"Alright, I still have complete disgust for this woman Sabina."

Daoist Master curled his lips.

Beside him, Amina had already opened her stone plate.

The group quickly entered, and Gao Huating also went towards the shimmering grand hall nearby, looking back every third step, leaving only Wang Jixuan and Amina standing shoulder to shoulder.

"Aren't you going in?" she asked.

"I'll stay outside and walk around, study the mysteries here."

Master Wang answered and rose into the air.

Lately, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, all thanks to the spiritual power contained within the Stone of the Past;

That spiritual power was left by the Mahayana realm mana that he attempted to refine during his second life, having the same root and origin with him, which resulted in an effect similar to his past self transferring power to his present self.

It was all thanks to this power transfer.

The force of Hei Yao was coming on strongly, if only at the realm of the Heaven and Earth Bridge, Wang Jixuan would have had headaches and be running around.

Now having entered the mid stage of the Nascent Soul realm, his mana vast as the sea, the Dragon Python Soul has transformed into a Black Dragon, and even when facing the mysterious Hei Yao, Wang Jixuan has the confidence to fight him head-on.

The two of them left the city-wide protective array of Cloud City unimpeded.

In front of Wang Jixuan, his view suddenly broadened, his spiritual sense surged out like a tsunami, instantly covering a radius of several hundred miles! His primordial spirit seemed to extend invisible tendrils between heaven and earth, making him feel completely refreshed!

Finally, the suppression has ended!

Master Wang truly wanted to laugh up to the sky, but considering his current identity as a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, he held back this impulse.

— Previously, although Wang Jixuan was able to unfold a portion of his spiritual sense through the formation inside the hall, it always felt like he was observing the outside through thick glass.

Daoist Master transmitted: "Why were you so aggressive just now?"

"Hmph," Amina muttered, "I've been displeased with her for a long time, before when my strength hadn't recovered, I endured, but today, I couldn't endure."

Wang Jixuan murmured: "Aren't spiritual cultivators suppressed by that red light?"

Amina was startled for a moment: "That... I forgot just now."

"Brilliant."

Daoist Master gave a thumbs up: "Originally, I wanted to curse a few words to vent, but you beat me to it, so now you follow my command."

"I'm already following your command now."

Amina's voice softened a bit.

The two had already escaped this grayish space, found the teleportation gate they came through, boldly sheltered within it, and began a series of consecutive teleportations.

When they reached the surface, Amina was about to head straight for the combat zone, but Wang Jixuan motioned her to calm down.

"There's something we need to clarify first."

"About Hei Yao?"

"Yes," Wang Jixuan asked, "what's your relationship with him?"

"Gene inheritor, that's the relationship."

Amina seemed a bit hesitant to speak, then decisively puffed herself up with a bang, becoming smaller.

This way she found it easier to express emotions.

Little Amina pouted and muttered, "Do you really think I'd have any emotional basis with him? If there's any feeling, it's probably a kind of resentment."

"Resentment?"

"Yes, he never gave me any orders, since childhood I lived in the spire of the previous Star Night Spiritual Practitioner, becoming one of many candidates."

Amina clicked her tongue:

"I would like him to assign me a task, that way at least I'd have some sense of belonging.

"Until today, before coming to this Cloud City, I didn't even know he was still alive, or that he was the mastermind of the Blade Beast disaster.

"So you don't need to worry about this... I'm on your side."

Wang Jixuan smiled serenely: "What I actually meant to say was, if this time, next time, someday in the future, we can't beat the opponent, and you have the chance to survive, why not join him and live on."

Amina asked: "Are you that pessimistic?"

"Not exactly pessimistic," Wang Jixuan gazed at the universe.

It was deep in the night, with starlight faintly visible.

This war will start at dawn.

Wang Jixuan said, "If we were only facing a group of strong enemies with opposing stances and conflicting interests, I wouldn't worry much, but these guys we're facing, they've just now shown a bit of their tail, Ye Zi is only one of them, I already feel quite troubled."

Little Amina shrugged, "I also have a temper, joining him would be worse than killing me."

"It's better to adapt to circumstances, as long as the mountains remain, there will always be wood to burn."

Wang Jixuan heard the rumble of explosions.

In the distant night sky, there was a sudden flash of light, and then a mushroom cloud rose up.

Wang Jixuan said, "Let's create a tactical plan."

"Tactical plan?"

"Yes, later you and Nierdamon will join forces to try to kill those three old spiritual cultivators. I will hide first and look for Ye Zi's whereabouts."

Wang Jixuan said:

"I want to capture her and ask where my second life went.

"Her Outer Golden Core Dao should have been given to her in my second life... I was quite bad, passing down a cultivation method and even giving a low-tier Outer Golden Core.

"But this can prove they definitely had interaction.

"The plan is simple: feign attack in the east and attack in the west. You attract their attention while I go around to cut off their retreat."

"Alright," Amina spun around, accompanied by bits of starlight, and restored to her larger form.

She asked, "Should we separate now?"

"Yes, I won't show up for the time being. You should go back, and it's best to meet with Lao Fu."

"I'll release Mu Dan... "

"No need. If the human camp needs her, Mu Dan can take on the role of the commander of the autonomous mechanical body at any time and follow Lao Fu's direction."

"Alright, any other instructions?"

Wang Jixuan carefully sensed.

His spiritual sense did not react.

Spiritual sense is only the cultivator's intuitive reaction to their situation; it's a forewarning of the Dao they cultivate. The fact that it didn't respond now means Wang Jixuan should not encounter acute danger in his upcoming plan.

But spiritual sense cannot preemptively alert every danger.

When there is a spiritual sense warning, there is surely danger; no warning doesn't mean there's no danger.

"Take care of yourself."

"Alright," Amina looked at Wang Jixuan's side profile.

Suddenly, she moved forward, attempting a quick peck on Wang Jixuan's cheek, swift as lightning.

Master Wang reflexively turned and stepped back, striking with a Wind and Thunder Movement; suddenly, a vast amount of thunder illuminated half of the sky dome, directly drawing spiritual energy from within a hundred miles.

Fortunately, by now Amina's strength had almost returned to her peak, and she shielded herself timely with starlight.

When Master Wang realized she might have just wanted a stealthy kiss, Amina had already been knocked away by thunder light, her own starlight flickering uncertainly.

"Uh, um..."

Master Wang rubbed his nose with his hand.

Amina wasn't hurt, but she looked extremely embarrassed, and even in her normally unemotional larger form, her fair face blushed slightly, before she turned and escaped directly.

Master Wang clicked his tongue.

He proved with his actions his fidelity in love.

Yes, an iron-clad fidelity.

The Daoist turned, using an escape skill, starting to closely observe this time's Blade Beast activity range. Taking out a specialized communicator, he somewhat sheepishly contacted Lingtong for a few words.

This Blade Beast disaster was unexpectedly severe for Wang Jixuan.

Master Wang thought carefully and still felt he could not let the enemy act so recklessly. He secretly released the Dragon Python Soul, suddenly remembering something.

When he broke through the Nascent Soul realm, the Dragon Python Soul had autonomously returned to him. His second battle puppet, that Gallino, was still recuperating in the Blade Beast's lair, and he didn't know its precise condition.

While the actual battle hadn't started, taking a round there was also convenient as it was Ye Zi's stronghold.

Clink clink.

Wang Jixuan found a stone crevice to reveal his presence, taking out the communicator for a look.

[Lingtong (Eloquent Speaker): Later I might have to pilot the Super Large Mecha, feeling a bit nervous.]

[Wang Zheng (Demon Spy): Don't worry, I'll protect you from the shadows, remember to send me your location.]

[Lingtong: I'm just a backup, don't worry about me.]

[Wang Zheng: Of course, I'm not worried; my commander is invincible!]

[Lingtong: Being second to none is okay, invincible is too much.]

[Wang Zheng: Eh, is this what I think—a wordplay?]

[Lingtong:?]

[Wang Zheng: Ah, I see a King-level Blade Beast, off to lay a Gu on it, slipping away now.]

Inside the softly-lit transport vehicle, Lingtong, dressed in a silver-white form-fitting pressure suit, looked at the words on the square screen in his hand, revealing a gentle smile.
