After the Spiritual Energy User troops entered, Qin Tian completely stopped.Most of the Xingdao (Star Pirates) had been killed by him, and the task of hunting down the remaining Xingdao (Star Pirates) was handed over to these Spiritual Energy User warriors.Qin Tian flew out of the hatch, his Starry Sky Armed covering his entire body. He traveled a distance, observing the battle between the three powerhouses of the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates and the military's Spiritual Energy Users.The leader of the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates, nicknamed "Blood Demon," had always worn a mask since the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates was founded. No one knew what the face under that mask truly looked like. This person was mysterious and powerful, a Seventh-level Spiritual Energy User, and his bloodline level was definitely not weak.The second-in-command, Ling Jue, was a Silver-level bloodline Spiritual Energy User of Six-level Four-star and above, with a Cold Blooded and ruthless personality, skilled in saber techniques.The third-in-command, "Frost" Morris, was a Six-level Silver-level Psychic Mage, proficient in ice spells.If these three were allowed to charge freely, 10 Shadowblade destroyers would be unable to resist. Fortunately, for this encirclement operation, the military also dispatched several top powerhouses.In the starry sky, energy storms raged.Six figures intertwined and collided in the void, each exchange stirring up terrifying psychic ripples.The Shadowblade-class destroyers had long since retreated to a safe distance, their ship cannons locked onto the battlefield, but they dared not fire easily—battles of this caliber could no longer be intervened with by mundane weapons."Blood Demon" was enveloped in blood-colored psychic energy, each wave of his hand bringing forth monstrous blood waves.His opponent was the deputy commander of the Liyue Star Region's 27th Army—"Iron Wall" Rosen, also a Seventh-level psychic powerhouse.Rosen's arms were covered in heavy psychic armor, directly taking a blood palm strike from Blood Demon. The explosive shockwave pulverized nearby floating asteroids into dust."A rat hiding his head!" Rosen sneered, a dazzling golden light condensing on his fist, "Let me see your true face!"Blood Demon remained silent, a flicker of strange light in his eyes beneath the mask.His figure suddenly blurred, transforming into nine blood shadows that attacked Rosen from different angles. Each blood shadow carried corrosive energy, even scorching the space into twisted traces.Ling Jue's saber light poured down like a galaxy, each strike carrying the might to cleave space.His opponent was the Six-level sword master Bai Ye. Saber and sword clashed, psychic energy colliding in the starry sky, creating brilliant sparks."Your saber is too slow," Bai Ye suddenly changed his move, his sword tip tracing an enigmatic trajectory.Three bloody marks instantly appeared on Ling Jue's sleeve, but he instead revealed a ferocious smile."Interesting, this is worthy of being my whetstone!"Morris was surrounded by an absolute zero cold current, as if even starlight was frozen.And his opponent—the fire-elemental psychic master Yan Jin—controlled flames that could incinerate all things. The collision of ice and fire formed a magnificent yet deadly energy vortex in space."Your ice..." Yan Jin formed hand seals, a massive fiery bird phantom appearing behind him, "is not cold enough!"Just as the battle reached a stalemate, Rosen's tactical earpiece suddenly rang:"Report, Commander! The Hundred Hunt Star Pirates' spaceship is completely under control, all hostages are safe!"Rosen's eyes flashed with sharp light: "Net the catch!"Almost simultaneously, three new powerful auras shot up from the nearest Shadowblade ship!"Chains" Hodel, a Seventh-level Spiritual Energy User;"Shadow Dance" Xue Qingshan, a Six-level peak assassin;"Bedrock" Wu Kelei, a top-tier defensive powerhouse.Dr. Xie's death enraged the military. The high command issued a death order to annihilate the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates with lightning speed.Upon learning the strength of the three leaders of the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates, the military naturally dispatched more than just three top experts; there were a total of six.Two Seventh-level and four Six-level.Furthermore, the four Six-level powerhouses all possessed Silver-level bloodlines, and the two Seventh-level powerhouses possessed Gold-level bloodlines.Earlier, Rosen had been worried that Blood Demon might have left some contingency plan inside the spaceship. If Blood Demon felt there was no hope of breaking through, he might detonate the spaceship or massacre the hostages inside, causing unnecessary trouble.Therefore, he only allowed Bai Ye and Yan Jin to participate in the battle, focusing on entanglement to give the opponent the illusion that there might be a chance to break through if they fought hard.However, once the Spiritual Energy User warriors successfully controlled the spaceship, then it would be the death of Blood Demon and his two companions.The void trembled as six terrifying auras, like a net cast from heaven and earth, surrounded Blood Demon and his two companions.Facing such a formation, a crimson light flashed in Blood Demon's eyes beneath his mask."Form up!" Blood Demon roared, and the three instantly formed a triangular battle formation back-to-back.Ling Jue's blade shone with dazzling silver light, crystalline ice armor condensed around Morris, while Blood Demon forced out three drops of essence blood from his palm, drawing a blood-colored rune in the void."Blood Prison Array, activate!"The blood-colored rune suddenly expanded, transforming into a crimson barrier a thousand meters in diameter. Rosen's golden fist print slammed onto the barrier, yet only stirred up a ripple."A bit interesting," Hodel sneered, his chains moving like spiritual snakes, "Let's see how long you can last!"2The six powerhouses attacked simultaneously.Bai Ye's sword light poured down like the Milky Way, each strike carrying the power to cleave space; Yan Jin summoned a sky-burning fire phoenix, its scorching flames distorting the void; Wu Kelei transformed into an iron giant, each punch carrying the might to shatter mountains and crack the earth."Boom!"The first wave of attacks landed, and the blood-colored barrier shook violently but did not break.Blood Demon seized the opportunity to counterattack. Nine blood shadows split from the barrier, each carrying seventy percent of the main body's strength, striking in different directions."Petty tricks!" Rosen clashed his fists, a golden light wave sweeping in all directions, instantly shattering three blood shadows, but the remaining six had already approached the various Shadowblade ships."Protect the warships!" Hodel hastily redirected his chains, silver light flashing as he shredded two blood shadows.Xue Qingshan and Wu Kelei each intercepted one.Just in this flash of lightning, Blood Demon and his two companions suddenly erupted!"Blood Sea Surging!"Blood Demon formed hand seals, and monstrous blood waves swept across the battlefield.Ling Jue seized the opportunity to advance, slashing with his saber:"Thousand Blades, Cleave Space!"iMorris, on the other hand, fully activated his ice law, turning a ten-thousand-meter radius into an absolute zero domain."Bang!"Bai Ye was forced back three steps by Ling Jue's saber light, a fine crack appearing on his chest armor.Yan Jin's fire phoenix was also suppressed by the ice domain, its flames dimming somewhat.But the advantage still lay with the military.Rosen and Hodel, the two Seventh-level powerhouses, quickly stabilized their footing, their golden fist prints and silver chains intertwining into a net of death."Pfft!"In the second round of confrontation, Ling Jue was the first to be unable to hold on.Hodel's chains pierced through his saber net, leaving a bowl-sized blood hole in his abdomen.Morris's ice domain was also broken by the combined efforts of Yan Jin and Wu Kelei, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.Seeing this, Blood Demon suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood:"Blood Sacrifice, Myriad Souls Summon!"?The void suddenly cracked open with countless fine fissures, and countless wailing vengeful spirits surged out.Rosen's expression changed slightly: "Be careful!!"Just as the military powerhouses were distracted by the vengeful spirits, Blood Demon suddenly transformed into a blood-light and rushed towards the nearest Shadowblade ship.However, "I've been expecting you!"Xue Qingshan appeared like a ghost, his dagger heading straight for Blood Demon's throat."Clang!"WBlood Demon parried in haste, his mask cracking from the aftershock.Rosen seized the opportunity, his golden fist print solidly striking his back."Cough!" Blood Demon spat out a mouthful of blood, his figure staggering.Hodel's chains took the opportunity to lash out like a whip, striking Blood Demon's face."Bang!"With the final blow, Blood Demon's mask completely shattered.A pale face, as if it had never seen sunlight, was revealed.Qin Tian had been paying close attention to this thrilling battle with his mental power. When he saw Blood Demon's true face, his pupils suddenly contracted.He recognized this person!No, to be precise, the object of his Soul Devour, the "Ghost" examiner, recognized Blood Demon.Blood Demon had entered the Blood Demon Sect with "Ghost" back then and successfully underwent the bloodline transplant surgery. Just a few years ago, the two had even met at a secret meeting held by the Blood Demon Sect.It turned out that the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates was a chess piece secretly cultivated by the Blood Demon Sect, and killing Dr. Xie was most likely the Blood Demon Sect's idea.No wonder the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates chose to kill Dr. Xie directly after capturing him, instead of trying to exchange him for greater benefits, as everyone had speculated.Now it seemed that the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates' goal was very clear: to act under the command of the Blood Demon Sect, kill Dr. Xie, and force the military's key scientific research project to be interrupted.Thinking of this, Qin Tian decisively used the remote mental communication ability of the Divine Right of Spiritual Intelligence to tell his discovery to that Seventh-level powerhouse, Rosen.“Sir, I am Colonel Qin Tian of the Seventh Bureau. I recognize Blood Demon; he is from the Blood Demon Sect.”A voice rang out in his mind.Upon hearing this, Rosen’s eyes flashed.The name Qin Tian was not unfamiliar to him. The military’s encirclement operation today was entirely thanks to Colonel Qin Tian, who secretly infiltrated a Hundred Hunt Star Pirates’ spaceship and sent its location to the military.He was willing to believe the words of this Seventh Bureau elite.Blood Demon, so he was from the Blood Demon Sect. Rosen sneered. If that was the case, then Blood Demon could not die so easily.It was known that the scandal caused by the Blood Demon Sect in the recent Talent War had made the Oriental Family lose face. Although the Talent War eventually concluded smoothly without major incident, the Oriental Family would not let it go just like that.If he could hand Blood Demon over to the Oriental Family and extract more important information about the Blood Demon Sect from him, he believed the Oriental Family would give him a fitting reward.“Blood Demon is from the Blood Demon Sect.”Rosen communicated mentally with the other five, “Ling Jue and Morris can die, but try to capture Blood Demon alive.”What? Blood Demon Sect? Upon hearing the three words ‘Blood Demon Sect’, the other five also realized the complexity behind this matter. “Understood!” Five mental responses echoed simultaneously.Hodel’s Silver-level chains were the first to strike, countless runic chains coiling around Ling Jue like living creatures. Each chain contained a power of restriction; even space subtly distorted where they passed.“Get lost!” Ling Jue roared, his battle saber slashing out in a cross, its blade glowing with dazzling silver light. His saber technique was as fast as lightning, and the crisscrossing saber qi actually severed dozens of chains.But just then—“Your saber has too many flaws.” Bai Ye’s voice, like a ghost, sounded in his ear.Ling Jue’s heart blared with warning, and his battle saber spun to parry, but Bai Ye’s sword was faster than he imagined!A brilliant sword light flashed, Ling Jue’s protective Psychic Mage energy was instantly pierced, and a bloom of blood burst from his left shoulder!“Pfft!”Blood solidified into eerie blood beads in the vacuum.Ling Jue grunted, but a hint of madness flashed in his eyes: “Let’s die together!”His blood vessels instantly bulged, Psychic Mage energy erupted like a volcano, and his skin cracked, as if molten lava flowed within the fissures.“Blood Burning Secret Art!”This was a secret art only used in desperate situations, capable of bursting forth several times his combat power in a short period.“Be careful! He’s going all out!” Xue Qingshan sharply warned. Ling Jue’s eyes were bloodshot, and he swung his saber, unleashing a massive crimson long saber.This strike contained his lifelong cultivation, with saber intent and secret art perfectly fused, actually cutting a crimson saber glow a thousand meters long in the void. “Thousand Blades: Mutual Destruction!”Facing this desperate attack, the six had no choice but to temporarily avoid its edge.Rosen and Hodel, two Seventh Bureau powerhouses, simultaneously attacked, their golden fist prints and Silver-level chains intertwining into a defensive net.Just as Ling Jue unleashed the Blood Burning Secret Art in a desperate gamble, a hint of determination flashed in Blood Demon’s eyes.He suddenly bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of essence blood, and quickly formed hand seals: “Blood Shadow Escape!”In an instant, nine blood shadow clones simultaneously separated from his body, each emitting an aura identical to his true form.These blood shadows broke through in different directions, attempting to confuse their pursuers.Morris condensed two ice lances in his hands, their tips radiating dazzling blue light.“Trying to escape?” Rosen sneered, clapping his palms together, “Golden Cage!”Brilliant golden light erupted from his body, instantly forming a massive golden cage in the void. Hodel simultaneously attacked, his Silver-level chains splitting into thousands, pursuing each blood shadow like living things.“Bang, bang, bang!”Seven blood shadows were successively shattered by the chains, but the remaining two were already nearing the edge of the cage.At this critical moment, Bai Ye’s figure suddenly appeared before Blood Demon’s true body.“Your tricks are too old-fashioned,” Bai Ye said coldly, his longsword tracing an arcane trajectory, sword light pouring out like moonlight. Although his strength couldn’t kill Blood Demon, it forced Blood Demon to abandon his escape technique and focus entirely on defense.On the other side, Morris’s ice lance had already pierced towards Yan Jin.Wherever the spear tip passed, even space was frozen, forming fine ice cracks.“Good!” Yan Jin neither dodged nor retreated, forming hand seals. The Psychic Mage necklace around his neck glowed with intense light:“Burning Heaven!”Scorching fire waves surged from his body, colliding head-on with the ice lance.Ice and fire clashed, erupting in a deafening roar. Morris’s expression changed; his ice power was actually suppressed!Whoosh! Wu Kelei had appeared behind Morris at some unknown point, his iron fist striking towards Morris’s back with the force of collapsing mountains.Morris hurriedly turned, an ice shield instantly condensing.However—“Crack!”The shield shattered in response, and the iron fist’s momentum remained undiminished, heavily striking his chest. Morris spat out a mouthful of blood, his body staggering backward.“Die!”Xue Qingshan appeared behind Morris like a ghost. A black light flashed, and Morris’s head flew high, his face still frozen in an expression of disbelief.On the other side, Ling Jue, who had unleashed his strongest attack, rapidly faded in aura. A chain extended like a venomous snake, instantly piercing his heart.Ling Jue and Morris, the second and third in command of the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates, died one after another.Witnessing this, Blood Demon’s gaze turned cold, and blood energy surged wildly around him.“Blood Demon Disintegration!”His body suddenly swelled, and dense crimson runes appeared on his skin. Terrifying energy fluctuations caused the surrounding space to begin distorting.“Be careful! He’s going all out too!” Hodel sharply warned.Rosen, however, snorted coldly: “A dying struggle!”He pushed his palms forward, his golden bloodline erupting with full force, and a golden pillar of light, a hundred meters in diameter, descended from the sky, completely enveloping Blood Demon.Hodel simultaneously attacked, his Silver-level chains coiling upwards like dragons and snakes.Boom!A terrifying crimson glow suddenly erupted from Blood Demon’s eyes, and the blood energy around him exploded like a volcanic eruption.“Blood Demon True Form!”With a roar, his body abruptly swelled to over three meters tall, his skin completely transforming into dark red, and two hideous bony horns growing from his forehead.Behind him, a pair of wings, condensed from pure blood energy, extended. Each flap brought forth a storm of blood and gore.Blood Demon roared to the sky, and the sound waves transformed into tangible crimson ripples that spread outwards.Xue Qingshan, who was closest, grunted, blood seeping from all seven of his orifices, forcing him to retreat rapidly. Even Rosen’s golden light pillar flickered unsteadily from the sound wave’s shock.“All of you, die!”Blood Demon flapped his wings, moving at extreme speed, leaving dozens of afterimages in the air. His sharp bone claws directly tore through Hodel’s chain defense, leaving five deep, bone-visible wounds on his chest.“Pfft!” Hodel spat out a mouthful of blood, his body retreating violently.Blood Demon, having gained the upper hand, showed no mercy and turned to pounce on Yan Jin, the Psychic Mage with the weakest physique. Fortunately, Wu Kelei reacted in time, blocking Blood Demon in front of Yan Jin.“Form the array!”Rosen roared, forming hand seals, “Golden Demon Suppressing Seal!”The other five immediately understood, each taking a position. Six different-attributed Psychic Mage energies intertwined into a net, trapping Blood Demon in the center. Golden runes appeared in the void, coiling around Blood Demon’s body like chains.“Ah!”Blood Demon struggled frantically, his crimson wings continuously flapping. The golden runes flickered unsteadily, on the verge of shattering.Just then— “Now!” Bai Ye drew his longsword, and a dazzling white light illuminated its blade. This sword strike was as fast as lightning, piercing directly into Blood Demon’s back and through his chest!“Ah!”Blood Demon let out a shrill scream, his movements instantly halting.Hodel seized the opportunity, his Silver-level chains coiling up like venomous snakes, binding him like a zongzi.Rosen, meanwhile, slapped his palm onto Blood Demon’s crown, golden Psychic Mage energy surging in like a tide, forcefully suppressing the rampaging blood energy within him.“Pfft!”Facing the siege of six powerhouses, even if Blood Demon used the Blood Demon Disintegration Great Art, it was futile.Blood Demon spat out a mouthful of blood, his crimson wings shattered inch by inch, and the blood glow in his eyes gradually dimmed. Finally, his head lolled to the side, and he completely fell unconscious.At this point, all members of the Hundred Hunt Star Pirates had been apprehended and executed.
