148: Let's start a group buy!

Chu Yuan wanted to leave, but the anomalies did not want to let him go.

However, that Seventh Realm Mental Energy attack from earlier had been too ruthless, leaving the group of anomalies somewhat weakened. They knew they couldn't stop Chu Yuan, who was determined to leave... But that didn't matter; didn't this Human Race member still have companions?

Jiang Fei was carrying Miao Xiuxiu on his back and fell silent the moment he saw Chu Yuan.

He had never heard that the Soldier Soul Profound Realm had the property of time acceleration, had he? Hadn't it only been a month since he last saw Chu Yuan?

How could he... how could he be stronger than himself already?

Although he didn't know Chu Yuan's specific Realm now, the fact that he was unscathed while surrounded by Sixth Realm anomalies already spoke volumes...

"You, back away."

"Ah? Oh, oh..." Jiang Fei very obediently carried Miao Xiuxiu and descended downwards.

He couldn't get involved in a battle of this level. He might have been able to barely put up a fight against a Fifth Realm anomaly, but a Sixth Realm one... he would likely be possessed and controlled by the anomaly the moment they made contact!

Yuan Yang's expression was solemn as he drew his bow like a full moon.

The longbow emitted an unbearable creaking sound, as if it were about to snap at any moment!

Then, he released his grip, and countless rays of radiance erupted from the bowstring!

Streaks of golden thread pierced forward, and the sky suddenly lit up...

The few anomalies that had come to intercept them seemed to sense the threat as well. Bursts of Mental Energy erupted, slightly distorting the air as they tried their best to deflect those golden threads filled with a destructive aura.

Li Qi's figure was like a ghost, flickering across the scene.

In an instant, he moved behind an anomaly and raised his dagger to strike!

The opponent seemed to have sensed the dangerous aura from behind, but it was already too late to block.

Li Qi's dagger pierced into the anomaly's body, feeling only a faint layer of resistance before the dagger vibrated and energy erupted!

The anomaly's form was instantly shattered. Although it reassembled in the distance, it had become somewhat more illusory...

Wang Ying rushed towards Chu Yuan regardless of the danger, tacitly caught the Materials Chu Yuan threw over, and then moved away following the ink shadow.

Looking from afar, one could see a black line speeding around Withered Eye City, laying out circuits of energy.

And the figure of a Human Race woman followed closely behind, though it was unclear what she was doing...

Some people in Withered Eye City felt something was wrong, but since flying was prohibited within the city, no one came to investigate.

Even the creatures near the city gate just took a glance at the gate, and after seeing the situation here, they shrank back.

A Sixth Realm battle... It was the first time they had ever seen the anomalies in Withered Eye City mobilize in such an organized manner...

Although the Soldier Soul Profound Realm was controlled by anomalies, there were not many high-level anomalies like those in Withered Eye City.

Because low-level anomalies lacked intelligence, only anomalies at the Fifth Realm or above would be 'recruited,' so their numbers were naturally limited.

The so-called natives were actually other alien races.

There were even Human Race and Nightmare Insect Clan members... They could not survive in the outside world, either being hunted or having committed grave mistakes, so they fled to the Soldier Soul Profound Realm to seek refuge.

The price was to regularly offer Mental Energy, and even, before death, voluntarily let the anomalies devour their Soul!

This was also why there was a rule prohibiting harm to the natives... because these natives were the crops planted by the anomalies...

Chu Yuan was multitasking, maintaining the Glazed Void Domain while controlling the ink shadow to carve array patterns.

Although it wasn't easy, it was still better than before.

Senior Brother's Mental Energy attack was quite effective; not only did it kill several anomalies on the spot, but the others affected were also severely injured, and their attack intensity had clearly decreased.

Whether an anomaly was injured was very intuitively reflected.

The more illusory their form, the more severe the injury!

He gradually relaxed; it was nothing else, but because at the edge of his Divine Sense detection, several figures were flying over rapidly...

...

Yuan Yang's bow was almost snapped, but he dared not slack off.

Things like anomalies were very troublesome once they got close... especially once possessed, it could basically be judged as hopeless.

Li Qi dared to do this because he was faster, and he didn't have any powerful long-range attack methods.

But in fact, Li Qi had fallen into danger more than once, only every time a crisis arose, a seven-colored glimmer would flash by. It wasn't strong, but it was enough to help him resolve the crisis...

This couldn't go on... Yuan Yang's consciousness was somewhat dizzy.

An illusory mountain peak hovered high above his head, as if it could suck a person's thoughts inside...

This was also an anomaly.

He couldn't figure out why an anomaly would grow into a mountain, but it had appeared.

Yuan Yang mobilized his energy and actively struck a spot within his body.

A sharp pain came, causing his consciousness to temporarily clear up a bit.

Immediately, he drew his bow and shot an arrow toward the top of his head...

Almost simultaneously, a long spear shot over and also collided with that mountain!

A loud explosion followed; the mountain peak shattered, only to reassemble in the distance...

"Yo, you connected guy, you have times when you're this pathetic?" The words were laced with thorns. A burly man stepped through the air, beckoned downwards, and the long spear returned to his hand.

"Screw you!" Yuan Yang's mind eased, and he cursed without hesitation.

This was another team from the Ninth Legion.

Before entering the city, he had sent messages to the other three teams...

Acting separately was just to make finding people easier and less conspicuous.

But since they had found the person, the goal had become how to get them out, so it didn't matter whether they were separated or not.

"Tch~" The burly man habitually retorted to Yuan Yang, and only then did he see the situation on the field clearly, immediately falling silent...

Weren't they being hunted by alien races? Where were the alien races?

Why were they all anomalies?

And damn it, they were all Sixth Realm ones!?

"Hee~" A soft giggle sounded in his ear, and he subconsciously felt something was wrong.

Just as he wanted to make a move, a cold feeling suddenly enveloped his entire body!

It was as if a pair of cold little hands pressed against his temples... holding an ice pick and drilling into his mind!

Fortunately, a seven-colored glimmer exploded in front of him!

The burly man heard only a faint scream, and the feeling of stiffness and coldness throughout his body instantly disappeared!

He turned around without hesitation and swept his spear, the shaft burning with flames, cutting a small-statured anomaly behind him in half...

"Xu Feiran! Are you trash!?" Yuan Yang cursed angrily.

Xu Feiran was silent. He also carried a Soul-Vibrating Bell on him, so he wouldn't be possessed by an anomaly so easily... but he had indeed been careless.

His expression became solemn, and he looked deeply at Chu Yuan, who was surrounded by several anomalies and was pale-faced.

"Many thanks!"

Chu Yuan nodded slightly and swallowed another handful of spirit nurturing pills.

Xu Feiran took a deep breath, stepped out, and the tip of his spear blazed with flames...
