In fact, Ling Yun did not have the same blood sacrifice physical condition as Mochizuki Nami. Although he possessed the data to copy the Blood Sacrifice Technique, it was impossible for him to perform the technique. However, things were different now. Since emerging from the barrier, Ling Yun had become adept at using the Hand of God. Although he could not yet change his entire genetic makeup, having the same physique to perform the Blood Sacrifice Technique was not a problem. His strength had advanced to that of a super strongman, and although the Blood Sacrifice Technique he performed was not yet fully refined, its power was much greater than that of Mochizuki Nami.
If Ling Yun wanted, he could use the Blood Sacrifice Delusion Technique to kill all the superhumans except Loki. The terrifying thing about the Blood Sacrifice Delusion Technique is that even the most powerful superhumans trapped in the delusion barrier cannot escape. All the initiative is in the hands of the caster, who can use the high-dimensional delusion to kill everyone at once.
However, doing so would create a life-or-death feud with the Superpower Bureau. While it might feel satisfying, the cleanup would be difficult. Given the Superpower Bureau's methods, they would eventually discover Ling Yun's existence, which would implicate not only Ling Yun but the entire Superpower Headquarters.
Ling Yun certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to do that. The Superpower Bureau and the Superpower Headquarters are actually quite similar, except that they belong to the official systems of two different countries. They are both enemies and friends, strategic partners and strategic guards. If they were to fight each other, they would definitely suffer heavy losses, and at the very least, other superpower organizations such as the Sky Eye Society would be able to take advantage of the situation.
Ling Yun is now a full-time employee of the Superpower Headquarters, so he naturally wouldn't do such a thing. However, Xia Lan's matter is inextricably linked to the US Superpower Bureau. Even if it's a frame-up, it must have been authorized by someone. The Superpower Headquarters won't kill innocent people indiscriminately, but the Superpower Bureau must provide a credible explanation.
It was time to quit while he was ahead. The instant he used the Blood Sacrifice Technique, Ling Yun thought of using this method to find the exit of the main control barrier. If he searched for it himself, it would take a long time, not to mention he would have to find a way to get rid of the pursuit of two super strong people and the entanglement of a group of superpowered people. It would be better to let them lead the way, which would save him the effort.
"The background of the barrier is changing. Is something wrong?" While Hans was putting a lot of effort into rescuing Loki, Xia Lan naturally saw the change in the background of the main control base. When she saw the dark background suddenly turn blood red, she couldn't help but feel a tightness in her heart.
"They are rescuing the people trapped in my illusion barrier. The barrier has the function of helping to break illusions," Ling Yun explained. "However, only experts of the same level can rescue them. My illusions are not so easy to break."
"An illusion that even a super strong expert can't break?" Xia Lan said in surprise. "What is it? Ling Yun, you're becoming more and more mysterious."
"Hehe..." Ling Yun chuckled silently, offering no explanation. In fact, he didn't know how to explain it either. Should he tell Xia Lan that he had learned the Blood Sacrifice Art? How could he explain a body with the talent for blood sacrifice? That would also bring up the Hand of God, but that was Ling Yun's biggest secret, something he absolutely couldn't reveal. Although Xia Lan was a trustworthy and extremely loyal comrade, she wasn't quite that kind of friend.
The crimson space stretched endlessly, but a bright light the size of a washbasin suddenly appeared not far ahead, as if a hole had appeared in space. Ling Yun felt a chill in his heart. The panoramic view immediately formed an upward angle near the light, and the Eye of Illusion easily penetrated the area where the light was located. Outside, there was an equally endless desert and wilderness, but under the bright stars.
"We've reached the exit. We need to speed things up," Ling Yun said calmly, but his heart suddenly began to race. For some reason, with escape imminent, he suddenly felt a vague sense of unease.
"There are two virtual channels behind us that are very fast," Xia Lan said suddenly, glancing back.
"Hmm, they won't be able to find us for now." The moment the Blood Sacrifice Illusion Barrier collapsed, Ling Yun sensed that Loki and Hans would definitely catch up after escaping. Although they were fast, they probably wouldn't be able to catch up by the time Ling Yun reached the exit. Moreover, Ling Yun's virtual passage was always mixed in with the many superhumans. Even if they could intercept it, they wouldn't be able to identify which one was the target for a while. The virtual passage had been disguised by Ling Yun, and the mental field vibration was the frequency of some unlucky exiled superhuman. It was no longer possible to tell who was controlling the virtual passage. If necessary, Ling Yun could even use his replication ability to break all the virtual passage vibrations, making the scene extremely chaotic and complicated.
However, as the Blood Sacrifice Magic Barrier shattered, the superhumans who were in fear gradually came to their senses. Although they did not know what had happened, most of the virtual channels began to slow down or even stop. They then asked what had happened through their communicators.
When the two deputy directors saw the group suddenly stop and heard a jumble of questions coming from the communicator, they immediately realized that the blood sacrifice spell that had trapped everyone had been lifted. They quickly ordered everyone to stop where they were and undergo individual scrutiny by the two super-strong individuals. Hans was ready to close the virtual channel at any time, so that everyone would be able to show their true appearance, and the target enemies would have no way to hide.
While fully conscious, the group remained highly trained elites. Upon the unanimous command of the two leaders, the massive formation immediately ceased its rapid advance. However, a single virtual passage, seemingly oblivious to the deputy director's orders, continued its flight towards the exit at its maximum speed.
"Grab him!" Hans and Loki roared almost without thinking, taking the lead in chasing after him through their virtual portals. There was only one virtual portal that could disobey their orders: the target enemy.
However, the target was less than a few hundred meters away from the exit, a distance that could be covered in an instant. Seeing that the enemy was about to escape through the exit, Hans and Loki were frantic with worry.
An incredibly powerful aura suddenly enveloped the entire exit, instantly halting the rapid movement of the target virtual passage. Then, the eerie blue light of the virtual passage slowly disappeared, revealing five figures standing at the exit.
"Chief!" Hans and Loki exclaimed in surprise.
Chapter 379 Please Don't Die
Ling Yun's heart tightened. The five people appeared without warning, almost at the same time he had just discovered them with his Eye of Illusion. Moreover, their undisguised powerful aura shot straight over. Before their mental energy field could even be released, the tangible silver light had already made Ling Yun and Xia Lan's bodies freeze.
One of them slightly raised his hand, and an invisible force transmitted through it, instantly sweeping across every part of the space. The virtual passage that had been concealing the passage began to slowly dissolve.
At the same time, not only Ling Yun and Xia Lan's virtual passages were dissolving, but all the virtual passages were slowly disappearing, revealing one bewildered figure after another. The blood-red background was quietly changing; the sky brightened again, and the black parts transformed into flat, straight earth. The exit where the five people were located also turned into a tall gate of light.
"Damn it!" Ling Yun cursed inwardly. This was too coincidental. Even without using the Eye of Illusion, he could tell from the undisguised aura of the five people that four of them were super strong, and even the weakest one was a top mid-level expert at the rank of colonel.
The aura emanating from the four super-strong individuals surpassed that of Loki and Hans, who were pursuing them. Even a fool would know that the top experts from the Superpower Bureau had gathered in one place, and he had unwittingly been surrounded. At this moment, trying to break through the blockade of four super-strong individuals was an impossible task.
Ling Yun gritted his teeth, and with a flash of golden light from his Eye of Illusion, he instantly concealed the two figures and sped away along the door. If the two super strong individuals who had caught up with him surrounded him, even with his extraordinary abilities, he would not be able to escape from the encirclement of six super strong individuals, not to mention Xia Lan, whose strength was far inferior to his own.
They had to escape before the enemy could surround them and before these powerful individuals could react, otherwise they would be in a very passive position. Not only would they fail to rescue Xia Lan, but they would also be trapped. Moreover, having spied on so many of their secrets, the Supernatural Abilities Bureau would never let them go.
Ling Yun concealed his figure before the virtual passage dissipated. The Eye of Illusion was extremely powerful, not only concealing his and Xia Lan's figures but also hiding their energy fluctuations. Even a super strong person would find it difficult to detect any trace of the two without using their full perception.
The exit was just a few dozen meters ahead, and from where they stood, they could even see the dark sky outside. It turned out that night had already fallen. For Ling Yun and Xia Lan, such a short distance was only a moment's time, but facing five super strong people who seemed completely unaware, even someone as shocked as Ling Yun couldn't help but feel his heart in his throat.
The leader of the five suddenly turned slightly, a smile appearing on his weathered and profound face: "A very beautiful concealment technique. I didn't expect the Bureau of Supernatural Abilities to be honored today with two distinguished guests. Since you're here, why rush to leave?"
He spoke casually, but as he turned slightly, an incomparably powerful aura suddenly blocked Ling Yun and Xia Lan's path. This was not a real attack, but merely a release of pressure. However, even a mid-level expert would feel intimidated by this overwhelming pressure.
Xia Lan was startled, and her steps faltered. Although she had witnessed the strength of an extremely powerful expert, she had never truly faced such overwhelming pressure, and instinctively felt fear. Fortunately, Ling Yun held her small hand the whole time, transmitting a warm and dry spiritual energy field to her, so Xia Lan was not too panicked.
Ling Yun's heart sank. He sensed the same aura as Tang Tiejin from the leading figure. Without guessing, it must be McWeish, the director of the Superpower Bureau, one of the strongest people in the world. The others should be several deputy directors of the Superpower Bureau. It would be extremely difficult to escape from such a terrifying powerhouse.
However, Ling Yun was no longer the naive young man he once was. Since leaving the Superpower Headquarters, the boy's strength had grown rapidly, and even when facing the strongest beings in the world, Ling Yun showed no panic. After witnessing the world-destroying power of the World Spirit and the Heavenly Eye in the underwater barrier, even the strongest superpowered individuals could not arouse Ling Yun's awe.
Ling Yun didn't stop running, and his mental energy field didn't materialize. However, the aura released by Weish suddenly vanished completely, as if it had been neutralized by the same force. Xia Lan straightened her body, and although she was running at full speed and in a concealed state, she couldn't help but glance at Ling Yun with surprise. As the team leader of the Supernatural Abilities Headquarters, she naturally knew who she was facing. Her heart had already turned cold, but she hadn't expected Ling Yun to possess such power, even disregarding the director's dignity without any restraint.
Wish let out a soft "hmm," seemingly surprised by Ling Yun's actions. He had only made a slight attempt to probe, but the two guests were not impressed and didn't even want to say a word to him. Although he didn't know what had happened, Wish was a man of his caliber; a quick glance was enough for him to get a general idea. In the distance, the figures of Loki and Hans were becoming clearer. Under no circumstances could he let these two people, who were so eager to leave, go.
However, Wesh was quite surprised by the two's methods of concealment. Invisibility is nothing special; any superhuman can do it. But to be invisible while also concealing energy fluctuations is truly astonishing. Even with Wesh's extensive knowledge, he had never seen such a powerful supernatural ability before; it was practically complete invisibility.
If it weren't for Wish's naturally keen senses, far exceeding those of ordinary people, he really wouldn't have been able to see through Ling Yun and Xia Lan. Even so, all he could see were two blurry shadows, which could be vaguely discerned as a man and a woman, but their physical features and faces were impossible to make out clearly.
None of the deputy directors noticed Ling Yun. When Wisch suddenly intervened, they were all taken aback. In the blink of an eye, Loki and Hans arrived, their anxious voices immediately ringing out: "A target enemy has learned of and copied the cloning secrets of the underground base. We must capture them!"
All the super-strong individuals were shocked. Someone actually dared to break into the underground base and copy the secrets of the cloned superhumans? What a huge deal this was! And who would be so bold as to spy on the world's largest superhuman organization? In addition to their shock, everyone felt boundless anger. Although they couldn't see Ling Yun and Xia Lan, Weish's actions undoubtedly said it all.
The four powerful figures immediately sprang into action, their mental energy fields flashing and connecting to block the entire passageway. Ling Yun sighed. He had thought he could take advantage of the moment when everyone was stunned to escape, but now it seemed that it was impossible not to force his way out. The opponents were all super strong, and their reactions were incredibly fast.
"Follow my mental field closely, don't fall behind, I'm going to use all my strength." Ling Yun's voice suddenly rang in Xia Lan's mind. This was a silent transmission of mental field, which even a super strong person could not know. Xia Lan knew that her strength was not enough, and if she resisted at this moment, she would only cause trouble for Ling Yun. So she remained calm and simply nodded silently.
Clap clap clap clap!
A crisp sound suddenly rang out in the air. Apart from Wesh, the four powerful figures guarding the door all groaned and involuntarily took a step back. As they retreated, dense silver light spots slowly emerged. The barrier space distorted imperceptibly, and several strange spatial ripples silently flew towards the four from behind after the sound.
Ling Yun moved with lightning speed, his concealed figure flashing through the air like a wall of people. Since those blocking the entrance were all super strong individuals, and the strongest one was watching him intently, he couldn't hesitate for a moment. Therefore, he immediately used all his strength, firing five mental energy field shockwaves at the five people almost simultaneously. Shockwaves are a kind of technique that is more suitable for group attacks. The super strong individuals were caught off guard. Although they were even stronger than Ling Yun, they were still forced back a step in their haste.
The weakest of the officers was even worse off, staggering back several steps in a sorry state. Before his mental energy field could reach its full potential, it was forcibly suppressed by the storm of attacks. The silver light dimmed rapidly at a visible speed, and his telekinetic power was forcibly suppressed into his body by Ling Yun's overwhelming strength, making it impossible for him to immediately regain it.
Ling Yun had been waiting for this opening. Of the five people present, this was the weakest, Yi Huan, because Ling Yun's strongest shockwave was also aimed at him. Sure enough, the opponent retreated a few steps, immediately revealing a sliver of space. Ling Yun's expression turned serious, and he suddenly turned and pushed, forcing the helpless Xia Lan out through the gap with all his might.
With a hum, it felt as if an invisible weight had slammed through the air.
