In the end of the world, I become an immortal alone

Spirit stones!

Although the object encased in metal within that pendant was small,

Wang Jixuan was certain he couldn't be mistaken!

The faint fluctuations of spiritual energy within were unmistakable!

It was a spirit stone, or something highly similar!

Only the spiritual energy inside had been drained, and when it was close to Zheng Shiduo's body, the fluctuations were obscured by the 'mottled aura' emanating from Zheng Shiduo himself.

Wang Jixuan restrained himself;

He desperately suppressed the urge to ask what it was.

His intuition told him that this might be a Blade Beast's crystal core!

Later, he only needed to casually ask Zheng Shiduo, or Ling Tong, who had rich frontline experience.

As long as he could get three of these things with undepleted spiritual energy, he could set up the simplest 'Three Talents Spirit Gathering Array' to convert the spiritual energy inside into spiritual Qi, greatly increasing his cultivation speed in a short time!

If he could get enough of these things, the problem of sparse spiritual Qi in the air would no longer be a concern!

Now he was rebuilding his foundation, and he had no lack of insights.

However, the higher a cultivator's realm, the greater their demand for spiritual Qi, and Wang Jixuan had no idea how many spirit stones he would need…

“Mu Liang, Mu Liang?”

Zhou Zhengde waved his large hand in front of Wang Jixuan.

“Mm, what's wrong?”

“We should go,” Zhou Zhengde said. “Ling Tong left the route. We're going to the nearest floor to hide, wait half an hour, and then find Elevator 7 to go to the forty-fifth floor.”

Three elite military officers looked at the screens on their arms and said quickly:

“The situation is not good. Spirit users of unknown identities are converging towards this fire escape. We may encounter them.”

“We are not confident in directly confronting spirit users.”

“We can surrender if necessary. We can help Captain Ling Tong and the others divert their attention. Moreover, with Captain Zhou here, the spirit users wouldn't dare to kill us. Even if Kong Nu is crazy, he wouldn't dare to directly provoke the Commander-in-Chief.”

“Follow me, I know the way.”

Wang Jixuan picked up the metal box that Zheng Shiduo had been carrying.

Zhou Zhengde immediately said: “Listen to Mu Liang, he's the guide.”

The three officers who had just arrived at Fortress 76 nodded simultaneously, their spirits highly tense, each holding their guns.

Two minutes later.

On the thirty-second floor of the fortress, an abandoned fire door was kicked open, and several figures quickly entered. Two people moved forward quickly in a crisscross pattern, kneeling to aim their guns, standing to stick to the wall, observing everywhere.

Wang Jixuan carried the large metal box on his back, grabbed Zhou Zhengde's arm with his left hand, and carried an automatic rifle in his right hand, moving swiftly.

His spiritual sense was now at its maximum.

Within a radius of forty meters around him, no disturbance could escape his perception.

“There is no danger nearby.”

Wang Jixuan reminded, pulling Zhou Zhengde and taking the lead.

The three officers exchanged glances, shrugged, and expressed their dissatisfaction with this unprofessional young man with helpless expressions, and quickly followed.

The five entered the capillary passages.

Each floor of the fortress had slightly different distributions of residential areas due to different factory types, and different divisions of industrial, agricultural, and residential land.

But the structure of each floor was roughly the same, mostly consisting of [Capillary Passages – Crossroads – Confluence Hall – Main Passage – Central Circular Garden].

The locations of the elevators on each floor were the same.

Wang Jixuan led them through the maze-like capillary passages, avoiding most of the cameras and the few residents active in various places.

Now it was a normal workday during work hours;

Everywhere was like a school dormitory during class time, quiet, empty, and generally clean.

“Mu Liang, I can walk myself, you don't need to pull me if it's okay.”

Zhou Zhengde, who was being pulled forward, said quickly.

Wang Jixuan nodded in agreement. The moment he let go of Zhou Zhengde, his left hand trembled slightly, and several nut caps flew out from the light blue uniform cuff.

Moving forward, he rushed out of the intersection, turned around, and the nut caps shot out from his palm.

Several hooligans who were skipping work to smoke grunted and slumped, bruises appearing on their necks, falling into a brief coma.

Zhou Zhengde took out a communicator and kept searching: “Should I contact the captain of the thirty-second floor security team? Strange, they should have noticed us already.”

“They might be deliberately watching the show,” Wang Jixuan said. “We can't be sure how much influence the Biology Minister Kong Nu has over these people. The Thirteenth Institute is a behemoth to ordinary people.”

“Alright.”

Zhou Zhengde muttered in a low voice:

“Is it because my threat to Kong Nu made him decide to go rogue with spiritual energy? A desperate gamble?”

The female officer said: “I don't quite understand either. Kong Nu is directly confronting the war zone headquarters and Commander-in-Chief D5. What does he rely on?”

“His reliance is,” Ling Tong's voice came from the earpiece, “A T511 stealth transport plane left the Arctic region where the Spirit Energy Capital is located three minutes ago and is expected to arrive in the Central Ancient Basin in three hours.”

Zhou Zhengde lightly raised his eyebrows: “That is to say, the Spirit Energy Capital chose to protect Kong Nu?”

Wang Jixuan asked: “Spirit Energy Capital?”

“The headquarters of spirit users.”

“Three spirit users have entered your floor,” Ling Tong said. “I will share their locations with you in real-time. Pay attention to concealment. You can surrender to them at the appropriate time. Leave the rest to me.”

Tzz.

Ling Tong ended the long-distance call, and the equipment tied to an officer's arm flashed brightly.

“Behind us! There's a guy moving so fast! He's coming from the fire escape!”

“Damn it! Why do spirit users listen to Kong Nu!”

“It seems that a person in charge like Kong Nu can directly control the life and death of resident spirit users... Who will command?”

Zhou Zhengde took a step forward.

“I will,” Wang Jixuan said indifferently, his eyes scanning everywhere, “Ambush nearby, first eliminate the target behind us. Once the battle starts, the others will quickly gather here. We can use the elevator to quickly cross floors and maneuver.”

The three officers hesitated slightly.

Daoist Wang tossed up a nut, then suddenly pushed it forward with his palm.

Pa!

The nut embedded itself in the metal wall.

The three officers nodded at the same time.

“Understood!”

… …

‘Such speed, the aura isn't too strong.’

In the somewhat dim capillary passage, Wang Jixuan squatted behind a bench at the end of the passage, looking as if he was closing his eyes to rest.

Zhou Zhengde sat on the bench, with the tombstone-shaped alloy box standing in front of him. It was said that this thing could withstand a rocket strike; as a matter of course, Zhou Zhengde, facing the capillary passage, had been noticed by the pursuer coming from behind.

The three officers each performed their duties, one guarding their subsequent retreat route, and two hiding behind the bunkers in the circular hall, their firepower intersecting at the exit of the capillary passage.

The pursuer's figure appeared in Zhou Zhengde's sight.

The newest novels are first published at 6 9 Book Bar!

In the dim light of the passage, this pursuer could be seen as a guy nearly two meters tall, with a somewhat thin figure, holding a handgun in his left hand.

‘A D-level spirit user.’

Wang Jixuan made an accurate judgment.

A pair of vertical pupils like those of a python flickered in the shadows, quietly watching Zhou Zhengde.

“Target found, it's Zhou Zhengde, you don't need to come over.”

The spirit user said to the button microphone on his collar, then slowly approached.

He said calmly:

“Captain Zhou, Minister Kong wants to have a heart-to-heart talk with you again.”

“He instructed us not to kill you directly. Tell your subordinates on your left and right not to resist fearlessly. I am not one of those trash spirit users who only know how to enjoy themselves in the fortress.”

“Wow,” Zhou Zhengde smiled, “He clearly also said he wanted to kill me.”

“You deliberately showed yourself to cover for another group of people, right?”

The D-level spirit user sneered, and was now less than twenty meters away from Zhou Zhengde.

He said slowly:

“Your every move is under our observation. We have prepared two plans, one in the Upper City and one in the Lower City.

“No matter how strong the person you invited is, it is impossible to resist the ambush and siege of three C-level spirit users and nine D-level spirit users.

“That half-mechanical body shouldn't be here in theory. Obviously, Minister Kong has concealed some things from us, but that's not something I should consider… Are we going to fight? Then I might kill everyone else besides you.”

The spirit user revealed a grim smile, and his vertical pupils suddenly flickered.

He rushed forward, his figure flying forward like an arrow, and his body was instantly covered by a layer of light blue film!

Military short-term shield!

The two hiding officers immediately opened fire, and automatic rifles continuously fired. The shield around the spirit user could only last for five seconds, but those five seconds were enough for him to grab Zhou Zhengde!

Zhou Zhengde hugged his head and curled up behind the alloy box.

Wang Jixuan's figure suddenly jumped up, and his left fist slammed forward!

The Vajra Talisman and Divine Power Talisman flashed on his left arm at the same time, and he held two bone-penetrating nails between his fingers!

The spirit user, who hadn't noticed Wang Jixuan's aura at all, showed a shocked expression at this moment. Having already jumped over, he had no way to change his momentum. In a flash of lightning, he used all his abilities based on his rich combat experience.

The spirit user's right hand, already covered with scales, swelled up instantly, and grabbed towards Wang Jixuan's fist.

Brute force head-on was not advisable.

Wang Jixuan's fist suddenly became 'soft'. At the moment of contact with the opponent's right hand, Wang Jixuan's left hand led to the left, and his knuckles tapped lightly. The spirit user's right hand was instantly deflected, his forward body deviated, and his widened eyes showed some astonishment.

In Daoist Wang's cultivation world, these kinds of hand-to-hand combat skills were only occasionally practiced by low-level cultivators.

Now, because his spiritual energy is limited, Daoist Wang has been unable to enter the Gathering God Realm. Recently, with nothing to do, he has also learned some of these little tricks.

Wang Jixuan opened his left hand, tossing two Bone-Penetrating Nails casually. His seemingly weak fingers hooked the esper's elbow, and his body completed a flip in the process.

Qi moves through Yin and Yang, creating Tai Chi.

The esper, who had charged forward, seemed to borrow strength from the air, accelerating forward. His body flipped over the top of the long chair, turning upside down, his back crashing into the wall of the round hall a few meters away.

A Tai Chi diagram formed from condensed Qi floated around Wang Jixuan.

He lightly tapped his toes, his figure chasing after the esper's launched form.

The esper勉强 raised the pistol in his left hand, but before he could fire, he crashed heavily into the wall of the round hall, creating a muffled thud.

Fighting is like this;

One must adapt to the circumstances, move with the times, fully utilize one's own aura, find the opponent's weaknesses, and fully exploit the power of one's magical artifacts.

Click.

The muzzle of a 5.8mm small-caliber sniper rifle was pressed against the esper's forehead.

"This complies with the Fortress Cleanup Protocol."

Wang Jixuan reported seriously, and his right hand pulled the trigger.

Bang!

Wang Jixuan calmly picked up the button communicator from the corpse's collar, and immediately heard voices from within.

"He's over by Crocodile!"

"Something happened to Crocodile! Pulse signal lost! We told him not to go alone! That E-level esper next to Zhou Zhengde is very dangerous!"

"Quick! Surround them! Don't kill Zhou Zhengde, kill everyone else!"

E-level esper?

Who?

Wang Jixuan's forehead was streaked with black lines. He turned and rushed back to Zhou Zhengde's side, picked up Ling Tong's alloy box, and slightly opened his left hand. The two Bone-Penetrating Nails were drawn back into his palm.

He tossed the button communicator to the female officer who ran up next to him, and charged into the escape route with the sniper rifle in his arms.

"We need to run faster."

Wang Jixuan carefully considered, then turned and threw out several Swift Steps Talismans.
