Chapter Seven: Ambush

  The central African black forest is a vast and desolate land that has never been opened up.

  Hell's Angel Mercenary Corps concentrated one-third of its elite troops in Africa in just a day and a half, with thousands of elite warriors and their accompanying war machines scattered and hidden in the vast jungle, quietly waiting for the time to strike.

  Gu Xie dust disc sat on a giant tree branch with the most dense leaves, quietly operating the Huan Yuan Zhen Dian.

  Laying the foundation, nourishing the cave, changing the easy, washing the marrow, filling the blood, solidifying the body, becoming pregnant with the spirit, containing the origin, three flowers and five energies. These are the nine major realms recorded in the Nine Chapters of the Contained Origin True Classic, and even Gu Xiechen, who has already broken through to the pre-heavenly realm and whose true energy condensation degree has reached 99%, is only just completing the foundation-laying work. A high-rise building starts from the ground, and Gu Xiechen has only just laid the foundation.

  The true energy surges in the meridians, and with each heartbeat, a pure and extreme energy bursts out of the Taoist fetus. The innate fetal energy wraps around these energies and rushes towards the 108 major acupoints throughout the body. Under the driving force of Gu Xian's mind, small whirlpools form at each major acupoint, constantly absorbing extremely fine energies. With spiritual insight, one can see that Gu Xian's major acupoints are emitting a faint glow. If measured with high-precision instruments, it can also be found that the temperature around his acupoints is about one degree higher than body temperature.

  When the aura in the body is surging and about to burst, there is a feeling of floating as if one is about to ascend into the void. This is precisely when the aura has circulated through the eighty-one great cycles within the body, and the small whirlpools at each acupoint have rotated three hundred and sixty times. Gu Xianyun took a deep breath in, his buttock muscles twitching nine times, and his body floated up three feet before silently floating back down to its original position. The aura inside his body was like a hundred rivers flowing into the sea, merging into the dan Tian, with a warm sensation in his lower abdomen, his limbs and joints as soft as cotton, able to twist and turn at will without making the slightest sound.

  The last wisp of aura returned to the dantian, and suddenly all the muscles in his body contracted, a large amount of sweat seeping out from the pores, thick sweat mixed with a hint of murky black air.

  The "Lethal III" combat uniform, standard issue for the Federal Special Forces, quickly wicking away sweat, a strong smell of sweat spreading through the jungle. A large python that was originally hanging from Gu Xiechen's head was startled by the smell of sweat, and it slowly lowered its colorful body towards Gu Xiechen to investigate.

  The ancient evil dust slid down gently against the trunk of the tree, and in just a few breaths, it had reached another large tree hundreds of meters away.

  As a preeminent warrior and also a first-time participant in the war, Gu Xiechen has relatively more freedom. This time his main task is to cooperate with others in battle, so he wanders alone outside the main ambush circle.

  A tiny earpiece in his ear canal transmitted the voice of Qiu Rou Tuan Zhang: "Xie Long, what's going on?"

  He lightly pressed his fingers on the Adam's apple and Gu Xie Chen clearly reported in a low voice, "A forest strangler, I avoided it."

  The bearded captain let out a long sigh: "Damn it, you're really unlucky. Be careful, there are still thirty minutes until their transaction time, don't scare the snake."

  "Understood!" Gu Xiechen ended the call. Inside the fully enclosed helmet of his combat suit, a large amount of data scrolled across the miniature display screen in front of his left eye. The elite troops of the Hell's Angel Mercenary Corps were all ready to go, and a large amount of feedback information was transmitted to everyone within the corps through the encrypted satellite owned by the Hell's Angel Mercenary Corps.

  Time flew by, and when the time point of the transaction provided by Porphyry was about to arrive, a sudden change occurred on the edge of a dark blue lake deep in the Black Forest.

  A hundred-meter-high signal tower rose straight up from the center of the lake, and invisible signals flew high into the air. The trees along the lake shore fell one by one as the signal tower continued to rise, and a uniform gap opened on the ground. The big trees were swallowed by the earth, and smooth steel plates emerged silently from the underground. Soon, a kilometer-long runway appeared in the dense forest.

  A tunnel entrance large enough for heavy tanks to enter and exit rose from the ground, first with two heavy-duty cranes slowly emerging from the tunnel. Accompanied by a dull roar, flatbed trucks carrying heavy containers emerged one after another, all vehicles neatly lined up in a row at the edge of the apron.

  The sky was filled with rolling clouds, and a small spaceship similar to the Porfis, but at least 300 meters in length, descended from high altitude with a dull "whooshing" sound. A thick, dark blue energy shield covered the entire ship, which not only could defend against various heavy weapons attacks, but also absorb all radar waves currently possessed by the Earth Federation. The Roam people's spaceship relied on such an energy shield to recklessly enter and exit the Earth's atmosphere, smuggling and transporting all sorts of contraband.

  The spaceship hovered in the air more than a hundred meters away, and several strong scanning waves instantly swept across an area of nearly 100 square kilometers, and after finding everything normal, the spaceship slowly descended.

  A hissing sound came from inside the spaceship, and the plasma nozzle at the tail of the spaceship slowly extinguished. The energy shield on the surface of the spaceship gradually dissipated with a "crackling" electrical discharge sound. Two white gases were sprayed out from the middle of the spaceship, stirring up a large amount of dust on the ground. A hatch about 50 meters wide slowly opened, and about 200 Roam warriors wearing energy armor and full-energy shields walked out, holding long-handled axes that were five meters long. The upper half of the axe was covered with a layer of purple glow, and electric arcs continued to spray out from the tip of the axe.

  Several mercenaries in white uniforms walked out of the tunnel entrance, and the middle-aged leader with a smile on his face welcomed these Roam warriors.

  "Welcome, welcome, noble guests of the Holm family. Look, we have prepared something for you, the rare earth metal ingots you urgently need, all are high-quality goods with a purity of 99%!"

  Gu Xie dust standing on a large tree trunk looked far away at the direction of the spaceship landing and suddenly heard the command of Qiu Ran team leader.

  "Brothers, let's get started!"

  He pulled out the single-soldier missile launcher from behind his back and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

  A 20-centimeter caliber heavy-duty single-soldier anti-ship missile roared into the sky, and a military satellite belonging to the African Military District of the Earth Federation Army happened to fly by in the air, providing timely and accurate target guidance for Gu Xiechen's launched anti-ship missile.

  A total of 100 missiles of the same specification were launched simultaneously from various parts of the dense forest, leaving a trail of long flames in the air, and all the flames finally converged on the same point.

  The Roam warship, with its energy shield down, was instantly engulfed in flames. The specially designed armor-piercing warhead shattered the ship's two-meter-thick outer armor, and several missiles loaded with high-explosive warheads precisely drilled into the ship's tail. The thick armor on the outside of the ship's engines disintegrated in the intense explosion, triggering a chain reaction that instantly flattened nearly half of the ship along with everything on the landing field. Roam warriors with their energy armor shields fully activated were blown away screaming by the shockwave, while other mercenaries were directly pulverized.

  A massive mushroom cloud rose into the air, and what was left of the battleship was pushed forward by a terrible explosive force for more than 300 meters.

  Gu Xiechen looked at the smoke and fire clouds rising 20 kilometers away, excitedly whistling as he loaded another missile into the launch tube. He hastily aimed at the place where the smoke was rising and launched the missile again. Another long flame tail tore through the air, and a second wave of 100 missiles covered the entire airport in 30 seconds.

  "Awesome!" Gu Xie Cen exclaimed excitedly, throwing his head back and shouting towards the sky.

  Elite soldiers of the Hell's Angel Mercenary Corps, hidden in the jungle, began to advance towards the secret base of the Holy Unicorn. The command of Captain Braided Beard came again: "Attention all fighters, attention all fighters! You launch the first wave of attack, you launch the first wave of attack!"

  Gu Xie dust had just responded with a "got it", when suddenly the commander of the Whirlwind Squad shouted: "Xie Long, Xie Long! A Roam person is heading in your direction, intercept him! Reinforcements will arrive immediately!"

  No time for idle chatter, a piercing blue light suddenly burst forth from the dense forest ahead.

  Almost right in front of him, a three-meter-tall Roam middle-aged man with a thick layer of blue flames rolling all over his body was charging towards Guxiaochen! He discovered Guxiaochen at the first moment and almost simultaneously launched a stormy attack on him!

  It was just a light hum, and hundreds of sharp ice blades condensed from the water vapor in the air in front of Gu Xie Chen suddenly appeared out of thin air. The two-foot-long icy blades had just taken shape when they flew towards Gu Xie Chen like lightning.

  A sharp cry came from the headphones, Gu Xiechen swung his claws and pounced towards the incoming ice blade.

  As soon as Pu Yi came into contact with the old evil dust, he was greatly shocked.

  The indestructible claws collided with the gleaming, cold, and thin ice blades, which were as thin as a sheet of paper, producing a metallic clanging sound. Sparks flew out from the tips of the claws and the point of impact with the ice blades. The claws, which could easily tear through steel plates inches thick, were now stinging in pain from the collision with the thin ice blades. The ice blades came at an extremely fast pace, and Gu Xuan's claws were unable to shake them off. A wave of cold wind swept over him, and hundreds of ice blades had already enveloped his lean body from all directions.

  "Hmmph!"

  A middle-aged man named Roam, who had been rushing over with a look of disdain, let out a cold laugh. The blue flames on his body converged, and his speed suddenly increased. In just an instant, he surpassed the ice blades that were rushing towards him, and like a phantom, he brushed past Gu Xie's dust.

  The capillaries in Gu Xiechen's eyes dilated simultaneously, and his pupils turned a deep crimson. His heart rate increased to over 450 beats per minute in an instant, and Gu Xiechen had never attempted to stimulate the energy within the Dao fetus like this before. A formless aura burst forth from Gu Xiechen's body, and the ice knife that was about to stab into his body suddenly froze in mid-air.

  A pure and tenacious energy, like a heavenly river pouring down, burst out from the heart, and strands of innate Qi gushed out from the Dan Tian, under the control of the ancient evil dust's mind. The Qi wrapped around the energy that burst out from the Dao fetus, just like a locomotive pulling a long train, flowing smoothly along the meridians into both arms.

  The Duelist III combat suit burst open, and Gu Xuan's arms seemed to have a crimson magma churning beneath his skin. The air on the surface of his skin rubbed against each other rapidly, producing a 'crackling' sound, as if a fierce flame had engulfed his arms. His fingers stretched out about an inch, but their color turned even paler, almost to the point of turning greenish-white.

  Silky air burst forth from his fingertips with a sharp whistling sound, explosive energy brewing between his fingers. Gu Xiechen's dual claws spun like windmills at high speed, hundreds of times harder than high-compression alloy steel, the icy blades exploding in a shrill scream into countless ice shards scattering across the sky. The scattered cold air obscured Gu Xiechen's body, the glittering white ice shards still floating in mid-air, his two enormous claws bursting forth from the shroud of cold air and ice shards, dozens of sharp claw marks tearing through the air to grab at Roam's middle-aged body.
