"What are you all still standing around for? It is clear evidence that you have harbored a fugitive. If you do not bring her back within three days, the entire universe will be privy to the truth!"
With that, he left Blue Star via a transport cube, chasing after Jin Baoer! His retreating back carried a hint of a hasty escape...
The people who heard this were instantly at a loss. Those who could not stop him could only look to their respective Star Lords!
At this moment...
Jin Baoer manipulated the cube, recalling the envoy's figure. She frowned deeply, immediately realizing that this device had a tracking function! She frantically pondered how to sever the connection...
Perhaps her desperation was too great, for the cube flickered slightly, as if understanding her intent. The moment it appeared in space, it vanished again!
Ten-odd seconds later, another cube materialized in the original spot! The man on the cube coldly scanned his surroundings but found no trace of the intended figure.
The cube beneath his feet had also lost its pursuit...
His gaze flickered, his expression grave! His aura intensified for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, gritting his teeth and saying.
"Jin Baoer... regardless of whether you are her or not, I cannot let you disrupt the temple's restart!"
Meanwhile, Jin Baoer and the other person's vision darkened from the sudden rotation of the cube, almost causing them to faint...
When the spinning finally stopped, the cube crashed heavily onto the ground. The deafening impact against metal walls reverberated from beneath them, causing waves of pain and numbness! It hurt terribly.
It was as if their bodies had fallen from a great height and landed on solid concrete! If not for one of them possessing extremely high defense and the other's body being formed from merit, they would have surely been smashed to bloody pulp...
Jin Baoer, enduring the pain, immediately looked around, vigilant for any impending danger!
However, the scene before her made her expression change drastically!
Because... the entire world seemed to be encased in sheet metal. Beneath their feet and all around them, there was nothing but iron rocks and scattered iron plates...
It was entirely an Iron Star!!
She looked up at the dark sun in the sky. Its weak rays cast down an eerie, somber light...
"Thud, thud-thud..."
The sound of an iron nail falling onto the metal plating echoed. Jin Baoer immediately turned her head, seeing a small black shadow quickly disappear.
If not for the subtle fluctuation of elemental energy, she might have dismissed it as a mere illusion.
Gu Luoxian, who had just managed to get up from the ground, shivered as a cold wind blew past, making her scalp tingle...
"This... this place is so bizarre! Why is it all iron? And the sun is black... Is this hell?"
The woman's face was pale as she tightly clutched the arm of the person beside her, her gaze fixed on their surroundings.
Jin Baoer shook her head!
"How could there be spiritual energy in hell? Don't scare yourself. There must be some creatures here."
As soon as she finished speaking, the small planet responded!
"Rumble!"
The iron plating beneath their feet suddenly rose from the ground. All the iron rocks trembled and bounced on the ground. With a gust of wind, all the iron rocks rapidly converged...
A hundred-meter-tall entity soon appeared before them. From the structure of its limbs to the accumulation of its body, countless iron and stone blocks of various sizes formed a giant!
Jin Baoer's expression was grave. She immediately retracted her cube and, pulling Gu Luoxian with her, leaped backward with immense force, thus avoiding the possibility of being crushed by the giant's foot!
Consequently, they missed witnessing the moment the giant fully formed, as a small black shadow slipped into the giant's brow.
"Roar... Roar!!"
The giant, having missed its target, suddenly roared at the sky, flailing its limbs and striding forward. Its heavy steps shook the very earth, kicking up碎石 (suìshí - gravel/debris) that flew everywhere, forcing even Jin Baoer and the other to take to the air...
Seeing this, the giant lunged forward to grab them. The two tiny figures zipped through the air at extreme speed, pursued closely by two massive hands. A fierce wind swept past, nearly blowing Gu Luoxian away...
While dodging the giant's arms, Jin Baoer pondered how to resolve their current predicament. They were new arrivals, and this creature looked so bizarre. What if they defeated one, and more appeared?
The iron-stone giant, unable to catch the ants before it, finally grew impatient! It fiercely grabbed a nearby small mountain. The once-tall hill collapsed instantly, and countless碎石 (suìshí - gravel/debris) accompanied by iron filings rained down, revealing a large battle-axe clutched tightly by the giant within!
Jin Baoer's pupils constricted at the sight. She immediately turned and shouted at Gu Luoxian!
"Dodge quickly!"
As soon as the words left her mouth, the iron-stone giant swung the axe in its hand, cleaving down fiercely towards Gu Luoxian! Its speed was incredibly swift, the sharp axe piercing the sky as it descended!
"Bang!!"
A deafening sound erupted as the massive axe directly struck Gu Luoxian's forehead!
The oversized iron axe only grazed the ground with its tip where the woman stood. The rest of its bulk hung suspended, frozen in place as if the system had crashed. If one looked closely, they could still see the giant's straining hand...
Jin Baoer had no time to rescue her. To avoid the iron-stone giant's grasp, they had deliberately flown in opposite directions. It was too late to turn back now... m..oΓg
She quite liked this woman who had accompanied her for less than a month. Although her talent was a bit bizarre, her tongue was sharp, and her personality fiery, she was indeed a good person!
And now, the other person was dead like this...?
The thought had barely crossed her mind when she saw, beneath the iron filings and dust, a muscular, muscular figure!
The thick muscles on her arms and chest had ripped through her clothes. A huge axe was wedged into her head, yet not a single drop of blood was shed...
Despite looking somewhat disheveled, she was unexpectedly unharmed!
Jin Baoer was stunned! Her eyes widened in disbelief as she watched...
Gu Luoxian stood firm, the iron ground beneath her feet indented with a semi-circular pit, indicating the terrifying force of the axe above her head...
Yet, she simply stood there, refusing to fall.
After a moment, she suddenly moved!
Both her hands lifted upwards, pressing against the blade of the axe, and then slowly pushed it upwards...
Defense-type talent! Amplified!!
At this moment, Jin Baoer finally understood the meaning of that phrase! Amplified, not by a little, but by a heaven-defying degree!
At this point, the woman on the ground suddenly released her grip, retreated swiftly, and with a series of backflips, flew into the air...
"Pah! You bastard dared to swing at your auntie's face? If I don't kill you today, I'll take your surname!"
Gu Luoxian was furious, her face as dark as could be. Especially with a prominent purple bruise on her forehead, which looked both hilarious and enraged.
Clearly, she had been provoked!
Jin Baoer silently withdrew the worry from her face and slowly landed with a blank expression!
She felt that this time, she wouldn't have to make a move...
