Wilderness: I Tame Beasts to Survive

Chapter 387: Chapter 269: Rescue

A visible sonic wave swept downward.

Some of the humans who had yet to be rescued, even those within the protective Energy Shields of Soul Beasts, were caught in the sonic wave and instantly exploded into a rain of gore.

Teacher Zhou took a deep breath, his expression grim as he looked up at the sky.

Between the white mist and the clouds, several enormous Flying Armor appeared, pulsing with a brilliant green light.

"The Cyan God Armor... This is a trap." Dean Wu and the others wore grave expressions.

He quickly made a hand signal, motioning for everyone to abandon the rescue and regroup.

Qing Fan’s expression, however, was even more somber.

He stared intently at the tall figure on the back of a giant beetle, his words filled with deep apprehension. "Cang Fei... the Cyan God Armor Tribe’s Seventh Elder. He has a contract with a Monarch Level Soul Beast and is a master with Tier Four Spiritual Power."

"We’re in trouble... Dean Wu, do you have any way to contact Han—"

Before he could finish, another thunderous roar erupted from the sky.

"Hahaha! Look what we have here! That fellow Qing Dou’s eldest son. We’ve caught a big one!"

As Qing Fan looked up to glare at Cang Fei, a towering figure on the back of a Cyan God Armor beetle fixed his gaze upon him. The giant stood at least four meters tall, built like an iron tower, with a face full of a green beard. His hair was tied into a massive bun at the back of his head that resembled a bulging sack. At that very moment, he turned his large, lantern-like eyes toward Qing Fan.

"I wonder what price the Dragon Blood Race will pay to ransom you back?"

As Cang Fei spoke, his eyes blazed with an intense cyan flame. He raised his fists, each larger than a clay pot, and smashed them out to his sides.

Countless cyan threads shot out from his fists, rapidly weaving into a net-like Barrier that covered a radius of several kilometers.

"For colluding with an unknown Alien Race, your crimes are compounded! In the name of the First Ancestor, I sentence you to imprisonment!"

His deafening roar echoed across the sky.

BOOM!

A terrifying Power Storm descended from the heavens. Its tangible shockwaves annihilated all living creatures except for the humans and the Dragon Blood People!

The ground caved in, and the entire cruise ship instantly shattered, sending passengers who had been hiding in their cabins plummeting downward.

Fei Lie and the numerous Insect Masters, Insect Servants, and insects of the Red Centipede Tribe, who had been hovering nearby on their mounts, were torn to shreds by the terrifying Power before they could even utter a word!

"Dammit, did those bastards from the Red Centipede Tribe sell us out, or did our intel leak?" Teacher Zhou muttered, snatching a few innocent humans from falling to their doom.

"I have no way to contact Han Ning. I always went through Fei Lie..." Dean Wu glanced at the bloody mist that was once Fei Lie, his expression growing strangely calm. He gazed at the sky, now stained cyan, and spoke with conviction.

"Han Ning is definitely on his way. We need to figure out how to stall these people for as long as possible."

Just then, Qing Fan pulled a cyan Dragon Scale from a pouch at his waist and tried to infuse it with Spiritual Energy.

The Dragon Scale instantly transformed into a streak of brilliant light and shot into the distance at the speed of light.

But a second later, it was violently repelled by the cyan net, shattering into a shower of glittering motes.

"He’s sealed all the Spiritual Energy channels in the area. We can’t get a message out. The odds are against us this time."

Qing Fan sighed softly and turned to an unremarkable-looking member of the Dragon Blood People beside him.

"Qing Yue, how long can you hold him off?"

"Young Master... the Cyan God Armor Seventh Elder’s Main Combat Soul Beast is at least a Middle Monarch... I’m afraid I wouldn’t even last a second..."

The member of the Dragon Blood People called Qing Yue had the head of a pale green lizard. Below it, her otherwise human-form torso had a full chest, and her voice was crisp and melodious. Surprisingly, she was a female Beast Master.

...

’Master... Master... we’ve been ambushed! We’re surrounded by the Cyan God Armor Seventh Elder... Cang Fei...’

「Far on the other side of the Insect Continent」

Han Ning, who was rushing toward the cruise ship’s landing site, suddenly received a fragmented Spiritual Power message from Fei Lie.

The disjointed spiritual message flashed through his mind. Immediately after, the feedback from the Subordinate Insect parasitizing Fei Lie’s brain vanished.

’He’s dead...’

Seeing this, Han Ning’s face darkened instantly. He quickly contacted Cang Yu and asked.

"What is Cang Fei’s Power?"

"His Main Combat Soul Beast is a Middle Monarch. He also has two new Monarchs and three Upper Lords," Cang Yu explained. "In his earlier years, Cang Fei’s power ranked seventh among the elders. However, his Main Combat Soul Beast was severely injured in a battle with the Abyssal Race, causing his overall power to drop. Otherwise, his Main Combat Soul Beast would be at least Upper Monarch Level, nearly reaching the pinnacle of power on this continent."

’The Seventh Elder... He’s a real powerhouse,’ Han Ning thought. ’I’m afraid even if I sent Cang Yu, he would be killed in a single blow.’

With this in mind, Han Ning looked at Yin Yi beside him and asked softly, "Yin Yi, how much further until we’re in range to use Instant Teleportation to get to the Jade Forest?"

He had actually prepared a contingency plan for just such an emergency.

The plan was for Yin Yi to create a seed and plant it in the Jade Forest, which was the humans’ current main base of operations.

If any emergency occurred, Yin Yi could use that seed to teleport to that location, as long as they were within range.

However, Instant Teleportation wasn’t omnipotent. Due to Yin Yi’s currently limited Spiritual Energy, it could only work over a certain distance.

At the moment, they had just flown out of the Grudge Abyss. They were at least 5,000 kilometers from the cruise ship’s location and more than 2,000 kilometers from the nearest entrance to the Jade Forest.

To make the best possible time, he was already riding on Qingyao’s back, flying at Monarch Level speed.
