Gao Wu: Become stronger by grinding Erlang Shen's talents

Chapter 722 Yao Chen Arrives! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"boom!!"

"what is that?"

On the street, people in the buildings looked at the dazzling golden light piercing the sky and uttered sounds of doubt.

"I don't know, I just heard a loud explosion."

"The sound sounds like an explosion coming from the Yujing Haoting residential complex!"

"Yujing Haoting residential complex?"

"Isn't that the neighborhood where Jin Di lives?"

"So what happened?"

Countless people talked about it.

……

At the same time, in the capital city, at the headquarters of the Crimson Sky Martial Arts Hall!

At the planetary defense platform monitoring center, a piercing alarm sounded:
[Alert! Alert!]

[In Cang Province, Tianhai City, at the Yujing Haoting residential complex, an energy fluctuation surpassing the second realm of the universe has erupted!]

The staff on duty changed their expressions drastically upon hearing the alarm!

"not good!!"

"Yujing Haoting residential complex, that's Jin Di's residence!"

“Something big has happened!!”

The staff member was trembling all over and immediately picked up his phone to contact the Red Emperor.

Because the Red Emperor had instructed that matters concerning the Golden Emperor should be reported directly to him, regardless of the time.

……

Meanwhile, in a mansion at headquarters, the Crimson Emperor, dressed in a white robe, was chatting with his family on the sofa.

The spacious living room was unusually lively.

The Red Emperor is over 70 years old. He has children and many grandchildren; it is a large family.

Everyone chatted, making the living room lively.

Most of them possessed exceptionally powerful auras, and there were even several Sky-Soaring Realm warriors among them.

The Crimson Emperor looked at Qin Heng and smiled:

"Xiao Heng is only 16 years old this year, but he already has the strength of the 5th realm!"

"Four years from now, he will be able to break through to the eighth realm of Qi Refining!"

"After breaking through to the Sky Realm, I can hone my skills for several decades and hopefully join a supreme power."

Upon hearing this, Qin Heng also revealed a hint of pride.

The Crimson Emperor nodded in agreement.

"Xiao Heng still has potential. He might have a chance if he joins a supreme power!"

Just then, his phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and his expression changed drastically!

Then he addressed the crowd:

"I need to go out for some business, so I won't be back for lunch!"

After saying that, he turned around and left, his body levitating and flying towards the door.

A terrifying shockwave swept over everyone's eyes.

In the blink of an eye, the Crimson Emperor vanished before their eyes, leaving everyone puzzled.

"What happened? This is the first time I've seen him so anxious?"

The Crimson Emperor said, "I'll go ask!"

……

"Boohoo!!"

In the sky, a figure covered in scorching energy burst forth with a roar, darting through the air like a crimson fighter jet.

The Crimson Emperor's expression was solemn as he continuously increased his speed.

[Master, something's happened in the neighborhood where Jin Di lives. An energy fluctuation surpassing the second realm of the universe has erupted.]

"I never expected something like this would still happen!"

"The assassins arrived too fast!"

The Crimson Emperor was heavy-hearted. If something happened to Lin Qi, it would be a huge blow to Blue Star.

Unfortunately, his fastest time now is 15 minutes!

He is now a seasoned second-realm martial artist of the universe. When flying at full speed, he can reach a distance of several provinces in about 10 minutes.

"boom!"

Not far behind him, a fighter jet caught up!
……

Yujing Haoting Residential Community, Tianhai City.

Lin Qi, dressed in a black robe, had his third eye completely closed!
The golden divine light within had been completely released.

He looked at the fragments of weapons on the ground, as well as the blue fragments.

The assassin was dead, leaving behind only a pile of shredded pieces.

"Whoo~"

Lin Qi stopped [Double Transformation of Metal and Steel].

A wave of intense fatigue washed over him, but at the same time, a warm current surged through his body, and his energy was rapidly being restored.

He quickly approached and used his mental power to envelop the fragments, causing them to float up from the ground.

He took out a black metal box from his spatial bracelet and put the items inside.

Then he looked around and saw that the windows of many villas were broken, as were all the large projected screens.

The entire square was deserted; everyone had hidden themselves away.

Then his gaze fell on the Star-Devouring Beast Xiaotian, whose body was growing larger and larger. He had now revealed his true form.

His abdomen was ripped open, and blood was flowing out.

"Roar of the Heavens!"

Lin Qi looked worried and approached the Star Devouring Beast Xiaotian.

The opponent's breath was fading; the assassin had severely injured it with a single strike, but fortunately, it didn't come down with another.

"Buzz!!"

Lin Qi took out a large amount of the Water of Life from his pocket and kept pouring it into Xiaotian's mouth.

This was something he had prepared beforehand for his journey to another world, to prevent Xiaotian from getting hurt.

However, Xiaotian's combat power was too strong. As expected of a mutant among the Star Devouring Beasts, he was basically unharmed and the effects were not needed.

He poured all the life-giving water into Xiaotian's mouth in one gulp.

"Woo~"

"Pain~"

In his mind, Xiaotian sent a message.

Lin Qi patted Xiaotian's head and comforted him:
"It's alright now, thanks to you this time!"

He could feel that, under the influence of the Water of Life, Xiaotian's body was beginning to recover and the bleeding was beginning to stop.

The wound has begun to heal.

A large amount of energy in the air was absorbed by his body.

"Boohoo!!"

Just then, two figures flew over from a distance, quickly approached, and landed on the ground.

It was Jiang Tao and Jiang Miaoyin who had gone out to visit Teacher Zhang Cheng!
"Brother Qi, what's going on?"

“I saw a golden light shooting into the sky from Teacher Zhang’s house; it was coming from our neighborhood.”

"I rushed back with A-Miao right away!"

Jiang Tao stared at the enormous creature before him, its massive size exceeding 500 meters, almost filling the entire plaza and having destroyed several villas!
Lin Qi explained, "I was assassinated. This is Xiao Tian. He took the blow for me and was seriously injured!"

Jiang Tao's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this:

"What? You were assassinated?"

Jiang Miaoyin looked around, extending her mental perception, and asked those around her curiously:

"I didn't sense the assassin's presence. Could they have already escaped?"

Lin Qi shook his head and said:
"He didn't run away, so I killed him?"

Jiang Tao then asked, "Why didn't we see any bodies?"

Lynch explained, "Only fragments remain!"

Jiang Tao exclaimed, "Brother Qi, you're amazing! You've annihilated the assassins into pieces!"

Then he looked at Xiaotian and asked, "Are you sure this is Xiaotian?"

"Is this a demon?"

Lin Qi explained, "Xiaotian is a Star Devouring Beast, obtained from the space bracelet I used to hunt down wanted criminals in the universe."

"I've kept it by my side ever since it hatched."

Lin Qi's status is different now, and it's not hard to say what Xiao Tian's identity is either.

He is now the champion of the Deep Space Genius Tournament and a member of the three holy sites.

It's perfectly normal to have a Star Devourer as a pet.

After hearing this, Jiang Tao exclaimed, "It has to be you, Brother Qi, who even managed to obtain the Star Devouring Beast."

After a while, the Star Devouring Beast Xiaotian recovered a lot from its injuries and began to use its Thousand Transformations technique. Its body began to shrink and it transformed back into the Golden Retriever Demon King.

Jiang Tao and Jiang Miaoyin immediately believed it.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a loud noise drew the attention of the three. High in the sky, a blazing figure streaked across the heavens like a streak of light.

He descended before the crowd, releasing a terrifying aura.

Like a dazzling sun descending from the sky, radiating light and heat.

The three looked closely and saw that the person who came was none other than the head of the Crimson Sky Martial Arts Hall, the strongest person on Blue Star—the Crimson Emperor!
"Master!"

The three greeted each other.

Clad in crimson armor, resembling a god, the Crimson Emperor surveyed his surroundings, his expression grave as he looked at the dilapidated environment and asked:
"Lin Qi, what happened?"

Lin Qi looked around and said, "This isn't the place to talk. Let's go to my house first!"

A moment later, the four returned to Lynch's house number 5, where a cell phone sat on the spacious table.

The Crimson Emperor frowned as he looked at the screen and said:
"This should be a signal jammer, a very high-end model, and it's not cheap."

"The electronic equipment currently deployed on our planet cannot withstand it!"

"For them, this thing is a great way to hide their tracks."

"There might not even be any surveillance cameras left!"

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That assassin simply turned on the jammer, and many electronic devices in our community were all interfered with."

"Various electronic devices lost their signals, and some even exploded."

The Crimson Emperor spoke again and asked:
"Lin Qi, tell me more about the assassin."

Lin Qi nodded to the three of them and recounted the entire process again.

"...In the end, I used my hidden killing move to completely kill him!"

After saying that, he took out a metal box from his spatial bracelet, opened it, and revealed the fragments inside. "These are the fragments left at the scene after the assassin's death."

"The other party is not our human race, but another race among the myriad races of the universe."

Jiang Tao was stunned upon hearing this: "Wait, Brother Qi, you mean you killed an assassin who was suspected to be at the third level of the universe?"

"So, all that's left are these fragments?!"

Lin Qi nodded and said, "That's right, this is my trump card!"

"But it's already been exposed!"

Jiang Tao and Jiang Miaoyin exchanged a glance and gasped.

That's an incredibly powerful trump card.

The Crimson Emperor was also shocked. Te also had a special physique, but he didn't have such an exaggerated trump card.

Once he reveals his trump card, he'll be close to death himself.

Lynch appeared to be uninjured.

The difference is huge!
Jiang Tao exclaimed, "If you used this trump card in the Deep Space Genius Tournament, you could have killed Mono in one move."

"It didn't have to be this tough."

Lin Qi shook his head and said, "If I reveal my trump card, the other party will be on guard, and the danger level will increase dramatically!"

"He might die today!"

The three nodded, explaining that the assassin was able to kill Lin Qi because he was unaware of his abilities.

The Crimson Emperor spoke:

"From now on, you will stay in the villa. I will stay with you and wait for Dean Yaochen to arrive!"

"As for your fragments, we'll have to wait for Dean Yaochen to come and identify them!"

Lin Qi nodded: "That's the only way. I'll have to trouble you, Master!"

The Crimson Emperor sat down and waved his hand, saying, "Actually, it's also my fault!"

"If I had known, I should have brought you to the capital."

"With me here, I am confident that I can hold off even beings at the third level of the universe for a moment!"

Lin Qi nodded. Although the Crimson Emperor was not as powerful as the assassin in terms of pressure, his dangerous aura was by no means weak.

He has a chance of winning even against ordinary third-realm martial artists of the universe.

Moreover, he could sense that the assassin's defensive capabilities were not very good; once hit, he couldn't withstand the attack for even a moment.

In this respect, he is inferior to the black-armored strongman who comprehended the Law of Earth in the cosmic arena.

……

About ten minutes later, my parents, younger brother, and younger sister all returned.

They received the notification and rushed back.

Seeing that Lin Qi was alright, they breathed a sigh of relief.

As time went on, many people across the planet knew that something had happened at the Yujing Haoting residential complex.

If something happens in the neighborhood, it's highly likely that it's related to Lin Qi.

Many people came to inquire about Lynch's condition.

Lin Qi replied to each of them one by one. After hearing the details of the matter, Sun Sheng, Li Tianxing and the others were immediately shocked.

Besides them, more and more people are aware of one thing.

That is, Lin Qi was assassinated, but successfully fought back and killed his attacker.

Lin Qi sat quietly in the room, waiting for Yao Chen to arrive.

Around 10 p.m., Lin Xiao and Lin Zhaoyue started to feel sleepy in the living room and went back to their room to sleep.

The others waited quietly.

Suddenly, the Crimson Emperor stood up from the sofa and looked at the information on his phone screen:

"Dean Yaochen has arrived, and his spaceship is about to enter Blue Star!"

The others slowly stood up as well. Jiang Tao exhaled and said:
"finally come!"

Everyone entered the courtyard and looked up at the sky!
A moment later, a black dot appeared in everyone's sight.

Finally, the black dot magnified and transformed into a spaceship shaped like a crimson blade.

"boom!!"

It is 200 meters long and 80 meters wide, and its reddish-metal exterior exudes a hard luster.

Lin Qi looked at the metal structure of the spaceship, which was more complex than any weapon he had ever seen.

Only the short knife used by the assassin could surpass it.

However, the assassin's dagger was only a thin layer, while the metal hull of this ship might be more than a meter thick.

His golden divine light might not even be able to penetrate it.

"boom!"

The spaceship slowly came to a stop in the back garden, barely managing to come to a halt.

"Buzz!"

The huge hatch opened, and a metal staircase was placed on the lawn.

The air grew heavy, emanating powerfully from inside the hatch.

Several figures flew out of the cabin door.

They wore armor of different colors, and their physiques, appearances, and skin colors were all completely different.

Their powerful armor all bore the same crimson star emblem.

At the same time, their auras were powerful, and the moment they emerged, they were like giant stars flying towards us.

Its profound and majestic aura is released without any concealment.

Lin Qi was alarmed; all 12 people who came out exuded a dangerous aura.

He is now a second-level Cosmic Realm, Star Realm martial artist.

For him to sense danger, someone must be at least at the third level of the universe.

And all 12 of them were actually powerful beings at the third level of the universe.

Not only him, but also Chi Di, Jiang Tao, Jiang Miaoyin, their father Lin Zhen, and their mother Jiang Miaoyin were all stunned by the scene.

After the 12 people came down, they lined up in two rows.

Following them, a man also dressed in crimson armor, tall and handsome with a crimson flame mark between his brows, landed on the ground.

The moment he appeared, everyone felt as if they were facing a blazing sun, radiating boundless heat and light.

Upon seeing the group, he immediately smiled.
"Finally, we meet in real life, students!"

The visitor was none other than Yao Chen, the dean of the Lieyang Academy.

A super-powerful being at the fourth level of the universe—if a civilization has a super-powerful being at the fourth level of the universe, it has the ability to govern a star system.

The Spark Civilization once had martial artists who broke through the fourth realm of the universe and began to challenge the intermediate civilization.

Before Lin Qi stood a powerful expert at the fourth level of the universe.

Yao Chen's gaze fell on the Crimson Emperor and Lin Qi, and he immediately smiled and said:

"I'm so happy to see you all here!"

The Crimson Emperor opened his mouth and laughed:
"Dean Yaochen, we welcome you to Blue Star."

Lin Qi smiled and said, "Dean Yaochen, you must be tired from your journey."

Yao Chen smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"It's only a little over a month's journey, it's not tiring at all!"

"Oh right, I forgot to introduce you to him!"

"I'm under orders to protect you, Lin Qi. Our Lieyang Star Region has dispatched two teams!"

"I am the first batch, and behind me are 12 warriors at the third level of the universe, forming a guard team of mental masters."

"There's a second batch. They'll arrive in a couple of days. They're also martial artists at the fourth level of the universe. Lin Qi recognizes them; it's Yao Ying."

"The same 12-person guard team!"

"Two warriors at the fourth level of the universe, and 24 warriors at the third level of the universe."

"We will protect your safety until the guards of the three holy sites take you away, then our mission will be complete."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Jiang Tao exclaimed in shock, "This lineup is too amazing!"

"With their protection, who can assassinate Qi Ge?"

Jiang Miaoyin and Lin Qi nodded in agreement.

Especially Lin Qi, if Dean Yao Chen and the others were here today.

The assassin might have been trampled to death before even getting close.

At this moment, the Crimson Emperor suddenly spoke:

"There's something I need to tell the dean: Lin Qi was assassinated today!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the air froze instantly.

Lin Qi instantly felt the air become imprisoned, and all of them seemed unable to move.

Yao Chen's aura was indeed much stronger than in the virtual world.

The level of life is completely different now.

Yao Chen withdrew his oppressive aura, frowned, and asked, "What exactly is going on?"

"By the way, let's chat on my spaceship!"

The group exchanged glances, nodded, and entered the spaceship.

The entire spaceship was exceptionally spacious, with a round red metal table in the central hall where everyone sat down.

Then a tall team member poured red liquid onto the group.

Yao Chen smiled and said, "This is a special beverage of our Lieyang civilization—Red Juice Water."

"Taste it!"

Lynch nodded, picked up the transparent glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

It has a rich flavor, just like mutton soup.

The next second, a surge of intense energy rushed into his body and spread throughout his entire being.

After the body absorbed it, it actually showed a tendency to become stronger.

His eyes lit up; the effects of this red liquid were truly remarkable.

The most obvious examples are the father, Lin Zhen, and the mother, Fang Huiyi.

After they drank it, their faces turned red, their blood surged, and their aura became much stronger.

Lin Zhen exclaimed in surprise, "I feel my Qi and Blood value has increased significantly, and I'm not far from the sixth realm!"

This cup of red liquid is already equivalent to a rare and precious treasure.

Yao Chen's smile faded, and he said seriously:

"Can you tell me about the assassination now?"

Lin Qi nodded and said:

"Nowadays……"
