Chapter 1555 The Tip of the Iceberg
“Damn it!”
With an angry look on his face, Zhang Mu directly opened the cabin door, ready to jump out and pull You Huo into the cabin.
Unexpectedly, You Huo directly launched an occult art.
The strike sent the entire aircraft flying.
At the same time, You Huo flew quickly to the enemy behind him.
He then sent a secret message to Zhang Mu.
“It’s not a life-and-death parting. Get reinforcements and pick me up.”
After that, You Huo looked ahead. He took out the spirit treasures he had crazily. Together with his supernatural powers and occult arts, he attacked wildly.
He blocked the people behind him for a few seconds, but he only blocked the three flying king vessels for five seconds.
But in just five seconds, the aircraft had already fled some distance away.
He had to make full use of every second.
“Old Huo!”
Zhang Mu sighed helplessly.
Under his gaze, You Huo spat out a mouthful of blood and was seriously injured.
Surprisingly, Song Zhan was the one who hit him the hardest.
“Wait for me!”
Zhang Mu took a deep breath, and the glint of his eyes gradually became sharp. He gave an order to the intelligent system in the aircraft.
“Carry out the overloaded operation. I need the fastest speed!”
Swoosh!
The aircraft was running at full capacity. After this drive, it would probably be scrapped.
But it didn’t matter to Zhang Mu.
If possible, Zhang Mu also wanted to take You Huo away.
But he resolutely rushed out. Zhang Mu knew that if he didn’t cherish this opportunity, both of them would die. Now, his escape represented hope for both of them.
“As long as I can escape to the Frost Pole Star, there will be a way out.”
Zhang Mu silently looked behind him. You Huo had been taken away.
Many aircraft were chasing after Zhang Han from behind. The three king vessels didn’t bother to chase after him and stayed where they were.
The king vessels could easily break into the secondary space. Chasing after him would be a piece of cake for them.
Zhang Mu had been on the run for three hours.
The journey was still very long.
Swoosh!
All of a sudden, the three king vessels appeared several kilometers away in front of Zhang Mu’s aircraft.
“Change the direction!”
Zhang Mu immediately changed his direction and fled at high speed.
“The signal is requesting to be connected.”
Zhang Mu answered, “Agree to connect.”
“The signal has been connected.”
Buzz!
The figures of Song Zhan and others were projected.
“Zhang Mu, you can’t escape. Look at Brother Huo.”
Song Zhan grinned hideously and grabbed You Huo, who was lying next to him.
“Go… just go.”
You Huo’s aura was weak. His whole body was in tatters, and his clothes were dyed red with blood.
Zhang Mu’s eyes widened. “Song Zhan! I’ll kill you!”
Song Zhan smiled faintly and said, “Don’t be so irritable, Brother Mu. You’ll be caught soon. I’ve already contacted the people of the Black Dragon Palace. You have nowhere to run, and you’ll be taken away by them soon. At the same time, our Song Family will get their support. For me, you two have sacrificed yourselves. Alas, I’m very touched.”
Boom!
Zhang Mu’s aura surged, and he almost reached out to crush the projection device.
He took a deep breath.
“Song Zhan, for the sake of our acquaintance, please stop hurting Old Huo…”
Song Zhan nodded and gave a slam with his right hand.
Bam!
Poof!
You Huo was beaten to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Song Zhan wiped his blood-stained palm and sneered. “You’re just prisoners. If you hadn’t escaped first, why would I have taken action? It’s obvious that you didn’t trust me at the very beginning. Do you know how much I paid to catch you? Zhang Mu, don’t worry. You’ll experience the consequences of being tortured later.”
“Disconnect!”
Zhang Mu’s face was livid.
Buzz!
The image dissipated.
“AAAAH!”
Zhang Mu roared in a low voice.
He was angry but powerless.
Swoosh!
The aircraft flew through the void of the universe like a meteor, whistling into the distance.
Behind it, dozens of aircraft were hot on their heels.
The three huge king vessels stopped in the void.
It seemed that they were waiting for Zhang Mu to escape and then catch up with him.
“Alert, the energy cabin is unstable. The overloaded driving mode will be turned off in ten seconds.”
The system had begun protecting the aircraft.
Zhang Mu could refuse to do so.
However, he did not give the order. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes.
He could even feel the aircraft chasing after him.
“They are close, very close…
“I’m about to be surrounded.
“However, why haven’t they made a move yet?
“Is it a trick?”
Zhang Mu opened his eyes.
Hiss!
His pupils constricted.
A king vessel appeared out of nowhere in front of him.
It was shaped like a dragon with a tiger’s head and a dragon’s body, looking aggressive.
If some of the higher-level Dao Seeking Cultivators from the Southern Mountain Area saw this, they would definitely say, “It’s the Tiger Head Vessel, Divine Woman Kong Ling’er’s ride!”
But Zhang Mu didn’t know that.
He sighed helplessly, “I guess this is God’s will…”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Several people flew down from the king vessel.
After Zhang Mu saw this, his eyes gradually widened, and a touch of surprise appeared on his face.
Rumble!
Without waiting for the cabin door to open, he wrenched it open with force and sprang out.
“Guangyou, Han, Elder Yue?
“Hurry and save him!”
Zhang Mu said hurriedly, “You Huo is in the king vessel at the back!”
Clatter!
In the face of those chasing aircraft, Zhang Han casually waved his hand, and these aircraft exploded one after another.
He and his companions looked relaxed now.
Zhang Han said, “Hi, Grandpa.”
“Hi, Dad.” Zhang Guangyou also greeted Zhang Mu.
But after hearing Zhang Mu’s words, they all looked grave.
They could only see three dots of light across the void, which were the king vessels in the distance.
Zhang Han frowned. “It’s too far away!”
Although they were far away from the enemies, the scene captured by the king vessels made Song Zhan and his men’s faces change greatly.
“Who are those people?”
“They are Zhang Mu’s companions!” Song Zhan gasped.
“Hahahaha…” You Huo laughed in a low voice.
“Let’s go!” Song Zhan immediately gave the order.
Poof!
He plunged a black banner into You Huo’s body, which was wreathed in black mist.
“I can’t sense You Huo.”
Yue Wuwei looked grave.
Thump!
A dull sound came from his body, and majestic energy gathered.
“Seal!”
Yue Wuwei pressed his hands forward.
An invisible force crossed the distant space and covered the three king vessels.
Buzz!
The three king vessels were trembling.
Obviously, due to the long distance, it was a bit difficult for Yue Wuwei to seal them with his power.
Zhang Han said quickly, “Let’s go back to the king vessel. Elder Yue, hold on for 30 seconds!”
“I can’t. I can’t suppress them.”
Yue Wuwei raised his eyebrows and said, “I’ll focus on one!”
He immediately abandoned suppressing the other two king vessels and firmly suppressed the king vessel in the middle.
The others quickly returned to the king vessel.
Before they had time to say hello to Zhang Mu, the spaceship broke through the void and flew forward quickly.
Yue Wuwei continued to suppress the king vessel so that it was unable to enter the secondary space.
After flying for a quarter of an hour, Zhang Han and the others finally approached the king vessel.
“He’s not in it.”
Zhang Han shook his head slightly.
“Humph!”
Zhang Mu’s face was terrifyingly gloomy. He was about to leave the spaceship and enter the enemy’s king vessel.
Some people in it wanted to catch him and free You Huo instead. Zhang Mu felt that was feasible.
But he had never expected that-
Bang!
The king vessel suddenly burst into flames and exploded.
Flames soared to the heavens.
“What…” Zhang Mu’s expression changed slightly.
“There are only dozens of people in it, and their auras are low. They are the subordinates who were abandoned.” Zhang Han shook his head.
Kong Ling’er stood at the side and immediately ordered, “Keep track of the other two king vessels.”
Beep! Beep! Beep!
The map showed that the enemies had entered the secondary space and were fleeing in two different directions.
“We can only chase after one king vessel,” said Kong Linger. “If we’re too far away, we’ll be unable to track them down. Since they’re members of the Song Family, then it’s better for us to directly head to the Fire Corn Star and slaughter our way into their lair. By then, they’ll obediently hand You Huo over.”
One could tell that Kong Ling’er was no pushover either from what she said.
“Then let’s go,” Zhang Guangyou said.
“Let’s go to their headquarters and fight!” Chen Chuan echoed.
This kid just felt like fanning the flames.
Of course, it also indirectly showed that he was confident in his elders, who were invincible.
That was why he could be fearless.
But at this time, Yue Wuwei and Zhang Han fell silent.
The two of them didn’t speak, causing the scene to become quiet.
“The time is not right.”
Yue Wuwei sighed softly and said, “Eight hours ago, the Bounded Domain on the Ancient Road of Starry Sky was attacked, and the Space Node was discovered. We don’t have much time to go back. If we go to the Ancient Road of Starry Sky, we’ll have to seal it again before we can hide the Space Node. There’s not much time left. If something goes wrong there, all the people in the ancient martial arts world will suffer. On the way here, I discussed this with Zhang Han. We figured that we had enough time to pick up Zhang Mu, but it won’t work if this trip costs us a few more days.”
Rong Jiali, Zi Yan, and the others’ expressions changed slightly.
“How could this be?”
They were in a dilemma.
“We’ll chase after one king vessel,” Zhang Han said decisively. “It’s not the time to hesitate.”
“Well, we’ll have a 50% chance of success.” Yue Wuwei narrowed his eyes and said, “Do it!”
Swoosh!
The king vessel entered the secondary space and chased after the nearest king vessel.
You Huo was in one of the two king vessels.
Zhang Han and his companions had a 50% chance of success.
A few hours later, they caught up with the targeted king vessel.
“He, he’s not in it?” Mengmeng was in a daze.
“We lost.”
Yue Wuwei sounded very depressed.
Just like in the previous situations, after being caught, the self-destruct program inside the king vessel was activated, and even some of the subordinates in the king vessel were unaware of it.
“Self-destruct countdown: 3, 2, 1!”
They had three seconds, or it would be too late to escape.
“Let’s go. I’ll send you back first.”
Yue Wuwei said, “I’ll seal the Ancient Road of Starry Sky again, and then Zhang Han and I will go to several major sects. What a group of shameless guys! How infuriating.”
“Let’s go back,” Zhang Han said.
“Okay.” Kong Ling’er nodded and immediately gave the order. The king vessel entered the secondary space and left.
“Great-Grandpa, why did you come to the Astral Domain of Vast Heaven?” Mengmeng sat aside and talked to Zhang Mu.
In the face of Mengmeng, Zhang Mu also smiled and said, “My good granddaughter, you’re already so tall.”
“Yeah.”
It had been a long while since they last saw each other. Now that they were reunited, they had a lot of catch-up to do.
The crowd learned that Zhang Mu and You Huo’s friend who had gone through the secret realm of life and death with them had betrayed them, and You Huo stepped forward bravely but was caught.
This matter brought silence to the scene.
“It’s so despicable!” Mengmeng looked angry.
“Don’t worry. After dealing with the Ancient Road of Starry Sky, we’ll deal with the Song Family,” Yue Wuwei said flatly.
But things were always full of surprises.
When they returned to the vicinity of the Space Node, the scene that came into view was quite shocking.
Many spaceships kept bombarding one place in several directions.
There were more than a thousand spaceships.
“It’s the Black Dragon Palace and Prime Yang Palace’s fleets. Those are their squads.”
After observing for a while, Kong Ling’er said, “Their base is behind us, and there are also a few teams stationed there.”
While she spoke, the scene in the distance was captured and shown on the screen.
The spaceships on the base were divided into three forces. 2,000 of them belonged to the Starlight Divine Sect while the Black Dragon Palace and the Prime Yang Palace each owned more than 3,000.
It was mighty and imposing. This was the tip of the iceberg for their forces.
