Chapter 488: Chapter 343 Zhang Tianxing

After about five days of rest, with both Hu Fei and Jiang Mingtian almost fully recovered and capable of combat, Li Yi decided to embark on their journey to leave the Sixth World and return to the Golden Academy.

Hu Fei and Jiang Mingtian both agreed with this decision.

They had already been wanted by the Genetic Federation, there was no need to stay any longer, and they had obtained what they needed.

"Lan Ji, start up the Thunder Warplanes, head for the Sixth Base." Seeing this, Li Yi didn’t hesitate to board the cockpit and issued the command.

As the trio of Thunder Warplanes tore through the sky, the three set off on their journey home.

"To return to the Sixth Base, we have to penetrate the Genetic Federation’s defense line. How is the performance of this warplane? Can it carry us straight through?" Inside the cockpit, Jiang Mingtian suddenly asked.

Li Yi said: "With the speed of the Thunder Warplane, the Genetic Federation’s anti-air weapons simply cannot hit us, unless they deploy warplanes of the same class to intercept. But they can hardly afford to station such class of warplanes around the defensive line, so rest assured, we can definitely break through in one go."

He had already familiarized himself with the capabilities of the Thunder Warplane.

This was the latest generation warplane of the Genetic Federation, with outstanding performance in all aspects. If not for Li Yi taking over the public base, it would have been impossible to get these machines.

"Hearing you say that, does it mean that in the future, relying on the Thunder Warplane, we can ignore their defense lines and freely enter and exit the Sixth World?" Jiang Mingtian said.

Li Yi said: "In theory, yes. However, the Golden Academy probably won’t let us fly around in warplanes so freely. After all, it’s the Golden Academy that controls the worlds, not us. It’s still better to follow your previous plan, Jiang Mingtian, to build a personal Cross-border Base, so as not to be beholden to anyone."

"It’s a pity we couldn’t acquire the complete rarity; just relying on the remnants is not enough for interdimensional travel." Jiang Mingtian said helplessly.

"Even with the strength of the Soul Realm, it’s not enough to maintain a Cross-border Base. If targeted by someone with bad intentions, it would be unlucky, as some in the Spirit Power Realm have very low limits." Hu Fei reminded them on the side.

"That’s also true." Li Yi thought of the recently deceased Huo Hong.

He had directly experienced the brazenness of experts. Laws simply could not restrain such people; they acted entirely on their own whims. If there were really a Cross-border Base now, it would undoubtedly be targeted for a heist.

As the three of them chatted, the Thunder Warplanes had bypassed countless cities and finally arrived near the defensive line of the Sixth Base.

However, facing the three defense lines, the Thunder Warplanes did not slow down but instead crossed at maximum speed.

There were also defenses in the air for the Genetic Federation.

There were floating bases, ready-to-deploy spacecraft, warplanes, and high-level genetic warriors stationed in the sky.

"What’s that? The latest-generation Thunder Warplane? Why is it flying towards the Sixth Base? Is there some special combat mission?"

"No, that’s not right, the three warplanes are not sending back signals; they are enemy planes, damn it, those treacherous Earth Prisoners have stolen our Thunder Warplanes, fire, shoot them down."

"No good, they’re too fast, high-energy anti-aircraft guns can’t hit them, should we deploy intelligent tracking missiles?"

Inside the aerial defense line, various level-six genetic warriors watched the trio of Thunder Warplanes pass over their heads towards the Sixth Base, their eyes almost shooting fire with frustration, yet they were powerless to do anything. If the enemy stopped to engage in battle, they had plenty of ways to destroy these warplanes, but if the enemy just thought about escaping, they simply could not intercept.

Then considering the threat to the Sixth Base, they dared not initiate combat and could only watch helplessly as Li Yi and his group slipped away.

"Successfully crossed the aerial defense line."

Inside the Thunder Warplane, Lan Ji’s voice sounded.

It was only then that Li Yi breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had confidence in the performance of the warplane, he was unavoidably still nervous since this time there wasn’t a Spirit Power Realm powerhouse to clear the way for them.

But fortunately, there was no incident.

Soon, the Thunder Warplane arrived over the Sixth Base and began to descend slowly.

However, the sudden visit of three unfamiliar warplanes immediately caught the attention of some Cultivators at the Sixth Base. Seeing that the warplanes did not intend to open fire, they merely stayed on guard without immediately taking action, as there had been precedents where the students from the Golden Academy had seized ships from the Sixth World to come to the base.

So for these unidentified warplanes, their first thought was whether it was yet another student who had successfully hijacked one.

Following the opening of the cockpit’s hatch.

Li Yi, Jiang Mingtian, and Hu Fei leaped down from the air.

"Identity information confirmed, student Li Yi, student Jiang Mingtian, student Hu Fei, alarm disabled..."

As soon as they appeared, the intelligence system of the Sixth Base had already identified their identities.

"Finally back."

Seeing the familiar base, the three of them relaxed quite a bit, and with Huo Hong already dead, they no longer had to worry about being targeted or attacked from the shadows.

"Not a bad haul, you guys are the most outstanding batch among students who recently returned to the base, to have seized three Thunder Warplanes. These machines are considered strategic weapons in the Sixth World, one charged shot could kill a level-seven genetic warrior, and if converted to our side, it could severely injure a Spirit God Realm powerhouse."
