Hearing the sound of something slicing through the air, Chris felt the two of them fall. She was already on high alert, but this sudden strike nearly sent her tumbling into a deep pit. Her body trembled as she struggled to regain her balance, but in that instant, a fierce flame erupted. Chris felt as if Death itself had embraced her, and then warmth spread across her chest. Looking down, she saw a flaming spearhead protruding between her ample breasts.
There was no blood flowing, no pain at all; instead, something that should not have been there appeared right in the center of her most prized possession. At that moment, Chris felt the last shred of sensation fade away, leaving only one thought: how could this happen?
With a thud, Chris fell straight into the pit left by the lightning strike, a transparent circular hole appearing between her breasts. Her stunningly beautiful face was filled with disbelief. However, it didn't take long for anyone to feel pity for her anymore; as her body lay at the bottom of the pit, it came into contact with the toxic gas left by the Virgo Palace Master. In an instant, her outer garments were dissolved by the deadly poison. There was no chance for modesty as what had once been a figure that captivated countless souls turned into a gruesome mass of flesh.
Who would have thought that just moments ago, Chris had been fiercely battling Athena without losing ground, only to die so suddenly? In truth, it was just like that; who among the Gene Warriors would not be instantly killed? First, Chris had not anticipated an enemy appearing behind her. Second, the slap to her rear end made it impossible for her to steady herself. After all, she knew that remnants of the palace master's scales were left in the pit and that they contained deadly toxins; in that moment, all she wanted was to avoid falling into it.
Moreover, Sophia, the owner of the flaming spear, possessed strength comparable to Xiao Yefeng's—both were at the True Spirit Late Stage and on the verge of breaking through. Chris's strength was roughly at a high level of True Spirit. With Sophia having all the advantages of a surprise attack, it was only natural that she could pierce through and kill Chris with one thrust.
However, Sophia and the man wielding the Beast Bone Bow did not care whether they had killed a beautiful woman or not. They knew these people had slaughtered countless members of their kin; their blood feud could not be explained merely by vengeance. Would you be surprised to kill one beautiful enemy among many when faced with such deep-seated hatred?
Sophia and the man with the Beast Bone Bow advanced relentlessly. With few arrows left in his quiver, he drew out a short knife he carried with him. The two acted ruthlessly; flames and golden light clung to their weapons. Here, Qi was isolated, yet elemental forces remained within their respective items without affecting them at all. Moreover, since the Tiger Shark Team was imprisoned in a cell requiring multiple guards...
At this point, there were no Gene Warriors left in the laboratory capable of opposing Sophia or even this man. Thus, they quickly made their way to the lowest level. Faced with the door that trapped Xiao Yefeng, they found themselves at an impasse. There were only two ways to open it: either using the Magnetic Card that Xiao Yefeng had used upon entering or relying on the lock-picking device carried by Virgo Palace Master.
Clearly, the second option was also unfeasible. At this moment, Sophia found herself at a loss as she thrust her metallic spear imbued with flames against the metal door, creating large dents but unable to break through in such a short time.
Meanwhile, reinforcements from the laboratory were drawing closer. Sweat appeared on Sophia's delicate face as she and her companion were trapped by the door. What about Virgo Palace Master and Wind and Thunder Envoys on the other side?
After several attacks, Virgo Palace Master realized that these two had shifted from trying to kill him to merely entangling him. With his intelligence, he quickly discerned there was something amiss when he pressed his communicator and found Chris's device unresponsive. At that moment, he understood he had fallen into a trap.
"Despicable! How could you do this?" Virgo Palace Master said darkly after glancing at his wound.
At that moment, the Wind and Thunder Envoys exchanged glances and said, "You have no right to say that!"
Hearing this, the Virgo Palace Master gritted his teeth and glanced at the positioning watch on his wrist. He realized that the Capricorn Palace Master was still far away. In a fit of anger, he smashed the expensive watch with a slap and exclaimed, "That old bastard is actually taking personal revenge! Let's see how you explain this to me!"
On one side, the Virgo Palace Master was seething with rage, while ten miles away, in a shaded area, a middle-aged man was riding a bicycle and munching on a roasted chicken leg. He was chatting with an unknown bird perched on a branch nearby.
"Hmph! Old Pervert asks for help? I'm just buying time for you. You have the nerve to seek my assistance! If it weren't for you letting Zero run wild last time, my guard wouldn't have been gravely injured and died! Aren't you powerful? I'm just not going to help you!" As he spoke, he reached out and grasped two invisible streams of air that caught the bird on the branch, placing it on the handlebars of his bicycle. The strange bird remained motionless, as if it were a puppet.
The Virgo Palace Master had no idea what this man was saying; if he did, he would surely be furious. However, he knew he could not delay any longer. The Wind and Thunder Envoys intended to stall him without letting him leave. If this continued, he would be trapped here. Moreover, that damned Capricorn Palace Master was deliberately dragging out the time. The two bases were only about thirty kilometers apart, yet they had not arrived yet—this was clearly personal revenge.
It was unfortunate that the two were not in the same camp. At this moment, the Virgo Palace Master decided not to dwell on it any longer. He steeled himself; even if it meant shedding some skin, he had to shake off these two old bastards—Xiao Yefeng and Consort Mi could not be abandoned!
He swung his long sword in front of him, carving out more than a dozen purple sword marks. This was a combination of poison gas and his own water-based abilities. These sword marks transformed into a semi-circular shield that braced against the raging wind and thunder. The semi-circular poison shield charged forward like a rampaging rhinoceros towards Zoru and Biaoqing.
"Old bastard wants to run? Not so easily! Wind Guardian!" Biaoqing focused intently and raised his hand. The staff wrapped in Fur suddenly soared into the air as the Fur fell away, revealing its true form—a vibrant green branch that shone like jade. However, from the rings around the staff, it was clear that it was a branch from an unknown tree.
At the top of the staff was a thumb-sized blue gemstone that flickered with light. Visible trails of wind spiraled around the gemstone. Just then, as Biaoqing spoke, the wind trails detached from the gemstone and coiled around Thunder Envoy Zoru, forming an invisible barrier that firmly resisted the impact of the Toxic Rhino Shield.
In contrast, Virgo Palace Master did not expect his long-prepared Toxic Rhino Shield to be blocked. After all, during their previous encounters, they had used these techniques dozens of times; each time his Toxic Rhino had broken through Biaoqing's Wind Guardian shield. However, this time he had lost Spirit-Eating Insect and found himself at a disadvantage for the first time.
At that moment, Zoru swung his staff with a crack of thunder. With a loud bang, half of the Thundercloud dissipated in the air before another blue bolt of lightning struck down. After executing this move, Zoru's face turned pale; Elementalists were still not gods. In this era where spiritual energy was waning, although they possessed recovery abilities far surpassing those of cultivators, they were ultimately still mortals.
Feeling a tingling sensation above his head, Virgo Palace Master realized something was wrong. Knowing he could not resist this bolt of lightning at this moment, he had no choice but to give up on an easily obtainable opportunity. He took half a step back and pushed off with his foot, launching himself backward in an attempt to evade the lightning strike.
However, things took a turn. The lightning that fell did not strike the ground but instead made a sharp turn to chase after the retreating Virgo Palace Master.
"Not good!" Though the warning was uttered too late, the lightning caught up instantly, striking the Virgo Palace Master and sending him crashing to the ground. Meanwhile, Thunder Envoy Zoru, pale-faced and gripping his staff, collapsed to his knees, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, a testament to the backlash he suffered from controlling the lightning's trajectory.
Seeing Thunder Envoy fall, Wind Envoy Biaoqing rushed forward to support Zoru. At that moment, Zoru gritted his teeth and attempted to gather Thunder Element energy once more. However, this time only a flicker of lightning appeared before vanishing into thin air. The Thundercloud above had long dissipated. With a deep sigh, Zoru felt a pang of regret; he was so close to delivering the final blow that could have killed the formidable Virgo Palace Master.
Just then, two rockets soared into the sky—one was a standard signal flare fired from a modern launcher, while the other was a golden-red glow. The golden arrow pierced through the air, igniting as it flew, leaving behind a trail of red flames.
The sight of these two signals stirred mixed emotions in Wind and Thunder Envoys. Less than twenty meters ahead lay their arch-nemesis, Virgo Palace Master—the one responsible for the deaths of many of their kin. The signal flare in the air depicted a creature with a sheep's body and fish's tail, clearly indicating that Capricorn Palace Master had arrived. With his speed, he could reach this spot in under a minute; they could already see a figure rushing towards them.
Now they faced two choices: either advance and waste precious seconds trying to kill Virgo Palace Master, which would likely lead to their capture by the arriving Capricorn Palace Master after an exhausting battle; or utilize Wind Envoy's remaining Elemental Power to make a swift escape.
Time was not on their side. Though Thunder Envoy felt immense regret in his heart, he resolutely turned away. He understood his old friend's temperament—having known each other for over seventy years—if he insisted on staying behind, Zoru would never abandon him. That would only put his dear friend in danger.
Wind Envoy understood Thunder Envoy's thoughts as well. Gritting his teeth, he pointed his emerald staff upward. The gem embedded in it had dimmed but suddenly blazed with light after Biaoqing infused it with a hint of red energy. A blade of wind sliced through the dawn and shot towards the fallen Virgo Palace Master. Then, with the wind element swirling around them, both envoys departed like a gentle breeze, moving at speeds comparable to teleportation—only fleeting shadows remained visible to the naked eye.
