"Hehe, we'll see it soon, no rush. I'm really looking forward to it. Many people have contacted us privately, wanting Chen Yongjie's extraordinary flesh and blood for research. This time we can sell it for a high price!"

The middle-aged man, Zheng Hui, smiled calmly, as if he was just waiting for Old Chen to arrive so that a grand feast could begin.

Although it is just a robot, it looks very much like a real person and is a "copy" of Zheng Hui. His real self is controlling and manipulating everything through the surveillance footage.

Wang Xuan asked, "You kidnapped me just to lure Old Chen over? Do you think I, a grandmaster, have so little prestige?"

"Unfortunately, a Grandmaster is no match for you. Killing you on this land of New Star wouldn't be difficult. Today, you're just an extra; the main course is Chen Yongjie." Zheng Hui shrugged.

Wang Xuan was assessing what price each side would have to pay if technological weapons were as dense as a steel jungle to encircle and annihilate superhumans.

"Let's go. We'll go ahead and greet Chen Yongjie as he arrives." Zheng Hui instructed the small group of people still remaining at the underground base to evacuate immediately.

Then, he had four advanced robots transform into a flying machine, locking Wang Xuan inside. He himself then entered and sat in the control position.

"We're waiting outside to watch a spectacular fireworks display and witness the death throes of the superhumans. We can't wait!" He left Wang Xuan's phone at the base.

Then, they left the underground and went outside. The aircraft, composed of advanced robots, landed on a hilltop and looked out over the base.

An hour later, a silver spaceship arrived, carrying Old Chen, and appeared in the sky above the mountains and forests.

Old Chen has very strong connections; he even managed to mobilize a spaceship!

There was an old man accompanying him, mainly because Chen Yongjie was afraid of dying. Without an important member of the conglomerate accompanying him, he dared not travel across the sky in a spaceship.

While still quite high off the ground, Old Chen jumped down.

"Old Chen, this base is empty. They'll probably wait until you go in before unleashing a massive, saturation attack using advanced weaponry." Wang Xuan's spirit left his body, his movements turbulent, as he transmitted his voice to Old Chen within the mountains.

"Why didn't you just handle it yourself? Why did you have to lure me into this mess?" Old Chen complained.

"I am a Grandmaster, not suited for combat. You are an extraordinary individual who also loves fishing. Everything is developing in the direction you hoped for. I have a feeling that today there will be a big net and even bigger fish. Just wait for the harvest!"

Wang Xuan told me that he had been capturing the mental state of those people here and had learned about another important base of the Gray Blood organization hundreds of miles away, which he would then wipe out completely.

Old Chen contacted the Silver Spaceship in the distance, asking them to help shield this mountain forest and interfere with communication with the outside world, as he didn't want the extraordinary battle to be seen.

Old Chen dodged and rushed into the underground base.

But the next moment, he left silently, his body radiating X substance, using extraordinary energy to isolate himself, disappearing into the depths of the mountains and forests.

"Strong pulse interference? They won't let us watch anymore, what a pity." Zheng Hui said regretfully as everything on the screen disappeared.

He waited a moment, then whispered, "That's about enough, detonate!"

Boom!

In the distance, a massive Energy Beam struck the forest, detonating the underground base and causing widespread destruction.

It wasn't a huge explosion underground anymore; it was more like a magma eruption, with all sorts of energy bombs exploding.

"Some professionals have analyzed that superhumans are terrifying, and there's a high probability that some flesh and blood can be left behind. It's a pity that we can't put his entire body on the experimental table; what a waste," Zheng Hui regretfully.

He stared at the base, where smoke billowed and mountains crumbled, and said, "Clean up the battlefield, collect superhuman flesh and blood, and finish off any survivors!"

Beside him, three silver-white robots left three afterimages, made sonic booms, and swooped down from the mountain.

Wang Xuan was moved. The power system of this advanced robot was indeed very strong. Killing Great Grandmaster would be no problem. He flew across the air!

Old Chen was disheveled, his clothes were tattered, and he was covered in blood—he had gotten it himself, smeared with animal blood—as he ran out.

He spotted three advanced robots swooping down from the mountaintop and flying over. He quickly dodged their shots; if those Energy Beam were to hit him, he certainly wouldn't be able to withstand it.

The beam can shoot down small spaceships!

However, after he formed his mental domain, he could sense danger and dodge it in advance, avoiding it all.

The superhumans moved through the mountains and forests like ghosts, seemingly defying the physical rules that humans should follow; their power and speed were beyond reason.

"Sizzle!"

A robot, six meters tall and wielding a five-meter-long alloy sword, leaped down from mid-air and cleaved Old Chen in two.

This one cut could slice through a small mountain; it's something no human could withstand!

Old Chen avoided it.

Sizzle!

Two more blades flashed, each sweeping across to cut off all of Old Chen's escape routes, attempting to kill him.

Zheng Hui said, "See that? This is technological civilization. Advanced robots have reaction speeds far exceeding those of humans, and the difference in strength is even greater, not even in the same league. Even a superhuman would explode if hit by a single slash!"

Wang Xuan ignored him because he knew the battle was over. Old Chen wasn't someone who had just stepped into the Supernatural Domain; he was a monster capable of killing a herb-gathering expert!

At his level, he was able to control objects with unparalleled mental power and could perform Sword Control Technique!

Snap!

Strange sounds emanated from inside the three advanced robots, with sparks of energy flying everywhere. Old Chen, through mental manipulation, tore apart the intricate internal components.

"How is this possible?!" Zheng Hui exclaimed in surprise.

Wang Xuan didn't want to listen to his rambling anymore. He expanded his mental power, severing the internal components of the robot and silently destroying the silver-white advanced robot beside him.

At this point, all the expensive advanced robots, each costing hundreds of millions, were paralyzed.

Strictly speaking, these robots, in terms of sheer attack power, can indeed destroy the physical bodies of superhumans, but their internal sophisticated components are also fragile; a single sweep by a mind-controlled object can easily annihilate them.

Even those at the Supernatural Practitioner the Mist and the Burning Lamp would likely be unable to defeat this kind of robot.

"Old Qian, are you sure no one will come over in a warship and bomb me from a distance?" Old Chen contacted the old man in the distant Silver Spaceship.

The old man in the spaceship chuckled and said, "Don't worry, New Star has its own Rules. It can't just use warships to open fire on its own territory unless there's a special situation that threatens its homeland. Otherwise, if such Great Killer Weapon is used in the event of a conflict, wouldn't the mountains and rivers be destroyed?"

But Old Chen still didn't relax, raising his mental state to the limit, in case he was hit by a warship in the distance, he would have nowhere to complain.

Suddenly, Old Chen felt a chill run down his spine, and goosebumps rose all over his body.

He fled at top speed, but soon discovered that he was not being locked onto by a warship.

The threat was in the mountains and forests, surrounding him with countless tiny particles, so dense they were hard to see with the naked eye.

His spiritual realm discerns what it is.

A single Micro Mechs is nothing, but if a large number of them enter the body with each breath, they are enough to destroy the internal organs and turn the brain into mush.

For a grandmaster, this is Great Killer Weapon; a moment of carelessness could lead to an attack and death!

Old Chen, his expression grim, hid in the dense forest, activating his mental domain to sweep across the surroundings. He felt that if those Micro Mechs gathered together, they would almost form a cloud of mist.

They are scattered and sparse, constantly and quietly moving in, silently trying to penetrate his body; those without spiritual power cannot defend against them.

Rustle!

It was as if dust rained down around him, and a large number of Micro Mechs fell to the ground.

It took Old Chen a long time to clear away those barely visible threats. His face was grim; the New Star's advanced technology was something to be wary of.

Boom!

Three advanced robots with their internal components torn apart suddenly exploded, burying the entire forest.

Old Chen screamed in agony, his clothes charred black. He fled the mountains, where the forest had been engulfed by fire and turned into lava fields.

Wang Xuan was certain that Old Chen was still faking it; he could have avoided that kind of massive explosion in advance.

If there were any danger, as a protector, Wang Xuan would naturally have rushed over long ago.

He finally moved and called out, "Old Chen, are you alright?"

"I'm seriously injured!" Old Chen used a secret technique to force some blood out of his pores, turning his body crimson.

He truly felt the benefits of keeping his strength hidden. He was now doing all sorts of dirty and tiring work, while Wang Xuan sat on the mountaintop watching him fight.

He also wanted to preserve his strength so that the conglomerates and major organizations would underestimate him.

"Old Chen, how are you?" Old Qian communicated with him from the Silver Spaceship in the distance.

"I'm injured, but I won't die, don't worry," Old Chen replied.

"He's covered in blood and staggering; he's definitely badly injured. It's our turn to finish him off!" someone said from a distant hilltop.

Then, the person disappeared silently into the mountains and forests.

Behind him, a woman in Black Cloak vanished like a ghost.

Wang Xuan had already sensed hostility coming from the distant mountains and forests. He was truly shocked. Were there really other extraordinary individuals on the New Star? Most likely, it was people from the New Arts Domain who had come to kill Old Chen and sever the roots of the Old Arts!

Although he and Old Chen had long suspected that Olesha might not be the only Supernatural Practitioner in the New Arts Domain, the fact that it was actually confirmed still weighed heavily on his mind.

What's in the birthplace of the New Arts? Has the most powerful figure appeared?

After discovering the extraordinary individuals, Wang Xuan arrived!

"Chen Yongjie, you killed Olesha in the Old Earth, didn't you? You even insulted him and made it seem like he was 'killed in a plane crash.' Today, you won't live anymore!"

A man spoke in a cold, menacing tone. He had short brown hair, a muscular build, and appeared to be in his early fifties; his true age was unknown.

The other woman had long black hair and slightly blue eyes. She exuded extraordinary power and was indeed very strong.

In their view, Chen Yongjie was a dying Great Grandmaster just a month ago. His feigned death and stepping into the Supernatural Domain was nothing more than reaching the edge of the Mystery Realm.

So, when the two of them arrived, they first asked the Gray Blood organization to take action, while the two lay in wait in the shadows, ready to strike at the crucial moment.

One of them was at the Burning Lamp level, and the other at the Mist level; their eyes were cold as they approached Old Chen.

"Hmm?" Soon, they realized something was wrong.

Chen Yongjie's body emitted golden light, like a Buddha walking towards them, Shine Upon holy light and bringing with it a power as vast as the ocean, locking onto them.

The two were shocked. How could there be such a person? In just one month, he had surpassed Ran Deng.

The man and woman arrived full of confidence, as if they were invincible, but now they suddenly leaped up in opposite directions like two rabbits, preparing for a great escape.

Boom!

Old Chen slapped out, directly blocking one person. His Sixteen-Foot Golden Body shone brightly, engulfing the person with light, blasting him apart with a bang, and burning him to ashes with flames.

The other woman was cleaved in two by a flying sword with a soft "poof," and was killed by Wang Xuan.

Although extraordinary blood is precious, Wang Xuan did not want to collect it to avoid causing trouble. He unleashed a burst of light from his palm, which also burned the corpse to ashes.

"Let's go, let's start with the Gray Blood organization!" Wang Xuan said.

Since the other party wanted to hunt down superhumans and cause a big commotion, he was willing to grant their wish. There was a real base of the organization hundreds of miles away, where important members and equipment were located.

"Old Qian, you go first. I'll take Little Wang to gain some experience, so we won't be taking the spaceship back." Old Chen contacted the old man in the Silver Spaceship.

Then, he and Wang Xuan disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

On that day, they arrived at the Gray Blood organization's true core base on the Cloud Mist Plateau, where not only Zheng Hui but also other important figures were present.

This is their "god-level" laboratory!
