Chapter 52: Further Advanced Combat Awareness

Wen Rui would not easily put himself in danger. It is safer for him to hide in a safe area and watch the surveillance. Previously, in order to lower He Lingyun's favorability, his words were very heartless, but in fact, he had already arranged the rescue force. Even if He Lingyun did not come to rescue, the Ultron robot would carry out the rescue operation according to the plan.

If the rescue by the Ultron robots fails, Wen Rui has also prepared the "Demon God General" powerful armor and can intervene at any time.

Over the past hundred years, the death rate of Lishan disciples has dropped a lot. On the one hand, there is support from the Lishan counter opened by Wenrui. The sisters no longer have to risk going down the mountain to collect resources for cultivation, and the number of sisters who go down the mountain to die has been greatly reduced.

On the other hand, the production capacity of Wen Rui's robot factory has increased, and the Ultron robot army has begun to take shape. His strength allows him to carry out rescue operations for his sister in distress, unlike before when he was not strong enough to rush there and could only collect the bodies.

However, there are also a few junior sisters whose suicidal behaviors are too abstract, or they are too far away from Lishan Immortal Sect when the accident happens. Even if Wen Rui wants to save them, he is unable to do so. In that case, he can only respect the fate of others, let go of the complex of helping others, and laugh it off.

From the electronic eyes of the bionic insect, Wen Rui saw the scene in the cave space.

There is a ball of light floating in the cave, which is a small spell called "Illusion Light". The brightness of the ball of light is much higher than that of a torch, illuminating the dark cave. However, the brightness is still insufficient for the huge cave space, and there are still large shadows in the distance and on the top of the cave.

The dark-skinned apprentice sister Niu Xiruo was in a bad condition. Her palm was pierced by a dagger and nailed to the wall of the cave. She looked terrified and in pain. She seemed to have internal injuries, including to her lungs, and blood foam kept gushing out of the corners of her mouth.

There were four people in the cave, three men and one woman. Two of them surrounded her, and one was using a knife to laboriously cut her Taoist robe.

"This broken knife is too blunt. It can't even cut through the gauze!" The man who was cutting the Taoist robe complained after trying for several times without any progress.

"Can you hurry up? This place is too close to Lishan Mountain. We can't delay any longer." Another person urged.

"You can't blame me. There's something strange about her Taoist robe. I never thought that the sect uniform of the Lishan Immortal Sect is actually a magical weapon. Its toughness is comparable to that of a low-level spiritual weapon!"

"Get out of the way. I'll use my flying sword to cut you off. I don't believe I can't cut you off!"

"No, we took such a big risk just for her skin. It's a top-grade material that can ward off water and poison. The robes made of it are at least at the spiritual treasure level and worth millions of spiritual stones! You cut her skin with your sword without any care and damage it. Can you afford the loss?"

The two male monks were arguing non-stop. On the other side of the cave, a female monk was lying in the arms of a male monk and said in a tender voice, "Brother Luo, look at those two idiots. They can't even do such a small thing. They are really useless. Unlike me, I feel sorry for my brother the most..."

The monk who was entangled with her limbs snorted coldly: "Two pieces of trash, I'll give you another stick of incense time. If you still can't peel off your skin, I will peel your skin off!"

The female monk was naked and blushing, and she was entangled with another man in front of two male fellows. She was not ashamed at all and said with a giggle, "Brother, that witch is quite pretty, especially her skin. It's a little dark, but it's smooth and tender. But it's a pity to kill the best cauldron like this. Don't you want to try it?"

"Stupid and cheap bitch, do you really not know or are you pretending to be stupid to hurt me?"

The male monk slapped her in the face and scolded her coldly, "That's a demon girl in the form of a newt. The older the newt is, the more toxic its body fluids are! If I wasn't afraid of being poisoned, would I let you, a low-class person who has been played with by others, serve me?"

The four cultivators present were all human. The one named Luo had the highest cultivation level, having reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, while the other three were at the high stage of the Golden Core.

Bionic insects also have the ability to collect sounds. Wen Rui frowned as he looked at the ugly scene of synchronized sound and picture, but he was not surprised. He just felt extremely disgusted in his heart and looked at them as if they were dead people.

It's not that all the cultivators in the world today are so despicable. In Wen Rui's opinion, if all the disciples of the three religions, Western, Human, and Chan, were taken out and shot, there would definitely be some innocent people. But if every one of them was shot, there would definitely be some who escaped. It is not surprising that there are bad people among the disciples.

What is strange is that in today's world of cultivation there exists an immortal cultivation sect where all the members are evil from top to bottom, yet this immortal cultivation sect is recognized by the three religions and claims to be the righteous one.

This is the Dingguang Immortal Sect, whose founder is the number one eunuch in the Three Realms, the Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal. This guy is in the Jiejiao Sect but his heart is in the Chan Sect. He plays tricks in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, steals the Six Soul Banner and rebels, betrays his master and ancestors, and wants to live freely.

Given the character of Chang'er Dingguangxian, even though he had made great contributions by stealing the banner in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation and turning the situation around, Yuanshi Tianzun was ashamed to accept him into the Chan Sect. It was the Western Sect, which took in all the rotten things, that took this piece of garbage back.

What's even more shameless is that after this guy sneaked into the Western religion, he wanted to make progress so much that in order to show his own value, he figured out a set of joy Zen, targeting the position of Yue Lao in the Heavenly Palace. He tried to use the joy Zen method to attain Buddhahood and rob the fortune of the priesthood of "granting heirs and children."

Now, Chang'er Dingguangxian has not yet attained Buddhahood, but it is also the critical period for attaining Buddhahood. Once the human race multiplies, the population grows greatly, the great aspirations are achieved, and great merits are bestowed, then becoming a Buddha is just around the corner.

With such a sect ancestor setting an example, and with the leaders following suit, the Dingguang Immortal Sect is only clean with the two stone Pixiu at the gate.

Naturally, such a filthy sect was not welcomed by both Chan and Ren religions. However, because Chang'er Dingguang Immortal had not yet become a Buddha, the Dingguang Immortal Sect could not be renamed Dingguang Zen Temple. They had no choice but to acknowledge its legitimacy as an orthodox Taoist sect, and did not include it in the elimination list when they were eliminating demons and defending Taoism.

The most disgusting thing is that the Chan and Ren sects announced to the outside world that the Dingguang Immortal Sect is still a sect of the Jie sect, using this as an example to prove that the Jie sect is harboring filth, defying heaven and morality, and deserves to be destroyed.

Continuing to switch to the bionic insect perspective, Wen Rui finally found He Lingyun's figure after searching for a long time in the surveillance screen. She was hanging upside down on the top of the cave like a big bat, with a pair of crane claws tightly grasping the stalactites, and her arms transformed into wings again, spreading her wings to wrap her body. If you don't look carefully, it really looks like a thick stalactite column. The four people below didn't realize that she had ambushed right above their heads and waited for an opportunity to move.

Wen Rui couldn't help but admire her for being so smart and coming up with such a wonderful hiding plan.

First, he was in a visual and thinking blind spot; second, he cleverly used his own conditions, first using his untransformed claws to fix himself, and then using a pair of wings to block the divine sense from detecting him. It would be difficult for Wen Rui to make such an appropriate response in such a short time.

A cultivator's spiritual awareness detection is not a passive skill. It requires intense concentration to actively activate it. The detection process is laborious and can be considered a chore.

The monks set up the camp and assigned sentries to take turns on duty so that everyone could be responsible for their own tasks, and the rest of the people could relax and recuperate.

Because they were in a cave, their spiritual sense would be blocked by the rock walls. The four people in the cave did not use their spiritual sense to explore. Perhaps they believed that the sentry at the door would report any abnormality in time, so they all relaxed their vigilance and gave He Lingyun an opportunity to take advantage of.

He Lingyun did not move for a long time, and continued to lurk as quietly as a chicken, waiting for the opportunity.

Wen Rui could understand it. Among the four people below, three were at a similar level to her, and one was at a level far beyond hers. It was already not easy to fight against many alone, let alone challenging people of a higher level.

The cramped terrain of the cave was not suitable for sword cultivators who loved to win with lightness and agility. He Lingyun could not even use his trump card sword 20 to help in the battle, and his disadvantage was infinitely magnified.

If it were Wen Rui, he would have no choice but to make a strategic shift and would never take such a risk.

However, waiting indefinitely was not a solution. The two Dingguang Sect disciples who were trying to figure out how to cut open Niu Xiruo's Taoist robe finally made some progress. One of them laughed and said, "Ahaha, so that's how it is. The material of this Taoist robe is thousand-year-old spider silk, which is good at suppressing gold but weak against fire."

As he spoke, he chanted the Scarlet Flame Curse, and a ball of fire rose from his palm, burning the dagger. The red-hot dagger successfully cut through the tough collar of the Taoist robe.

If they waited any longer, they would have to witness a tragic scene of muscle pulling and skinning. He Lingyun finally took action. She slowly took out something from her bag, shook her hand and threw it in a direction away from Niu Xiruo.

The object fell to the ground with a crisp "ding-dong" sound, which immediately attracted the attention of the four people in the cave.

Senior Brother Luo looked intently in the direction of the sound and saw the shape of the object clearly, but for a moment he could not recognize what it was - it was a thin cone-shaped metal object, polished very finely, obviously a man-made product of a skilled craftsman.

He frowned, patted the back of the nun next to him, and said, "Go and have a look!"

The female monk was reluctant at first, but after he glared at her fiercely, she had no choice but to walk over coquettishly, pinching her waist and hips, and picked up the cone-shaped object.

"It looks like a flying shuttle. The workmanship is exquisite, but I can't sense any spiritual energy. It seems to be an ordinary object."

The nun held it in her hand and looked at it as she spoke. Then she looked around, as if trying to figure out where the object had fallen.

The parabola of He Lingyun's throwing of this object seemed to have been carefully calculated. It just passed over a stalactite. At the landing point, the view was blocked by the stalactite and she could not be seen at all.

"Humph, with your limited knowledge, you can't even recognize a treasure. Let me take a look!"

Senior Brother Luo walked forward with a cold face and got closer to observe. Before he could see clearly, a ball of fire bloomed in the dim cave, and the shuttle suddenly exploded. The explosion in the enclosed space was particularly harsh, and the shock wave bounced back and forth and amplified. Not to mention the man and woman near the explosion point, even the two people on the other side could not help but cover their ears in pain.

He Lingyun's choice of throwing point was extremely clever, obviously after careful calculation. It was far away from Niu Xiruo to avoid accidental injury, and it happened to be at the center of the echo in the irregular cave hall.

The defenseless female monk groaned and flew away with blood coming out of all her orifices. Her life or death was unknown. The Nascent Soul monk had used some secret method in advance to activate his shield to resist the flames and impact of the explosion, but he was dizzy and staggered by the loud noise.

The cave was filled with smoke and dust, and broken stalactites and cones kept falling down. The scene was in chaos and mess.

He Lingyun took this opportunity to swoop towards Niu Xiruo, flapping his wings to adjust his flying posture, like an eagle swooping down on its prey, and grabbed the necks of the two people beside Junior Sister Niu with his claws, intending to use the same trick again to strangle them both to unconsciousness.

In this sudden explosion, Wen Rui instantly lost dozens of bionic insect robots and even lost the surveillance footage for a moment, which scared him.

Wen Rui's eyes widened, recalling everything that had just happened, and he said in astonishment: "When did Junior Sister He learn how to disassemble a machine? She dismantled the magazine of the Jian Er Zero, took out the air-to-air micro-missiles charged with metal nitrogen, and used it as a flying sword to refine it into a remote-controlled bomb."
