What a terrifying Crystal Suit it was!
They were all in the dim color of blood, as if they were made of dried blood. Human faces were protruding out of the surface of the armor, whether it was the breastplate, the shoulder plate, the back plate, the arms, or even the legs!
Most of the faces on the crystal suit were moaning in pain, but some of them were in fury and hideous laughter. Every face was as vivid as a real person. Even the tiniest trace of the muscles on the crystal suit seemed to have been carved. Countless wronged souls seemed to be haunting the crystal suit. One could hear their endless cries after just one look.
What was even weirder was that, as Fengyu Zhong's soul was burning and his spiritual energy was triggered, the painful faces were even twisting and changing their expressions.
It was as if a hundred human faces had been sealed inside the crystal suit by a secret technique!
The Crystal Suit was named 'Blood Face'. It was from the Temple of Immortals. When it was forged, a hundred Cultivators had been sacrificed for blood. Finally, the Crystal Suit boasted a very powerful ability to attack the soul!
The moment the Blood Face Battlesuit appeared, gloomy wind was blowing in the cockpit. Ghosts were crying, and the place was drowned in the horror of a storm of blood.
Even the members of Storm Prison felt that their blood was freezing. They were unwilling to look at the twisted faces on the Crystal Suit.
Many crew members who were not mentally strong were shuddering in fear, their faces pale, and they felt nauseous.
Ten minutes later, Fengyu Zhong was standing in the boundless sea of stars outside of Blood Rain!
He was wearing the Blood Face Battlesuit and standing on a special super assault rocket.
BOOM!
Around him, an incomparably violent purple ball of light suddenly appeared, surrounded by black lightning that could tear everything apart. It completely surrounded him and the assault rocket under his feet!
Under the surging spiritual energy, the spiritual stripes carved on the assault rocket were glittering, and flames were surging out of its tail!
The exhaust flames of one of the assault rockets were not much dimmer than those of Blood Rain. Its speed was accelerated to the maximum and was more than ten times faster than the assault rockets of common space pirates!
Jin Dan's expert Fengyu Zhong stepped on the assault rocket like the ancient Cultivators on flying swords. He and the sword merged into one and darted toward the planetary ring in a streak of brilliance!
…
While Fengyu Zhong was rushing to the planetary ring desperately, trying to kill Li Yao … Deep inside the boundless sea of stars behind Storm Prison, a ragged starship was stealthily moving forward. Two broken horns protruded from the head of the starship to the two sides. The fracture was stubbornly shining with a fierce fighting spirit.
Gold Horn had caught up!
At this moment, Gold Horn seemed to be in a mess. It had been repaired with a lot of components and units from the other two starships. Although the high-speed cruising ability had been restored, its appearance was ragged and covered in patches. It couldn't have looked more hideous.
Four hundred silent Cultivators were standing on the main deck of Gold Horn. They were like four hundred swords that had been stabbed into the deck. The saber had cracked and even broken, but it was still unbent.
What kind of four hundred Cultivators were they?
Their faces were smeared with blood, and most of them were wrapped in bandages. Some of them even had traces of blood seeping through their bandages, and some of them were even missing half an arm!
The Crystal Suit they were wearing was ragged, too. Almost every Crystal Suit had to be repaired by dismantling parts of other Crystal Suits. Some of the Crystal Suits were even jumbled up with the debris of three or four Crystal Suits.
They were mottled, colorful, and haphazardly jumbled together. They were the equipment of beggars.
At this moment, the defeated soldiers, who were wearing ragged Crystal Suits like beggars, held their heads high and were brimming with killing intent. The ragged Crystal Suits they were wearing couldn't bear the scorching flames. Huala! Huala! Huala!
Lei Dalu stood in front of the four hundred Cultivators and looked around.
His crystal suit was perhaps the most ragged and ugliest of the four hundred crystal suits that Li Yao had seen.
However, his expression was the most arrogant and prideful. He was like a great general who had won a hundred battles.
"Brothers, I will now briefly retell everything that happened in the past few days!
"First of all, we ambushed the space pirates here with a large group of people. But we failed to ambush them at all. Instead, we were tricked by them. They took advantage of our weakness and looted our nest!
"In the Skyhill Domain alone, more than forty thousand people have died. More than forty thousand lives!"
"Then, our three starships were ambushed by Fengyu Zhong in secret. We were pressed to the ground and hammered by the space pirates. Every one of us was beaten black and blue by the space pirates. We were so miserable that we were almost vomiting dog sh * t!
"In the end, when we were caught in desperation and were about to be butchered by the space pirates like pigs, one person — yes, one person — crossed the sea of stars and came all the way here. He reversed the situation on his own. Not only did he destroy one of the starships of Storm Prison, he also attracted the attention of the main force of the space pirates and saved all of our lives!
"Right now, the person is surrounded by four crystal warships, almost a thousand space pirates, and a Jin Dan expert!
"We have two choices!
"Firstly, we can stay here and watch the space pirates on the four crystal warships surround the guy who has come all the way here to save us and exhaust him to death!"
"Then, we will finally be rescued. After we return to the world of Cultivators, we will hold a solemn ceremony to mourn the great hero. We will weep and swear that we will avenge him!
"Nobody will accuse us of anything wrong. Except for the occasional bit of guilt we feel when we are alone in the middle of the night, there is nothing wrong with our decision at all!
"It is the most normal, reasonable, rational, and reasonable choice that we should make!
"Secondly, if you don't want to make such a choice, a choice that seems reasonable but is actually a cowardly one, and if you want to make a crazier and more manly choice, charge forward with me and fight side by side with the man who came all the way here to save us all by himself!
"Yes. You're not mistaken. What our enemy is using to cover our retreat is Blood Rain, the flagship of Storm Prison, which is the heaviest and strongest in terms of combat ability!"
"Fengyu Zhong, the expert of Jin Dan, is probably on board right now!
"But it has been four days since we sent out the first distress signal!
"I can guarantee that countless reinforcements are hurrying to the Iron Plateau Space Zone right now. Chances are that reinforcements will show up in the next second!
"Even if we cannot destroy Blood Rain, as long as we bite it for one day, one day, one day... One hour, one minute, or even one second, a large batch of reinforcements will arrive and surround Fengyu Zhong heavily. In the end, he will be crushed and killed!
"The operation this time is very dangerous. Chances are that we will all die in vain if the reinforcements don't arrive even after we bleed all of our blood!
"Therefore, it is reasonable and normal that some of us quit. Let's take a step back now. Stay in the starship!
"Brothers, let's charge at Blood Rain with me!"
"Don't forget, there's still a Cultivator fighting alone in the front!"
"Even if we cannot rescue him, at the very least, our hot blood will flow together with such a good brother and a good man in the cold universe!"
The four hundred Cultivators were like four hundred unbending sabers. Heavy breaths sounded like the friction between the edge of a saber and the sheath of a saber.
Not a single person retreated half a step.
On the contrary, many of them secretly took a step forward.
"Listen up, Cultivators of Soaring Eagle!"
Jing Yong, a Level One Deacon of the Soaring Eagle Gang, stepped forward and glared at the dozens of Cultivators on the left flank. He shouted, "When we set sail from our hometown and started the expedition, our parents and seniors were all there to see us off, hoping that we would make a name for ourselves in the Soaring Eagle Space Zone in the sea of stars!
"As it turned out, we crossed dozens of space zones and traveled thousands of kilometers to this place. But we were pressed to the ground, trampled on, and butchered like pigs and dogs!
"Of our five hundred brothers, three hundred were killed, and the rest were heavily wounded. Our starship is on the brink of destruction, too!
"Are we going to run back to our hometown with our tails between our legs like this?
"By then, how are we going to answer the questions of our parents and seniors when they see how miserable we are and how our brothers and sisters are reduced to dust with nothing but their nameplates left?
"They will ask us how many space pirates we have slain and how many warships we have destroyed. What will we say to them?
"We are the biggest sect in the Soaring Eagle Space Zone!
"Right now, we have one last chance to avenge our brothers and sisters and show the space pirates what the Cultivators of Soaring Eagle are like!"
"Huo!"
The dozens of soldiers of Swooping Eagle roared, and their spiritual energy surged out. Visible flames of spiritual energy were triggered from the backs of the broken crystal suits and congregated into glamorous wings, making them look like eagles that were flapping their wings and about to take flight!
"Listen up, disciples of the Flowing Flower Sect!"
Xin Hongde, an elder of the Flowing Flower Sect, stepped forward, too. Although his voice was not loud, it was resolute and pierced into the deck below everyone's feet like nails. "A month ago, weren't you wondering why the Great Horn Exo Society, a medium-sized Exo Society with only one Cultivator in the beginning level of the Core Formation Stage, could rise to fame in only half a year?
"Today, you will know the answer to that!
"The Flowing Flower Sect is just a common second-tier sect in the Flowing Flower Space Zone at the edge of the Flying Star Sector. Many Cultivators in Heavenly Saints City have never even heard of our name before!
"However, after today's battle, the Flowing Flower Sect will be as famous as the Great Horn Exo Society and the Soaring Eagle Sect. Our name will resound in the universe!
"With my blood, the name of the Flowing Flower Sect will be established!"
"He!"
The dozens of Cultivators on the right, who were wearing the emblem of a red flower bud on their chest, roared nonstop. Spiritual energy burst out of their bodies and blossomed like red chrysanthemums.
"Captain Lei!"
Jing Yong and Xin Hongde stared at Lei Dalu with shining eyes and said at the same time, "The Great Horn Exo Society is not the only one who deserves to be a hero!
"If we are going to be crazy today, let's be crazy together!"
Lei Dalu burst into laughter. He slashed his heavy axe down brutally. Although the wound on his shoulder exploded again and blood was spurting out, he was not bothered at all. He roared even louder than before.
"Whether or not Fengyu Zhong predicted that we would hunt him down, and whether or not he has set up another trap, we don't have time to worry about that now!
"We are all Cultivators. What matters most is who is crazier, crazier, and more reckless!
"Fengyu Zhong, let's see who is the most fearless desperados in the boundless space right now!
"Cultivators, march forward!"
The fifth watch was in place.
Six days after November, it was the fourth watch.
