Chapter 341 Fighting from Afar: All Means Fatal (Part 2)
The plane continued its ascent, quickly covering 300 kilometers. The journey was uneventful, without any unusual events.

Clearly, all the major organizations and forces have received intelligence about the Illuminati's confrontation with Yi Beidou from afar.

Even with all the Elders of the Illuminati coming out in full force, plus the intervention of two Sleepers, they were still unable to intercept Yi Beidou. Instead, they exposed their own intelligence information, which made subsequent actions by the organization more cautious.

The plane will soon be entering the courthouse's sphere of influence.

"Your Majesty, shall we make a move and give it a try?"

A tall, burly man respectfully inquired of a kind-looking middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man was dressed in a Western monk's robe and held a very old and quaint book in his hand, resembling the image of a Western missionary in history.

Hearing the white burly man's words, the middle-aged man smiled slightly and said, "Even the Thunder King and Crystal working together couldn't stop this person, so I don't have the confidence to take him down by myself."

“You are different from them. If you want to help, we are all willing to sacrifice ourselves to assist you. It will only be martyrdom, abandoning this body and being reincarnated. If we can obtain the ultimate secret through this, we will all benefit from it.”

"It's a big, white man," the burly man said in a deep voice.

"No need. A person with a useful body should use it where it is needed."

"This person is heading west, probably to cooperate with the Investiture of the Gods Alliance. It seems we also need to find some partners we can temporarily cooperate with."

The middle-aged preacher said with a smile.

"Not long ago, someone from Yuanting contacted us, wanting to cooperate with us."

"The burly white man said in a low voice."

"Yuanting? They seem like a good potential partner."

The preacher nodded slightly.

Besides the tribunal, other factions are also discussing and weighing their options.

The Illuminati's defeat made them much more rational, as they needed to weigh the pros and cons of taking action.

This was certainly an opportunity, but Yi Beidou's actions were too sudden. They didn't have enough time to prepare or to unite with other forces. The probability of success for a single force was not high.

Many organizations ultimately chose to wait and see, and secretly began to contact other organizations to cooperate in order to enhance their competitiveness in the subsequent competition.

However, it's not that no other countries, organizations, or forces have other ideas. Without revealing the strength of the powerful, there are other means to intercept Yi Beidou's plane.

At this very moment, in a command center somewhere in Donghua.

Zhao Ping, along with several key officials from the Special Security Bureau, was in the command center, watching images transmitted from multiple screens and reports from staff.

"Currently, the Sky Eye system has detected signs of heavy weapons being launched from more than ten unmarked military bases. The targets should all be Chinese flight formations over the Mediterranean Sea. At present, it is still impossible to confirm the specific ownership of these military bases."

The staff member said in a deep voice.

"Proceed with the interception as planned, and move our fleet in the Atlantic towards the Mediterranean. We can't help with the attacks from those hidden monsters, but we must intercept all of these modern weapons to avoid any impact on the flight formation."

An elderly man with a stern face gave the order.

"The Star Kingdom's fleet is currently in the Mediterranean region; previously, their attitude towards our entry into the Mediterranean had been ambiguous."

The staff member said with some concern.

"Times have changed. It's no longer the time for them to be in charge and have their own opinions. Tell them that this is an important operation that we have obtained permission from many countries in the Mediterranean region. If they try to stop us, then they are our enemies. We will not be stingy with any weapons against our enemies, and we have never lacked the courage to fight to the death. Let them think it over."

The old man said calmly.

The times are changing dramatically. Since the Donghua Martial Arts Forum began, a wave of enthusiasm for martial arts and the evolution of life has swept the world. As a pioneer, Donghua's international influence has grown stronger and stronger.

The real turning point came not long ago in the Battle of Dongwang, where Yi Beidou defeated a force that modern firearms could not counter, completely reversing the international situation.

The Star Kingdom's influence is declining, and the fact that Donghua was able to obtain special permission from various countries along the Mediterranean coast within a single day for this space-breaking operation is the best example of this.

The old man concluded that it would be extremely unwise for the Star Kingdom to start a war with Donghua at this time.

They cannot resolve the threats posed by the long-standing monsters in the hidden world, but the Donghua Society will take on all threats from the secular world without any oversight.

This is the advantage of having a powerful organization behind you.

Otherwise, even if Yi Beidou is able to deal with attacks from clandestine entities, the aircraft itself probably wouldn't be able to withstand the large-scale explosions of modern weapons.

Soon the fighter jets had flown more than two thousand kilometers, and the entire journey was more than halfway over. Apart from the Illuminati, no other forces or Sleepers had made a move.

“Mr. Yi, it seems that you have successfully deterred those people from making any further moves by breaking their methods. I have just received intelligence from headquarters that those secret entities seem to have used secular power. Missiles have been launched from multiple secret bases around the world in an attempt to bring us down, but they have all been successfully intercepted by headquarters. Our journey from now on will probably be relatively peaceful.”

Looking at the blue sky and sea of ​​clouds in front of him, Wang Han smiled and chatted with Yi Beidou.

"Now is not the time to relax. The previous confrontation did have a certain deterrent effect, but precisely because of this, whoever strikes next will definitely make thorough preparations, and the level of danger will probably be incomparable to the previous attack."

Yi Beidou said.

"Understood, I will remain vigilant."

Upon hearing this, Wang Han's expression turned serious, and he spoke solemnly.

Yi Beidou is right. Crossing the Mediterranean Sea is more than 4,000 kilometers long and takes at least five hours. This is enough time for some secretive organizations to make full preparations.

Similar to the previous actions of the Illuminati, they were still not fully prepared.

If another attack occurs, it will likely be extremely dangerous.

After flying another 500 kilometers, nothing unusual was found. Throughout the journey, various organizations and countries on the ground were using every means to monitor the aircraft's movements.

"Is no one else making a move?"

"Could it be that even those who are asleep are powerless against Yi Beidou, and can only watch helplessly as he crosses over his own sphere of influence?"

"Don't worry, someone else will definitely make a move, and it will be a deadly one."

"."

Various factions are discussing it.

When the journey exceeds three thousand kilometers.

On the fighter jet.

Everything seems normal.

But Yi Beidou's expression suddenly hardened.

He always felt as if there were sounds coming from his ear.

It's normal to be surrounded by various noises at high altitudes and high speeds, but for a powerful individual like Yi Beidou, the source of any sound can be identified.

But if it were some kind of external intrusion, the demonic flames covering the aircraft shouldn't have been completely unaffected. *Ring ring!*
Suddenly, a clear, crisp bell sound rang out abruptly in Yi Beidou's mind.

The ringtone did not come from reality, nor was it transmitted through a normal magnetic field or energy channel. Instead, it seemed to come from some deeper and more vast place, directly bypassing all of Yi Beidou's defenses and entering his mind.

This feeling?

A sense of familiarity rose in Yi Beidou's heart.

Another place that does not exist in reality.

In the dark void, a dazzling river, as brilliant as the Milky Way, flows ceaselessly.

The long river of humanity.

Among the myriad wonders of the void, the most magnificent and boundless realm is where the thoughts of countless beings have converged over thousands of years, encompassing all the mysteries of the past and present.

As long as we live in the human world, our subconscious is inevitably connected to this long river of humanity.

Only highly accomplished spiritual practitioners can mobilize and influence even a trace of the power of the humanistic river through this channel to launch an attack, ignoring all magnetic fields and energy defenses to reach the mind directly, making it virtually impossible to defend against.

At this moment, a woman dressed in a plain white robe with pale skin floated above the River of Humanity, holding a string of ancient copper bells in her hand, which she was gently shaking.

This string of copper bells is not real, but a phantom magical artifact called the "Soul-Capturing Bells".

However, this spiritual treasure is different from the spiritual treasures in the hands of other ancient beings. This spiritual treasure has been refined into the heart by the Three Yin Goddess using a special method, and has become her "natal spiritual treasure".

As long as she has a thought, the magical treasure can vanish into nothingness and return to its original state. No one can take it away, and it can travel with her mind through the vast emptiness and enter many wondrous realms.

Ordinary spiritual treasures cannot be brought into the human realm by spiritual cultivators.

As the Three Yin Goddess shook the bell, it emitted a clear, ringing sound that echoed throughout this wondrous, ethereal realm. Ripples spread outwards, and even the ever-flowing River of Humanity showed faint ripples amidst the sonic vibrations.

Don't underestimate this tiny ripple. Any power capable of shaking the long river of humanity is of an exceptionally terrifying level, something that cannot be achieved simply by having cultivation and spiritual strength.

The Three Yin Goddess once attempted the path of divinity in a certain era. She was worshipped by a local deity, who gathered a large amount of incense and prayers into the Soul-Capturing Bell, successfully refining it into her natal spiritual treasure. This gave her a direct connection with the River of Humanity and a trace of power to shake the River of Humanity.

This ripple spread, and according to the mark given by the lotus, its influence was directly transmitted to Yi Beidou's mind.

The Soul-Capturing Bell, as its name suggests, possesses the power to intimidate the soul and seize the heart; it can even directly draw the human body's life magnetic field out of the body.

The ringtone expanded rapidly in Yi Beidou's mind, causing his now steely consciousness to momentarily waver and go blank.

Across the vast river of humanity, achieving this level of feat is practically the limit for the Three Yin Goddesses; it's unlikely to have a significant impact on Yi Beidou's soul.

But it would be enough to create even the slightest flaw in Yi Beidou's mind.

"I've finished my work, it's your turn."

The Three Yin Goddess said calmly.

No sooner had she finished speaking than a strange phenomenon appeared in the darkness of the void.

A lotus flower blooms from the darkness, its form seated gracefully on a lotus platform.

On the other side, a golden wheel spun, as if opening a spatial tunnel, and a man with a strong and imposing figure emerged.

"Hong Datong didn't make a move? We wanted to take action against his apprentice, but he remained unmoved. Could it be that your judgment is wrong?"

The burly man looked at Lotus and asked.

The two of them hid to the side to guard against a possible attack by Hung Tat-tung.

If the other party truly achieves true spiritual enlightenment and can stir up waves in the river of humanity, then if they target the other party's disciple, the other party is very likely to react.

However, it seems that the river of humanity is now calm and peaceful.

"Perhaps he thinks we can't succeed? He's probably not in full shape, and he probably won't make a move until the crucial moment."

"Alright, Your Majesty, you can protect us now. It's my turn to take action."

Lotus smiled and looked towards the River of Humanity.

Lotus, an important reincarnation of his at a certain period, once traveled to the Western Regions, founded a religion and spread the Dharma, and had a profound influence. His connection and influence on the long river of humanity was even stronger than that of the Three Yin Goddesses.

On the airplane.

As Yi Beidou was affected by the Soul-Capturing Bell, his consciousness entered a blank state, and the demonic flames enveloping the plane seemed to dim as well.

However, Yi Beidou quickly regained his senses and prepared to shake his divine sense to break through this covert method. Suddenly, an even stronger influence struck, making Yi Beidou feel dizzy.

In the darkness, a seven-colored ray of light stretched from afar, paving a road. Lotus flowers bloomed along the road, and a figure walked towards Yi Beidou, stepping on the lotus flowers.

The man was casually wrapped in coarse linen, which was stained with what looked like bloodstains, making him look almost like a shroud.

He had a gentle face, fair and full skin, a mustache, and a seemingly ambiguous smile on his face at all times.

Yi Beidou narrowed his eyes slightly. No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity. He had a similar feeling when he was attacked in a dream by the other party.

"Lotus, it's you again."

Yi Beidou said calmly.

"Young man, we meet again."

Lotus said with a smile.

"Last time you entered my dream, I shattered the illusion with a single thought. This time, my strength is even greater than before. Do you think you have a chance of success?"

Yi Beidou asked.

"Why do you think I used my full strength last time? I just wanted to test you and see if you were hiding anything."

“But this time is different. I think that if I put you in a life-or-death situation, what is hidden within you will come out on its own.”

Lotus's smile remained unchanged, but her words were chilling and icy.

"I don't have time to waste here with you."

Yi Beidou did not want to get entangled with Lotus. He was trapped in the illusion, which would weaken his control over reality. With the power of the demonic flame and the jade weakened, others might take advantage of the situation.

boom! !

Demonic flames burned around him, about to shatter the illusion and return him to reality.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I saw your master not long ago, don't you want to know what happened?"

Lotus remained unfazed, her smile unchanged.
