Chapter 289 The Operation

Su Xi looked at Lin Qing before her, a string of question marks appearing on her forehead.

She never imagined that someone would dare to fight Tian Gang Zhenren. Even more unexpected was that someone here could actually fight Tian Gang Zhenren to a standstill.

And through Lin Qing before her, Su Xi began to recall the scene she saw in the demon realm. The insect mother had created so many human-shaped molds, which she had accidentally destroyed.

She hadn't understood why at the time, but now, seeing Lin Qing also copied, she realized that it wasn't just the demons involved; all races were being used.

While Su Xi was deep in thought, she suddenly saw a series of air fluctuations appear in the sky. The surrounding soil and stones were sent flying, sweeping towards everyone.

"Holy crap."

Su Xi and Gui Lao exchanged glances, sensing the power of the attack. They quickly dodged to the side, unwilling to bear the brunt of it.

The magical power fluctuations generated by the two were too immense. Even if they could withstand it, it would come at a great cost. Thus, if the situation allowed, there was no need to waste energy.

Tian Gang Zhenren and Lin Qing were both incredibly powerful individuals, already capable of ascension. Anyone who would choose to directly confront such an attack was clearly out of their mind.

"It seems they won't decide a winner anytime soon. Let's leave."

Su Xi glanced at Gui Lao and suddenly spoke.

"Go where?" Gui Lao looked at Su Xi, his face full of questions.

At this point in time, where should they be?

Would it be dangerous elsewhere outside?

Su Xi pointed behind them and said, "With the Ancestor here now, we can't intervene. So, we might as well find something to do and complete our own tasks."

Gui Lao felt helpless about Su Xi's reckless behavior but couldn't refuse. He could only obediently follow Su Xi as they walked away.

His mission was to protect Su Xi and ensure her safety. If anything happened to Su Xi, he wouldn't be able to survive either.

Lin Qing noticed Su Xi's intention to leave, his expression changing instantly. He began to move towards their departing path, intending to stop them.

Moving further inside would involve their secrets, and they certainly couldn't let anyone discover them.

However, since Tian Gang Zhenren was already waiting nearby, he couldn't allow anyone to harm his people in front of him.

Tian Gang Zhenren smiled, his figure flashing to appear in front of Lin Qing, and said, "Your opponent is me. Don't get distracted, or you'll die miserably."

Although Lin Qing was very anxious, he could not break free from Tian Gang Zhenren's obstruction and could only continue fighting.

Seizing this opportunity, Su Xi and Gui Lao followed the instructions of the supercomputer and walked into a black hole. They instantly discovered that not only were people watching, but many familiar faces were also staring at them.

???

Gui Lao saw this scene before him and looked at Su Xi doubtfully, his face filled with question marks.

What should they do now?

Were they here to die from such a distance?

This place was filled with Lin Qings, and these Lin Qings had already surrounded him, making escape impossible.

What to do?

Gui Lao looked at the situation before him, utterly bewildered.

This was clearly a situation where they would die.

He looked at Su Xi with anticipation, hoping to know if Su Xi had any backup plans to resolve the current predicament.

Su Xi was also a little surprised at this moment but quickly reacted.

After all, she had experienced similar situations before and knew that this was not as Gui Lao imagined.

Although each of the Lin Qings before them was incredibly powerful, they lacked Lin Qing's previous imposing aura and magical energy fluctuations. In other words, these people were mere puppets, not important individuals.

Upon hearing Su Xi's explanation, Gui Lao instantly understood and felt much relieved.

Indeed, if so many people possessed true strength, they would never have had a chance to get here.

They would have been dealt with long ago at the entrance.

Therefore, the only explanation now was that these people were all fake and posed no danger.

Even though he confirmed that these people were all fake, Gui Lao couldn't help but marvel.

These things were too amazing, too realistic, truly scaring him to death.

Not only did they look identical, but their auras were also the same as before. If Su Xi hadn't noticed, he wouldn't have realized the situation.

This situation was truly astonishing.

Su Xi glanced at Gui Lao and said, "This is because the person replicating them is not of the human race. That's why you wouldn't know this situation."

After confirming this, Gui Lao nodded, admitting that his knowledge was indeed limited.

If he had known these things were so formidable earlier, he wouldn't have ended up in this predicament.

He suddenly reminisced, wondering if it would have been better if he had remained trapped in Zhen Fal'i.

Although not free, at least he wouldn't have felt such a heart-pounding sensation.

Looking at the situation, Su Xi's face showed a troubled expression, and she said, "Now, let's quickly find Lin Qing."

Since those people captured Lin Qing to replicate more Lin Qings, the longer they delayed, the more Lin Qings would be created.

Once these manufactured Lin Qings were fully powered, dealing with them would not be easy.

Therefore, for the sake of safety, the most crucial matter was to find the original Lin Qing to prevent the crisis.

Gui Lao also realized that the numerous enemies before them were not the real threat.

If they were truly enemies, he would have no way to cope and would be reduced to a pulp.

Therefore, after confirming that what was before them was not real, Gui Lao began to gather all his aggression to vent.

At this moment, only by unleashing everything could all the problems be solved.

Seeing Gui Lao destroying these puppets, Su Xi hurriedly tried to stop him.

Although the Lin Qing before them was fake, the presence of so many of them indicated that they were not the genuine article.

Therefore, for safety, they couldn't destroy them carelessly, lest they alert the enemy.

As expected, the moment Su Xi saw Lin Qing, she was slightly surprised.

At this moment, it was imperative to ensure everything remained intact.

However, before Su Xi could stop Gui Lao, she saw him move with incredible speed, reducing everything around him to ruins.

Looking at the corpses scattered on the ground, Su Xi hadn't even had time to speak. Suddenly, she saw the Lin Qing fragments before her slowly wriggle.

As the corpses continued to writhe, they gradually converged in one direction. In just a few breaths, they reformed into a single entity.

At this moment, seeing the situation, Gui Lao felt a surge of a headache.

He turned to look at Su Xi, his face full of helplessness, not knowing what had happened.

Everything seemed normal, so why did it turn out like this? Kuai Shu Ge.

Su Xi also looked at Gui Lao, completely bewildered.

Don't look at me; I don't know anything either.

Didn't you cause all of this?

Although neither of them knew, the pile of minced meat on the ground had reassembled itself, reforming into Lin Qing's appearance.

His features were extremely similar. The only difference was that his body was several times larger than an ordinary Lin Qing, like a giant descended from the heavens.

Lin Qing looked at Su Xi and Gui Lao before him, his mouth twitching, a smile on his face.

"Originally, I wouldn't have let you go, but since you're seeking death, I'll reluctantly send you on your way." Lin Qing smiled, and his aura instantly surged as he charged towards Su Xi.

The force of this aura was so strong that Su Xi and the others had no time to react.

Even if they could think of a way to deal with it, it would be impossible to execute.

At this moment, facing such a powerful attack, Su Xi and Gui Lao could not think of a solution.

They had no idea what to do or how to resolve the problem before them.

However, although Su Xi didn't know what was happening, she knew very well that if they couldn't leave now, they wouldn't be able to leave at all.

Therefore, without any hesitation, she unleashed all her skills, intending to temporarily restrain Lin Qing and buy themselves a sliver of hope.

However, Lin Qing had already unleashed his full power, rendering all their attacks ineffective and canceling them out.

Su Xi held the Meteor God Sword and looked at Lin Qing ahead, anxiously saying to Gui Lao, "You keep him busy for now, and I'll find a way to deliver a fatal blow."

Gui Lao heard Su Xi's words and was filled with doubt.

Now, Su Xi still had a way to deal with Lin Qing?

Facing such a formidable Lin Qing, he couldn't think of any solution.

Although he didn't know what was happening, Gui Lao still nodded. Trying it wouldn't hurt, so what was the harm?

Facing Lin Qing, who was as resilient as himself, Gui Lao felt speechless.

At this moment, escaping was impossible. They could only trust Su Xi; perhaps there was still a chance to salvage the situation.

After all, Su Xi was a disciple of Tian Gang Zhenren, so she might truly have a way.

Furthermore, Gui Lao harbored a selfish motive: if Su Xi died now, the magical techniques on her would naturally lose their effect.

After all, he was immortal and couldn't die so easily, giving him the confidence to experiment.

Looking at everything before her, Su Xi did not give up. Instead, she activated the magical techniques she possessed.

She knew very well that even though Gui Lao had temporarily stalled Lin Qing, defeating Lin Qing was impossible.

Therefore, for her own safety, she absolutely could not be easily injured.

It was precisely for this reason that Su Xi was completely unconcerned at this moment. Instead, she hid all her intentions.

Since those people had begun replicating Lin Qing, they must have also replicated Lin Qing's weaknesses.

Therefore, by attacking this weakness now, they could easily deal with Lin Qing.
