I make a contract with myself

Chapter 473 Year

"Ouch...it hurts! Be gentle!"

Sun Yan lay on the bed, wincing in pain, his body convulsing.

Xie Xintong sat on the edge of the bed, feeling extremely distressed.

Seeing that her husband's injuries were severe and he had not yet fully recovered, she couldn't help but complain, "Isn't Yue there over there? Why did you rush so far ahead? Even Fan Wuji couldn't stop the half-step legend's last-ditch counterattack."

Sun Yan argued, "I didn't block it, which means I'm stronger than Fan Wuji... hiss..."

Xie Xintong snorted coldly: "Keep pretending!"

Sun Yan gave a wry smile, immediately changed the subject, and sighed, "After all these years of hard work, we still haven't been able to completely kill it."

Xie Xintong deeply agrees.

In order to kill the horned monster, Sun Yan and Yue have been working tirelessly for years, and they are finally close to wearing it down.

Unexpectedly, the Supreme System intervened at the critical moment and protected it.

At that time, Sun Yan shielded Yue from an attack, suffering severe injuries and near death, in exchange for her unleashing her full power.

If hit, the horned monster will surely die.

However, the interstellar fleet seemed to have been waiting for this moment, and in an instant, they all gathered around the two of them.

The starry sky was incredibly vast, but all Sun Yan could see at that time were warships.

Because Sun Yan was seriously injured, Yue's long-planned killing move was thwarted, forcing him to retreat to the Otherworldly Pass and recuperate until now.

Yue is very angry, and the consequences will be severe.

Dealing with a fleet of interstellar warships is actually quite simple for a half-step legend.

The moon's killing move, though only half as powerful, destroyed nearly ten thousand interstellar warships.

The price paid by the Supreme System was considerable.

Sun Yan murmured, "I wonder why that supreme system is protecting horned monsters..."

Xie Xintong frowned in thought, then said, "Is it possible that it's for research purposes?"

Sun Yan leaned against the bed and shook his head upon hearing this: "Their life forms are different, one is technology and the other is cultivation. Although their origin is spiritual energy, they are not interconnected."

"Devour and refine?"

"That's possible, but that horned monster is a half-legendary being. Just because you can kill it doesn't mean you can refine it."

"It's also possible that if we can't conquer it after a long siege, things might change. The Supreme System might need to cooperate with other half-step legends to take over the Ancient Spirit World first."

"...Notify the other passes to take this very seriously... Ouch..."

Sun Yan's face turned pale.

All the bones in his body were shattered, he lost an arm, and there were several holes in his body. Even for a leader-level martial artist, these injuries would almost certainly be fatal.

Fortunately, Sun Yan is the most perfect human being. He used dozens of elemental seeds to temper his body to the extreme, making him extremely resilient and resistant to attacks. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been as simple as just lying there for a few days.

Xie Xintong pressed him down: "Don't move, I'll handle it."

"Wanwan, keep an eye on your dad."

Sun Xingwan agreed, then turned to stare at her restless father without even blinking.

Sun Yan: "..."

As for?

My injuries are so severe, it hurts me too.

He simply closed his eyes and silently circulated his cultivation technique, using pure spiritual energy to dissolve the strange substance attached to the wound.

It's slow, but effective.

Time and space, life and death are all top-tier rules, but their effectiveness in aiding healing is greatly reduced, even less so than spiritual energy.

This isn't the first time I've encountered this situation.

The last time, it was in the void, in a place of collapse that I encountered by chance.

Sun Yan seemed to have some understanding, but he still couldn't grasp the key point.

They were just one step away from scoring...

If he couldn't figure it out, he figured the time wasn't right, so he stopped thinking about it.

Instead, he summarized what he had gained over the past ten years, and while healing his wounds, he reviewed those thrilling and dangerous battles, experiencing the feeling of being on the brink of life and death, thereby consolidating his cultivation and preparing for a breakthrough.

Seeing that he had entered a meditative state and his breathing had returned to calm, Sun Xingwan quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Activating the teleportation device and probing it with the power of the soul, one would find that outside the starry pass, the war had not ceased, though the offensive had weakened considerably.

After all, the moon was right outside, and with every move it made, it caused the interstellar warships to retreat in defeat.

No matter how many interstellar warships the Supreme System has, they can't just be wasted. A strategic retreat is perfectly normal.

“Our attack patterns have been figured out, and we have countermeasures. These mass-produced interstellar warships are nothing special after all,” someone said in the small group chat.

"Don't be careless. That horned monster has escaped and might cooperate with the raiding fleet to launch a full-scale attack on us," Sun Xingwan warned.

"Senior Sister, is the Sect Master alright?" Someone else chimed in.

"It's nothing." Sun Xingwan said calmly, not wanting anyone to know how serious her father's injuries were.

"Starship discovered in Region A13!"

A group message suddenly appeared.

"I go!"

Many people volunteered and were eager to try.

The younger generation has already grown up.

However, since the Ancient Spirit World is currently in a period of peace and there is nowhere to train normally, the responsibility of traveling the world fell to them after they developed a specific magical artifact.

However, as the senior sister and group leader, Sun Xingwan stopped them.

"Xiaoqing and Dabai happen to be nearby; they can handle it."

Upon hearing this, the people in the group immediately became much quieter.

Clearly, Sun Xingwan enjoys considerable prestige among the younger generation.

In fact, not only in the ancient spirit world, but also in this cruel star battlefield, it has gradually begun to show its talent in recent years.

With a thought, Sun Xingwan saw the interstellar warship through the elf's eyes.

There were four interstellar warships in total, two of which were badly damaged. They must have been discovered while crossing Skynet and suffered devastating damage, rendering them incapable of fighting.

It was easily destroyed in a single probing attack, reduced to a pile of mechanical wreckage that crashed to the ground.

The plundering fleet is adept at using spatial powers and frequently crosses the void to invade the ancient spirit world, which cannot be completely prevented.

Unless Sun Yan is constantly guarding him.

However, he is the sect leader, possessing leadership-level combat power, and is one of the indispensable strongmen of the Otherworldly Pass.

Therefore, the long-planned Skynet project would not simply deploy a defense network on the world's surface.

The void is extremely dangerous; for ordinary living beings, it is a forbidden zone for life.

But for Xiaobai and Xiaohei, it was no different from going home.

With occasional attention and maintenance, the interstellar warships become exposed and serve as a source of experience for the younger generation.

"Xiaoqing, Dabai, let's finish this quickly."

Two against two, very fair.

In the past, before Chu Yi's research had made any progress, these invading interstellar warships were indeed troublesome and required many powerful individuals to face them together.

But now that their secrets have been exposed, dealing with them couldn't be easier.

The electromagnetic spheres, when arranged in an array of three, can destroy it.

Of course, although it's called electromagnetic, it's just a perverse hobby of some time traveler. The actual target is the core energy of the interstellar warship, directly inducing it to self-destruct.

If it weren't for its exorbitant cost, the plundering fleet would have been scattered long ago.

Half an hour later, Xiaoqing and Dabai finished their work and delivered a pile of wreckage to Chuyi Research Institute.
