Oh no! I'm surrounded by the main characters!

Upon hearing this, the magic crystal trembled slightly, as if nodding in agreement with Dr. Shi.

"We exist in the fifth dimension, so we are more than capable of opening such extradimensional spaces."

Within the magic crystal, the voice emanating from the evil wood carried a hint of smugness, after all, the dark domain in which their Shadow Protectors existed was a fifth dimension independent of reality.

The other-dimensional space where the Phoenix Clan's sacred land is located and the fifth dimension of the Black Domain are similar in that they are different in that they can both travel between the Black Domain and the other dimension.

"Oh?"

Dr. Shi did not immediately agree upon hearing this, but instead sat on the sofa and pondered silently.

He wasn't doubting whether what Evilwood said was true or false. After all, not to mention that the power that Evilwood and the other Shadow Protectors had shown him over this period of time was indeed amazing, Evilwood had no reason to lie to him about such a matter.

"So, what do I need to give in return?"

Dr. Shi squinted and voiced his doubts. As the businessman who founded the Tiantianhao Group, he never believed in free lunches.

Now that Evilwood has offered to help him open the door to that other-dimensional space, he doesn't believe there's no reward involved.

"Haha! Doctor, you are indeed cautious."

A burst of laughter emanated from within the magic crystal. As the laughter gradually subsided, the evil wood's voice returned.

"Rest assured, Doctor, we have no other purpose. Our only goal is to have you provide a drop of your blood to become our master."

As for this offer, consider it a demonstration of our sincerity in cooperating. After all, if we were of no use, I imagine you wouldn't need us, Doctor, right?

Upon hearing Evilwood's explanation, Dr. Shi remained silent for two seconds, then burst into laughter.

He then stood up, leaning on the scepter, straightened his suit, turned to look at the magic crystal, snorted coldly, and slightly raised his chin.

"That's well said. In that case, let me see your sincerity."

However, one thing is certain: once the gate to that other-dimensional space opens, the rest will be handled by my subordinates; you won't need to interfere anymore.

Dr. Shi glanced at the magic crystal behind him and spoke, explaining that he had opened the portal to the other-dimensional space to search for the Phoenix Crystal that might be hidden within.

He was also a little worried that with the opening of the interdimensional portal, these mysterious beings might also try to seize the Phoenix Crystal after discovering its power.

"Haha, don't worry, Doctor, we are the most trustworthy."

"Our job is only to open the gate to that other dimension for you; the rest is up to your subordinates."

As Emu's hoarse, low voice faded, the space within the villa rippled once more. Amidst these spatial fluctuations, the magic crystal vanished from the room in the blink of an eye.

Upon hearing that Evilwood had agreed to his conditions, Dr. Shi finally smiled and returned to the communicator.

"Ye Qing".

"Yes, Doctor, what's the next step?"

Ye Qing heard the long-silent communicator respond again and immediately replied seriously.

"Hidden within this place of the phoenix totem is an alternate dimension, and the phoenix crystal, one of the Four Spirit Crystals, is very likely hidden there."

"Immediately notify Ao Tian that someone will help him open the gate to this space shortly, allowing him to enter this other-dimensional space. Make sure to find the Phoenix Crystal; if necessary, use the potion I gave him."

Upon hearing Dr. Shi say that he would send people again, Ye Qing was momentarily stunned, after all, the guys Dr. Shi had sent before were still lying in the hospital.

Now Dr. Shi says someone will come to help them. Regardless of whether there is enough time, even if there is, she finds it hard to believe who Dr. Shi has found this time.

"Yes, I understand."

These thoughts only flashed through her mind briefly. Although she had some doubts, Ye Qing immediately nodded to Dr. Shi on the other end of the communicator.

Now that Dr. Shi has made his decision, his subordinates will simply carry it out.

He glanced at Yi Feiyang and the others behind him, then quietly made his way into the nearby jungle, took out a flare gun, and fired it.

As the signal was sent, a tremor soon swept through the woods, and a figure as agile as a wild beast darted and weaved across the tree trunks before finally landing beside Ye Qing.

With a full mane, protruding teeth, and sharp wolf claws, it was Ao Tian in his werewolf form.

"What's wrong? Why are you suddenly signaling me to come over?"

After arriving beside Ye Qing, Ao Tian transformed back into human form and asked,

Ye Qing shook her head and briefly told Ao Tian what she had just communicated with Dr. Shi.

"Another dimension?"

After listening to Ye Qing's description, Ao Tian looked completely bewildered, clearly knowing nothing about this so-called alternate dimension.

But when he heard that Dr. Shi was going to send them help, he frowned and looked up at the surrounding mountains, his face full of doubt.

"Is it too late?"

"do not know."

Faced with Ao Tian's questioning, Ye Qing decisively shook her head, then turned to look behind her, at the location of the phoenix totem.

"The phoenix totem is just ahead. Regardless of whether it hides an alternate dimension as the doctor said, we should give it a try."

However, Yi Feiyang and the villagers are guarding the phoenix totem. If we let them stay there, our operation might not be so easy. What do you plan to do?

Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Ao Tian let out a howl like a wild wolf, pondered for a moment, and then made a decision.

"Go back first, and then just say that I injured you when you weren't looking and then ran away."

As for these villagers, leave them to me.

Upon hearing Ao Tian's plan, Ye Qing seemed to silently breathe a sigh of relief, then nodded and headed down the mountain.

Ao Tian waited for a while, calculated that the time should be about right, then twisted his neck, and his whole body instantly swelled up, transforming back into a savage and ferocious werewolf form.

"Waaah—"

A wolf's mournful howl echoed through the air, followed by a leap as Ao Tian landed on all fours and began to venture deeper into the distance.

Before the phoenix totem, Yi Feiyang heard a sudden wolf howl behind him, and a bad feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

Then he went to the village chief who was praying in front of the totem and whispered, "Grandpa village chief, I think I just heard a wolf howl. Let's leave first."

“Alas, we have lived in these mountains for decades, but we have never seen wolves in these mountains.”

But the old village chief waved his hand, completely disregarding the wild wolves Yi Feiyang mentioned.

"No wolves?"

Yi Feiyang was taken aback by the village chief's words, but he had indeed just heard a wolf howl.

The next moment, he seemed to realize that even if there were no wolves in the mountains, there was a werewolf among the people they had brought with them.

"Oh no, Grandpa Village Chief, it's..."

Yi Feiyang's expression changed instantly, but before he could finish speaking, a gray figure suddenly darted out from the nearby woods.

Some villagers noticed the commotion and quickly turned around, only to be met with several sharp wolf claws.

Chapter 151 Ao Tian's True Purpose

"what--!"

With a piercing scream, before the villager could even see the enemy clearly, gruesome bloody scars instantly appeared on his face and chest.

The villager stumbled and fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands, blood dripping from between his fingers.

"Who goes there!"

Upon seeing that some villagers were injured, the remaining villagers were taken aback and hurriedly tried to grab their weapons to fight off the suddenly appearing enemy.

But Ao Tian, ​​who suddenly appeared, was extremely fast in his werewolf form. He moved on all fours like a real wild beast, leaping left and right on the ground and the surrounding tree trunks.

laugh--!

laugh--!

As a strong gust of wind swept by, Ao Tian's figure darted back and forth, and in a short while, several villagers had been seriously injured.

"Village chief, quickly get everyone together."

Seeing the increasing number of wounded around him, Yi Feiyang quickly shouted. He had recognized the werewolf in front of him as the one they had previously imprisoned when Ao Tian appeared.

Yi Feiyang was also taken aback by the sudden appearance of Ao Tian, ​​not only because Ao Tian, ​​who had been imprisoned by them, had suddenly appeared here, but also because he was shocked by the strength that Ao Tian had displayed.

Although they had known for a long time that Ao Tian could transform into a werewolf, they never had a clear understanding of Ao Tian in his werewolf form.

The only memory I have is of the time when Ao Tian tried to sneak into their house at night to steal the crystal, but was almost crushed to death by Luo Chuan with one hand.

The fact that Ao Tian was easily overwhelmed by Luo Chuan in his werewolf form led Yi Feiyang and the others to underestimate Ao Tian's strength. Furthermore, Ao Tian's subsequent obedient imprisonment and refusal to escape further solidified their belief that Ao Tian's strength was actually not very high.

But it wasn't until now that Yi Feiyang realized that although Ao Tian was easily crushed by Luo Chuan with one hand, it only showed that Luo Chuan was strong, not that Ao Tian was weak. As for his behavior after being locked up, it was obviously a disguise to deceive them.

"So he's been pretending all this time for... the Phoenix Crystal?"

Having figured out Ao Tian's disguise and why he had suddenly been exposed today, Yi Feiyang instantly understood Ao Tian's purpose. He then turned to look at the tall phoenix totem standing in the woods beside him.

Even though he understood what Ao Tian's purpose was, he had no way to stop Ao Tian.

"My God! Who are these guys?"

The old village chief, still shaken, looked around. His village had lived in seclusion for decades without any major incidents, yet in just a few days, one strange thing after another had occurred within the sacred land.

In their panic, they could only press their withered fingers together in front of their chests and mutter to themselves, as if praying that the sacred bird they had worshipped for generations would come to their rescue.

"Village chief, quickly get everyone together."
