Chapter 842: [650] Enlightening for a year, Attribute Points reach new heights! (Asking for monthly passes and subscriptions) Chapter 842: [650] Enlightening for a year, Attribute Points reach new heights! (Asking for monthly passes and subscriptions) A year hurriedly passed by.
Atop the summit of Misty Valley, a heavy snow fluttered down.
“To have one true friend in life is enough.”
The old master smiled contentedly as he passed away that day.
Despite having anticipated this mont, when it finally arrived, my heart still ached.
The snow fell thick as feathers, as if heaven and earth were joining in the farewell.
Led by Pei Jinye, the people of Misty Valley solemnly escorted the old master on his last journey.
“This lifeti has been enough.”
“Farewell, old master.”
…
Atop the peak.
Pei Jinye sat alone in front of the chessboard, regrettably, now with one less opponent across it.
“Let’s go back.”
When he returned to reality, the feathery snow before his eyes had vanished.
In its stead was the warm afternoon sun descending from the sky, filtering through the balcony window into the dormitory.
Pei Jinye took a deep breath.
He turned to look at himself in the mirror.
The determination on his face slowly dispersed, returning to an appearance appropriate for his current age.
This past year, he had spent conversing with the old master.
More than the surge in Attribute Points,
His knowledge had broadened considerably.
It must be said that the old master of Misty Valley was the most talented individual he had ever encountered.
It’s just a pity that the good die young…
He turned on the tap, and cold water splashed over his face.
Pei Jinye finally regained so clarity.
In this world, it was but a montary affair, so he should not exhibit any strong emotional fluctuations, lest others perceive sothing amiss.
The Fla God’s Coffin was his biggest secret and should not be compromised!
…
The tea on the table was still steaming.
Pei Jinye picked it up but ultimately set it back down.
He swiped to pull up the attribute panel.
…
[Vitality Value: 82300-82308]
[Physical Strength: 82300-82309]
[Spiritual Power: 82990-82999]
During the year of enlightennt, all three Attribute Values had already broken through the significant barrier of eighty thousand.
Especially his spiritual power,
Which had risen the fastest.
It was regrettable, though, that the supplies for cultivation were nearly depleted.
Be it the Liyue Sword Sect, the Heavenly Technique Sect, or even Wanda Country, this season’s supplies had gradually been used up during this period of training.
It’s worth ntioning that,
During his ti in Misty Valley, while Pei Jinye debated with the old master, he also studied cultivation and Arrays with Elder Qi, with considerable gains.
So of the Spiritual Objects from Misty Valley were monopolized and impossible to find elsewhere.
This greatly facilitated Pei Jinye.
The work for the Heaven God inevitably increased, but the benefits were also clear.
The second generation of cultivated Spiritual Objects could increase Attribute Points by an additional one to three hundred points.
Unfortunately, mass production required a Nurturing Origin Array and could not be widely distributed unless Pei Jinye soday excavated another Spirit Ore vein.
He activated the Yuan Shen Mirror.
Pei Jinye kept his Cultivation within the Third Rank range.
He began to “work” by controlling his brainwaves.
He managed several families’ affairs in secret, covertly growing his influence, and continued to monopolize resources to firm up his position.
But this was Different World,
And he had to be careful of the Federation’s scrutiny, so Pei Jinye needed to ensure that the connection line ford by these families remained undetected.
“Buzz, buzz.”
It was then,
That he received a secret ssage from the Silver Art.
[Confird: the Blood Ghost Ape will arrive at White Dragon City tonight at eleven.]
Pei Jinye replied thoughtfully.
Elder Candle of the Old Gods Association had long coveted the Demon God’s bone within him.
Multiple probes had already been irritating,
And last ti they blatantly used the Silver Art to threaten a eting, which was outright insane.
But regrettably, Elder Inorganic interfered last ti, injuring the opponent but failing to leave a lasting impact.
Since then, this “Candle” had seed to vanish…
…
“He is coming.”
Pei Jinye sent a ssage.
…
By evening,
Pei Jinye appeared at Xu Wanxiao’s villa, where the two stood facing each other.
With a nod from Pei Jinye,
Xu Wanxiao made the first move, lunging forward with a punch aid at Pei Jinye’s chest.
That punch was the Long Arm Fist Style.
Nearly a month of rigorous training had shown obvious effects.
To Pei Jinye’s keen eyes, Xu Wanxiao’s punch was already better than at least 80% of the Institute’s trainees.
Xu Wanxiao had intensified her practice, combining movent techniques with the Breathing thod, and the coordination was sowhat proper.
Although much stronger than when she started, to Pei Jinye, her movents were still clumsy, slow, and lacked strength.
He raised his hand to block.
Xu Wanxiao’s montum was halted instantly.
She froze,
Believing it was her most perfect strike yet, only to be effortlessly parried.
Pei Jinye’s arm rested on hers, guiding it in a fluid motion.
Xu Wanxiao nearly tripped and fell.
“Earlier, you shouldn’t have gotten distracted,” Pei Jinye said bluntly.
Xu Wanxiao’s face flushed, “Sorry.”
Fortunately, Pei Jinye didn’t continue on the subject, but simply stated, “Continue attacking.”
Xu Wanxiao nodded, this ti even more earnest.
The afternoon sun was like a sea of gold; the collisions between the two kicked up dust all around, shattering the dry air into countless trajectories.
Three breaths later.
Xu Wanxiao stepped back two paces and looked up, her expression one of disbelief, “Am I actually unable to force even your third move?”
But Pei Jinye shook his head, “You’ve got the techniques down pretty well, but you’re still missing so insight.”
Xu Wanxiao sparred with him to refine her martial arts.
And Pei Jinye was no different.
He compressed his strength and honed his precision, controlling every bit of his output, which was greatly beneficial for his mastery over his body.
He made no attempt to hide what he told Xu Wanxiao.
Xu Wanxiao was like a student solving problems; the teacher had taught the first example and given her a template, but she was stumped as soon as the description of a similar problem was slightly changed. She still lacked adaptability.
Xu Wanxiao felt sowhat ashad.
But, Pei Jinye simply said, “Continue.”
Xu Wanxiao took a deep breath, nodded, and was very thankful to Pei Jinye for preserving her dignity.
They continued their practice.
“Bang!”
Xu Wanxiao’s arm was blocked once more, unable to strike further.
She didn’t know how many tis she had been stopped in the sa manner now.
This ti, she finally smartened up.
She changed her footwork, her body priming as if to burrow into Pei Jinye’s embrace, her arm moving like a poisonous snake aiming for Pei Jinye’s throat.
This change of move finally had so sense to it.
Unfortunately for her, Pei Jinye’s counter-move was even more exquisite.
Xu Wanxiao’s arm was locked in place.
She couldn’t advance,
nor could she retreat.
They had been sparring for a while and were both sweaty, which led to so inevitable close physical contact at such a distance.
The situation was bordering on being overly intimate.
Suddenly, Xu Wanxiao’s face turned bright red, “I give up.”
Pei Jinye let go of her.
As if he had noticed nothing.
He then replayed the sparring match with her.
“…So in summary, you need more creativity, not just rely on a single set of technical templates. Whether or not you’ll join a frontline combat team in the future, it’s still necessary to have these self-protection skills.”
Xu Wanxiao felt ashad, but sohow curious, she suddenly looked up at him, “Were those missions you went on in Da Peng City really that dangerous?”
Pei Jinye looked at her and nodded, “In Da Peng City, operations involving Third Rank participants were already classified as high-level criminal cases; one careless mont could an losing your life.”
“So, are you really that amazing?” Xu Wanxiao asked eagerly.
Pei Jinye shook his head, “I just got lucky, and I have a bit of talent, but speaking of experience, there’s still a lot to learn.”
Speaking of talent… Xu Wanxiao sounded sowhat emotional, “Is my martial arts aptitude really that bad?”
She looked at Pei Jinye, seemingly hoping for so words of comfort.
But clearly, she had a misperception about Pei Jinye.
He nodded, “It is sowhat poor; perhaps you’ve been pampered too much, which has led to so foundational issues… Of course, being a Transcendent not from the Body Technique System, it’s sowhat understandable.”
Xu Wanxiao appeared downcast, sighing despondently, “I also have so regrets. I should have studied more diligently.”
“It’s not too late to learn now,” Pei Jinye said slowly. “For us, as long as the Vitality is sufficient, we have a chance of reaching the higher ranks.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Wanxiao’s spirits lifted.
For her, striving for higher attainnt in martial arts was indeed strenuous.
But all she needed was to ensure her Vitality was sufficient.
As for martial arts, she thought, just master one or two reliable life-saving skills…
With that thought, Xu Wanxiao’s face relaxed into an easier smile.
“Want to go out for so late-night snacks?”
“No, thanks. I have so things to take care of tonight.”
Pei Jinye declined Xu Wanxiao’s invitation, and although she felt disappointed, she still arranged for her family’s driver.
…
“Mr. Pei, take care.”
Outside of Dragon City martial arts university.
After the driver dropped Pei Jinye off, he left.
Completely unaware that Pei Jinye hadn’t entered the school at all.
Instead, he had turned into the nearby food street and then slipped away quietly.
…
At 10:45 PM.
A sudden heavy rain enveloped the entire White Dragon City.
There were hardly any pedestrians on the street, with only the occasional vehicle rushing to escape.
At a corner of the harbor,
two youngsters in raincoats stood by the shore.
“Got a light?” the short-haired youngster asked with a cigarette in his mouth.
His companion glanced at him and replied inexplicably, “I’m not Feng One.”
The short-haired youngster was stunned for a mont and then realized, “You and your brother look so much alike; you’ll never have to worry about your wife walking into the wrong room.”
“Buzz off.”
“What are you angry about? You should learn from your brother; he wouldn’t get mad.”
The short-haired youngster had no choice but to remove the cigarette from his mouth, “What ti is it?”
“Fourteen minutes left.”
“We got here too early, chaotically.”
The short-haired youth cursed under his breath.
“Does Blood Ghost Ape have a mission this ti?” he asked.
His colleague answered stiffly, “I don’t know.”
The short-haired young man chuckled, “First ti on a mission? So nervous? Don’t be. What could go wrong? The Federation dogs can’t even detect us, let alone stop Blood Ghost Ape, a Seventh Rank Domain Strongman, in this tiny place.”
His colleague finally looked a bit more at ease.
“Sizzle.”
At that mont,
the streetlight at the corner began to flicker twice…
