Enemies
Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and the Hongya Squad set off again.
During these three months, all seven members of the team used the abundant resources they had acquired to further solidify their cultivation, especially their understanding of the Principle. With the help of the power of the universe's origin, they all improved significantly. As the team leader, Hong Ya's aura was as deep and terrifying as an abyss. Yang Tianyou suspected that if Hong Ya were to undergo Tribulation Transcendence at this time, he would have at least a 60% chance of Tribulation Transcendence.
The reason he was able to improve so much was because Hong Ya spent a great deal to exchange for the last Origin Fruit. After consuming two Origin Fruits, it would be strange if his understanding of the Principle didn't increase rapidly.
What Yang Tianyou could see, his teammates naturally couldn't help but see as well.
Unable to contain his curiosity, Jie Yuan asked first, "Captain, are you about to break through in your cultivation level?"
"I'm still a little short. My understanding of the Principle is sufficient, but there's one Divine Ability I haven't mastered yet. I need to refine it further." Hong Ya replied with a faint smile. It was clear that he was in a very good mood, after all, after Tribulation Transcendence, he would Ascension to Immortality.
It's worth mentioning that one can also Tribulation Transcendence in the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, where the Three Calamity Platform is specially set up.
The cultivation system in the Three Realms is closely linked to tribulations; tribulations are not only hardships but also fortuitous opportunities.
A few days later, the spaceship arrived at a certain area on the edge of Hidden Star Lake. After Hong Ya sent out a signal, a Flying Boat with a distinctly Spirit Tribe style appeared in the distance. It was the five Yan Ju brothers.
The two sides agreed to form an alliance and signed a contract, thus forming a defensive alliance.
As the Flying Boat approached, a projection appeared in the pavilion. Yan Ju smiled and said, "Daoist Friends Hong Ya, how about we be 30,000 li apart? This distance won't interfere with each other, and we can still provide assistance at crucial moments."
"Okay!" Hong Ya nodded slightly. This distance was the usual practice for elite team alliances, and it had been tested over countless years with the blood of many cultivators. Naturally, he had no objections.
And so, the two elite squads, each 30,000 miles apart, slowly advanced in the same direction, searching for prey, or perhaps becoming prey themselves.
Time flows slowly by, and ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Over the past decade, the two teams have worked together seamlessly, supporting each other and always appearing in time when the other is in danger. The friendship forged from fighting side by side is the deepest, and the relationship between the members of the two teams has become increasingly close.
A peculiar Flying Boat, entirely purplish-black in color and covered in tentacles, was flying through the gravel belt, occasionally dodging some minor troubles.
This is a special creature bred by the Devil Race. It possesses extremely high Wisdom, an internal space, and a certain degree of attack and defense capabilities. Only a powerful squadron within the Devil Race can equip itself with this kind of Biological Flying Boat.
Inside the Flying Boat, a terrifying creature, about three zhang tall, covered in black scales, with its head taking up almost half of its upper body and protruding fangs, was chatting and laughing. They were the Obscuring Light Devil Race, a high-ranking race among Devil Race. Adult members of the clan could reach the Body Integration level, making them incredibly powerful.
This Obscuring Light Devil Race Clan has nine members in total, but four of them exude the aura of Tribulation Transcendence. The auras of the other five are also far stronger than those of cultivators in the Three Realms have reached the Great Perfection of the Body Integration. Undoubtedly, this is a formidable and terrifying enemy.
"Boss, Nilu has found new prey!" a member of the Obscuring Light Devil Race said excitedly. Nilu, whom he was referring to, was this Flying Boat. Because it possessed considerable Wisdom, there should actually be ten members in this Obscuring Light Devil Race Clan team, with Nilu being the last one.
"Oh? Get closer and kill them all!!" Captain Ta Yi grinned menacingly, and the other Obscuring Light Devil Race also revealed bloodthirsty and greedy eyes.
Only half a cup of tea's time had passed when the Obscuring Light Devil Race excitedly announced again, "We've reached attack range!"
"Then kill them!!"
As he spoke, Ta Yi flew directly out of the Flying Boat. A layer of dense and complex Spirit Mark quickly appeared on the surface of his body. He opened his mouth wide, and a terrifying devouring power formed a black hole that stretched across the Firmament, forcing the Hongya Squad's Flying Boat, which was hidden in the dark, to come out.
Click! Click!
The Flying Boat gradually disintegrated and collapsed amidst a teeth-grinding roar.
Only that elegant little building remains intact.
"Huh, it's that group of insects from the Three Realms again." Ta Yi chuckled coldly. "I still vividly remember the smell of that Human Race from last time."
"Haha, this team is unlucky to have run into us again."
Meanwhile, the Hongya Squad reacted instantly to the attack and quickly took out their respective Spirit Treasures.
"Not good, the enemy's detection methods are more advanced than ours, everyone be careful." Hong Ya said with a solemn expression. Since making a fortune ten years ago, Hongya Squad has changed their Detection Spirit Treasure, which is much more powerful. For the past ten years, they have always had the advantage in this aspect, being the first to discover their prey and launch a surprise attack. But this time, the roles have been reversed.
The seven people disembarked from the Flying Boat almost simultaneously and immediately notified the Yan Ju Squad, which was 30,000 miles away. The latter was rushing over as quickly as possible after receiving the message.
"It's them!" At this moment, Jie Yuan, who had just left the attic, immediately spotted the enemy opposite him. He was startled at first, and then his eyes filled with overwhelming hatred.
Not only him, but also Red Hawk, Kumao, Long Kuang, Duo Ling, and even the composed Hong Ya, all began to stir with agitation, their Law Power becoming abnormally violent. Yang Tianyou's eyes flickered slightly, but before he could ask about the specific situation, Jie Yuan transmitted a message to him. "Great White, be careful. These despicable Devil Race are the same Devil Race that killed Chi Heng. Their devouring power is incredibly terrifying; it can even restrict space. Be extremely careful not to get swallowed by these guys."
"Understood!" Yang Tianyou nodded slightly with a serious expression. At this moment, he understood why Jie Yuan and the others had reacted so strongly. It turned out that their former best friend had been killed by these Devil Race. No wonder.
"Kill!"
Ta Yi led his people to attack.
Hong Ya transformed into a hundred-foot-tall orc and charged towards the leading Obscuring Light Devil Race. Yang Tianyou and the others, with the support of Red Hawk's Formation, were responsible for protecting Hong Ya's flanks. This was a typical defensive formation. Although they were filled with hatred, Hong Ya and the others were not blinded by anger. They knew that a direct confrontation would definitely result in heavy losses. The best course of action was to stall for time and wait for Yan Ju Squad to come to their rescue.
Boom!!
The two collided like Falling Star hitting each other, creating ripples of energy like a raging tide.
