Chapter 214 Unrivaled [Part 1]

Above the boundless blue sky.

A white airplane silently glided through the clouds, leaving two clear contrails in its wake.

In a corner of the cabin, Xie Yun sat by the window.

She was in her early twenties, with long hair cascading down her shoulders, and brown glasses that concealed her slightly tired eyes and brows.

The faint light from the laptop screen shone on her face.

She shouldn't be here.

With her studies not yet finished and the holidays far off, she should normally still be in a foreign library, browsing through documents.

But the State of Yu has changed.

The human rights system was established, and information about secret fighters was released.

Even across the ocean, this thunderbolt struck precisely on the head of every citizen of Yu.

Her first reaction upon receiving the news abroad was disbelief, followed by repeated confirmations until all sources pointed to the same conclusion.

It's not fake.

Her family made arrangements faster than she hesitated, urging her to return immediately.

There are many people like her.

With very few exceptions, no family that has the means to send their children to study abroad is slow to react.

They have a keener sense of timing than anyone else, and they know better than anyone else how to seize opportunities.

The announcement of the Secret Warriors and the establishment of the Human Alliance.

Smart people can see that there's no future in staying outside.

After all, no country dares to openly teach secret martial arts.

It is even more impossible for them to impart their knowledge unconditionally.

On the contrary, they will blockade, monopolize, and use all means to lock supernatural power in the hands of a few.

Compared to superhuman strength, money, high-paying jobs, and impressive resumes are nothing.

With extraordinary power, everything is within reach.

This is a power that originates from within itself.

It is far more stable than power gained through the framework of a social system.

"But—does this extraordinary power truly exist?"

She spoke softly to herself, her voice so soft it was almost swallowed by the sound of the plane's engines.

It's no wonder she had such thoughts.

As someone who grew up in the soil of materialism, a trace of hesitation and doubt still remained deep in her heart.

She wouldn't have been in such a hurry to come back if her family hadn't taken a firm stance.

Just as she was pondering this...

The fuselage suddenly shuddered.

It wasn't the kind of subtle, habitual turbulence, but rather the entire cabin seemed to sink down, as if pressed down from above by an invisible hand.

Someone cried out in surprise, and the coffee cup slipped off the tray.

"Ladies and gentlemen, our plane is passing through an area of ​​unstable airflow, and there may be some turbulence."

Please return to your seat immediately and fasten your seatbelt. Passengers using the restroom, please hold onto the handrails.

We will provide you with an update as soon as possible. Thank you for your cooperation.

The announcement came on, and the flight attendant's voice remained relatively calm.

Faced with this situation, apart from a few people muttering curses under their breath, no one said anything.

"Oh my god, Ah-Yun, look what this is!"

A hushed gasp arose beside her.

It's Liu Xiao.

Her baby-faced best friend, her childhood classmate, and her study abroad companion.

At this moment, Liu Xiao's face was almost pressed against the porthole glass, holding up the high-speed camera she had bought at a great price, with the lens pointed intently out the window.

Her expression made Xie Yun's heart skip a beat.

It wasn't curiosity about seeing something new, but rather a kind of bewilderment after being stunned.

Xie Yun looked in the direction she pointed.

outside the window.

A vast sea of ​​clouds.

In the distance, there was a broken cloud, the trace of which looked fresh, as if something had just passed through it.

The swirling clouds had not yet closed up, their edges shattered by something.

But nothing more.

There are all kinds of clouds in the sky, so it's not anything strange.

She frowned slightly.

Before she could even speak, Liu Xiao had already shoved the camera in front of her.

"Look!"

Xie Yun's gaze fell on the screen.

Then his body stiffened.

In the footage, deep within the clouds, a blurry, crimson-gold figure is seen passing by.

The thing resembled neither a bird nor any flying machine; its outline was so blurred that it was almost just a human-shaped streak of light.

But just looking at a photo carries a certain oppressive feeling that makes you instinctively hold your breath.

The shutter speed was pushed to its limit, but the image still only showed a broken trail and a few torn moments.

It's worth noting that Liu Xiao bought this ultra-high-speed camera to capture the moment a bullet pierces a water balloon.

It can achieve tens of thousands of frames per second.

As a result, the footage could only capture this much.

Just how fast was that person moving?

"Could that be a secret martial artist?"

I was reminded of that news from a few days ago.

The two looked at each other in bewilderment.

For the people of Yu, the news of the Secret Warriors was no longer a secret.

Even though other countries impose information blockades, some people can still access the information released by the Yu Kingdom.

At this moment, this thought naturally came to mind.

"Secret warrior."

Xie Yun muttered something.

The eyes behind the lenses burst forth with an unprecedentedly intense light.

She had initially been somewhat skeptical about the existence of the Ganmi martial artists.

But the current situation undoubtedly proves that times have completely changed, and the Secret Warriors are indeed real.

Once you understand this...

The desire for extraordinary power in my heart was stronger than ever before.

No one can remain indifferent to such a situation.

She was no exception.

Above the clouds, a crimson-gold figure tore through the sky, like a falling meteor traveling against the current, traversing the heavens.

The figure had long since disappeared into the distance, and several seconds later, a series of belated sonic booms erupted behind it.

The turbulent air currents tore through the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters, creating visible white turbulence.

Even though they had already avoided the location and maintained a certain distance.

A plane flying below was still being swept up by the turbulence, shaking violently, with its cabin lights flickering.

The figure was none other than Hu Long, who had left triumphantly after dealing with the Purple Gold Empire's delegation.

Within minutes, he had already stepped out of the territory of the Yu Kingdom, leaving the border far behind.

The wind pressure at high altitude was as if Hu Long was being sliced ​​by an invisible blade when he encountered his protective aura.

A long trail of air was left behind him.

Now that our strength has increased.

He can now do several things he had originally planned to do.

There are three things so far.

First, the Heavenly Father of the Kingdom of Loke, the creator of the Black Reef.

This person had once chased after him, and most likely still possesses one of the twelve zodiac magical artifacts, the Dog.

Second, the stone man from Lai Kingdom founded the Church of Our Lady.

Third, the Purple Gold Empire, and the knight commander whose aura was strange and who seemed to have some connection with the sun.

The first one, the Father of the Black Reef, will be put on hold for now.

According to the intelligence he possessed, that person had been defeated in battle against Yu Kongting, Ling Xuzi, and others.

They then used some means to move themselves, most likely hiding in that so-called Ilya's Otherworld Kingdom.

That is, within the blessed land.

With his current abilities, he really doesn't have any good solutions for the other party hiding in the blessed land.

At most, it would destroy the real-world anchor point where the blessed land is located, causing that blessed land to detach from the real world and become an isolated island.

But that would also cause the Dog's magical tools to be lost, which is not what he wants to see.

As for that one from the Purple Gold Empire...

Hu Long knew that he was in seclusion to break through his cultivation, but he didn't know his exact location.

It's not that he can't find out. With his current methods, he could capture a vice-commander of the Knights of the Round Table, interrogate him, and then use his third-person perspective—like a human radar—to sense the truth. With some time, he could eventually find the person hiding in the shadows.

But he didn't want to do that.

Among all known martial arts practitioners in the world, none have yet reached the fifth stage of the Yuan Dan realm, the Taiyin realm.

He needs that person to break through.

Only when the opponent successfully breaks through to a higher level can he download the app and elevate his own strength to the next level.

To truly reach the pinnacle of martial arts in this world.

So even if he could find it, he wouldn't disturb the other person's breakthrough.

On the contrary, he was hoping that his opponent would make a breakthrough soon.

Therefore, only the stone man from the Lai Kingdom remains.

Thinking of this.

Hu Long recalled the intelligence report that the Yu Kingdom's think tank had submitted after analysis.

The person in the stone is very likely from tens of thousands of years ago.

He had received confirmation of this from Losa, the nightmare worm he had crushed.

Because the other party didn't know anything about the man in the stone.

This is enough to prove that the person in the stone has existed for a very long time.

That guy has a lot of secrets hidden inside.

As a humanoid life form, it possesses sufficient intelligence and cutting-edge high technology.

Of course, putting everything else aside, the fact that it spans tens of thousands of years is enough to pique Hu Long's interest.

If it's true, then it's a creature that has lived for tens of thousands of years.

An ordinary person's lifespan is no more than a hundred years. Even with his current physical strength and level of life, he would only live for a thousand years at most.

Ten thousand years.

That was an insurmountable barrier.

He wanted a way to prolong his life.

Even if all else fails, the groundbreaking technologies they possess are still quite impressive.

Thinking about this...

Hu Long raised his hand and placed the Rabbit Magic Tool over his face.

A cold light shone from the patterns on the mask, instantly spreading throughout the entire body.

The surrounding air suddenly shattered, as if a vacuum had appeared for a moment.

Hu Long's speed increased again, and he transformed into a straight line of fire, cutting through the sea of ​​clouds and hurtling straight ahead.

The distance from Yanjing to Lai State is over 10,000 kilometers.

Even the fastest passenger planes need to fly above the clouds for more than ten hours.

With Hu Long exerting all his strength, the clouds below seemed to be fast-forwarded, rolling and tearing backward in large swaths.

Vanished.

All he could hear was the muffled sound of the wind being crushed.

He arrived at his destination in just about an hour.

Ten thousand meters above the border of Lai.

Hu Long stands suspended above the sea of ​​clouds, with an endless white ocean surging beneath his feet and a cold, clear dark blue night sky above.

Because of its geographical location, it was already nighttime below this place.

Below the clouds.

On the earth, patches of dazzling light spread out, like a galaxy fallen to earth—the continuous city lights of Lai Kingdom.

However, the darkness was like a transparent veil to him, having no effect whatsoever.

In an instant, his gaze pierced through the thick clouds below, the city's high-rises, and the reinforced concrete walls, stripping away layer by layer until they became transparent and nothingness.

His gaze swept across the entire land.

Then, it suddenly stopped and locked onto one of the spots.

It was a humanoid silhouette made of pure blue light, the energy so dense it was almost viscous.

As the flames flickered, the surrounding air distorted slightly.

This level of power fluctuation was far stronger than any Yuan Dan realm cultivator he had ever encountered.

Around him were several figures comparable to those at the Yuan Dan level.

See here.

Hu Long's figure shot upwards at lightning speed.

It rose another several tens of kilometers.

We have reached the top of the stratosphere.

Then, his body's internal energy enveloped him like a tidal wave, and like a crimson-gold meteorite, trailing a long tail of flame, he plummeted rapidly toward the very center of the dark blue sea of ​​light below.

A few minutes ago.

Lai is a vast expanse of forest, covering an area of ​​nearly one billion hectares.

Ketonslin, one of the largest forest farms in the country, has most of its area covered by dense, sparsely populated forests.

But at this moment, a large area in a certain part of the forest has been cleared out.

The vacated land was brightly lit.

Clusters of high-powered floodlights tore through the darkness, illuminating it like daytime.

On the ground, a huge crater was clearly visible. Construction machinery roared to life, its steel arms clashing and swinging under the lights.

The workers were all focused on their tasks.

But upon closer inspection, you'll find that each face wears the same stiff smile, with empty, numb eyes, like puppets on strings, exuding no trace of human life.

Gloria, dressed in a white robe, stood on the steps above, her expression calm, looking down into the pit.

There is a monster encased in amber.

It stands three meters tall, covered in black scales, and has wings on its back.

This is a forbidden life form.

The biological warfare weapons created by the Daya civilization were also a contingency plan left for the civilization's revival.

There are many forbidden life forms buried throughout Earth, but the most concentrated place is the country of Lai where she is located.

So far, including the one in front of her, she has excavated nearly twenty bodies.

Although due to the passage of time and geological changes.

It has been damaged to some extent.

However, even the weakest of them, when calculated, possessed combat power at the Yuan Dan realm level.

Once all one hundred forbidden life forms in Lai are awakened, we can continue to conquer other regions.

Faced with hundreds of beings comparable to those at the Yuan Dan realm, this civilization currently has no way to stop them.

She raised her hand, and the boulder lying at the bottom of the pit seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, flying up and landing beside her.

She stretched out her slender palm and pressed it onto the amber-colored stone.

Click.

The stone surface is cracked.

The next second, the black monster suddenly opened its eyes.

His blood-red pupils split open, and red patterns lit up all over his body.

Lines of green data flowed past my eyes.

"Target authentication successful. We have met the Seed of Civilization Executor."

The obscure language came from the monster's mouth.

Then, it knelt down on one knee.

Its damage level was relatively low, and the aura emanating from its body was comparable to that of a third-stage Yuan Dan cultivator.

In this regard.

Gloria was very satisfied.

She was about to say something.

suddenly.

She frowned slightly.

A feeling of being spied on arose out of nowhere.

Then it vanished in an instant.

She turned her head sharply, her gaze like a knife, towards the direction from which the gaze had come.

A flash of azure light appeared in his eyes, but he couldn't catch anything.

See here.

She looked away, preparing to continue the awakening ritual.

suddenly.

A ray of light shone down.

She suddenly looked up and stared intently at the night sky.

At the same time.

In Lai, in several nearby cities, people who were still awake looked up from their streets.

After seeing it clearly.

Everyone's faces turned horrified.

Simply because they were in their sights.

A huge gap was torn open in the cumulus clouds overhead.

A bright, golden sun crashed down from the sky!

It illuminates the night as if it were daytime.

The surrounding air and clouds were ignited, and visible ring-shaped shock waves exploded outwards, one after another, shattering the clouds several kilometers away into pieces like tattered cloth.
