「In the Greening Forest.」
OW!!
After the white woman severed the ntal connection, the cat in Yi Beidou’s arms returned to normal. It let out a terrified shriek under the assault of the horrifying Evil Qi, its fur instantly standing on end.
Under this level of stress, a feline could easily die from shock.
BUZZ!!
The Demon Sound vibrated from Yi Beidou’s chest, stabilizing the little cat’s Life Magnetic Field and calming its emotions.
It was completely innocent; Yi Beidou wouldn’t let it suffer for no reason.
The Demon Fla around Yi Beidou receded. As the Demon Sound continued to vibrate, the little cat was not only no longer frightened but even felt a sense of comfort throughout its body.
After tending to its body, Yi Beidou placed the cat on the ground.
The little cat rubbed back and forth against his pant leg, seemingly reluctant to leave.
However, Yi Beidou had to go and see for himself just what kind of powerful figures were hiding in the shadows.
WHOOSH!!
He tapped his foot, and his figure vanished on the spot as if teleporting.
「In the park.」
The white woman watched the ominous thread spreading toward them from the sky, a glint of eerie green light suddenly flashing in her eyes.
Green light blood in the Void, coalescing into vine-like shapes that wrapped around the red thread, as if trying to snap it.
Unfortunately, although the thread looked thin and weak, it seed to exist outside the mortal plane. The green vines of light ford in the Void couldn’t touch its true essence at all.
On the other side, the tall Asian man also made his move.
He ford a Seal Technique and swiped at the blood-red thread. The mont he acted, a brilliant light erupted from his palm. The light expanded, taking the form of armor and creating a massive hand centered on his own. Like the hand of a descending deity, it clenched violently around the thread.
BOOM!!
He had actually produced the sound of an explosion in the Void. The magnetic field in the surrounding area fell into chaos, causing space itself to look distorted as brilliant light scattered everywhere.
However, after the magnetic fluctuations subsided, the blood-red thread was still there, stubbornly connected to the white woman.
"No matter how much we run, we can’t escape our fated calamity. That man is the calamity. Once he locks onto you, people with our level of skill can’t break free. No wonder he could pinpoint the enemy’s command center from within an entire army."
"Soone can actually embody a calamity? As they say, ’when you gaze into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you.’ How many calamities will a person who embodies calamity itself have to face in their lifeti?"
"It seems our safest plan, the covert approach, has failed," the tall Asian man said in a low voice.
"What do we do now? Try to leave? It will take him so ti to catch up to us," the white woman asked.
"Since the covert approach didn’t work, we’ll just confront him directly," the tall Asian man said decisively. "At the very least, this brief clash has proven sothing: a person who embodies calamity can’t possibly be on the sa side as those old codgers hiding in the shadows. That’s enough for now."
Those Ancient Ones, who have lived for who knows how many ages, avoid calamities like the plague. How could one of them beco a calamity incarnate?
They’d probably be extrely unwilling to even be associated with such a person.
At this mont, he began to understand sothing. The figure behind the scenes in Japan was a Domain Lord of his clan, with deep ties to Japan’s Great Trend. This ant he had a direct conflict of interest with Yi Beidou. Yet, he had still allowed Yi Beidou to act so wantonly without intervening.
"This is very dangerous. I’m afraid that even if we combine our strength, we’ll be no match for this person," the white woman said.
"If he attacks without a word, then we’ll just fight to the death. In any case, even if we die, our ’Fruit Positions’ will simply return, leaving them for our other colleagues to use," the tall Asian man said, his expression calm, as if he had already put aside all thoughts of life and death.
As the two were talking, their expressions suddenly changed.
FWOOM!!
A flash of blue-white fla suddenly erupted, as if burning a gaping hole in the Void. The Concealing Array the tall Asian man had set up was instantly shattered. A tall figure strode toward them. His eyes were deep and sharp, just like the Demon Fla on his body, possessing an extrely aggressive and piercing quality.
As his gaze swept over them, the Asian man and the white woman inexplicably felt as if they were stark naked, imnse pressure building in their hearts.
They had only ever felt such a terrifying sense of oppression from the leader of their organization.
Seeing is believing, indeed.
"So there are two of you? Your powers... seem quite interesting."
Yi Beidou stared at the two of them, discerning many unusual things.
He looked at the tall Asian man and seed to see a majestic Golden Armored Divine General residing within his body, as if it had stepped straight out of a mural. It was clearly an extrely independent magnetic field.
A Hidden God within the body.
From Yi Beidou’s current perspective, this wasn’t actually anything surprising. He had seen far too many Miraculous Techniques and Divine Powers. Be it the Soldier Technique or the Summoning Technique, they all had similar manifestations.
But the essence of these two was different.
Whether it was the Soldier Technique or the Summoning Technique, the "Spirit" within the body was separate from one’s own Life Magnetic Field. If you compared a person’s physical shell to a house, then the individual’s Life Magnetic Field and the independent "Spirit’s" magnetic field would be like two people—or a person and a dog—living in the sa house, with a clear distinction between primary and secondary.
