Chapter 1699: Sky Pursuit

Buzz…
There was a flash of light, and Chen Xiaobei, Ao Liancheng and the Tenshou warriors were sent to the next portal terminal.
The terminal was enormous with a total of eighteen platforms.
Hidden in each of the platforms was a portal, connecting to eighteen different places.
“Let’s go!” Ao Liancheng hauled Chen Xiaobie out, skittish.
The Tenshou warriors remained where they were because the portals in private portal terminals were small to medium-sized. So, it would take a couple of trips for all the Tenshou warriors to get here.
Chen Xiaobei and Ao Liancheng had not gone far before all eighteen of the platforms lit up.
In a blink of an eye, all the platforms were crowded with people.
Among them, about half were Tenshou warriors, and the other half were soldiers in green armor.
Combined, there were more than 300 men!
“Tenshou warriors! Royal Dome soldiers!” Ao Liancheng looked horrified. “It looks like the enemies know about the second task! They’ve come here to sabotage us!”
“You’re right….” Chen Xiaobei said. “There were already hundreds of them coming from the private portal back in Black Tortoise’s capital city! There are eighteen portals here that connect to different terminals. That means there are going to be tens of thousands of them!”
“These are just the front-line troops, we can’t estimate how many more people will be coming…” Ao Lianchang said nervously. “Forget about this. Let’s get to the mountain as quickly as possible! We cannot get into conflict with them…”
“Why are you afraid of this bunch of garbage?” Chen Xiaobei was baffled.
He saw using his Netherspirit Battlescouter that while there were many of them, their cultivations were only at Celestial Cultivation. Only a few of them were at Ethereal Cultivation.
If a fight broke out, Chen Xiaobei had nothing to be afraid of.
“Don’t underestimate these minions!” Ao Liancheng’s face crumpled in distress. “Both Tenshou and Royal Dome have Earth-G.o.d grade combat formation! These minions may seem like insects, but with enough of them joining forces and with the aid of the combat formation, these insects can launch a counterattack on me!”
“I…” Chen Xiaobei recalled the battle in Overgrown Forest. It was with a specific combat formation that the humans were able to take on the body of powerful Demonic Beasts.
Due to Tenshou and Royal Dome having an Earth-G.o.d combat formation, they would have no problem at all counterattacking Ao Liancheng’s 600,000 combat power even if these thousands of soldiers did not have Earth-G.o.d strength!
Ao Liancheng continued, “More importantly, there’s no way they are only sending these minions here! If we get entangled here, a G.o.d-Ascension elite might appear! We would have nowhere to run then!”
“Alright… Let’s hurry then…” Chen Xiaobei nodded in approval.
Tenshou may be abominable, but right now, his main goal was to complete the task. He could not afford to waste his time and energy here.
“Both of you! Stay where you are!” A Tenshou warrior marched towards them. “Why are you sneaking around? Probably up to no good?! Take off your hats and show me your face!”
“This is going to be a problem…” Ao Liancheng was tense.
“That s.p.a.cecraft! Hurry!” Chen Xiaobei said under his breath.
“Both of you! Take off your hats or die!” The Tenshou warrior reached for the katana on his waist, ready to kill.
“Hey, j.a.panese devil, why are you so overweening?” Chen Xiaobei hissed, launching a fist.
His knuckles burst forth 200,000 combat power.
The Tenshou warrior was only at Celestial Cultivation. With his combat power, which was less than 100,000, he could not dodge nor block the punch!
Bam!
There was loud, dull noise, and the Tenshou warrior’s head exploded. His headless body fell to the ground surrounded by blood and brains.
As he was going to kill Chen Xiaobei and Ao Liancheng, Chen Xiaobei would not go easy on him!
He waved his palm and absorbed the guy’s blood essence and spirit.
To rub it in, he was not going to give him the chance for reincarnation.
“Let’s go!” Ao Liancheng was quick to react. He already had the s.p.a.cecraft taken out when he grabbed Chen Xiaobei by the sleeve and swiftly swooped into the skies.
“Baka*! What the h.e.l.l just happened? I want everyone to give chase!” The leader of the warriors shouted angrily.
The hundreds of Tenshou warriors whipped out ten s.p.a.cecraft and went on the chase.
The Royal Dome soldiers made no move to go after their allies. Instead, they a.s.sembled in an orderly fas.h.i.+on.
“c.r.a.p! The enemy is behind us!” Ao Liancheng shrieked. “Tenshou is really good at warring. They have the most advanced weapons and equipment in the nine zones! They’ll catch up with us soon!”
Chen Xiaobei instructed, “Fly low! Head for the mountains!”
Soon, the enemies and they had all entered the range of one-hundred-thousand mountains.
The term ‘one-hundred-thousand mountains’ was not the name of a single mountain but the 100,000 cl.u.s.ters of giant mountains.
The mountains were continuous, the entire range borderless like an ocean of green, gargantuan forests. Vast and immeasurable.
“If we fly low, I’ll have to dodge the mountains, rocks and the giant trees! We’ll be slowed down!” Ao Liancheng said doubtfully.
“We will slow down but this means that the enemy will have to slow down too!” Chen Xiaobei answered. “Trust me. Descend. I have an idea!”
“Alright!” Ao Liancheng nodded, and plunged their vehicle down until the tall mountain peaks and towering trees became obstacles.
Although Ao Liancheng had great piloting skills, owing to too many obstructions which were in their way, they had to decelerate to an alarmingly slow pace.
Fortunately, their enemies were forced to slow down as well. But with hundreds of s.p.a.cecraft flying in a cl.u.s.ter, it proved to be very difficult to maneuver their way around the mountains and trees. Occasionally, it was so congested that most of them had to stop.
“Zhufeng! You really are smart!” Ao Liancheng cheered. “We just need to fly in a few more circles like that, we can ditch those idiots!”
“It’s not that easy! Open the cabin door and let me out!” Chen Xiaobei said.
“Let you out?” Ao Liancheng was unnerved. “Are you going to jump down? You cannot! You’ll be surrounded!”
Swoos.h.!.+
Swoos.h.!.+
Swoos.h.!.+
BAM!
BAM!
BAM!
Suddenly, a loud deafening sound came from behind.
The Tenshou’s s.p.a.cecraft behind were shooting laser beams and were increasing in speed.
Everything that the lasers. .h.i.t was destroyed.
Gradually, the Tenshou began to catch up with Chen Xiaobei and Ao Liancheng.
“Listen to me! Open the cabin door!” Chen Xiaobei shouted over the noise. “I’m not going to jump down! I’m going to kill people!”
“Kill… Kill people?” Ao Liancheng was perplexed but he knew that Chen Xiaobei was not a common man. It was the right thing to listen to Chen Xiaobei!
Ao Liancheng opened the cabin door, and a maddening rush of wind came gusting in.
Chen Xiaobei leaped out of the open exit, jumped onto his Somersault Cloud and charged towards the hundreds of s.p.a.cecraft coming his way.
