Bai Xinghe's Dragon King Battlesuit was one of the most unique Crystal Suits in the entire Flying Star Sector. The dragon-like artificial limbs left from the Star Ocean Imperium were unique. HUM.
At this moment, almost a hundred super crystal processors were calculating at the same time. The files of the Dragon King Battlesuit that they had collected in the past were retrieved and compared carefully.
Ten minutes later, the conclusion was that the dragon-like artificial limbs were more than 95% similar to the components of the Dragon King Battlesuit!
In the meantime, the preliminary calculation on the speed, strength, and combat ability of the mysterious expert was concluded, too.
"Long Feihu was a Cultivator at the high level of the Core Formation Stage who had dominated the Heavenly Sword Arena for decades. His combat ability was very high, but he was crushed by the mysterious expert after only one attack!
"Every star beacon was protected by powerful defense rune arrays, which could at least resist the full-strength strike of the main gun of a crystal warship or the strongest attack of an expert such as Jin Dan. But they were still blown into smithereens by the mysterious expert in the blink of an eye!
"The combat ability that the mysterious expert demonstrated in only one minute was definitely in the Yuanying level!"
Very soon, more and more videos, files, and data jumped out before everyone's eyes.
Long Feihu's crystal camera captured the first-person perspective of the mysterious expert.
Long Feihu was experienced enough to know that he was no match for the mysterious expert. Therefore, he simply moved his head according to the trajectory of the mysterious expert and controlled the crystal camera to capture a relatively stable picture that lasted 2.1 seconds.
Other than capturing visible light, crystal cameras could also capture and analyze the invisible light that was invisible to the naked eye.
Some advanced crystal cameras were installed with special rune arrays to capture the radiations that were released when spiritual energy flowed.
By analyzing the radiations, the crystal camera would be able to determine the trajectory of the mysterious expert's spiritual energy.
On Long Feihu's Crystal Suit. There was such a crystal camera.
"The spiritual energy circulation pattern of the mysterious expert is 75% similar to Bai Xinghe's' Dominating Ocean Arts'. They are basically the same Cultivation Art.
"The 'Dominating Ocean Arts', on the other hand, is Bai Xinghe's unique technique. It is said that he inherited it from Yan Xinjian, the supreme space pirate five hundred years ago. Bai Xinghe has never taught it to anyone. Even Bai Wulei, his first true disciple, has never learned the 'Dominating Ocean Arts'! "
The series of strange conclusions made the command center fall into an eerie silence.
Five years ago, after the great fire on Spider Den, the Cultivators had collected a lot of information, too. They knew that Bai Xinghe had been killed because of the power struggle between him and the Immortal Cultivators.
At this moment, Bai Xinghe, who had disappeared for five years, was in the middle of nowhere. Reappearing in front of the world?
"I suggest."
Xiao Xuance did not say anything for a long time. Coldness suddenly flashed in Si Koulie's eyes as he said solemnly, "Whether or not the man is Xiao Xuance, he has at least the combat ability of the Yuanying level. We cannot let go of him easily!
"We should set up a quick response team to deal with this mysterious powerhouse and focus on collecting information about him. Lock onto his position and carry out targeted exercises. Formulate several plans to capture and kill them! "
"For this person to suddenly appear, he must be up to something. We have to prepare early so that we won't be caught off guard!"
Xiao Xuance frowned slightly, but he quickly stabilized his expression. His eyes, which had been flickering a moment ago, were now filled with determination. He immediately regained his composure and nodded. "Alliance Leader Si is right. A Nascent Soul cultivator with unknown identity and unknown purpose is always a cause for concern. We should indeed make preparations in advance so that he will not become an unexpected factor in our final battle! As for the members of the quick response team … "
Before Xiao Xuance opened his mouth, Si Koulie had already said, "The enemy is a Yuanying expert. Of course, all the Yuanying experts on our side must join them. Other than that, all the sects should summon their best men, especially the experts who are adept at tracking, localization, eavesdropping, and detection!"
Si Koulie's proposal was reasonable. Xiao Xuance had no reason to argue with him. He immediately agreed. "Alright!"
…
Three hours later, in the headquarters of the Storm Prison Pirate Gang in Capital Nest on Spider Den …
Fengyu Zhong paced back and forth anxiously. He coughed every now and then, and his back was even hunched.
Ever since he killed Bai Xinghe five years ago and became the nominal ruler of Spider Den, the new Pirate Potentate had never been so anxious.
In front of Fengyu Zhong, the air above a light beam projector suddenly twisted and rose up like smoke.
A moment later, the green smoke condensed into an illusory figure.
Fengyu Zhong was refreshed. He walked forward and bowed. "Lotus King!"
The Lotus King was emotionless, as if he were wearing a lousy mask made of human skin. He asked straightforwardly, "Did you really kill Bai Xinghe five years ago?"
The mysterious Yuanying's appearance puzzled the space pirates, too. Fengyu Zhong had watched the battle video half a day ago and knew that the Lotus King would ask such a question. He nodded and said, "I think so. After we escaped from the underground fortress, we studied the video together. Bai Xinghe was hit by me and the Black King at the same time. More than half of his heart was blown up, and his internal organs were almost burnt to ashes. There was no way that he could have survived."
The Lotus King said coldly, "But you did not find the body."
"It can't be helped," Fengyu Zhong said helplessly.
Fengyu Zhong said helplessly, "The entire underground fortress is flooded with water and blocked by rocks and mud. Digging a body out of it is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Besides, there are terrifying apocalyptic beasts below the ground. It is very likely that Bai Xinghe's body has been swallowed by the apocalyptic beasts a long time ago. Even if we turn the underground fortress upside down with tremendous manpower and resources, we still won't find anything."
The Lotus King nodded and agreed with Fengyu Zhong's answer. He suddenly changed the topic and said, "There is one thing that is very strange. After the mysterious expert destroyed two star beacons, he suddenly stopped for 2.7 seconds, as if he could not catch his breath.
"Everything changes on a battlefield. Three seconds is more than enough for many experts to lock onto him. Why did he do that?"
Fengyu Zhong was dazed, not quite understanding what the Lotus King meant.
The Lotus King continued. "I've inferred three possibilities about the matter. Now, I want to confirm with you if there is a fourth possibility.
"Firstly, the man is Bai Xinghe. Five years ago, he was heavily wounded by you and the Black King. He snuck into the underground and found a nest to treat his wounds. Right now, he has finally recovered and is out here to seek revenge."
Fengyu Zhong shook his head and said, "That's impossible. His heart exploded, his internal organs were burnt, his spine was shattered, and even his' Yuanying 'was shattered. Such fatal wounds are not something that can be recovered in five years even if he is not dead yet."
The Lotus King's face remained unchanged as he continued. "Secondly, the man is not Bai Xinghe but Bai Xinghe's secret disciple. Or maybe, he received Bai Xinghe's heritage by accident."
Fengyu Zhong thought for a moment and said, "That is a reasonable possibility. But there are still a lot of suspicious points. Bai Xinghe raised a disciple in the Yuanying stage and hid him for decades? Then, why didn't he show up in the great battle five years ago?
"What if someone received Bai Xinghe's heritage after his death and advanced into the Yuanying stage in only five years? That would be even more absurd! "
"Then, there is only one last possibility left," the Lotus King said. "Under the joint attack of you and the Black King, Bai Xinghe was indeed killed, but he was resurrected in a new body!"
Fengyu Zhong's eyes suddenly shone. "Possession?"
He smashed his fists hard and said, "Right. Right. If it was possession, everything makes sense. At that time, the Black King and I did not completely kill Bai Xinghe. He escaped with his last breath and found a suitable body. Then, he performed the secret arts of possession and came back to life in a new body!"
"Is there a fourth possibility?" the Lotus King asked.
Fengyu Zhong pondered for a moment and shook his head. "No. Absolutely not!"
"Alright!"
The Lotus King made up his mind quickly. "Then, let's make a plan to deal with the man based on the three possibilities!
"First of all, we need to make sure that, whether the man is the heavily wounded Bai Xinghe, Bai Xinghe's disciple, or he has possessed someone else's body, how high is his Cultivation exactly?"
Fengyu Zhong rolled his eyes and said, "I understand what you mean now, Lotus King. Bai Xinghe was heavily wounded. It was impossible for him to return to his peak state even after five years of rest.
"But if the man is Bai Xinghe's disciple, it is impossible for him to advance into the Yuanying stage in only five years, is it?
"It is the same logic for the reincarnation. After five years of possession, although the soul is in the Yuanying stage, it is impossible for the body of flesh and blood to be as strong as before.
"Therefore, the man's capability should not be in the real Yuanying stage. He must have temporarily reached the Yuanying stage through a certain secret arts!"
"Yes," the Lotus King said. "That's why he suddenly stiffened for 2.7 seconds after a fierce battle.
"He was exhausted. Maybe his soul and his body were not fully integrated yet. Or maybe he was suffering from the recoil because of the secret arts he used.
"However, we need to confirm it with other parties. We cannot jump to any conclusion yet!
"All in all, the man is a major variable. He is a greater threat to us than anyone else in the world of Cultivators. We have to focus all our resources on him. First of all, we have to confirm his real capability and come up with an effective annihilation plan. Secondly, we have to lock onto his location as soon as possible, whatever the cost. I need to know where he is hiding!"
"Lotus King!"
Fengyu Zhong hesitated for a moment but decided to tell the truth. "Half an hour ago, I received a message that a 'Spiritual Sparrow' -level crystal warship of the Purple Flame Pirate Gang was missing."
Lightning was flashing in the Lotus King's eyes. "Missing? What do you mean? "
Fengyu Zhong explained, "The crystal warship has been greatly modified. It was added to the battlefield as a medical starship. Its mission is to heal the Immortal Cultivators who have been through too much fighting. If any important persons are heavily wounded, they will be able to board the starship and return to Spider Den quickly.
"Therefore, the speed of the starship is very high.
"Also, in case it is harassed by the Cultivators, its space jump system is always activated. If it is surrounded by the enemy, it will be able to jump out immediately.
"The medical starship has been missing for two and a half hours. At first, we thought that it had been blown up by the Cultivators. But after cleaning the battlefield, we did not find any debris that belonged to it. Also, according to the scans of the other crystal warships, the starship was not attacked fiercely by the enemy. There is no possibility that it has completely disintegrated.
