Chapter 841: Chapter 435 Unexpected Changes: Undercover Among the Undercover_2

The Star Gate is like a cleaver, splitting the entire transition node in two. The back section is the entrance, and the front section is the exit, with over two thousand flight paths running smoothly.

Countless spaceships shuttle back and forth, conducting transitions and dockings in an orderly manner under intelligent guidance, with exhaust flames weaving countless trajectories, brilliantly colored.

As a Royal Court ship, it travels through a dedicated special channel.

Kayna selected the coordinates on the screen, her fingers trembling, propulsion on the track, the massive Star Gate was right before her eyes. Until a second after entering, only then did the taut string in her relax slightly.

"Really got him out." She slowly exhaled, somewhat lost in thought.

The Prophet’s voice sounded in her ear, "We’re not completely out of danger yet. Although he says he has no tracking devices on him, the Azure Dragon might have left something on him that even Li Ming doesn’t know about."

Kayna nodded. A few hours later, they jumped out from the Star Gate node and arrived at a new transition node—Krotar.

At this transition node, there was a branch of theirs that provided a series of technological supports, [Wave Frequency Interrupter], [Spiritual Power Interference Cage], [Information State Shield Fortress], and other blocking devices, all applied to Li Ming.

Once confirmed that there were no signal fluctuations emitting from him and that the Information State was completely isolated, they breathed a sigh of relief, ditched the old spaceship, and boarded a new one.

In the cabin, a blue gem vibrated continuously, with a layer of invisible spiritual power membrane falling upon the metal cabin in front of them.

The Prophet’s projected phantom, more dispersed now, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Added another layer of spiritual membrane, now there shouldn’t be any accidents."

"I’ve put him into temporary slumber. Spiritual control requires constant spiritual power consumption, and the mental resilience of an S Level life form is too high, I can barely hold on."

"Now we can notify the Holy Mother, let her prepare to send someone to meet us." The Prophet said, although they received technical support via personnel at the transition node, they didn’t disclose the mission details.

Only until now, ensuring all was foolproof, did they prepare to contact headquarters.

Kayna nodded, took out the smart terminal, and walked around the cabin.

The Prophet stared at the sleeping Li Ming in the metal cabin, a mix of excitement in her heart. With a wave of her hand, the metal cabin stood upright, fitting against the cabin wall.

This harvest was beyond imagination. No wonder the Azure Dragon never mentioned Li Ming’s seeds; there surely was a colossal secret hidden.

She felt her spiritual body heating up. If the True Body knew... Huh? Huh!

The Prophet suddenly snapped to, only to hear a "hiss" sound continuously, as green smoke rose from the blue gem, corroding a large hole.

"You..." the dispersed Prophet’s spiritual body abruptly looked at the retreating Kayna, who was holding a thumb-sized glass bottle.

Moreover, she used blood to carve a strange symbol on her forehead, chanting under her breath.

"Huh, another mishap?" Li Ming felt a mix of surprise, quietly watching.

"What... did you do?" the Prophet asked in shock and anger, without the [Secret Energy Gem], in her current weakened state, she would soon dissipate completely.

Kayna did not respond, only continuously muttering something as a sudden breeze arose in the cabin, and an invisible wave rushed toward Kayna.

Blood-colored ripples arose instantly next to her, as though struck by a massive force, she was hurled backward, crashing into the cabin wall and then slumping to the floor.

"Are you with the Conservatives?" the Prophet finally seemed to realize, her spiritual body almost unable to maintain stability, twisting and dispersing.

Kayna spat a mouthful of fresh blood, glaring hard at the Prophet’s dispersing spiritual body, still not speaking, chanting all the same.

"You..." the Prophet uttered her last word before completely dissipating.

Kayna, seemingly still uneasy, chanted a bit longer before finally relaxing, slumping to the ground, again vomiting a pool of blood, then exhaling a long breath, leaning against the cabin wall with her hair scattered.

Muttering "huh huh," she then slowly elevated her tone, her exquisite face contorting, shoulders shaking, laughter echoing lonely within the cabin, ultimately choked by a dry cough.

"Holy Mother, Prophet, Azure Dragon... I actually gained the greatest benefit from this group..." She got up, staring at the sleeping Li Ming in the metal cabin, "S Level Life Form, truly unbelieavable..."

Then, her expression changed slightly again, "What a pity, my entire line will be uprooted, but it was worth it."

If she could obtain Li Ming’s seeds, there’d still be room for maneuver, possibly avoiding exposure, but there just wasn’t an opportunity.

Among them, no one could subdue the awakened Li Ming.

Thinking so, but she moved swiftly to the console, quickly altering the course coordinates.

"There is... another such good show." Even Li Ming, watching in the spiritual space, was somewhat amazed, this Kayna was an undercover among undercovers.

As for what the Prophet said about the Conservatives, he knew a bit, having learned while investigating Holy Mother Church’s information.

In the purge initiated by Adam, a faction survived, undergoing severe ideological divisions internally.

Some believed that the former method essentially still depended on others, the seemingly intricate power network was actually vulnerable.

Thus, they proposed keeping the power in their own hands. Having suffered life’s inability to self-sustain from Adam’s blows, this idea quickly resonated, gathering considerable strength, becoming mainstream.

That’s the group he had contacted before.

But another faction held firmly to the belief that the defeat was due to a lack of control and misplaced trust in Adam, continuing to live as before.

Over years of development, the two factions became implacable, but generally, the Radical Faction was more powerful, the Conservatives nearly vanished.

"The Conservatives also want a piece of me... a seed, hence they find ways for Kayna to become the main executor..." Li Ming speculated, increasingly speechless, how everyone seemed fixated on his seeds.

"Now that Kayna has backstabbed, she should be taking me to the Conservatives’ nest."

For him, it didn’t quite matter, perhaps even safer; the strength base of the Radical Faction was formidable, but the Conservatives were much weaker.

"Whether Conservative or Radical, as long as there are benefits..."

...

Unbeknownst to the whereabouts of the Holy Mother Church’s old nest, in the deep meditation room, the Prophet hovered in midair, various strange scenes continuously shifting around her.

At a certain moment, her eyes suddenly flew open.

"How dare you!"

Boiling spiritual fluctuations surged violently like shattering glass, surrounding illusory scenes ruptured, water-wave-like ripples penetrated through, permeating the entire nest.

All organizational members covered their ears tightly, faces pained and howling.

"What’s happening?" The Holy Mother appeared soundlessly, her full self shrouded under black veils, slender figure, brows slightly furrowed, rarely seeing the Prophet so out of composure.

The Prophet breathed heavily, the pain transmitted from the spiritual body, like to cleave her whole being in half.

"My spiritual seed was destroyed." The Prophet’s voice was icy, spiritual power was hard to exist outside the body, much less possess its own consciousness.

The spiritual seed is part of cutting the spiritual true body, even if the attached spiritual power dissipates completely, the seed won’t vanish; upon returning, her spiritual body would be entirely complete anew.

"Huh?" The Holy Mother’s gaze narrowed slightly, frowning again, "The Azure Dragon still discovered, trying to hide from him, indeed very difficult."

"It wasn’t the Azure Dragon!" The Prophet grew more furious, "We even brought Li Ming out."

"Brought Li Ming out?" The Holy Mother’s face slightly changed, speaking in a deep voice, "Why bring him out? Our original plan was just to obtain some seeds, I didn’t want to go into an all-out war with the Azure Dragon."

"An accident occurred..." The Prophet’s expression grew increasingly unpleasant, just a step short, just a step short, and it was ruined.

"What accident?" The Holy Mother’s brow furrowed.
