Chapter 979: Chapter 455: The Characteristics of “Ashes”_2
“Your creativity is impressive.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 was taken aback by Lin Yi’s idea, “In a desperate situation, you might perish.”
“Why do I feel like your pronunciation sounds a bit strange?”
“No, what I ant is that in a desperate situation, you don’t need to worry about so much, right?”
“That’s true…” Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully, “So, does ‘Ashes’ actually have no special traits?”
The Convenience Store Owner -003 pondered for a mont, then said cautiously, “If I must say, the supernatural traits in Ashes are probably just ‘tempering’ and ‘perception’…”
Lin Yi asked, “Is it the kind of tempering and perception I’m thinking of?”
The Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “Pretty much, no other aning, ‘tempering’ is about continuously purifying supernatural power, just like a Sports Student can make his own breath turn increasingly blue, you can let the supernatural power within you infinitely approach ashes, but of course, doing so carelessly will ignite you prematurely…”
“And ‘perception’ is rather mystical, when you’re burning, your consciousness can transcend ti, like ‘Dream Building,’ getting lost in the path of the Ashen Apostle, feeling the ti flowing through the bodies of other Ashen Apostles…”
“It’s pretty mystical, right? You’ll understand when you experience it.”
“Once you are no longer the Ashen Apostle, you can’t enter that path, so if there’s an opportunity, it’s still worth a ‘taste and stop’.”
Lin Yi remained silent, with his eyebrows slightly furrowed.
He was planning to ask about the information on that Ashen Apostle within the campus, but the Convenience Store Owner -003 had already told him.
He wanted to inquire about the truth behind the incident involving Head Yuan and Mu Daxian, but the Convenience Store Owner also told him.
He already knows roughly the entirety of the event.
He slowly exhaled, following the gaze of the Convenience Store Owner -003, looking at the light spot within the ‘Burial Body’ that seemingly resembled Old Mo’s heart, “How long will it take for Old Mo to be reborn?”
“It will take so ti,” The Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “I’m not an Immortal, I can’t just assemble him and blow so immortal breath like saving Nezha, right?”
“Moreover, this ti the material’s position is extraordinary, if lucky, Old Mo might step into the ‘Supre Judgnt’ path.”
“‘Supre Judgnt’!” Lin Yi couldn’t help but exclaim, “Will he beco a Night Watchman?”
“No, he won’t.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 rarely pursed his lips and added, “Not only won’t he, his actions will be restricted to the Cafeteria area, belonging to the ‘castrated version’ of ‘Supre Judgnt’…”
“Emmm…” Lin Yi couldn’t help scratching his head, thinking how Old Mo’s skill is always the castrated version, and at this rate, might as well call him Mo Gonggong…
“I recall, you’re about to leave the campus soon, right?” The Convenience Store Owner -003 asked.
“Huh?” Lin Yi didn’t know why the Convenience Store Owner -003 suddenly asked this.
“What I an is, before you leave, you probably won’t see Old Mo fully recovered.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 paused and then added, “I rember since I first saw you, up until now, it’s already been the fifth day.”
“Fifth day?” Lin Yi was taken aback, “It’s indeed my fifth day since entering the school… Wait, you an?! Wait!! You… you’ve seen on the night of May 6th?!”
Lin Yi tried hard to recall, and then a hazy silhouette suddenly flashed across his mind.
Probably when he was with Old Mo going to the restroom, he vaguely saw a fleeting figure in the dim shadow at the end of the corridor.
He still rembers that feeling, chillingly sinister, terrifying yet carrying so inexplicable taste…
Was that silhouette the Convenience Store Owner -003?!
“It was just a coincidence.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “Because you were with that guy, that’s why I rembered you imdiately.”
“‘That guy,’ you an Liangzi?” Lin Yi asked.
Upon asking this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Wei Liang said he followed the rule, spending the seven days in the triangle of the Teaching Building, Cafeteria, and Dormitory wisely — no, the five days plus the last days of confused consciousness.
He didn’t even enter the convenience store, how could he have left such a deep impression on the Convenience Store Owner -003?
“That guy… quite troubleso.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 ended the conversation, not wanting to continue further, “If you really want to know sothing, you can ask him.”
“Uh… I wanted to, but he wouldn’t say anything.” Lin Yi pouted.
The Convenience Store Owner -003 said, “He will talk, just that the ti is not right now.”
“Boss, are you… close with Liangzi?” Lin Yi suddenly asked, and upon saying this, he stared intently at the sapphire-like eyes of the Convenience Store Owner -003.
However, he couldn’t see any abnormality in the Convenience Store Owner -003’s eyes.
“t a few tis, that guy ssed up the convenience store, if it wasn’t for his quick escape, I’d have caught him to clean up.” The Convenience Store Owner -003’s expression remained calm.
But Lin Yi couldn’t believe what he just heard.
[If it wasn’t for his quick escape]
Not? The Convenience Store Owner’s aning is… Wei Liang escaped from his grasp?!
Moreover, from [t a few tis], seems like the implication is each ti Wei Liang successfully escaped?
I must say Fortune Life Wei Liang the Celestial!
This can’t simply be explained as ‘crafty tricks,’ right?
And was the Convenience Store Owner -003 looking for Wei Liang when he discovered him?
“Then why didn’t you stop him at that ti?” Lin Yi asked.
The Convenience Store Owner -003 shook his head, “Not necessary.”
Lin Yi thought if Liangzi were here, he’d surely give a thumbs-up and add, “You’re quite a nice person, huh.”
The Convenience Store Owner spoke and slowly turned away, starting to leave this area where the ‘Burial Body’ is present.
Lin Yi saw this and withdrew his attention from the ‘Burial Body,’ then followed the Convenience Store Owner -003’s steps.
“Oh right.” The Convenience Store Owner -003 suddenly stopped, Lin Yi almost bumped into him but managed to turn aside.
“What’s up?”
The Convenience Store Owner -003 returned to the ‘Burial Body,’ then reached out and pressed onto the ‘Burial Body’.
The ‘Burial Body’ seed to sense sothing, writhing intensely like boiling liquid, simultaneously emitting a sort of high-frequency, piercing shriek.
But the Convenience Store Owner -003 was unfazed, just coldly humd:
“Engler Går mOt lySet og går ikkE på Avveie…”
These syllables seed to carry an indescribable magic, dropping onto the ‘Burial Body’ like a tangible decree, and the mountain-like ‘Burial Body’ imdiately cald down. Then countless corpses started twisting, faintly like vines splitting sideways.
Eventually, the ‘Burial Body’ opened a pitch-black and deep crevice, a flesh branch covered in oily, sticky liquid slowly erged from the darkness, reaching out like a tentacle.
At the tip of the flesh branch, sothing seed to be wrapped.
The flesh branch wriggled and extended, finally coming before the Convenience Store Owner -003, and then it slowly opened, letting sothing enveloped fall onto the Convenience Store Owner -003’s palm with so liquid.
A bone.
A pitch-black bone, one end like a spherical bulge, the other like a broken spike, overall looked like a charred black coal, the surface of the bone was full of crooked golden inscriptions, like a beginner’s crude attempt at carving, barely forming so strange text.
The text seed like a secret mark, yet not quite, compared to the secret marks Lin Yi had seen before, this text appeared overly akin to so ancient script he was familiar with.
The Convenience Store Owner -003 turned and handed this bone filled with inscriptions to Lin Yi.
