Through the combat power detector hanging on his left eye, Xie Shen could see: at this moment, countless black mists were filling the metal room.

These black mists were created by the two women torturing each other.

"Ugh"

Thinking of this, Xie Shen couldn't help but sigh softly, with infinite emotion on his face.

Seeing that Xie Shen didn't say anything, the woman holding the torture instrument asked, "How did you get in from outside just now? Can't you speak?"

in the room.

Xie Shen shook his head helplessly and said to the two girls, "Hold on, there will be relief in the future."

After saying that, he displayed his ability of 'virtualization' in front of the two girls.

His entire body turned translucent and disappeared after blending into the wall of the tower prison.

At this moment, the two women in the room were completely anxious.

The woman who was in charge of the torture knelt down on the spot and yelled at the top of her lungs: "Don't leave! Are you still there?"

"You can hear me, right?"

"Can you take me out too?"

“I beg you.”

"As long as you can take me away, I can be your dog!"

As the woman spoke, she knelt on the ground without even thinking, as if begging Xie Shen for mercy.

But no matter how much she tried to show her affection, she never got a response from Xie Shen.

We are immortal.

Our torment will never end.
...

Outside the tower prison, you can see scattered pseudo-people walking around aimlessly.

As soon as Xie Shen came to the outside world, he was immediately targeted by those fake people.

There is no communication.

The moment they discovered Xie Shen, all the pseudo-humans took out their weapons at the same time and fired at Xie Shen.

At the critical moment, a flying sword was seen approaching from afar.

next second.

The flying sword flashed past all the pseudo-humans, and as it passed by, all the pseudo-human heads fell to the ground.

After easily destroying this group of fake people, Xie Shen waved his hand and the flying sword flew back to his hand.

He placed his hand on the combat power detector and urged Li Xiu who was far away in the space station: "I have already been released from the tower prison. Didn't they say they could take me back to the space station? Where is the spaceship?"

It wasn't Li Xiu who responded to Xie Shen.

The brain said: "Don't worry. The space station has already sent out four spacecraft. It is estimated that they will reach the surface in half a minute."

"Then there was a spaceship among them, and Li Xiu was driving it."

"I'm going to transfer you to his channel now, so you can communicate with him."

After saying this, the brain actively cut off the connection with Xie Shen.

Not long after.

Li Xiu's voice came from the headset.

He said calmly: "Xie Shen, can you hear me?"

"Yes." Xie Shen responded quickly.

"Look up, I'm here." Li Xiu said very quickly: "Can you see it?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Shen looked upwards.

But high in the sky, four spaceships were circling the Tower Prison, and surface-to-air missiles were fired at those spaceships from time to time.

Li Xiu continued, "The pseudo-humans have a surface-to-air missile system. The firepower is too dense. Our spacecraft can't even land on the ground."

"What should we do?" Xie Shen was stunned for a second before suggesting, "How about I just jump onto your spaceship and use my ability to transform into nothingness to get into the cockpit?"

"That's what I thought."

Li Xiu spoke very quickly.

He reminded Xie Shen, "Pay attention. I will let the wingman beside me dive to the ground first, and then you must not rush to jump on it."

"Those wingmen are there to die, to attract fire."

"Wait until the anti-aircraft missiles go after them, then I'll swoop down and pick you up."

"Got it!" The situation was critical at the moment. Xie Shen knew that there was no extra time to discuss tactics, so he gave a concise and clear response.

After receiving Xie Shen’s response.

next second.

The three spaceships in the sky all dived towards the ground at the same time.

As the spacecraft lowered its altitude, it naturally attracted more firepower, and more missiles were launched towards the three spacecraft.

"good chance!"

The wingman attracted nearly 90% of the firepower on the ground.

Li Xiu seized the opportunity and decisively controlled the fourth spaceship to dive towards the ground.

During this time, he did not forget to yell at Xie Shen: "Quick, get ready!"

"Roger that!"

on the ground.

Xie Shen bent his legs slightly.

He mobilized the spiritual power in his body to strengthen himself, and he was ready to go.

at the same time.

The spaceship driven by Li Xiu had also passed over Xie Shen's head.

Xie Shen seized this fleeting opportunity and jumped directly onto the spaceship.

After all, he is a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Even though the spacecraft was moving at an incredible speed, Xie Shen still held on to the raised part of the cockpit tightly.

air.

He used the combat power detector to yell at Li Xiu, "Hurry, slow down!"

"The acceleration is too great. I will be thrown out after using my virtualization ability!"

"Understood!" As soon as Xie Shen finished speaking, Li Xiu immediately slowed down the speed of the spacecraft.

At this moment, Xie Shen used his ability to become virtual without hesitation, and fell into the cockpit.

It's finally safe
Just at the moment Xie Shen entered the cockpit.

Only three loud roars were heard from below. The three wingman planes that were covering Li Xiu had been destroyed by surface-to-air missiles.

"What a shame." Xie Shen said with a sad face, "In less than a minute, we lost three spaceships in a row."

“That’s a shame.”

"It's worth it." Li Xiu said expressionlessly, "As long as we can successfully bring the black chip in your hand and the statue sketch back to the space station, our operation will not be a loss."

"alright."

In the cockpit.

After relaxing, Xie Shen couldn't help but chat with Li Xiu: "The four spaceships that came to pick me up this time were really fast."

"Is this a D-model spacecraft?"

"Yes." Li Xiu introduced: "The D-3 combat spacecraft is the latest model of the space station."

"In terms of speed, the D3-type spacecraft is more than twice that of the A-type, more than four times that of the B-type commercial spacecraft, and more than six times that of the C-type tugboat."

After chatting for a while, the spacecraft driven by Li Xiu soon successfully docked with the Tiangong Space Station.

"Please pilot synchronize the flight speed."

"Axial docking buffer."

"Spacecraft D3-001 has completed docking and the hatch has been opened."

After nearly half an hour of waiting, Xie Shen and Li Xiu finally opened the hatch of the orbital module of the spacecraft.

The man in the suit, Zhuge Fu, Mag, and the brain in the man in the suit's hand had been waiting in the service cabin for a long time.

Seeing Xie Shen return safely, everyone immediately focused their attention on Xie Shen.

The three brothers Bu Tianran, Ran Zhuyu and Qian Ming, who had always regarded themselves as disciples, rushed forward directly.

The three knelt down and bowed, "Disciple Bu Tianran (Ran Zhuyu/Qian Ming), respectfully welcomes Senior Xie back in triumph!"

"Get up."

Xie Shen made a fake supporting gesture, signaling the three to stand up.

He said in a clear voice: "Please, the three of you, go and tell the other monks in the space station: Let them know that I, Xie Shen, will give a lecture in a month. Anyone who has a heart for the Dao can go and listen. You can stay or leave as you wish. No one will force you."

Upon hearing this, Bu, Tianran and the other two looked at each other in tacit understanding.

All three of them looked happy.

Among them, Bu Tianran took the lead and bowed to Xie Shen, saying, "I will follow Senior Xie's order!"

Beside him, Ran Zhuyu and Qian Ming also knelt on the ground.

After some conversation.

Xie Shen went to the laboratory on the second floor of the space station with the man in the suit, Li Xiu, Zhuge Fu, and other cyborgs including Mag.

In the laboratory.

Li Xiu summarized to everyone present: "We gained a total of three things from our trip to the surface this time."

"First, a sketch of the statue."

"It's not clear what the specific value of this thing is. We can only say that it still needs to be developed and discussed."

“Then there are two other gains.”

“There is no dispute about these two gains.”

Li Xiu continued, "First, there is the black chip we got from the bunker. That is our escape route for all of humanity."

“I won’t stress how important it is.”

"Secondly, we discovered the secret that black mist can be transformed into white mist."

"This secret is just as important as the black chip."

"So."

Li Xiu glanced at Xie Shen, Mag and the others, and continued, "Now let's start rewarding people based on their merits."

——In addition to receiving a large number of points for this mission, Li Xiu also took out various high-tech equipment from the laboratory as rewards.

Not only that.

Because Li Xiu had previously promised:

As long as Xie Shen can successfully complete the task, he will have priority in enjoying the results of future research on black fog.

In view of this, he said to Xie Shen: "After a period of time, I will try to collect black mist from the space station, and then use the tumor to transform the collected black mist into white mist. Then, according to my previous promise, I will give priority to providing you with this white mist for your practice."

"Thank you very much." Xie Shen said happily when he heard that.

Li Xiu added: "The last one is the sketch of the statue."

"When I was in the Tower Prison, wasn't the sketch already 99% complete? Without further ado, I plan to finish the last stroke of the sketch now."

As he spoke, Li Xiu took out the statue sketch that Xie Shen brought back from the Tower Prison.

He held the pen in his right hand and made a gesture to start drawing on the sketch.
But just when Li Xiu was about to take action, countless blood began to flow out from his seven orifices.

Moreover, every time his right hand holding the pen moved, the blood would flow out twice as fast.

It was as if some unknown mysterious force was preventing him from completing the painting.

Li Xiu didn't care about this.

He endured the damage caused by the mysterious power and stubbornly wanted to finish the last stroke of the sketch.
'puff'!
After about two or three seconds, Li Xiu suddenly spurted out a large pool of blood from his mouth.

His head tilted and he died suddenly on the spot.

As for the sketch of the statue, unfortunately, even though Li Xiu had burned out his life, he still wasn't able to finish the last stroke.

[The resurrected person, Li Xiu, was born on March 1980, 3 at 13:9, in Asia, and is a Chinese.]

In the laboratory.

Accompanied by a burst of electronic synthesized sound, Li Xiu was immediately resurrected at the moment of death.

After coming back to life, he changed his mindset.

He looked at Xie Shen and said, "Why don't you try and see if you can use your spiritual power to finish the last stroke of this painting."

"Okay." Xie Shen nodded and walked forward.

In light of Li Xiu's previous experience, in order to prevent himself from dying suddenly, Xie Shen deliberately made his movements unusually slow.

He mobilized the spiritual power in his body to strengthen himself.

Then, he carefully placed the paintbrush on the sketch paper.

Xie Shen didn't even dare to make any movement. He just placed the tip of the pen on the drawing paper. After a few seconds, the spiritual power in his body began to be consumed at an incredible speed.

In just a blink of an eye, all the spiritual energy in Xie Shen's purple palace was cleared out.

After realizing something was wrong, he quickly threw away the paintbrush in his hand and fell to the ground with a pale face.

"Are you OK?"

Seeing this, Yang Si rushed forward and helped Xie Shen up.

The latter said with a lingering fear: "No, I can't do it."

"Even if I use up all my spiritual energy in one go, I still can't finish that painting."

“Since I can’t finish it”

Xie Shen concluded: "I dare say: Even if this painting is placed in the entire space station, no one can finish it."

this.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Fu, the man in the suit and others who were bystanders all showed strange expressions at the same time.

Zhuge Fu suggested: "Since we can't use human power to complete the painting, what about machines? Why not try to use machines to operate it?"

"Let's not do that." Li Xiu denied, "Have you forgotten your personal terminal?"

"You can tell without even thinking about it: the end result of operating it with a machine is that the whole machine will explode."

"It's not a big deal if we die. We can just use the resurrection spell to revive us."

"But if the machine explodes, the loss will be huge."

"That's true." Zhuge Fu frowned and said, "Then, is there really no other way?"

Li Xiu did not give a direct response.

He looked at Xie Shen and said, "If your strength improves further, such as breaking through the foundation-building stage and being promoted to..."

Xie Shen hurriedly reminded: "After the foundation is established, it is the golden elixir."

"Well." Li Xiu continued, "For example, if you advance to the Golden Core Stage, by then, are you sure you can finish the sketch of the statue?"

"I think so." Xie Shen thought for a moment and said, "The overall strength of a Jindan-stage cultivator is more than ten times that of a Foundation-building cultivator."

"If the combat effectiveness of a Foundation Establishment cultivator is 100-999, then the combat effectiveness of a Golden Core cultivator is 1000-9999."

“The gap is still quite large.”

“So I think by then, I should be able to handle it.”

"Okay, I got it." Li Xiu nodded and stopped obsessing over the sketch of the statue.

After their rewards were given according to their merits, Mag and other transformed people who had gained benefits left the laboratory one after another.

Seeing that most people had left, Xie Shen took the opportunity to ask Li Xiu.

"There's something I haven't figured out."

"If I remember correctly: the military bred you for the purpose of fighting against the Tower Prison that will appear in the future."

“And you were born in 1980.”

"In other words, the military knew about the tower prisons in the future long before 1980."

"So how did they know this in advance?"
