Chapter 136: Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill! Old Kong’s News
After reading the diary, Bai Yu’s expression was strange.
Three months later.
“No! What did I even do these past three months? How did I become so carefree? I was clearly being very low-key.”
“Black Tortoise, activate! How exactly do we do this? Brother, can you explain it in more detail?”
“It doesn’t even mention whether the Dragon Pearl was obtained or not.”
“However, one thing is certain: without my Golden Finger, I would definitely be writing a diary every day.”
Thinking about it carefully, he really would do that!
If he lost his Golden Finger tomorrow, he would immediately start writing a diary.
There might even be a theory of multiple fate lines merging into one, with the most complete one being chosen in the end.
“At least I know what I got from the Treasure Vault today. My combat power looks very strong now, and I need defensive and life-saving items!”
He then stretched, checked the time, 6:16.
Seeing this, he didn’t waste any words and continued cultivating for a while longer, planning to check the canteen after seven.
Seven twenty.
In the canteen.
As soon as Bai Yu walked in, he saw Li Yunbin and the others and immediately walked over.
Seeing Bai Yu arrive, Liu Feifei muttered, “Finally, I get to see you, Mr. Busy!”
“Haha~ It’s mainly because of the Black Blood Disease these past few days, so I was quite busy. I shouldn’t be needed now. Also, I returned yesterday evening. I asked Brother Tang Yi, and he said you all went to listen to a Big Boss lecture.”
“And you didn’t even take me!”
Hearing this, Liu Feifei immediately found a topic and said, “I was just about to talk to you about cultivation!”
“What’s up? Could it be that I can also advance to the Spirit Yuan Realm?”
“That won’t do! With your excellent talent, you definitely need more refinement.”
Li Yunbin interjected at this point, “Go get your breakfast, and we’ll tell you about the recent arrangements later.”
“Alright!”
After returning with breakfast, Li Yunbin began, “Currently, the superiors have arranged for different groups to be selected from various districts and sent in different batches to the Holy Land cultivated by the Eight Gates Spirit Gathering Array in the Northern Mountain Range for five days of cultivation.”
“The Eight Gates Spirit Gathering Array! Left by Old Kong?”
“Yes. Professor Kong has been living in Tianhai City and can’t possibly travel to the desert every day to research the Spirit Gathering Array, right? In the Northern Mountain Range, there is a trial ground for the Eight Gates Spirit Gathering Array. It’s in the other direction of the Nine Snake Bend National Highway fork, which was previously closed off and called a military restricted zone.”
Bai Yu still had some impression of this.
He just didn’t expect that area to be a trial ground for the Eight Gates Spirit Gathering Array.
Thinking about it carefully, it was quite normal.
The Northern Mountain Range of Tianhai City was very suitable for spiritual land experiments.
And he thought even deeper, recalling the combat report about the birth of the Dragon Pearl: 【The superiors immediately ordered to withdraw from the competition.
In this incident, the officials lost two cultivators at the Spirit Sea Realm, over fifty at the Spirit Yuan Realm, totaling more than eight hundred people, and a large amount of facilities were severely damaged】
At that time, he found it strange. They had clearly ordered a retreat, so why were the losses so heavy?
Now it seemed! The arrangements in the Northern Mountain Range were beyond imagination.
Seeing that Bai Yu remained silent, Li Yunbin continued, “According to the arrangements, we depart on the morning of the 15th and return on the 20th. What are your thoughts on this?”
“Of course, I’ll go with you all! Speaking of which, in three to five days, I should be heading to the Thunder Laboratory with Professor Feng and the others. I’ll cultivate for a while then. After I’m done cultivating, we can go to the cultivation site together and refine my strength.”
With this matter settled, Li Yunbin mentioned, “Director Yang said he’ll be at the Treasure Vault at nine in the morning, and he’ll look for you then.”
“Did he say where to wait?”
“You just need to stay within Tianhai City.”
“.”
Why did I hear such a strong sense of showing off in these simple words?
The Star-Gazing Big Boss is terrifyingly powerful!
After breakfast, Bai Yu continued to cultivate.
With the Nine Heavens Thunder Movement True Technique now, Bai Yu was seizing every minute and second, cultivating madly!
As long as it doesn’t kill me, I’ll train to death.
His previous cultivation had been too smooth. Now that he finally had something challenging, it naturally ignited his fighting spirit.
Around eight-thirty, Bai Yu completed a combo, finishing three tasks in five minutes, and then started running.
Start the timer!
“Whoosh~”
Bai Yu, like an arrow released from a bow, began running within the Investigation Bureau.
The outermost perimeter of the Investigation Bureau was about eight hundred meters long.
However, Bai Yu only took 23 seconds for his first lap.
His speed reached 34.8 meters per second.
His second lap took even less time, only 21.5 seconds.
On his seventh lap, he even broke the 20-second mark. However, he started to slow down afterward.
Transcendent beings also have limited stamina!
This scene still attracted the attention of many people in the bureau.
Wei Yunfei, the Captain of the Seventh Group’s Second Team, muttered from a third-floor window, “If he keeps developing like this, he’ll probably be running around the Jiangnan District. Soon, he’ll be running around Tianhai City.”
“Captain, how’s your stamina? What’s your speed?”
“Cough, cough, I’m at least at the late stage of Qi Gathering, and I haven’t neglected Body Refining. I’m even thinking of following the Ancient Martial Arts path!”
“So, what is it?”
“About 18 meters per second.”
“Then that’s less than half!”
“Hey~! Then you guys should try harder and improve your physique. If we get a genius in the Ancient Martial Arts system, it’ll be easier for me to lead them.”
Everyone turned their heads away.
The Ancient Martial Arts path wasn’t that easy to follow!
“By the way, isn’t the Group Leader from an Ancient Martial Arts Family? How far can he go?”
Wei Yunfei scratched his head and thought for a moment, “Although the Group Leader is from an Ancient Martial Arts Family, not all Ancient Martial Arts Families follow the Ancient Martial Arts system. Bai Yu is running purely with his physical body. The Group Leader should be the type to fly with his sword.”
“That’s true! Flying with a sword sounds so cool.”
“Captain! I want to learn to fly with a sword!”
“Me too!”
“Get lost! Just focus on opening enough acupoints to advance to the Spirit Yuan Realm first.”
Below.
Bai Yu finished his running task in five minutes and was now panting heavily.
Feeling the sweat dripping from his body.
“Hoo~ So refreshing!”
Speaking of which, in his previous life’s definition, he didn’t know if this world was considered Spiritual Qi Awakening, Cultivation, or High Martial.
If calculated as High Martial, especially those interstellar worlds, they could move at kilometers per second!
Cultivation also involved various flying magical treasures.
“Calculated this way, I’m still far behind.”
At this moment, Director Yang walked over.
Bai Yu immediately stood at attention, “Greetings, Director Yang!”
“Mm.”
“Uh, are we leaving now?”
He thought about it, the sweat on his body felt a bit uncomfortable.
“You should clean yourself up. I’ll wait at the entrance.”
“Alright, alright!”
Without any further ado, he dashed back to his room, quickly cleaned himself up, and then got into Director Yang’s black car at the entrance.
Spiritual Energy Research Institute.
Bai Yu and Director Yang walked out, looking at the place where they had negotiated yesterday, and said with some surprise, “The top-tier treasures are in this place?”
“Yes, the security here is extremely tight. The Treasure Vault is underground.”
Director Yang didn’t say much, so Bai Yu didn’t ask further and followed him inside.
After a while, passing through layers of security checks, everyone took an elevator to the fifth basement level.
Speaking of which, the Jiangnan Treasure Vault he visited last time was built on the foundation of ruins. Bai Yu thought this top-tier Treasure Vault might be built with something even more impressive.
But upon arriving and looking closely, he saw only red wooden cabinets, with a total of five rings.
It looked a bit like a top-tier library.
There were also beautiful decorative items on the ceiling.
Director Yang said calmly, “Next to each treasure, there is a detailed description of its specific functions. You can choose anything here, but only two items.”
“Understood.”
Bai Yu’s eyes immediately fell on something that seemed incredibly powerful: the Golden Crow’s Claw.
It looked like three light gold claws, similar to a chicken’s claw.
He looked closely at the description.
【Golden Crow’s Claw
Burst Limit: Level 32-35
Requirements: Fire, Yang attribute cultivator, and bloodline compatibility are required to mobilize the Golden Crow power within.
Description: This item can transform into a Golden Crow phantom or a blazing arrow.】
As soon as he finished reading about this item, he saw the next treasure, a talisman called the Purple Cloud Divine Talisman.
According to its description, it could be used more than once and its power was comparable to a Level 30 Spirit Sea Realm cultivator’s might!
It even stated that compatible users could recharge it to unleash even greater power.
And these items were not the most powerful. Bai Yu looked further and saw the Nine Nether Mirror that could pull people into the ghost realm, the Azure Pearl that summoned tides, the Nether Bell that summoned ghost soldiers, and the Dragon Abyss Sword for combat.
There was even a red silk ribbon that inherited a trace of Nezha’s Hun Tian Ling’s power, which could extend and shrink, and change size.
“My goodness! What should I do if I want all these things?”
“Then keep working hard. These things can all be kept for you.”
“. That would exhaust me to death!”
As he walked, he suddenly found an item mentioned in the diary.
Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill!
Bai Yu looked at it carefully. This item could repair most injuries in the Soul Sea.
Even if used before death, as long as the soul was not completely annihilated by the opponent, the soul would be restored.
However, the drawback was that it could only exist in a soul form.
Bai Yu wondered internally: The Yin Messengers used Ancient God advancement items, perhaps they were supplemented with something like this?
But just as he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a special sense of being watched.
He felt a chill and couldn’t help but look back at Director Yang.
“What’s wrong?”
Director Yang suddenly smiled and said, “You know quite a lot.”
Bai Yu’s heart skipped a beat.
Damn! Mind-reading?!
“It’s not mind-reading, it’s just that our fortunes are somewhat connected.”
“It seems you learned about Yin Messengers from that battle at the auction.”
Connected? Gay lovers?
The moment Bai Yu had this thought, he immediately reined in his mind.
Judging by Director Yang’s expression, he didn’t seem to have sensed his peculiar train of thought.
Moreover, Director Yang thought he learned about Yin Messengers from the auction battle, but he had actually obtained the information during the party when Liu Ruoxi was returning.
It seemed Director Yang wasn’t omniscient.
Director Yang then asked, “Do you know the true identity of the Yin Messenger?”
Bai Yu immediately focused his mind, clearing his thoughts.
In this state, Director Yang pondered for a moment and guessed, “Judging by the fluctuations in his expression and eyes, he probably knows.”
“Being with you, Director Yang, puts a lot of pressure on me!”
“Haha~ Alright, continue choosing. However, the matter of the Yin Messenger cannot be told to Ruoxi.”
“Understood! But she’s eager to cultivate right now.”
“Her inability to cultivate is actually related to her mother. Her mother has a severe constitution of absolute meridians, and she inherited a part of it. This kind of absolute meridian constitution is not uncommon, accounting for 20% to 30% of the population. Liu Jun, unable to forget his wife’s inability to cultivate, has even made it an obsession and has been preparing for Ruoxi’s cultivation. If you have the ability, please help if you can.”
“Alright!”
Listening to these words, Bai Yu fell into thought.
While thinking like this, Bai Yu also had a sly idea, and then turned back to ask, “Since this Treasure Vault has the Nine Revolutions Soul Returning Pill, then what about Big Boss Kong Shen…”
“He is dead, yet alive. Everyone has their own choices. Old Kong simply chose another path.”
“Okay.”
Receiving this answer, Bai Yu felt a bit pleased.
He then looked at other treasures.
After a while, he found the Black Tortoise Shield!
【Black Tortoise Shield
Burst Limit: Level 36-40
Requirements: None
Description: Simply infuse it with Spiritual Energy to activate its defensive power, which varies depending on the attribute of the Spiritual Energy. Water attribute Spiritual Energy is optimal. According to tests, Water attribute Spiritual Energy can unleash the Spiritual Art – Black Tortoise Dragon Turtle Shield.
Special Use: After blood confirmation, it can transform into two forms: a bracer and a shield.】
At this moment, Bai Ling’s voice sounded.
“Brother Bai Yu, I can feel a powerful force within this shield.”
Bai Yu’s heart stirred.
Among so many treasures, he felt that without the diary, his chances of obtaining the Black Tortoise Shield would have been very low after seeing it.
After all, the lightning attribute was compatible with him.
He didn’t expect Bai Ling to remind him!
The diary also said he was smart, meow meow meow, misleading people!
‘What energy?’
‘I can’t describe it, but I feel a very powerful force.’
‘Alright, it’s fine. I’ll study it properly later.’
Bai Yu didn’t waste any words and directly told Director Yang that he wanted to take this item.
“Yes. This item can transform into a bracer. If you’ve truly made up your mind, you can confirm it with your blood now.”
“Okay!”
Without any delay, feeding the Overlord Cauldron during this period had made dripping blood a habit.
He bound it directly.
The item instantly transformed into a blue-green stream of light and attached itself to his right wrist.
Looking closely, it was a dark green bracer with patterns, and it looked quite good.
After looking at so many items, Bai Yu was indeed experiencing choice paralysis. After thinking about it, he found the Yaochi Holy Water mentioned in the diary.
Next to the Yaochi Holy Water, he saw an ancient artifact that existed in his previous life – the Beast Head!
There were only Ox, Tiger, and Snake.
Looking closely, it required zodiac compatibility.
The key point was that these three items were Ancient God advancement items. After successfully contracting them, one could obtain a complete cultivation system.
If Bai Yu hadn’t already embarked on the path of cultivation, he would have been quite tempted.
Without lingering, he looked at the Yaochi Holy Water.
The description for this item was quite comprehensive.
