320 Bizarre Village! (2/2)

”At the same time, gather all the Array Runes cultivators as well as Dharmic Armament cultivators in the Martian City and bring them along. If the objects within the seven areas can't be brought out, then they are to research them on the spot!”

General Li from the military immediately obeyed the command. He then turned around, efficiently making plans to carry out the command. With that, the entire Mars military was activated, and as commands were passed down, the identities and residential addresses of Array Runes and Dharmic Armament cultivators within Martian Colony City were retrieved.

Wang Baole and Lin Tianhao's name were among the data reviewed.

As the command was sent out, numerous cruisers rushed out from the military base. With the fastest speed, they ferried the Array Runes and Dharmic Armament cultivators to accompany the seven branch teams.

At the same time, in order to prevent widespread panic, the entire mission was conducted in secrecy.

One of the cruisers headed directly to Dao Mountain Mist Academy at high speed. After it arrived in Dao Mountain Mist Academy, it immediately sent a voice transmission to Wang Baole. However, it was futile as there was no reply received. That made the military personnel who were looking for Wang Baole troubled. Instead, they located Lin Tianhao.

The arrival of the military surprised Lin Tianhao, and he immediately sent a voice transmission to Wang Baole. However, he was unable to contact him as well. In the end, with the military running out of time, they looked at Lin Tianhao and announced.

”Lin Tianhao, you have been drafted!”

Lin Tianhao didn't know how to nor was he able to reject being drafted by the military. After a few silent breaths, he immediately nodded his head and stepped into the military cruiser, leaving Dao Mountain Mist Academy.

Before long, the seven unique cruisers that could withstand a brief moment of Spirit Restriction emerged from Martian City, heading at high speed in seven different directions.

At the same time, outside the Colonial City in the wilderness, on the plains within the blood-colored fog, it was completely dark in the underground cave where the evil cultivator previously resided. In the darkness, Wang Baole sat down after guiding himself using the wall. He gasped as he thought about the sudden appearance and disappeared of extreme pain despite his body disintegrating the blood-colored fog that entered him.

”Quiet!” Li Wan'er ordered softly the moment Wang Baole gasped.

Wang Baole stared at her. However, when he thought about the misunderstanding he had towards her previously, he sneered under his breath and unwillingly followed suit without paying further attention. He shut his eyes and tried to connect with the devouring seed, so as to regain his cultivation as soon as possible.

At the same time, he was also feeling troubled. Being trapped where he was without doing anything felt too passive. However, he understood clearly that the blood-colored fog outside would probably not last long. Furthermore, the longer he and Li Wan'er remained uncontactable, the more likely the Martian Colonial City would realize. Then, following the clues, they should be able to locate them.

Thankfully, I contacted the Sect Lord previously. If I don't reply to his messages for an extended period of time, he will probably know that trouble occurred!

With that thought, Wang Baole heaved a sigh of relief. Simultaneously, he continued to strengthen his connection with the devouring seed. Li Wan'er also tried all ways to regain her cultivation.

The problem was that the Spirit Restriction happened so suddenly and was on a large scale. It appeared that neither of their cultivations couldn't be regained within a short time. As for the underground cave, it wouldn't have mattered if it was merely shrouded in darkness. What made it worse was that it was now winter on Mars, and temperatures were already low. On normal days, the array formation provided some form of protection in the Colonial City. Even if they were to go outdoors, their cultivation could protect them, allowing them to withstand Mars' temperatures.

However, right now, due to the Spirit Restriction, Wang Baole and Li Wan'er seemed to have immediately become commoners. Not only was their cultivation restricted, they gradually grew incapable of withstanding the cold.

After half an hour, the duo, who had kept silent since the start, began to feel an increasingly stronger sense of cold in the underground cave. Wang Baole, despite being fat and thick-skinned, began to feel weaker and colder as his body was somewhat exhausted when it tried to disintegrate the red fog.

As for Li Wan'er, even though her cultivation exceeded that of Wang Baole's, she wasn't as strong physically. Therefore, very quickly, Wang Baole heard Li Wan'er's teeth chattering as she shivered, as well as her gradually weakening breathing.

It could be that the dip in temperature was very significant, or that it was low, to begin with, but the emergence of the red fog affected and weakened the duo—causing Li Wan'er to lose heat extremely quickly. She couldn't withstand it any longer.

If this were to carry on, even if the duo's bodies evolved by virtue of the Spirit Qi, which could allow them to maintain the demands for breathing, they would still die eventually!

Seeing that that was the case, Wang Baole hesitated. Even though Li Wan'er was trembling, she still remained calm as she spoke, her voice emerging in the darkness.

”Wang Baole, take off your clothes.”
