Chapter 721: Let’s See How You Go Mad
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Below the Blood Spring, William asked, “Venerable One, how do we use these soul channels?”
Vigilante A said profoundly, “I’ll take this opportunity to invite a mighty being in.”
William was somewhat ignorant and did not know who the other party was talking about.
‘All the entrances and exits of this place had been sealed. How would that mighty being enter?
‘How can the Venerable Dragon G.o.d be so confident?’
However, he was a man of discretion and did not ask questions. He would simply wait and see.
Then, he saw Vigilante A close his eyes, but could not figure out what he was doing.
After around ten minutes, a cloud of smoke suddenly appeared on the surrounding stone walls, somewhere between the spiritual fires.
A figure appeared from the smoke. It looked like a young Chinese man, with a compa.s.sionate face.
“Oh, Bodhisattva…” He immediately recognized this mighty being and hurriedly bowed.
‘I see.’
‘This Bodhisattva was actually from the Upper Realm. How strong was the barrier between Earth and the Upper Realm for him to be able to enter? Furthermore, into this arcane realm?
‘The Venerable Dragon G.o.d must have provided the spatial coordinates using the soul channel earlier, so he naturally had a way to enter.’
“Haha, please don’t be so courteous. It’s been awhile, have you been well? Pray tell, what purpose have you called upon me today?” The Bodhisattva Spirit King greeted warmly.
“Not well at all. I’ve been trapped in this evil land for more than half a month. I don’t know how many dregs from the outside world have taken advantage of this opportunity and how many innocent victims have been injured. I sigh in the day and am unable to sleep at night. I can only be trapped by this evil land, completely helpless.” Vigilante A shook his head and sighed.
Fang Ning could not bear to hear any longer and said, “Hey, can you lay off the exaggeration? Only you can boldly say such shameless words. Since where were you unable to sleep at night? You obviously never sleep at all.”
“That’s the truth. Stop causing trouble for me. Do you want to do it instead?” The System said rightfully.
“No way, my face is nowhere as thick as yours.” Fang Ning conceded defeat.
“Haha, so there’s still a place that can trouble the Venerable One. How curious. I’m interested. Let me have a look first.” The Bodhisattva Spirit King smiled.
“Very well. Thank you, Bodhisattva.” Vigilante A cupped his hands in obeisance.
“Don’t mention it.” The Bodhisattva Spirit King closed his eyes, and thousands of light s.h.i.+ned from his brow to all directions.
“Hiss… how come he can use magical power?” Sir System was astonished.
“What are you shocked about? Didn’t you just use the True Bodhi Tactics Legendary Level Secret Arts ‘Soul Recall’ earlier?” Fang Ning scoffed.
“That was because I used 30 million experience points, okay?” Sir System said plausibly.
“Huh, in other words, you actually have a way to deal with that Astral Formation? Then why did you run away earlier? Why didn’t you just use some experience points to get rid of them straight away?” Fang Ning questioned.
“It’s different. Since the spring needs to be connected to the outside world, the Heavenly Axiom’s limitations are weaker here, so I could use the Secret Arts. However, the River of Blood is in the center and is strictly controlled, so I’ll need to use a hundred times more experience points to cast a spell. Where do I find that much experience points?” The System said helplessly.
“So that’s why. There really are pits everywhere.” Fang Ning was struck by realization. No wonder the System had run away earlier. With its stingy personality, it was normal for it to act this way.
At this time, the Bodhisattva Spirit King opened his eyes. He smiled and said, “It looks like the Heavenly Axiom of this world is already mature and has a clear goal. It doesn’t distinguish between good and evil, truly a troublesome enemy.
“Yes, it’s exactly as you said.” Vigilante A nodded, “How should we deal with this? It’s different from the Earth’s Heavenly Axiom outside. The Earth’s Heavenly Axiom follows the rules of nature. It would not commit outrages, much less devour human souls to strengthen its own power.”
“Haha, that’s natural. The Earth’s Heavenly Axiom outside was nurtured by human civilization. After its birth, it followed the grand and righteous path. It relies on the inheritance of culture, the reproduction of population, and the natural movement of heaven and earth to strengthen its power. It doesn’t need to use these despicable methods.” The Bodhisattva nodded, “This small arcane realm is no larger than a thousand li 1 . In order to strengthen itself, it naturally will capitalize on its advantages to the extreme, and not have any misgivings and apprehensions.”
“Huh, Mr. Rich Boss, it seems like the Bodhisattva doesn’t know that the Earth’s Heavenly Axiom has already changed.” The System was puzzled.
“Hm, maybe he already knows, but it’s just inconvenient to tell us now.” Fang Ning speculated.
“How troublesome. This guy obviously doesn’t trust us enough.” Sir System grumbled.
“We didn’t tell him either. Everyone’s on the same boat. After all, there are very few people like us who can fully trust each other.” Fang Ning appeased.
“Well, that’s true. I know all of your secrets.” Sir System said proudly.
“d.a.m.n it, have you no shame? You keep peeping at my thoughts, how could I have any secrets?” Fang Ning felt indignant.
“Uh, I’m off to do business. I’m not going to talk nonsense with you anymore.” The System quickly put forward an unconvincing argument and fled.
Vigilante A said to the Bodhisattva Spirit King, “I see. The Heavenly Axiom of this arcane realm restricts us in all aspects, but the Bodhisattva seems able to circ.u.mvent this restriction. Could you teach me how?”
“Haha, that’s simple. The Upper Realm has a long history. In order to avoid the Heavenly Axiom’s disasters, pract.i.tioners have developed all kinds of ingenious methods. With the Venerable One’s abilities, you’ll understand immediately.” The Bodhisattva Spirit King laughed.
“In that case, please teach me, Bodhisattva.” Vigilante A said lightly, as if in no hurry.
Immediately, the Bodhisattva Spirit King began to use telepathy.
Before long, Fang Ning heard the System Notification.
[Bodhisattva Spirit King taught the System how to circ.u.mvent the Heavenly Axiom’s restrictions— Mythical level skill ‘Fooling the Heavens to Cross the Sea’. Ten billion experience points are needed to learn it.]
“Ugh, Mr. Rich Boss, I can’t bear to.” The System said.
“You can’t make an omelet without breaking eggs. Just do it…” Fang Ning persuaded, “You already plundered the precious game book’s experience earlier, and you’ve farmed here for over half a month. You definitely have enough.”
“Fine, for long-term consideration, I’ll learn it.” The System grit out.
System Notification: [The System paid ten billion experience points and learned Mythical level skill ‘Fooling the Heavens to Cross the Sea’. After activating the skill, many Heavenly Axiom’s restrictions can be circ.u.mvented.]
“Ah, I’m completely broke again. There’s no more surplus grain left even in the landlord’s estate. I only have more than a billion experience points left.” The System sobbed at its poverty.
“You’re not even saying an exact number. You must be fooling me again.” Fang Ning did not believe it.
“I’ve always been an honest and innocent System. It’s always been you fooling me, I’ll never fool you.” The System said sheepishly before changing the subject, “Looks like there’s still a lot to learn. A tough problem for us was easily solved from this Bodhisattva from the Upper Realm. Let’s see how that group of alchemists goes mad.”
“That’s right. This is the power of knowledge. The Upper Realm has cultivated for an unknown amount of time. Earth won’t be able to catch up to them in just a day. However, we don’t need to belittle ourselves. We have our own unique advantages that they can’t match either.” Fang Ning sighed.
“What unique advantages?” Sir System questioned.
“The thickness of your skin. It’s unparalleled in this entire world…” Fang Ning took the chance to jab at the System…
“Uh…” Sir System had nothing to say.
At this time, Vigilante A said, “Thank you, Bodhisattva. Looks like I’ll be able to correct the Heavenly Axiom’s path and make it mend its own ways. It’ll understand the true essence of love and justice and never commit such cruel things again. Please rest a.s.sured, Bodhisattva.”
“That’s good. In that case, I’ll leave now.” The Bodhisattva disappeared between the stone walls after cupping his hands.
“Alright, we can go out now and deal with those evil villains.” Vigilante A said powerfully.
“I shall follow the Venerable One to eliminate evil.” William said briefly but forcefully.
The two people then left the spring in tandem.
