When Qin Tian returned to the base, it had already entered a state of full lockdown. The energy shield was fully activated, the detectors on the watchtowers flashed frequently, and the number of patrolling soldiers increased. The security checks at each checkpoint were several times more rigorous than before.
Qin Tian understood that this must be because of the intense space fluctuation caused by Adif breaking through to Tier Seven.
In the eyes of commanders like Luo Yu and Nangong Lin, a Moluo race powerhouse, originally hostile to the Empire, breaking through to Tier Seven is undoubtedly the Damocles sword hanging over the base, and any slight carelessness could lead to disaster.
However, Qin Tian did not plan to explain.
The pacification of the Moluo race was something he did not want the outside world to know about for the time being.
He hopes this group, naturally adept at the Power of Space, can become the most hidden and sharpest blade in his hands.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The pill masters within the base quickly adapted to life here, even wishing for these days to last a bit longer.
For them, this was not a temporary rest but rather a rare cultivation opportunity.
Elder Yun Heli unreservedly imparted his experience in alchemy and medicine refining. The chance to listen to a lecture from the Great Elder of the Dan Tower at such a close range might occur only once in their lifetime, and only by fully absorbing and assimilating it can they make the most of this opportunity.
The state of immersive cultivation from the pill masters also allowed the Tianwei Fleet, responsible for protecting them, to breathe a sigh of relief.
Previously, their biggest concern was the pill masters’ curiosity leading them to venture out on their own. Encounters with the Blood Gu Beast or the Moluo race could lead to disastrous consequences.
Now, all their worries seem redundant.
Unlike the pill masters focused on cultivation, General Qin turned out to be the most "busy" person in the base.
He would frequently go out every day, his whereabouts mysterious, and never disclosed his destination to anyone.
However, no one worried about his safety.
After all, this was someone who could venture into Subspace alone and personally kill a Tier Seven Holy Blood powerhouse, so the environment of Montel Star posed no threat to him.
In recent days, the core task of the base is still to reconstruct a comprehensive alert system.
Luo Yu, Nangong Lin, and others have learned from the lesson of the munitions depot theft, established dozens of hidden watchtowers, optimized the alert range of detectors, and have pledged to eliminate any possibility of a Moluo race intrusion into the base, fully protecting the safety of Yun Heli and other pill masters.
...
Inside a lavish palace, the floor paved with white jade gleamed with a warm luster. Carved white jade pillars stood upright, with ancient patterns engraved on them, circulating a faint energy halo.
The whole palace was magnificent yet exuded a sense of transcendental majesty, the secret meetup venue of the Mythical Society.
"Oh, you’re quite early today." Qin Tian walked slowly into the hall, his gaze falling on the white-clad man leaning against a white jade pillar, a smile lifting the corner of his mouth.
The white-clad man’s figure was tall and straight, holding a sword in one hand; he was the True Martial Emperor.
Simultaneously, he was also a Black Card Judge of the Judgement Court, a Tier Eight Spiritualist, with the honorable title "Sword Immortal" Yang Lingfeng.
Upon first meeting Yang Lingfeng, Qin Tian felt a hint of familiarity, until Yang Lingfeng made his move, releasing that sharp Sword Intent that instantly evoked memories.
Yang Lingfeng was indeed the one who led him into the Mythical Society.
At that time, Yang Lingfeng transformed into a white-clad swordsman, breaking through thousands of techniques with a single sword, nearly taking his life.
Ultimately, it was due to his diverse "Reflective Damage" abilities that allowed this Sword Immortal to suffer a small setback, and it was precisely because of this that he managed to pass the test and stepped into the doors of the Mythical Society.
Looking back now, Yang Lingfeng clearly went easy on him back then.
If the Tier Eight Sword Immortal had truly exerted his full strength, relying merely on his then Tier Six power, he would have had no chance to resist.
"Because I know, you would arrive early too." Yang Lingfeng’s voice carried a hint of wonder, "By the way, how did you recognize me? To conceal my identity, I specifically changed to a set of swordsmanship you’ve never seen and deliberately restrained my aura a bit."
Qin Tian smiled slightly: "Your swordsmanship can change infinitely, and your moves can be deliberately disguised, but the aura fluctuations around you, unique human characteristics, and exclusive life magnetic field are things that cannot be concealed. To me, these things, like human appearance, are unique and can be identified at a glance."
"I see." Yang Lingfeng shook his head helplessly, a look of appreciation flashing in his eyes, "You, born to do intelligence work. I heard that you hold the Major General title in the Seventh Bureau without real power. How about I put in a word with Marshal Lin to transfer you to our Judgement Court? I guarantee to give you the position of Black Card Judge directly and let you lead a large operation team."
"Forget it, I’m not interested in those tasks of the Judgement Court," Qin Tian waved his hand, "Don’t forget, in the Seventh Bureau, though I have no real power, I am the Guardian Envoy of the Ice Extreme Pass on Mingwang Planet—whether Mingwang Planet remains in order, it’s up to me."
"Oh, you’re quite bold," Yang Lingfeng slightly raised his eyebrows, looking at him with a smirk, "What’s this, reaching for ambition to sit on the Governor’s throne of Mingwang Planet?" freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Qin Tian did not respond directly, just the corner of his mouth curled into a meaningful smile.
That expressive demeanor led Yang Lingfeng to understand his intentions—the position of Governor on Mingwang Planet, he was determined to win.
"Indeed, for you, the Judgement Court platform is too small," Yang Lingfeng chuckled softly, "Governor on Mingwang Planet, huh, that matches your ’Pluto’ title in the Mythical Society."
