Told You I Can Turn Back Time

Chapter 322: Chapter 256: Whirlwind (39)

Just as when he had broken through to the first and second legacies, Lin Xing woke up with many memories in his mind after the breakthrough to the third legacy.

Most of these memories were related to enhancing strength, such as the training steps during the third legacy period, methods to boost combat capability, training goals, and even the choice for the fourth legacy.

The content was quite complex, and Lin Xing was unable to fully comprehend it in a short time.

But at least the first step, he had understood.

At this moment, the trace of immortal qi in his sea of consciousness was like a faint glimmer of firefly light, appearing exceedingly dim and weak.

And the first step in the cultivation of an Independent Immortal was to nurture this sliver of immortal qi.

Sensing this thread of immortal qi, Lin Xing decided in his mind to set the current level of immortal qi at 1.0.

As for the method of cultivating this thread of immortal qi, it was similar to how he had previously absorbed the heavenly secrets of the Sword Hero: by being a true Independent Immortal.

In Lin Xing’s mind, various requirements of an Independent Immortal emerged, "No sect, no position, no fame, no master, no restraints, no obstacles, free and unfettered..."

"The more these requirements are met, the easier it would be for the immortal qi to grow stronger."

Little Lin Xing remarked from the side, "No restraints, free and unfettered; this really suits us perfectly."

But Lin Xing suddenly lifted his head and looked towards Bai Yiyi and the others.

As he had completed this breakthrough, his focus shifted away from his body, and his spiritual senses that were used for perceiving his surroundings gradually opened up.

In this process, he slowly realized that the expressions of many staff members and soldiers around him seemed somewhat off, and the information they were reading on their mobile phones and computers puzzled him.

At this very moment, Lin Xing looked in Bai Yiyi’s direction and asked with confusion, "Master Bai, has something happened?"

A moment later, Lin Xing listened to Bai Yiyi’s account amid browsing through a series of news articles on his phone.

"Utterly Cruel! Bai Yiyi Unleashes a Massacre in New Ke City!"

"This is the most severe terrorist attack in history!"

"Hundreds of thousands of New Ke City residents turn into monsters, government claims military rescue operations are underway!"

"Warning to all citizens to stay home, do not approach anyone acting abnormally..."

Lin Xing watched a blurry video on his phone, which appeared to be a recorded live stream from some live streaming platform.

The angle of the video seemed to be filmed from the window of a building, with the camera continuously searching for something in the sky, zooming in and out.

Finally, a girl in black appeared in the camera’s view.

Looking at the camera’s shaking, one could sense the nervousness and fear of the person filming.

Through the camera, it could be seen that the black-clad girl in mid-air waved her hand, and black sword beams shot out like lightning, weaving through the crowd on the street.

The camera quickly focused on the crowd on the street, where a great number of people were transformed into monsters, and the entire street had turned into a veritable hell on earth.

The next moment, it seemed the owner of the phone heard something, spun around with the camera, and saw a little girl stepping into the room from the outside.

The little girl looked up towards the sky, her mouth gaping open as if it had been torn apart, expanding to a full 180 degrees.

Tendrils extended from her mouth, and with a flurry of afterimages, the camera began to shake violently, eventually dropping to the ground, pointing to a wall.

In this moment from the camera’s perspective, nothing more could be seen of what was happening, only cries and screams could be heard continuously echoing.

Then, a splash of blood splattered onto the wall in front of the camera, and the entire video came to an abrupt end.

Upon learning of the current situation in New Ke City, a strong anger rose within Lin Xing, "Again the wicked beings of Mirror World, truly deserving of death."

...

Inside the command center of White Eagle Country.

Everything seemed to have devolved into chaos.

Although a large amount of combat power was still being continuously dispatched toward New Ke City.

The commanders and intelligence personnel here were almost completely unable to comprehend the various extraordinary phenomena currently occurring in New Ke City.

So, their first thought was to consult Xingxiao and the powerful experts from the major sects, who, as the top combat forces of Mirror World, were the most authoritative in explaining superpowers.

Thus, in the conference room, screens began to display live broadcasts featuring the high-ranking officials from White Eagle Country and the powerful experts from Mirror World.

At this moment, both parties had convened an urgent online meeting to discuss solutions to the current situation in New Ke City.

The Great Bright Buddha said gravely, "The situation in New Kexing is known in the Mirror World as a cursed land, but even I have never seen such an extensive and severe cursed land."

"If the situation continues to deteriorate, I fear that the millions of people in the entire city might become evil spirits, and in such a case... the whole world would face an apocalypse."

An elderly man from White Eagle Country asked, "Isn’t there any way to stop that woman? Could the powerful warriors from the Mirror World be sent to assassinate her and completely eradicate her to prevent the worsening of the situation? We will spare no effort in providing support."

The backdrop behind the Divine Dragon Gang Leader was a large French window, beyond which lay New Ke City, already plunged into chaos.

By the side of the Divine Dragon Gang Leader, a celestial gate was gradually opening.

At the same time, several folding doors had been placed around him, clearly, the Divine Dragon Gang Leader had arranged for his men to cyclically open the celestial gate for him so that he could evacuate from New Ke City at any time.

He just snorted coldly into the camera and said, "It’s possible, but God knows how many experts would die. The only solution I see now is to destroy the entire New Ke City."

As he spoke, he had already started laughing, "Doesn’t your country possess many powerful weapons? Just bomb the entire city to rubble, and that will solve the crisis."

Another military elder from White Eagle Country angrily said, "Do you realize what you’re saying? There are fifteen million people in New Ke City!"

The Second Elder of Zhou Tian Sect replied, "If the situation deteriorates further, it won’t be fifteen million people, but fifteen million monsters. These monsters would spread from all directions, in every conceivable and inconceivable way, and infest the whole world."

"The power they carry might even transform more people into evil spirits."

"Indecision at this point could only lead to chaos; you need to be more decisive."

The top officials of White Eagle Country were gnashing their teeth as they looked at these peak experts from the Mirror World, noting their calm and indifferent expressions that seemed to disregard the disaster happening before them.

Just then, Yun Hezi of Taihe Sect, who had been silent up until now, coughed and said, "The situation in New Ke City is indeed dire; only by uniting the forces of our two realms can we possibly resolve this apocalyptic crisis."

"I think we need a deeper level of cooperation; for example, to tackle this crisis, we need greater freedom in the possession of arms, and we don’t wish to be affected by contemporary laws during this battle..."

Hearing the various demands raised by the Taihe Sect, the officials from White Eagle Country gasped in shock.

They had suspected that these experts from the Mirror World were driving a hard bargain, but they hadn’t anticipated their demands to be so steep.

Freedom to bear arms, extrajudicial powers, autonomous zones...

The Divine Dragon Gang Leader laughed heartily and urged, "I advise you all to decide quickly."

He looked at the evil aura swirling in the sky and said, "I’m guessing this isn’t even its final form. If it continues to operate this way, we might not even be able to resolve it when the time comes."

As the two sides of the conference engaged in a heated debate, with the high-ranking officials of White Eagle Country looking grim, more news came through.

"Xia Country is requesting a call; they say they will send Lin Xing to New Ke City to assist, and arrange a celestial gate for him."

One of the military elders from White Eagle Country said in annoyance, "What good would he do now? Ignore them..."

"Well, they say Lin Xing has already arrived."

The military elder frowned, "The hotel where he was staying got burned down; how did he get here?"

"Xia Country’s delegation had retreated to the outskirts and used a temporary folding door to bring him over. He should now be approximately 5.6 kilometers outside of New Kexing..."

"Wait, the guard forces at the blockade saw something moving at high speed; it’s Lin Xing. He’s breached the third blockade."

"The second blockade has spotted him... No, he’s already broken through the first blockade... and he’s still accelerating..."

"He’s passed the New Ke Bridge... too fast..."

"The satellite has lost him."
