The warp tunnel has not yet fully closed.

The star ring on Lin Feng's right wrist vibrated wildly.

The panel popped open automatically, and a line of red text pierced his eyes.

[Lin Xiaoyu's Exclusive Channel - Highest Level SOS Signal]

Lin Feng's footsteps were rooted to the spot in the warp drive.

He set up this channel for Lin Xiaoyu.

The signal is divided into three levels: blue is normal communication, yellow is trouble, and red is life-threatening.

The moment the communication was connected, a series of explosions were heard.

"elder brother!"

Lin Xiaoyu's voice squeezed out from the noise, filled with gasps and sobs.

"Someone's attacking the warp drive! Shields, get ready..."

The signal was forcibly cut off.

Someone is interfering with the communication array.

Lin Feng stood in the middle of the teleportation tunnel, with the surrounding spatial light streams sweeping past him.

He looked down at the line of red text on the star ring, his arm trembling uncontrollably.

The dark gold bone shuttle hovered around him, humming.

Lin Feng brought up the star map.

The Blue Star Leap Ship's location was still near the orbit of Tianjiao Star, and the signal was intermittent, with each flash weaker than the last.

He calculated the distance.

Seven light-years.

The warp portal's original destination was the rest area of ​​the Empire's core star system, in the exact opposite direction.

Lin Feng did not hesitate.

He ripped open the barrier of the warp portal with both hands, spatial fragments tearing at his newly grown skin, and beads of purplish-gold blood scattered throughout the portal.

He forcibly reversed the warp direction.

With the blessing of the first-tier immortality, the spatial laws have become more than an order of magnitude faster.

The passage collapsed and was reconstructed, and new coordinates were locked in.

Two breaths.

The first thing he saw when he stepped out of the warp portal was fire.

The stern of the Blue Star warship is burning.

The medium-sized warp ship, specially approved by the Empire, was now covered in charred craters, its left engine destroyed, and the entire ship was slowly tumbling in orbit around Tianjiao Star.

The shield had only one layer left, and it was visibly flickering, on the verge of shattering.

The ships attacking the leap ship were seven light warships.

It had no Imperial designation and its hull was painted with a rough, grayish-black paint.

But Lin Feng recognized the ship type of two of them at a glance.

The Imperial standard-issue destroyer, the same type used by the Second Fleet.

The remnants of the Augustus family.

The seven warships formed a crescent-shaped encirclement and were focusing their fire on the warp drive's shield nodes.

At the very center of the formation, on the deck of a slightly larger flagship, stood a person.

A dark gold robe.

Lin Feng remembered this person.

The source of the malicious prying he sensed during the awards ceremony was this person.

The man in the dark gold robe was forming a hand seal with one hand, and the rhythm of the fleet's attacks changed with the opening and closing of his hand.

Meanwhile, his other hand was suspended at his side, with a dark red vessel floating in his palm.

The vessel is shaped like an open palm, and its inner wall is engraved with dense patterns of laws.

Lin Feng didn't recognize the thing, but the results of the star ring scan popped up.

[Soul Harvester (Immortal-grade artifact): Can forcibly strip away the essence of a living being, increasing the efficiency of stripping away "life-related" essence by 300%.]

Lin Feng didn't utter a single unnecessary word.

Spatial warp.

His figure disappeared from the warp portal exit seven light-years away, and reappeared the next instant three hundred meters away from the flagship.

The man in the dark gold robe sensed something was amiss.

He turned his head sharply, and a figure appeared in his pupils.

The speed was so fast that his mental perception was half a beat slower than his visual perception.

"you!"

The Heavenly Halberd of Myriad Calamities slashes horizontally.

With the physical strength of an Immortal Tier 1 body, plus the enhancement of the two halberd patterns on the Myriad Tribulations Halberd, the speed of this strike broke through the barrier of light speed.

The man in the dark gold robe was no ordinary person after all.

When the halberd blade was three inches from his neck, a dark golden shield erupted from his entire body.

The halberd blade slashed at the shield.

"Bang!"

The shield shattered.

The halberd continued to push forward, and the man in the dark gold robe flew sideways, crashing through the flagship's bridge armor plate.

Lin Feng didn't chase after him, but instead turned on the communication channel.

"Light rain."

"elder brother?!"

Lin Xiaoyu's voice came through the communicator, trembling with the relief of surviving a close call.

"Brother, what's wrong with you...?"

"Are you hurt?"

"No, no, the captain had everyone take refuge in the core compartment, but the captain is injured, and there are three crew members left."

"I understand, don't come out."

Lin Feng turned off the communication.

A man in a dark gold robe crawled out from the shattered armor plates of the flagship's wreckage.

Half of his body was covered in blood, and his left arm was hanging at an abnormal angle, clearly broken.

But there was no pain on his face, only shock.

"Immortal! You've broken through to immortality?"

His voice was strained.

Lin Feng hovered thirty meters above him, the tip of the Myriad Calamities Halberd pointing downwards, a drop of purplish-gold blood sliding off the blade.

That was Lin Feng's own blood.

My hand was torn apart when I forcibly reversed the warp portal, and it hasn't fully healed yet.

The man in the dark gold robe saw the drop of blood.

They also saw three faint phantom images of laws flowing around Lin Feng.

His expression changed repeatedly.

"Lin Feng, listen to me."

"I am the Deputy Envoy of the Imperial Dark Guard. Your sister's essence has strategic value to the Empire, and I am ordered to..."

"Whose orders are you taking?"

"This is the Secret Service's top secret..."

Lin Feng didn't wait for him to finish speaking.

Displacement.

When he appeared before the man in the dark gold robe, the tip of his halberd was already pressed against the man's Adam's apple.

The man in the dark gold robe was so close that he could clearly see the texture of every immortal pattern on the halberd blade.

"I'll ask again."

Lin Feng's voice was very flat, so flat that it had no inflection whatsoever.

"Who sent you?"

The man in the dark gold robe's Adam's apple bobbed up and down.

The halberd tip sliced ​​through the skin on his neck, and a trickle of blood slid down the blade.

"The second elder of the Augustus family, and people from the Secret Guard. They said they'd use your sister as leverage while you're tied up at the border..."

"name."

"The person from the Dark Guard is called Zhong Ci, one of the seven seats in the Dark Guard. The Second Elder is called Grian, Augustus's own uncle."

Lin Feng remembered those two names.

Then he removed the halberd tip from the neck of the man in the dark gold robe.

The man in the dark gold robe breathed a sigh of relief.

The halberd tip changed direction and pierced into his dantian.

"what!"

The man in the dark gold robe let out a scream.

The Devouring Law of the Myriad Calamities Halberd poured in from the tip of the halberd, draining all the source energy from his body within three breaths.

His cultivation at the peak of the ninth level of the Overlord realm was reduced to zero at this moment.

Lin Feng drew his halberd.

The man in the dark gold robe slumped on the shattered bridge, his dark gold robe fading to a grayish color.

He opened his mouth, as if trying to say something, but no sound came out.

"You messed with the wrong person; you deserve to die."

Lin Feng glanced at him, then turned and walked towards the warp drive.

When the hatch of the Leap Ship's core compartment opened, Lin Xiaoyu rushed over.

The little girl clung tightly to his waist, her whole body trembling.

She had been listening to continuous explosions outside from inside the core module. After communications were cut off, she couldn't receive any information and had no idea what was happening outside.

"It's alright now."

Lin Feng reached out and patted the back of her head.

There were still a dozen or so people in the core module, all old friends from Earth.

The captain lay in a corner, his chest wrapped with a bandage to stop the bleeding, his consciousness blurred, and the three crew members next to him were also in bad condition.

Lin Xiaoyu looked up, her eyes red-rimmed.

"Brother, the captain manually shut off the engine isolation valve to protect the core compartment and was burned by the leaking plasma. I stabilized him with healing essence, but my essence isn't enough..."

"It's okay, I'll do it."

Lin Feng squatted down and placed his right hand on the captain's chest.

The essence of the first level of immortality seeped from his palm.

He transferred his own life force through his own source, forcibly activating the other party's self-healing ability.

The captain's breathing stabilized within three breaths.

After the treatment was completed, Lin Feng accessed the deputy commander's encrypted communication channel.

The connection was established very quickly.

The deputy commander's holographic image popped up, his expression still carrying the calmness he had when the previous call ended.

But when he saw the core compartment of the leap ship behind Lin Feng and the wounded soldiers all over the ground, he realized something was wrong.

"What happened?"

"Someone is attacking my sister's flagship, seven unnumbered destroyers, remnants of the Augustus family. The leader claims to be the deputy envoy of the Dark Guard."

His face fell.

"The Dark Guard?"

"Bang!"

With a loud bang, the screen shook violently as the deputy commander slammed his hand on the table in front of him, shattering it.

"These damned beasts!"

He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the raging anger pounding in his chest.

"Raymond Lam, take good care of yourself and your sister."

"I assure you with the honor of the Empire that within an hour, I will have Zhong Ci and Gryphon's heads, packed in boxes, personally delivered to you!"
