Inside the training room, Xia Fei was sweating profusely.
It had been a long time since he had such a satisfying speed training session. As a warrior who had learned a lot, Xia Fei's cultivation used a siege mode. He would set a goal and then use all his resources to achieve a breakthrough in the shortest time possible.
From the various laws to the Soul Seal that represented dark energy, everything was the same. Only speed, the most difficult and heaven-defying law in the world, had delayed Xia Fei for a long time.
One more step and he would be at the pinnacle of speed, reaching the limit of sixty million meters per second! However, this step was ridiculously difficult. Xia Fei had almost forgotten how long he had been stuck at this stage.
Aside from his ancestor, Xia Gucheng, Xia Fei had never seen anyone who had reached the pinnacle of speed. This was enough to prove just how difficult the Law of Speed was.
The Skywing Race had their own unique cultivation method, and it was this method, coupled with Xia Fei's extraordinary energy reserves, that had brought Xia Fei to the pinnacle, level 8. It seemed that Xia Fei still needed a bit of luck to reach the pinnacle.
"Dark Soul's facilities are really not bad. Even taking a bath is so comfortable," Xia Fei muttered to himself as he soaked in the bathtub and closed his eyes.
This was no ordinary bath water but a green liquid that was evenly distributed with spiritual energy. Rare medicinal ingredients and precious spiritual energy were actually not used for drinking but for bathing! Xia Fei could not help but sigh at the extravagance of life in the 29th Division.
It was about time. Xia Fei put on his clothes and carefully hid the Sky Demon Plate Armor before meeting up with the rest at the landing pad at the crater.
The price of enjoying first-rate facilities was a heavy workload. Xiu Zetian had to go on a mission the very next day after he joined the 29th Division. Xiu Zetian, who was bent on avenging his wife, made the 29th Division feel like an arrow nocked on a bowstring, every day in a state of tension.
Other than that, Xia Fei also realized that Xiang Ying would always' coincidentally 'appear by his side. It seemed that Xiu Zetian was not completely unguarded against him. Xiang Ying was like a spy that he had placed by Xia Fei's side, observing his every move.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight …
Xia Fei did a mental count. Including himself and Xiu Zetian, Dark Soul actually only had ten people on standby, just enough to form a small team. As for those left in the base, they were mostly support and reserve personnel. As the famous Black Operation of the new Hero Alliance, the number of people in the 29th Bureau was truly not that many.
* Whoosh ~ *
Once the time was up, everyone boarded the battleship and left. Only Xiu Zetian knew the exact location of the target.
After thirty hours of continuous flight and passing through countless spatial arrays, the battleship finally arrived at its destination.
This was a giant boulder that was as hard as steel. It was as flat as a mirror, and someone had hollowed out the boulder to build a ring-shaped fortress. It was as if someone had placed a ring flat on the surface of ice, and it was even more obvious than what Xia Fei had seen in the blueprints.
Why would the remaining Evil Shadow Dragonriders hide in such a conspicuous place? Xia Fei did not believe it. Moreover, the construction style of this temporary fortress was extremely sharp, somewhat similar to the demonic city that Xia Fei had been to before.
Xiu Zetian waved his hand and said, "According to the arrangements, Haolin, take two people with you to guard the perimeter. The rest of you, follow me."
The elites of the 29th Division were well-trained. Hao Lin brought two people and immediately set up a defensive array around the perimeter, while the rest followed Xiu Zetian into the temporary fortress.
Several minutes later, Xia Fei watched as Xiu Zetian deployed his men to the perimeter to carry out the search. Only Xia Fei and Xiu Zetian ventured deep into the fortress.
There was an express passageway that looked like a fireman's slide. Xia Fei and Xiu Zetian slid down the slide and entered a semi-circular room. This place was empty, and it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
Xiu Zetian came to a halt here and turned around to ask Xia Fei, "Do you know what this place is?"
"I'm afraid that it's a temporary barracks of the demonic race," Xia Fei answered straightforwardly.
Xiu Zetian was slightly taken aback, looking at Xia Fei with some surprise in his eyes as he asked, "How can you tell?"
Xia Fei looked around and softly said, "The lines are sharp, and it's the style of the demonic race. The construction is somewhat crude, so it's obvious that it's temporary. The scale isn't small, and it can accommodate an entire army. It's been a long time, and there are signs of weathering in many places. Based on these four points, I'm certain that this is a temporary barracks built by the demonic race.
"Though you've made some tactical arrangements, they're only meant to fool the eyes and ears of others. If those traitorous Evil Shadow Dragonriders were to encounter them, they'll be at a huge disadvantage. Furthermore, this isn't the first time you've been here, so you're very familiar with the structure of this fortress planet. You've been brimming with confidence the entire time, so I'm certain that Yabu and his men aren't here at all. You must have some other goal."
Xia Fei's answer was naturally very interesting, able to analyze Xiu Zetian's true intentions in just two short sentences.
This was a strategy. Xia Fei knew that the 29th Division was filled with experts, so he needed to first prove his worth. At the very least, he needed to make Xiu Zetian understand that Xia Fei was not a nobody.
"That's right!" Xiu Zetian frankly said, "This is indeed a temporary camp for the Evil Shadow Dragonriders when they're marching. This is also a combat habit of the demonic race. Even if it's just a night here, they'll build a fortress that can defend against sneak attacks according to their needs.
"I won't hide it from you. Back then, the Evil Shadow Dragonriders set off from here, heading to the predetermined location to engage in the final battle with the other three dragonriders, but after they left this place, they didn't appear on the battlefield."
Xia Fei nodded and sternly said, "In that case, this place is indeed worth investigating, but since you've already investigated it yourself, why do you still need me?"
Xiu Zetian strode over to a corner and pointed at the wall. "I've indeed investigated this place more than once, but I can't get into the demonic race's military headquarters."
* Bang! *
With that, Xiu Zetian struck the wall with his palm, and the wall suddenly parted, revealing another room. Xia Fei curiously walked over to Xiu Zetian's side and stared at the entrance.
"Look!"
Xiu Zetian thrust his right hand into the passageway, and the sound of barbecuing could be heard. Half of Xiu Zetian's hand had been scorched.
For an expert of his level, superficial wounds were nothing. Xiu Zetian shook his hand, took out a tube of foul-smelling medicine, and smeared it on his hand.
"The demonic race is a master tactician. They'll constantly run simulations of their plans, so the Evil Shadow Dragonriders' temporary fortress also has a special room for discussing tactics, called the military headquarters. In order to prevent enemies from eavesdropping, they'll set up a strict seal. I've tried many times, but I can't get in, "Xiu Zetian said.
Xia Fei laughed and muttered to himself, "So you need me to go in."
"That's right. You have their bloodline, so only you can enter this place!" Xiu Zetian said.
Xia Fei frowned. There were many kinds of restrictions in this world, and Xiu Zetian's way of thinking was a little too arbitrary. If the restriction here was not of the bloodline type, then Xia Fei would have no way of getting in.
Moreover, Xia Fei was not a hundred percent demonic race.
After some thought, Xia Fei also extended a hand toward the entrance. Instantly, an unbearable burning sensation crawled up Xia Fei's arm.
Xia Fei's heart chilled. Evidently, he could not enter this restriction either! He did not know what kind of strange technique it was that could actually burn someone's body! Looking at the entrance, there were no energy fluctuations at all, so where did this burning sensation come from?
Just as Xia Fei was about to pull his arm back, something strange happened!
Xia Fei was wearing two rings on his hand. Aside from the super-large spatial ring, Rainbow, there was also the demonic inheritance ring that the old ancestor had given him!
It was this demonic ring that was actually able to counteract that piercing burning sensation. It was as if someone had applied a layer of cooling oil on Xia Fei's arm, blocking the burning sensation!
"As expected! My guess was right; this is a bloodline seal! Only the demonic race can enter! "Xiu Zetian's eyes glowed as he excitedly said.
Xia Fei did his best to maintain his composure. It was fortunate that the old ancestor had given him this strange black ring, or else he would have been burned to a crisp if he had tried to barge in.
"It's all up to you now. Go in and see just what's so strange about the Evil Shadow Dragonriders' temporary military office!" Xiu Zetian panted heavily as if he had been waiting for this day for a very long time.
Xia Fei calmly pulled his arm back and stroked his chin. "I suddenly thought of something."
Xiu Zetian was stunned for a moment before he burst into laughter. "I'm no fool. Just state your conditions!"
Of course, Xia Fei wanted to talk about conditions. This was exactly what it meant to be a needle in a hole.
"It's not any conditions. It's just that I have a type of nature-type weapon. You should know this as well. There are a total of five nature-type weapons, and I've only obtained three of them. The other two are still in the Alpha Universe, but I'm not sure who has them."
Xia Fei said unhurriedly.
Yuan immediately understood. Xia Fei was purposely testing out how crazy Xiu Zetian was in order to come up with a strategy!
If Xiu Zetian was mature and prudent, Xia Fei would not be able to gain much from him, and if Xiu Zetian refused to give in to anyone and only wanted to avenge his wife, Xia Fei would be able to use this opportunity to reap his own benefits!
"Alpha? No problem! I can't guarantee anything about Annihilation, but Alpha is just a low-level universe. Who cares if they live or die? When I get back, I'll get someone to investigate it for you! You'll definitely be able to find whoever you want! You should be satisfied with this, right? "Xiu Zetian said in one breath.
Xia Fei knew when to stop, pretending to be very moved as he said to Xiu Zetian, "It's hard to repay this great favor. Xia Fei won't refuse even if I have to shatter my bones! Chieftain, Xia Fei will go in now and see just what's going on inside! "
Back then, the Immemorial Mystical Armaments had entered the Alpha Universe with Xia Fei and parasitized someone else.
Now that Xia Fei was in Annihilation, the other two Immemorial Mystical Armaments remained in Alpha. After all, they were already parasitized, and unless the host died, the Immemorial Mystical Armaments would not move.
In the Alpha Universe, Xia Fei was like searching for a needle in a haystack, but Xia Fei was now in Annihilation! He had even entered the infamous Dark Soul! He could use the power of Annihilation to find them! Snatch the Immemorial Mystical Armaments! Complete the final fusion of the five Immemorial Mystical Armaments!
After saying this, Xia Fei walked into the passageway leading to the Grand Council, Xiu Zetian's voice coming from behind him.
"Be careful! The Shadow Dragon Riders began their betrayal here! There must be some unspeakable secret in their final strategy! "
