Chapter 128: Grand Tutor Wen Zhong’s Cultivation Technique! Alien Race Civil War
“Yo, Professor Wang! Perfect timing to discuss Spiritual Stones.”
As soon as I answered, an excited voice came through: “Kid!”
“??? Old Yuan? Is that you? Did you off Old Wang?”
“Hey! Such disrespect in your speech. No wonder Old Wang always bad-mouthed you behind your back.”
As soon as he said that, he heard arguing from the other side.
Bai Yu smiled, then asked: “Go ahead, what is it?”
“Two things. The first is about the negotiation scheduled for tomorrow afternoon, starting at 2 PM. You better get there early. I’ll send someone to pick you up then.”
“Okay, I’ve noted it down. What about the second thing?”
Bai Yu felt a little anticipation.
Professor Yuan’s tone… could it be that he found that item?
“Hahaha~ This news is definitely great news for you!”
“What news?”
“Didn’t you ask me to find an Ancient God’s Item for you? My connections are quite extensive! I’ve found a suitable one. It’s not from Ancient God Zhang Jiao, but it will be very useful to you! Want to know?”
Bai Yu smiled.
You think I don’t know?
I might know even earlier than you!
However, he didn’t expect it to be found so quickly.
As expected, capable Big Bosses get things done fast.
Their network and resources were beyond imagination.
Meow meow meow~! Old Wang, that ‘useless’ guy, still hasn’t given me the Thundercloud Fruit and the cultivation plan.
See, this is the difference between people! Learn more.
“It’s not a Cultivation Technique, is it?”
The smile on the other side froze, but then he said: “Isn’t that what you asked for? If you can guess what Cultivation Technique it is, then you’d be truly amazing!”
“I definitely can’t guess it.”
“Haha, then I won’t hide it from you. It’s the Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique!”
He had expected Bai Yu to have a shocked reaction, but all he heard was a calm: “Oh, the name sounds pretty awesome.”
Yuan Guofeng’s expression clearly couldn’t be maintained, and Professor Wang’s laughter could be heard from the side.
“Hmph! As expected, you’re uncultured. You don’t know the origin of the Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique, do you?”
“I really don’t. Professor Yuan, please tell me!”
He truly didn’t know this.
Fortunately, this information didn’t require Intelligence Value.
“The Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique is a top-tier Cultivation Technique for the Thunder Department Celestial in the Investiture of the Gods system. Grand Tutor Wen Zhong of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, have you heard of him?”
“Of course I’ve heard of him!”
“In the Ancient God system, he was a top-tier God of Thunder, known as the Heavenly Lord of the Nine Heavens Responding to the Thunderous Might and Universal Salvation. He was much more powerful than recorded in mythological novels.”
“And this technique is considered his main Cultivation Technique as a Thunder Department Celestial. However, how much benefit you can gain from it depends on your own ability. Those with average talent might not even be able to cultivate it. If you can’t use it, just say so, and I’ll replace it for you to avoid wasting it.”
“Oh? This is the first time someone has underestimated me.”
He’s even using his Fate Line without a Golden Finger, how could he not be able to cultivate it!
Do you understand the value of my China O-type blood?
“Alright, we’re done talking. I’m hanging up.”
“Wait, I need to talk to Old Wang about something.”
A voice came from the other side: “Old Wang, someone’s looking for you.”
“Haha~ This kid still has some conscience.”
Wang Wen took the phone and asked: “You brat, what is it?”
“Uh, I have an extra three to four hundred million in funds. I’ll give it to you when we meet tomorrow. Help me buy more Spiritual Stones.”
“You’re treating this old man as a procurement officer!?”
After chatting with Professor Wang Wen, Bai Yu was about to hang up.
But then he suddenly thought of something!
He immediately said: “Pass the phone to Professor Yuan.”
“Hey! You call me Old Wang, but you call him Professor Yuan?”
“See, doesn’t that show we’re close? Good relationship, right?”
“That’s true!”
On the other side, Yuan Guofeng took the phone and asked: “Is there anything else?”
“About the operation at the wharf tonight, are you the Main Culprit?”
Yuan Guofeng was silent for a moment, then said: “What do you mean Main Culprit! I am indeed responsible for this matter. It’s all arranged, don’t worry. And if you’re smart, shouldn’t you be able to guess what we’re doing?”
“Then I’ll give you two more pieces of information.”
“Wait! Let’s find a place to talk in detail.”
“No, no, no, it’s not a big deal, just two names. Is it okay to say them over the phone?”
“Let’s switch to a secure communication channel. Each of your teams has secure communication. I’ll get you connected now.”
“Okay!”
While still on the call, Zhao Bin next to him plugged in the secure communication interface.
This was actually a highly specialized Spiritual Energy particle communication encryption technology. The signal source wasn’t from ordinary cell towers, but from special Spiritual Energy signal towers.
“Go ahead, what’s the news?”
“Dark Dragon Lord, Black Blood Demon Leader. I only know these two terms. The rest is up to you to figure out.”
“Alright! I got it.”
On the other side, after receiving the news, Yuan Guofeng took a deep breath.
He muttered: Is this kid’s Divination?
“I do have some information about the Dark Dragon Lord’s impending action. After all, that Shadow Spider Woman seems to have some connection with him.”
“But Black Blood Demon Leader, what is that?”
He frowned.
Could it be that the Black Demon side has an unexpected player?
But it sounds like it might be related to the Vampire Clan.
I’ll have to investigate thoroughly!
This kid doesn’t provide detailed information.
However, after thinking carefully, Bai Yu’s abilities are related to Divination, so perhaps he only detected these two names.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have kept them hidden.
In the car.
Bai Yu felt relieved after relaying those two keywords.
He had used this method last time with the Cloud Lake Fishman.
He had essentially revealed two pieces of information worth 20 Intelligence Value.
Although he didn’t know the specific details of the Intelligence, it was better to use it if possible to save resources.
After sending the message to Professor Yuan Guofeng, Bai Yu also chatted with his teammates about the night’s operation.
While chatting, he glanced at the weather outside the window.
Gloomy, quite good!
Afternoon.
Bai Yu began to circulate the Great Heavenly Cycle.
【Obtained Golden Intelligence Fragment *1】
This prompt sound surprised Bai Yu.
“Hmm???”
“Currently, there are 25 fragments in total: 21 purple, 3 golden, and 1 red!”
“Based on probability, getting three golden ones isn’t too lucky.”
“However, compared to red intelligence, golden intelligence is definitely more worth looking forward to.”
Feeling a little excited, Bai Yu immediately decided to circulate the Great Heavenly Cycle two more times!
Night fell.
Around 10 PM.
After their patrol, Bai Yu and the others rushed to the designated location: a three-story residential building near Port No. 3.
Two other teams were also in this area.
One of them was even the team led by Lei Wenjie! The other group was Yu Rundong from Yun Dong District’s Team 11, whom he had met a few times before.
Bai Yu naturally paid close attention to Lei Wenjie.
And he could tell that compared to the last Auction, Lei Wenjie’s attention towards him was much higher now!
He wondered if it was simply due to the strength displayed in that battle, or if there was another reason.
‘I must keep an eye on this guy during this fight!’
‘If the conditions are right, I’ll let those monsters gang up on him and see what he’s made of.’
‘If he gets killed by the monsters, then he’s just trash, and it has nothing to do with me.’
At this moment, movement appeared on the high-altitude drone surveillance feed.
Yun Dong Port No. 3 was located northeast of Cloud Lake, only about three kilometers from Jianglin Warehouse No. 4, which they had dealt with before.
A fine drizzle was falling quietly.
Water flowed through the openings into the sewers.
‘Squeak~ Squeak squeak~’
There seemed to be the sound of rats underground, everywhere, a maddening sound.
Under the light rain, dozens of people disguised as dockworkers emerged from the factory building.
They were all holding Samurai Swords!
At this moment, a voice came from somewhere: “Is this all you have?”
A hollow male voice echoed from within the factory building: “These people are enough! It depends on what skills you have.”
On the other side, a Lizardman with a black tail and covered in scale armor also emerged from the factory building.
“Rat King, come out! There’s no point in hiding.”
“If you want to declare war, then let’s have a fair fight!”
As he spoke, a black tide surged from the sewer – a swarm of rats!
This black tide quickly condensed into a humanoid form.
It was a man!
The Rat King glanced disdainfully at the Lizardman.
Then, behind him, several figures appeared: Fishman Race, Vampire Clan, and other Alien Race powerhouses all emerged!
Inside the residential building.
Bai Yu and the others watched the live feed, and with the real-time audio transmission devices placed nearby, they could understand the situation on the ground in real-time.
These Alien Races were all about strength, a barbaric society.
This battle looked like a street fight between socialites, with a vibe reminiscent of the eighties and nineties.
Regardless, this was happening on Tianhai City’s territory, and real-time monitoring and control of the situation were essential!
If things were to escalate further, they would find a wilderness area for a fight to the death.
Staying within the city was about maintaining a certain limit!
Since the Alien Races had sent an anonymous letter to their Investigation Bureau, they naturally knew of their existence.
So the Investigation Bureau wasn’t hiding anything. Drones hovered overhead, and these guys could see them, understanding that airstrikes might fall.
Ultimately, who would gain the upper hand would depend on who had more tricks up their sleeve!
Inside the residential building, a member of Lei Wenjie’s team spoke: “These Alien Races are fighting, and we have to watch their backs. They really have a lot of face!”
At this moment, the guy called the Rat King appeared on screen!
Bai Yu exchanged glances with Li Yunbin and the others.
With two other teams nearby, it was inconvenient to discuss sensitive matters.
But through their exchanged glances, they understood the same meaning: this fight was going to be interesting!
Bai Yu didn’t know if the so-called Night Rat King would directly reveal his identity as the Black Lotus Flower Petal inheritor in this battle.
‘The Investigation Bureau is one party, Black Demon, Lizardman, and Sea Monsters are another, and Dark Creatures and other Alien Races are a third. Three factions, I wonder who will have the upper hand.’
Soon, dense Fishman Monsters, Sea Serpent Clan, and monsters with lobster heads appeared on the surface of Cloud Lake.
Sea Shrimp Race!
As Bai Yu saw more and more monsters gathering, he muttered: “Why aren’t these guys fighting yet? I really want to drop an airstrike!”
“That won’t work this time. The other side has a Spirit Sea Realm expert, they won’t be killed by a bomb. Instead, it will incite the hatred of all Alien Races. Let them wear each other down! Their conflicts are truly resolved by force. Of course, there’s likely another purpose.”
Although Blue Star is the Human Race’s home ground, sometimes, out of necessity, they have to abide by the unwritten rules of the Alien Races.
Otherwise, their counterattack would be very fierce.
Too much rigidity leads to breakage.
China’s five thousand years of strategy were not won by brute force alone.
If all the Alien Races were to unite and eliminate the Human Race first, it would be irreversible.
Time ticked by.
When there were as many as eight hundred red dots on the screen.
“Roar~!”
The Lizardman expert with black scale armor, seemingly angered by the Night Rat King’s spray, unleashed a Blazing Flames breath.
The battle erupted!
What were originally human-like forms instantly turned into a chaotic mix of various Alien Race creatures after the battle began.
At this moment, a voice sounded from the Communication Device.
“All team members please note, the coverage radius of this Empty Sound Realm is one thousand meters. Do not let any monsters escape this range!”
As soon as the voice from the Communication Device stopped.
The sound of a sewer manhole cover being moved echoed.
Not far in front of the building!
Bai Yu immediately looked over and saw a huge rat, about 1.5 meters long, crawl out.
Soon after, millstone-sized spiders also crawled out.
But these monsters hadn’t approached the center of the battle yet.
Suddenly, a black figure with flames spewing from its mouth lunged forward.
“Woof~! Roar~!”
A canine creature!
It opened its mouth and bit down on the fat rat, tearing and refusing to let go. The force of its impact sent the rat flipping and thrown in another direction.
The spiders beside it immediately pounced, trying to latch onto the canine creature.
“Roar~”
The canine creature spat out a deep red fireball, forcing the spiders back.
Zhao Bin: “Hellhound! From the Demon Race.”
“The Hell Race didn’t have a deep foothold in Tianhai City before. Judging by this, are they going to get involved too?”
The Dark Creatures quickly gathered over twenty monsters.
From a nearby alley, more than ten Hellhounds ran out, along with a demon that looked like a leader!
The demon glanced indifferently at the location where Bai Yu and the others were, then directly began fighting the Dark Creatures.
“Aren’t these two supposed to be on the same side?”
As soon as this was said, everyone else realized.
It seemed so!
When they were fighting just now, they almost forgot about this issue because the animosity was so natural.
The relationships between Alien Races are indeed… quite complicated!
Your circle is truly chaotic!
But still needs more practice than the entertainment circle!
If you’re bad, practice more!
The battles among the Alien Races were a perfect example of violent aesthetics, all close-quarters combat, biting and tearing at each other.
The key point was that they mostly didn’t dodge Spiritual Art attacks, relying on Spiritual Art defenses and powerful physiques to withstand them.
Watching this, Bai Yu really wanted to applaud them and add fuel to the fire.
It’s just a pity that one should not speak while observing.
Otherwise, he would at least go on stage to direct, or even provide live commentary.
The viewership ratings would probably be very high, right? After all, it’s more exciting than the national football team.
Paying to watch a 0-7 score, pfft!
