In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone.

Chapter 252 Listen, the sound of drums
"Hmm? Why is my right eyelid twitching?"

Taoist Wang stopped pressing the communicator, raised his hand and stroked the corners of his eyes, but his brows were still twitching slightly.

What happened?
Overusing your eyes?
According to the rules of the cultivation world, if the right eye twitches, it means that the mind and body are tired, while if the left eye twitches, it means good fortune... there must be a treasure within a hundred miles that is destined for me!

He looked up and ahead.

Still at the same place where the [Blood Refining Shura Formation] was set up last time, Mudan and her mechanical sisters were busy filling in the formation bases that had been made overnight.

Now Wang Jixuan no longer lacks materials.

The appearance of He Yuan Dan perfectly solved the overload problem of the old half-human mecha, and also directly allowed Wang Jixuan to obtain rare mineral support from major war zones.

His right eyelid stopped twitching temporarily. In Wang Jixuan's mind, that was...

Even more uncertain.

He had already sensed that something might go wrong, so he not only sent Aunt Dragonfly to investigate, but also hurriedly set up a formation to improve qualifications.

Improve your qualifications first and then reach the realm of Taoism, this way you can maximize your benefits.

On the communicator, several people were talking about the incident at the Snow Mountain Base, mainly telling Ling Tong.

Although Zheng Shiduo sent texts, it always gave people the feeling that he was telling a story with great excitement.

【There's a lot of business: Good guy, we later found out that the man who was pinned to the ground by Brother Wang was called Meng Jin, the leader of their Spirit Management Committee's Judgment Team. A leader and a dozen of their elites were pinned down by Brother Wang alone! That was so cool!】

[Ling Tong: The words used are a bit rude.]

【Wang Zheng: Listen to his bragging, he was only barely able to repel it, and he still borrowed the power of the peak war puppet.】

【Wu Man: Sir, you are too modest.】

[Wang Zheng: If you two are free, come over. I will start the formation right away and help you improve your aptitude. Ask Xiao Hua Ting and Shen Qionglin to come as well. It will cost a few more crystal cores.]

[Ling Tong: Come on guys, I have to continue giving speeches here, and I will have combat missions starting tomorrow! This wave of promotion is finally over. ]

[Zhou Zhengde (82 Designer): When will Lieutenant Colonel Ling Tong come to give a speech? Let's make full use of our break time.]

Wang Jixuan immediately narrowed his eyes and smiled.

[Ling Tong: With Teacher Wang's light shining on me, how dare I spread this bright light? However, the combat mission scheduling will have maintenance cycles, so there will be holidays. Fortress No. 76 is the maintenance headquarters I set up. ]

[Zhengshiduo: Well, after we come back, we will tell you the story of Brother Zhou and Sister Tiantian. ]

【Zhou Zhengde: Lao Zheng, your butt is itchy, isn’t it?】

[There’s a lot of business: Damn it, how did you know I’ve been craving you for a long time? Come on, whip me! Ahahahaha! ]

【Wu Man: The screen is dirty.】

【Ling Tong: ???】

【Wang Zheng: We will start the battle later, you stay in the corner.】

[Most Serious: Wrong, wrong! Brother Wang, I was wrong! I was just flirting with Director Xia Zhou. I am not interested in him. I only have you in my heart, Brother Wang!]

【Wang Zheng: You are the base of the formation! 】

Taoist Wang’s face is now full of disgust.

Mudan suddenly ran over in a hurry.

"Sir, we have just intercepted some information about the Snow Mountain Base, which is being spread on the military network of the D2 Integrated War Zone."

"what news?"

"It seems that a battle broke out over there," Mudan quickly sorted out the fragmented information, "The key word is, the black shadow, he came over, the human blood suddenly boiled, the blood was drained, and he entered the main base of the Snow Mountain Base."

The smile on Taoist Wang's face slowly faded.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and now he had to face up to the speculation he had made before.

Those potions were contaminated with demonic energy. The source of the demonic energy was not the remaining demonic energy from his initial battle. Instead,... a demon appeared there.

"Tell Wu Man, Zheng Shiduo, Shen Qionglin, and Gao Huating to hurry up and come over. We only need to debug the formation once so that it can be used."

"Yes!"

"Ask Lao Fu for help and find out what happened at the D2 Snow Mountain Base immediately. Tell Aunt Dragonfly to stop approaching that place! I don't want to save her a second time."

Wang Jixuan's right eye twitched again.

Disaster is coming.

But this is obviously unreasonable.

If a demon was born in the Snow Mountain Base and was killing people on a large scale...

Where does this demon's evil spirit come from?
All Wang Jixuan could think of was the S-level material that they had left behind in the ruins of the snow mountain base. The other party should be able to hold on for a while in the life-support cabin.

Then, while this person was unconscious, he absorbed the remaining demonic energy in the passage through the air?

The probability of such a thing happening is really too small, even smaller than the possibility of Zheng Shiduo suddenly changing his sexual orientation.

Taoist Wang kept thinking, listing various possibilities, and recalling the details of the battle at the Snow Mountain Base.

He was sure that more than 98 percent of the demonic energy transformed by those blade beasts had been absorbed by the war puppets.

The war puppet was healing in an underground passage near Rainbow Town, a few kilometers away from the secret base...

Ah, there is another possibility.

However, this possibility seems even more ridiculous - the escaped spiritual practitioner No. 4 and the inheritance spire No. 4.

Up to now, they have used various methods, and No. 5 has also been constantly investigating, but they have not been able to find the whereabouts of spiritual practitioner No. 4. At that time, No. 4 was also infected by the evil spirit.

"No way? The fourth spiritual practitioner, a spiritual practitioner who is tens of thousands of years old and has at least the strength of a Nascent Soul at his peak, can't even dissolve the evil spirit?"

Wang Jixuan shook his head.

Although he already knew that there were great differences among individual spiritual practitioners and their pursuits were also different, Old Sophie No. 4 was said to be a "mixed bag" in the spiritual civilization;
But he was still unwilling to accept the possibility that his enemy could not dissolve even a little bit of evil spirit. This seemed absurd to him.

"Sir, they are coming."

"Come into battle."

Wang Jixuan scratched his brow, led the four people into the formation, and told them by voice what to pay attention to later.

This formation is called [Qingping Fuling], and it is also a welfare formation provided by their Wangxian Valley to the inner disciples. It will not directly improve the cultivation level, but only improve the aptitude, and also has the function of slightly guiding the comprehension.

The formation slowly closed.

Mudan has intercepted more information and intermittent battle scenes are beginning to appear.

Mudan's intelligence capabilities are absolutely first-rate in human society.

These similar images would only be delivered to Fu Jian six or seven minutes later;

More than half an hour later, the intelligence personnel from the City of Psychic Energy sorted out the images and presented them to the six elders.

……

Da da da.

The sound of the hard heels of high heels hitting the floor rapidly echoed in the top-floor passage of the fortress where the Inquisition headquarters was located.

The tall and beautiful female secretary pushed open the two gilded doors and quickly entered the team leader's office.

There is a huge floor-to-ceiling window on the side of the office. Outside the window is a lake covered with solid ice. The dazzling sunlight near the Arctic Circle shines on the body of the man lying in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, outlining the perfect contours of the man's muscular body.

Meng Jin likes sunbathing;
And they don't like to be disturbed while sunbathing.

The female secretary bit her lip, lowered her head and walked forward quickly, holding a portable projector in her hand. "Captain, Mr. Tai has an urgent call."

"Hmm?" Meng Jin opened his eyes and asked slowly, "What's the matter?"

The female secretary reminded quietly: "Mr. Tai is still waiting on the communication channel, are you…"

"Humph."

Meng Jin snorted lightly, stood up, walked barefoot to the clothes rack nearby, put on his bathrobe calmly in front of the female secretary, and sat on the sofa nearby.

"Get in."

The female secretary quickly adjusted the projector, and Tai Shenggang's figure appeared on the projection screen. Several plump middle-aged women who were sleeping could be seen nearby.

Obviously, the situation this time is very urgent.

"Watch this battle first."

Old Tai tapped a few buttons, and a split screen appeared on the projection screen in front of Meng Jin, and a scene began to play.

Hundreds of fully armed soldiers, including three half-human mechas driving five-meter-class mechas specially designed for underground combat, pointed their guns at a large hole in front of them.

Meng Jin recognized at a glance that the background was Xing Dian’s snow mountain base.

The place where his core team suffered heavy losses.

Screams continued to be heard from the black hole. Puffs of black smoke began to pour out, and a figure suddenly jumped out of it. Guns and cannons from all directions opened fire at the same time, and beams of light burst out at the same time.

Lasers and high-energy ion beams are everywhere.

Meng Jin's eyelids suddenly twitched.

A circular shield appeared around the black shadow, blocking all attacks from the surroundings, and the figure inside the circular shield slowly raised his head.

A note appeared next to it.

This is……

The S-level material that the six elders had given to Xing Dian before disappeared after the battle in the snowy mountains!
The clone that has been kept in the jar!
Is he alive?
What's the matter with this strength?

Black light began to flash around this person, and the round shield suddenly shattered, exploding into a shock wave that swept in all directions, sending the surrounding human warriors flying.

Human figures kept flashing in the field, and streams of black gas rushed in all directions; wherever the black gas passed, all the people in the place, ordinary soldiers, half-human mechas, and maintenance technicians, had a group of phantoms dragged away by the black gas and sent back to the human figures.

The black air around the figure became increasingly dense.

This situation...

Meng Jin suddenly thought of Xing Dian that day.

However, what Xing Dian absorbed at that time was the soul of the blade beast, while this S-level material now absorbs the human soul!
The black air became thicker and thicker, and the figure rushed towards a camp farther away with more people.

Soul plundering is getting worse and worse.

The video ends abruptly.

Tai Lao frowned and looked at Meng Jin, whispering: "Did you see it? It's very similar to what you wrote in your report."

"Yes," Meng Jin analyzed, "seizing the souls of humans or blade beasts to gain more power is a completely different logic of power enhancement from the psychic circuit."

"Get this new way to increase your strength, at any cost."

Tai Lao said slowly:

"Meng Jin, I didn't let you lead the team last time. It was my misjudgment. I trusted Angel's ability wrongly.

“I need you now.

“If this method could fall into our hands, the thresholds set by spiritual practitioners would no longer have any meaning, and we would gain a certain degree of autonomy.

"You have experience dealing with this kind of power."

Meng Jin smiled and said, "I suffered heavy losses last time when I tried to stop Xing Dian."

"Really?" Tai Lao looked unhappy. "Don't think we don't know the little tricks you did behind my back. You are too impatient, Meng Jin. You will be one of the successors in the future. We are already old."

"I don't want power, I just want respect."

Meng Jin shook his head helplessly:

“You know my ideal. I want to use our own way to prove to the world that psychics are not demons, but saviors and redeemers!
“On this basis, I can use some dishonorable means.

"If you come to me today and tell me that the demons that suddenly appeared there are threatening the survival of human civilization, I will not make any arguments or negotiate any conditions. I will immediately rush to the D2 integrated war zone to clean up this evil.

"But that's not the case. You only want to gain this kind of power. To me, that's not fighting for my ideals. So I can only put forward some appropriate conditions to prove that I'm not a child who can be fooled by your words."

Tai Shenggang smiled and said, "You are such a naive kid after all you've been through. Make some conditions."

"Ten A-grade materials."

"Three."

"Six."

"Okay," Tai Shenggang nodded slowly, "but there are only three A-level materials that have not been scheduled yet. The next three will take about a month to wait."

Meng Jin smiled happily: "Please rest assured, I will bring this power to you personally."

"Don't be as useless as Angel, or I'll have to bother training new young people again."

Mr. Tai said something expressionlessly and hung up the phone.

The smile on Meng Jin's face quickly disappeared, and he asked his secretary to replay the video and analyze it carefully.

The reason why he bargained was not to anger his "boss", but as a means of protecting himself.

Only by making Mr. Tai feel that he still cares about the small profits in front of him and is petty in doing things can he further reduce his threat to Mr. Tai and prevent him from thinking that he has "big ambitions."

This black air...

Meng Jin actually has a secret weapon. It’s one of his subordinates, who helped them treat the erosion caused by the black gas last time.

This subordinate is the spiritual slave of the second spiritual practitioner, and is branded with a special spiritual energy circuit.

Before Tai Lao knows this secret, he must first try to see if he can get the power of black energy.

"Notify them to end their vacation and assemble directly at the nearest points on the D2 border."

……

at the same time.

Outside the D5 integrated war zone, in an underground cavity hundreds of kilometers away from the border.

A special blade beast named Garino, which looks more and more like a human, is standing with his hands behind his back in front of two walls. Various mysterious symbols are engraved on the walls, which are similar to psychic circuits but different.

At this moment, several symbols were flashing rapidly.

The thin wings on the back of the Galino vibrated slightly, and a murmur came from its mouth.

"Found it, a spiritual practitioner named Sophie. He seems to be in the D2 integrated war zone of human society. The terrain there is... a plateau with snowy mountains."

"Sophie is very weak now. He has left his slate and is no longer protected by the warp."

"As long as his core circuit is destroyed, the Beast Gods will be able to wake up early..."

Garino suddenly sighed.

"Heavenly Dao, what exactly is Heavenly Dao... I really want to talk to that guy more..."
