The Thousand-Tentacle Worm was slowly wriggling underground, but before it could get out of its predicament, it was discovered by the giant mechanical eagle hovering high in the sky.
The giant mechanical eagle was so huge that it almost covered half of the sky when it spread its wings. It kept hovering and screaming, and the sharp cry pierced Fei Yujing's eardrums.
She looked up and was shocked by the scene of mechanical creatures that filled the sky above her head.
No wonder the four of them didn't dare to break into the black hexahedron suspended in the air. With so many mechanical creatures that hunted prey species as tributes, even if the four of them doubled their strength, they wouldn't be able to resist.
"Wait a little longer. If we go out now, we'll die." He Yi pressed down on the restless Yakumo Ruler. The closer they got to the target, the calmer he became. Yakumo Ruler didn't notice that he was being suppressed by He Yi with one hand.
Bai Haiting crawled on the side silently, but the expression he looked at He Yi with became more serious.
The giant mechanical eagle swooped down and rushed to the ground. Its sharp claws stabbed into the ground. With a shrill cry, the Thousand-Tentacle Worm's body was pulled out from the ground.
"If we don't do anything, they'll go up to the sky." Yakumo Ruler said coldly. He didn't want to watch these mechanical creatures fly into the black hexahedron building with tributes.
Speaking of which, this building was suspended in the air. It wasn't impossible to enter with the help of some external forces. Why did He Yi have to wait for these mechanical creatures to arrive? He Yi was a little reckless, but after calming down, he could think carefully. There must be some inside information that they didn't know. Otherwise, He Yi would have left them behind and entered.
"Going up to the sky isn't the key. What we need to wait for is the guard." He Yi explained impatiently. "Only the guard has the key to enter. Otherwise, even if you can reach the door, you can't enter."
This kid is hiding something from us. Yakumo Ruler pushed He Yi out of the group of allies in his heart, but he said, "Then when can we make a move? The giant eagle is about to take off."
The Giant Eagle that caught the Thousand-Legged Worm soared into the air. It flapped its wings, and a violent hurricane rolled up on the ground. Its two sharp claws pierced into the Thousand-Legged Worm's body, subduing this arrogant hunting species.
"So that's how it is. The guard is actually hiding there." He Yi was also anxious in his heart. He was able to obtain so much information that no one else had, and it was because the He family had paid a huge price to obtain it. This time, his goal was very big, and it was related to the future of himself and the He family. He could not afford to lose it.
Looking at the dark sky, he finally found the mechanical guard hidden among the mechanical creatures. It was a little dwarf.
"The key is in the dwarf's hands!" He Yi was the first to leap up after shouting. They didn't have the ability to fly, but their jumping ability was outstanding. After an instant burst, they relied on their own methods to sprint into the air.
The four of them had the same goal, and the dwarf clearly noticed that he was being watched. He quickly clapped his hands, and a group of ferocious mechanical creatures quickly gathered around. They were all made to copy the giant flying creatures, and their combat power was astonishing.
Fei Yujing knew that it was impossible to hide anything at this time. With a flip of her hand, a moon-white ice sword appeared out of thin air.
"An Origin Substance cold weapon that can freely expand and shrink!" Not far away, Yakumo Ruler held an exquisite Origin Substance spear in each hand, but his eyes were firmly attracted to the ice sword.
His family was in the business of selling weapons and equipment, so he had more knowledge in this area than many people. He was very familiar with that ice sword. It was called Frost, and it was the sword of the old ancestor of the sixteenth branch family, the old monster who was still the head of the branch family!
"The sixteenth ancestor actually gave the Frost Sword to her. Yunfei really picked up a treasure this time." Bai Haiting was extremely shocked. This sword was the sixteenth ancestor's favorite weapon when he was still a magic user. If he had lent it to Fei Yujing, then it would have been fine, but if he had given it to her, then the meaning behind it was very clear!
With the support of the core in her body, she could easily control the magic particles. The Frost Sword in her hand was fierce, and her aura increased explosively. She alone blocked three mechanical creatures.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Three gunshots rang out. Yakumo Ruler blasted away the mechanical creatures blocking his way. On his back was a pair of mechanical wings, which was a mechanical device that the Yakumo family had recently purchased. These mechanical wings consumed Origin Substance and could allow the user to fly for a long time in the air. Although the speed and direction control wasn't very good, it allowed non-magic users like them to fly in the air without any obstacles.
Otherwise, if they had to fight in the air for a long time, they would have to rely on the military's steam-powered devices. However, those devices were very difficult to control, and it was very difficult to get used to them without special training. Naturally, he wouldn't deliberately study for this.
Fei Yujing swung the Frost Sword in her hand, and a stream of ice rushed to the ground. In an instant, it condensed into an incomparably sturdy ice pillar, supporting her falling body.
She stood tall on top of the ice pillar, like an otherworldly fairy, floating in the air like an immortal.
"He even told her how to control it. The sixteenth ancestor really intends to nurture her as his successor." On the other side, Bai Haiting, who was locked in battle with the mechanical creatures, was even more shocked. From the beginning until now, Fei Yujing had never revealed her strength, but when she erupted, she was so fierce. If he let his guard down because of her gentleness and beauty, if such a woman was an enemy, he would definitely suffer a great loss.
He remembered that the sixteenth branch family also had a cousin who was ranked in the top 100 of the family's successor list. In the past few years, the branch family had been lacking in young people, but now there seemed to be signs of prosperity, especially Bai Mumu and Bai Wuxin, who were a few years younger than them, were extremely famous. Why would the sixteenth ancestor choose an outsider?
This was not a small matter.
In the Bai family, there was no external family like the Dong Ling family. As long as an outsider was outstanding enough, they could enter the branch family. If the White King bestowed the surname, they would have a chance of entering the family's genealogy in the future, receiving incense offerings from future generations.
However, in all these years, the position of the branch family's patriarch had never been occupied by an outsider. It was not that it was not given, but the Bai family's bloodline was too powerful. As a member of the younger generation with the Bai family's mark, the closer their bloodline was to the current White King, the more potential they had. In addition to the family's inheritance of magic, it was basically impossible for them to be suppressed by an outsider of the same age.
In all these years, there were only a handful of outsiders who could become a member of the branch family with real power, not to mention being nurtured as a successor by the patriarch at such a young age.
What did it mean to be the patriarch of the Bai family's branch family? It was an existence whose strength and power could match that of a top family's patriarch!
At the level of players, they were a group of people who were famous. In this world, they were one of the people with the highest authority in the Seven Continents.
Even someone as powerful as Baimiya had not been nurtured as a successor by the fourth branch family's patriarch. In their generation, other than the freaks ranked in the top five, only Bai Xintong had received such treatment.
In the sky, the sudden appearance of Baimiya stunned the four of them. Her signature laughter resounded through the sky as her body stabbed into the mechanical creatures like a sharp sword.
The heavy sword that she brandished made Eight Cloud Ruler, who had a similarly violent combat style, tremble in fear. She was simply a super violent woman. With a single strike, some of the weaker mechanical creatures were reduced to a pile of scrap parts.
Realizing that these mechanical creatures also had points, her attacks became even more frenzied.
"Hehe, I knew that by waiting here, there would be someone who would have a way to open this darn door." Baimiya could not stop laughing. The clothes on her chest were almost completely torn apart, revealing a hideous scar. It was so deep that her bones could be seen. Although the wound had already begun to heal, it was still a ghastly sight.
This was an injury she had suffered the first time she attempted to barge through the black hexahedron door. If her reaction had been slightly slower, her entire chest would have probably been torn apart.
If an ordinary person were to suffer such an injury, they would probably hide far away to recover. Only she would casually jump out to do battle.
With Baimiya's help, the pressure on the quartet immediately lessened.
"Help me block them for a while. I'll get the key!" He Yi took a step forward. He was extremely fast, and as he spoke, he passed by the group and charged straight for the dwarf who was huddled in a pile of mechanical creatures.
The others spat, but they had no choice but to support He Yi and block the mechanical creatures that were charging over.
This fellow sure was shameless, throwing the most dangerous job to them.
He Yi looked down on everything as he quickly arrived in front of the dwarf.
Looking at the mechanical creature in front of him, he felt like he was facing a real creature.
As expected of a mechanical creature created by the number one Machinery Master. It was very close to a real person in all aspects.
The dwarf looked at him and trembled. He offered up the key with both hands, as if begging for mercy.
He Yi laughed nastily and grabbed the string of golden keys. Then, without looking back, he reached out and crushed the dwarf's head!
The mechanical parts that splattered everywhere and the screams made Fei Yujing frown.
With such a vicious and insidious method, this fellow was definitely not a good choice as an ally.
After turning the little dwarf's body into ashes, He Yi smiled in satisfaction. This damned little thing had caused him to expend a lot of resources outside. It was just a mechanical creature. Damn it!
Just as he was about to turn around and head toward the black hexahedron, the hair on his back suddenly stood up. A pair of cold and indifferent eyes seemed to be staring at him.
This feeling was like suddenly falling into an ice cave on a hot summer day. It was as if the Grim Reaper had locked onto him. It was extremely uncomfortable.
He Yi turned around and saw the giant mechanical eagle that had caught the Thousand-Tentacle Worm flying toward him. The chilling gaze came from the woman on the giant eagle's back.
He did not know how to describe it. The woman in the violet dress was definitely a mechanical creature, but compared to the dwarf, she was more like a human.
Her demeanor, expression, and actions were just like a living person's.
If Li Xiang were here at this moment, he would definitely recognize her identity — the Queen of Pain.
The Queen of Pain looked at He Yi, then looked at the dwarf that had been smashed into pieces. She suddenly stretched out her hand and opened her palm.
Are you asking me for the key?
"As if I'd give it to you!" He Yi sneered.
