Chapter 1019: Chapter 1021: Spirit Pregnancy_1 Chapter 1019: Chapter 1021: Spirit Pregnancy_1 Having left the Assessnt World, Song Jian did not arrive at the Assessnt Hall but instead appeared directly in his own Manor Castle.
After passing the second-tier combat power assessnt, Song Jian would be able to continue leveling up; otherwise, he would be stuck at level fifty, unable to gain any more battle experience.
However, after taking one look at the combat experience needed to reach the next level, Song Jian imdiately felt a headache coming on. It was a step up from level forty, and if one were an ordinary player, they might spend a year of ga ti to raise just one level at most.
“And there’s this thing, pretty difficult to handle, huh!” Song Jian glanced at the white jade statue in his hand, a faint golden light slowly spreading from within the statue. An invisible fluctuation continued to expand outwards, reaching far distances. Even when he placed it in his inventory, this intangible fluctuation did not disappear, only becoming extrely faint.
“I must nurture it as soon as possible, imprint my ntal mark on it, and then integrate it with the broken Divine Country,” Song Jian thought to himself.
Without completing the essence nurturing step for the God fragnt, Song Jian did not dare place it in the Divine Country. Who knew what strange events might occur when an unclaid God fragnt ca into contact with the original Divine Country.
“Tell the butler, George, that I need to cultivate in secret for a period of ti, seal the entire Manor Castle, and see no one!” After giving this order, Song Jian entered the basent of the Manor Castle, where, aside from the Blood Pool, there were no other objects. It was the safest place in the entire Manor Castle.
The blood in the Blood Pool seed to be eternally boiling, bubbling with effervescence. Song Jian could feel that the pool constantly nurtured essential substances, but as soon as these essences appeared, they were absorbed by the blood slaves spread throughout the Manor Castle.
At this point, the Manor Castle no longer needed blood slaves to guard it or to hunt the monsters that accidentally strayed too close. The Manor Castle had beco the core of the City of Hope, with construction ongoing for tens of kiloters around, leaving no chance for any monsters to survive.
Song Jian brought out the white jade statue and pressed it against his forehead, maintaining this position without moving.
In fact, the mont it touched his forehead, Song Jian’s ntal Strength began to infiltrate the white jade statue. It was like entering a stranger’s room, where you must break the lock on the door.
The essence nurturing technique that Song Jian had learned was akin to a lock-picking skill, unlocking the door to the unfamiliar room and then claiming it as his own.
Of course, this thod could only be used on ownerless fragnts of divinity. Otherwise, if the room you were infiltrating had an owner, no matter how exquisite the lock-picking skills, it would alert the room owner and lead to their counterattack. Then, forget about taking over the room; you might even end up beaten black and blue by the room owner.
Song Jian’s ntal Strength surged like tides, wave after wave, continuously infiltrating the white jade statue. In Song Jian’s sea of consciousness, there was no white jade statue in sight, but rather a sun-like, golden orb radiating endless light and heat.
The golden light burned vigorously as if it were tangible, and the mont Song Jian’s ntal Strength touched it, it was like pouring a ladle of water onto a fireball, causing an intense reaction.
Once this erosion process had begun, it was difficult to stop halfway. Otherwise, the ntal Strength that had been eroded would instead beco nourishnt for the divinity, causing the ownerless God fragnt to grow stronger and making the next attempt at erosion even more challenging.
Song Jian allocated all the free attribute points he got from the successful second-tier combat power assessnt entirely into his ntal attribute. At this point, Song Jian’s ntal attribute had already broken through two hundred points, reaching two hundred and fifteen.
In the real world, such a high level of ntal Strength could already influence others’ consciousness, similar in effect to hypnotism, which was a very frightening thing.
At that ti, in a void, the azure ntal Strength swept through like a tidal wave, surging wave after wave toward the golden orb. The entire process seed very monotonous. Only after the ntal Strength had fully eroded the orb, could Song Jian imprint his spiritual seal inside, signaling the completion of the nurturing spirit step.
Knowing that Song Jian had passed the second tier combat power assessnt and returned to the City of Hope, Wang Qi and so other administrators of the City of Hope had co to the City Lord Mansion, full of hope to et with Song Jian.
After all, during his absence, the City of Hope had continued to develop, accumulating a pile of matters that needed Song Jian’s decisions.
Many things needed to be executed through Song Jian’s City Lord seal. It was only then that Wang Qi and the others realized why Song Jian was willing to delegate so much authority to them. Due to the existence of the City Lord seal, it was impossible for these administrators to betray him. Any action they took would be reflected through the City Lord seal, allowing Song Jian to see everything at a glance.
Besides, dismissing them was also a very easy task. They only needed to retract their privileges through the City Lord seal, a process that was straightforward and convenient.
“What, the City Lord is in seclusion?” Looking at a white-haired NPC nad George, Wang Qi was sowhat surprised.
“Perhaps it is because after passing the second tier combat power assessnt, the City Lord has gained significantly and needs so ti to adapt,” a recruited NPC administrator said in a low voice, stroking his chin.
“Then, when can the City Lord end his seclusion? We need to see him!” Wang Qi said.
“I apologize, esteed ones, the City Lord has not specified a precise ti for his seclusion, nor do I know when he will erge,” George said with a face full of regret.
“Sigh, I hope the City Lord cos out soon. I have a pile of things waiting for his decisions,” Wang Qi sighed and shook his head.
Ti flew by quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a week had passed. The City of Hope’s Transmission Array had already begun to open to many cities. Tatyana had also acquired her own laboratory within the City of Hope, dedicating all her energy to the research of adhesive nanobots.
One day, outside the Protection Black Mist, a middle-aged man in a long robe gazed at the roiling black mist before him, a smile of surprise spreading across his face.
“This is the place, unbelievable. In such a backward and remote area, there could still exist a divine fragnt. It’s truly incredible!” the middle-aged man muttered to himself, slowly walking toward the Protection Black Mist.
No sooner had he approached the Black Mist than a bestial roar could be heard from within, causing his countenance to change dramatically.
“This is… city-level defense, a formidable tactic indeed. As expected, a divine fragnt is not so easily obtained!” The man’s movents stalled, and his eyes flashed brilliantly, trying to discern what lay within the Black Mist.
But no matter how hard he tried, he could only see up to ten ters into the Black Mist at most. Penetrating the mist to see what was inside was simply impossible.
“This defense… it’s sothing only a main city would possess…” A drop of cold sweat slid down the forehead of Sosmia; the golden light in his eyes slowly faded as he looked at the rolling Black Mist, his face showing a look of hesitation and struggle.
