Chapter 988 The Hongmen Banquet

Ling Tian smiled happily after hearing Ali's introduction to his new ability.

"Ali, this spell of yours called Spatial Banishment is indeed very powerful! If used well, it can make opponents wander into other spaces and disappear from this world forever. This is of great significance for us when we encounter strong enemies in the future."

"Meow, this move is powerful, but it also has limitations..."

Ali hid nothing and directly told Ling Tian about the relevant details of this spell. Although Spatial Banishment is a formidable technique, the problem is that its mana consumption is extremely high. Even for a cat demon like Ali, casting Spatial Banishment three times consecutively would almost completely drain his internal mana.

Another limitation of this spell is that once the spatial通道 opens, as long as a part of the person's body remains in the original space, they can retreat from it at any time. This means that to completely banish an opponent, they must be forced into the spatial通道. However, it is already very difficult for Ali to cast the spell and open the entrance to the spatial通道; it is impossible to simultaneously control the spell to put other opponents into it. This way, it relies on others to help push the opponents into the spatial通道, or to set up a trap at the entrance of the spatial通道 for the opponents to fall into. Little Campbell was exactly that, walking right into the trap.

"You don't need to have any regrets, Ali. No move is perfect. As long as you think a little, you can maximize the effectiveness of these moves."

"Mhm, mhm!" Ali nodded repeatedly.

"By the way, clean up this trash. It's polluting the environment!" Ling Tian pointed at the corpses on the ground.

"Okay, piece of cake!" Ali said, and with a flash of thought, the corpses on the ground disappeared, leaving only pools of blood. As for where these corpses went, they were naturally thrown into any spatial rift that was found.

...

In the vastness of space, countless planes exist. In one of these planes, at an altitude of 10 meters, a ripple suddenly appeared. Following that, a dark figure fell from the ripple. This dark figure was none other than Little Campbell. He was fleeing for his life when he suddenly felt the ground beneath him disappear, and then he fell through the air. It must be known that the ripple was more than 10 meters above the ground, which is about the height of three stories. Campbell lost his balance in mid-air, and his arms hit the ground first, making cracking sounds. Both of his arms were instantly shattered into several pieces. Immediately after, his waist slammed heavily onto the ground, breaking his lumbar spine. His lower body lost all sensation. If he hadn't used his broken arms to buffer the impact, he would have likely been killed instantly. Little Campbell was stunned. He didn't know what had happened to him. He was just desperately escaping, but now, he seemed to have arrived in another world. However, before Little Campbell could get a good look at this world, he suddenly smelled a腥味. Little Campbell mustered all his strength to turn his head, and the sight before him shocked him. It was a giant snake, over ten meters long, with greedy eyes staring intently at Little Campbell.

"No, I don't want to die, I don't want to be eaten..." Little Campbell cried out loud. He wanted to run, but he couldn't. It was all in vain. His lumbar spine was broken, and his lower body was paralyzed. His arms were twisted into a mess, with several bones broken. He couldn't even crawl on the ground. The next moment, Little Campbell's cries abruptly stopped, and he became food for the giant snake. If Little Campbell had been given a choice, he would never have gone out with his brothers to forage for food today.

...

Belford Island, an island of only 21 square kilometers, is located on a lake in Montana, northern United States. This island was once sold for 80 million US dollars to a mysterious wealthy individual, who was actually Boris Gustav. This transaction also listed Belford Island as one of the world's top ten private islands, and its price has since multiplied several times. On this island, there are five large villas with distinct styles, a dock, a helipad, and a dedicated hangar for seaplanes by the water. Additionally, about ten kilometers off the coast of the island, on the lakeshore, there is a small private airport, which also belongs to the Gustav family. Every summer, when the weather is hottest, Boris Gustav comes here to spend a month on vacation. This time, the Gustav family personally extended an invitation to Aurora and the representatives of Aurora's backing, Ice Sky Pharmaceuticals, for a face-to-face meeting to resolve the matters concerning Ice Sky Pharmaceuticals. The Gustav family also proposed, for security reasons, to hold the meeting at Belford Island. The Gustav family also made it clear that if Ling Tian and the others agreed to negotiate on Belford Island, then the talks would continue. If they refused, then there would be no prospect of negotiation, and the lawsuit would continue, dragging on for an unknown period. Ling Tian and Aurora discussed the matter. They felt that this was likely a banquet of traps, but even so, it was worth attending. On one hand, they wanted to find out what the old man Gustav was up to. On the other hand, Ling Tian was also preparing to show off his strength again!

Early in the morning, Mark Gustav, along with some people, waited anxiously at the private airport on the lakeshore. He was ordered by his father to welcome Ling Tian and Aurora. Although Boris Gustav wished he could devour Aurora and Ling Tian alive at this moment, he still had to maintain appearances. This was the dignity of a prominent family. The agreed-upon time was approaching, but the airport control tower had not yet received any news of a plane landing, nor had the radar detected any incoming flights. Mark felt a bit displeased, wondering if they had been stood up. Just then, Mark's phone suddenly rang.

"Mr. Mark, I am Aurora's attendant and a representative of Ice Sky Pharmaceuticals. You can call me Lin!" Ling Tian's voice came from the phone.

"Mr. Lin, I have been waiting for you at the airport since morning, but where are you now? Being late is not a polite thing to do!"

"Mr. Mark, our scheduled meeting time is 9 AM, and it is now 8:30 AM! We have already arrived at the dock of Belford Island!"
