Dragon Raja: Lu Mingfei's Dimensional Gate

"Just hearing you say that gives me the creeps, a feeling of dread that I might die here today. Is this thing really that powerful?" Black Pipe was confident in his abilities and believed he could withstand Ma Xianhong's magical artifact.

But when faced with the evil spirit "Sadako," he dared not test her, feeling a sense of restraint, a chilling dread from the depths of his soul.

Xiao Zizai shook his head. His supervisor wasn't very well-informed, but he was able to find out the company's attitude towards Lu Mingfei, not to mention the one in the black-clad manager.

Whether he was pretending to be ignorant or genuinely didn't know, he didn't want to know.

The two put their tactical hoods back on and, following Sadako's instructions in the device, stepped over the fallen corpses and the Nathan Islanders struggling to survive in the black fog, finally arriving at the royal city.

A voluptuous woman stood in the doorway, with two or three surviving Nathan guards in front of her.

The woman didn't explain further and invited them inside.

Nathan, who should have been furious and ready to attack, simply watched them and their backs in silence.

The two of them followed the directions to a spacious open area free of black fog.

In the middle stood a leafless, gnarled tree, and King Nathan sat on a stool, looking haggard.

Another person was leisurely lying on a grand chair, drinking cola through a straw.

They know who the guy drinking the cola is even without asking.

"Brother Xiao, Uncle Guan, you've finally arrived. We've been waiting for you." Lu Mingfei stood up.

"The tree is down here. You can ask her for details." Lu Mingfei stretched his limbs, then took out the camera and used his telekinesis to make it float in mid-air.

"..." Xiao Zizai and Hei Guan were speechless.

Lu Mingfei's words were essentially explaining which side he and his group belonged to.

"Are you people who can go anywhere?" King Nathan still had doubts in his mind. Although it was just a guess, he still needed to confirm it.

"..." Xiao Zizai and Hei Guan remained silent.

"Yes." Lu Mingfei admitted very frankly.

Xiao Zizai and Hei Guan turned to look at Lu Mingfei, who was being overly frank.

It's as if they're saying, "Are you stupid?"

“I’m very smart,” Lu Mingfei retorted, ignoring the gazes from beneath their hoods.

He took out his satellite phone and dialed someone in the company.

“Uncle Zhao? I’ve taken care of everything here. Nathan is with me, and Brother Xiao and Uncle Guan are also here. The tree is intact, and I’m ready to start work. Do you have any instructions?”

"Everything's taken care of?" Zhao Fangxu asked incredulously.

Then, as if he saw something bizarre, he took a few deep breaths. On the screen in front of him was the image transmitted by Erzhuang through the Behemoth device: a deep, terrifying black mist, and superhumans who rushed into the black mist and never came out.

I grabbed the water glass, quickly opened the lid, and took a sip. Before I could put the glass down, some water spilled out because my hand was shaking.

He swallowed hard, recalling Lu Mingfei's previous behavior. He had worked with such a person for so long without any problems, and he couldn't imagine what would happen if he angered him.

No one in the company can escape, let alone someone like him who isn't particularly strong in combat.

He witnessed the extreme fear hidden beneath the seemingly gentle Lu Mingfei.

And this extremely terrified person is talking to themselves.

The special voice message chosen by Erzhuang rang in his ears.

"Uncle Zhao, should I continue the intrusion? It seems unnecessary. Lu Mingfei has already taken care of everything."

"Assist Lu Mingfei in the operation, and don't let them expose their identities." Zhao Fangxu never expected the operation to go so smoothly.

The tree on Nathan Island is definitely out of the question, as for the Nathan King that Lu Mingfei inquired about.

He was just wondering if he should hold a meeting to discuss it when Lu Mingfei's urging voices became incessant.

"What does King Nathan mean?"

She said she wanted to live and die with the tree.

What do you mean?

“I can’t bring myself to kill her. It would be too pitiful to let Behemoth’s people take her away for experiments. Let’s knock her unconscious and take her away.”

“…” Zhao Fangxu took another sip of water.

He thought to himself: "You've already made your decision, why are you asking me? Aren't you just trying to attribute your decision to the result of our discussion and pin the blame for sparing King Nathan's life on me?"

This kid is smarter than he thought; this was probably Zhang Chulan's idea.

"I'll do as you say. Let Erzhuang take over the equipment you have and record the tree's condition."

"okay."

A strange voice with a familiar tone rang in Lu Mingfei's ears.

"Lu Mingfei, raise the camera and turn it around to record... Forget it, your camerawork is no match for a dog's. Brother Xiao? Uncle Guan? One of you can take over the camera."

The clarinet caught the camera that was falling from mid-air.

Turning around, he saw Lu Mingfei slap Nathan King unconscious and throw him into the Devouring Pouch.

"We can't just let people watch their beliefs be destroyed, can we?" he explained.

"You still have some conscience, kid."

"So you actually wanted to destroy someone's faith right in front of them? Lu Mingfei, you're so cruel!" Erzhuang said.

"Rise!" Lu Mingfei had previously sensed the distribution of the tree's roots, and applied his mental power to the ground.

Huge chunks of mud flew up and landed to the side, and the root system on the ground was exposed at a visible speed. In just a few breaths, the hideous root system under the tree was exposed.

The horrifying scene left Xiao Zizai and Hei Guan speechless.

Chapter 264 Old Road

On the roots beneath the tree, grotesque human faces protruded, some fearful, some surprised, some pious, right next to the huge swelling that covered the entire area, several meters in diameter.

A distorted human face floated up from the roots in the soil, reaching into the lump.

"So that's what 'all the dead Guardians will return to the tree' means." Black pipe held the camera, recalling the information he had obtained.

“This looks disgusting.” The image of Erzhuang Cartoon appeared from the camera. “So the king and guards of Nathan Island worship such disgusting things.”

"No wonder." Lu Mingfei always felt that there was something strange about the tree that had lived for thousands of years and was still so slender. So that's the problem.

"No wonder it hasn't grown any branches for so long. It turns out it's been growing such a big thing in the dark. It's quite vain, hiding such an ugly thing underground. If it were out in the open, it might have been burned as a wizard's crop. This thousand-year-old tree spirit is quite clever."

Lu Mingfei's words gave the others a new perspective.

The tree, revered as a deity by the people of Nathan Island, gradually came to be categorized by Lu Mingfei as a spirit or monster with supernatural powers.

The tree with its massive roots moved swiftly even without wind, its branches trembling slightly.

An extremely oppressive and terrifying energy wave swept over Hei Guan and Xiao Zizai's heads, causing them to glance at the source of this energy.

Lu Mingfei casually opened his hand to the tree, and with a gentle lift, the sound of tree roots snapping came continuously from the depths of the giant pit. The broken roots twisted and turned in an extremely strange way, extending all the way to the roots in the soil, without stopping.

The tree with a huge lump hanging below it floated in mid-air.

Lu Mingfei clenched his fist in mid-air, and the tree in the air seemed to be compressed by a hydraulic press, shrinking smaller and smaller until it burst into flames.

The flames of the burning tree were faintly visible in the black mist.

Nathan and Elijah, who had been lying to the side, began to convulse. They opened their eyes, which were glowing white, and staggered to their feet. They stared in disbelief at Lu Mingfei's location and took unsteady steps.

"Forget about these two." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, and the two received the same treatment as Nathan King.

It was collected into the phallus.

Everything Lu Mingfei did was recorded by a camera, and the footage was presented to Zhao Fangxu without any omissions.

He took a sip of water, but felt like there was something stuck in his throat, unable to go up or down.

Throughout history, there have been countless extraordinary individuals, and those who have earned the title of immortal are all exceptionally powerful. From the Great Ying Immortal of the Three Ones Sect to the current Land Immortal, they are all formidable figures who have undergone countless cultivation experiences.

He had been fortunate enough to witness the power of an immortal once before; while it wasn't earth-shattering, it was certainly the pinnacle of cultivation. Now, Zhao Fangxu had witnessed it again...

I saw it with my own eyes.

With the ability to fly, burrow underground, and dive into the sea, mass-produced magical artifacts, and two formidable "fairies," it has virtually no weaknesses.

Zhao Fangxu took another sip of water, feeling as if his flesh and blood were nothing more than a matter of moving a finger, while at the same time he felt an indescribable sense of relief.

A terrestrial immortal? No, a mortal immortal without any weaknesses who descends to earth for trials?

"Uncle Zhao? Uncle Zhao?" Lu Mingfei's voice interrupted Zhao Fangxu's reverie.

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"What should we do about Nathanwei?"

"This needs to be discussed in a meeting," Zhao Fangxu replied seriously.

After agreeing, Lu Mingfei put the satellite phone aside.

"Brother Xiao, Uncle Guan, there are too many superhumans who have broken into the black fog. Sadako can't handle them all. There might be some that slip through the net and reach the royal city. You two handle it yourselves. I'll go deal with them first."

After saying that, he rushed into the thick black fog without looking back.

Watching Lu Mingfei's departing figure, Er Zhuang's gaze in the camera lens shifted between Hei Guan and Xiao Zizai.

"I didn't expect Lu Mingfei to be so awesome." Er Zhuang had been browsing the internet and had come across countless information about superhumans, but he could hardly find anyone who could even touch the hem of Lu Mingfei's clothes.

"Mission accomplished, we can leave now." Blackie took the memory card out of the camera.

The strangeness and ease of this mission were beyond his expectations. He completed the mission faster and more perfectly, yet he still felt a sense of unease.

This feeling came from that person who had already disappeared into the black fog.

The black pipe team, which had already agreed to retreat, has yet to take a step.

For some reason, my heart trembled.

He shouldn't have been afraid, but at this moment, he felt a sense of dread.

Was he afraid? Afraid of whom?

He tried to distract himself by saying casually, "This mission is really strange."

"Yes."
