Chapter 315: Chapter 297 Wrong Command?_2

Green smoke and clouds originated from the high skies of the Absolute Sky Forbidden Land, that shadowy projection of an Alien God encased in black cloaks.

It seemed to be... a thread on the cloak.

"Similar to those green ants released by The Observer, which can gnaw at their thoughts and consciousness, and can dominate and enslave their bodies."

Pang Jian realized something and quietly approached.

"I don’t need backup!"

Wu Yuan frowned, somewhat displeased as he looked at Pang Jian coming with his gun, and said coldly, "I can deal with all the Alien Tribes here, you go elsewhere."

Pang Jian stopped and then said, "Either you kill those living dead yourself, or I will do it."

The disciples of the Demon Lord and the people of Sky Water Swamp, who moved like zombies, had escaped from Mysterious Fog but still had not awakened.

Moreover, they continued to mechanically and numbly hold the Spirit Jade to draw power, still summoning brightly colored Firm Covers.

Once away from Mysterious Fog, there was no need to maintain the protective Firm Cover permanently, but clearly, they were unaware.

"What’s wrong with them?"

Wu Yuan said warily.

"They’ve been infected by the malicious force of an Alien God from the Outer Realm while they were vulnerable. I saw something drilling into them," Pang Jian answered and then added, "If they are not killed in time, they will become even more troublesome than those Alien Tribes you have killed."

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

"Fine."

Wu Yuan, who practiced the "Demon Stone Spell" of the Heaven Demon Sect, with a heart as hard as rock and devoid of emotional entanglements, immediately manipulated his carefully selected Demon Stones.

Twelve massive rocks, like meteors falling from the sky, swiftly bombed those sitting corpses to death.

"Boom! Boom, boom!"

Dozens of the living dead were smashed to death, their skulls and bones shattered together by the Demon Stones that fell and then flew up again.

Pang Jian was taken aback, not expecting the man to be so decisive and to kill without hesitation.

"Hiss!"

He released the golden Divine Consciousness from his eyes, trying to enter the brain area of the deceased to gather any possibly remaining Divine Consciousness.

But he found a faint Divine Consciousness rapidly fading away from the bones into the earth.

He immediately looked towards the sky.

The Alien God wrapped in black cloaks, holding a silver trident, had a pair of eyes like giant green lanterns that turned to look at him as well.

Before He could exert force, Fu Wangchen’s third eye on his forehead opened, sending out a deep divine radiance that confused His perception.

It was at that moment.

Pang Jian clearly felt that, in Fu Wangchen’s forehead, which manifested the third eye, it was all condensed by Divine Consciousness that contained Divine Consciousness!

The peerless genius from the Desolated Terrains, his Spiritual Soul formed in the Sea of Consciousness, maintained the same shape as his body.

However, his soul’s eyes were a collection of Divine Consciousness!

Pang Jian did not know how many more parts of Fu Wangchen’s soul, deeply inside his Sea of Consciousness, were also made of unique Divine Consciousness, but he was sure that the eyes were certainly so.

"Just one Divine Eye possesses such might and wonder, the head, torso, arms, heart cavity. If one had enough special Divine Consciousness to refine every part of the Spiritual Soul, then such a Soul..."

Suddenly, Pang Jian saw his target direction.

He was determined to collect as much Alien God Divine Consciousness as possible before refining his own Soul, to condense more golden Divine Consciousness in the Sea of Consciousness.

He wanted his Spiritual Soul, after successful forging, to be enveloped in golden divine brilliance!

"Wu Yuan! What are you doing?!"

Jiang Chao from Sky Water Swamp, five hundred feet away, turned his head and roared angrily.

The living dead who died were mostly Mo Sect Disciples, but there were also some disciples from his Sky Water Swamp.

Jiang Chao still hoped that those people, after entering the Absolute Sky Forbidden Land, could wake up on their own.

Who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Wu Yuan would kill them all.

"He said that those living dead had been contaminated by the Alien God from the Outer Realm."

Wu Yuan pointed at Pang Jian, who was turning away to leave.

"Just because he said something, you believe it? Wu Yuan, is your brain alright? Dozens of people, all killed by you just because of his one sentence!"

"Once they woke up, they would have been our immediate fighting force, the power we count on to contend with the Alien Tribes!"

"Wu Yuan, can you think a bit before you act?"

"And also..."

"Pang Jian, right? On what basis do you assume that they definitely won’t wake up, that they’ll definitely be contaminated by the Alien God’s power?"

Jiang Chao said, burning with rage.

"Whoosh!"

Pang Jian flew to a creek, grabbed the collar of another living dead from Sky Water Swamp who had been thrown far away, and with a strong throw, he sent them flying towards Jiang Chao.

"Set this man aside and see if he will awake,"

"Thump!"

A slightly overweight Sky Water Swamp man fell beside Jiang Chao into the creek.

Being a member of the Sky Water Swamp and a practitioner of water manipulation, Jiang Chao used his ability to lift the man above the water to prevent him from sinking to the river bed and being washed away, "I want to see if he will wake up just as you said!"

"If he wakes up, if he hasn’t been tainted by the Alien God, then all those killed by Wu Yuan will be on your head."

"Pang Jian, you will pay for your nonsense!"

Jiang Chao shouted angrily.

"Brother Jiang, I’m fine, I’ve awakened,"

The plump man who emerged from the water retracted his Spiritual Power Strong Shield, discarding the Spirit Jade in his palm, and summoned a purple clay teapot from his bracelet.

"Brother Jiang, where are the other brothers and sisters?"

He looked at Jiang Chao with a confused expression.

"Pang Jian! You deserve death!"

Jiang Chao’s face darkened as his gaze locked onto the escaping tall figure, shouting harshly, "Your misjudgment cost us dozens of comrades!"

"Brother Jiang, where are we now?"

"Ah, have we escaped the Mysterious Fog?"

"Have we finally been saved?"

Further away, several other survivors who had not been destroyed by Wu Yuan gradually awoke.

With bewildered and puzzled faces, they were curiously observing their current surroundings, some asking Jiang Chao, others inquiring Wu Yuan, wanting the two to explain what exactly had happened.

"I..."

With a solemn expression, Wu Yuan glanced at the mangled corpses beside him, and even his heart, as solid as rock, began to harbor a sliver of self-doubt.

He doubted whether he had truly made a mistake.

"Achieving little in favorable situations, causing loss in unfavorable ones. Such is the performance of the Tower Master’s Direct Disciple!"

Chen Lushi, having barely escaped from a group of shell-armored Alien Tribes, had her beautiful purple dress torn in several places, accidentally revealing her radiant fair skin around her waist and hips.

She looked coldly first at Pang Jian, then up at Fu Wangchen in the sky.

Activating her third eye and controlling an Ancient God Dharma statue to resist the projection of the Alien God’s Spiritual Soul, Fu Wangchen’s image seemed to grow even more imposing in her eyes.

She had always believed that Fu Wangchen was the owner of the Golden Bee Insect, and the noble person who had led them out of the Mysterious Fog.

"The Direct Disciple chosen by Pu Zhaotian seems to be nothing special, acting on instinct, yet that instinct proves unreliable."

She compared Pang Jian and Fu Wangchen in her mind.

Immediately, she shook her head discreetly, feeling that comparing Pang Jian with Fu Wangchen of the Desolated Terrains was an insult to Fu Wangchen.

"Pang Jian! You owe us an explanation!"

Jiang Chao activated a Secret Skill, causing thousands of sparkling water arrows to fly out from the stream in front of him, impaling a dozen approaching Alien Tribe warriors.

Staring at Pang Jian, he said coldly, "Because of your mistake, dozens of lives have been lost!"

Pang Jian turned his head, glancing at Jiang Chao and the plump Sky Water Swamp disciple beside him.

The man was looking at him with a similarly bewildered expression.

As their eyes met, a trace of chilliness appeared in both.

Pang Jian slightly furrowed his brow and did not speak further, drifting into a forest filled with towering trees.

In midair.

"This man..."

Lu Xiangyi, saved by Zhao Yuanqi, also cast a stern look towards Pang Jian who had floated into the forest, due to Jiang Chao’s accusation, saying with a murderous air, "He should die! His blunder caused the death of so many of our comrades!"

Some of those Wu Yuan had killed had been quite close to her, and she had hoped they would each revive after entering the Absolute Sky Forbidden Land.

Now, they were all turned to minced meat.

"Pang Jian can’t be wrong, the mistake must be Jiang Chao’s!"

Zhou Qingchen, standing at the back of the red gourd, originally thought the beautiful girl from Sky Water Swamp wasn’t too bad, but now annoyingly said, "Sister, I don’t want to listen to her prattle anymore, let’s drop her off."

"Mm."

The gourd lowered slightly, and when it reached Wu Yuan’s position, Zhao Yuanqi kicked Lu Xiangyi off with her foot.

"You!"

Lu Xiangyi, rubbing her round buttocks and baring her teeth, watched the two who were not dressed in Sword Tower attire fly away, unable to even utter a complaint.

After all, they had just saved her life.

"Could Pang Jian be correct?"

With disbelief, she turned her gaze towards the far-off Disciples of the Demon Sect and Sky Water Swamp, surfacing almost simultaneously.
