âArray Eye Number One, Ao Shengâs clone in position.â
âArray Eye Number One, theyâre here! I see Frost Ferret, Xu Xiaoshou, and another woman⊠she seems familiar. Iâll check.â
âArray Eye Number One, theyâve stopped above the cliff. Iâm currently below Black Water Stream. Hallmaster Dao. Let me challenge them to test the waters!â
âVermilion Bird Range, Yu Zhiwen in position. Ao Sheng, please return. Xu
Xiaoshou isnât someone you can handle alone.â
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position! Ao Shengâs clone, please wait for reinforcements. Do not attempt to face them aloneâŠâ
âArray Eye Number One, Iâm out! Frost Ferret canât take me down. I wield the power of the Rock Upanishad. Iâll delay them until reinforcements from red and white-clothed people arrive.â
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position! Ao Shengâs clone, please waitâŠâ
âWhat was that sound?â
âHmm? Whatâs happened? Was that an explosion?â
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position! Everyone, remember to report in before speaking, or itâll be too chaotic⊠Array Eye Number One, report in! Array Eye Number One, report in!â
âSizzleâŠâ âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position! Speak, Ao Shengâs clone!â
âSizzleâŠâ
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position! Ao Sheng, whatâs happening? Speak!â
After these two inquiries, the communication channel of the Heavenly Group fell silent.
Everyone awaited the words of Ao Shengâs clone, who had gone out for a âtest.â But at this moment, even Ao Sheng himself remained silent.
On the Azure Dragon Range, atop the Azure Dragon Golden Tower.
Ao Sheng, the newly appointed Spirit Division Chief, suddenly convulsed. His eyes bulged, veins pulsating on his forehead, and blood spurted from his seven orifices.
âAhh!!!â
Clutching his head, he let out a piercing scream, his body contorting in agony like a boiled shrimp, rolling down from the towerâs peak.
Crashing thunderously onto the ground, he writhed with his head in his hands, as if suppressing unimaginable pain.
Despite the heavy breaths, he gritted his teeth, unwilling to release even a hint of a cry, except for that sharp scream earlier.
But that single screamâŠ
None in the Heavenly Groupâs communication channel were deaf; everyone heard it!
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position. Ao Sheng, speak! Did you hear that?â âVermilion Bird Range, Yu Zhiwen in position. Ao Sheng, are you alright?â
Beneath the Azure Dragon Golden Tower, Ao Sheng activated his communicator but quickly moved it away. After coughing up blood, he brought it closer.
His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, his expression gruesome, yet his tone was oddly calm:
âAzure Dragon⊠Range, this is⊠Ao Sheng.â
âNo major issues⊠occurred,â he continued, âMy dragon clone⊠well, perished in battle. There are three opponents⊠cough.â
The Heavenly Groupâs communication channel fell silent once more.
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position. Ao Sheng, why is your speech so intermittent?â
âVermilion Bird Range, Yu Zhiwen in position. He might have suffered a backlash?â
âWhite Tiger Range, Xi, in position. Ao Sheng, donât force it. Youâre currently the only one who has encountered Xu Xiaoshou. Quickly report his information, donât omit anything.â
Beneath the Azure Dragon Golden Tower, Ao Sheng wiped the blood from his eyes, gazing into the distant sky with a hint of dread.
Swallowing hard, he felt better as the elixirâs effects eased his pain. With difficulty, he said:
âI am Ao Sheng. My clone has fallen in battle.â
âXu Xiaoshou used a special technique. There was no spiritual source fluctuation, yet he instantly drained my dragon cloneâs power of the Dragon Pearl and energy reserve spiritual source.â
âHe definitely possesses the power to kill a higher void-level being!â
âXi! Your Transformation Divisionâs intelligence is severely lacking. I was nearly killed by your negligence. Without the knowledge of a demi-saint, no one can stop Xu Xiaoshou!â
âSo, how did you die?â Xiâs voice echoed.
Ao Shengâs body trembled. âHe not only drained my spiritual source but also sucked away my dragon clone⊠I, I lost controlâŠâ
âAnd then?â Yu Zhiwenâs voice chimed in.
âThenâŠâ
âAo Sheng, be mindful of what you say now; it concerns the lives of countless people in the Holy Divine Palace.â Xiâs voice grew solemn. âWhile we regret the sacrifice of your clone, his sacrifice was not in vain. We urgently need the most accurate firsthand information about Xu Xiaoshou.â
Ao Sheng stood before the Azure Dragon Golden Tower, silently listening. His gaze was incredibly hollow.
Gazing into the distance, his mind magnified the image of Xu Xiaoshouâs finger pressing against his forehead.
His future nightmares would likely revolve around that moment of mental collapse.
After a brief movement of his lips, Ao Sheng spoke, âXu Xiaoshou used a single fingerâŠâ
âDid he employ that special spiritual technique capable of killing the soul of God? Or some other Saint Martial Arts, like the Ten Sections of the Finger Sword?â Xi speculated when no further details were given.
âNo.â Ao Sheng suddenly felt irritated. unable to articulate the inexplicable.
âAo Sheng! Speak! Was your spirit defeated along with your clone?â Xiâs voice became increasingly intense.
âShut up! Youâre too noisy!â Ao Sheng roared, âXu Xiaoshou didnât use any spiritual technique; he just used a finger!â
âAnd then?â Xi also grew angry. Where was the rest of the information? How could someone withhold crucial information after a sacrifice?
âThatâs it!â Ao Shengâs rage was ready to burst from his eyes, âDamn youâŠâ âSilence!â Hallmaster Daoâs voice abruptly intervened.
âXi, stop asking. There might be no further âthenâ,â Yu Zhiwenâs voice rang out simultaneously, as she too realized something..
