This was the first time Wang Ming and Guo Ping had seen so many people dressed in black shadow suits appear at the same time. The other side's actions were clear and had clearly been premeditated.
When Guo Ping had called the research institute earlier, there had been screams; presumably, the institute had also been attacked by the black shadow men.
But what Guo Ping didn't understand was that the black shadow suits were Daoist robes in the country's top secret strategic plan. To be able to mass-produce them and launch an armed raid in such large numbers, the other side's background was definitely no small matter.
"Are they from the Dark Network or the dark forces?" Wang Ming pondered a lot of things in that short moment.
This group of people were fully armed and had a well-planned plan. To be able to launch a perfect surprise attack at the same time wasn't something that an ordinary Dark Network or dark force could do. Furthermore, almost all the members of the Dark Network and dark forces were currently under surveillance, and these forces had all been infiltrated by the cultivation police and had been infiltrated by undercover agents.
This undercover plan was also known as "Three Years on the Rooftop, Three More Years Baby Zither Wine Is Bitter That There's No One Normal By His Side Plan."
The name of the plan sounded very long, but the security measures were in place. Other than the undercover personnel, no one would be able to repeat the name of the plan after hearing it only once. So, as long as they did not repeat it completely, they were all fake spies!
"Wang Ming … this group of people is very strong, we're no match for them! Also, they don't seem to be using spirit energy … "Unlike Wang Ming, Guo Ping also had the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator, but when faced with the Nascent Soul black shadow men, he trembled.
This group of people didn't use spirit energy to activate spells, and this unknown element terrified them.
Thus, the moment this group of black shadow men barged in, Wang Ming and Guo Ping instinctively hid behind Wang Ling.
The black shadow leader with the knife sneered; he didn't know Wang Ling's identity. "A bunch of researchers hiding behind a youngster, what utter stupidity … forget it, all of you here will die!"
Saying this, he chopped down at Wang Ling's head with his saber. The saber cut through the air with ferocious force, and the saber's blade cut through the air at a high speed, causing steam to rise.
The saber rose and the head fell!
But this was just the black shadow man's imagination.
The truth was that the moment this knife approached Wang Ling, he didn't even move his head when he was in control. Firepower instantly gathered in his King's Eye, and a laser shot out swiftly, instantly reducing the knife to dust …
Unlike the villains who had been killed in a split second earlier, the black shadow leader reacted extremely quickly. The moment Wang Ling's defensive light beam shattered the blade, he immediately abandoned his sword and retreated.
At the same time, a sense of danger crept into his heart …
"This person, what the hell is going on …" The leader of the black shadows broke out in a cold sweat.
He had no doubt that if he had hesitated just now, his entire body would have been crushed to ashes by Wang Ling's defensive light along with the disappearing blade …
"Retreat!"
The leader of the shadowy figures immediately gave the order.
Their original plan was to wipe out all the researchers in the world. If the attack failed, they could choose to retreat and report the situation. After that, the organization would come up with a plan to deal with the researchers that they failed to kill.
The five of them were originally full of confidence after breaking into the noodle house. Like Bai Youquan, they relied on their new power to do whatever they wanted.
They were also at the Nascent Soul stage, but their strength was several times stronger than that of a normal Nascent Soul cultivator.
Because of this, the moment they broke into the noodle house, Guo Ping, who was also at the Nascent Soul stage, shuddered.
They had already locked onto Guo Ping and Wang Ming's positions earlier on, but had overlooked the factor of Wang Ling.
Wang Ling was too powerful, and the five shadow men's assassination plan couldn't proceed smoothly.
Thus, they wanted to retreat.
They activated the escape button on their black shadow suits, and in a split second, the five of them turned into shadows in the air as they turned into streams of black light that fled in one direction.
But it was already too late.
At that moment, in control, Wang Ling's unfocused eyes finally focused.
Wang Ling was back.
He had already investigated what he wanted to investigate. Although he hadn't obtained any useful information, the moment his soul had returned, the memories from when he had been in control poured into Wang Ling's mind.
"Stay here."
Wang Ling stared expressionlessly at the five shadow men. He knew that they were running away to report back, so all the more he couldn't let them escape.
Thus, Wang Ling spread open his fingers and grabbed the five shadow men who had already escaped out of thin air.
"Ahhhh!"
The five shadowy figures let out miserable screams one after another. Like strung cheese, they were pulled back from the void. Then, the five of them fell to the ground, piled on top of each other.
At the same time, Wang Ling finally realized that these five people weren't like the cultivators he usually dealt with. He had only used the strength of pinching an ant to cautiously pull them back, but he felt an unprecedented resistance.
As Guo Ping had said, they weren't normal cultivators who used spirit energy to power spells, but an unknown energy that was denser than "primordial qi" was used to power the spells.
This piqued Wang Ling's interest.
Because the primordial qi was too powerful, Wang Ling had always been looking for a way to suppress it, and relying solely on the Dao talisman seal wasn't going to work. Sooner or later, he would think of a way to master this power himself.
But now, an energy that was even denser than primordial qi had actually appeared.
Then, how had this group of shadow men been controlled?
In an instant, Wang Ling pondered a lot of things.
Several magic rings fell on the five people, and they were immediately imprisoned by Wang Ling's power of Heavenly Dao. Because he wasn't sure how strong these people were, he deliberately used a little more strength this time.
The five people were imprisoned on the spot. Wang Ling clapped his hands; for the first time, he felt that catching people was actually a strenuous task. It looked like he would have to eat a few more crispy noodle snacks today to replenish his SP …
In that round of consumption just now, if a full bar of SP was 100, he had used up a whole three points! What a terrifying thing this was!
After all, when he had dealt with Evil Sword God back then, he had only used up one SP!
Just five Nascent Soul cultivators were already so difficult to deal with; who knew what kind of enemies he would encounter in the future.
At that moment, a figure covered in blood staggered into the noodle shop.
"Zhai Yin!" Wang Ming cried out in alarm when he saw who it was.
