At noon, an armed helicopter took off from in front of the Mount Everest Base Camp Forward Command Post, flying rapidly towards the southeast of Mount Everest.
This was the War Dragon Squad's armed helicopter, with Jiang Wuming leading the team to provide support in the southeast direction of Mount Everest.
Prior to this, Marshal Qi Wufu of the Military Department and the other four Guardian Squads had already gone for support.
Among them, Qi Wufu was in a helicopter piloted by Zhu Jian, pursuing a foreign enemy who was a five-star War God, tenth stage.
The other four Guardian Squads were pursuing other foreign enemies.
To ensure the safety of the Guardian Squad members, the Military Department had specially assigned an additional four-star War God to each of the four Guardian Squads to act as their new protectors.
However, the War Dragon Squad did not receive such treatment.
There was no four-star War God at the Forward Command Post. If one were to be arranged, it would need to be transferred from elsewhere. Jiang Wuming did not want to waste time, so he directly led his team to depart.
Inside the armed helicopter, Dongfang Xiaoyao served as the pilot as usual. Jiang Wuming, Qin Xiaozhi, Xing Tian, and Huangfu Weixia were all fully armed in the cabin.
The cabin was quiet, and the faces of Jiang Wuming and the others showed varying degrees of sadness.
"Brother Zhi, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked about your grandfather Qin and uncle at the meeting."
Immediately, Jiang Wuming broke the silence in the cabin.
The death of Qin Yuanzheng and Qin Linhai on the battlefield was a significant blow to Qin Xiaozhi, like a dagger plunged into his heart.
His speaking out about it in public at the meeting was no different from rubbing salt into the wound.
"Boss, you said we don't have 'sorry' or 'thank you' between us. Besides, I think it was normal for you to ask me at the meeting."
Qin Xiaozhi shook his head, then added, "Moreover, the staff officer asked me to speak, which was deliberately to make me say everything in public, eliminate the shadows in my heart, and temper me."
"I will definitely avenge Grandpa Qin, Uncle Qin, and our fallen comrades!"
Hearing this, Jiang Wuming's heart trembled slightly, and he patted Qin Xiaozhi's shoulder.
"Hoo..."
After doing this, he took a deep breath, then collected his thoughts and entered the mysterious space to cultivate.
The pressure of time not waiting for anyone brought great motivation to Jiang Wuming.
Ever since the second battle at Donghai Martial Academy broke out, Jiang Wuming had been racing against time to cultivate every day.
He had now reached the ninth stage of a three-star War God in his martial arts cultivation, and his spiritual power had also reached the ninth stage of a two-star War God!
All of this, besides his own efforts, was also due to an opportunity – Heavenly Dragon Daoist arranged for him to feel the great curtain and the rules of the world!
That was an extremely mentally taxing matter!
During this period, his spiritual power was greatly honed, and he gained vague insights into the true meaning of all things and the rules of the world, leading to rapid progress in his cultivation.
While his cultivation improved, Jiang Wuming further refined his understanding of these three peerless martial arts by practicing the "Thunderous Treasure Technique," "God-Slaying Saber Technique," and "True Dragon Treasure Technique" in his spiritual body within the mysterious space.
In addition, he evolved the Yin-Yang Grinding Disk with his true qi, but it could only contain a trace of the true meaning of Yin and Yang, unlike Heavenly Dragon Daoist, which contained the laws of Yin and Yang.
At this moment, after entering the mysterious space, Jiang Wuming began cultivating again with his spiritual body.
This time, he was practicing a forbidden technique from the "True Dragon Treasure Technique" – the Heavenly Dragon Sword Array!
Back then, Xia Xueqin had used this forbidden technique in the first battle at Donghai Martial Academy, crossing a minor realm to injure a foreign enemy who was a four-star War God, second stage, leaving a deep impression on Jiang Wuming.
Swish!
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Wuming suddenly opened his eyes, white light flashing within them.
He sensed the presence of nine martial artists!
"Reporting to Captain, nine foreign enemies have appeared ahead!"
At the same time, Dongfang Xiaoyao's voice rang out, clearly heard by Jiang Wuming and the others.
"Captain, I request to engage in combat. I'll take care of all enemies except that four-star War God!"
In the helicopter cabin, Qin Xiaozhi took out his custom sniper rifle and requested of Jiang Wuming.
"Alright."
Jiang Wuming agreed immediately.
Through his senses, he judged that among the foreign enemies, there was one four-star War God, sixth stage, two three-star War Gods, two two-star War Gods, and three one-star War Gods.
Qin Xiaozhi raised his sniper rifle and said over the radio, "Xiaoyao, slow down and descend!"
"Yes!"
Dongfang Xiaoyao responded and skillfully piloted the armed helicopter, like a falcon, diving down towards the foreign enemies on the ground.
Whoosh!
Soon, when the armed helicopter was less than two hundred meters from the ground, a sharp whistling sound pierced the air.
In the snowy ground, the four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, suddenly grabbed a battle spear and threw it into the air.
The battle spear was wrapped in true qi, emitting terrifying energy fluctuations, like a cannonball, blasting towards the armed helicopter.
Dongfang Xiaoyao sensed the enemy's attack immediately and, while piloting the armed helicopter in the air, performed a thrilling evasive maneuver, dodging the whistling battle spear.
Splash!
Afterward, the cabin door of the armed helicopter was abruptly pulled open.
Qin Xiaozhi held his custom sniper rifle, aimed at the foreign enemies below, and decisively pulled the trigger.
"Bang!"
The gunshot rang out, and a three-star bullet shot out from the barrel, whistling towards one of the three-star War Gods.
On the ground, several foreign enemies were shocked to see the armed helicopter performing evasive maneuvers in the air.
After the gunshot, they realized the danger and sensed the energy-fluctuating bullet whistling towards them, instinctively attempting to dodge.
"Puff—"
The three-star War God targeted by Qin Xiaozhi was hit by the three-star bullet before he could even move. His protective true qi shattered, and his body exploded on the spot.
"Long-range weapon, evade!"
The four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, let out a low roar and moved forward first.
He had only heard that the native world possessed weapons of mass destruction and long-range weapons, and he did not know that long-range weapons could only kill enemies below the four-star War God realm.
Swish swish swish...
The other seven foreign enemies, hearing this, their expressions changed. They all sprang up from the ground, attempting to move away from the armed helicopter.
Inside the armed helicopter, Qin Xiaozhi continued to hold his custom sniper rifle, locking onto enemies with absolute marksmanship, and pulling the trigger.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
...
With each gunshot, three two-star War Gods and three one-star War Gods were hit by the custom bullets one after another and died on the spot.
Not a single shot missed.
Qin Xiaozhi used his custom sniper rifle to vent his hatred and killing intent towards the foreign enemies, but he maintained absolute composure, never wasting a single bullet!
"Xiaoyao, overtake them, then descend. I'm going down!"
Seeing this, Jiang Wuming knew that Qin Xiaozhi would have difficulty locking onto the remaining three-star War God, so he gave instructions.
"Yes, Captain!"
Dongfang Xiaoyao received the order, suddenly accelerated, overtook the last two foreign enemies, and then further reduced the armed helicopter's flight altitude and speed.
Swish!
Jiang Wuming flashed out of the cabin. Under the effect of inertia, he flew out several meters before landing on the ground, kicking up snowflakes.
"You... you are Jiang Wuming?"
Two foreign enemies, seeing a figure descend from the sky and block their path, immediately stopped.
Although the foreign world had concealed the inside story of the second battle at Donghai Martial Academy, the truth of the first battle and the preceding battles had not been hidden.
This was because Jiang Wuming had caused a sensation throughout the foreign world with these events!
His deeds and portraits could be heard and seen everywhere in the foreign world.
This was also why the martial arts geniuses of the foreign world had challenged Jiang Wuming back then!
These two foreign enemies had both seen Jiang Wuming's portrait and recognized him immediately.
"Bang!"
A gunshot was the response to them.
Inside the armed helicopter, Qin Xiaozhi pulled the trigger again.
He used the opportunity of Jiang Wuming's appearance to shock the two foreign enemies, aiming at the foreign enemy in the three-star War God realm, and shot him in the head, blood splattering.
"If you stayed in the air, I would be helpless against you, but since you came down, then die for me!"
At the same time, the four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, ignoring the death of his subordinate, sneered, flashed, and directly lunged at Jiang Wuming.
Swish!
His speed was extremely fast, and he instantly closed the distance with Jiang Wuming before swinging his battle saber fiercely.
In an instant, a terrifying saber energy roared out, slashing towards Jiang Wuming.
Boom!
With a loud roar, Jiang Wuming's figure was engulfed by the saber energy, disappearing into nothingness. The snowy ground beneath him exploded, and a huge crack was cleaved open.
The terrifying energy fluctuations stirred up a fierce wind, which rolled up snowflakes and swept in all directions.
Not good!
In the storm, the four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, sensed that Jiang Wuming's aura was still present and was rapidly approaching him. He immediately understood that he had struck Jiang Wuming's afterimage.
As soon as he realized this, he sprang off the ground, instinctively wanting to move.
However—
It was too late!
Swish!
Jiang Wuming's figure, like a ghost, roared forward. He suddenly swung his right hand and grabbed the four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy!
"You..."
The four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, was like a chick, grabbed by the neck by Jiang Wuming and lifted into the air, looking at Jiang Wuming with a face full of horror.
"First one."
The young man slowly uttered three words, then his right hand surged with true qi.
"Crack!"
"Puff—"
The neck of the four-star War God, sixth stage, foreign enemy, snapped, his head separating from his body, blood staining the snow!
...
