boarded the plane, Mudan would rush to Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian's side.
This could be considered betting the armed forces of all mankind to protect a wisp of Wang Jixuan's remnant soul.
"Brother Wang."
On the way, Zheng Shiduo deliberately asked:
"If that ancient civilization's remnant spirit makes demands that are too excessive, we'll just have Little Huating cry in front of her, how about that?"
Gao Huating blinked.
She was just about to agree, after all, she didn't know how to do much besides sing to appease souls, but before the words could leave her mouth, Zheng Shiduo was knocked on the head by Wang Jixuan.
Daoist Wang scolded angrily: "That's all the ambition you have!"
Ji Xiao hurriedly said: "Exactly!"
Daoist Wang took out a dagger and handed it to Gao Huating.
"Crying is useless, you have to threaten to die."
Gao Huating's pretty face turned pale.
Ji Xiao's waist almost snapped.
Gao Huating still took the dagger, and a sense of conviction ignited in her eyes!
"Uh, just kidding."
Although Wang Jixuan said so, he didn't mean to take back the dagger.
The group joked and laughed as the transport plane headed towards the entrance and exit of the ancient civilization.
Before they even reached the vicinity of that area, Amina in the corner suddenly changed her expression and looked up at Wang Jixuan.
"Nilda Tamon is here."
"Oh?" Wang Jixuan raised an eyebrow.
He didn't need to ask, looking at Amina's expression, he knew that Amina hadn't notified Nilda Tamon.
This guy was an uninvited guest.
"Is he alone?"
"Yes," Amina said, "He's waiting for us ahead, should we let him in to talk?"
"Let him in, open the rear hatch when we get closer."
Wang Jixuan smiled:
"I still have a pretty good impression of this strong man.
"Compared to the likes of Old Sophie and Wanda, he's quite principled."
The crew quickly carried out the order.
Nilda Tamon, wearing a golden battle armor, soon appeared in front of Wang Jixuan.
Daoist Wang raised his hand to invite Nilda Tamon to nod and sat opposite Wang Jixuan.
There were only a few of them in the transport plane cabin, which looked quite spacious.
"You're going to that ancient civilization, right?"
Wang Jixuan asked: "Where did you get the news from?"
"I've been waiting for you near here recently," Nilda Tamon said in a deep voice, "There's residual spatial energy in an area ahead, it's not hard to find, and the time for the Blade Beast army to open the star gate is getting closer and closer."
Wang Jixuan nodded: "You want to come along?"
"That's right," Nilda Tamon said, "Name your conditions."
"Make an oath that you will not attack us after entering the ancient civilization ruins, and then, all the information you obtain on this trip must be shared with us."
Wang Jixuan said solemnly:
"As a sign of respect for you, we will also share the information we obtain.
"But I cannot tell you about my personal secrets."
"Okay."
Nilda Tamon looked at Amina.
Amina muttered softly: "You negotiate the conditions, I'll make all the oaths."
Wang Jixuan said with a smile: "I don't have such a mature control over the core circuit, and I didn't even bring Old Sophie's circuit with me."
"Alright."
Amina did as she was told.
Nilda Tamon quickly made a core circuit oath with her.
The transport plane continued to head steadily towards the designated area.
Nilda Tamon asked: "Have you seen that witch?"
"I've seen her," Wang Jixuan said, "Not a pleasant memory."
"She contacted me and Sabrina about ten days ago."
Nilda Tamon did not hide anything:
"She said that you are in great danger now, but she has a way to restrain your demonic power. If we want to obtain the path of immortal cultivation, we can cooperate with her."
Wang Jixuan: … …
Good heavens, is this Ye Zi two-faced?
Is this how much she loves her big brother?
Everyone looked over.
Wang Jixuan shrugged: "I absolutely only did things in bed with her."
"That's good, that's good," Zheng Shiduo patted his chest, but soon realized something, "Things in bed…"
Nilda Tamon asked: "What do you want to get from this trip to the ancient civilization?"
"The truth," Amina replied simply.
"The truth?"
"Yes," Wang Jixuan said, "Things are a bit complicated, involving some of my personal issues, but I think these things will definitely have answers soon."
Nilda Tamon said: "If there is a chance to save the Spirit Cultivation civilization, I hope to get your help. I don't have much capital to negotiate terms with you now, but this will earn my friendship."
Zheng Shiduo chuckled.
In other words, he just wants to rely on his face to get favors?
"Okay," Wang Jixuan nodded in agreement, "Just because of you as a person."
Nilda Tamon didn't say anything more, looked at Wang Jixuan seriously, and then began to close his eyes to rest.
Amina took the initiative to go to the cockpit to observe the terrain and point out the direction.
About half an hour later, the transport plane began to slow down.
An hour later, Wang Jixuan and the others were fully armed and equipped to the teeth, and entered a winding downward passage.
The newest and most complete novels are at Six 9 Books Bar! First released!
Amina said: "Actually, I can put you in subspace, and then I can directly turn into a butterfly and enter the first teleportation point underground."
"No need," Wang Jixuan said, "Everyone should recognize the way."
Amina didn't insist much.
The path to enter the ancient civilization was not a straight line. There were a total of three teleportation areas, each with a secret door.
She still had the key to enter the ancient civilization, and led everyone smoothly to the deepest part of the underground.
… …
There was no expected high temperature and high pressure;
Each teleportation area was surrounded by spiritual energy similar to large arrays and barriers.
"After passing through this door ahead, we will be in the ruins of the ancient civilization, the City in the Clouds."
Amina reminded:
"I'm also a little unsure now.
"If all the guesses we've made are true, then after you go in, you will definitely encounter trouble.
"Wang Zheng, are you sure you want to take the risk?"
Nilda Tamon looked at Wang Jixuan with his hands behind his back.
Daoist Wang lowered his head and thought.
He never liked being long-winded, and now in this state of Dao Heart, he preferred to cut the Gordian knot quickly.
Gao Huating suddenly raised her hand.
She was also wearing a full-coverage armor, with the letters 'T.E.R' pasted on her pink helmet.
Obviously, there were her fans among the quartermasters.
"Speak."
"Chief, why don't we split into two groups? Amina and I will go in first; I can go ask her!"
"No need," Wang Jixuan shook his head. "Besides me, anyone else who goes in will probably only get lies and deception."
He exhaled softly.
"Since she wants me to come, then I'm here."
"The initiative isn't really in our hands. What we have to do is enter the game and then turn passivity into initiative."
"Who told her to master a great weapon like the planetary barrier?"
As he spoke, Wang Jixuan had already started walking forward slowly.
Zheng Shiduo, Ji Xiao, and Wu Man simultaneously chased after him. The three of them started walking shoulder to shoulder, no more than a meter away from Wang Jixuan.
Gao Huating didn't say anything more and tried to take a few deep breaths.
This subspace, filled with dim light, did have a good oxygen content.
Nierda Tamon walked at the back.
Amina watched Wang Jixuan's back, hesitated slightly, but ultimately didn't say anything more. Her hands quickly formed a seal, and a beam of light bloomed from her brow.
A stone door appeared in the void ahead, with a vortex in the center of the door.
A very cliché teleportal style.
Just as Wang Jixuan was about to step into the door, Wu Man called out to stop him.
"Sir, let's still follow what we discussed before."
"Okay, good," Wang Jixuan turned around and busied himself, using a magic rope to wrap around everyone's arms.
The Daoist priest looked at Nierda Tamon.
The latter smiled and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I'll suddenly attack you under these circumstances?"
"I'm confident that I haven't misjudged your character."
"Chatting with you is quite pleasant."
Nierda Tamon took the end of the rope and tied it to his arm.
And Gao Huating not only had the rope tied around her, but Amina also grabbed her elbow.
"Let's go in. I'll count to three. One, two, jump!"
Everyone jumped forward at the same time, and Zheng Shiduo, who was half a beat slower, was directly dragged forward by a huge force.
"Weren't you supposed to count to three, Brother Wang!"
"Really? I'll pay attention next time."
The teleportation gate shone brightly, and Wang Jixuan instantly lost his six senses.
He vaguely sensed that he had broken into a cotton ball made of spiritual energy, and there were constantly flashing lights in all areas.
Suddenly, he heard bursts of silver bell-like laughter beside his ears.
In a trance, he seemed to hear shouts from extremely far away.
One second he seemed to be in the clouds, and the next he seemed to be enduring tremendous pressure in the deep sea. After a few more moments, he seemed to be galloping on horseback across the vast prairie.
Finally;
Wang Jixuan broke through the cotton ball, his six senses recovered, and he opened his eyes, only to have his Dao heart shaken by the scene before him.
He was standing in a corner of a city wall, and what caught his eye were the towering spires everywhere, as well as the giant array that blotted out the sky and covered the clouds.
There were floating immortal islands in the air;
Countless artistic decorations dotted the area;
Many palace buildings could be seen on both sides of the streets, each palace being very spacious.
There was only one thing.
There was no vitality here. Looking around, there wasn't a single living thing.
Wang Jixuan was about to release his spiritual sense but found that his spiritual sense was suppressed by an invisible force, and this force… why did it seem so much like the Spirit Suppression Barrier that came with his Wangxian Valley's Mountain Protection Array…
The Daoist priest subconsciously glanced left and right. Everyone was still there.
Amina maintained a praying posture;
Nierda Tamon's face also carried a bit of shock, and there was a bit more fanaticism in his eyes;
Zheng Shiduo, Wu Man, Ji Xiao…
"Where's Little Huating?" Wang Jixuan asked with a frown.
Everyone looked at each other.
Amina frowned and said, "I clearly didn't let go of her just now…"
Wang Jixuan shook his neck.
A show of force?
Or was it that the other party didn't want Little Huating to be with them, otherwise it wouldn't be convenient to attack?
Since we're here, let's make the best of it.
"Let's go, let's take a look around."
At the same moment.
Gao Huating groggily opened her eyes, her pink helmet flashing a light green indicator light.
She felt like she was lying down, and the strength in her limbs was slowly returning.
Gao Huating slowly sat up, and what caught her eye was a magnificent palace. Strange-shaped, gold-edged glass-like alien screens flickered with light, and the seats behind these screens were all empty.
There was only one…
Not far from her, on the throne that could overlook the entire scene, sat the 'slender' woman she often saw in the mirror.
The smile on the woman's lips was so charming.
Ding!
A gentle synthetic voice sounded beside her, speaking a language very similar to the Lingxiu Civilization language, which Gao Huating could understand without any difficulty.
What the synthetic voice said was…
"Soul comparison complete. Prisoner Number One has returned."
