Chapter 235 Calculating Gains (1)

Xiao Yuanfang!

One of the three second-grade experts of the Flying Lion army.

Apart from Xiao Yuanfang, Su Jingxing also sensed another second-grade expert, Zhou Leng.

But Su Jingxing didn't recognize the third person who was tracking him.

However, he was most probably one of the five third-grade experts.

Su Jingxing had no idea why these three people were following him.

But he assumed it must be related to Liu Chenglong, the Rising Dragon Saber King.

After all, Su Jingxing had inherited Liu Chenglong's Martial Art True Intent, the Sishui Horned Dragon and was now slightly "related" to Xiao Yuanfang, Zhou Leng, and the others.

However, such a relationship was not reliable at all.

If anything went wrong, Xiao Yuanfang, Zhou Leng, and the others might even find trouble with Su Jingxing.

This was because Su Jingxing had broken into the Mausoleum of Prince Qin and destroyed it, indirectly causing Liu Chenglong's physical body to perish.

Under such circumstances, Su Jingxing didn't want to interact with them.

As for subduing the Flying Lion army and becoming their boss like Liu Chenglong,

Su Jingxing had never thought of that!

Because it was unrealistic.

Liu Chenglong had been dead for more than 400 years. Su Jingxing had merely inherited his Martial Art True Intent.

He was neither Liu Chenglong's descendant nor Liu Chenglong's disciple. At most, he was Liu Chenglong's "corpse collector.

What about Xiao Yuanfang, Zhou Leng, Wan Sansi, and the rest?

Second-grade experts! Which martial artist in the top ranks was not a genius?

Geniuses were all proud. How could they take orders from Su Jingxing, a martial artist from a new era who barged into the Mausoleum of Prince Qin, and was just lucky enough to inherit his Martial Art True Intent?

This martial artist was only in the "third-grade"!

It was impossible and unrealistic.

In any case, Su Jingxing had never thought about this. He didn't even have any similar thoughts.

Therefore, Su Jingxing had no idea what Kang Shaoyu and the others were planning.

After returning home, he washed up and changed his clothes. Su Jingxing took out the Function Cards he had extracted and counted the gains from this operation.

During this exploration of the Crimson Moon Martial Sage's underground palace, the others found nothing, and some even lost their lives.

Su Jingxing, however, had gains. A significant amount at that.

He checked the cards in a backward order. The first card was extracted from the Bloodseeker Beast King

Holding it in his hand, he read the description.

Doppelganger Card!

Another new card.

The function of this card also surprised Su Jingxing greatly.

As the name suggested, the Doppelganger Card meant that after it was unlocked, one could have an additional doppelganger.

Doppelgangers, not manifestations.

Su Jingxing could condense more than 20 true energy manifestations, but they could only be used as disruptions. Listening, transmitting information, fighting, and so on were completely out of the question.

When using true energy manifestations to collect information, Su Jingxing even had to monitor them from a distance.

However, doppelgangers were not so troublesome.

Or rather, the ability of the doppelganger was the same as Su Jingxing's main body.

Eating, sleeping, cultivating, and thinking were all doable.

Apart from sharing the same soul, they were completely independent in other aspects.

This doppelganger was especially special.

Its name was Blood Doppelganger. Perhaps it was because he had extracted it from the Bloodseeker Beast King.

The Blood Doppelganger had a powerful ability, and that was to become stronger by absorbing Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

All flesh and blood lifeforms possessed Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

The difference between them was that some had more of it, while some had less.

For example, a person's Blood Elemental Essence Energy was more than ten times more than that of a chicken.

There was no need for the Blood Doppelganger to cultivate. As long as it continuously absorbed Blood Elemental Essence Energy, it could continue to become stronger. As for the method of absorbing Blood Elemental Essence Energy, the Blood Doppelganger was innately equipped with it.

Hmm, perhaps it was because of the cheat

ability.

The Blood Doppelganger could only absorb Blood Elemental Essence Energy after death.

Simply put, it could only absorb it from corpses!

Of course, there was another prerequisite, and that was that there had to be blood in the corpse.

The fresh blood that flowed out of the body could be absorbed immediately. After a certain amount of time, it would lose its effect.

A corpse that had its blood drained could not be absorbed.

This could be seen from the name, Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

When a person died, their essence energy would naturally dissipate.

Even so, this absorption method was very convenient for Su Jingxing. As a member of the crematorium, Su Jingxing could absorb the Blood Elemental Essence Energy in corpses every day. The range of absorption was very wide, within a radius of a hundred meters.

Even if most of the corpses that were sent back to the crematorium were almost drained of blood, Su Jingxing could still follow the Corpse Collection Team to the scene.

Therefore, it would not take much effort for the Blood Doppelganger to become stronger. Su Jingxing didn't know how powerful the Blood Doppelganger could ultimately become in the end.

It was not mentioned in the card's description.

As it was a doppelganger, the way to unlock this card was also different from other cards. Su Jingxing had to condense a drop of blood and essence, wrap it with his mental power to touch the card before he could unlock it and obtain the Blood Doppelganger. Su Jingxing was in no hurry to unlock it. After reading the information, he was pleasantly surprised and emotional for a while before putting down the card. He would unlock it later.

He picked up the second card and put it down a moment later.

Equipment Card!

The second last card extracted from a Bloodseeker Beast was an Equipment Card.

The reward inside was a mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

It wasn't Bloodseeker Essence Energy, but Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

The Blood Elemental Essence Energy that Blood Doppelganger just so happened to need!

Great!

"To think that after extraction, the Bloodseeker Essence Energy has turned into Blood Elemental Essence Energy!"

Su Jingxing was overjoyed.

It was understandable since the Bloodseeker Essence Energy was a type of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

This was as good as the cheat ability refining the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

An Equipment Card, a mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

Su Jingxing quickly checked the remaining cards one by one.

Chapter 236 Calculating Gains (2)

In the end, he obtained 36 Equipment Cards, each containing a mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

He had made a killing!

With these 36 masses of Blood Elemental Essence Energy, once the Blood Doppelganger was unlocked, it could probably be raised directly to the middle ranks.

In other words, it would possess blood true energy!

Once released, blood energy would surge. It was extremely stimulating, explosive, and destructive.

If I can kill all the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley and extract more than a thousand drops of Blood Elemental Essence Energy to be absorbed and become stronger, how powerful will the Blood Doppelganger be?

Hu!

He took a deep breath and suppressed his restless mind.

Su Jingxing couldn't contain his excitement.

"Calm down, calm down!

"The Bloodseeker Beasts are sealed in the valley. With the array formation guarding it, we can't even enter, let alone kill them.

"I should take my time to strengthen my Blood Doppelganger. There's no hurry, no hurry!" Su Jingxing took deep breaths and exhaled. After a long time, he regained his composure. Other than the Equipment Card, there were other cards.

For example, a Deduction Card with five deduction chances.

Every deduction of this Deduction Card had a 50% success rate.

Su Jingxing was very satisfied with this probability and number of chances.

Clearly, the deceased he had extracted was very talented when he was alive. Not only did he create a lot of martial arts, they were also very powerful.

Only such people could give Deduction Cards with many chances and high probabilities of success.

Another example was a first-grade expert, the leader leading the Ghost Ride team this time. The person who had escaped the underground palace with great difficulty and was ganged up on by Wan Sansi, Xiao Yuanfang, and Zhou

Leng.

Su Jingxing extracted a Skill Card from him.

It did not contain a secret martial art, but a secret ability.

Myriad Transformations!

A first-grade expert had rich true essence and Martial Art True Intent that could be separated from the physical body. It was possible to extract all kinds of amazing martial arts and abilities from them.

The Myriad Transformations secret ability was extremely valuable. It was unique, efficient, and magical.

au

as because it could change the skin color of the human body, cause bones to shrink or extend, hair to grow, internal organs to move around, and so on.

A man could even turn into a woman.

Of course, not a real woman, but someone who had shrunk the male sexual organs into the abdomen.

Most importantly, it could also change a martial artist's breathing, aura and vitality.

This was extremely important.

A person's appearance could be changed using masks, and disguises, but his breathing, aura, and vitality were extremely difficult to change.

Even Su Jingxing, who cultivated the Ghost Python Breath-holding Technique, could only restrain his aura instead of changing it.

However, the secret ability, Myriad Transformations could really transform a person entirely!

During the transformation process, true energy would be consumed.

The more changes there were, the more energy was expended.

Once the transformation was successful, it would be fixed in the future.

Even if one died, he would not return to his original appearance.

This also meant that the subsequent maintenance after the transformation would not require internal force or true energy.

With this, Su Jingxing would no longer have to worry about being recognized when he used his aliases.

Yang Jian, Jiang Ziya, Li Jing, Guest Elder Lin.

He could turn into whoever he wanted to be.

Great!

Holding the card, Su Jingxing experienced the mysteries of the information. After a while, he put the card away and set it aside.

Six of the remaining cards were True Energy Cards. They contained 11, 13, 15, 18, 16, and 12 years of true energy cultivation respectively.

None of them were less than 10 years.

Without a doubt, the corpses that these cards were extracted from were all in the fourth-grade.

Many people had died in the battle to stop the Bloodseeker Beasts from leaving the valley.

Su Jingxing didn't pay attention to who they were, but he figured that they were mainly from the Prefecture Army.

He kept all six True Energy Cards as spares. Su Jingxing held the last card in his hand and read the information.

Divine Defense Card!

"What card is this?"

Su Jingxing held onto the card with a strange expression.

The last card was extracted from the corpse of the Crimson Moon Martial Sage, Yue Dongliu!

Back then, when he was extracting it, he received a notification that it was a 1000-year Great Return Remains.

This meant that Yue Dongliu's physical body was also covered in true essence, which was why it could remain intact for a thousand years.

Yet the card extracted was a strange Divine Defense Card.

Su Jingxing extracted a Transcendent Body Card from Liu Chenglong's corpse

When it came to Yue Dongliu, a Divine Defense Card.

The function of this Divine Defense Card was very strange. After unlocking it, it would stay in one's sea of consciousness and be nourished through soul power before finally hatching an Essence Soul.

Essence Soul?

What is that?

Su Jingxing could understand the soul.

What was an Essence Soul then? "Could it be a soul related ultimate art?"

After some thought, Su Jingxing decided to temporarily treat it as a soul-type trump card.

Yue Dongliu was a Transcendent-grade Martial Sage.

Other than knowing that he could live for 360 years, Su Jingxing didn't know about any other abilities of his.

But he figured they shouldn't be bad and were most likely related to the soul.

This was why he had extracted the Divine Defense Card.

With this in mind, Su Jingxing unlocked the card.

Whoosh!

A white light flashed before his eyes. Before Su Jingxing could see clearly, a thought suddenly appeared in his mind.

No, it couldn't be said to be a thought or a message.

Su Jingxing couldn't figure out what it was.

It was located in his sea of consciousness, motionless. Strands of soul power automatically enveloped it.

Su Jingxing could not sense anything for a while.

Based on his intuition, he was certain that it was related to his physical body, soul, mind, and will!

At first glance, it seemed to be his own Martial Art True Intent?

Su Jingxing refused to believe it. He manifested his Martial Art True Intent and sensed the changes in it.

It was indeed closely related to one's physical body, soul, mind, and will. They guided one another and blended together. Apart from that, there was also a mysterious force involved.

This power came from… the void! Yes, the void.

It was not worldly energy or the power of nature, but an endless, boundless void!

The power that came from the void penetrated deep into his sea of consciousness. Under the nourishment of his soul power, some unknown change occurred.

Finally, it hatched an Essence Soul!

What is this Essence Soul? It's probably not as simple as a soul related ultimate art.

Su Jingxing retracted his Martial Art True Intent and fell into deep thought.

After a long while, he suppressed his thoughts and sensed the changes in it.

According to Su Jingxing's current soul power reserves, it would take about a month to hatch an Essence Soul.

If his soul power increased within this month, the required duration would be shortened.

Of the two ways to increase soul power, other than using true fluid to nourish the soul, other heavenly treasures were not easy to obtain.

For this, Su Jingxing didn't think too much about it and put it aside for the time being.

Instead, he took out the Skill Card and unlocked the secret ability, Myriad Transformations.

He first familiarized himself with the transformation method. Moments later, he removed the human skin mask from his face and expended his true energy to begin his first transformation.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

His bones shifted, his organs shifted, and his skin propped up… As his hair turned long and white, his facial features changed bit by bit. In less than five minutes, Su Jingxing completed his first transformation.

He turned into an old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion.

Jiang Ziya!

Walking to the mirror, Su Jingxing looked at "Jiang Ziya" and thought to himself.

Amazing If he didn't know that this was his own self, Su Jingxing wouldn't have recognized him.

The "Jiang Ziya" in the mirror was nothing like Su Jingxing's true form.

Not to mention his breathing and aura, even his eyes had changed.

With such a level of transformation, as long as one did not use the same martial art, others would not associate them together.

In short, cool!

Crack! Crack!

He continued to shift his bones and change his hair.

Moments later, Su Jingxing transformed into "Yang Jian", Uncle Jiao's(1) younger version of Erlang was stunningly handsome. Crack! Crack!

He continued to expend his true energy and transformed into "Li Jing". This time, the yellow-faced burly man's appearance was clearly revealed. Like the same for others, it was impossible to determine whether it was real or fake.

Su Jingxing transformed into all three aliases. He memorized their breathings, auras, facial features, and figures.

Finally, Su Jingxing returned to his original state.

As for Guest Elder Lin, Su Jingxing did not plan to use him anymore.

He took some time to get used to his body.

After resting for a while, he took out the Doppelganger Card.

Following the steps, Su Jingxing condensed a drop of blood and essence and wrapped it with his mental power to touch the card.

Swish!

A dazzling blood glow suddenly blossomed. When Su Jingxing got a clear look, a blood-colored body that was the same height as him appeared before him.

This body had no facial features, and beneath the blood-red skin, there were no organs inside.

Su Jingxing could clearly sense everything about it with his thoughts.

Including…

Chapter 237 Yue Dongliu Is Still Alive?

"Looking" at himself!

Although the Blood Doppelganger did not have eyes yet, its unique senses allowed it to "see" the outside world the same.

Su Jingxing was standing face to face with it, looking right into its eyes.

Hmm, this feels weird.

Without "looking" further, Su Jingxing took out the Equipment Card, unlocked it, and obtained a mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

Just as it floated in his palm–

Swish!

Without any movement, the Blood Doppelganger guided an invisible force to wrap around the Blood Elemental Essence Energy and enter its body.

Immediately, the inside of the doppelganger without any organs or bones stirred. Like a surging river, ripples formed. Even though it quickly calmed down, Su Jingxing could sense that the Blood Doppelganger had gained an additional force.

This force was different from internal force and true energy, but more like pure blood energy. However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that it was more condensed, thick, and domineering than pure blood energy. It was indeed domineering, though Su Jingxing might have sensed wrongly.

After adapting for a while, Su Jingxing took out the second Equipment Card and unlocked it to obtain the Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

This time, the Blood Doppelganger was in no hurry to absorb it directly into its body. Instead, its facial features moved, producing eyes, nose, and mouth. Then, the essence energy entered through its mouth.

After which, it slowly sensed the changes after the Blood Elemental Essence entered its body.

The most important thing was to absorb it.

Su Jingxing realized that the Blood Doppelganger was absorbing not just in one area, but using the entire body.

It was an energy doppelganger to begin with. Once a mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy entered, it was immediately dispersed and split into countless wisps that were absorbed and digested by the entire body, strengthening its blood body.

Therefore, the Blood Doppelganger's strength would increase with every mass of Blood Elemental Essence Energy it absorbed.

As for blood true energy… It couldn't use it yet. Even if it did, it wouldn't be true energy.

When it had truly absorbed the Blood Elemental Essence Energy, Su Jingxing realized that this doppelganger was not simple.

Previously, he thought that after absorbing too much Blood Elemental Essence Energy, the essence energy could evolve into true energy.

Just like how martial artists first cultivated internal force before converting internal force to true energy.

Now, he realized that this path did not fit the Blood Doppelganger's way of becoming stronger.

Apart from having great strength, even though the blood energy fluctuations circulated by the Blood Doppelganger were very similar to true energy, it was actually more outstanding than true energy.

When the time came, impersonating true energy would be no problem, but the power unleashed would be even stronger than that from true energy. Because the Blood Doppelganger was an energy body.

Su Jingxing came up with a thought.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! The Blood Doppelganger suddenly shrunk, turning from a human into a sphere.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

The sphere continued to shrink, becoming smaller and smaller.

From the size of a basketball to the size of a volleyball, from the size of a volleyball to the size of an egg At the end, it was only the size of a table tennis ball.

How big was a table tennis ball?

He could easily hold it and carry it with him, let alone store it in his palm space.

Su Jingxing no longer had to worry about being discovered.

The Bloodseeker Beast King is awesome!

The Bloodseeker Beast King most likely also had similar abilities.

Its massive body could shrink into a blood-colored ball that floated around, impossible to guard against.

Unfortunately, it had been beaten back into the Bloodseeker Essence Energy at the very beginning

That the Blood Doppelganger had inherited this ability was naturally a convenience for Su Jingxing. Swish! Swish! Swish!

Under his control, the table tennis ball-sized clone quickly enlarged and returned to its human form.

Su Jingxing unlocked the remaining Equipment Cards and obtained masses of Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

The Blood Doppelganger devoured them one by one, absorbing and strengthening itself in an orderly manner. When he unlocked all the Equipment Cards and all the Blood Elemental Essence Energy had been absorbed,

Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger to normalize its skin, facial features, and hair.

In other words, it was like a normal person!

It put on a set of a shirt and pants. Without circulating its blood energy, it was no different from an ordinary person. Under his mental control, Su Jingxing could even easily simulate his heartbeat and breathing

Pa!

The Blood Doppelganger punched out with all its might.

Su Jingxing's main body received the punch and carefully sensed it. It was almost equivalent to the strength of an ordinary sixth-grade martial artist with about 20 years of true energy cultivation.

Bam!

His main body punched out and smashed the doppelganger's head. Bang! Bang! Bang! With three consecutive punches, he destroyed the doppelganger's body.

Feeling pain, his doppelganger collapsed and turned into a ball of blood-colored liquid.

Su Jingxing's sensed the situation. It was injured, mainly due to the dissipation of blood energy.

The pain did not come from his body, but from his mind. It was a pricking pain in the consciousness.

Even so, this experiment made Su Jingxing ecstatic.

Immortal!

In a sense, the Blood Doppelganger was an immortal body!

As long as there was sufficient blood energy, the Blood Clone could recover no matter how many times it exploded.

Of course, every time it exploded, the strength it possessed post-recovery would decrease slightly.

This was normal. The necessary expenditure could not be avoided.

Su Jingxing was more concerned about how much expenditure was required for each of such similar situations.

For example, how much would it consume if it was burnt in a fire?

How much would it consume when submerged in water?

And similarly, for electrocution?

Su Jingxing immediately experimented with any possible encounters.

He tried everything he could think of before stopping. His face lit up with joy.

Burning, drowning, burying, electrocution… Su Jingxing committed all the possibilities he came up with and expenditure data he obtained from experimenting to memory. These were the key, the key to "immortality"!

It wasn't that the Blood Doppelganger was truly indestructible in a fire.

If the temperature was high enough, the Blood Doppelganger would also turn into nothingness if it burned for too long.

The same went for drowning and electrocution.

Su Jingxing's experiments were meant to grasp the extent.

As long as it did not exceed a certain extent, the Blood Doppelganger would not "die".

"An immortal doppelganger? Tsk, even a Martial Sage wouldn't have this ability, right?"

Su Jingxing was overjoyed.

Speaking of Martial Sages, Su Jingxing suddenly thought of Yue Dongliu.

Previously, in the underground palace, he was either busy exploring or intercepting the Bloodseeker Beasts.

Now that he had calmed down and thought about it carefully, he realized that there was something wrong with Yue Dongliu.

More accurately, a questionable point!

Being the first to bear the brunt, since the underground palace was the place to seal the Bloodseeker Beasts, why would there still be a "key" to it?

On the three stone tablets, there were a breathing technique, a military manual, and a heavenly secret art.

Why did he set them to manifest the seal location and open the entrance to the underground palace?

Yue Dongliu had guarded the seal with his own body. That was indeed noble and admirable.

But why did he leave behind three stone tablets?

Wouldn't it be better to seal off the underground palace eternally?

"Is he still alive?"

Su Jingxing's heart skipped a beat.

Su Jingxing didn't know what abilities a Martial Sage had.

No one except a Martial Sage would know.

At the Martial Sage level, it did not matter whether one had a physical body or not.

Associating this with the suspicious points in the legacy underground palace, Yue Dongliu, this Martial Sage, might really be alive! "Tss…"

At this thought, Su Jingxing sucked in a cold breath of air.

Green Cloud Mountain Range.

In a dark mountain stream.

"Hu!"

A black shadow suddenly flashed. With a splat, blood splattered in the air.

Pa da!

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard.

A thin forest wolf lay in a pool of blood, its limbs twitching.

In the wolf's open eyes, the last thing it saw was a blood-colored Mutated Beast walking towards it with a disgusted and greedy gaze…

Chapter 238 A Single Diagram to Break 10,000 Array Formations!

"Maybe Yue Dongliu is still alive?"

Tsk!

After a brief moment of shock, Su Jingxing regained his composure and fell into deep thought.

If Yue Dongliu isn't dead, then everything in the underground palace might have been his doing. Including leaving behind the legacy stone tablets. That was also intentional.

Even releasing the Bloodseeker Beasts was within Yue Dongliu's calculations.

This fellow…

Shaking his head, Su Jingxing suppressed the thought to dig deeper.

No matter what, the Bloodseeker Beasts were now under control.

If Su Jingxing could think of the suspicious points of this operation, so would others. As always, martial artists in the top ranks were almost all geniuses.

No one was a fool.

After returning, calming down and thinking back to this operation, they would surely be able to spot the suspicious points just as Su Jingxing had. Therefore, Su Jingxing had no business in what Yue Dongliu was plotting. The Martial Suppression Office, the Prefecture Army, and even the Yu Nation's cabinet would investigate.

The most important thing before Su Jingxing was how to gather enough Blood Elemental Essence Energy to make the Blood Doppelganger stronger.

Currently, it's strength of a sixth-grade martial artist was very powerful to ordinary people.

But in the eyes of fourth-grade and third-grade martial artists, it was nothing.

It was too little and too slow to collect Blood Elemental Essence Energy in the crematorium or at murder scenes.

After much thought, he decided it was better to go to the slaughterhouse.

There was very little Blood Elemental Essence Energy in chickens and ducks, but livestock possessed a significant amount.

Of course, the best way was to kill the Bloodseeker Beasts and extract a large amount of Blood Elemental Essence Energy directly.

Unfortunately, after the Bloodseeker Beasts were killed, they would dissipate into Bloodseeker Essence Energy, which the other Bloodseeker Beasts would absorb and become stronger.

In the situation where he didn't know how to refine the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, killing the Bloodseeker Beasts would instead increase the threat to his safety. Moreover, the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array wasn't that easy to break.

Su Jingxing wanted to try breaking the array formation, but he had no idea how the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array operated. He had no idea where to start.

Troops from the Prefecture Army would certainly be stationed around the valley now.

All kinds of surveillance equipment, fighter jets, and cannons were set up all around the valley as ambushes.

The experts in charge were at least in the third-grade.

This was to prevent the Bloodseeker Beasts from escaping and also to prevent outsiders from barging into the valley.

It was unrealistic to get into contact with the complete Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array at this time.

As for approaching Pu Mingyue to learn about array formations?

Even more unrealistic.

If he really went to look for Pu Mingyue, he would be confessing that he had ill intentions towards the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley.

Su Jingxing didn't want to be targeted by the Martial Suppression Office, the Prefecture Army, or even the Hundred Flower Valley because of this.

I might as well take my time to learn how to break the array formation.

Mm, I can go to the Xuantian University Library to look for relevant information.

The Myriad Treasures Court's database was bigger and more complete, but no one knew where it was.

The Xuantian University Library was different. Other than the ones on the top level, most of the books could be borrowed.

Although only Xuantian University students could borrow them, many people outside the university could too.

For example, the upper echelons of the major factions could borrow them just by giving notice.

Su Jingxing didn't intend to approach anyone else to use their connections. It's just becoming student of Xuantian University. Simple!

He made up his mind.

At night, Su Jingxing went out and flew in the air. He first found a slaughterhouse and released his Blood Doppelganger and shrank it to the size of a table tennis ball. Controlled by Su Jingxing's mind, it entered the slaughterhouse and hid in a corner, absorbing the Blood Doppelganger that leaked out after the pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese were slaughtered. Because there weren't many of them, coupled with the fresh blood that splattered out during the slaughter, no one noticed when strands of Blood Elemental Essence Energy were absorbed.

Of course, just in case, when the Blood Doppelganger absorbed the Blood Doppelganger, it would always move under the tables or in the corners. It specifically avoided the surveillance cameras to ensure that it wouldn't be discovered.

As such, wisps of Blood Elemental Essence Energy were guided by an invisible force and absorbed by the Blood Doppelganger. Little by little, they accumulated!

On this side.

Su Jingxing's main body headed straight for Xuantian University.

He entered the campus through the air and found a rooftop to land on. His perception spread and looked down at the ground, even listening to the situation in the building beneath his feet.

Moments later, he found a target.

In the next moment, his figure flashed as he dashed towards a small forest. He knocked a boy who was swinging his arms and legs, mm, no, accurately speaking, he was secretly practicing martial arts.

Then, accompanied by cracks, his body moved and shrunk, transforming into the appearance of this boy. He changed into the other party's clothes, picked up his student pass, carried the boy, and left the small forest. From the sky, he rushed out of the school and returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

He left the boy at home, covered his face, stuffed his mouth, and tied him up with rope to make sure there was no future trouble.

Then, he returned to Xuantian University and entered the library.

After arriving upstairs, he followed the directions and headed straight for the array formations area.

Naturally, the books on array formations that were placed on the bookshelves for others to borrow wouldn't go too deep.

Su Jingxing didn't have high hopes of finding them downstairs either.

Pretending to be a student of Xuantian University was just making it more convenient for him to work.

After making a round, he did not find ancient manuals on breaking array formations that he wanted.

Su Jingxing decisively went up to the top floor. He restrained his aura to the maximum and released his perception to listen to the movements of the guards on the top level.

It turned out that the one guarding the top level tonight was not the fourth-grade Director, Liang Yiqing, but a fifth-grade and two sixth-grade martial artists.

The three of them were stationed at the entrance of the top level.

After confirming that there was no one else, Su Jingxing immediately appeared and exposed himself in the vision of the two sixth-grade martial artists guarding outside.

"What are you doing here?" One of the sixth-grade martial artists left his seat and stepped forward to stop Su Jingxing. He warned, "The top level is not open. Don't you know…" Before the word "that" could leave his mouth, his entire body fell to the ground with a plop. He was covered in sweat and couldn't move or

speak.

Suppression! Su Jingxing directly mobilized 300 years of true energy cultivation to form a terrifying suppression that covered half of the top level.

Not only were the two sixth-grade martial artists suppressed on the spot, the fifth-grade martial artist keeping guard inside was also instantly restrained. All of them collapsed to the ground, unable to move or speak.

Su Jingxing did not mobilize 500 years of cultivation because he was afraid of crushing them to death.

300 years of cultivation was just right.

Therefore, Su Jingxing coolly walked into the library that he had visited once in front of the three of them to search for books on array formations.

Reading rapidly, he walked past the rows of bookshelves quickly.

Suddenly, Su Jingxing stopped in his tracks and his gaze fell on a book.

He picked up the book and looked at the cover.

The Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams!

He flipped to the first page and quickly browsed through the content. His eyes lit up.

Finally, he found it. This copy of the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams did not contain any method to break the array formation, nor did it contain any elements of the array formation. There was only a bold and crazy guess, a set of theories!

According to the person who wrote this book, all array formations in the world were completed using a basic array formation.

Then, targeting this basic array formation, was there also a route of breaking array formations?

This route could be made up of several formulas, templates, and proposals.

Targeting this point, the author racked his brains and finally came up with a set of theories.

A single diagram to break 10,000 array formations!

Chapter 239 The Bloodseeker Beasts Have Disappeared? (1)

In the legends of Earth Star, there was a body-tempering expert who could break all techniques with one strength.

Relying on pure physical strength, he destroyed the lower ranks, crushed the middle ranks, and wiped out the top ranks with his fist! For thousands of years, there were those who relied on brute force to beat up the lower ranks, and there were also those who crushed the middle ranks.

However, there were none who could destroy top-ranked martial artists with their fists.

Because once Martial Art True Intent was released, no matter how strong one's physical strength was, they would have to kneel down.

Martial Art True Intent targeted the soul directly. Without a strong soul, no matter how strong his physical body was tempered, he could only watch helplessly.

Even transcendent body martial artists and bloodline martial artists needed powerful souls.

Therefore, breaking all techniques with one strength was a legend.

Now someone wanted to break 10,000 array formations with a single diagram, that was also wishful thinking.

Array formations were ever-changing, especially maze arrays and trapping arrays. They were changing almost every moment.

Under such circumstances, how could one break 10,000 array formations with a single diagram? Yet, this Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams had done it!

At the very least, in theory, the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams had done it. It could break all array formations that were developed using basic array formations as their foundation.

Of course, the reason why theories were theories was because of its imagination, breakthrough, and creativity. There was a reasonable outline and framework.

To others, this framework was just for reading and referencing purposes. It was unrealistic to materialize it.

But Su Jingxing was different.

He had the Deduction Card!

It was even a Deduction Card with five deduction chances, with a 50% probability of success each time.

The complete theory of the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams could become real after being deducted in his hands.

If this were to really happen, Su Jingxing wouldn't even need to fear 90% of the array formations in the future.

90% of the array formations in the world were extensions of basic array formations.

The Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array also happened to be one of them!

So.

Su Jingxing took the after Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams without standing on ceremony, turned around, and walked out of the library. He left leisurely in front of the three guards.

He went down from the top level and entered the stairwell. After avoiding the cameras, he retracted his suppression, opened the window, and soared into the sky.

Back at his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain, he picked up the boy who was still unconscious and sent him back to the small forest where he was knocked out.

He changed their clothes and returned his student pass. With a series of cracks, Su Jingxing transformed back into himself.

Hearing the sound of movement in the distance, he tapped his toes and flew into the night sky.

Back home again, Su Jingxing took out the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams. He first memorized all the contents and simulated them in his mind. Then, he unlocked the Deduction Card and began deducing.

The first time, failure.

The second attempt still failed.

The third attempt, still a failure.

The fourth time…

Success!

The Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams that could break 10,000 array formations with a single diagram had actually been deduced!

With one remaining deduction opportunity, Su Jingxing decisively used it on the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art.

Even though the Earth Origin volume wasn't complete, with only half of it available, the ability in the Earth Origin volume to mobilize all the energy around one's body could also be done using Martial Art True Intent!

By consuming soul power and activating Martial Art True Intent, one could control the power of the universe to fight.

This had the same effect as the Earth Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art. In fact, it was even stronger. This was because when the Martial Art True Intent guided the power of the universe, the range of impact was even wider.

The Heaven Origin volume was different.

It was a mental killer move, which was exactly what Su Jingxing needed.

Currently, the Heaven Trampling Elephant could only defend passively and could not be released externally.

If he could successfully deduce the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art, he would be able to make up for this weakness.

Using soul power as a saber to kill invisibly!

The last remaining deduction opportunity was used on the Heaven Origin volume.

And it turned out…

He succeeded halfway!

He deduced half of the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art.

Su Jingxing tried to comprehend it and realized that he could also cultivate this half of the Heaven Origin volume.

It was mainly because he had enough soul power.

Those with average soul power could not cultivate half of the Heaven Origin volume.

With that, Su Jingxing happily took out the Martial Arts Practice Card he had prepared earlier.

This Function Card with three years of practice time was perfect for cultivating the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art.

He unlocked the card and circulated his soul power in his sea of consciousness. Su Jingxing began practicing his saber techniques in the Martial Arts Practice Space. From time to time, he would condense his soul power into a saber and slash soundlessly through the air.

When the Martial Arts Practice Space collapsed, Su Jingxing had already cultivated the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art to the Advanced level.

This was already the end because there was only half of the volume. If he wanted to increase his control, he would have to complete the remaining half.

However, the Deduction Card was not that easy to obtain.

Su Jingxing was already very satisfied that the Heaven Origin volume had reached the Advanced level.

This level of control was enough for Su Jingxing to transform his soul power into a saber and release it externally to kill enemies.

As for how far the distance could go and how lethal it was, he didn't know.

Because there was no target.

He couldn't just find a random person to kill from a distance and conduct an experiment, could he?

Su Jingxing wouldn't do such an unethical thing.

If he really wanted to experiment, he would do so on Bloodseeker Beasts.

After successfully deducing the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams, Su Jingxing decided to make a trip back to the valley.

Of course, it wasn't to undo the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array, but to enter it!

Find a few lone Blood Elemental Essence Energy and kill them to extract their Blood Elemental Essence Energy.

Just do it.

The next night, just as the sky turned dark, Su Jingxing, who had gone to the slaughterhouse to pick up his Blood Doppelganger, took off from the back mountain. With six-fold sonic speed, he headed straight for the depths of the Green Cloud Mountain Range. As he approached the valley shrouded by the giant lotus, he descended from the sky and circulated the Ghost Python Breath-holding Technique to its limits. He released his perception and enveloped his surroundings, silently approaching the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array

As expected, the Prefecture Army had set up three defensive circles around the valley.

The surveillance equipment had not been transported here in time. Only some cameras had been installed in the woods for simple surveillance.

Chapter 240 The Bloodseeker Beasts Have Disappeared? (2)

Su Jingxing easily avoided the surveillance cameras of such level and passed through the woods silently, arriving in front of the translucent screen.

Through the screen, he saw that the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley had stopped their rampage after a day and night. They had dispersed and were scattered in the valley.

A thousand Bloodseeker Beasts sounded like a lot, but when scattered in the huge valley, they were inconspicuous.

In Su Jingxing's field of vision, he only saw seven Bloodseeker Beasts, lying under trees and in the pits in twos.

Without the stimulation of blood energy, the Bloodseeker Beasts were actually very lazy.

This was good news for Su Jingxing.

After scanning his surroundings with his perception and confirming that no one was coming, Su Jingxing began to search for the "entrance" of the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array according to the successfully deduced Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams.

This "entrance" was not a real door, but a circulation route.

In a situation where one could not crack the array formation or forcefully break it, only by finding the route could one figure out the path and finally enter the array formation.

Throughout the entire process, relying on the successfully deduced Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams, Su Jingxing only took half an hour to successfully enter the "entrance."

If there were outsiders present, they would have seen Su Jingxing take three steps left, four steps right, then jump five steps, and finally disappear!

It was as if he had fallen into the void and vanished!

However, in reality, after Su Jingxing entered the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array according to the Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams, he retreated, moved left, and right according to the routes of the Eight Trigrams Array. When he stopped, that was when he had actually entered the array.

To outsiders, it would seem like Su Jingxing had walked out of thin air.

This was the wonder of array formations.

Without a deep understanding, it was impossible to understand the mysteries within.

Of course, Su Jingxing didn't learn much from experience either.

This was because he did not know how to set up array formations. All he knew was how to break them…

The Record of Array-Breaking Diagrams was only equivalent to a Master Key. It could unlock tens of thousands of locks.

But he did not know how to create locks!

Opening locks and creating locks were essentially two different matters.

Anyone with a key could do the former.

As such, Su Jingxing did not have any pride or arrogance. After entering the array formation, he calmly moved quickly to avoid being discovered by the people outside the screen.

After finding a spot to hide, he began to search for lone Bloodseeker Beasts.

He spread out his perception and scanned the area to find his target.

It was a Bloodseeker Beast lying in the collapsed hole in the ground.

Su Jingxing released his Blood Doppelganger just in case. Then, his main body and doppelganger dived in at the same time.

Buzz!

Mobilizing 500 years of true energy cultivation, he formed a terrifying pressure that enveloped the Bloodseeker Beasts.

Swish!

Soul power transformed into a blade that attacked the lazy Bloodseeker Beasts from a distance.

Both acts were carried out at the same time. The Bloodseeker Beast didn't even let out a groan before it lost consciousness.

(Card1]

The moment the notification flashed, Su Jingxing controlled his true energy to envelop the Bloodseeker Beast that had dispersed into a large mass of Bloodseeker Essence Energy, preventing it from being absorbed by the other Bloodseeker Beasts.

Unexpectedly, at this moment– Whoosh!

Under the guidance of an invisible force, the Bloodseeker Essence Energy trapped in the true energy was absorbed into the Blood Doppelganger's body!

Tsk!

In his shock, Su Jingxing cursed inwardly.

Oh no, oh no, oh no.

This is it.

The immortal doppelganger that I obtained with great difficulty is actually going to be finished in a day.

Once it absorbs the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, this doppelganger will immediately be corroded and go out of control.

Even if Su Jingxing was indignant, he would have to destroy it. Other… wise…?

"Huh???"

Su Jingxing, who was grumbling inwardly, suddenly froze.

No!

Something is wrong! The Blood Doppelganger wasn't corroded. After absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, the terrifying heretic power disappeared before it could erupt.

Mm, to put it accurately, it was dissolved by the Blood Doppelganger!

In the face of the Blood Doppelganger, the heretic power and nature within the Bloodseeker Essence Energy melted away. The Blood Doppelganger could actually dissolve the heretic nature and power…

No!

Not all heretic characteristics and power could be dissolved by the Blood Doppelganger.

Instead, the Blood Doppelganger could only dissolve heretic characteristics and power that had been mixed into blood energy.

The power of blood was the key to the doppelganger.

If the Bloodseeker Essence Energy was changed to Fireseeker Essence Energy or Thunderseeker Essence Energy, the Blood Doppelganger would not be able to dissolve its heretic characteristics and power. Instead, it would be corroded and destroyed by the power of flames and lightning!

Having figured this out, Su Jingxing was both glad and overjoyed.

"Hahaha, since it can absorb the Bloodseeker Essence Energy directly, what else am I afraid of? What else do I have to worry about?

"The one thousand Bloodseeker Beasts here are all energy to become stronger! "And I get two absorptions from each one!"

The first time was a direct absorption from the beast and the second absorption was of the Blood Elemental Essence Energy from the cards extracted.

Great!

I've struck gold this time!

Deep breaths, suppressing his excitement.

After a while, Su Jingxing regained his composure. After the Blood Doppelganger finished absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, he quietly left the hole and continued to search for his second Bloodseeker Beasts.

Although the Blood Doppelganger could dissolve the heretic characteristics and power, there was a limit to its ability to do so.

If there was too much of both, the Blood Doppelganger might end up being too full to dissolve them in time. Instead, it would be corroded, and that would be no fun.

Therefore, to be safe, it was better to deal with one Bloodseeker Beast at a time.

Soon.

The second Bloodseeker Beast was found. Su Jingxing approached it and avoided the attention of the other Bloodseeker Beasts.

Over

He first released his suppression to only cover the Bloodseeker Beast and immobilize it.

Then, he transformed his soul power into a saber and attacked from a distance. He quietly destroyed the beast and extracted a card.

Then, he swiftly moved close and gathered the Blood Doppelganger for the Blood Doppelganger to absorb and dissolve.

Moments later, everything was settled. Su Jingxing left and continued to search for the next lone Bloodseeker Beast.

The third, fourth, fifth…

Soon, more than ten Bloodseeker Beasts were ambushed and killed. The Blood Doppelganger was strengthened.

At this point, Su Jingxing did not continue.

Instead, he came out of the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array and left the periphery of the valley. He found a quiet mountain and sat cross-legged to rest and recover his soul power. He could recover essence energy by consuming Essence Energy Pills.

But not soul power.

Every time it was exhausted, he would have to rest for half a day to recover.

Su Jingxing rested for a day here.

In any case, it was difficult to take action during the day. The surveillance personnel at the periphery of the valley would carry out checks.

At night, when his soul power was fully recovered, he could continue.

So.

30 Bloodseeker Beasts, 50 Bloodseeker Beasts, 100 Bloodseeker Beasts!

200, 300, 500…

During the day, he would rest. At night, he would enter the array formation and launch sneak attacks, ambushes, and assassinations. Over and over again, he would subdue the Bloodseeker Beasts, and absorb them.

As his Blood Doppelganger absorbed more and more power, it became stronger and stronger.

As a result, the true energy in Su Jingxing's dantian was also rapidly tempered to stimulate an increase in his soul power.

With the increase in his soul power, he could condense it into three blades at a time to kill three Bloodseeker Beasts.

As a result, the speed of his operation increased.

Half of the Bloodseeker Beasts were devoured and disappeared.

Finally, it caught the attention of the Prefecture Army outside the array formation.

"What's going on? Why are there so few Bloodseeker Beasts? Did they run back to the underground palace?".

Gu Zhanlin flew in the air and looked down at the valley with a grim expression.

"I'm not sure."

A middle-aged man beside him looked equally solemn. "Half of the Bloodseeker Beasts are gone. Something must have happened!"

"We don't know what the problem is, and we can't investigate it." Gu Zhanlin was a little frustrated. "If these beasts disappear for no reason, I don't know how big of a trouble they'll cause. D*mn it, where did they go?"

"Perhaps they didn't escape, but returned to the underground palace like you said?" Xiao Yuanfang pondered.

Half of the Flying Lion army had also remained outside the valley and cooperated with the Prefecture Army to guard the array formation.

Xiao Yuanfang was also concerned about the sudden loss of half of the Bloodseeker Beasts.

If such a terrifying Mutated Beast were to escape and enter the city, it would be a disaster.

A catastrophe that no one wanted to see!

Once a catastrophe broke out, who knew how many people would die?

Therefore, they had to get to the bottom of this!

"What should we do? If there's really no other way, let's go to Head Mingyue and get her to open the array formation!" Gu Zhanlin said through gritted teeth while feeling conflicted.

"No! Are you crazy?"

Chapter 241 Third-grade!

Words rolled off middle-aged man's tongue as he cursed, "Open the array formation? Are you trying to bring doom to Qinghe City and Treasure Elephant City? "The disappearance of the Bloodseeker Beasts might be them running back into the underground palace." "What if it's not?" Gu Zhanlin was unyielding. "The Bloodseeker Beasts are not beasts without sentience. What if these beasts are plotting something? Are we going to leave them alone and let them cause trouble?"

"In any case, we can't open the array formation," the middle-aged man insisted.

He was not from the Changyang Prefecture Army. Instead, he was from the Prefecture City and had come to the Green Cloud Mountain Range under orders from the prefecture administration to cooperate with the army.

After coming to the valley and hearing about the deeds of Xiao Yuanfang and the others, he had been persuading the Flying Lion army to join the prefecture administration.

On the contrary, he wasn't very concerned about the Bloodseeker Beasts.

With the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array trapping them, the Bloodseeker Beasts wouldn't be able to escape.

Not even by digging a tunnel.

However, the more than hundred experts in the Flying Lion army were different. They would be a great boost of help.

For this, the middle-aged man, Cao Guanshan tried his best to persuade them. In the end, Wan Sansi became frustrated with him and Zhou Leng ignored him. Only Xiao Yuanfang was willing to interact with him. Of course, he was only learning about the new era through Cao Guanshan.

Although the Flying Lion army had decided to follow their Young General, there were still some matters that had to be clarified.

For example, the current distribution of major factions in Yu Nation, the direction of the cabinet, and so on.

Now that the Bloodseeker Beasts had disappeared, Gu Zhanlin was the one with the biggest headache. The reason why he suggested opening the array formation was to figure out what the missing half of the Bloodseeker Beasts were up

to.

However, while it was easy to open the array formation, it would be troublesome to close it again. If the disappearance of the Bloodseeker Beasts was an intentional act, and they were waiting for the array formation to open and then take the opportunity to escape,

Gu Zhanlin would not be able to bear the consequences. "Report it."

In the silence, Xiao Yuanfang said, "Report this matter to the cabinet. Tell them to come up with a solution as soon as possible. "If the cabinet is willing to mobilize a large number of experts to surround the valley, it's not impossible to open the array formation and enter the valley to investigate the situation." Gu Zhanlin sighed. "That's the only way."

If the cabinet really mobilized more than a thousand fourth-grade experts, there was naturally nothing to fear about the Bloodseeker Beasts when the array formation was open.

They would simply suppress one beast each!

In the silent forest.

At the top of an ancient tree that was a hundred meters tall.

Su Jingxing's main body was sitting cross-legged in the middle of a thick branch. His body was covered in a layer of silvery-black membrane that carried a fiery glow.

There was also a gentle energy flowing through his organs, bones, and tendons. Everywhere it passed, the cells seemed to be cleansed and expelled a large amount of impurities.

True essence!

After continuous tempering, the remaining misty true energy in his dantian finally turned into liquid.

In other words, true essence!

The moment his true essence became completely liquefied, Su Jingxing's Martial Art True Intent automatically manifested, covering his entire body and swimming up and down. When Su Jingxing put away his Martial Art True Intent, he realized that his perception had been strengthened again.

This strengthening was a combination of his consciousness and physical body.

His perception of worldly energy became clearer, and his understanding of the circulation of the power of nature became clearer.

From this, it could be seen that compared to reaching third-grade in terms of combat ability, doing so in terms of realm possessed even more paths to move upwards.

Su Jingxing spent more than half a year before he finally entered the third-grade. The breath that he had been hiding was mostly released.

There aren't many third-grade martial artists in Yu Nation who are 16 years old, right?

As he pondered, he put away his true essence and took out a card. He unlocked it and absorbed it.

Swish!

The attributeless true energy entered his dantian and was tempered by the Nine Steps Trampling Heaven, turning into true essence.

After his true energy completely transformed into true essence, his previous true energy cultivation of more than 800 years had been converted to more than 80 years of true essence cultivation.

A ratio of 10 to 1.

10 years of true energy cultivation could only be converted to one year of true essence cultivation.

The cultivation that he had been used to being hundreds of years suddenly became decades.

Su Jingxing wasn't used to it.

He immediately took out a backup True Energy Card and unlocked it to absorb the true energy before converting it into true essence.

The six True Energy Cards he had just extracted were the first to be unlocked, granting him 85 years of true energy cultivation.

Then, he took out the spare one from before and accumulated 182 years of true energy cultivation before converting everything into true essence.

Reaching a hundred years of true essence cultivation!

A hundred years of true essence cultivation was one of the symbols of the first-grade.

The Ethereal Sword Immortal had said that the true essence cultivation of a first-grade expert was only about a hundred years.

Third-grade, about 30 years. Second-grade, about 60 years.

Therefore, in terms of true essence cultivation, Su Jingxing was no weaker than a first-grade martial artist.

Of course, for the top ranks, true essence cultivation was only one of the symbols.

Martial Art True Intent was the foundation.

A third-grade martial artist did not need to rely on lightness skills to fly in the sky. What they relied on was Martial Art True Intent to circulate worldly energy and move their body to fly freely.

At this moment, true essence was nothing but a windbreaking oxygen suit.

However, things were different in the second-grade.

In the second-grade, true essence could materialize and become battle armor. Martial Art True Intent could invade the consciousness of others and erase their memories, turn them into puppets, protect them, assimilate their thoughts, and so on. They possessed all kinds of powerful abilities.

And in the first-grade, true essence could leave the body and not dissipate for thousands of years.

As for Martial Art True Intent… He did not know the exact changes.

Su Jingxing had never come into contact with such information, and neither did the Ethereal Sword Immortal.

But come to think of it, Martial Art True Intent in the first-grade would only be stronger than in second-grade.

Su Jingxing had the Heaven Trampling Elephant for mental defense and the Heaven Origin Saber for mental killer moves.

He might not be as good as a first-grade martial artist.

However, Su Jingxing was confident that he could fight a second-grade martial artist.

This was enough for his main body to protect himself.

As for his doppelganger…

To be honest, Su Jingxing didn't know what level the Blood Doppelganger's strength was currently at. After absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy of more than 500 Bloodseeker Beasts and the refined Blood Elemental Essence Energy, the Blood Clone was now extremely powerful.

It was impossible to tell whether it was comparable to a fourth-grade martial artist or a third-grade martial artist.

It seemed strange to hit himself at this time.

Su Jingxing thought for a moment and gave up on experimenting.

It was just becoming stronger. There was nothing to despise.

The remaining Bloodseeker Beasts would not be spared either.

Sealing these beasts in the valley was a complete waste.

Once they escaped, it would be even more disastrous.

Letting the Blood Doppelganger devour them would save so much trouble.

Half of the Bloodseeker Beasts had been killed and disappeared without a trace. The remaining Bloodseeker Beasts were no longer as easy to ambush.

Bloodseeker Beasts were intelligent.

After sensing the invisible danger, most of the remaining beasts actually ran back to the underground palace.

This gave Su Jingxing a lot of trouble with sneak attacks and assassinations. After advancing to the third-grade, Su Jingxing could release four blades at once when he executed the Heaven Origin volume of the Three Origins Saber Art.

The consciousness to kill four Bloodseeker Beasts!

However, the remaining Bloodseeker Beasts no longer spread out in pairs. Instead, they were always gathered in dozens or in several tens.

This made it troublesome to kill them, and equally troublesome to gather the Bloodseeker Essence Energy. Fortunately, the Blood Doppelganger was growing stronger and the amount of Bloodseeker Essence Energy it absorbed in one go was also increasing.

It could absorb the Bloodseeker Essence Energy from five dead Bloodseeker Beasts in one go.

Therefore, even though it was troublesome, there was still a chance…

Chapter 242 Dead Meat

Boom!

There was a loud bang.

On the first level of the underground palace, a Bloodseeker Beast exploded on the spot, turning into a cloud of Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

Swish!

Before the other Bloodseeker Beasts could absorb the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, a translucent claw imprint suddenly appeared and wrapped around the Bloodseeker Essence Energy from a distance. Then, it quickly moved backward and arrived in front of Su Jingxing. Swish! Swish!

Accompanied by a strange sound, the Bloodseeker Essence Energy that was brought here was absorbed by the egg-sized Blood Doppelganger.

After absorbing too much essence energy, the Blood Doppelganger had grown from the size of a table tennis ball to the size of an egg.

As for the claw imprint, it was a martial art called Black Wind Claw.

It was neither high nor low in terms of level, and its might could not compare to the Hundred Steps Reigning Fist.

After Su Jingxing obtained it, he kept it and did not cultivate it.

This time, in order to collect the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, he had temporarily cultivated it to the level where he could use it with ease.

The characteristic of the Black Wind Claw was that it could produce the effect of seizing through an externally released force.

Su Jingxing just needed to be able to use it. He had no expectations for its might.

Charging into the underground palace and killing his chosen target in front of the other Bloodseeker Beasts was a deliberate act.

For example, right now, after killing a Bloodseeker Beast with a single punch, extracting a card and seizing its Bloodseeker Essence Energy, Su Jingxing pointed his middle finger at the other Bloodseeker Beasts and shouted provocatively. "Come, don't you want blood energy? I have a lot here!"

As he spoke, Su Jingxing took out the deer blood he had gotten in the forest and deliberately spread it to let the blood energy float in the air.

Then, he turned around and ran towards the exit.

Roar!

The group of more than 20 Bloodseeker Beasts gathered together roared angrily and greedily as they swarmed after Su Jingxing.

In a few moments, they returned to the surface and weaved through the collapsed gullies.

Bang!

With a dull thud, Su Jingxing punched another Bloodseeker Beast to death. He extracted a card and a translucent claw imprint descended. It grabbed the Bloodseeker Essence Energy through the air and threw it to the Blood Clone to be absorbed.

His feet did not stop moving as he circled around the underground palace that was exposed to the surface.

He would circle around and destroy a Bloodseeker Beast.

Or he would dash around in the valley that resembled a ruin with the Bloodseeker Beasts that were after him.

After they were split up in batches and spread out, he took care of them one by one.

Su Jingxing's powerful soul power and rich true essence supported him to envelop ten masses of Bloodseeker Essence Energy at the same time without spilling them.

After taking care of more than 20 Bloodseeker Beasts, he then found a remote corner and released the Bloodseeker Essence Energy in batches for his Blood Doppelganger to absorb.

After absorbing all the Bloodseeker Essence Energy, he continued to go into the underground palace to lure the Bloodseeker Beasts out.

Basically, he would lure 30 to 50 Bloodseeker Beasts each time.

If there were no more than 15 Bloodseeker Beasts gathered together, he would decisively charge over and kill them all. Most of the Bloodseeker Essence Energy that they transformed into after death was wrapped in true energy, and a small portion was directly absorbed by the Blood Doppelganger.

He carried on like this until dawn and left the valley.

When night fell, he returned to the valley and lured the Bloodseeker Beasts to the surface again.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Muffled explosions sounded from time to time.

At this point, Su Jingxing no longer cared about the Prefecture Army outside the array formation.

At night, the situation in the valley could not be seen clearly from the outside.

Every time Su Jingxing attacked, his speed was fast, and afterimages flashed repeatedly.

When the people outside heard the sounds, they could only stare. On the contrary, the roars of the Bloodseeker Beasts made Gu Zhanlin feel slightly more at ease.

Since the Bloodseeker Beasts were still around, the problem wasn't a big one!

The third level of the underground palace.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Saber beams shot out, saber energy rampaged.

The Bloodseeker Beasts roared and collapsed unwillingly, turning into masses of Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

Hu hu hu!

Every time this happened, a semi-transparent claw imprint would quickly appear, separating and wrapping the Bloodseeker Essence Energy in masses without allowing any to leak out.

Roar!

The remaining Bloodseeker Beasts sprinted madly.

However, they only lasted for a few minutes before they collapsed and turned into Bloodseeker Essence Energy that was absorbed by the Blood Doppelganger.

After absorbing about another 400 Bloodseeker Beasts, the amount of Bloodseeker Essence Energy that the Blood Doppelganger could absorb at the same time increased again.

The Bloodseeker Essence Energy from 25 beasts!

Using his thoughts as control, Su Jingxing circulated his true essence to release his true energy. He was also now able to hold 20 masses at one time.

Therefore, Su Jingxing could finish off all 50 Bloodseeker Beasts in one go. There was no need to lure or divide them into groups of ten or so before killing them.

As time passed, he became increasingly fast.

Finally, the remaining 40 Bloodseeker Beasts hid back in the fifth level of the underground palace.

After the Blood Doppelganger was done absorbing, Su Jingxing walked into the destroyed passageway of the Dragon Slaying Platform and headed for the fifth level.

Preparing to harvest the last batch of Bloodseeker Beasts!

At the same time.

Outside the valley.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Ah!"

Cannon shells exploded, true energy tore through the air, and miserable cries resounded incessantly.

In the forest, on the hills and slopes.

Figures shuttled back and forth from time to time as blood splattered everywhere.

Five figures weaved and collided in midair.

Giant palm imprints, iron fist imprints, sword energies, blade energies, Martial Art True Intent of beasts, weapons, plants, and so on appeared in the air.

A terrifying pressure swept through the air, stirring up the air and destroying mountains.

Until finally–

Hu! Hu! Hu!

Three bloody figures fell from the sky and crashed towards the ground. They broke through tall trees and laid motionless on the ground. Only then did the battle end.

"Pu!"

Gu Zhanlin spat out a mouthful of blood. His face was pale as he looked at the man and woman who were slowly descending from the sky. He panted and said, "Who… who are you?!"

"Haven't you already met us?" A low and magnetic voice sounded from Gu Zhanlin's right.

Under the night sky, a man in his thirties or forties wearing a black suit, a black tie, and a black top hat walked towards Gu Zhanlin while smoking. "Already?" When Gu Zhanlin, who had turned to look at the man, heard this, the expression on his pale face changed.

"You guys are from Ghost Ride?"

Ghost Ride?

Xiao Yuanfang, who had a broken arm, frowned. His eyes flickered quickly.

"Tss! Tss!"

Cao Guanshan's face was trembling from the pain as he tugged on his wound. When he heard this, his body trembled. As the pain intensified, he felt a chill in his heart and fear appeared in his eyes.

Ghost Ride?

Why are there so many experts in Ghost Ride?!

Never mind that the man and woman who defeated the three of them were both in the second-grade.

For the middle-aged man to speak in front of the man and woman, his status was clearly higher.

In an organization like Ghost Ride, one's status would only rise as his capabilities strengthen.

In other words, this man who was dressed like he was attending a banquet was a first-grade expert!

Previously, the leader of the group from Ghost Ride who had been plotting against the Bloodseeker Beasts was in the first-grade.

The leader of this Ghost Ride who had come for revenge was also a first-grade martial artist!

Such an "evasive" organization actually had so many first-grade martial artists.

Dead meat…

Chapter 243 Why?

We're dead meat this time!

Despair rose in Cao Guanshan's heart.

They had waited almost a month for the cabinet's decision.

In the end, before the decision was made, Ghost Ride's members arrived.

Due to the fact that the Bloodseeker Beasts were trapped by the array formation, it would take time for the cabinet to make a decision. Cao Guanshan had long known this.

At least a buffer of a year's time was enough for the cabinet to discuss and come to the final decision.

After all, sealing a valley of a significant size for a long time required a large amount of resources and important treasures. Mobilizing these things required repeated thought on the cabinet's end.

In the past, such incidents also had similar procedures.

But this time, Ghost Ride actually dared to send people here again.

Whether it was for revenge or for other reasons, it caught Cao Guanshan and Gu Zhanlin off guard.

They took advantage of the night to launch a sneak attack. The troops of the Prefecture Army scattered around the valley, as well as the dozens of Flying Lions, were met with a fierce attack just as soon as they were alerted.

There weren't many Ghost Ride members, only about 30 of them.

However, all of them were either in the third-grade or peak fourth-grade.

They were no match for them at all.

Especially when the pretentious man leading the Ghost Ride was a first-grade expert.

There was no need to think further about this. They were doomed. "D*mn it, d*mn it! Ahh!"

Cao Guanshan, who was screaming inwardly, was indignant, desperate, regretful, and helpless. Gu Zhanlin was different. He did not show much negative emotions and only stared fixedly at the man in the suit with wide eyes.

"Are you doing this for revenge?"

"Revenge?" The man in the suit let out a breath and puffed out a ring of smoke. He said calmly, "You can say that it's revenge. After all, we lost many of our members previously…" "Those people were killed by the Bloodseeker Beasts. It has nothing to do with us!" Gu Zhanlin interrupted through gritted teeth.

"I know." The man in the suit flicked the ash off his cigarette and took a deep breath. "I know they died under the claws of the Bloodseeker Beasts. Look, I didn't ask anyone to kill you, did I?"

Gu Zhanlin was stunned.

That's right. Ghost Ride's sneak attack this time had destroyed the encirclement, and indeed, only a few people had been killed. Most of them were severely injured and had lost their mobility.

This was somewhat strange.

But very quickly, Gu Zhanlin came to his senses and said with an ugly expression, "You want to release the Bloodseeker Beasts?"

"Smart people are indeed enlightened with the slightest hint."

The man in the suit took a drag of his cigarette, exhaled, and smiled. "You guessed right. Our main purpose in coming here this time is to release the Bloodseeker Beasts and let them return to nature to enjoy…"

"Return your head!"

Gu Zhanlin cursed. "You d*mn lunatics and bastards who have no descendants, you'll never die a good death. You won't even be able to become a ghost after death!" "Lunatic, lunatic, lunatic!" Cao Guanshan's entire body was trembling, and his face was pale.

Xiao Yuanfang's frown deepened. His other good arm was hidden behind his back and quickly formed seals.

"Can't even become a ghost after death?"

The man in the suit chuckled. "This curse is quite unique. Is there anything similar? You can take the opportunity to curse more now. There won't be any chances for that later."

Buzz!

As soon as he finished speaking, the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array suddenly lit up. A huge lotus flower appeared and enveloped the valley. It was especially eye-catching in the night. Many Eight Trigrams imprints appeared on the translucent screen, moving up and down with the three figures. Every time they moved, the huge lotus flower that enveloped the valley would tremble slightly.

At the same time, the translucent screen rippled.

The ripples extended down from above and finally struck the ground, sinking into it.

An invisible aura spread out in all directions with the entire valley as the center.

Everywhere it passed, the mountains that were filled with the cries of insects and birds fell silent.

"No, no, no!"

Seeing this scene, Gu Zhanlin's hands began to tremble, and fear emerged in his eyes.

"You can't do this, you can't do this!"

He snarled and shouted in fear, "You can't do this!"

Breaking the array formation!

Ghost Ride had actually brought three array formation experts over to work together to crack the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array.

Array formation experts were rare to begin with, but now, three of them had appeared.

The Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array was indeed not easy to break, but since the people from Ghost Ride dared to appear here, it meant that they were confident about doing so.

It had been almost a month since the Bloodseeker Beasts were trapped.

If Ghost Ride was only here for revenge, they would have shown themselves long ago.

Yet, they took such a long time to appear.

It was obvious that they had made preparations to crack the array formation and gathered three array formation experts. They only arrived here tonight because they were now confident.

as

Once the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array was removed, the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley would definitely rush out.

Those of them who were not dead but were rendered immobile would become the first batch of food for them.

Food for the Bloodseeker Beasts to become stronger!

"Why…"

Gu Zhanlin, who was terrified, furious, and stifled, shouted helplessly, "Why?! Why are you doing this? What benefits will releasing the Bloodseeker Beasts and killing humans bring

you?"

"Benefits?"

The man in the suit blew out a mouthful of smoke and chuckled. "Do you think that we're releasing the Bloodseeker Beasts for some kind of benefit?"

"If not, why are you doing it?" Gu Zhanlin growled.

"It's fun."

The man in the suit flicked the ashes of his cigarette and raised his voice. "Don't you think that there are too many people in Yu Nation now? This has caused the resources to be very tight. If a group of people were to die at this time–not too many, just one to two hundred million would do–the remaining people would definitely live more comfortably…" "Comfortable your a*s!"

Cao Guanshan cursed loudly. His face was covered in sweat. At this moment, he threw caution to the wind and shouted at the top of his voice, "Who do you think you are? The Human Development Association? Let one or two hundred million people die. Heh, what right do you have to decide the fates of others? Even if you're looking for an excuse, please find one that sounds better!

"Do you think you won't be affected by the release of the Bloodseeker Beasts?

"The mention of this just makes me laugh. Your group of people who came earlier even tried to manipulate the Bloodseeker Beasts for your own use. In the end, they went out for wool and came home shorn. They got themselves implicated and were all devoured by the Bloodseeker Beasts. Not even a bone was left behind!

"Now you people are here again. You want to go crazy again and release the Bloodseeker Beasts.

"Just you wait. When a Beast King appears among the Bloodseeker Beasts, I'll see how many of you can escape! "We will die, and neither will you escape! Hahaha…"

Cao Guanshan burst into laughter.

The man in the suit ignored him and stood aside, puffing out smoke rings.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Cracks appeared on the translucent screen.

The giant lotus flower that shrouded the valley flickered.

Finally, with a loud bang, it exploded into countless pieces that scattered in midair. Cao Guanshan's laughter stopped abruptly. Gu Zhanlin's face was ashen, Xiao Yuanfang's eyes were filled with fear and shock, and the others were filled with despair.

Only then did the man in the suit throw away his cigarette butt and stomp on it a few times. He clapped his hands and said excitedly, "Alright, everyone, let's welcome our darlings on stage!"

Chapter 244 Burst! (1)

Hu~

The mountain breeze swept up from the valley and into the night sky.

The bumpy ground in the valley that was not covered by the array formation reappeared to the world.

A lot of drifting dust was brought outside the valley.

But.

The expected scene of the Bloodseeker Beasts rushing out madly did not happen.

Not only did the Bloodseeker Beasts not appear, the entire valley was also extremely quiet.

"What's going on?"

The man in the suit raised his eyebrows. "Are my darlings sleeping?".

With that, he swung his palm at the empty space in front of him.

Bang!

The sound of air exploding echoed through the valley at once.

Bloodseeker Beasts…

There was still no sign of them nor were there any sounds.

"Where are my babies?"

The man in the suit turned his head and looked at Gu Zhanlin. He questioned coldly, "Where did you hide them?"

Gu Zhanlin was also a little confused.

He had discovered the anomaly with the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley 10 days ago.

At that time, he had even complained to Cao Guanshan and Xiao Yuanfang and wanted to open the Nine Lotus Eight Array to investigate deeper.

However, when he subsequently heard the roars of the Bloodseeker Beasts, he became slightly at ease.

Unexpectedly, the Bloodseeker Beasts were now nowhere to be seen after the array formation was open.

Could it be…

"The Bloodseeker Beasts really disappeared?" Gu Zhanlin's heart skipped a beat.

Bang!

The man in the suit who did not hear an answer landed a kick on Gu Zhanlin's chest.

Pu!

Gu Zhanlin rolled on the ground three times. He spat out blood from his mouth, and his face became paler.

"I'm asking you a question. Have you become dumb?" asked the man in the suit calmly.

"Cough! Cough!" Gu Zhanlin coughed out blood. There were internal organs bits in his blood, and he was breathless. His eyes were bloodshot. As he panted, he said with difficulty, "I… I don't know! From the moment the array formation was set up until a moment ago, no one had opened it. Similarly, no one knows what's going on in the valley!"

"Hahaha…" Cao Guanshan laughed loudly." Good, good. Not a single Bloodseeker Beast is seen. Good! Like I said, your conspiracy will never succeed! The previous batch of people died with no remains. Your batch will also not have a good ending!" Xiao Yuanfang remained silent.

Deep down, he was also surprised. The Bloodseeker Beasts are really gone!

Not a single one of them appeared. Have they all returned to the underground palace?

The man in the suit ignored Cao Guanshan. The underground palace also came to his mind. He beckoned for the man and woman who had injured Gu Zhanlin, Xiao Yuanfang, and Cao Guanshan to come over.

"Go in and take a look at the underground palace."

The man and woman with cold auras responded with silence. With a flash, they flew into the valley and headed straight for the underground palace.

The fifth level of the underground palace.

In the collapsed space underground.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of deafening explosions took place. A snow-white blade beam accompanied by a dragon-like figure slithered through the ruins.

Energy spurted out wherever it passed. Like cutting tofu, it minced the Bloodseeker Beasts into pieces.

Roar!

Roar!

The remaining dozen or so Bloodseeker Beasts were running and jumping to dodge the attacks.

Terrified and furious roars seemed material, and they emanated sound waves that swept through every single area in the surroundings.

Almost half of them rushed towards Su Jingxing and his Blood Doppelganger.

But… they were useless!

As his soul power was strengthened, the roars of the Bloodseeker Beasts became increasingly ineffective.

Swish!

Su Jingxing darted around, chasing after the remaining dozen or so Bloodseeker Beasts and pouncing at them at lightning speed.

The true energy transformed from the true essence in his palm spiraled and twisted. A fist imprint erupted with a bang and struck the Bloodseeker Beasts.

The Wandering Dragon Saber in his left hand created an illusory shadow. The saber energy stacked in the air and sliced through the ruins.

Finally–

Bam! Bam! Bam!

With the last three deafening bangs, all the Bloodseeker Beasts died, turning into clouds of Bloodseeker Essence Energy that floated underground

Su Jingxing retracted his cultivation and put the Wandering Dragon Saber back into his palm space.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The claw imprint formed from true energy quickly spread out and grabbed the masses of Bloodseeker Essence Energy to envelop them. Blood Doppelganger quickly dissolved and absorbed the remaining Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

The Blood Doppelganger was now in human form and over two meters tall.

The blood-red outer layer of skin condensed into a black battle armor.

Blood-red hair spread out. Under Su Jingxing's control, it turned black, covering its face and reaching its chest.

It was fine if the dense blood energy was not released, but once it was, even a slight leak of it felt like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood rushing towards one.

The torrential aura surged like a tide.

Even Su Jingxing himself was uncomfortable.

Fortunately, this was a doppelganger, an energy doppelganger at that. If it were a body of flesh and blood, its organs, bones, tendons, and consciousness would have been corroded to an unknown extent.

And this was a pure blood body. If it was mixed with heretic power and nature, there was no wonder it would turn into a beast.

He exhaled and restrained his aura.

The Blood Doppelganger had finished absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

Without stopping, the last few masses of Bloodseeker Essence Energy were drawn into its body and absorbed.

Su Jingxing waited by the side and scanned the underground space filled with ruins.

After the fifth level collapsed, it had merged with the ground.

At this moment, other than ruins, Yue Dongliu didn't seem to have left behind anything out of the ordinary

Su Jingxing scanned the area twice but found nothing. He looked away.

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he suddenly sensed two cold auras heading underground.

"Why would someone come down here?

"Has the array formation been open?"

Puzzled, Su Jingxing quickly moved and released his true energy to wrap around the Blood Doppelganger and hide it in a corner.

Chapter 245 Burst! (2)

Deep down, he was prepared.

He could restrain his aura to the minimum and conceal himself. That would be enough to avoid the people. However, the Blood Doppelganger was currently in the state of absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy. It could not shrink, nor could the absorption be stopped. Once stopped, the Blood Doppelganger would become restless or even leak out.

Therefore, it was destined that he would be discovered.

What Su Jingxing had to do was to attack in advance.

As for how much strength to put in, it would depend on who the people coming in were!

Whether they were from the Prefecture Army or some other faction…

Swish! Swish!

The sound of rapid wind echoed. Su Jingxing released his perception and activated his secret ability to listen to the movements.

The two people who came had cold auras, like poisonous snakes.

Floating in midair, they separated slightly and began to slowly patrol the interior starting from the entrance.

Su Jingxing and his Blood Doppelganger were hiding in the innermost area, in a deep corner.

The Blood Doppelganger quickly dissolved the Bloodseeker Essence Energy in its body and absorbed its energy.

The two people slowly came close.

30 meters, 20 meters, 10 meters…

Closer, closer.

Above my head now!

The two people with cold auras arrived above Su Jingxing.

But they did not stay for long and left quickly.

It seems like they did not discover the Blood Doppelganger?

Su Jingxing remained silent.

He sensed the two of them patrolling the ground. They flew away without finding anything

Until they left the fifth level.

After a while, the Blood Doppelganger finished absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

Only then did Su Jingxing leave the underground with his Blood Doppelganger.

He found the passageway he came from and followed it up to the fourth level. Then, he returned to the third level from the fourth level.

From the third level to the second.

He continued upwards, entered the passageway, and was about to return to the first level.

A slender figure blocked the exit.

Swish!

Behind him, a tall and muscular figure appeared in a flash and blocked the way.

One at the front and the other at the back, they kept the Blood Doppelganger trapped in the middle of the passageway between the second level and the first level.

That's right, it wasn't Su Jingxing's main body, but his Blood Doppelganger!

From the moment the duo floated past his head, Su Jingxing knew that he had been discovered!

easo

ause

The reason why he wasn't exposed was because they had deliberately pretended not to know.

No matter what these two people wanted to do, the Blood Doppelganger was in a state of absorbing the Bloodseeker Essence Energy then and could not stop. Hence Su Jingxing cooperated with them and pretended not to know.

Then, on his way back to the ground surface, Su Jingxing separated from his Blood Doppelganger. One in front and one behind, he sensed everything from a level away.

He didn't know the strength of the people who had come, or the realm they were in. Under such circumstances, it would be best if the Blood Doppelganger took the lead.

Even if the Blood Doppelganger, it would be fine.

Therefore, the final outcome that appeared before his eyes was the Blood Doppelganger being blocked on both ends while Su Jingxing's true body silently appeared behind the tall and muscular figure!

Three people and one clone were watching each other.

"Where are the Bloodseeker Beasts?"

At the exit of the passageway, the slender figure spoke in a hoarse voice. Her cold gaze pierced towards the Blood Doppelganger.

Boom!

What answered her was a shrill sound of rushing wind.

The Blood Doppelganger suddenly moved forward, its massive body carrying a violent aura.

Before it got close, he mobilized 10% of its strength and threw a punch.

Not knowing who the other person was, Su Jingxing tried his best to hold back.

But–

Boom!

With a loud bang, the air exploded.

The moment the Blood Doppelganger swung its fist, a fist imprint formed in the air at the exit of the passageway.

A true essence armor appeared on the thin figure's body. Her Martial Art True Intent, a green double-headed snake coiled around her body, and its mouth opened to the extreme.

The cold and poisonous fangs exposed themselves in the air, attempting to devour the fist imprint.

However, at the moment of contact, the entire snake's head exploded, followed by the body. The true essence armor exploded. Finally, the chest of the thin figure caved in, and her entire body was bent into a shrimp-like shape as she flew backward. With a loud bang, she crashed into the wall and went deep into the pit that was a few meters deep. It was unknown if she was dead or alive.

At the same time, Su Jingxing released the Heaven Origin Saber to ambush the tall and muscular figure. There weren't many killer moves that targeted the soul, only one. Even so, the tall and muscular figure that was about to make a move let out a piercing growl. He conjured a Martial Art True Intent of a huge black scorpion and shakily rushed out of the corridor.

Boom!

Su Jingxing swung his palm and followed up with the Air Splitting Palm, striking the muscular figure.

The palm imprint condensed from true essence was several times stronger than that of true energy. Even though he had only circulated 50 years of his true essence cultivation, the might that erupted from him still extinguished the black scorpion on the surface of the muscular body. He was sent flying and smashed into the wall.

Only then did the battle end.

A man and a woman. Both of them had been tricked.

But no one died.

If they were dead, Su Jingxing would have immediately extracted Function Cards.

This result was not bad.

It was enough to injure the other party without knowing who they were.

After all, he had to try his best not to expose his Blood Doppelganger.

Not to mention Su Jingxing himself.

Of course, Su Jingxing was pleasantly surprised by the strength of the Blood Doppelganger.

One punch!

And it was a punch with only 10% strength.

It actually broke through protective true essence and Martial Art True Intent. In the end, the person's chest even caved. She was sent flying and sank into the wall.

The power of this punch was simply inconceivable.

If he had used 100% of its strength, wouldn't it be able to crush the person directly?

Su Jingxing took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement.

The Blood Doppelganger that had absorbed the energy of more than a thousand Bloodseeker Beasts was so powerful that it made one tremble.

Great!

He exhaled and calmed his mind.

Su Jingxing did not stay in the underground palace. After quickly taking care of the two people, just in case, Su Jingxing continued to let the Blood Clone lead the way to the exit.

He followed behind.

His massive perception spread out to listen for any movements.

Moments later, Su Jingxing, who had just left the surface, heard Gu Zhanlin's hoarse growl.

"Why? Are you scared? Ghost Ride feels fear too?"

"Hahaha, those two loud bangs must have been caused by your two subordinates! They miscalculated and were killed! Hahaha…"

Su Jingxing didn't know who the owner of the laughter was, but he had heard it several times while moving in and out of the valley for nearly a month. In any case, it was Gu Zhanlin's partner.

Su Jingxing was shocked by the information the conversation revealed.

Ghost Ride?

People from this organization have come

again?

The man and woman who just entered the underground palace, the two experts in the top ranks who intercepted the Blood Doppelganger, were actually from Ghost Ride!

If I had known earlier, I would have used all his strength.

With the members of Ghost Ride, it would be best if they could be killed on the spot! But what's the situation with Gu Zhanlin and the others?

From the conversation, it sounds like they have been captured…

Buzz!

The air vibrated.

Above the underground palace, a huge bronze bell appeared above the Blood Doppelganger's head. It released a terrifying suction force and absorbed the Blood Doppelganger into it.

"Not a bad physique."

A calm voice sounded. The man in the suit stepped into the air and walked towards the bronze bell.

Underground, Su Jingxing, who had returned to the underground palace with lightning speed, sensed the situation of the Blood Doppelganger and listened to the movements in the air.

After the Blood Doppelganger was pulled into the bronze bell, it was immediately restrained by a ball of power.

Su Jingxing's perception discovered that this bronze bell was not a real bell.

Instead…

It was Martial Art True Intent!

The Martial Art True Intent of the man who was walking over, dressed in a suit like he was attending a banquet. This fellow's aura had fused with the world around him. There was no leakage or abnormal fluctuations.

He walked in the air like he was walking on the road on a peaceful afternoon.

His breathing, aura, and vital energy were all fused.

Su Jingxing had only sensed such an existence from two people.

One was Zhao Fengxian, and the other was the leader of the previous batch of Ghost Ride members.

Both of them were first-grade martial artists.

In other words, this man in the suit was a first-grade expert!

Ghost Ride is f*cking crazy. Another group of experts led by a first-grade expert had come again.

Of course, even though Su Jingxing was emotional, he had no intention of surrendering. Just because the Blood Doppelganger was trapped by the bronze bell's Martial Art True Intent did not mean that he was done for.

Hu

Controlling the Blood Doppelganger with his mind, he circulated his blood energy.

It sped up, faster and faster.

Hu! Hu!

Hu! Hu! Hu!

Hu! Hu! Hu!

Boom!

Accompanied by an earth-shattering bang, the Blood Doppelganger's blood energy was released externally, bursting the bronze bell's Martial Art True Intent!

Chapter 246 Sent A First-Grade Flying

"Pu!"

Blood trickled down the corner of the man's mouth, and his face instantly turned pale.

His body swayed, and his aura became chaotic.

Even for a first-grade martial artist, the shattering of Martial Art True Intent would not feel good.

Whoosh!

Following the principle of taking your life while you're sick,

the moment Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger to pounce towards the man in the suit once it burst the bronze bell.

Faced with a first-grade expert, the Blood Doppelganger unleashed its full strength, holding nothing back! Boom!

The sound of it breaking through the air was like a clap of thunder.

Blood energy lingered in the air.

The Blood Doppelganger had already rushed in front of the man in the suit. It unleashed 100% of its strength and threw a punch.

Bam!

The air exploded. The void caved in, producing a temporary vacuum.

The man's protective true essence blocked the fist imprint like an armor. However, it only lasted for less than half a second before it shattered completely. The fist imprint struck his chest.

The terrifying force sent the man flying. His shocked and wary gaze was filled with killing intent.

Like a kite with a broken string wrapped up in strong winds, he flew into the distance and disappeared into the horizon.

The speed was too fast, and the sound of his body rubbing against the air echoed in the air.

At this moment, both inside and outside the valley, the sky and ground fell into dead silence.

Flew out?

The man in the suit who was a first-grade expert was sent flying with a punch!?

Dead silence.

In the huge valley, be it the troops of the Prefecture Army, the Flying Lion army, or the members of Ghost Ride, everyone's eyes were wide open and they stood rooted to the ground.

Gu Zhanlin's mouth gaped open. Xiao Yuanfang's eyes were staring ahead. Cao Guanshan was dumbfounded.

Even Su Jingxing himself was stunned.

100% of his strength erupted. With pure strength, he broke through the protective true essence armor of a first-grade expert and sent him flying.

Regardless of whether the man in the suit was dead or not, the power of this punch was enough to move and shock people!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

In the silence, numerous figures suddenly leaped up from all around the valley. They flashed through the forest at lightning speed and fled towards the back.

All of them were running on the ground, but not a single one soared into the sky.

His speed was extremely fast. In a few breaths, he disappeared into the forest.

Of course, Su Jingxing's perception could still lock onto them. However, it didn't take long before they disappeared.

Ghost Ride's members!

The man in the first-grade suit was sent flying with a punch. How could the remaining people dare to stay?

As soon as they snapped out of his shock, they decisively chose to escape.

Realizing this, Su Jingxing didn't stop them either.

Circulating his soul power, he controlled the Blood Doppelganger to fly straight up with his will. He picked a direction and it disappeared into the horizon with the wind.

Similarly, he concealed the aura of his main body to the maximum and moved silently through the tunnels. He found a remote corner and burrowed into the woods before leaving quickly.

The sudden arrival of Ghost Ride interrupted Su Jingxing's calculations.

Originally, Su Jingxing had planned to leave without anyone noticing after killing the Bloodseeker Beasts. He wanted to ensure that no one would notice that he had absorbed more than a thousand Bloodseeker Beasts.

Now, with the commotion caused by Ghost Ride, the Blood Doppelganger had been exposed!

Under such circumstances, it was really difficult for Su Jingxing to interact with Gu Zhanlin, Xiao Yuanfang, and the others.

In the eyes of Gu Zhanlin and the rest, it was also impossible to predict whether the Blood Doppelganger was orthodox or heretic. They did not dare to get into contact with it rashly.

Who knew if the Blood Doppelganger would kill them all to keep its secret?

Therefore, no one gave chase, nor did they dare to.

They didn't even dare to shout. The group remained silent, either sitting or lying down. Five minutes later, the sound of rushing wind came from the horizon.

Figures tore through the air at high speed and landed beside everyone.

Cao Guanshan was the first to heave a sigh of relief. He shouted excitedly, "Who is it? Who is that person? How can he be so strong? How can he be so powerful?! I saw it just now. He didn't use true energy or true essence. He relied on pure physical strength! Pure physical strength!"

"Yeah, pure physical strength. That's incredible," Gu Zhanlin agreed, shock lingering on his face. "This punch was too powerful. How did he do it? Can his body take it? Could it be a transcendent body?"

"It's not a transcendent body."

Xiao Yuanfang shook his head. "Once the transcendent body is activated, unique fluctuations will leak out from the physical body. When that punch was thrown earlier, the other party was very stable, unbelievably stable!"

"Wait, what are you talking about?"

Kang Shaoyu raised his hand and interrupted the trio's discussion. "What punch? Transcendent body? Weren't there enemies invading? Where are they? We received Brother Xiao's message and rushed over immediately. Why? Are we late?"

"The array formation is gone."

Wan Sansi said in a deep voice. He looked at the silent valley and frowned. "There was a battle here just now. Who was it?"

"They're all gone."

Cao Guanshan was still excited. He waved his hands and gestured. "You didn't see it. Earlier, Ghost Ride ambushed us and removed the Nine Lotus Eight Trigrams Array. They wanted to release the Bloodseeker Beasts. In the end, all the Bloodseeker Beasts had been refined. That person was too impressive…"

"Impossible!"

Kang Shaoyu interrupted and shouted, "The Bloodseeker Beasts have been refined? How is that possible? The secret art that can refine the Bloodseeker Essence Energy has long been

lost."

"Heh, impossible?"

Cao Guanshan sneered. "Not only did he refine all the Bloodseeker Beasts, he even sent a first-grade martial artist flying with a single punch. The leader of this Ghost Ride team was a first-grade martial artist. In the end. The person first broke through his Martial Art True Intent and then sent him flying for countless miles with a single punch. It's still unknown whether he's dead or alive!"

"Are… are you joking?" Kang Shaoyu gaped in disbelief.

Wan Sansi, Zhou Leng, and the others were also shocked. They looked at Cao Guanshan in disbelief, then looked at Xiao Yuanfang, waiting for him to confirm.

"It's true."

Xiao Yuanfang nodded and took a deep breath. "You guys already knew that something was wrong with the Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley. They seemed to have disappeared half a month ago. It's been confirmed tonight! The Bloodseeker Beasts were indeed disappearing! "But Bloodseeker Beasts didn't escape nor were they scheming anything. Instead, they were killed and refined!

"I don't know when this person sneaked into the array formation. He killed the Bloodseeker Beasts and refined the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

"If not for him, Ghost Ride's operation would have succeeded. When they release the Bloodseeker Beasts and bring disaster to Changyang Prefecture, we would all be dead."

Xiao Yuanfang was full of emotion after he finished.

Wan Sansi, Zhou Leng, Kang Shaoyu, and the others fell silent.

Really?

A thousand Bloodseeker Beasts had been killed and refined by someone?

The other party even sent a first-grade expert from Ghost Ride flying with a punch?

It was easy to verify this matter. They simply had to check if there were any Bloodseeker Beasts in the valley. If it weren't for this fact, even if you beat him to death, Kang Shaoyu would never believe that someone could really refine the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

It had to be known that the secret art to refine the Bloodseeker Essence Energy was extremely rare and had been lost a thousand years ago.

Compared to this secret art, sending a first-grade martial artist flying with one punch now seemed normal.

After all, the other party might also be in the first-grade.

It was nothing impressive for a first-grade martial artist to send a first-grade martial artist flying…

Hold on!

"Did you just say that the mysterious person who sent the first-grade martial artist flying had used pure physical strength?"

Chapter 247 Just the thought of It Is Scary

Kang Shaoyu asked in shock, his mouth agape.

"Yes!"

Cao Guanshan's face flushed red. "Otherwise, why do you think we're so agitated? If it weren't for the other party's outstanding performance, would we be so excited?"

"That's you."

Gu Zhanlin attacked mercilessly. "Although we were shocked, we weren't excited."

"It's the same, it's the same," said Cao Guanshan dismissively. He waved his hand and said, "The mysterious person broke a first-grade martial artist's protective true essence with pure physical strength. Can you do such a thing?"

"I can't," said Gu Zhanlin, not bothering to hide anything. "It's precisely because I can't that the mysterious person's strength is so incredible. But, I think the reason why the mysterious person is so powerful is probably because he refined more than a thousand Bloodseeker Beasts!"

"Definitely."

Xiao Yuanfang nodded and chimed in, "If not for the fact that the Bloodseeker Essence Energy is too domineering and terrifying, every one of them would be a Mutated Beast. Everyone knows the effects of the flesh and blood of Mutated Beasts."

"Tsk!"

Kang Shaoyu came back to his senses and sighed. "In that case, we have to thank this mysterious expert for directly getting rid of this danger of the Bloodseeker Beasts!"

"That's right. Now that the Bloodseeker Beasts have been refined, there's no need to deploy manpower to guard this place anymore. There's also no need for the cabinet to argue over the seal."

Gu Zhanlin let out a long sigh. "We just don't know who the other party is. Everything moved too fast just now, and the mysterious expert was disheveled. I couldn't see his face at all."

"Why? You really want to thank him?" Cao Guanshan chuckled.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zhanlin glanced at him and said calmly, "You make it sound like you don't want to."

"Hahaha…" Cao Guanshan laughed loudly.

No one was a fool.

The mysterious expert was able burst the Martial Art True Intent and the protective true essence of a first-grade martial artist using blood energy and brute force respectively. Who would be willing to become enemies with such a person? If they could become friends with him, they would have made a killing.

Unfortunately, no one knew who he was.

"Who's there?!"

All of sudden, Wan Sansi let out a low shout and turned his head to look in the direction of the underground palace's exit.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

With the sound of rushing wind, two figures, one tall and one short, darted out of the hole and flew towards the periphery of the valley.

"They're Ghost Ride's members!"

Xiao Yuanfang had sharp eyes and shouted, "It was those two people who jointly attacked and injured us. I didn't expect them to still be in the underground palace. Wait, that woman seems to be injured? Was the doing of the mysterious person?" "No matter who they are, since they are from Ghost Ride, they deserve to die!" Swoosh! Swoosh! With that, Wan Sansi and Zhou Leng decisively gave chase.

Qinghe City.

In the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

After making a long detour, Su Jingxing, who had returned home, took out the dozens of cards he had extracted from killing the Bloodseeker Beasts. He unlocked them and obtained masses of Blood Elemental Essence Energy for his Blood Doppelganger to absorb.

After absorbing all of it, the aura of the Blood Doppelganger rose to another level.

Fortunately, the blood energy was restrained automatically and wouldn't leak out unless circulated.

The strength of the Blood Doppelganger had exceeded Su Jingxing's expectations.

When its full power was unleashed, even a first-grade martial artist was nothing.

The man who was dressed like he was attending a banquet was sent flying with a single punch. The probability of him dying was not high, but the probability of him being crippled from then on was more than 90%.

Unless he was a transcendent body!

Or he possessed a special bloodline, or he happened to have rare heavenly treasures with healing abilities beside him that could treat his injuries in time.

Otherwise, this fellow would definitely be crippled.

In any case, Su Jingxing didn't have to worry about revenge. The Blood Doppelganger was exposed, not him.

Cough cough…

The Blood Doppelganger's current energy was too dense. After some thought, Su Jingxing decided to temper and compress it.

Coincidentally, the ability to extract Function Cards was to bound to the soul.

The Blood Doppelganger was also controlled by and connected to the soul. It could also extract cards.

Therefore, Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger to head to the crematorium in the Eastern District.

The Eastern District's crematorium was much smaller than that in the Western District.

But no matter how small it was, there were corpses incinerated there every day.

He controlled the Blood Doppelganger to hide in the back mountain of the crematorium to temper the excessive energy in its body while extracting cards. Both acts proceeded simultaneously.

Meanwhile, Su Jingxing's main body returned to the crematorium to do daily patrols and extract cards.

From time to time, he would down a few Strength Pills to slowly nourish his transcendent body.

This transcendent body could transform continuously, becoming stronger with each transformation.

No one complain about being too strong.

Su Jingxing was no exception, especially when the method to become stronger was so simple.

Just eat Strength Pills every day.

Although he did not know how many Strength Pills he would have to take to undergo a second transformation,

being hopeful was always good. Su Jingxing had no lack of Strength Pills.

For nearly a month, he was either recovering his soul power or ambushing Bloodseeker Beasts. Now that he was back in the crematorium again, Su Jingxing did not feel uncomfortable at all. Instead, he felt indescribably relaxed.

Compared to fighting and killing, Su Jingxing also enjoyed living such a carefree patrol life.

With Gu Bo, Kong Dabao, and the others who were close to him, they would greet and joke around with each other as usual when they met.

Now, Su Jingxing could chat with Director Wu, Wu Shouhan too.

Seeing that Su Jingxing rarely appeared at the crematorium, Old Wu enthusiastically pulled Su Jingxing to his office to have tea and chat.

"Little Su, if you have any difficulties, remember to tell me."

Wu Shouhan said with a sincere expression, "Although I'm not strong enough, I still have connections. The Martial Suppression Office, the garrison, the City Guard, and the Public Security Team. I know someone in all of these organizations who can put in a word or two!" "Thank you, Uncle Wu, but I don't need any help," said Su Jingxing gratefully. "If I really encounter any difficulties, I'll definitely come to you."

That is, if you can help!

Su Jingxing added inwardly.

With his current strength, if he really encountered something he couldn't resolve, it would be useless to look for Wu Shouhan too.

Of course, there were exceptions to everything.

For this, Su Jingxing did not refuse and left some leeway. "Glad to hear that,"

Wu Shouhan said with a smile. "I can't help you much in terms of cultivation. In terms of resources, I don't have much money either, but I definitely won't disappoint you in terms of social relations.

"I can also share some hearsays with you.

"For example, a group of experts has appeared in the city recently. They are all in the fourth-grade!"

"All in the fourth-grade?" Su Jingxing cooperated and looked surprised.

"Yes, they are all fourth-grade martial artists!"

Wu Shouhan sighed. "I heard that this group of people came from the Green Cloud Mountain Range. There are more than 50 of them, and every one of them is in the fourth-grade." "Tss- More than 50 fourth-grade martial artists. Just the thought of it is scary. When did such a large faction exist in the Green Cloud Mountain Range?".

"As far as I know, there was only one Green Cloud Court in the past. They have a base in Green Cloud Mountain. Of course, the hidden bases of the other factions don't count.

"Now that this faction with more than 50 fourth-grade martial artists has appeared, the major factions and martial arts families in the city are becoming more and more restless. "That's because they want to build a friendship with this faction, but are also afraid of being annexed and exterminated by them.

"Little Su, you don't know, they…"

Whoosh!

A commotion suddenly came from outside the window.

Chapter 248 Who Do You Think You

Are?

"What happened?"

Wu Shouhan, who was interrupted, frowned. He stood up and went to the window.

"There seems to be a problem with the corpses being transported." Su Jingxing leaned against the window and looked down at the group of people gathered under a building dozens of meters to the right of the office building. His ears twitched as he listened to their conversation.

He roughly made out the reason for the commotion.

"Let's go take a look."

Wu Shouhan, who was a distance away and couldn't hear clearly, immediately turned around and left the office.

Su Jingxing followed behind.

The two of them walked quickly to the location of the commotion and separated the crowd.

"Make way, make way. I'm the Director. Speak to me!"

Wu Shouhan stopped the people who were cursing. He looked at the two corpse-moving team members and frowned. "What's going

on?"

"Director, this has nothing to do with us."

A slightly plump Corpse Collection Team member covered his face and said aggrievedly, "We didn't do anything. We just transported the corpses from the morgue to the farewell ceremony hall as usual. Unexpectedly, halfway there, the corpse suddenly began burning by itself…"

"Bullsh*t!"

With a curse, a burly man who was nearly 1.9 meters tall pointed at the plump team member and roared, "F*ck you, would a corpse suddenly self-combusted by itself? Why didn't you say that the corpse suddenly jumped up? When my mother was sent here, all was fine and there was no problem. But when she was brought out after being left in the morgue for an hour or so, her corpse inexplicably combusted. There must be something wrong here. It was you, you did something!"

"It wasn't me." The plump Corpse Collection Team member looked terrified as he shouted in shame and anger, "I didn't, I didn't do it!"

"Director, we really didn't know about this," another team member with a slightly big head joined in. "Fatty and I didn't do anything. We just transported the corpse as usual. In the end, the corpse suddenly self-combusted…"

"Self-combusted your a*s!"

The burly man shouted, his eyes widening in anger. He roared, "I said that there's nothing wrong with my mother. The problem is you guys! You did something to my mother and started burning her halfway! You b*stards, I'll kill you!"

With that, he swung his hand towards the face of the team member with a big head.

Thud!

Su Jingxing reached out, grabbed his arm, lifted it slightly, and pushed.

Da da da!

The burly man staggered backward uncontrollably and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing? What are you doing? The crematorium burned a corpse and is going to beat me up?"

"Quick, get someone here. The crematorium is abusing its power to bully people!" "Hey, Brother-in-law, bad news. We're getting beaten up at the crematorium!"

III

The few people standing with the burly man screamed and shouted.

On the crematorium's side, the members of Corpse Collection Team and security guards looked helpless and speechless.

The other relatives who were watching the show gloated.

"Tsk, trying to extort the crematorium. Pretty impressive."

"That's not all. Didn't you hear what they said? They're calling people here to settle scores with the crematorium!"

"These people probably have powerful backgrounds. Otherwise, would they dare to challenge the crematorium?"

"That goes without saying."

…

The crowd was abuzz with discussions and shouts.

Wu Shouhan's face darkened as he listened.

"Sure, feel free to call for reinforcements. The more, the better. It's best if you can get the Public Security Team, the Martial Suppression Office, and the City Guard here! We'll see who's the one causing trouble!" After shouting at the burly man and company, he turned to look at the two team members and comforted them. "Don't worry. As long as you were transporting the corpses according to the procedures, no one can do anything to you!"

"Thank you, Director."

"Thank you, Director. We really don't know what's going on."

The two team members were both grateful and aggrieved.

"Hehehe, it's not you? Who else could it be then?!"

The burly man got up from the ground and glanced at the two team members with a solemn expression. Then, he glared at Su Jingxing fiercely and yelled, "And you, how dare you stop me! Just you wait!" "There's no need to wait. You can strike back now," said Su Jingxing calmly, arching his eyebrows.

"Heh heh, who do you think you are? Do I have to strike just because you say so?" The burly man's face was full of disdain, but his heart was pounding.

Although he had just become a martial artist, his strength and speed were not weak.

The earlier slap was a surprise attack, even a ninth-grade martial artist might not be able to block that.

However, Su Jingxing did it. And he did it very easily. The counter push left him unable to resist. That was why he fell to the ground.

Such skills clearly told everyone present that Su Jingxing was a martial artist. And he was an eighth-grade martial artist! Facing with a eighth-grade martial artist who was this young, while the burly man clamoring, he was actually filled with fear deep down.

What he did not notice was that his final reply had exposed his fear of the strong.

Only, no one reminded him. "Fool."

neve

The others didn't say anything, but Wu Shouhan wasn't afraid. He cursed, "It's never-ending, is it? Fine, get your backers to come over quickly. I'll discuss with them whether it's wrong to burn corpses in the crematorium or not?!"

"Yeah, I'm curious too. Is there anything wrong with burning corpses in the crematorium?" Su Jingxing echoed.

"This… That doesn't sound wrong."

"Yeah, didn't they send the corpse to the crematorium to incinerate it?"

"Um, then what are they arguing about?"

Realization dawned on the others. They looked at each other in dismay and looked at the burly man and the others with strange expressions.

"This…"

The few people standing with the burly man could not help but feel nervous as they listened to the discussions.

That's right. Isn't it normal for a crematorium to incinerate corpses?

It's unreasonable for them to be making a scene over this!

"Wait!"

The burly man suddenly raised his hand and shouted in shame and anger, "Wu Shouhan, don't twist my words! There is indeed no problem with burning corpses in the crematorium, but my mother was incinerated not in the incinerator. Instead, her corpse suddenly caught on fire in the middle of being the transported! These are two different matters, don't mix them up!"

"Heh!"

Wu Shouhan laughed out loud. "You're not stupid, but how do you know that your mother's corpse was set on fire by our staff? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"No, but…"

"But what 'but'? Since you didn't see it with your own eyes, what right do you have to be so arrogant? What right do you have to hit another person!?" Wu Shouhan shouted angrily. "You think you have the right to hit someone without evidence? Calling for help and making threats? Come on, continue!" "I… I…" The burly man's face was flushed red. His face was filled with shame and anger. He wanted to vent his frustration, but he was afraid of Su Jingxing. His anger was held in his chest, as it rose and fell restlessly.

Hu~

Whoosh!

His breathing became rougher and heavier. At this moment, Su Jingxing suddenly caught a burning aura jumping out of the burly man's body.

"Everyone, move back!"

Su Jingxing's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively shouted and quickly pushed the crowd around him to empty the space for the burly man.

Almost two seconds after the crowd retreated, large flames suddenly appeared on the body of the enraged burly man!

Chapter 249 Burning With Rage? (1)

"Ah!"

A miserable scream resounded through the air above the crematorium.

The burly man, who was covered in flames, slapped the flames on his body with both hands and retreated continuously.

As soon as he did, the others who had yet to come back to their senses immediately screamed and scrambled away in fear.

Without needing Su Jingxing to urge them, all of them wished they had three legs to quickly distance themselves from the burly man.

"Ah!!"

The burly man screamed as he tried to put out the fire, yet he couldn't no matter how he tried.

Not only did the flames that suddenly appeared fail to be extinguished, they became more and more intense.

In less than ten seconds, the burly man stopped screaming and fell to the ground, motionless.

The blazing flames continued to burn until the burly man's entire body, including his clothes turned into a pile of ashes before slowly disappearing The crowd was also silent.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Self-combustion!

The burly man actually self-combusted without any warning. In less than ten seconds, he was reduced to ashes. Fear!

At this moment, invisible fear occupied the hearts of everyone present except Su Jingxing.

Shock and fear also surfaced on Wu Shouhan's face as he opened his eyes wide.

"What… what's going on? Why… why did he self-combust all of a sudden?" Old Wu murmured dreamily, his voice unknowingly turning hoarse.

But no one responded.

The others didn't know that the chill in Su Jingxing's heart had also yet to dissipate.

The moment before the burly man self-combusted, Su Jingxing had caught a scorching aura.

This aura was extremely sudden, strange, and mysterious, making one feel inexplicably fearful.

When the burly man was covered in blazing flames, Su Jingxing even sensed a terrifying sense of danger envelop himself.

In this danger, Su Jingxing's body tensed up and his back felt cold. He almost manifested his Martial Art True Intent.

Something is wrong!

The effects of the scorching aura that burst out from the burly man's body is not as simple as self-combustion.

What exactly is it?

Why can it make a person burn himself?

And what does it rely on to burn a body into ashes?

Su Jingxing quickly calmed down and regained his composure. His mind was racing.

Suddenly, he turned to look at the two team members.

"The corpse you transported earlier also suddenly self-combusted and turned into ashes like this?"

asked Su Jingxing softly. "Yes… yes!"

The plump team member trembled as he answered, "There… there were no signs. Ju… Just like that person just now, it suddenly started burning!" "Right… right." He thought of something and added, "After the corpse self-combusted, we immediately contacted the Martial Suppression Office. They should be here soon."

Su Jingxing kept quiet.

Let's put the Martial Suppression Office aside for now.

The corpse burned itself, so did the living person.

What is the connection between the two?

Su Jingxing pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you guys read the information on the cause of death of that corpse?"

"I… I have." The big-headed team member rushed to answer. "The cause of death was a sudden heart attack. She passed away because she wasn't treated in time."

"It's not because of a heart attack," muttered a small voice.

No one else heard it, but Su Jingxing did!

Immediately, with a tap of his toes, he flew towards the person who spoke and held him down.

"What are you doing?!"

The young man who was grabbed was one of the companions of the burly man who had self-destructed.

His eyes darted around, and he stepped back, panic on his face. "Let me go, let me go!" "Tell me the real cause of death of this person's mother, and I'll release you," said Su Jingxing in a deep voice, pointing at the burly man who had turned into ashes.

"Why… why should I tell you?!"

The young man struggled and shouted, "You're not from the Public Security Team, let alone the Martial Suppression Office. What can you do to me if I don't say anything?"

"What about me?"

A deep voice sounded.

From the Martial Suppression Office's Western District Branch, the Commissioner of Command Qi Zhaochen led a group of people into the crematorium and walked towards Su Jingxing

"Brother-in-law, you came at the right time. This fellow is too arrogant. He's just a mere security guard at the crematorium and he wants to capture and interrogate another person. Hurry up and arrest him. Arrest him and bring him back to teach him a good lesson!"

The young man waved at Qi Zhaochen, his face full of joy. Brother-in-law?

This fellow's brother-in-law is Qi Zhaochen?

Su Jingxing was shocked.

He seemed to remember that Qi Zhaochen was not married. How could… "Shut up!"

Beside Qi Zhaochen, a square-faced man happened to wear a dark expression on his face. He cursed awkwardly, "What nonsense are you spouting, you b*stard? Who do you think I am? You think I can arrest people just because I want to?"

"I…"

"I told you to shut up. Why are you going on!" The square-faced man did not give the young man a chance to refute and scolded him again.

At the same time, he glared fiercely at the young man, signaling hard with his eyes.

At this moment, the young man finally reacted. He quickly glanced at Qi Zhaochen, whose expression was extremely cold. He shrank his neck and lowered his head, not daring to utter another word.

"It's fine. Let him speak."

Qi Zhaochen began calmly, "Sorry to trouble you, Captain Little Su."

He nodded at Su Jingxing, who released the young man.

"Old Wu, I already know what happened."

Qi Zhaochen then looked at Wu Shouhan and said, "We will get to the bottom of this matter and find out what happened."

"Now, it's not just one matter, but two." Wu Shouhan, who had been thrown into a daze by the young man, finally came back to his senses. After hearing Qi Zhaochen's words, he sighed softly. Qi Zhaochen frowned. "What do you mean?"

"Another one self-combusted five minutes ago."

Su Jingxing pointed at the ashes of the burly man and said in a deep voice, "There. He was still arguing with us just now, but he suddenly self-combusted. This person's mother is the deceased from before, the one whose corpse also self-combusted."

Chapter 250 Burning With Rage? (2)

"In other words, both mother and son have self-combusted!"

Qi Zhaochen was speechless

The square-faced man and company were also speechless. So sinister?

Both mother and son self-combusted for no reason?

"The cause of death listed for the corpse was a heart attack. But this friend just said that it wasn't a heart attack." Su Jingxing pointed at the young man. "I asked him what it was, but he refused to tell me."

"Speak!"

Without waiting for Qi Zhaochen to speak, the square-faced man immediately shouted, "B*stard, what are you hiding at a time like this? Hurry up and tell us the real cause of death!"

"Sh-She died of rage." The young man shrunk his neck and said awkwardly.

"Rage?" The square-faced man's expression darkened. "Say that again?"

"Really, she died of rage!"

When the young man saw that, he hurriedly said, "I'm not lying to you, Brother-in-law. Really, she really died of rage! Brother Tiger lost money while gambling wanted to sell the house. In the end, he angered his mother to death! Of course, his mother had a heart disease to begin with, but the real source was Brother Hu wanting to sell the house after gambling and losing money. The heart attack was just a disease." The square-faced man fell silent and turned to look at Qi Zhaochen.

The latter looked at Su Jingxing. "How did this Brother Tiger self-combust? Or his condition before he self-combusted?"

"He was furious and aggrieved."

Su Jingxing quickly recounted the situation.

After hearing this, Qi Zhaochen pondered for a moment and said, "So, the mother and son's self-combustion was caused by extreme rage?"

Uh…

There was silence.

Everyone, including Su Jingxing, was puzzled.

Self-combusted due to extreme rage?

Is this "rage" that powerful… No, terrifying?

One died from extreme anger, and her corpse self-combusted.

The other turned into ashes on the spot.

Since when did extreme rage have such a powerful effect?

Of course, this was only Qi Zhaochen's guess. As for the truth, they had to investigate further.

Brother Tiger's self-combustion was witnessed by everyone present. There was nothing to say.

But only the two team members, Fatty and Big Head witnessed his mother's self-combustion.

Therefore, the two of them followed Qi Zhaochen to the Martial Suppression Office. A copy of the surveillance footage was also taken.

As the director of the crematorium and the source of Brother Tiger's anger, Wu Shouhan naturally followed along. Before leaving, he instructed Su Jingxing to keep an eye on the crematorium and not cause panic.

However, too many people saw Brother Tiger's self-combustion. There was no way to hide this. Soon, everyone in the crematorium knew what had happened.

Someone suddenly self-combusted, so panic was triggered in the end. However, it wasn't very intense, and it wasn't to the extent where everyone was panicking.

In addition, the few managers in the crematorium quickly took action. Before the panic could erupt, they suppressed it. They even found an excuse that Brother Tiger's self-combustion was because someone had tampered with his body before he came to the crematorium.

With this two-pronged approach, the crematorium regained its peace.

The others became curious and puzzled, but Su Jingxing didn't. His heart was still pounding.

The scorching aura before Brother Tiger's self-combustion and the terrifying danger when he was burning made Su Jingxing inexplicably frustrated.

His intuition told him that things weren't that simple.

The extreme rage was just what was on the surface.

The true source was definitely not rage.

What exactly is it? Su Jingxing fell into deep thought as he was patrolling After returning to his office, he took out the cards he had extracted and checked if there were any gains.

Essence Energy Card, Strength Enhancement Card, Internal Force Card, Internal Force Card, Essence Energy Card…

He read all the cards one by one. He did not extract any special Function Cards.

But that was not the main point. The key was that two cards were missing!

Brother Tiger and his mother.

Su Jingxing had always counted the number of cards.

However, no cards were extracted from Brother Tiger and his mother's corpses.

Brother Tiger could still be explained. He had burned too quickly and turned into ashes in less than ten seconds. There was not even a corpse left. It was understandable that no card was extracted.

But it was strange that no card was extracted from his mother's corpse either.

Of course, it was possible that the corpse happened to self-combust and turn into ashes just as his cheat ability was about to do an automatic extraction.

He was just a step too late!

In that case, it could explain why there were two cards missing.

Without cards extracted, it was naturally impossible to use them to search for clues.

After a day of pondering, Su Jingxing couldn't figure it out.

When he got home, he casually made some food and went online to search for clues.

This was a subconscious action. There might be relevant information online.

And Su Jingxing really did find something.

However, it wasn't locally from Qinghe City or even the Changyang Prefecture. Instead, it was from the neighboring Silver Prefecture. There was also a case of self-combustion in the prefecture city. "I'm not lying! Really, if I did lie, my entire family will die! "I was playing games in my room when I heard the people arguing outside. Out of curiosity, I walked to the window to see who they were.

"It was nothing much at first. There was only a couple arguing and fighting, and people were trying to mediate the fight. From the conversation, the man had a mistress and wanted to get a divorce. The woman refused and kept cursing, calling the man a beast, ungrateful, and worse than a dog.

"It turns out that before the man married the woman, his family was very poor. His father died early and his mother was paralyzed. Other than doing some manual labor work, he couldn't do anything else.

"The woman who thought that the man was honest and reliable. He was also handsome, so she went behind her family and secretly married the man. After that, she gave the man money to start a business.

"In the end, the man had a change of heart after he made it big and wanted a divorce. "Of course the woman wouldn't agree. While they were arguing, she revealed all the dirty things that man had done, including the fact his thingy was very small!

"This completely enraged the man. He flew into a rage and kicked and hit women crazily, ignoring the persuasion of others. "But! Here's the point, here's the point!

"But, as the man hit her, flames suddenly appeared on his body! You guys didn't see it, but I was dumbfounded!

"I wasn't the only one. The people mediating the fight, and the woman who was closest to the man were all stunned.

"The man suddenly self-combusted, and the flames were huge. The fire was extremely fierce. In about ten seconds, the man was reduced to ashes!"

"Image/Image/ Image/Image" "Above are images I took using an ultrazoom camera after the man was burned to ashes. The black circle in the center are his ashes.

"This matter is extremely strange. After the Martial Suppression Office and the Public Security Team came, they investigated the situation but found nothing.

"What is even more amazing is that the woman who was lying at the man's feet wasn't injured at all. While the flames burned the man, the woman wasn't affected at all!

"I know this is an exaggeration, but I have the images as evidence, everyone can take a closer look before criticizing me.

"Of course, it's best if you trust me. I'll continue to report on the follow-up events, mainly about the woman's movements.

"Now that the woman has been taken away by the Martial Suppression Office. But my intuition tells me that there's definitely something wrong with her!"

That was the end of the post.

The forum where the post was posted was a community of the Silver Prefecture.

Su Jingxing also read the replies one by one. "Cool, the ashes that OP made are pretty good."

"Self-combustion in broad daylight. OP, this idea is not bad. You can try to write a novel." "I've only heard of burning with desire, but never of burning with rage."

"According to the OP's description, if it's true, doesn't that mean that the reason for the man's self-combustion was extreme anger?"

"Haha, the person above is also a genius. You actually believed the story told by OP. Extreme rage? When did his extreme rage become so powerful? It could actually burn him into ashes?"

"Replying to the comment above, the extreme rage might be very powerful. Who knows if that man has cultivated a similar secret ability? Perhaps because of a mistake, the backlash caused him to self-combust?"

"That's right, that's right. I can recall some secret abilities that have similar effects. They can ignite a person silently and burn them into ashes!"

"xxReally? Are there such secret abilities?"

"Heh, the above, there are many things you don't know about."

"Then tell me. If you don't, how would I know?"

If it weren't for the terrifying sense of danger that Su Jingxing sensed when Brother Tiger was burning, Su Jingxing would have also ruled this incident as one due to human error.

But that sense of danger was not an illusion. That complicated the problem!

Report chapter

Chapter 251 Ghost Ride's Doing?

Strange self-combustion occurred in both cities. The possibility that the case was due to human manipulation had been minimized.

Qinghe City was nearly 300 kilometers away from the Silver Prefecture City.

It was such a long journey, and it wasn't as if they had self-combusted at the same time. Brother Tiger, his mother, and the man who cheated-—there was almost no obvious connection between the three of them.

Yet, they had self-combusted, especially Brother Tiger's mother who had only combusted after death. There must be a reason for this.

Once he figured out the connection, it wouldn't be a problem to find out the terrifying danger behind it.

It wasn't that Su Jingxing was idle and dead set on getting to the bottom of this.

The reason why Su Jingxing wanted to figure this out

was firstly, this incident had affected him as well. His intuition told him that the terrifying danger would come to him sooner or later. If he didn't made clear what it was before that, he wouldn't be able to escape the fate of self-combustion and turning into ashes.

Secondly, there was a subconscious voice urging him to find out the reason.

He had encountered this strange sense of urgency before.

The soul oath!

He had also sensed the promise he had made to Liu Chenglong to protect the nation for 10 years this time.

What did this mean?

The implications of the self-combustion case was extremely wide!

If it was not figured out in time for the source to be cut off, thousands or even tens of thousands of people would die!

The three people who had self-combusted were only the beginning.

It remained unknown how many people would die in the future.

Therefore, whether it was for the nation or his personal benefits, Su Jingxing had to find out what was going on.

The problem was that there were too few clues in this case, other than anger and rage.

This was the only thing the three people who self-combusted had in common.

Brother Tiger's ashes had already been taken away for testing by the Martial Suppression Office. What was the result? Su Jingxing worked on his computer and hacked into the Martial Suppression Office's internal system. However, he didn't find any records.

It was either the test was not done yet,

or the Martial Suppression Office would not upload such cases onto the internal network and would only keep paper documents.

Su Jingxing was leaning towards the second possibility.

If he wanted to check the test results, he had to personally make a trip to the Martial Suppression Office.

Well, there was no need for him to go personally. The Blood Doppelganger could go on his behalf.

The Blood Doppelganger that had shrank into a ball immediately rushed to the Martial Suppression Office's Western District branch under the control of his will.

Su Jingxing didn't give up on online intelligence either.

He wrote a small software and hacked into the forums and communities of the various prefectures in Yu Nation.

Any posts containing keywords such as "self-combustion", "human self-combustion", "rage self-combustion", "anger self-combustion" and so on were automatically captured and sent to Su Jingxing's computer.

Su Jingxing then connected it to his phone so that he could check on them at any time.

This method was not entirely accurate.

After all, not everyone liked to expose information online.

If the Martial Suppression Office had been the first to discover the case and sealed off information, it would not have appeared online.

Su Jingxing just wanted to try his luck. He would take whatever he could find.

It was better than having nothing at all.

After the Blood Doppelganger arrived at the Martial Suppression Office's Western District branch, it hid in a corner and avoided the surveillance cameras before heading straight to the laboratory department.

It was late at night, but the place was still brightly lit. There were many people around.

The Blood Doppelganger hid outside the window and pressed against the wall, waiting for an opportunity.

Half an hour later, it finally caught what Su Jingxing wanted to hear.

"How is it? Is there anything abnormal?"

Qi Zhaochen's voice!

"No. We tested three times, but we didn't find anything abnormal. It's no different from ordinary ashes."

"Impossible! There's definitely something wrong with this. It's impossible for there to be nothing abnormal."

"Team Leader Liu, if you don't believe me, you can get someone else to examine it and see if I'm lying to you." "What do you…"

"Old Liu, shut up." Qi Zhaochen's voice sounded again. "Since Wang Ke's three tests showed no anomalies, it means that there's nothing wrong with the ashes. The source is something else."

"Commissioner Qi, if you can get a living corpse, perhaps you'll be able to find the key factor."

"Hey, let's not even talk about how corpses have to be cremated as quickly as possible. Even if there were living corpses, do you think they could be preserved? This mother and son were burned to ashes in less than ten seconds!" "Then there's nothing we can do."

"It's fine." Qi Zhaochen's voice was very calm. "If there's a chance, I'll try to preserve some human tissue."

"That'll be difficult! How are you going to preserve human tissue if they burn into ashes in less than ten seconds? In my opinion, this is probably due to human manipulation. Someone is testing the power of a new secret ability!"

"Human manipulation? Then how do you explain six cases of self-combustion in four places, the Silver Prefecture City, Dashun Prefecture's Cold City, Treasure Elephant City, and Qinghe City? Who can commit crimes in three prefectures at the same time?" Qi Zhaochen countered.

"This… It might be someone from the same organization! For example, Ghost Ride? That's right, it's most possible that it's Ghost Ride The members of this ancient organization never do anything proper and love to cause trouble. This might also be a conspiracy created by them!"

The more Old Liu went on, the more excited he became. "I've already thought of the reason. To take revenge for their failure of the Green Cloud Mountain Range plan.

"Although I don't know what happened in the Green Cloud Mountain Range, I know that one of Ghost Ride's schemes failed and many people died. I heard that there was a first-grade martial artist among them!

"A first-grade martial artist. For any faction, people in this realm are in the minority, and they are the upper echelons of the upper echelons. He died in the Green Cloud Mountain Range just like that. If I were the leader of Ghost Ride, I will definitely come back for revenge!"

"According to your logical analysis, it's really possible this is Ghost Ride's doing," Qi Zhaochen said hesitantly.

"Hahaha, it's definitely Ghost Ride!"

When Old Liu heard that, he smiled very happily. "We'll crack this case once we find Ghost Ride's members. With the three prefectures taking action at the same time. I don't believe we won't find them!"

"Alright, go ahead and report it like that." Qi Zhaochen's voice regained its calm.

"Huh? I'll report it?"

As the two of them left, Su Jingxing's Blood Doppelganger didn't hear anything else.

Even so, he had gotten enough information from their conversation.

Firstly, there was no problem with Brother Tiger's ashes. The test results were the same as ordinary ashes.

Secondly, there weren't three, but six people who had died from self-combustion today!

Qinghe City, Treasure Elephant City, Dashun Prefecture's Cold City, Silver Prefecture City.

Four cities, three neighboring prefectures.

There was only one case exposed online, but there were six actual cases, and the three others had been concealed.

The Martial Suppression Office suspected that it was Ghost Ride's doing.

Su Jingxing didn't think so.

Ghost Ride never did anything meaningless. They wreaked havoc for profit.

If there weren't any benefits, Ghost Ride would not do it.

To have six people self-combust and die, three of whom Su Jingxing knew were ordinary people. What were they after?

Just to cause panic among the three prefectures?

In Su Jingxing's opinion, there was no need for that.

If it was really to create chaos and make the public panic, it would be better to just toss bombs.

And intuitively, Su Jingxing was more willing to believe that this was not due to human manipulation!

Chapter 252 I've Seen Too Many

Since it's not due to human manipulation, it's a natural disaster.

But what kind of natural disaster is self-combustion?

Floods, droughts, typhoons, earthquakes, and so on are natural disasters. What kind of natural disaster is self-combustion? What a headache!

His train of thought was jammed again. Su Jingxing was having a headache.

Things were especially complicated.

Fortunately, Su Jingxing wasn't fighting alone. Strange self-combustion occurred in the three prefectures at the same time.

This case was no longer a matter for one city.

For now, it was probably still four cities searching one another.

When a few more people were incinerated, the three prefectures' administration would get involved for a joint investigation!

With this in mind, Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger and headed to the Martial Suppression Office's headquarters building in the Central District of Qinghe City.

vily.

The Western District branch could not continue the investigation. The matter was reported to the headquarters, and Li Linzhou, or even Bu Qing, would be personally responsible for it.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the Universal Envoy, Bu Qing, was still in Qinghe City.

Previously, Bu Qing had gotten injured. He might have stayed in Qinghe City to recuperate, or he might have returned to the capital.

Without any clues, Su Jingxing could only wait passively.

The next day.

Su Jingxing woke up early in the morning and went to the crematorium's canteen for breakfast. While at it, he also chatted with Gu Bo, Kong Dabao, and the others.

Everyone was very concerned about the strange self-combustion that took place in the crematorium.

Although they had been consoled, everyone had a gossipy mind. Even if they did not discuss it openly, they would still talk in private. Su Jingxing could almost be considered middle management now, so Kong Dabao and the others wanted to get some information out of

him.

In the end, they were naturally fooled by Su Jingxing.

There was no benefit in knowing more about such matters for Kong Dabao and the rest.

Other than feeling increasingly fearful, what else would they gain?

Nothing!

After the meal, he went into the working area and patrolled around as usual. Su Jingxing activated his secret ability and heard everyone whispering, including a few managers.

Clearly, everyone was curious about the outcome.

After Wu Shouhan came to work, the managers even secretly went to his office to inquire, but were naturally chased out.

But soon after, Su Jingxing was called to his office.

"What's wrong, Uncle Wu?" Su Jingxing asked as he walked into the office.

Wu Shouhan did not answer immediately. Instead, he got up and closed the office door. Then, he let out a breath and asked nervously and hesitantly, "Little Su, did you feel any discomfort after Xing Lunhu self-combusted yesterday?" Thump!

Su Jingxing's heart skipped a beat. Without changing his countenance, he asked confusedly, "Discomfort?" "Yes. Just feeling flustered, anxious, fearful, and so on."

Wu Shouhan sighed. "I won't hide it from you, Little Su. Yesterday, after I left the Martial Suppression Office and returned home, I felt inexplicably flustered. When I went to bed at night, I suddenly woke up…"

"You had a nightmare?" Su Jingxing interrupted.

"…Yes." Fear appeared in Wu Shouhan's eyes, and his voice trembled. "I… I dreamed of myself. Like Xing Lunhu, I suddenly self-combusted and was burned to death!"

Su Jingxing kept quiet. Xing Lunhu was Brother Tiger[1].

When this fellow self-destructed, Wu Shouhan was also very close to him.

Although Su Jingxing had pushed everyone away, the distance was limited. How could he push everyone far away so quickly? Therefore, Su Jingxing and Wu Shouhan ended up standing closer.

At that time, Su Jingxing had sensed a terrifying danger surrounding himself. When Wu Shouhan went home, he was also inexplicably flustered. He even had a nightmare of himself self-combusting last night.

Su Jingxing would never believe that this was a coincidence.

Of course, the truth was currently unknown, and Su Jingxing couldn't explain it directly.

After some thought, he comforted, "Uncle Wu, dreams are the opposite of reality. You probably had a nightmare last night because you were frightened during the day."

"The saying what you think about in the day, you dream about at night is referring to your situation."

"Take me for example. I slept through the night."

In fact, Su Jingxing didn't sleep at all last night. "Sigh…" Wu Shouhan covered his face with his hands and scratched hard a few times. He sighed and said, "Looks like I was really shocked and thought too much."

"…I was also shocked yesterday."

Su Jingxing smiled. "Who would have thought that… what Hu fellow? That he would suddenly self-combust and turn into ashes in less than ten seconds. Anyone would be shocked by that.

"Fortunately, I've seen so many corpses previously. In all kinds of terrible states, such as charred ones, dried ones, and dismembered ones. I've seen many of them that I've already developed my guts.

"Now, anytime I encounter any corpses or emergencies, I can get used to it quickly. I was shocked by what happened yesterday, but when I got home, I took a shower and slept. This morning, I was fine."

With that, Su Jingxing shrugged.

"Hahaha…" Wu Shouhan laughed heartily. "You've really trained yourself, kid. The job of moving corpses is indeed the best way to build up one's guts. When you encounter trouble after seeing so many corpses, there's indeed nothing to be afraid of."

"Alright, your words of consolation make perfect sense. I'll make arrangements for myself. I'll go move corpses for a day today!"

"That's the way!" Su Jingxing gave him a thumbs up, his face full of smiles.

It wasn't that he was deliberately tricking Wu Shouhan into moving corpses.

As a matter of fact, as long as there was work to do and he did not let his imagination run wild, he would not panic or fear.

It would be difficult to panic now since his attention had been diverted.

As for having nightmares, about self-combusting and being burnt to death,

Su Jingxing decided to give it a try.

He wanted to see if he would also dream of self-combusting and burning himself to death after falling asleep! At this thought, Su Jingxing left the office with Wu Shouhan.

Wu Shouhan went to the Corpse Collection Team. Su Jingxing went to his office and hypnotized himself to sleep.

Unexpectedly, just as he arrived at his office, before he even sat down, he heard a scream, followed by a commotion and more screams.

With Advanced Hearing, he learned that the voices were coming from the farewell ceremony hall.

The hall suddenly became chaotic. All kinds of voices were in a mess.

Su Jingxing froze when he heard two words.

Self-combustion!

Someone self-combusted again! In the farewell ceremony hall at that!

Swish!

When he came to his senses, Su Jingxing couldn't be bothered to try sleeping anymore. He immediately turned around and rushed out of the office to the farewell ceremony hall.

He sprinted at the speed of an ordinary eighth-grade martial artist.

When he arrived at the hall and squeezed through the crowd, he saw a few security guards, the managers, and Wu Shouhan, who had arrived earlier. They looked at the pile of ashes on the ground with grim and fearful expressions. "Uncle Wu, what's going on?" Su Jingxing walked over and asked softly.

"She… she self-combusted too!"

Wu Shouhan's voice was trembling. He pointed at the ashes on the ground and said, "This relative had been crying earlier, but as she cried, she suddenly started burning!"

Crying?

Not rage and anger?

Startled, Su Jingxing turned to look at the others around.

"You were all witnesses? You saw her crying and burning up?"

No one responded. The family members in the farewell ceremony hall were all terrified and pale.

Instead, a security guard said in a trembling voice, "I… I saw. She was indeed crying, and she was crying very sadly. In the end…"

He did not continue.

But the meaning was clear.

The woman who self-combusted did indeed burn while crying.

And the cause of this was not rage, but extreme grief!

Chapter 253 Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? (1)

Anger caused self-combustion, and so would

grief.

What did this mean?

It showed that the cause of the self-combustion came from a person's fluctuations of emotions. Once the fluctuations were too intense, self-combustion determinants would be activated.

Self-combustion determinants were the source, a barrel of oil, and pleasure, anger, sorrow, and joy were the matchsticks.

If the matchsticks were not lit, the oil would not burn.

With this inference, the problem returned to square one.

What was the self-combustion determinant?

Where did it come from? How did it come about? When did it enter the human body? How did it enter the human body? Did everyone have it, or did only a few people have it?

There wasn't an answer to any of the questions.

And without knowing the answers, the self-combustions wouldn't stop!

The matter would only get worse.

And that was indeed the case.

While waiting for the Martial Suppression Office's people to arrive at the crematorium, Su Jingxing's phone in his pocket began to vibrate non-stop.

Every vibration meant that the small software Su Jingxing had implanted in the forums and communities of each prefecture had captured a post related to the word "self-combustion".

Although not all of them were self-combustion cases, most of them were. After Qi Zhaochen led his men into the farewell ceremony hall and took charge of the scene, Su Jingxing found an excuse to leave and returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. He switched on his computer and added keywords into the hacking software.

Laughter, joy, grief, sorrow, and so on.

Then, he hacked again to extract information.

This time, the vibrations increased over time.

At night, Su Jingxing took out his phone and saw that there were 32 cases of self-combustion.

Within a day, 32 more cases were added.

These people were either in extreme grief, feeling overly excited, or overly angry. Every one of their emotions fluctuated violently. In front of others, they suddenly burst into flames and were reduced to ashes in less than 10 seconds. Then, the incidents were exposed on the Internet.

In the world of the Internet, it was very convenient to communicate among the prefectures. It was not like they were overseas where there were firewalls set up.

The Baiyin and Dashun Prefectures could quickly find out about the major incidents that had erupted on the Changyang Prefecture's network.

On the other hand, the Changyang Prefecture would also know about what happened in the Baiyin and Dashun Prefectures.

In that case, the three prefectures… No, the 32 new self-combustion cases were not limited to the three prefectures-Baiyin Changyang, and Dashun.

It also involved people from the northernmost Qianyan Prefecture.

In other words, there were 32 cases of self-combustion in the four prefectures in a day.

This was already a major case, and it had alarmed the entire nation.

"Qianyan, Baiyin, Changyang, and Dashun. Other than Changyang, who is close to the center, the other three prefectures are all in the north. Why are there people self-combusting in these places all of a sudden?"

"Who knows? 32 self-combustion cases in a day. This is serious. There must be something wrong!"

"There were already self-combustion cases yesterday, but there were very few of them. I didn't expect there to be so many cases today." "I'm just curious. Why are these self-combusting people so agitated before they burn? They were either raging or extremely

sad?"

"Yes, I did some calculations. The only thing these self-combusting people have in common is that their emotions were too intense. This might be the breakthrough point."

"Doesn't that mean that if we don't want to self-combust, we better keep calm?" "That might be for the best. Of course, no one knows the real reason for the self-combustion. Or does the Martial Suppression Office know?"

"My older brother is from the Martial Suppression Office. I eavesdropped, the Martial Suppression Office doesn't know the reason either. In short, this matter is serious! To be safe, it's best if everyone doesn't get too agitated these few days!"

Discussions broke out.

There was a commotion on the Internet and it caused a small-scale panic. However, it was still within control. With the Martial Suppression Office and the government's guidance, the situation could temporarily be stabilized.

When 30 odd people were scattered in four prefectures and ten odd cities, that left only one or two people in each city.

Therefore, although the public was a little frightened, it did not affect their normal lives.

Those who worked continued to work, and those who were schooling continued to attend school.

But in reality? "65 cases! In the four prefectures, there are 65 self-combustion cases. Changyang Prefecture alone has 17 cases. Have you guys found the reason?"

That night, in the headquarters building of the Martial Suppression Office, Su Jingxing heard the voice of the Changyang Prefecture's Prefecture Chief coming from the speakers through his Blood Doppelganger.

This was a high-level video conference.

Qinghe City, Treasure Elephant City, Changyang Prefecture City…

The City Guard, Commander of City Governance of the Martial Suppression Office and relevant personnel of every city with self-combustion cases were present to discuss countermeasures online. When Su Jingxing caught the total of 65 cases through his Blood Doppelganger, though he already had his guesses, he was still shocked.

Only 32 cases were exposed online. He thought that two-thirds of them were exposed, while only one-third were not.

Unexpectedly, only half had been exposed.

There were 65 people who had self-combusted and died today.

Compared to yesterday, the number had been multiplied by 10!

The spreading rate was climbing too fast.

At this rate, how many cases would there be tomorrow? And the day after tomorrow?

Su Jingxing couldn't imagine it.

Neither could the Changyang Prefecture's Prefecture Chief, the various City Guards and Commanders of City Governance who had participated in the video conference.

The Prefecture Chief's expression was most grim as he subconsciously raised his voice.

"I'm asking you guys a question. Are you all mute? Aren't all of you usually better at talking than the other? Why are you so lifeless today?

"There are 65 cases today, will there be 100 tomorrow? If you still can't find the reason, I'll fire all of you first before I'm removed from my post!"

The City Guards were speechless.

All the Commanders of City Governance were equally speechless.

The Martial Suppression Office was not under administration of the prefectures and only took orders from the headquarters in the capital. Their highest-ranking leader was the Head Supervisor.

Chapter 254 Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? (2)

However, since they were in charge of various cities, the Martial Suppression Offices' Commanders of City Governance naturally had to cooperate with the City Guards.

This was stipulated by the cabinet.

The City Guards could not dispatch the Commanders of City Governance, but if anything happened to the City Guards, the Commanders would still have to bear the responsibility. The two forces supported each other and also restrained each other.

Therefore, when the Prefecture Chief scolded the City Guards, Commanders also indirectly took some of it. Through the Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing could not see the expressions of Li Linzhou and the others. However, he knew that their expressions must be complicated.

Find the source of the self-combustion?

While it sounded nice, it would be extraordinarily difficult to take action. In any case, no one had discovered anything.

It was because once the people began burning, they would be reduced to ashes in less than ten seconds. It all happened too quickly.

So quickly that no one could react or stop it.

Without corpses to study, how could they find the source?

This was a dead end to begin with. Without a start, how could investigations be launched?

Silence. Only silence. Everyone fell silent after the Prefecture Chief ended his scolding.

Just as Su Jingxing thought that the video conference was over, the Prefecture Chief spoke again. His voice came through the speakers.

"If you can't find the reason, lower the self-combustion rate!

"The analysis online is very accurate. The people who have died of self-combustion died because their emotions were too agitated.

"Regardless of the truth, while we have not found the reason, keeping people calm is the best solution for now.

"After the meeting is over, immediately pass down orders to use all channels to keep the people from making a big fuss over the next few days. It's best if everyone can keep calm.

"Alright, the meeting is over. Dismissed!"

The video conference ended.

After a moment of silence, Li Linzhou and the Qinghe City Guard continued to video call each other to discuss how to carry out the publicity.

The impact of this incident was too great. Li Linzhou was also going to appear on television.

In the past, Li Linzhou rarely appeared on television, but this time, he had no choice but to do so.

As the number one expert in Qinghe City, Li Linzhou's words carried more weight and faith than the City Guard.

Through his Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing continued to listen for a moment. Seeing that there was no other news, he immediately moved silently to another corner to prevent Li Linzhou from noticing.

The Prefecture Chief had given orders to appease the various cities. This matter was inevitable.

Su Jingxing's main body was at home. He switched on the television and waited for an hour or so. As expected, he saw Li Linzhou appear on the television for a live broadcast.

The broadcast was also available simultaneously online.

Similar activities were going on in other cities, the Qianyan Prefecture, the Dashun Prefecture, and the Baiyin Prefecture.

The officials personally appeared to get everyone to keep calm. Early the next morning, the television stations, the Internet, radio broadcasts, newspapers, and other channels continued the publicity.

When the residents in the cities saw this, they reacted differently. The residents of the functional towns reacted much more simply.

The fewer people there were, the fewer conflicts there would be, and naturally, there would be fewer incidents.

It was different in the city. Every city in Yu Nation had a population of about 10 million people.

The larger ones, the 18 prefecture cities, had between 8 to 15 million people.

The capital was an exception, it had a population of more than 20 million people.

With more people, there would naturally be more conflicts and more trouble.

As such, even though the government was publicizing and appealing, conflicts still erupted from time to time.

In the end, after a day, there were more than 300 self-combustion cases in the four prefectures.

This number was only those exposed on the Internet. In reality, there were more than 600 cases.

The number of cases had multiplied by ten again!

The situation immediately caused panic.

In the cities that were exposed, the residents were all in a state of panic, paranoia, afraid that their emotions would become agitated and they would strangely self-combust.

The crematorium's farewell ceremony hall also became silent at once. Farewell ceremonies were stopped. Those who died from illness, accidents, or jumped off buildings were sent straight to the incinerator.

Logically speaking, once things calmed down, the frequency of conflict would decrease.

It was difficult for one's emotions to become intense when they were stable.

However, for some reason, the invisible danger that Su Jingxing sensed grew stronger and stronger.

The unknown threat was getting closer and more prominent.

At night, Wu Shouhan slept. In his dreams, he dreamed of himself self-combusting and burning to death.

Su Jingxing tried to sleep, but he didn't dream of self-combustion. Instead, he dreamed of boundless darkness.

This was the feedback from daydreaming too much.

It had nothing to do with the source of the self-combustion.

In the past, it would be the best news if there was no relationship.

But right now, Su Jingxing wasn't in the least bit happy.

The danger was getting closer and closer, but no one knew what it was.

Things were developing as he had expected.

Not only did it not get better, it was getting worse!

The next day, the number of cases exceeded 2,000 online, but the actual number was more than 6,000.

Another ten-fold increase!

This time, everyone in the dozens of cities of the four prefectures–Changyang, Baiyin, Dashun, and Qianyan panicked.

Those with connections, and money all escaped to other prefectures. This was because none of the other dozen or so prefectures in the Yu Nation had seen any self-combustion cases!

More than 6,000 self-combustion cases were concentrated in the four prefectures.

How could the people of the four prefectures not be afraid?

Even Su Jingxing wanted to escape, let alone ordinary people.

However, that night, Su Jingxing flew on his sword to the southernmost area on his sword and tried to sense the danger.

He similarly sensed a terrifying danger approaching!

This meant that there was an invisible danger, and the strange self-combustion wouldn't always be limited to the four prefecturesChangyang, Baiyin, Qianyan, and Dashun.

It would spread to other prefectures!

Escaping to other prefectures was useless. It was only a matter of time.

Su Jingxing didn't know if anyone else had discovered this, but he felt his scalp tingle.

The strange self-combustion that affected the entire Yu Nation was now a natural disaster, even if it wasn't at first.

That night, a video conference with many people of even higher level was secretly held.

Through his Blood Doppelganger, Su Jingxing listened to the voices of the other Prefecture Chiefs of the Yu Nation's 18 prefectures and the big shots in the cabinet.

Within a day, there were more than 6,000 self-combustion cases. The cabinet could not help but feel nervous. "Everyone, to this day, I believe everyone is aware of the number of people who have died in the self-combustion cases. But what I want to say is, according to the latest intelligence, the first case of self-combustion was not the cheating husband from the Baiyin Prefecture, but the self-combusting corpse in the Qianyan Prefecture!

"That's right. Everyone, you didn't hear wrongly. The first case of self-combustion this time was in the crematorium at the foot of the Eastern District's mountain in the Qianyan Prefecture's Fog City. A corpse that was placed in the morgue suddenly self-combusted. After that, the crematorium concealed the matter because it was afraid of causing trouble. The family members didn't know, and neither did the City Guard of Fog City.

"Therefore, self-combustion was not targeted at living people at the very beginning, but corpses!

"Although these corpses had died because they were too agitated and they only self-combusted after that, there are still doubts. Why did it start with corpses?"

There was a moment of silence.

"I have something to say about this. Could the source of the self-combustion be related to corpses?"

"General Yang, are you talking about the Corpse-raising Devil Insect?"

"Not the Corpse-raising Devil Insect, but the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect! Could the self-immolation case be caused by a new kind of Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? Some Extraterrestrial Devil Insects don't have physical bodies and are purely energy bodies. We can't see them with the naked eye. If these Extraterrestrial Devil Insects cause trouble and burrow into the human body and then ignite them through intense emotional fluctuations, wouldn't that cause strange self-combustion?"

"That makes sense! Once self-combustion begins, people are reduced to ashes in less than 10 seconds. There won't even be time to examine them. If this is really the doing of the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect, and the insect is also burnt to ashes, we really won't know about it."

"Is there such an Extraterrestrial Devil Insect? If there is, it should have appeared long ago. Why are there no records from before?"

"No one knows how many types of Extraterrestrial Devil Insects there are to begin with. Who knows how many types there are?"

"Agreed. The source of the self-combustion cases is most likely caused by the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect. Once we find this Extraterrestrial Devil Insect, we should be able to crack this and prevent the self-combustion from continuing."

"The problem is how would we find it? There are so many people. Who will self-destruct? Who won't? No one knows. We can't possibly scan everyone with Martial Art True Intent, right?"

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"I think…"

"Everyone!"

A deep voice suddenly sounded, suppressing the others.

"Everyone, stop talking about the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect. The self-combustion cases have nothing to do with it!"

Chapter 255 Essence Soul! (1)

"What clues do you have, Prime Minister Pei?"

"It has nothing to do with the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect. Are you sure?"

"I'm sure! It has only been about 80 years since the Extraterrestrial Devil Insect descended on Earth Star, and similar cases of self-combustion have already happened more than 1,000 years ago!"

"What?"

"More than a thousand years ago? Prime Minister Pei, where did you find the relevant information? Can you confirm it? If it's fake, it can't be evidence."

"Everyone, keep quiet first. Let Prime Minister Pei speak first."

More than 10 voices sounded without end.

In the end, one person stopped them, signaling Prime Minister Pei to continue.

"More than a thousand years ago, in the southern part of the Western Continent, there was a dynasty called Divine Wind. This dynasty had been established for more than 800 years, and its territory was twice the size of the Yu Nation. There were many experts and powerhouses in the country. Although the population couldn't be compared to the current one, at that time, the Divine Wind Nation was one of the three hegemons of the Western Continent.

"However, in the year 876 of the Divine Wind Calendar, a strange self-combustion case first took place in a small city. Slowly, the cases spread to a prefecture, three prefectures, half the nation. Finally, in all the major cities of the Divine Wind Nation, there were people who strangely self-combusted.

"The cause of self-combustion was different from what we are experiencing this time. It was not overly intense emotions, but fear!

"Hold on, let me interrupt for a moment. In our self-combustion cases, there were also people who were too scared and ended up burning to death."

"I know." Prime Minister Pei's voice continued. "The cause of our self-combustion this time is intense fluctuations of emotions, including everything. Fear, anger, sorrow, excitement, and so on will all cause self-combustion.

"However, the strange self-combustion in the Divine Wind Nation was different. According to the records of other dynasties in later generations, the citizens of the Divine Wind Nation had self-combusted due to fear. The more fearful they were, the stronger the flames, and the faster they burned.

"As a result, as more people died due to self-combustion, the more fearful others became. And the more fearful they were, the more they would strangely self-combust and eventually burn into ashes.

"Be it martial artists or ordinary humans, as long as they feel fear, they will fall for it. There was no exception.

"It's different for us this time. Ordinary people and low-level martial artists are unable to resist, but those in the top ranks who have condensed Martial Art True Intent need not fear!"

Hmm?

Su Jingxing's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

Martial artists in the top ranks need not fear?

Because of Martial Art True Intent? Martial Art True Intent can resist the invasion of the source of the strange self-combustion?

"Prime Minister Pei, are you saying that Martial Art True Intent can make one immune to self-combustion?" asked someone in good time on the video call.

"To be precise, Martial Art True Intent can sense danger. After Martial Art True Intent is activated, it can block the invasion of the invisible danger," Prime Minister Pei replied in a low voice. "This sort of blocking depends on Martial Art True Intent and our consciousness. The stronger the mind of a martial artist in the top ranks, the easier it will be to block."

"In fact, according to our predictions, martial artists in the top ranks with powerful soul power can activate their Martial Art True Intent and possibly find the source of self-combustion!"

"So, we are different from the Divine Wind Nation?" someone asked. "That's right. The strange self-combustions that the Divine Wind Nation encountered were impossible to resist, and the mental and soul power of a first-grade expert was useless. No matter where they went, they would ultimately self-combust as fear intensified. The massive Divine Wind Nation that had existed for more than 800 years was eventually destroyed.

"We are different. Martial artists in the top ranks can sense danger through their soul power and Martial Art True Intent. As long as we are fast and find the source of the self-combustion before it spreads across the country, we can stop this catastrophe!" Catastrophe, this was directly categorized as a catastrophe. The Divine Wind Nation from more than a thousand years ago perished due to strange self-combustions.

Now that a similar situation had appeared in the Yu Nation, if they couldn't deal with the source, they probably wouldn't be able to escape the fate of perishing as a nation as well.

When Su Jingxing heard this, although he was mentally prepared, he still fell into a daze.

Perish?

At the very end, the self-combustion could lead to the destruction of the Yu Nation?

This was not what Su Jingxing wanted.

With the Yu Nation destroyed and all its citizens self-combusting and dying, Su Jingxing wouldn't be able to escape either!

Prime Minister Pei had said that the Divine Wind Nation was completely wiped out in the end.

No matter where one went, it was unavoidable.

Such a disastrous way of destroying a nation was simply inconceivable.

Su Jingxing knew that martial artists in the top ranks could sense danger.

After all, the stronger one's soul power, the stronger their sense of danger would be compared to those in the lower and middle ranks.

But it was unknown if Martial Art True Intent could resist the danger.

Su Jingxing had sensed danger before, but he avoided it before it reached him.

This made Su Jingxing have to wait slowly even if he wanted to try.

"So, what you mean is to mobilize all the martial artists in the top ranks of the nation to head to the four prefectures to sense for the source of the danger?" A voice sounded.

"That's right!"

Prime Minister Pei continued. "Fewer people can be sent to Changyang, Baiyin, and Dashun and more to Qianyan. I suspect that the source of the danger is still in the Qianyan Prefecture."

"Where it first started?"

"What proof do you have? If the source is still in Qianyan, then the other three prefectures should be seeing fewer self-combustion cases. But the truth is that Changyang, Baiyin, and Dashun have more people self-combusting!"

"There are more, but since the very first case of self-combustion was in Qianyan Prefecture, the probability that the source is there is higher." "Alright, I agree." "I agree too."

A wave of people voicing their support took place. Finally, Prime Minister Pei made the decision to confirm the order to send top-ranked experts to the four prefectures.

Chapter 256 Essence Soul! (2)

Changyang, Baiyin, Dashun, Qianyan!

The order was to be executed immediately.

The video conference ended there.

Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger and was about to leave when he suddenly heard an old voice.

"Linzhou, you can come back now."

"Go back? I can't stay in Qinghe any longer? If I do, will I die?" Li Linzhou replied calmly. "Yes." The old man's voice was low. "Prime Minister Pei was not joking. The Divine Wind Nation was wiped out in the end. The truth was that all its citizens burned to death!"

"And then? Will our Yu Nation follow in the footsteps of the Divine Wind Nation?" Li Linzhou responded calmly. "If that's the case, what's the point of me returning to the capital? Since I'm going to die anyway, I might as well stay in Qinghe. It's quieter here. It'll make a pretty good burial ground."

"Do you want to die?" growled the old man. "If you do, why would you live till now?"

"That has nothing to do with you," Li Linzhou replied stiffly.

"Hmph!" The old man snorted coldly. "I'm not going to waste my breath on you. Hurry, immediately, back to the capital!"

With that, there was silence. He disconnected.

Su Jingxing had a strange look on his face.

The owner of this aged voice was most likely Li Linzhou's master, a first-grade expert, a cabinet member, and the Head Supervisor of the Martial Suppression Office!

From the conversation, the relationship between the two sounded very complicated.

At any other time, Su Jingxing wouldn't mind getting some nice gossip. But now that danger was approaching, he had no time to bother about anything else. The Blood Doppelganger first left the Martial Suppression Office building and rushed back to the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Martial Art True Intent could sense danger.

Su Jingxing decided to give it a try.

It would be best if he could find the source of the danger.

When fully invested in Martial Art True Intent, It was best to have a protector guarding one.

The Blood Doppelganger was the best protector.

He waited for the Blood Doppelganger to arrive at the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Su Jingxing's main body decisively sat cross-legged and did not move. Then, his Martial Art True Intent manifested.

"He" slowly floated up and sensed his surroundings, the sky, and the ground.

One minute, two minutes, three minutes…

Almost ten minutes later, Su Jingxing sensed it.

It wasn't a sense of danger!

Instead, there were 13 of them!

Or rather, thirteen sharp objects that looked like sharp knives were floating in the air.

The distant ones were on the mountains, and the closer ones were above the river.

Su Jingxing couldn't sense the specific shapes of these sharp objects. He only knew that they existed. Su Jingxing even sensed many similar sharp objects further away.

They were the source of the terrifying danger!

There are many sources?

Realizing this, Su Jingxing was shocked.

There are many sources. Of course, they might all be the same, only there are more of them.

One source invades one person.

In that case, wouldn't that mean…

Pak!

A crisp sound suddenly came from his sea of consciousness.

Su Jingxing's Martial Art True Intent immediately returned to his physical body. His Blood Doppelganger released its aura and remained vigilant of the surroundings.

However, in the next second, Su Jingxing's expression turned strange. He was a little excited and stunned.

This was because a tremendous change was happening in his sea of consciousness.

His sea of consciousness was originally as calm as a spring.

However, at that moment, the spring water was boiling. It was jumping and churning nonstop.

A brand new Su Jingxing emerged from the "spring":

From top to bottom, his head, shoulders, chest, and finally his limbs were all exposed.

The moment it manifested, his Martial Art True Intent suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness and entered the chest of the new Su Jingxing.

The moment it entered, Su Jingxing knew what this brand new self was.

Essence Soul!

After unlocking the Divine Defense Card, the mysterious existence that had been nourished by soul power for a month had finally hatched.

Swish!

It looked exactly like Su Jingxing, but the Essence Soul condensed from multiple powers had separated from his sea of consciousness and materialized in reality.

Su Jingxing's main body continued to sit cross-legged. The Blood Doppelganger beside him waited quietly.

After the brand new Essence Soul appeared, the Blood Doppelganger took a closer look.

It resembled both a physical body and a spiritual energy soul.

It reached out and pinched it. It could be touched, but with a thought from Su Jingxing, the Essence Soul immediately turned illusory and could not be touched.

In other words, Su Jingxing could determine its forms at will.

As for the ability of the Essence Soul…

"Su Jingxing" looked up at a red dot above the river.

The source of the terrifying danger!

That's right, the Essence Soul could see the source of the danger.

His Martial Art True Intent could only sense the general location.

However, the Essence Soul could see it directly.

Moreover, this field of vision could be directly zoomed in with Su Jingxing's will.

It was fat, like a stomach. At the top was a sharp head with long spikes.

There were also a pair of small wings on both sides. The translucent wings did not flap, but they could help it to fly in the air.

Circles of flames surrounded it, making it look like a speck of light.

Is this the source of the danger?

A strange lifeform? A body the size of a mosquito?

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul stared at the other party in shock.

The pair of tiny eyes on the strange lifeform's head suddenly turned around and looked at Su Jingxing's Essence Soul.

Then…

Swish!

With a sudden sprint, the strange lifeform fled at lightning speed.

It escaped!

Yes, it had escaped!

Su Jingxing was puzzled, but his thoughts did not pause. He decisively controlled the Essence Soul to chase after it.

Su Jingxing was shocked to discover that the Essence Soul moved too fast.

No, it couldn't be described with speed.

Rather, it had directly shuttled through!

The Essence Soul covered a distance of hundreds of meters in a single step.

The entire process was like passing through a spatial door to reach its destination.

Such a movement method was simply unimaginable.

If he hadn't experienced it himself, Su Jingxing would never have imagined it.

However, at this moment, the Essence Soul had gone straight ahead and was still continuing. The strange lifeform fled.

Su Jingxing caught up. The moment he did, his heart stirred. He condensed the Heaven Origin Saber and gently slashed at the strange lifeform.

There was no sound, no strange sound.

It was like an eraser, wiping away the chalk without leaving any traces.

The strange lifeform was easily wiped out by the Heaven Origin Saber.

So cool?

Su Jingxing was stunned. Was his Essence Soul too strong, or was the strange lifeform too weak?

In the Essence Soul's vision, the 13 strange life forms were all identical.

Now that he had killed one, the other 12 ran even faster.

Su Jingxing didn't give chase. Instead, he turned around and looked towards Qinghe City.

In the Essence Soul's vision, there were about a hundred red dots floating in the sky above Qinghe City. They were the strange lifeforms.

These strange creatures were all the same. They floated in the air and did not cause any abnormalities.

Not even a breeze…

That's right, the Essence Soul could not sense wind!

Wind could not affect the Essence Soul either.

The strange lifeforms seemed to be unaffected as well.

The entire world in the Essence Soul's vision was light blue. He didn't know if it was because of the night or it was always like this.

At this moment, Su Jingxing couldn't be bothered to think. Instead, he stared at the sky above Qinghe City. Then, through the air, he continued to look at the distant horizon.

Especially the north!

His field of vision kept expanding.

He zoomed, zoomed and zoomed.

Finally, Su Jingxing's Essence Soul saw a hole in the distant horizon in the north!

There was a hole in the sky!

This hole was directly connected to the void.

However, the strange thing was that not a single spatial storm or other energy aura leaked out.

It was like a hole had appeared on a calm mirror plane.

And those strange lifeforms were constantly coming to the real world through this hole.

He had found the source of the terrifying danger! Group after group of strange lifeforms arrived in Yu Nation through a basin-sized hole in the northern horizon.

After they arrived, they split up and flew towards the cities of Qianyan Prefecture, Dahun Prefecture, Baiyin Prefecture, and Changyang Prefecture!

Swish!

With a single step, Su Jingxing's Essence Soul covered several kilometers. It took another step and left Changyang Prefecture.

With a thought, he tried to get the Essence Soul to fly in the air.

Whoosh!

The Essence Soul floated up.

He did not feel any gravity or air resistance.

The Essence Soul floated in the air, covering several kilometers per step.

After passing through the Baiyin Prefecture, it arrived at the Qianyan Prefecture and came to the hole in the void.

It watched as groups of strange little lifeforms passed through the hole and descended into reality.

However, at a certain moment, the Essence Soul saw that on the other end of the hole, a strange lifeform suddenly approached the hole and stretched out its snake-like neck. It passed through the hole and looked down at Su Jingxing!

Chapter 257 Magical Space (1)

As their gazes met, the neck of the strange life snake shrank. Its head and neck pulled back into the hole, and its entire body quickly retreated.

Escaping!

Just like the strange little lifeforms, this weird lifeform also chose to escape immediately after discovering Su Jingxing. However, as soon as it ran, strings of strange little lifeforms that passed through the hole and arrived in the real world immediately stopped flowing in.

With this scene, how could Su Jingxing's Essence Soul still not understand this situation?

The cause, the true source of people self-combusting once their emotions fluctuated violently, was most likely this strange lifeform.

Were all those strange little lifeforms brought about by this weird lifeform? Or released by it?!

At this thought, Su Jingxing's Essence Soul condensed the Heaven Origin Saber and quickly slashed out three times. The attacks passed through the hole and probed for possible traps while chasing after the weird lifeform.

Then, the Essence Soul shuttled and passed through the hole.

Su Jingxing had seen the other side of the hole before. It wasn't another world, but more like an independent space.

Therefore, Su Jingxing wasn't afraid and quickly moved in.

The moment the Essence Soul passed through the hole, it was as if it had passed through a thin membrane and arrived in a strange space.

There were no sun, moon, or stars above this space. There was only an endless void. The higher one went, the darker it became.

It was the same everywhere, darkness and darkness.

However, the ground beneath its feet was extremely transparent like a glass pathway.

Through the glass membrane, Su Jingxing's Essence Soul saw a map.

The Yu Nation's mountains and rivers, the map of the 18 prefectures!

A geography of the 18 prefectures that was several times smaller. All the details could be clearly seen!

It would be a lie to say that Su Jingxing's Essence Soul wasn't surprised to see this "map".

However, the strange lifeform that was escaping had yet to be dealt with. Without taking a second look, he suppressed the shock in his heart and quickly condensed the Heaven Origin Saber. Chasing after the strange lifeform that had run a distance away, it shot out. The Heaven Origin Saber was used as a throwing dagger to block its way.

The effect was not bad. With a slash of the saber, it struck the strange lifeform. This weird creature, which looked 70% like an ostrich, had a drainage pipe organ on both sides. From time to time, strange little lifeforms would be sprayed out.

The case was solved!

The strange little lifeforms that invaded the four prefectures of the Yu Nation and caused people to self-combust were released by this weird creature that resembled an ostrich!

The spot that was struck by the Heaven Origin Saber was the ostrich creature's butt.

The ostrich creature let out a strange scream. Its voice was ear-piercing and extremely penetrative, targeting the soul.

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul shook. Sensing danger, he decisively condensed a second and third saber slash.

The target was the ostrich's neck and head!

Releasing it from a distance, it quickly shuttled through the air. Just as the second strike was about to hit, the ostrich's neck shook and it dodged. The third strike was slightly better. It brushed past its head and disappeared into the darkness in the distance.

This brush brought away the ostrich's scalp, causing it to scream even louder. Su Jingxing's Essence Soul trembled even more violently.

He forcefully endured it and quickly condensed the fourth and fifth saber moves.

This time, the fourth strike struck the neck, and the fifth strike missed.

The Heaven Origin Saber passed through the creature's neck and quickly cut off a small part of it.

The ostrich creatures's head and body successfully separated and fell to the ground that looked like a "glass membrane".

The scream stopped, and its body trembled.

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul no longer shook. It increased its speed and chased after it. It arrived beside the ostrich creature and looked down at this strange life form.

Its head and body were separated, but the ostrich creature was not dead. Its pitch-black eyes were fixed on Su Jingxing.

"There's no need to look at me. It's useless."

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul condensed the Heaven Origin Saber and stabbed at the head of the ostrich creature.

Pu!

The ostrich creature's head turned into a cloud of mist and disappeared. Its trembling body slowly turned into a pale purple light orb. It was the size of an egg and floated in midair.

Looking at the light orb, his Essence Soul subconsciously sucked in a breath.

I want to eat it!

This light orb could be eaten, and there were benefits to doing so!

The subconsciousness of the Essence Soul surprised Su Jingxing.

He looked at the strange little lifeforms that had scattered. After the ostrich creature's head dissipated, they also turned into sparks and disappeared. After pondering for a moment, he decided to give it a try. He wrapped his soul power around the pale purple light orb and slowly approached.

Swish! Swish!

There was no need to open his mouth to swallow it. When the pale purple light orb was half an inch away from the Essence Soul, the Essence Soul body automatically released a absorption force, controlling the pale purple light orb and quickly absorbing it.

As if it was absorbing water, large amounts of mysterious power entered the Essence Soul's body to replenish its exhaustion from before and increase its soul power greatly.

Before long, the pale purple light orb was completely absorbed and destroyed.

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul body had received sufficient replenishment and was even stronger than before.

Su Jingxing was still figuring out what the Essence Soul's ability was. Whether it was powerful or not was also being tested.

But overall, it was still related to soul power. The stronger the soul power, the more agile the Essence Soul was.

As for the exact details, he had to slowly get used to them.

At this moment, Su Jingxing controlled the Essence Soul body to walk slowly in this magical space. Above its head was the void, surrounded by darkness, and beneath its feet was the light blue Yu Nation!

The location of each of the 18 prefectures of the Yu Nation, which had shrunk several times, was clearly displayed.

Miraculously, whichever prefecture Su Jing moved to, the area where the residence was located became "lit up".

It was like an automatic light that would turn on when someone appeared.

When the person leaves, it goes out. It traveled west, going past one prefecture and another.

Soon, it arrived at the westernmost Luori Prefecture. Further ahead was darkness.

Unlike literal darkness, he could see a thing or two occasionally.

The outermost periphery of the Luori Prefecture was originally where the Boundless Mountain Range was located. The corresponding area was a sheet of darkness without any light.

Completely dark!

Su Jingxing stood at the edge and looked at the darkness ahead.

Suddenly, he felt an indescribable fear. It was fear that came from his soul.

It was as if there was a great terror hidden in the darkness ahead!

Whereby once the Essence Soul stepped in, it would be shattered! "I can't go in!"

Su Jingxing's heart raced, and the Essence Soul body shuddered.

he next moment, Su Jingxing decisively retreated and headed north in the direction he came from. He found the hole that the Essence Soul had came through.

The Essence Soul body descended through the hole and passed through the glass membrane to return to the actual world.

It subconsciously swept its gaze around and checked the strange little lifeforms that had scattered everywhere.

As expected, they were all gone! With the death of the ostrich creature, these strange little life forms released by the it also dissipated completely. Without the strange little lifeforms, no one would self-combust due to anger, fear, and grief anymore.

The catastrophe that affected the entire country was thus eliminated.

Although no one knew, Su Jingxing heaved a sigh of relief.

The Essence Soul looked up at the hole that was still there.

As it watched, it suddenly had a thought and reached out to touch the ground of the glass membrane.

As expected, even without passing through the hole, the Essence Soul's hand could still pass through the glass membrane and enter the mysterious space above.

However, Su Jingxing keenly sensed that it consumed soul power to pass through the glass membrane.

In other words, there was a price to pay for such penetration.

Without enough soul power, the Essence Soul similarly could not pass through the glass membrane and ascend into the mysterious space above.

The Essence Soul carefully sensed the mysterious glass membrane and realized that it could be repaired!

The hole could be patched up by expending soul power.

After some thought, Su Jingxing controlled the Essence Soul body and placed both hands on the sides of the hole. He released his soul power and pulled the sides towards the center like he was pulling rubber.

Unexpectedly, he really managed to extend the sides.

Moreover, they grew longer and closer.

Finally, the entire hole came together perfectly and the hole was removed.

Done!

The ostrich creature had made use of this hole to release the strange little lifeforms and enter the Yu Nation.

Now that the hole was gone, even if another ostrich creature appeared, it would not be easy to invade the Yu Nation.

"Speaking of which, where did that ostrich creature come from?

"The dark area outside the borders?

"Also, why is the mysterious space above only reflecting the Yu Nation's territory?

"Or does every country have such a magical space?

"What's the meaning of the existence of a magical space? When did it first appear? Has it existed since ancient times, or was it created by some big shot?"

Questions!

Recalling this strange experience, Su Jingxing's mind was filled with questions.

But no one could answer them.

After expending a large amount of soul power to repair the hole, the Essence Soul body was somewhat exhausted. Without caring about anything else, it quickly rushed back to Qinghe City.

In the capital.

A luxurious minibus drove along the quiet road under the protection of a dozen cars.

The sky was already brightening up. A new day was about to begin.

On the brightly lit bus, there were more than ten people of all ages and genders with varying auras, but they remained silent with varying expressions.

If an outsider was present and got a clear look of their faces, he would definitely scream.

The reason was simple. These men and women were none other than the Yu Nation's cabinet members!

Including the highest-ranked marshal of the military, the Martial Suppression Office's Head Supervisor, the Prime Minister, and the Deputy Prime Ministers…

All of the cabinet members restrained their auras and sat in their seats silently.

These cabinet big shots who had just had a remote video conference were gathered together in the same bus. The atmosphere was especially tense.

As the sky grew brighter and brighter, a towering mountain appeared ahead.

A Deputy Prime Minister finally couldn't take it anymore. He broke the silence and said, "Everyone, what do we say later?"

"What do you mean? What else can we say? Of course we'll ask directly! Things have already developed to this point, what's there to hide?"

"No, what if that person only made a mistake? And he's doing his best to repair and clear it up now? If we ask directly, wouldn't we be denouncing him?" "It's not denouncing. We just want to know the relevant situation. After all, Yu Nation doesn't belong to him alone. It belongs to all of us!"

"Heh heh, you guys are really ignorant and fearless. Denouncement? It's not that I'm belittling myself, but who here has the right to question that person? Although I heard that that person has a good temper and hasn't appeared again in the past few decades, don't forget who he is! What level he stands on, and what level we stand on!"

There was a moment of silence.

After a while, someone said with a sigh, "That's right. Even if that person made a mistake, it's not something we can question. The Xia Family is so arrogant, stirring up trouble everywhere and disregarding human lives, but we can't do anything to the Xia Family. Isn't it because we are afraid of that person's existence?"

Silence again.

"Alright, we can't rush this matter. We can only take it slow. It's not like we're really going to question him. We just want to know the truth. If that person refuses to tell us, it's no big deal for us to bow down a little."

"That's the only way…"

Suddenly, a ringtone sounded.

More than one, the phones in the pockets of the dozen people in the car started ringing.

The dense ringing broke the silence. While everyone was puzzled, their hearts tightened.

Has the situation turned serious again?

The dozen or so people hurriedly took out their phones and answered their respective calls.

"What… what happened? Say that again?"

"Are you sure? Did you sense wrongly?"

"It's gone now, but you're not sure if it's completely gone?"

"Good, good, good!"

In the vehicle, the people held their phones and had different reactions.

After hanging up, the Prime Minister was the first to speak. "Pass down the order, there's no need to go over. Tell the convoy to turn around and return to the city." "Yes!"

An expressionless middle-aged man in the front passenger seat responded in a deep voice. He picked up the walkie-talkie and informed the convoy to turn around.

The others heaved a sigh of relief and returned to their normal states. Some were even overjoyed.

"I knew it. With that person around, how could it be so easy for us to perish?" "Heh, that's not what you said earlier. Didn't you want to question him?"

"Gone. All the dangers in the four prefectures have disappeared. If I'm not wrong, the source of this self-combustion case has been resolved by that person!"

"Although many people died, fortunately, it was resolved quickly and did not cause a huge disaster."

"The Xia Family is going to be arrogant again." "Alright, as long as the Xia Family doesn't go overboard, just endure it."

"They're not overboard? In the past few years, what has the Xia Family not done overboard?"

"The Xia Family is indeed getting more and more arrogant. But, we should still endure it for now."

"You guys sure are patient, but I'm about to lose it."

"If you can't help it, what can you do? Annihilate the Xia Family and lure that person to come and kill us all?"

"Hmph!"

Silence returned to the vehicle.

The good mood immediately vanished.

All of them recovered their indifferent expressions.

Qinghe City.

In the small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Su Jingxing's Essence Soul descended from the sky and enjoyed the first ray of sunlight that shone on him.

Gentle sunlight would make one feel comfortable.

Yet when it landed on the Essence Soul's body, it felt as if it was being pricked by a dense array of needles.

That instant of pain and continuous pain made Su Jingxing hurriedly control the Essence Soul to return to his physical body and enter his sea of consciousness. After a while, the pain in his soul slowly disappeared.

"How is this possible? The Essence Soul can't see sunlight?"

"Is it because I have insufficient soul power?

"Or is it that the Essence Soul is naturally unable to see the sun?".

Su Jingxing pondered to himself.

He had to figure out everything about the Essence Soul himself.

Compared to his own Martial Art True Intent, the Essence Soul was even more special. Su Jingxing could feel that Martial Art True Intent still needed to rely on the physical body to exist. Even in the first-grade, when Martial Art True Intent leaves the body, it could remain undissipated for thousands of years, but that was still built on the foundation of the physical body. If the physical body was destroyed and no longer existed, Martial Art True Intent would slowly dissipate, unless a new physical body hosted it.

Just like the Martial Art True Intent of Liu Chenglong, the Rising Dragon Saber King, the Sishui Horned Dragon.

Had it not been for the fact that Su Jingxing had inherited the Sishui Horned Dragon, when Liu Chenglong's physical body perished, the Sishui Horned Dragon definitely would not have been able to last for long. At most, it would have dissipated in a month or two.

However, the Essence Soul was different!

Su Jingxing clearly sensed that Essence Souls could exist independently.

It did not need to rely on his physical body.

Even without a physical body, the Essence Soul could still be preserved for a long period of time. He could not promise a few hundred years, but decades would definitely be no problem.

The existence that was born from the Divine Defense Card had now become Su Jingxing's biggest, strongest, and final trump card.

Even if Su Jingxing's physical body was destroyed, he could still continue to live. Now, he realized that the Essence Soul could not manifest during the day. Wasn't that a joke?

Clearly, he had to find the source of the problem and fix this loophole.

"Is it due to insufficient soul power, or is it because of the Essence Soul itself?"

Su Jingxing pondered and returned to the house.

Indoors, the manifestation of the Essence Soul wasn't affected.

So, the reason is sunlight? When sunlight shone on an Essence Soul body, it causes damage.

Blocking sunlight would solve the problem.

But that's only treating the symptoms, not the root cause.

If I want the Essence Soul to be able to float around in sunlight, I will have to find the source of the problem.

Right, the Martial Sage's Manuscript!

I wonder if there are any records of this in the Martial Sage Manuscript left behind by Yue Dongliu. At this thought, Su Jingxing took out the Martial Sage's Manuscript and flipped through it carefully.

However, he did not see any mention of Essence Soul.

The majority of the manuscript was about the use of Martial Art True Intent.

How to invade other people's consciousness, protect, puppet, or attack.

There was no record of Essence Soul, so Su Jingxing could only give up and slowly proceed subsequently.

Use Martial Art True Intent then.

He temporarily put away his Essence Soul and placed it in his sea of consciousness.

The source of the self-combustion case was resolved.

The various cities in the Yu Nation, especially those in Changyang, Baiyin, Dashun, and Qianyan Prefectures, were still in a state of panic and could not calm down so quickly.

As a result, crime rates in major cities rose steadily.

Ambitious people and conspirators took the opportunity to wreak havoc, rob and rob. Su Jing had encountered a few when he went into town to get some necessities.

Of course, he also saw people from the Martial Suppression Office and the Public Security Team patrolling the streets, pursuing and suppressing those who committed crimes.

Ordinary people were fine, it was mainly martial artists. The group of martial artists who had just broken through to the seventh-grade or had yet to enter the sixth-grade took the opportunity to fight without any scruples.

On his way back after buying his daily necessities, Su Jingxing even saw a seventh-grade martial artist kidnapping women on the streets. He dragged them into a car by the street, tore off their clothes and forced himself onto them.

Outside the car, a group of people were standing guard and cursing at the others.

Absolutely unbridled.

The Martial Suppression Office had limited manpower, and the Public Security Team was no match for them.

Su Jingxing decisively slammed his palm down from a distance and sent the guards outside flying. Then, he grabbed at the air and shattered the windscreen. He pulled the man who was ripping clothes while laughing maniacally out of the car and slammed him onto the ground. His bones broke on the spot and he kept screaming.

"Good!"

"Good job, that's how he should be dealt with!"

"He's too arrogant. He's simply a beast. Such a person should just be killed!" "Shh, don't be so loud. I know this Brother Nan. He's from the Li Family!"

"The Li Family? Which Li Family?"

"Who else could it be? Of course it's the Qinghe's number one Li Family!"

"F*ck!"

The spectators in the distance were discussing fervently.

Su Jingxing frowned slightly as he listened.

No wonder he's so arrogant. Grabbing women off the streets and forcing himself on them after dragging them into the car.

Someone from the Li Family?

The Li Family have always had a good reputation. But with such a person around, if they don't get rid of him, they will sooner or later provoke someone they shouldn't be provoking and bring about a catastrophe.

Su Jingxing thought to himself.

After taking a glance from afar and hearing that the Martial Suppression Office was rushing over, he didn't stay any longer and turned to leave.

In the evening, a division of the Changyang Prefecture Army, along with its garrison, entered Qinghe City to maintain order.

Furthermore, on television, on the Internet, and in the newspapers, various channels were publicizing that the culprit of the self-combustion cases had been eliminated.

Now that the "culprit" was gone, strange self-combustions would naturally cease to exist.

At the beginning, everyone was skeptical. But soon, the Internet was the first to receive feedback. No one suddenly self-combusted today.

The day before, the dozens of cities in the four prefectures had seen dozens of people perishing in each city.

However, there was not a single case today.

"Alright, we don't have to worry about sudden self-combustion anymore. This self-combustion problem came quickly and was resolved quickly."

"I just want to know who the culprit is. F*ck, he's too powerful. He silently got people to fall for his trap, and the range was so wide. He's simply inhumane."

"Could it be an evil organization? Or an enemy nation? For example, the New Chu Nation secretly launched a terrorist attack against our Yu Nation?"

"That's possible. The New Chu Nation can't stand to see us doing well the most."

Chapter 260 A Conspiracy! (2)

"I don't think it's the New Chu Nation because they aren't that powerful!"

On the Internet, discussions and guesses were flying everywhere.

But overall, the atmosphere was very good. Now that the self-combustion crisis was resolved, everyone could resume their daily activities.

Su Jingxing had no time to care about this.

He had not figured out the problem with his Essence Soul. He was also testing out the utilization of Martial Art True Intent.

He was a little busy now.

However, that night, a loud bang resounded through the air above the Central District.

Accompanied by the sound, waves of energy fluctuations came from the sky above the district.

People are fighting!

And their realms aren't low. Fourth-grade?

Su Jingxing stopped his attempts with Martial Art True Intent and flew into the air in his courtyard. Standing in the air, he activated his Night Vision and Distant Vision at the same time to look at the source of the energy fluctuations.

In his field of vision, more than a hundred figures in martial art uniforms rushed into a large manor and kept killing.

As he released his perception, screams, angry roars, and cries sounded from the manor.

The owner of this manor… the Li Family!

The Li Family's manor?

A faction is attacking the Li Family?

Su Jingxing was shocked.

With a thought, he executed his secret ability and changed his face, height and aura. Then, he flew through the air.

Swish!

Halfway through, he took out a cloak and put it on.

When he was close to the Li Family's manor, he landed on the top of a building.

After landing, he sensed his surroundings and discovered that many people were watching from all sides of the manor.

The Iron Thread Sect, Jade Sword Sect, Sky Water Chamber of Commerce, Green Cloud Court, Zhou Family, Qi Family…

Almost all the major factions in Qinghe City were present, watching as a group of outsiders invaded the Li Family's manor and fought with the Li Family's martial artists.

As Su Jingxing extracted the cards, his gaze swept around and landed on a tall figure standing on the rooftop of a tall building in the Li Family estate.

Most of the people from the other factions were also looking at him.

Third-grade!

Even though the tall figure, who was at least in the third-grade, did not make a move, his invisible and powerful aura still attracted everyone's attention.

A third-grade martial artist led a team to invade the Li Family. Who has the Li Family offended?

Su Jingxing was puzzled.

"Everyone."

A deep voice resounded through the air.

The tall figure looked down at the ground and scanned the situation in the manor. His voice, augmented by true essence, rang in the ears of Su Jingxing and the others.

"Everyone, this is a grudge between the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce and the Li Family. I hope that everyone will not interfere recklessly to avoid unnecessary casualties."

An announcement.

And also a threat!

However, as soon as the words "Tianlong Chamber of Commerce" were spoken, everyone from the major factions in Qinghe City fell silent at once.

Regardless of whether the tall figure was telling the truth or not, they could only shut

up.

The Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, a major faction with top-ranked experts, was not one they could contend with.

Even in Qinghe City, there wasn't…

"Stop!"

A furious roar suddenly sounded.

Buzz!

The air surged.

An invisible pressure suddenly came from afar and descended above the Li Family manor, covering everyone in it.

Under this suppression, be it the people from the Li Family or the people from the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, they all stopped in their tracks, unable to make a move.

Roar!

A giant gray leopard leaped through the air and snarled at the tall figure.

"Gray Leopard King, Gu Zhanlin, are you sure you want to interfere in the affairs of Tianlong?" The tall figure spoke in a low voice. His thin and long face was expressionless and his cold gaze was fixed on Gu Zhanlin, who was flying swiftly towards him.

"That's right, I'm interfering!"

Gu Zhanlin's face darkened as he swept his gaze across the sky and the ground. He looked around and shouted, "This is Qinghe City, not the wilderness. I don't care if you are Tianlong or Tianshe[1, the Li Family or the Chen Family. If you want revenge, please go outside the city! In the city, no way! My words!"

Da da da!

On the ground, people from the Martial Suppression Office and the Prefecture Army emerged in large numbers and surrounded the Li Family's manor.

"Heh, Commander Gu, how impressive."

The tall figure chuckled. "What if I insist on resolving this here?"

"Si Wujiu!"

Gu Zhanlin's expression turned even colder. "I'm only negotiating with you out of respect. Don't be so shameless!"

"Don't think that just because Tianlong has connections with the capital that you can think nothing of others.

"Let me tell you, this is Qinghe City, Changyang Prefecture, not a place for you to be arrogant!"

"I'm arrogant?" Si Wujiu smiled. "No matter how arrogant I am, I can't compare to the Li Family. Commander Gu, aren't you curious about the grudge between Tianlong and the Li Family?"

"I'm not interested!"

Gu Zhanlin raised his hand and shouted coldly, "I'm not interested in learning about the grudge between you two."

"Don't talk about you and you."

Si Wujiu chuckled. "Just as you said, Commander Gu, respect is mutual. You're not interested, but I still have to tell you why Tianlong wants to destroy the Li Family."

"Why?" On the ground, the patriarch of the Li Family, Li Mingfang, shouted at the top of his voice, "Why do you want to annihilate us? When did the Li Family offend Tianlong?"

"Didn't you?"

Si Wujiu glanced at Li Mingfang and said indifferently, "The Li Family is much more unbridled than us. At the very least, we never dared to grab women off the streets and force ourselves onto them inside a car!"

Gu Zhanlin was speechless.

Li Mingfang was speechless.

Su Jingxing was speechless.

The people from the other factions were speechless.

When Si Wujiu said this, everyone was stunned, surprised, and in disbelief.

Su Jingxing had a strange look on his face.

He had seen what Si Wujiu was claiming with his own eyes and had even stepped in to stop him.

It's indeed true.

But is this really such a coincidence? The woman that the man had grabbed is from the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce?

Moreover, judging from the actions of the

Tianlong Chamber of Commerce of getting Si Wujiu to lead a team to take revenge, this woman is probably of high status.

But does a person of high status not have bodyguards by her side?

How could it be such a coincidence that she was alone and targeted?

A conspiracy!

Su Jingxing thought inwardly.

The others had the same guess.

When Li Mingfang snapped back to his senses, he growled, "Impossible! You're slandering the Li Family! He who wants to beat his dog will easily find a stick!" "Slander?"

Si Wujiu retracted his might and sneered. "Bring him here!"

"Yes."

Two martial artists walked out from the darkness of the rooftop. They were holding ropes in their hands.

The other ends of the ropes were tied to the hands and feet of a man with his mouth stuffed.

There was also a rope tied to each of his feet that he could pull on the ground.

At this moment, the man was pulled out and the cloth in his mouth was removed. Then, he was suddenly thrown out of the rooftop. His head was down, and his feet were up. Held by two ropes and hung in midair, he screamed in fear.

It really is him!

Su Jingxing saw from afar and raised his eyebrows.

The man hanging in midair was the arrogant fellow he had stopped previously. He had grabbed him out of the car and thrown him to the ground, breaking several bones.

Now that he looked again, his limbs were all broken.

"Who is he?"

Gu Zhanlin removed his suppression and asked with a frown.

"You'll have to ask the Patriarch Li." Si Wujiu glanced at Li Mingfang.

"I don't know." Li Mingfang looked up and growled. "I don't know him at all. He's not a member of the Li Family!"

"Are you sure?"

Si Wujiu's expression remained unchanged. "Patriarch Li, do you want to ask your future patriarch if he knows him?"

Hmm?

Li Mingfang was taken aback.

Gu Zhanlin's heart skipped a beat.

Su Jingxing quickly shifted his gaze to a handsome young man with a grim expression.

Li Junze!

The Li Family's most outstanding genius in a hundred years, a 21-year-old sixth-grade martial artist.

He was also Li Mingfang's son, the next patriarch that everyone in the Li Family thought highly of.

"You… know him?"

At this moment, Li Mingfang's expression was ugly. Enduring his anger, he asked Li Junze in a hoarse voice.

"He… he…"

"Who the hell is he?!" roared Li Mingfang. His eyes were bloodshot, and his aura was surging to the extreme.

Li Junze's body trembled. He lowered his head and gritted his teeth. "He is Xu'er's older brother."

"Xu'er? Liu Xu?" Li Mingfang was stunned.

"Doesn't the Patriarch Li know who Liu Xu is?" Si Wujiu chuckled. "Then let me tell you something. Liu Xu is the classmate of this future Patriarch of the Li Family from elementary school to university. The girlfriend he has been in love with for five years, the fiancée he had already pledged to marry without the permission of their parents!"

"How is it? Is this news surprising?"

"Is the elder brother of the future patriarch's wife a member of the Li Family?!"

Report chapter

Chapter 261 First Elder (1)

Strictly speaking, no!

Not to mention that Li Junze and his girlfriend had only pledged to marry in private. Her title as his fiancée had yet to be certified.

Even if they were already married and Liu Xu had become a young madam of the Li Family, her brother wouldn't be considered a part of the Li Family!

But some things were never that simple.

Especially for a martial arts family like the Li Family that had existed for hundreds of years.

The patriarch's brother-in-law, regardless of his surname, was a member of the Li Family in the eyes of others!

At the very least, he was protected by the Li Family's power, even though this layer of protection was very limited.

However, no matter how limited, it was still stronger than that of ordinary factions.

Therefore, when Si Wujiu said that the man hanging in midair was a member of the Li Family, Li Mingfang's heart turned cold.

Of course, this did not mean that he would simply accept this.

The same explanation, Liu Xu had not married Li Junze, even if she had, Li Mingfang wouldn't drag the Li Family down just because of an extra outsider.

His heart turned cold because he had sensed Si Wujiu's conspiracy!

ed

In the chaos, anger, and fear earlier, he didn't understand why Si Wujiu was attacking the Li Family.

Now that he had calmed down, he finally figured out Si Wujiu's motive.

This fellow, everything about grabbing women off the streets and the Li Family being too arrogant was a mere excuse!

An excuse to intervene in the Li Family, force the Li Family, and extort the Li Family!

Although Li Mingfang temporarily didn't understand what Si Wujiu was plotting,

he certainly had a motive!

Since the other party clearly had a motive, no matter what, this show would continue.

In other words, no matter how he argued or resisted, the Li Family had already been targeted by Si Wujiu!

They were targeted by a third-grade martial artist and a faction with huge influence.

This was why Li Mingfang was startled.

Of course, Li Mingfang would not resign himself to fate despite his shock and anger.

"Hahaha!"

He laughed out loud. "Chairman Si, is it? I'm afraid you have a problem with your comprehension ability. Liu Xu and my son aren't married yet, even if they are, Liu Xu's older brother will not be a member of the Li Family!"

"Whatever he does has nothing to do with the Li Family. On the contrary, if this fellow does things in the name of the Li Family, you don't have to do anything. I, Li Mingfang, will be the first to cripple him!" "So…" Si Wujiu glanced at the man on his feet and the corners of his lips curled up." It doesn't matter to you whether he dies or not?"

"Of course," Li Mingfang said righteously.

"What about the Li Family's future patriarch?" Si Wujiu looked at Li Junze. "Doesn't matter to you either?"

"Chairman Si, firstly, my son isn't the future patriarch of the Li Family yet. He hasn't received Li Family's jade token heirloom. Secondly, my son and Liu Xu have already broken up."

Li Mingfang said sternly before Li Junze could speak.

"So…"

"Therefore, the fate of Liu Xu and her brother have nothing to do with us!"

Li Mingfang said expressionlessly, "Chairman Si, you can do whatever you want with him. Also, please deal with him outside. This is the Li Family's manor, not a street market or a crematorium!" "Good!"

A smile appeared on Si Wujiu's face. "In that case, I have disrupted you. My previous offense was purely due to a misunderstanding. I hope you can forgive me."

"…It's fine." Li Mingfang raised his hand. "Chairman Si's commotion happened to help me test the security system of the manor. I can't wait to thank President Si."

"Hahaha, that's my honor."

Si Wujiu laughed loudly and soared into the air. "Everyone, retreat!"

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The invading figures that were scattered in every corner of the manor immediately retreated and quickly left the Li Family's manor when they heard the order.

The man who was hanging from his legs was also taken away. The moment they left the Li Family's manor, he was split into two by a blade.

Starting from the middle of his thigh, he split into two halves.

Su Jingxing extracted a card and watched silently.

The others did the same.

The major factions that had rushed over to take a look remained silent.

Although the development of this show was somewhat dramatic towards this end, and not even anti-climatic, no one was a fool. They could all tell that Si Wujiu was casting a long line for a big fish.

He had targeted the big fish that was the Li Family!

The logic was simple. Si Wujiu was a third-grade martial artist. The hundred odd people he had brought with him were all in the fifth-grade or above. Among them, there were more than 10 fourth-grade martial artists.

If he really wanted to take revenge and destroy the Li Family, he wouldn't have caused such a big commotion! He totally could have killed everyone before the Li Family could react.

However, Si Wujiu chose to blow things up and attract the attention of all the major factions in the city. Even Gu Zhanlin was brought here. His goal was definitely not simple! As for what exactly Si Wujiu was plotting, n one knew what they were plotting apart from him.

Even the Li Family. They were terrified and furious at this moment, but they didn't understand what Si Wujiu wanted from them.

Does the Li Family have any secret treasures? A treasure that even a third-grade expert like Si Wujiu coveted.

At this thought, many people's expressions changed. They looked at the Li Family members with a strange look.

Even Su Jingxing was curious.

After Si Wujiu left with his men, Gu Zhanlin opened his mouth but didn't say anything in the end. He also left with his men.

Most of the people from the other factions had left, and a small portion of them continued to lurk around the Li Family estate.

When Su Jingxing saw this, he thought for a moment and returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain. Then, he manifested his Essence Soul and sent it to the Li Family estate in its illusory state. It sneaked into the manor silently and waited patiently.

The others were curious about what treasures the Li Family had.

Chapter 262 First Elder (2)

Even the Li Family could not avoid this.

Li Mingfang and the other upper echelons of the Li Family would probably gather to discuss this matter.

In the Essence Soul's illusory state, it was invisible to the naked eye.

Su Jingxing discovered this by accident.

When the Essence Soul turned incorporeal, it could not be seen with the naked eye. Ordinary perception abilities could not sense it either.

Even though the Blood Doppelganger's hearing was better than the main body's, there was one thing that could not be fixed.

That was soundproofing.

Once soundproofed and sound waves could not be transmitted, the secret ability would lose its effect.

The Essence Soul was different. It was even more magical than Blood Doppelganger which was an energy body. As long as Su Jingxing wanted to, he could even listen to the entire city.

Of course, listening to the entire city consumed a lot of soul power, and it couldn't be sustained for long

There was no need for that. Neither would Su Jingxing do that.

It wouldn't be a problem to narrow it down to a certain range. Even through a few layers of steel plates, he could still hear well.

Although the Li Family's manor occupied a large area, it was still within the range of the Essence Soul's listening.

Whether it was above ground or underground, as long as they spoke, Su Jingxing could hear the contents of the discussion between Li Mingfang and the Li Family's higher-ups.

The development of the situation did not disappoint him.

About two hours later, in a basement in the northwest corner of the manor.

The Essence Soul listened to the discussion between Li Mingfang, Li Lilou, and the others.

Su Jingxing controlled the Essence Soul and decisively moved closer to reduce the consumption of his soul power.

"What's going on? Who leaked our information out there?"

In the sealed off, secluded underground space, Li Lilou gritted his teeth and shouted with a dark expression.

"I also want to know who exactly leaked our secret!" said an old man with white hair, his eyes spitting fire. His name was Li Lichuan. In terms of age, he was the second oldest in the Li Family's older generation. He was experienced and had a high status.

Most of the time, Li Mingfang, the Patriarch had to listen to his suggestions.

"Mingfang, did you receive any news? When did the Li Family offend the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce?" asked Li Lichuan angrily.

"It might not necessarily be the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce," said a middle-aged man softly. "What do you mean?" Li Lichuan turned his head and glared at him.

y.

"I mean that Si Wujiu's deliberate attack on us this time might be his own business, not that of the entire Tianlong Chamber of Commerce," said the middle-aged man indifferently. "According to what I know, the chairmans of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce aren't close. Most of the time, they do their own things. Only when they encounter major matters that relate to all of them or something that every one of them wants will they join forces to deal with others."

"In other words, targeting us this time is Si Wujiu's individual scheme?" Li Lilou pondered.

"It's just a guess." The middle-aged man nodded and said, "No one knows what the truth is. But no matter what, we've been targeted. Third-grade martial artists, more than 10 in the fourth-grade, and more than a hundred in the fifth-grade. Even if they weren't sent by all the chairmans of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, we wouldn't be able to resist this power."

"That d*mn Si Wujiu!" cursed Li Lichuan.

"Whether he's d*mning or not, let's put that aside for now. I'm even more curious about why he has his eyes on us. With Si Wujiu's strength and identity, what does the Li Family have that he would want?"

Confusion was written all over Li Lilou's face. Puzzled, he asked, "Even though the things we have in our collection are pretty, they shouldn't have attracted Si Wujiu to fight us, right?"

"Shameful to say, but if he really had his eyes on something, he could have just asked us for it. We wouldn't have dared to not give it to him. Was there a need to make such a big commotion?

"First, he deliberately baited Liu Xu's id*ot brother. Then, he led his men to our door and then left with a big laugh. Anyone would know that there is something wrong with him!

"What is his motive for doing this?"

There was a moment of silence.

In the secret chamber, everyone fell into deep thought, not understanding Si Wujiu's motives.

"Let's ask the First Elder."

Suddenly, Li Mingfang said in a low voice, "Perhaps, the First Elder would know some reasons."

"Contact the First Elder at this time?" The middle-aged man continued. "The First Elder has been in seclusion for almost ten years. Will we be able to contact him now?"

"Sure," said Li Mingfang in a low voice. "I've left an emergency means of contact. We can even video call."

Uh…

The others revealed strange expressions when they heard this.

In ancient times, who would be able to video chat with others while in seclusion?

"Cough cough!"

Li Lichuan coughed lightly. "Then let's contact big brother. Si Wujiu most likely also wants us to contact him. That's why he put up this show tonight." "That's possible."

"That's right, that's right. Si Wujiu definitely knows that the First Elder isn't in Qinghe City. If he directly destroys us, we won't even be able to send information out. When the First Elder returns, we would have long become a pile of ashes."

"This fellow Si Wujiu, his target is the First Elder!"

"D*mned bastard. He injured so many of our men and caused such a big commotion. And it was all just to lure out the First Elder."

"Perhaps he has other intentions! It's not just to lure out the First Elder! The Mausoleum of Prince Qin is not the only secret in Qinghe City!"

The group discussed animatedly, and the atmosphere became lively. "Hold on, everyone. I'll contact the First Elder immediately," said Li Mingfang indifferently. He stood up, walked to a corner, pressed the button, and opened a small secret chamber.

The chamber door opened and Li Mingfang walked in. He fiddled with some machines.

In the room outside, the television on the wall immediately switched on, revealing an image.

It was a wall. On the wall were the patterns of the Li Family's Seven Calamities Wheel Mantra.

After a while, the wall on the screen suddenly twisted and opened to both sides, revealing a secret chamber.

The secret chamber was dark at first. A ball of light lit up and slowly illuminated the room.

Li Mingfang and the others could only see the profile of the white-haired old man sitting cross-legged on the ground. He was motionless. Even through the screen, they could feel his aura lingering and charging.

"First Elder."

"First Elder!"

"Big brother!"

When the people in the room saw the old man, they immediately greeted him.

Silence came from the television screen. There was no sound at all.

If Li Mingfang did not know that all the audio had been switched on, he would have thought that the television was broken.

The group waited for a while before sound came through the speakers.

"What's the matter?"

A deep, resonant and slightly masculine voice reverberated through the room.

"It's like this, First Elder."

As the patriarch, Li Mingfang replied on behalf of everyone respectfully, "We've been targeted. By a person named Si Wujiu. He's the president of the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce, a third-grade martial artist. Tonight…"

He quickly recounted the events of the night.

Finally, Li Mingfang said, "No matter what, we want to figure out what Si Wujiu's motives are"

"You want to know what mysterious treasure the Li Family has, right?"

The First Elder's calm voice sounded.

The faces of the upper echelons of the Li Family in the room burned a little when they heard this.

"That's right." Li Mingfang admitted frankly. "I want to know if the Li Family really has a treasure that can interest even top-ranked experts?"

"Of course." The First Elder replied calmly, "I believe you all know who the Li Family's first ancestor was."

"Of course we do. Our lineage began to flourish starting with ancestor Li Nongtang," replied Li Mingfang. "Ancestor Li Nongtang became the Chancellor while in the seventh-grade. He is the pride and idol of all the people in the Li Family!

"Because of a great merit, Emperor Yu bestowed the Seven Calamities Wheel Mantra to ancestor Li Nongtang. It was thanks to the Seven Calamities Wheel Mantra that our Li Family managed to develop to where we are today. "That's right," said the First Elder calmly. "This is something that everyone knows. However, outsiders don't know; other than Emperor Yu and ancestor Li Nongtang; no one else knows that back then, Emperor Yu also bestowed something other than the Seven Calamities Wheel Mantra!"

"What is it?" Li Mingfang was stunned.

The others were also in disbelief.

"R-really?"

"There's something else?"

"What treasure is it? An ancient spirit weapon?" "Tss! How come I've never heard of such a secret?"

11

In the secret chamber, the crowd was in an uproar.

As the upper echelons of Li Family and the various decision makers, they actually never knew that the Li Family really had a treasure that martial artists in the top ranks would covet!

"There's no need for you all to know what it is."

The white-haired old man's indifferent voice sounded. The upper echelons of the Li Family who were in an uproar immediately shut up and returned to silence. Among this group of people, some were indignant, some stunned, and some furious, but no one dared to question him.

Not only was the Li Family's First Elder the oldest and most experienced, he was also the most powerful.

Although he had never been the patriarch, the previous patriarch had to consult him about major matters involving the Li Family before making the final decision. The First Elder was the true soul of the Li Family. He knew all the secrets of the family.

If the patriarch had passed on, a new one could take over.

But if the First Elder were to suddenly die or disappear, the Li Family would definitely fall into turmoil.

Now, the white-haired old man definitely had his reasons for not telling them what the treasure was.

Li Mingfang had to obey as well. "I've noted Si Wujiu's motive. Ignore him." The white-haired old man's voice sounded again. "As long as I'm not dead, he won't do anything to you. This invasion is just a probe."

"Yes, First Elder." Li Mingfang nodded.

The image on the screen quickly turned black.

A hush fell over the chamber.

After a while, Li Lichuan exhaled and said, "Alright, since big brother said it's nothing, let's disperse." "Um, why do I feel like First Elder seems to know Si Wujiu?" A voice suddenly sounded.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The others immediately turned to look at him.

"Don't… don't look at me like that. Don't you guys think so?"

The person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a beard. He shrank his neck and cheered himself on. "I didn't think so before, but now that I think about it carefully, Si Wujiu led people to attack us. Putting aside the fact that the strongest Si Wujiu didn't personally take part in the battle, even those fourth and fifth-grade martial artists were more inclined to severely injure us than to kill us!"

Silence.

Everyone fell silent again, including Li Mingfang That's right. Now that they had calmed down, they thought back carefully.

There were indeed many suspicious points. One of them was the surprise attack at night. It was not intense, and there were few casualties. If Si Wujiu was really determined to destroy the Li Family, why would he hold back?

The First Elder's reaction was also very strange.

It seemed like he had long expected Si Wujiu to come up with such a show?

"Enough."

In the silence, Li Mingfang broke the silence and said, "Regardless of whether the First Elder and Si Wujiu are acquainted or not, this matter ends here. Of course, the necessary precautions must also be taken. Pass down the order, before Si Wujiu leaves Qinghe City, no one is allowed to leave the manor!" "Yes!"

On the surface.

Su Jingxing controlled his Essence Soul to hide in a corner. He was deep in thought.

The Li Family's First Elder was a very mysterious figure.

If not for the fact that the Essence Soul had come to listen in on the situation tonight out of curiosity, Su Jingxing wouldn't have known that the Li Family had such a First Elder.

In seclusion for 10 years?

In these 10 years, he had never appeared before anyone?

But his tone sounded strange.

The upper echelons of the Li Family suspected that he and Si Wujiu knew each other. It was guess, instead, it was highly likely.

"Interesting." As he pondered, Su Jingxing couldn't help but laugh inwardly.

Si Wujiu had brought a group of people to put on an act, and the Li Family's First Elder was also being mysterious. These two people might not only be acquainted, they might even be allies.

Li Mingfang and the others suspected that Si Wujiu's motive was the Li Family's treasure.

The mysterious item that Emperor Yu had bestowed to Li Nongtang.

But Su Jingxing's intuition told him that it wasn't that simple.

Perhaps Si Wujiu was doing this for the treasure, or perhaps he was putting on a show for certain people!

And the Li Family's First Elder was only one of these people.

Alright, the more I think about this, the more complicated it's becoming.

Su Jingxing shook his head and controlled the Essence Soul to leave.

No matter what Si Wujiu's motive was, as long as it didn't cause panic or implicate the common people, it had nothing to do with Su Jingxing

With this in mind, the Essence Soul left the Li Family estate and returned to his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Speaking of which,

Si Wujiu led his men to attack the Li Family. The timing was really tight.

It had only been a short after Su Jingxing solved the self-combustion issue, and he had already launched a scheme against the Li Family.

This fellow had clearly planned everything before the self-combustion cases surfaced.

The self-combustion issue had only delayed him for a few days.

"Tianlong Chamber of Commerce… Si Wujiu…"

After muttering for a while, Su Jingxing stopped focusing on it.

The next day, he went to work as usual and patrolled the crematorium.

Other places could close for a few days.

Not at the crematorium.

Once the chaos was under control, it immediately resumed operating.

Su Jingxing had an easy job. He patrolled a few times before returning to his office.

The cards were extracted automatically. When he was free, he took them out and read them one by one.

Essence Energy Card, Internal Force Card, Skill Card, Strength Enhancement Card…

Most of the cards were common Function Cards.

Su Jingxing didn't hold much hope. When he extracted special cards, he collected what he needed.

He continued to consume Strength Pills to strengthen his transcendent body.

The day quickly ended.

At night, Su Jingxing controlled his Martial Art True Intent to manifest and attempt all sorts of usage according to the Martial Sage's Manuscript.

In the middle of the night, he suddenly sensed a spying gaze coming from afar!

Swish!

The Essence Soul directly manifested and grabbed this invisible spying will.

Chapter 264 Greetings, Young General! (2)

"Heavenly secret art?"

A cold glint flashed across Su Jingxing's eyes.

Someone was using a heavenly secret art to spy on him!

Divining his existence, his location, or deducing his connection with a certain matter.

No matter who this person was, now that he was discovered, he could forget about escaping.

Swish!

The Essence Soul grabbed his spying will and floated into the air, flying into the distance at lightning speed.

The spying will was like a rope that connected to the other end.

Through the Essence Soul, Su Jingxing held onto this end of the rope. As long as he followed the rope, he would be able to find the other party. The Essence Soul moved faster than any plane.

It shuttled straight through and within a few seconds, found the target.

In Farm Town on the periphery of the Green Cloud Mountain Range.

In a building at the edge of the town.

"Pu!"

In the room, a middle-aged man with half white hair who looked to be in his forties or fifties spurted blood and fell to the ground.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" asked Kang Shaoyu nervously as he ran over and helped the middle-aged man up.

"He… he discovered me." The middle-aged man's face was pale. He exhaled weakly and said, "Not… not only did he discover me, he also… he also followed the heavenly secret guide and learned… learned about this place!"

"What?"

Kang Shaoyu was shocked. "We've been discovered here? Let's leave quickly!"

"Leave my a*s."

Wan Sansi strode over and scolded irritably, "Are you out of your mind? We were searching for the Young General to find him. Since the Young General has discovered us, wouldn't that be perfect? Wouldn't he automatically come knocking on our door?"

"Eh…" Kang Shaoyu was stunned. After a while, he patted his head. "That's right. Why didn't I think of that? We are here to find the Young General in the first place!"

"That's because you're out of your mind," commented a female voice mercilessly.

"Heh, I'm not going to argue with you." Kang Shaoyu grinned. "When the Young General arrives, I'll complain to him. I'll say that it was your idea to get Old Wu to divine him using a heavenly secret art!"

"Hmm?" A pretty woman's gaze turned cold when she heard this. She said coldly, "Kang Shaoyu, do you have the guts to repeat what you just said?"

"Sure. Do you think I'll be scared… F*ck, you d*mn woman, you're really getting physical?"

Kang Shaoyu jumped up and ran, shouting loudly.

Wan Sansi, Xiao Yuanfang, and the others were speechless.

After a while, Xiao Yuanfang said worriedly, "Um, will Young General be angry that we're divining him like this?"

"If it were me, I would definitely be angry," Zhou Ran said coldly. "But there's nothing we can do about it," said a middle-aged man in his forties with a sigh. "Ever since the last time we met, the Young General has disappeared without a trace. There's no news of his whereabouts. If we want to find him, we can only divine using heavenly secret arts. Otherwise, we have absolutely no idea of his whereabouts." "Yes," said Wan Sansi in a low voice. "It's expected that Young General will be angry, but we have no choice but to do so. It won't be too late to ask for forgiveness when we find him."

"Sigh, that's the only way." Xiao Yuanfang sighed.

Outside the window.

When Su Jingxing heard Wan Sansi and the others' conversation through the Essence Soul, his true body's expression changed drastically.

Young General? What did Wan Sansi and the others call him? Young General?

This group of people had actually used the heavenly secret art because they wanted to find him, and they addressed him as Young General. "Do they want to continue their origin from hundreds of years ago and stay by side? "Simply because I inherited the Martial Art True Intent, the Sishui Horned Dragon?

"After inheriting Martial Art True Intent, I am the successor of the Rising Dragon Saber King, Liu Chenglong?"

Otherwise, there was no way to explain it.

Wan Sansi, Zhou Leng, Xiao Yuanfang, and the others were not ordinary people.

They were second-grade experts, followed by third-grade and a bunch of fourth-grade experts.

This was a powerful force that even the Tianlong Chamber of Commerce dared not easily offend.

Now, they were eagerly looking for Su Jingxing, wanting to follow him.

Su Jingxing wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't heard it with his own ears.

This was too unbelievable!

The loyalty of the Flying Lion army was too terrifying

After more than 400 years, they still remembered Liu Chenglong. Su Jingxing had merely inherited the the Sishui Horned Dragon and they planned to become his followers.

What were they after?

I don't get it!

I really don't understand what these people are thinking.

This matter is not easy to resolve either.

It wasn't that Su Jingxing was being dramatic. But this involved the relationship between the Flying Lion army and Liu Chenglong.

Especially Liu Chenglong. This fellow had many enemies when he was alive.

One of them, the Golden Chen Family still remembered him.

If Su Jingxing took in the Flying Lion army, it would be equivalent to standing against the Golden Chen Family.

This was not what Su Jingxing wanted. The Golden Chen Family was too powerful.

The Flying Lion army was no match for them. Putting everything else aside, the Golden Chen Family definitely had first-grade experts!

On the other hand, although the Flying Lion army had three second-grade and five third-grade martial artists, it was not enough to deal with the Chen Family.

Su Jingxing had to consider carefully offending the Chen Family for the Flying Lion army.

Was it worth it?

Of course, before that, he still had to meet Wan Sansi and the others.

From their conversation, since Su Jingxing had discovered their location, if he didn't come knocking on their door, they might divine him again. Unless Su Jingxing could completely shield and isolate himself from the world.

Otherwise, no matter where he was, he would be discovered.

The Flying Lion army wasn't trying to harm him so when Su Jingxing sensed and grabbed the spying will, he couldn't come here and kill them either.

He didn't want to be disturbed every time, so he had to have a discussion with them.

With this in mind.

Su Jingxing's body transformed into "Li Jing" and he rose into the air in his small courtyard at the foot of the mountain.

Wrapping his body with his Martial Art True Intent, he controlled worldly energy and flew through the air against the night wind.

Soon.

Su Jingxing's main body had arrived at the Farm Town, and his aura was slightly revealed. Swish! Swish! Swish!

Wan Sansi, Zhou Leng, Xiao Yuanfang, Kang Shaoyu, and the others sensed it and immediately came out of the house to the empty space outside. The moment they saw Su Jingxing, they all half-knelt on the ground and shouted,

"Greetings, Young General!"

Su Jingxing moved silently, avoiding the direction where they were kneeling and bowing towards.

"I'm not your Young General."

His voice that had been altered sounded in the air. "I'm here because I want to ask, what do you want from me?"

"Reporting to Young General, we divined Young General because we wanted to find you."

Wan Sansi answered stiffly.

"Um, Young General, please punish us." Kang Shaoyu lowered his head and said, "We secretly divined you without informing you. We are guilty. Please…"

"I told you, I'm not your Young General!"

Su Jingxing interrupted and shouted, "Don't mention the Young General. The Flying Lion army doesn't have to kneel to anyone anymore. The times have changed. The Rising Dragon Saber King has already passed away for more than 400 years. You don't have to be loyal to him anymore. Besides, I was just lucky to have inherited the Sishui Horned Dragon. I'm not the successor of the Rising Dragon Saber King at all. How could I be your Young General?"

"We know."

Wan Sansi became serious again. "The Saber King has been dead for too long. Now that we have come to a new era, we indeed have nothing to do with him anymore. However, in this new era, we still need to survive. We need motivation and goals. And you are our chosen

goal."

"What do you mean?" asked Su Jingxing, frowning "May I ask if you inherited the Saber King's Martial Art True Intent because you made a deal with him? Did you swear on your soul that you will protect the Yu Nation for a hundred years?" asked Xiao Yuanfang quickly.

Su Jingxing's eyes flashed.

They know!

These people actually knew about the deal between him and Liu Chenglong's remnant soul.

Even though the content of the deal was slightly different,

only ten years instead of 100 years, the contents of this oath of protection were indeed true. At this thought, Su Jingxing replied, "Yes. So what?"

"Our goal is to let the Yu Nation prosper for a long time."

When Wan Sansi heard this, he continued excitedly, "Since you have inherited the Sishui Horned Dragon and have sworn to protect the Yu Nation for a hundred years, you fit our standards of a leader!"

Chapter 265 The Bloodseeker Beast That Escaped (1)

So patriotic?

After more than 400 years, they were still so loyal to their nation.

It had to be known that when the Flying Lion army went into hibernation, the Yu Nation had just begun its nation-building

Wan Sansi and the others did not enjoy the treatment of being loyal subjects. Of course, it wasn't that they weren't qualified to enjoy it, but that they had rejected it and chose to sleep.

Now that they've recovered, they're continuing to pursue the goal from hundreds of years ago?

Su Jingxing pondered.

The Sishui Horned Dragon was merely a bridge.

Perhaps Wan Sansi and the others were not pursuing Su Jingxing, but the Sishui Horned Dragon.

At this thought, Su Jingxing said calmly, "No need."

"The deal I made with the Rising Dragon Saber King is between me and him. It has nothing to do with you all. If you want to protect the Yu Nation, you don't have to follow me. It's better to work directly for the cabinet. Otherwise, joining the Changyang Prefecture Army wouldn't be a bad idea either."

"We've all considered your suggestions." Xiao Yuanfang sighed. "The problem is that we don't trust the interest group in the imperial court. Working for them is said to be for the common people, but we don't even know when we become tools for them.

"It's the same for joining the Changyang Prefecture Army. The Changyang Prefecture Army is not an independent army. It still belongs to the military and is under the command of the Supreme Marshal, impeded by the cabinet. Once the order is given, we have to obey it even if we don't want to.

"Back then, we chose to go into a deep sleep because we didn't want to get involved in too many other matters. All we wanted was to live our best life."

To put it bluntly, they didn't want to be restrained!

Even if they followed Su Jingxing, they would still have to follow his orders.

But what was Su Jingxing's strength?

And what were the capabilities of the Changyang Prefecture Army and the cabinet? Su Jingxing, a third-grade martial artist, could not completely control them. When that time came, if they really wanted to find something to do, it would most likely be a discussion between them.

Following Su Jingxing was more to get close to the Sishui Horned Dragon.

They were extraordinarily loyal to Liu Chenglong.

It was unknown what Liu Chenglong had done back then that made Wan Sansi and the others willing to remain loyal even after so many years.

Saved their lives?

Nurtured them?

No matter what kind of favor it was, Wan Sansi and the others wanted to become Su Jingxing's followers mainly to get in touch with the Sishui Horned Dragon.

Previously, he couldn't confirm it, but now, Su Jingxing was certain.

With this in mind, all the more Su Jingxing would not agree.

"I understand what you mean."

Su Jingxing said coolly, "According to what you seek, the best way is to make your own decisions and not follow others. Of course, we can cooperate. If there's a need, we can make a deal."

"This…"

Wan Sansi, Xiao Yuanfang, and the others looked at one another.

They were stunned and taken aback by Su Jingxing's proposal.

Wouldn't he be tempted to take in the Flying Lion army?

Where were they not welcomed?

But Su Jingxing actually rejected them.

He didn't want these benefits that came knocking on his door.

Were they too impatient?

Or…

"Yes, that's for the best." In the silence, Su Jingxing continued, emphasizing his words. "You guys are a team to begin with. The Flying Lion army in the past, now, it's best to change your name. For example, Flying Fish? How does the Flying Fish organization sound?"

Su Jingxing was "interested" and suggested, "Flying Fish, implying your hopes for the Yu Nation to take off and prosper. As for the division of positions in the organization, you can decide for yourselves.

ns

"In the future, if I have any needs, I can make deals with Flying Fish. For example, in terms of money, Internet technology support, and so on.

"Well…" Xiao Yuanfang opened his mouth, but closed it in the end.

"Um, let's not talk about anything else for now," said Kang Shaoyu. "I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Kang Shaoyu, and this is Kang Shaoting and Kang Shaoxiang. They're both my elder brothers. This beauty is Duan Siyi, Big Sister Duan. Lastly, this is Ma Feng, Old Ma."

"Your… your surname is Li, right?"

"Yes," said Su Jingxing coolly. "I'm Li Jing."

"Brother Li then!"

Kang Shaoyu gave him a thumbs up. "We will seriously consider Brother Li's suggestion. If possible, we can change our name to Flying Fish. But can you give us your contact details? You already said that even though we can't be companions, we can still be cooperating partners."

"Of course." Su Jingxing nodded and gave his anonymous number.

Then, he bade farewell and said, "That's all for now. If you need anything, you can contact

me."

"Hold on." Wan Sansi stopped him. "There's something I would like to ask. Did the General say anything during your transaction with him?"

"…Other than the contents of the deal, nothing else," replied Su Jingxing.

"Is that so?" murmured Wan Sansi.

"If there's nothing else, I'll get going." Su Jingxing had no intention of stopping. He turned around and prepared to leave.

Just then, Xiao Yuanfang received a call. He picked up. After listening for a while, he exclaimed, "Impossible! How is it possible that there are still living Bloodseeker Beasts around?"

Da!

Su Jingxing stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Xiao Yuanfang.

Wan Sansi, Kang Shaoyu, Zhou Leng, and the others also looked at him.

Xiao Yuanfang's expression kept changing, and his eyes flickered. "Alright, I understand. We'll set off immediately."

With that, he hung up the call and quickly said to everyone, "It's a call from the Changyang Prefecture Army. They got a photo of a Bloodseeker Beast when doing aerial photography over the Green Cloud Mountain. That Bloodseeker Beast was killing a ferocious tiger and drinking its blood!" "T-this can't be a mistake, can it?" Kang Shaoyu waved his hand and said in surprise, "The Bloodseeker Beasts are clearly dead. During the encirclement, although some managed to escape, they were eventually caught and killed. The Bloodseeker Essence Energy that leaked out was stored in special containers and sealed. Were the seals or the containers broken? Did someone deliberately do this?"

Chapter 266 The Bloodseeker Beast That Escaped! (2)

"No." Xiao Yuanfang shook his head. "Nothing happened to the sealed containers. They are still at the secret location."

"Didn't you guys put them back in the valley and seal them together?" Su Jingxing interrupted at this point.

At the beginning, only a few Bloodseeker Beasts escaped from the underground palace.

Even if they turned into Bloodseeker Essence Energy, and were absorbed by the other Bloodseeker Beasts, it wouldn't be enough to turn them into Beast Kings.

"No." Xiao Yuanfang shook his head. "General Zhao said that the Blood Elemental Essence Energy of a few Blood Elemental Essence Energy can be controlled. There aren't many people who know about the existence of the Blood Elemental Essence Energy too. As long as we don't say anything, no one will know that the Blood Elemental Essence Energy still remains in this world."

"Heh." Su Jingxing chuckled and said nothing

more.

It seems like Zhao Fengxian is scheming too.

The Bloodseeker Essence Energy of a few Bloodseeker Beasts could indeed be controlled and easily dispersed.

However, even if there was only one of them, there would be endless repercussions.

Su Jingxing even suspected that Zhao Fengxian had been invaded and brainwashed by the Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

He actually left behind Bloodseeker Essence Energy and sealed it away.

Is the problem here about the seal?

"Ahem!"

Xiao Yuanfang was also a little embarrassed. "It has already happened. The most important thing now is to find this Bloodseeker Beast first! The Changyang Prefecture Army hopes that we can lend a helping hand. We will immediately enter the mountain to search for the beast. At the very least, we must stop it from leaving Green Cloud Mountain!"

"Of course we have to help." Wan Sansi nodded. "Pass down the order. Everyone except those who are injured, gather immediately and head to Green Cloud Mountain."

"Yes," the burly man named Ma Feng replied in a deep voice.

With that, he turned around to deliver the order.

Previously, the Flying Lion army had been ambushed by Ghost Ride. Although no one died, many of them were injured.

Those who could be mobilized naturally excluded the injured.

"I'll come too." Seeing this, Su Jingxing shouted, "Getting rid of the Blood Demons. Count me in."

"Alright, let's go together!"

Kang Shaoyu's eyes lit up with joy.

Su Jingxing was a third-grade martial artist, after all. If he could join them, the chances of finding the Bloodseeker Beast would increase.

After all, the Green Cloud Mountain Range was so big. It would take an unknown amount of time with them and the Changyang Prefecture Army.

Of course, with the help of modern equipment, drones and helicopters had been flying in the sky. As long as the Bloodseeker Beast showed up, it would not be able to escape.

This time, it was discovered because it was unintentionally captured on an aerial shot.

As for the aerial photography over the Green Cloud Mountain Range, it was the Changyang Prefecture Army's follow-up, just in case they missed anything or something unexpected had happened.

It turned out that they really got a shot of a Bloodseeker Beast.

The Changyang Prefecture Army had asked Xiao Yuanfang to bring men to help. The location in this photo was also sent over.

Su Jingxing moved with them. Their first destination was this location.

With the discovery point as the center, they searched inch-by-inch for the Bloodseeker Beast.

Even if it was night, they had to get there first.

At dawn, everyone entered the mountain and spread out to search for the Bloodseeker Beast.

Su Jingxing transformed into "Li Jing" and flew in the air.

The Blood Doppelganger curled up into a ball and shuttled through the woods.

If Su Jingxing were to discover this Bloodseeker Beast that had escaped the net first, his Blood Doppelganger would directly devour it.

The Bloodseeker Beast's Bloodseeker Essence Energy and the card extracted when it was killed were all good stuff.

Therefore, Su Jingxing's main body and doppelganger had both come to Green Cloud Mountain.

There were 70 to 80 members from the Flying Lion army and a few hundred troops from the Changyang Prefecture Army. Together with the drones and helicopters flying in the sky, the large team launched a search.

The usual silence of the Green Cloud Mountain Range was broken at this moment.

As Su Jingxing searched, he couldn't help but think of the big white goose and the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf. If the two of them were discovered, another battle would inevitably ensue.

All the major factions wanted to capture and tame Mutated Beasts.

If one was too savage and unyielding, they would be killed.

Although the big white goose and the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf listened to Su Jingxing and did not harm humans,

that was under the circumstances of taking the initiative. If the Prefecture Army made the first move, the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf would naturally counterattack.

This counterattack would result in casualties.

If there were casualties, things would get troublesome.

At this thought, Su Jingxing headed straight for the big white goose's valley.

The Blood Doppelganger headed for the location of worldly energy where the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was.

Su Jingxing had been to the latter once, and the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf's lair was right there.

The main body and doppelganger moved at their fastest speeds.

The big white goose's valley was the closest. After Su Jingxing arrived, he looked down at the valley from high above and checked the situation.

Fortunately.

Nothing unusual happened in the valley. It was as beautiful and peaceful as ever.

The big white goose did not appear. He didn't know where it had gone either.

Su Jingxing cruised around and didn't spot any problems. He quickly turned around and flew towards the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf's territory.

The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf lived in a col.

The entrance was filled with sharp vines and ancient trees that towered into the sky. The wide branches and leaves covered most of the area. Looking down from the sky, one could not see most of the interior.

After the Blood Doppelganger arrived, it descended from the sky and entered the col. Before it could patrol the area, it noticed something amiss.

What a coincidence.

In a corner of the col, under a dozen tall ancient trees, a blood-colored massive beast was confronting a giant wolf with wings.

The latter was none other than the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf.

And the one confronting it was the Bloodseeker Beast!

This Bloodseeker Beast had actually escaped from the valley and hid here until now.

Good fellow. Su Jingxing didn't know how much blood energy it had absorbed. Its entire body was only half a step away from that of a Beast King

Now that it was confronting the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf, it was obvious that it had its eyes on the wolf's physical body.

The flesh and blood of Mutated Beasts were several times stronger than that of ordinary beasts.

If the Bloodseeker Beast really killed the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf and absorbed its blood energy, it would definitely advance to a Beast

King.

For this reason, Su Jingxing had arrived just in time!

Roar!

With a roar, the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf attacked first.

Swoosh!

The Bloodseeker Beast was even faster and pounced from the side.

Swish!

Plkch! Plkch! Plkch!

Blood splattered as a muffled groan sounded.

The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf was defeated in the first round. It was suppressed and attacked by the Bloodseeker Beast, and its body was soon covered in wounds.

Strands of wolf blood flowed out from the wounds. Before they even dripped onto the ground, they were absorbed by the Bloodseeker Beast from a distance, making it even stronger.

Buzz

A surge in the air scattered the wolf blood and destroyed the Bloodseeker Beast's plan.

The Blood Doppelganger transformed back into human form. As soon as its tall body appeared, it locked onto the Bloodseeker Beast. With pure brute force, it landed a punch that caught the Bloodseeker Beast off guard. Its entire body flew out from the side and crashed into the ground, rolling three times.

Whoosh!

Moving, the Blood Doppelganger dashed forward at high speed and arrived beside the Bloodseeker Beast. Before the beast could stand up, it continued to punch. Each punch was more ferocious than the last, yet they did not land on the same spot. It would not kill the Bloodseeker Beast.

It only crippled it.

However, the Bloodseeker Beast's resistance was shocking.

Su Jingxing controlled his Blood Doppelganger and enjoyed the fight.

Bang!

With a dull thud, the Bloodseeker Beast exploded without warning.

It turned into a ball of Bloodseeker Essence Energy that dispersed and floated in the air.

If it were anyone else, they would have confirmed that the Bloodseeker Beast was dead. To revive it, a large amount of blood energy would be required.

However, Su Jingxing's soul power was powerful, and his perception locked onto these masses of Bloodseeker Essence Energy.

He realized that they were moving consciously!

They spread out to the sides, and the direction of the flow was clearly presented. This scene undoubtedly told Su Jingxing that the beast wanted to escape!

Now that it has turned into Bloodseeker Essence Energy, it still wants to escape! And is able to do so!

When did the Bloodseeker Essence Energy become so powerful?

Or is this Bloodseeker Beast special?

It already possessed the ability to leave its body and live on its consciousness?

If this is true, is it still a Bloodseeker Beast?

Is this kind of Bloodseeker Beast something that ordinary people can handle?

Shocked, Su Jingxing did not stop what he was doing. The Blood Doppelganger released a large amount of blood energy to wrap around the escaping Blood Doppelganger and gather them together.

Then, it put it into its body.

"Haha, you're courting death!"
