On the drive over, Song Jixing had already witnessed the entire incident.

Today, the film crew was originally shooting an outdoor scene, with many personnel working outdoors simultaneously.

It was at this moment that two individuals snuck onto the set to steal Ah Huang the dog. However, they likely did something wrong, as not only did the dog not fall for their scheme, but it also started barking loudly, drawing the attention of many people.

Seeing their task about to fail, the two individuals resorted to force, injecting the dog with a sedative to knock it out.

With too many bystanders present, some people immediately went to notify Fei Wennan, while others tried to intervene on the spot.

But when the kidnappers brandished their guns, the crowd scattered in panic.

Arriving late, Fei Wennan was unaware of what had happened, only seeing his dog's master being carried away by strangers. On instinct, he called out to his dog, and ended up being taken away by the kidnappers as well.

This account was mainly reconstructed based on eyewitness accounts from the scene.

To those present, it was utterly bewildering why anyone would brandish guns just to steal a dog.

They must have been after Fei Wennan!

However, from the perspective of the Special Operations Center personnel, although it seemed like a trivial matter, the enemy's infiltration was deeper than they had imagined.

Of course, Fei Wennan's habit of anonymously flaunting his dog on social media from time to time had also contributed to him being targeted.

In other words, not only did the person need to be rescued, but ideological work also needed to be done.

Seeing that they had arrived at a relatively secluded area, Song Jixing sprang into action.

Even the weakest enemy is still an enemy, and one must always remain vigilant to prevent them from suddenly lashing out and causing harm – this was the most fundamental knowledge Song Jixing had learned in the realm of Spiritual cultivation.

Even though the Spiritual cultivators of this world had yet to fully mature, there were still many potential sources of harm.

As Song Jixing approached the kidnappers' vehicle, her keen senses detected an unusual disturbance.

There was something on the car, and on the two individuals as well.

The most direct solution was to protect the person and dog inside, so she chanted a Spiritual Mantra, enveloping them both in an invisible barrier.

As the ticking sound grew louder, Song Jixing's car had already pulled up in front of them.

Bang!

A tremendous explosion and towering flames erupted, blasting the car apart right before Song Jixing's eyes.

To her surprise, Fei Wennan, who was caught within the fiery blast, seemed unharmed!

The car exploded?

Wasn't he supposed to have been blown away?

But how is he still perfectly fine?

Fei Wennan looked down, seeing himself and Ah Huang still sitting in their original positions, surrounded by raging flames, scorching heat waves, and the shredded remains of the car's roof.

Had they already been blown to pieces and their souls separated from their bodies?

Just as Fei Wennan was about to break down in tears again, the twisted car door, bent open by the blast, was pulled aside by someone.

Fei Wennan turned his tear-filled gaze towards the person beside him.

It was Song Jixing – had she been blown to pieces too?

Although the kidnappers had been blown to smithereens and the car door mangled, if Fei Wennan mustered enough effort, he could still walk out on his own, despite his bound hands.

But he seemed to have been petrified by the sight before him, remaining completely motionless.

After waiting a minute for Fei Wennan to come to his senses, seeing that he remained seated unmoving in the car, Song Jixing had no choice but to pull him out herself.

The twisted and deformed car door posed no issue for Song Jixing – even if it had been crumpled into a ball, she could still pry it open.

Merely pulling seemed insufficient, however.

Fei Wennan sat firmly, as if glued to his seat, refusing to move his legs. Song Jixing had to physically hoist him out like a chicken.

In comparison, Ah Huang was far more obedient.

Seeing its master exit the car, it too crawled out.

To prevent the car from exploding again and causing further harm, Song Jixing carried Fei Wennan around fifty meters away.

The vehicle behind Song Jixing had also stopped on the beach, and she handed Fei Wennan over to the crew members before leaving without a word.

The support staff would handle the rest, so she didn't need to worry too much.

That evening, the local news broadcast reported on this incident, with the authorities not concealing the details.

The anchor, with her sweet voice, reported on the car explosion at the beach, where two criminal suspects had taken a hostage and a Spirit-embodying dog.

The suspects had been neutralized on the scene, and the hostage was receiving active treatment. She urged the public to promptly contact the Special Operations Center if they encountered any Spirit energy-related situations, and to avoid excessive disclosure to protect their identities.

Of course, there were also comments from relevant leaders, assuring the public that they would protect the lives and safety of the people. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the n0vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

However, the news did not disclose the condition of the hostage.

Song Jixing's first stop was Z City.

This time, she needed to survey several locations, detect the impression factors of the Teleportation Formation sites, and set up basic Spirit gathering formations.

Although Spirit Stones are a renewable resource, they grow rather slowly, so it's best to conserve them when possible.

Spiritual energy, on the other hand, is a cleaner and more efficient energy source. Although merely setting up Spirit gathering formations may not be enough to sustain the operation of the entire Teleportation Formation, having a small water pipe constantly flowing is still better than nothing.

At the construction site in the capital, Song Jixing unexpectedly ran into Feng Juechen. After inquiring about his recent situation and learning that he had been hauling bricks and shoveling rubble at the construction site, Song Jixing promptly assigned him the task of designing the interior of the Teleportation Formation chamber.

After all, this was a major national project under global scrutiny, and everyone was working overtime.

The capital's Teleportation Formation was being built at the terminal station of a rather desolate subway line. Once this Teleportation Formation was established, the surrounding property prices would undoubtedly skyrocket once again.

The Teleportation Formation in Z City, on the other hand, was being built about ten kilometers away from a Spirit Stone mine, on a relatively flat open area. Although it lacked a subway station, it had the advantage of being in proximity to sprawling Spirit Stone veins. It was only ten kilometers from the city center, with access to the highway just three kilometers away.

In summary, it was conveniently located for travel between the north and south.

On a pleasant morning, after Song Jixing had set up the Teleportation Formations at both ends, she softly declared, "It's done," under the watchful eyes of numerous workers.

The group of workers all had excited expressions on their faces, but none dared to make a sound.

After all, it was their first time witnessing a Teleportation Formation, and they had no experience or knowledge of how to inspect it.

Song Jixing scanned the workers present and suggested, "Why don't we test it out?"

"Test it!"

"We can test it!"

They all nodded vigorously.

The area of the Teleportation Formation was not particularly large, only about two hundred square meters. It had no weight limit – as long as a person stood on it, they could be teleported to the other end of the formation.

Activating the formation required a certain amount of Spiritual energy, and the more people present, the more energy would be consumed.

After all the workers had gathered within the area, two silvery-white barriers automatically emerged from the ground, encircling the formation twice to separate it from the ordinary surface.

A pleasant female voice echoed from overhead, "Teleportation countdown: thirty seconds. Please stand within the designated Teleportation area, remain still, and minimize movement. Countdown: 25 seconds... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1."
