Chapter 278 - 247 Aspiration of the Flying Bird_2
At this moment, Chen Mobai’s phone rang.
He thought it was Qing Nu calling again due to her worry, but it turned out to
be Lan Haitian’s.
“You guys go back first, I’ll probably take a few more days before I can come back.”
Is this guy that powerful?
He can still send text messages while fighting?
Chen Mobai was shocked, feeling that he had underestimated the power of cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishment realm. Indeed, there were many areas where he needed improvement.
To avoid distracting Lan Haitian during his peak battle with the powerful opponent, he didn’t reply the text, planning to discuss in more detail upon the latter’s return.
However, at this moment, Chen Mobai realized that he had begun to slacken off since reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.
It seemed that his dream from childhood had been realized and he had lost some motivation.
Then let’s set another small goal!
Strive to reach Lan Haitian’s realm as soon as possible!
Reaching the peak of Foundation Establishment realm would allow him to perfectly harness the most powerful state of the Sword Rainbow Fission technique. By then, should he encounter formidable opponents like the white-eyed woman from the Ascension Sect again, he would be able to fight side by side with Lan Haitian!
Chen Mobai, who didn’t want to become a burden, secretly made up his mind.
“Hold on tight, I’ll take you home.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Jing immediately clung on tighter, with her slender legs looking as though they were ready to spring up. But Chen Mobai’s gaze stopped her, and embarrassed, she lowered her head.
Watching the two disappear, a short, gray-haired female figure appeared in mid-air. She had snow-white skin and brown eyes, but wore a black mask over the lower half of her face, making it difficult to make out her features.
Behind her head, a right hand appeared clutching a cell phone.
It was indeed her who had logged into Lan Haitian’s number and sent Chen
Mobai a message to return first.
It was a bizarre sight, a solitary head and arm floating in mid-air. It could be mistaken for some practitioner of a forbidden technique that allows for airborne corpses.
“Where does our group leader find such monsters!
Lin Yin, as the deputy leader of the Sky Patching Team Six and a veteran of countless battles, found this particularly dangerous. His most dangerous battle was against an evil sword cultivator of the Ascension Sect. The latter, while fighting Lan Haitian, exhibited the realm of Sword Rainbow Fission, splitting a streak of sword light toward her.
It was this very streak of sword light that almost caught her off guard, almost separating her body into two halves, just like what almost happened to Tuoba Wanyi.
Just at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment, Chen Mobai has managed to manipulate the Sword Rainbow Fission. He couldn’t simply be described as a genius anymore!
“Monster” would be a more accurate term!
But this was better in a way, at least it ensured the leader of Team Six was always a “monster”.
Lin Yin was completely unaware that Chen Mobai had no intention of joining the Sky Patching Team.
By the time Chen Mobai and Yang Jing returned to Red Sandstone City without
Lan Haitian’s Yuan Magnetic Force assistance, it was almost dawn.
After reaching the apartment, the sight of Qing Nu and the Yang sisters embracing was such a beautiful scene that Chen Mobai and Kong Feichen made their way to the balcony.
“Thank you, I owe you my life.”
On the balcony, Kong Feichen earnestly spoke to Chen Mobai.
“It was nothing more than a lift of a hand.”
Chen Mobai waved his hand, indicating that he didn’t need to be so serious about it.
“Do you want to know the story of the three of us?
At this moment, Kong Feichen suddenly asked.
Well, since you’ve brought it up, I am a bit curious.
Chen Mobai nodded in agreement.
The two of them sat on the small sofa on the balcony, Kong Feichen opened a bottle of beer, and began his story as he drank.
“The three of us grew up together in a laboratory. There were hundreds of children like us, and from the moment we became conscious, each of us was shut inside room-size boxes like bugs.”
“Every once in a while, someone would be taken out to undergo all sorts of experiments. Some kids never came back once they left.”
“As you may have guessed, the purpose of those experiments was to create superior Spiritual Roots. We are their most successful experiments.” Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai frowned. These stories, which he had only seen on television, actually existed in reality?
Kong Feichen lifted his sleeve, revealing a dark tattoo on his chest: [E2] “I am a second-level Spiritual Root. As it turned out, our experiments were exposed, and a bunch of people from the Immortal Sect came to clean up.” “The three of us were then sent to a welfare institute in Red Sandstone City.” “But before we left the lab, we were all cursed with a mark that prevents us from talking about anything happening there.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai felt very strange.
“Then how are you able to tell me?”
“I didn’t spend my years at the Imperial Medical Academy in vain. I unsealed it when I was in the stage of Foundation Establishment, but because of this, I failed.”
“No wonder, despite your talent, and us providing you with so many spiritual objects, you still haven’t successfully establish your foundation.” Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai seemed to understand, it finally answered one of the questions in his heart.
“There is another thing, even my sister and Yang Jing don’t know about.’ At this moment, Kong Feichen suddenly put his cup down, and said something that made Chen Mobai very concerned.
“What?”
“I also practiced the Twofold Divine Technique.”
“Huh?”
Kong Feichen looked at Qing Nu and Yang Jing sleeping soundly on the couch after crying, tenderness flickering in his eyes.
“When Yang Jing was a kid, he dreamed of being a snake so he could crawl out of the square room to observe the green grass and fresh flowers.
“And I, I dreamt of being a bird that could freely soar in the sky. “The Sealing Skill given to us by Captain Gan was right, but I made some changes to the Sealing Skill I gave you.”
Chen Mobai’s face dramatically changed, he got up and was about to make a move, only to find himself unable to move.
“Did you poison the beer? What did you do to Qing Nu and Yang Jing?”
It was at this moment that Chen Mobai realized something was wrong.
With the cultivation level of Qing Nu and Yang Jing, no matter how tired they were, it couldn’t be like this.
At a time when Kong Feichen was telling such an important story, there were no interruptions.
“It’s not poison, but a medicine that can enhance the quality of spiritual power. In the past four years, I am the top medicinal student at the Imperial Medical Academy, and my tutor regards me as a genius who can change the future of Immortal Sect’s pharmacology.”
Kong Feichen took out an empty glass vial from his bosom, explaining as he spoke.
“This spiritual medicine is named ‘Solid’. You can regard it as an advanced edition of Solidifying Qi Liquid, it solidifies the spiritual power of the cultivator. As everyone knows, the process from liquid spiritual power to solid is the process of Core Formation.”
“The medicine I am referring to simulates this process. Though, it only carries a ten-thousandth of the spiritual effect of Liquid Gold Return Pill, it can allow you to experience higher-quality spiritual power in advance.”
“But since your body and Divine Sense are still at the foundation stage, you can’t use such high-quality spiritual power. But the effects of the drug can only sustain for half a day.”
After Kong Feichen had finished speaking, he placed the empty glass vial on the table in front of them. He then finished the rest of his beer.
“Oh, yes, this medicine only works on liquid spiritual power, so for a Qi Practitioner like me, this is really just beer.”
“What are you trying to do?”
Chen Mobai tried to think about a solution while also trying to gauge Kong Feichen’s true intentions.
“Nothing, I just can’t let go of my past.”
Kong Feichen touched his tattoo on his chest, he laughed self-mockingly, his face slightly distorted, and suddenly, his pupils turned dark gold.
-I practiced the Twofold Divine Technique. I thought I could bury my past hatred, pain, and despair. But, I overestimated myself; I couldn’t do it.” Upon seeing this, Chen Mobai understood that Kong Feichen was already controlled by the other personality within his body.
Or maybe the two personalities reached an agreement in their shared hatred. ■Tve been searching for the answer to undo the Twofold Divine Technique at the Imperial Medical Academy in the past few years. The only solution I found was the source of this forbidden technique, the Devour God Technique.” Kong Feichen walked into the living room saying this. He lifted Yang Jing who was sleeping in Qing Nu’s arms, covered Qing Nu with a blanket, returned to the balcony and activated a talisman.
A silver fire ring tore a portal out of thin air on the balcony.
“I’ll leave my sister to you, I am taking her to get cured.
After saying this, Kong Feichen stepped into the silver fire ring with Yang Jing. At this moment, a grey, short-haired head emerged in mid-air. Lin Yin silently wielded a dagger, aiming it at Kong Feichen’s neck..
