Chapter 2294: 2294
In the swamp of darkness, the flames of light were shining brilliantly when the Immortal Cultivators of the reformists and the Dongfang family all put on their crystal suits .
The shimmers of their spiritual shields made everybody look like a glittering ghost . In the next second, all the ghosts were enshrouded by their own spiritual energy and the enemy’s bombardment, burning furiously .
The experts from the army, including “Iron Head” Ran Xiong, were responsible to block the elites of the Dongfang family at the periphery, while “Fiery Sorceress” Zhu Linglong led a hundred devil huntresses at the gate of the anonymous hospital . The battle of the two parties entered the most heated phase almost from the first second of the engagement . The dark swamp was simmering immediately!
Hooooooo!
Three devil huntresses had leaped over the first defense line of the anonymous hospital swiftly and were about to break into the hospital when an abnormally brawny man suddenly charged out from the hospital in devastating roars .
His body was already as thick and heavy as an iron tower, but his right arm that had been expanded to the maximum was more than one meter in diameter and almost as thick as his body . At first look, he was almost like a pair of conjoined twins whose shoulder blades were connected!
Not just that, the abnormally huge arm was also extremely long and dangled to the ground . The hand had retrograded into five enormous blades, and the whole arm was brimming with lumps . Among the lumps, tremendous bright yellow objects that looked like eyeballs were growing . It was both disgusting and blood-freezing .
Shua!
Thousands of dazzling lights were emanated from the crystalline lenses among the lumps on the arm, immediately disrupting the attack of the three devil huntresses .
The arm that was three meters long was both tensile and rapid when it was waved like a whip . Under the sound of air being split apart, it slapped the body of a devil huntress brutally, cutting both her crystal suit and her body into halves . The abnormal lumps on the arm of the freak seemed to contain highly-corrosive acids . When the lumps exploded and the acids splashed to the crystal suit, the crystal suit was immediately smoking with earsplitting noises and collapsing at a visible speed!
The freak was “Fearful Claw”, a warrior of “Thirty-Three Limits” . His entire arm was from a world fragment named “Venomous Wind Sector”, a land of terror covered by an ocean of acids!
“Fiery Sorceress” Zhu Linglong lunged forward and rescued her subordinate narrowly before Fearful Claw ripped apart the second devil huntress .
On the forehead of her crystal suit, a vivid, red eyeball carved out of crystals shot out a red spark under the boost of his soul, which darted into the eyes of Fearful Claw as quickly as a bolt of lightning .

Fearful Claw was slightly dazed . As if mired in Fiery Sorceress’ mental attack, his movement was immediately slowed down . With painful moans coming from his throat, tremendous blisters emerged on his body one after another, and when the blisters exploded, flames dashed up from below!
It was a secret technique to interfere with the enemy’s central nerves and make their brain issue wrong orders to the nerve endings all over the body . As a result, all the hormones would be secreted crazily, and the mitochondria inside the cells would do work peculiarly . Eventually, the cells would be “overloaded”, resulting in the spontaneous combustion .
It was exactly what Fiery Sorceress was best at!
Fearful Claw, as a member of “Thirty-Three Limits” who had received the transplantation of the organs of alien beasts, focused purely on the buildup of the physical body and attached less importance to the training of the soul and the mental warfare . Therefore, he was hit immediately when he encountered Fiery Sorceress who was an expert in mental warfare .
Fearful Claw was totally on fire, turning into a giant burning ball rolling everywhere on the ground .
Fiery Sorceress was greatly exhausted after hitting the enemy with the critical attack . Her speed was lowered briefly .
From the furious fire on Fearful Claw’s body, however, dozens of damp tentacles where acids were dropping suddenly darted out and tied up the limbs of Fiery Sorceress, dragging her to the direction of Fearful Claw brutally!
It was a new technique unrecorded by the intelligence . Nobody foresaw that Fearful Claw’s abnormal arm could explode and split into dozens of tentacles that were more than ten meters long!
More devil huntresses leaped close, trying to chop off the tentacles and rescue Fiery Sorceress .
From inside the anonymous hospital, tremendous hideous members of “Thirty-Three Limits” also emerged and clashed with the intruders in the goriest way!
Five hundred meters from the battleground in the twenty-seventh district, there was a building that was established next to a cliff .
Neither of the two parties engaged in the fierce battle noticed that the window of the inconspicuous, gray building slightly opened, allowing a piece of magical equipment that looked like a flower to extend out .
The flower slowly blossomed and turned into an antenna that was aimed at the anonymous hospital . When the “petals” shivered softly, the telepathic thoughts that had been enhanced were immediately delivered to every corner of the anonymous hospital .
The other side of the antenna extended into the building and was connected to an operating table in the shape of a cocoon . Li Yao was lying on the operating table, surrounded by mild nerve buffer liquids, with a ring of tiny metal slips stuck to his head .
On every metal slip the size of a fingernail, there were a plethora of super-tiny rune arrays that he had carved in person .

He was engaged in a more fierce and soul-stirring battle on a different battlefield .
Lying inside the cocoon-shaped cabin that was as warm as the womb, the quakes and explosions around him seemed to be gone . The twenty-seventh district was dissected into clear, transparent maps, allowing him to scrutinize every building, every firing point, and every tube within three thousand meters .
It was a shame that Dongfang Renxin would never make such a lousy mistake . The anonymous hospital, despite the ostensible shabbiness, did not have any ventilation tube or a sewer that could allow a human being to crawl through .
Also, the reformists were full of talents and experts . The mission was too critical for Li Yao to sneak into the location in secret on his own .
Right now, he was separating his attention and controlling a hundred and eight super-tiny mechanical spiders at the same time, making them crawl to the crystal bombs deployed near the anonymous hospital .
The super-tiny mechanical spiders were exactly the model that he used to deal with Long Yangjun a few days ago .
Their main purpose was never to attack but to help Li Yao invade the places that were uninvadable for human beings to sabotage or survey .
It was even safe to say that they were the “banes of crystal bombs” that Li Yao had produced specifically for this mission .
Under the cover of the vehement attacks of the main troop, the super-tiny mechanical spiders crawled into the underground tubes through the gaps like little bugs and approached the locations where the crystal bombs were planted .
Inside Li Yao’s brain, a hundred and eight 3D pictures popped up, as if he had been divided into a hundred and eight parts himself .
To blow up the entire anonymous hospital and the evidence inside into smithereens certainly required abundant crystal bombs .
Such crystal bombs would release extremely feeble spiritual waves to the outside world even when they were in the hibernation state . The experienced bomb experts could easily distinguish them from common magical equipment .
It was needless to say that Dongfang Renxin must’ve activated the self-destruction devices now that the anonymous hospital was under attack . As a result, the spiritual waves were even more intense, allowing Li Yao to locate all the crystal bombs immediately .
At this moment, Dongfang Renxin and the highly-influential elder of his family were both in the hospital . Naturally, they would not blow themselves up together with the hospital .
But Li Yao estimated that such a clandestine place must have short-distance teleportation arrays leading to the outside world . After Dongfang Renxin and his companions successfully evacuated, he would certainly blow up the hospital and even the entire twenty-seventh district without caring for anything else .
He had to race with time!
“What a delicate toy!”
Maneuvering the super-tiny mechanical spiders, Li Yao observed the crystal bombs that were deployed around the anonymous hotel from close up and complimented sincerely .
It had been a long time since he last saw such beautiful crystal bombs .
They were in the oval structure, like the shell of a snail, with a surface as smooth as a mirror . At first look, there was no place for any dismantling tools to work on at all .
Inside the crystal bombs, the most sensitive sensors must’ve been installed too, and even the feeblest quake would’ve been perceived .
Also, the dozens of crystal bombs were connected to each other both through wires and wirelessly . When any of them was damaged, the other crystal bombs would immediately go into the countdown to be detonated .
It was almost a flawless self-destruct device . Even a specialist in crystal bombs such as Li Yao felt tempted by it .
“It’s quite challenging . Even though I have advanced into the Divinity Transformation Stage, if I want to completely dismantle such a self-destruction device, it will still take me… one minute!”
The metal vesicles on the backs of the hundred and eight super-tiny mechanical spiders were suddenly opened at the same time, spurting out bright green mists of ice to the shells of the crystal bombs that were as smooth as mirrors .
The shells of the crystal bombs were immediately covered in a layer of vague heptagonal frost, which was completely different from the regular snowflake .
What was stored inside the metal vesicles on the backs of the super-tiny mechanical spiders was a material named “Jade Dragon Marrow” . Li Yao had only produced it by mixing twenty-seven kinds of low-temperature drugs according to a certain ratio .
The moment it encountered air, it would immediately turn into icy mist and lower the temperature around to minus a hundred degrees so that most of the materials in the environment would be inactive . It also boasted a particularly impressive effect on the suppression of the spiritual waves of crystals .
One might even say that it was a special gas that was both “cold” and “inert” .
Although every tiny mechanical spider could only carry one drop of the Jade Dragon Marrow, it was enough to freeze the sensor inside a crystal bomb .
In the next second, Li Yao held his breath and remotely controlled the mechanical spiders to crawl on the frozen shells of the crystal bombs .
A group of the mechanical spiders was stuck to the shells of the crystal bombs with the sucking discs at their abdomens, while the other spiders nearby used their sharpest blade limbs to draw perfect circles, cutting holes on the shells of the crystal bombs .
Putting the shells that had been cut out aside, all the super-tiny mechanical spiders crawled in through the holes and entered the crystal bombs .

"Why us?" Still staring at the unusually stationary fire of the candle he was holding, Agung voiced the questions in our mind.
