Chapter 1108: Chapter 37: Black Grinding_2
The exploration team’s task is to “scan the wasteland” to ensure the upcoming “annihilation” doesn’t miss those in hiding.
The team’s Spiritual Transcendent is quite young.
He is surrounded by four combat personnel, forming a four-corner formation, spread out but not dense, with a distance of about ten ters between each person… For the Transcendent, this distance isn’t too far. If an ergency arises, everyone has ti to react and can support each other.
The forehead of the Spiritual Transcendent emits a faint silver light.
Countless snow winds flow towards the center of his brows with the movent of the Extraordinary Essence.
[Source Eyes], this is the most popular and versatile “Spiritual Ability” in team combat!
The young man opened his silver eyes and, under the team’s protection, slowly climbed a protruding snow slope, scanning the entire snowfield… his spiritual power spread out, silently sweeping over the land.
Then he closed his silver eyes and walked down the snow slope.
The whole icy world seed to beco silent—
“Directly north, seven miles, under the rocks at the foot of Zha Mu Mountain, soone is hiding.”
His voice resonated within the spiritual channel.
The exploration team locating a target wouldn’t act imdiately… this snowfield is truly vast, very quiet, and usually has no creatures passing by. The Law Enforcer’s spirit sweeps over, and the hiding criminal naturally senses it.
The wisest handling thod is to withdraw the spirit after completing a comprehensive scan of the whole area.
Allow the target to relax, thinking the storm has passed.
anwhile, gather manpower…
“Acknowledged.”
“Acknowledged.”
A reply ca imdiately from within the five-person team, with one combat person with a black long knife asking, “Can you detect the approximate strength of their spiritual power?”
“It’s roughly the Deep Water area seventh layer level.”
The silver eyes holder thought for a mont and seriously said, “Belongs to the weakest category among [Snow Cage] escapees.”
If too strong, his spiritual scan would feel imnse pressure.
In this situation, it’s necessary to notify higher-ups… They aren’t equipped with overly powerful combatants, numbers are few, so the primary task is detection with safety as a priority.
Today marks the first day of the eradication task, the southern edge of the Tundra Region near the base’s “high-pressure line,” unlikely to encounter dangerous individuals.
“Do we need to take action?”
A mber of the five-person group cautiously asked, “Once reporting, is the task already complete?”
“According to the manual, if certain, we may proceed without waiting… move directly.”
The knife-holder, very combative, already itching for action.
Their five-person team, though rely reconnaissance, each possesses not weak strength, the weakest being eighth layer, and one mber is ninth layer. A team of five against one seventh layer target—what is there to fear?
In the midst of conversation.
A “thud” sound ca from the snowfield!
Seven miles away, at Zha Mu Mountain’s foot not far, a layer of snow haze exploded, countless snowflakes scattered and were thrown up; the hiding person detected by [Source Eyes] suddenly erged at this mont and sought to escape to the distance!
“He guessed we were about to act! He’s not hiding anymore!”
The five-person team instantly beca tense.
“What should we do, act now?”
“Swish—”
Before the five can proceed to the next discussion step, the knife-holder charged out. He is the highest strength “Ninth Layer” in the team, only a hair’s breadth from breakthrough. His fervent fighting spirit stems from intending to achieve breakthrough amid this eradication task.
Too bad higher-ups assigned him to the exploration team!
If none of the unexpected occur, by task completion, he would encounter no combat!
A seven-mile distance, not far for Transcendents… the strength gap between seventh and ninth layer is too vast; the criminal’s tragic fate had been sealed the mont they chose to flee.
Under the Domain Embryo’s enhancent, within re dozens of breaths, the knife-holder transcendent caught up to the fleeing criminal.
Upon catching up, without hesitation, he drew the long knife and slashed down.
“Slish…”
A single slash!
The fleeing Transcendent criminal was directly chopped into two halves, blood splattered, a swath of red abruptly staining the snowy land… This scene was rather shocking.
After the kill, the dust settled.
The knife-holder Transcendent raised his black knife high to showcase his accomplishnt to his companions.
“You all are too timid,”.
His voice echoed with laughter in the spiritual link, “Five against a single seventh layer, what’s there to worry about?”
Within the five-person group, the only female Transcendent spoke at this point.
She lowered her voice and angrily said, “Zheng Qiu, don’t act recklessly… our task isn’t to kill the criminal.”
“Is that so, but we are part of the ‘eradication task’.”
Zheng Qiu laughed and slung the long knife over his shoulder, saying, “Is this guy really that fearso? Killing him took just one second. We might not handle [Snow Cage]’s high-level criminals, but seventh layer… don’t worry, they’re genuinely weak. Following orders for slowly ‘scanning’, reporting, must we toil a whole half-year to search point by point against so escaped criminals?”
“…”
These words left the rest of the group at a loss for responses.
“Acting like this, Mr. Gu Shen wouldn’t be happy to know.”
The Spiritual Transcendent seriously spoke, “He oversees our entire exploration teams… according to the manual, if we have full ‘capture’ assurance, refrain from killing.”
These criminals are unforgivable on their own.
Many of them should have been killed long ago… however, their Spirit Sea is overly powerful, truly an unignorable wealth, thus the East Continent Council imprisoned them in “Sky Sheath Core Area”.
They’ll inject a large amount of valuable spiritual power into the East Continent’s [Deep Sea].
In such circumstance.
Alive is no different from dead.
Thus, if these escapees can be captured back, simply toss them back into the cage.
Indeed.
If facing crisis, don’t hesitate… prioritize elimination!
“Mr. Gu Shen… Mr. Gu Shen?”
Zheng Qiu slung his black knife and pronounced ‘Mr.’ heavily in the spiritual link.
“Apologies, I an no disrespect.”
Zheng Qiu, laughing, asked, “I know Gu Shen has great respect in Changye, but our Jiuning District Transcendents all say his age is only twenty… can such a young person qualify as our leader?”
The woman spoke coldly, “Only twenty, yet far surpasses you.”
Zheng Qiu raised his brows.
He slung his knife and shook his head, “Yes, this S-grade cultivation speed is quick. But now, his strength is rely third rank… with both being third rank, are you certain he surpasses ?”
Zheng Qiu finished and waited for a reply.
The spiritual link seed to have malfunctioned… why are teammates silent?
He frowned and “looked” toward the distance.
Strong Attack Type Transcendents generally don’t possess strong spirit.
Fairly, his strength concentrates within the body, unleashing upon close combat; the stronger the flesh, naturally the weaker the spirit.
Across seven miles, Zheng Qiu’s spirit extended to its limit only to faintly glimpse four blurred figures atop the snow slope.
The four looked like they were waving to him.
What are they saying?
Zheng Qiu paused slightly.
Unease welled within him, and upon lifting his head, he saw nurous fragnted yet imnse Black Shadows slowly rising amidst the snow at the mountain foot, spreading, already completed “charge,” magnificent as a mountain.
“Crash——”
A fierce blizzard howled, the gigantic black mountain, like a collapsed building, rumbled down within the snow tide, right atop Zheng Qiu’s head.
“Crack.”
This crisp sound was drowned among the flying snow’s crushing.
Just one mont.
A neat and clean crush.
Deep Sea Ninth Layer Transcendent, Zheng Qiu, was ground into pulp.
