Chapter 461  A Surprising Discovery

Jiubei and Wasser slowly fell back to the ground when they were about ten meters away from the red cloaked man.

Jiubei was slightly surprised, while Wasser looked calm and said, "〔Sword Envoy-Ji Xin〕, I didn't expect that the Tianhe Guard would ask you to escort the Tianhe Water this time."

The red cloaked man named Ji Xin replied, "It's unimaginable that the Jino civilization has joined forces with the people of the Triangulum Galaxy."

Wasser then twisted his neck and took two steps forward. With a wave of his right hand, he pulled out a long sword from behind.

Wasser's long sword was light blue and only more than one meter long. The shape of the sword was ordinary, with double blades and a sharp tip, but it also had a solemn aura and was extraordinary.

Holding the sword tightly in his hand, Vasser said directly: "The greetings are over, and we can start the main topic."

As he said this, he had already raised the blue sword in his hand, preparing to attack, but at this time, Ji Xin suddenly raised his hand, facing the other party with his palm, and said: "I am a careless person, are you sure you want to do it? After all...surprises and accidents can happen at any time."

As he said this, Ji Xin's eyes turned slightly, and he looked at the black spaceship that was still burning in the distance from the corner of his eyes.

Just a glance, his eyes immediately returned to Vasser and Jiu Bei in front of him.

Jiu Bei seemed to be afraid of Ji Xin, and looked at Vasser beside him, whispering: "What should we do now?"

Vasser paused slightly, looked at Ji Xin with a cold look, and held the hilt of the sword more tightly with his right hand, saying: "Whether the water of the Tianhe River is on the spaceship or on Ji Xin's body, kill it, and everything will be answered."

As he said this, Vasser suddenly moved and actually started to take action directly.

Ji Xin did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately waved his long sword to meet it directly.

‘Dang!’

A crisp sound was heard, and the two weapons collided like two pieces of metal, and the sharp collision sound made the ears buzz.

But neither of them used the energy of themselves and the sword body, and only heard the sound of ‘dangdang’. The figures of the two people intertwined and changed, and the weapons kept colliding, as if two masters were fighting.

Although there was no energy injection, the battle between the two was not dull, and all the fighting skills between swords were revealed at this time.

Both of them were 1.7-level civilizations in the third interval. At present, the battle without using energy also made Li Ming's eyes dazed.

Although it was exciting to watch, Li Ming did not forget the purpose of his trip. After a few flashes of the flying dragon, he came to the vicinity of the black destroyed spaceship.

According to the conversation between the three people, it is not difficult to guess that Ji Xin came to escort the water of the Tianhe River, and the sudden appearance of Wasser and Jiubei came to plunder. Then, the water of the Tianhe River is either on Ji Xin's body or in the black spaceship.

Thinking of this, Feilong flashed again and entered the burning spaceship. The giant spaceship of 100 meters long was not small, and it was not easy to find something in it. In addition, the operating table was destroyed, so Feilong could only use consciousness sensing and shadow shuttle.

After searching for a while, Li Ming's eyes suddenly widened a little, and he did find a suspicious object in the main cabin of the spaceship.

Half of the main cabin was surrounded by flames, but in the undamaged part, a square metal box appeared on a metal table.

Through consciousness sensing, energy was constantly released from it, and this was the only object that Li Ming Feilong found after searching the spaceship.

"Could it be that the water of the Tianhe River is inside?"

Li Ming whispered secretly, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then Feilong flashed into the metal box. The metal box was only the size of the palm, and Feilong turned into a green light and disappeared into it.

At this time, the situation in the metal box was completely under Li Ming's vision.

In this metal box, there is a small square box, which is as transparent as a glass box, and there is also a floating blue bead in the box.

The bead was the size of a soybean, floating steadily in the center of the transparent box, motionless, and this thing was the drop of Tianhe Water.

Li Ming had previously learned about Tianhe Water. This energy body would exist in liquid form when it reached a certain volume, but if only a small amount was taken, it would immediately turn into a solid state. It was an extremely rare energy body.

Feilong looked back and forth carefully for a long time, and Li Ming couldn't help but sink into it, and he was amazed, secretly saying: "It is indeed a rare and precious thing..."

However, no matter how much Li Ming wanted to own this thing, he had to stay calm. After all, the forces involved in this thing were too powerful. As far as Li Ming's current strength was concerned, he might die if he was not careful.

Thinking of this, Li Ming prepared to take back Feilong.

But at this moment, Li Ming's Feilong suddenly paused, and a strange message suddenly emerged, and even Li Ming was startled.

His eyes widened a bit: "This is..."

While speaking, the flying dragon suddenly flashed to the bottom of the metal platform. There was a small cabin under the metal platform, only a dozen meters long and wide, relatively hidden, and protected by a red barrier.

This was something Li Ming had not discovered before, because there was no strong energy aura inside.

The reason why he suddenly discovered it just now was because some energy aura had just been revealed inside.

The barrier was like nothing to Li Ming's consciousness. He saw the flying dragon spinning in front of the red light curtain, and a small red vortex had already emerged. The vortex was like a portal, and the flying dragon flashed and entered it from the vortex.

After passing through the barrier, the entire space inside came into view.

There was a long room inside, very empty, with only a rectangular metal cabinet in the middle of the room, like a coffin, except that the top cover was transparent.

Seeing this, Li Ming became even more curious, and then asked Feilong to come to the transparent cover to start checking.

Just one look, Li Ming's face changed drastically, his eyes widened, and he whispered in surprise: "Qu Jie?!"

Inside this coffin-like device was a person lying. This person was extremely sturdy, like a pillar, with earth-brown armor all over his body, his eyes closed, and his nearly square face was like a crystal block.

And this facial feature and many details on his body showed that this person was the one Qin Gu said, Qu Jie.

Qu Jie is one of the core members of the Tianhe Guard and the member who appears most often.

When the Tianhe Guard needs to communicate or confront with external forces, Qu Jie is the first to bear the brunt, and Qu Jie has also personally admitted that he is one of the core members of the Tianhe Guard.

When Li Ming left Tristan, Qin Gu personally told him that Qu Jie was Gabi's good friend. If he wanted to have a good relationship with the Tianhe Guard, he had to get Qu Jie's approval, which was also the key point of Li Ming's trip to the Tianhe Star Region.

But why did Qu Jie appear here? And he was still in this coffin-like device.

Under the induction of consciousness, Li Ming could be sure that Qu Jie was not dead at this time, but was in a dormant state and could wake up at any time.

Li Ming could not know the reason, but since he met Qu Jie here, Li Ming's original plan must be changed.

Just as Li Ming was thinking, a "boom" sound suddenly sounded, as if a bomb exploded nearby.

Li Ming did not dare to hesitate and asked Feilong to quickly leave the spaceship and come outside. Under Feilong's gaze, Li Ming saw clearly that Jiubei had actually joined the battle.

With the joining of Jiubei, the battle situation and the situation have undergone subtle changes.

In terms of level of civilization, the three of them were the same. Naturally, one of the two of them had the upper hand at this time. Moreover, the form of attacking each other with weapons just now had ended. The three of them all used the powerful energy in their bodies.

Jiubei's body was still wrapped in blood flames, which was strange and abnormal, while Wasser was shrouded in vertical blue light. The blue light was in the form of thin strips and continued to rise from Wasser's body into the air, as if Wasser's body itself could release this energy.

Looking at these, Jixin's expression did not change much. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his cold eyes swept the two people in front of him, saying: "To be honest, you two are not in my plan, but you showed up, I still have to take it seriously."

As he said this, Jixin changed from holding the sword with one hand to holding the hilt with both hands, and placed the sword across his chest, and at the same time, his body began to produce a strange breath.

That breath was surprisingly similar to the blood flame breath on Jiubei's body. Like blood flames, every part of the body was covered by this breath, as if the blood in the body was evaporating.

This was only on the surface, but Li Ming discovered the difference through his wisdom eyes.

The blood flames on Jiubei's body were truly emitted from his body and were made of the energy in his body, but Jixin's was different. The blood flames around Jixin's body were formed by the body condensing the energy in the surrounding air.

In other words, Jiubei's energy in the form of blood flames was used for attack, while the blood flames around Jixin's body were used to absorb energy.

Looking at Jixin again at this time, it seemed that the space within a range of more than ten meters around his body was slowly collapsing with Jixin's body as the center, while Jixin's expression was indifferent and he said, "The empty atrium is waiting to be filled with darkness. Are you... ready?"

Jiubei just gritted his teeth when he heard this.

Wasser still looked indifferent, snorted lightly, and said, "It's getting interesting now."

Before the three of them took action, their respective auras had been spreading continuously, completely covering the surrounding area. After a few seconds, a muffled sound of "bang!" was heard, and the blood flames around Jixin suddenly burst into flames, as if a ball of fire exploded.

The blood flame's momentum suddenly rose several meters high, and Ji Xin's figure disappeared from the spot with a hum. Only a flash of blood light was seen, and the figure came in front of Jiu Bei after a few flashes.

The speed was so fast that ordinary eyes could not keep up. Only the flash of red light was seen. By the time he saw it, Ji Xin had already raised the giant sword above his head with both hands and slashed it downwards.
