Chapter 2808: Must first escape
Such high-intensity depletion of internal Línglì, the damage to the body is absolutely huge.
Just like a constantly withering plant, the eventual result is that even the roots and stems wither past saving.
Are these guys treating them as expendable?
Naturally, someone in the crowd disagreed; hearing this tone, not knowing how long it will last, this is like a dull knife cutting meat—sooner or later they'll die.
Since it's come to this............
Someone chose to go all out, but the final result was even more casual than the death of that Heavenly Official at the start—no close combat, they were just killed outright.
"A bunch of ants, who else?"
Like blowing away dust, that mysterious person glanced over the crowd and said lightly.
In the crowd, Hong Zun tightly grabbed Qin ShanHai's hand; seeing someone make a move just now, that brute was about to draw his sword.
Seeing this made Hong Zun's scalp go numb—you can't see this power gap, yet you still want to go up?
Up until now, Hong Zun still couldn't sense that mysterious person's cultivation level; all he could say was that this guy's strength far exceeds theirs.
Moreover, don't forget there's not just this one; there are three other mysterious people eyeing them from the side.
Since they dare do this, it proves they have the confidence to suppress the whole scene.
Probably even if everyone went up together, they'd gain nothing good.
Charging up now—isn't that just asking for death?
Forcibly holding down Qin ShanHai, Hong Zun sent a mental transmission.
"Stay calm; to save Ye Xiaozi, we at least need to stay alive first."
"If we're dead ourselves, what's the point of saving anyone?"
Seeing no one else speak, that mysterious person satisfiedly smiled and said unhurriedly.
"Then let's begin—two Shíchén, whoever dares to slack off will die."
Under that mysterious person's gaze, everyone had no choice but to continuously pour their Línglì into that white light ball.
During this period, over ten more were killed—each had held back secretly and was discovered by the other side.
Through this, everyone also noticed that these mysterious people's perception is extremely keen.
Whether you gave it your all or held back, there's no way to hide it.
Moreover, these few mysterious people strike ruthlessly, giving no chance—directly exterminating.
Thus, nobody dared to pretend anymore; they all poured their Línglì in with full effort.
Seeing the crowd now obedient, several mysterious people gathered together, smiling as they spoke.
"Not bad, smart."
"Heh, what can they do if they're not smart? Do they have a choice?"
"Indeed, even ants cling to life, let alone humans."
"But I suspect some still have schemes in mind."
"No problem, as long as they obey—it won't be needed for long anyway."
Those few mysterious people didn't speak the Human Race language; nobody understood what they said.
Two Shíchén, in ordinary times, really isn't long—it passes in the blink of an eye.
But now, after two Shíchén, everyone's face is ashen, their breath weakened to the extreme.
This is the manifestation of having exhausted all one's Línglì.
Two Shíchén of full-power infusion left everyone utterly exhausted, weakened to the extreme.
As the time arrived, that mysterious person who had spoken earlier casually put away the white light ball and said to everyone.
"Go rest on your own."
No further warnings were given, as if they believed everyone would behave themselves.
Anyway, they've already shown everyone their methods—anyone who disobeys knows the outcome.
Even the strength to speak was nearly gone; everyone, as if by unanimous agreement, took pills from their Space Rings and swallowed them.
Once the pills entered the belly, it was like long drought meeting sweet rain, making people unable to resist a feeling of refreshment and delight.
The withered Línglì was quickly replenished.
But everyone knows this is only temporary.
These few mysterious people are definitely treating them as expendable; although we don't know what they want to do, without exception they intend to drain everyone dry.
At this point, two of the mysterious people have already disappeared—no one knows where they went—leaving only two mysterious people on guard at the scene.
And these two have already chosen a most luxurious Heavenly Outside Immortal Vessel to reside in.
Inside the cabin, after looking around, one of them laughed and said.
"Don't even get me started—the Human Race sure knows how to enjoy life; other aspects are average, but looking at this, it's genuinely comfortable."
"Haha, if you like it, just stay a couple more days."
"Forget it—the Elder has ordered us not to delay too long; we must quickly restore the spatial passage, no mistakes allowed."
The two weren't worried the Human Race outside would escape, for that layer of white light blocks them—these people can't get away.
They simply began to enjoy themselves inside the cabin.
Meanwhile, outside, after just finishing the two Shíchén of torment and regaining some Línglì, Yun Xiantai and others gathered together, with Qi Xiong's grim face as he asked.
"What now? Continuing like this isn't a solution—we'll eventually be drained to death."
"Going head-on definitely won't work—there's not a chance of winning."
"Then what should we do?"
"I'll give it a try."
"Huh????"
They were discussing countermeasures when Hong Zun suddenly spoke up, and all eyes turned to him at once.
Qin Shan Hai also looked doubtful.
"Do you have a solution? I'll help you."
Qin Shan Hai didn't think much of it, but Hong Zun refused without even thinking.
"No need."
This reckless fool, besides fighting desperately, what else can he do? He's useless and might even cause trouble.
This can't be settled by brute force; we need to outsmart it and find a way.
Having been bluntly refused by Hong Zun, Qin Shan Hai said, somewhat displeased.
"I can help you."
Just rest well and don't cause trouble.
Saying this, Hong Zun nodded to Yun Xiantai, Qi Xiong, and the others, then walked alone toward the immortal vessel.
Here, everyone was forcibly conscripted and couldn't leave; some even tried using transmission talismans and other means, but predictably, contact with the outside was cut off—likely due to that layer of white light.
Completely trapped, there was no way to call for help.
Meanwhile, in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens, on this day the originally tranquil Immortal City Beyond the Heavens suddenly saw several flying vessels of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons flying straight in.
The appearance of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons' flying vessels in the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens naturally put the Human Race on high alert immediately.
Within the Heavenly Palace, many strong ones flew out, already prepared to meet the enemy.
One heavenly official asked his subordinates.
"How many flying vessels have come? Are these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons intending to attack the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens?"
"Sir, a total of two have come."
Huh???
I thought it would be a major battle, but hearing this, that heavenly official was stunned—only two?
What are these Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demons thinking? They don't even pick a place to seek death—daring to come to the Immortal City Beyond the Heavens with just two flying vessels.
You're not just delivering vegetables, are you?
The Human Race has painstakingly built this place over many years—can you really take it down with just two flying vessels?
