Chapter 528: Escape
"A suspected battle broke out between a Divine Being and an Astral God's avatar at the Sunset Astral Gate, ending with the defeat of the Astral God's avatar."
As they looked at the information displayed on Bai Lu's bracelet, silence fell over the group.
The Tier Six Legend Long Ying, the Divine Being Qi Ming, and the dozen or so pioneers in their team all froze, their eyes fixed blankly on the screen. It was as if a silencing spell had enveloped the area. No one made the slightest sound.
After a long pause, a pioneer hesitantly spoke. "Could this Divine Being be Li Pin's protector? Or did he secretly spend a fortune hiring one to follow him?"
Another pioneer from Qi Ming's team, specializing in intelligence gathering, responded, "The Sunset Astral Gate was built by the Forest Feather Sect and incorporated into the public transport network.
"To ensure it remains profitable, the sect enforces a strict monitoring system to guarantee its safety. According to their surveillance... only one Divine-level energy signature was detected."
Qi Ming's extensive connections within the Xian Ying Star Cluster's Astral Gate Transportation Department allowed him to monitor gate activities in real time. This advantage was why Long Ying chose to collaborate with him.
The pioneer had obtained some intercepted images while speaking and quickly displayed them on the screen. "I obtained this through personal favors from the Forest Feather Sect's surveillance system. This... is the Divine Being consistently monitored by their system."
Everyone immediately turned to the images. The figure displayed was none other than Li Pin—the very person they had dismissed as a mere avatar.
"According to the surveillance system, his peak Power Level once reached 180,000," the pioneer continued, presenting a comparison screenshot.
One figure showed just over 150,000, while the other clearly displayed an overwhelming 180,000.
