Chapter 277: Martial God Project
Cracks like shattering glass appeared in space, and the K-Masked Man, who was holding the reins of his horse, reappeared in the real world.
He glanced at Xize’s struggling, near-death spirit body before turning his gaze to the Wolf-tail Knight in the distance.
“Are you from Heavenly Revelation?”
“Yin Shi, current deputy head of the Garden Investigation Team.”
The Wolf-tail Knight’s grayish-white eyes stared calmly at the K-Masked Man. “According to my investigation, the walker Xize is the mastermind behind a series of tragic cases and needs to be handed over to the ‘Imperial Court’ for further review and sentencing.”
“I will not interfere with the grudge between you and Xize, but his life must be spared.”
“He’s the mastermind?” Xia Feng narrowed his eyes and asked with a smile, “So that’s how it is. When will Xize be executed by you?”
“Xize’s sentencing is not within my jurisdiction,” the Wolf-tail Knight said calmly.
Hearing this, Xia Feng finally understood that Xize would at most be imprisoned, not killed.
As for the series of tragic cases mentioned by Yin Shi, it should refer to the Garden and White Emperor City, but how could a walker have such great power to cause such things? He was probably just a scapegoat.
Thinking of this, the killing intent in Xia Feng’s eyes grew stronger. Damn it, if Xize were to go to prison, it would be difficult to kill him then.
Ignoring the Wolf-tail Knight any further, Xia Feng mounted his horse, drew his bow, and pulled the string again. An arrow of light converged and pointed directly at the center of the humanoid skeleton’s forehead.
“It seems you intend to be an enemy of our Heavenly Revelation,” the Wolf-tail Knight said calmly. His giant longsword dragged on the ground, emitting a metallic clang, and he slowly advanced.
Xize’s spirit body twisted, and his fearful eyes looked up at the approaching Eji Heavenly Horse and the K-Masked Man riding on Eji’s waist. He growled resentfully, “Kid, you just wait!”
He had to admit that he had suffered a terrible defeat this time. He had never expected this punk Xia Feng to be so monstrous.
But fortunately, a Heavenly Revelation Knight happened to be here, and could save his life.
“Uh—”
Just then, a shocked cry echoed.
Xize’s peripheral vision caught sight of something, and then he saw a scene that plunged him into despair.
A black-robed figure quietly appeared to the right of the Wolf-tail Knight. Her Q-masked face, colored blood-red, was cold and eerie. She gripped the hilt of her sword and horizontally placed the blade against Yin Shi’s neck, casually drawing it across.
The Wolf-tail Knight’s vacant, grayish-white pupils widened in confusion as his head flew off.
Xize: “?”
Wait, Yin Shi, what the hell are you doing? You just died like that?!
“Blood Spirit Incarnation.”
Mu Qingtong flicked the blood from her blade and turned to look at Xia Feng. “Although this Knight possessed True Martial Realm strength, he was not the main body and had no soul.”
Xia Feng had heard of the Blood Spirit Incarnation. It was a very famous spirit robe for creating avatars, using blood as the spirit to construct a puppet body.
Avatars created by spirit robes like this had an obvious drawback: they could not inherit memories after death. Only when the main body retrieved the avatar could memory fusion occur.
To have memories synchronized at any time, only some very rare spirit artifacts could achieve this.
However, if an avatar possessed True Martial strength, then the main body was 100% a Venerable.
Furthermore, the Blood Spirit Incarnation had another characteristic – it had no soul.
Normally, this wouldn’t be a problem, but when facing Mu Qingtong, it became a fatal weakness.
This was because Mu Qingtong’s mental control could not only control living beings but also strongly control any soulless inanimate object. Yin Shi was an inanimate object to her. Even with True Martial strength and a vast amount of mental power within his shell, it was useless.
As the blade fell, a blood-red light cluster floated out of the headless corpse, enclosing an avatar of consciousness. Yin Shi hadn’t expected this Q-Masked person to be so monstrous. His heart grew heavy, and he was about to say something.
The Q-Masked person struck again with a backhand slash, and consciousness vanished, completely silencing him.
Xize: “. ”
“Wait, wait a minute!” Xize was terrified and horrified. The fear of death made him completely collapse, and he was about to kneel before Xia Feng to beg for mercy. However, the arrow, flashing with black light, had already left the string, rapidly enlarging in his unwilling, fearful eyes.
It pierced the spirit body’s forehead! How could this happen? His consciousness began to dissipate.
Everything had been prepared. A vacation in prison for two to three hundred years before coming out again. The plan was so perfect.
*Boom—*
The spirit body dispersed, and the corpse fell forward.
Walker Xize, deceased.
The battlefield fell into a dead silence.
The remaining ninety Season Envoys were bewildered, staring at the scene in astonishment.
Both the Heavenly Revelation Knight and the Walker Xize were strong True Martial realm cultivators, and they died just like that?
Especially the Heavenly Revelation Knight, who had been so boastful, but died the fastest! The faces of the Season Envoys turned ashen. Some began to quietly retreat, turning to flee!
The formation of the envoys immediately descended into chaos, but they couldn’t escape, because the World-Ending Witch had surrounded them.
The battlefield erupted into fighting once more, with the Q-Masked person facing ninety opponents.
Xia Feng began to collect spoils of war, starting with Yin Shi. Although this guy was just a useless avatar, he still dropped a strange compass, like a God Relic that recorded images.
!
Xia Feng picked it up and put it into the Nascent Ten Space, then began to scour the underground base thoroughly.
It was too slow for one person to collect everything, so he summoned all the Half-dragons and began to plunder the island, covered in volcanoes, with a carpet-like search!
Now, due to its upgrade to A-class, the Nascent Ten Space had expanded from its original 10 cubic meters to 100 cubic meters.
This was enough for him to empty out more than half of the fortress’s wealth.
While plundering, Xia Feng also checked the status of his spirit artifacts.
[Alpha Divine Mirror Without Stand]
[Spirit Unsealing: Copy | Optimize | Remove the false and preserve the true]
[Incomplete Holy Solution: Fusion Device | Enlightenment | ???]
[Usable Copy Slots: 4+1]
[Current Spirit Artifacts: ‘Limitless A-class Nascent Ten Sacred Armor’, ‘B-class Vermilion Bird Demonic Armor’, ‘B-class Ten Dragon Cannon’, ‘Limitless B-class Spirit Restricting Coin’, ‘C-class Bride Doll’]
The third Holy Solution ability would likely require gathering all the materials before it could be dispelled. The road ahead was long and arduous.
However, with the full effort of two thousand Half-dragons, they managed to find 10 Water Obsidians, which was a decent harvest.
He originally had 30 Water Obsidians, and with these 10, he still needed 60 more.
And two Manifestation Traces.
Besides Water Obsidian, he also obtained 3 Fire Obsidians, 1 Golden Obsidian, 209 grams of Boundless Stone, 143 grams of Holy Solution, and nearly a thousand 2nd to 5th-stage spirit materials. Among them, two 5th-stage spirit materials were what Miss Mu needed, so the harvest was quite substantial.
In addition, the Holy Solution was plundered from Xize’s safe. Inside the safe were also two B-grade spirit papers and a specially made information spirit paper with many layers of encryption.
Mu Qingtong, with her swift operations, easily decrypted the encrypted information, obtaining information that greatly interested Xia Feng.
For the past thirty years, the Li Dong Legion had been collecting Origin Water on White Emperor Island and secretly sending it to ‘Zone 41, Helyan City, Dong Sheng Fortress’ to conduct an experiment called the [Martial God Project].
“Origin Water…”
Xia Feng stroked his chin. He thought Origin Water was just a drop, but it turned out there was so much more.
However, whether to search for Origin Water was not an urgent matter. Before that, he needed to find an opportunity to visit the Evil Dragon Space.
He needed to ask about the purpose of Origin Water.
