Sun Tai acted very quickly. The next day, he brought over the Illusion Essence and the E-grade ditation thod.
Although the na was sowhat different, it was still filled into potion vials. However, what was inside the glass vials wasn't liquid, but rather a haze of misty blue-white fog.
"This stuff isn't for drinking; you must be sure to read the instructions," Fatty Sun specially exhorted, handing over a thick stack of docunts. "There's only this one copy of the E-grade ditation thod in our Nanfeng."
Su Chen cast a glance over it. A few words were printed on it—Illusory Star ditation thod. He simply flipped through it.
It used breathing as a guide to ditate on ancient stars and trigger the circulation of ntal power.
The two chatted briefly before Sun Tai hurried away. He had also been very busy recently; the people caught last ti were still undergoing screening.
"Not for drinking..." Su Chen opened the tal suitcase and took out the brief instructions for the Illusion Essence.
"This product employs the ticulously researched essence of the mist-realm flower and is a highly concentrated fog... Upon inhalation, it can significantly increase ntal activity. However, if ntal resilience is insufficient, it will cause hallucinations. Please proceed step by step with the dosage used."
Su Chen's gaze swept over it. Below, there was also an illustrated minimal figure showing him how to use it: pull open the vial mouth, then place it under the nose and inhale.
"Inhale... doing this is so much like that." Su Chen was speechless. He took out a vial, and upon plucking out the stopper, wisps of hazy blue-white fog imdiately wafted out.
Su Chen tried taking a sniff. The icy cold fog abruptly dashed into his nasal cavity. Instead of going down his throat into his lungs, it surged straight up toward his brain.
His entire body trembled, and his whole person imdiately entered a state of hyper-excitation.
"So this is grass..." Su Chen shook his head. Feeling that he could still withstand it, and his ntal power began to beco active, he tried inhaling more.
It wasn't until he finished inhaling the entire vial that Su Chen felt his mind beco unprecedentedly active. The surrounding air was stirred up, but no hallucinations appeared.
"It says here that even for advanced professions, it's recomnded to only inhale the whole vial without producing hallucinations after reaching 30% developnt progress..." Su Chen shook his head. "Is it because of the intensity of a peak profession? Or the accumulation from a 1st-tier profession? Perhaps both..."
Not wanting to waste the dicinal effect, Su Chen conveniently poured a mouthful of Mist Fiend Potion down his throat, walked into the Gravity Room, assud his stance, and attempted to circulate the Illusory Star ditation thod.
Almost as soon as he began to ditate, his whole person felt as if plunged into clouds and fog. A blazing, brilliant grand star surfaced in his mind, its starlight dazzling as it washed away distracting thoughts.
...
"He actually ca back safely and soundly?" Upon hearing his subordinate's report, the Priest furrowed his brows tightly.
'What exactly is going on with this Su Chen? Yu Xuan had clearly confird it. Could it be that Zhang Hongbo and the people from Yingfeng couldn't tell?'
"Or are they throwing a long line to catch a big fish?" He couldn't figure it out either, and ultimately, he simply shook his head. "Forget it, the holy statue is the most important thing right now."
The Priest pondered inwardly, 'However, Xia Hanshi's whereabouts are secretive, and I don't know where he is hiding. I must ensure he doesn't disrupt this matter. Let's throw bait out first...'
...
Everything seed to calm down. Su Chen's routine every day was taking potions and training, then training and taking potions.
These kinds of days continued for another five or six days until Zhang Hengyu, who had beco a 2nd-tier professional, ca looking for him in high spirits.
Taking advantage of this opening, Su Chen also went to the cafeteria for a change of pace.
"It truly cannot be ntioned in the sa breath as before. Previously, I sotis fantasized whether I could challenge those of higher tiers," Zhang Hengyu said in high spirits. His body had beco increasingly sturdy and robust, and his aura of life was very vigorous.
According to what he himself said, the profession he advanced to was also a 2nd-tier advanced category called 【Golden Armor Gladiator】, and its intensity was not low.
Zhang Hengyu repeatedly sighed with emotion, "But only now do I realize that even a 2nd-tier lower-grade professional is not soone a 1st-tier professional can casually challenge."
"En, en," Su Chen replied perfunctorily, still shoveling food into his mouth.
"By the way, you beca a 2nd-tier professional even earlier than ." Upon thinking of this matter, Zhang Hengyu suddenly beca sowhat embarrassed. He scratched his head and said, "After this, I might not be able to co here to train anymore."
There was only a single five-tis Gravity Room here. Su Chen definitely couldn't train together with Zhang Hengyu.
"It's fine." Chewing on the fresh, tender leg at in his mouth, Su Chen chatted with Zhang Hengyu for a bit.
This kid was much better than that insidious father of his. Su Chen didn't mind chatting with him more.
After sending Zhang Hengyu off, Su Chen let out a burp and returned to his room. He cast a glance at his panel—
【Gale Hunter: 11%】
【Psionic Adept: 4%】
【E-grade Fierce Wind Body Forging thod—Proficient: 35%】
【E-grade Illusory Star ditation thod—Entry: 40%】
"The potions for this week are basically consud completely. I still have to wait two days for the quota to be delivered..." Su Chen stretched his back and routinely disguised his 【Believer】 as a 【Believer of Black Buddha】 to perform sensing.
He originally thought that, just like usual, there would be no harvest, but this ti, he was taken aback and shifted his gaze toward the northeast.
There was nothing but a wall there, yet Su Chen felt a familiar repulsive-attractive force.
"Another Evil God Artifact?" Su Chen clutched his chest, full of doubt and apprehension. "It wasn't here at this ti yesterday. Was it newly transported in?"
The perception of a 【Believer of Black Buddha】 was not limitless. Currently, he could probably only sense things roughly within the Inner City; the further away, the blurrier it got.
"It's still moving..." He sensed carefully, only able to vaguely feel its approximate location.
Su Chen lost his mood for training and waited until that thing stopped moving and beca fixed in one location.
"It's already six in the evening..." He checked the ti, and the curtain of night gradually darkened.
After another two or three hours, once Su Chen confird this thing wouldn't move again, he finally decided to go out, covering himself with various disguise abilities.
"I'll go take a look. I just happen to be lacking one last hunting target. If things go wrong, I'll just report it."
Su Chen abruptly darted out like lightning, leaving the curtains fluttering non-stop.
Traveling under the cover of night, Su Chen was already highly familiar with the route. With the wind at his back and leaving no trace, he bounded between buildings.
A few hours later, Su Chen arrived near the target and stood within a patch of shadows.
"This place does not belong to the edges of the Inner City; it's already quite far inward." Su Chen scanned his surroundings. The neighborhood was very clean, and there were residential buildings everywhere.
"It's in that building." Hidden in the shadows, Su Chen held up his binoculars, staring at a seemingly ordinary building in the distance. Exactly which floor it was, he couldn't figure out.
There were still lights on in several households.
"Better not risk it. As usual, I'll report it first and then peep from the dark." After thinking about it, Su Chen was just preparing to contact Fatty Sun when he suddenly felt a chilling jolt in his heart and abruptly looked up.
The horizon was brightly illuminated. Golden, blazing flas appeared out of thin air, like a torrential sea of fire rolling and changing shape amidst the clouds. Gradually, it revealed the winding silhouette of a dragon, transforming into a giant dragon of blazing flas that coiled in the sky, lighting up half the heavenly vault.
"What the hell is this thing!" Su Chen jumped in fright. He could even feel the surrounding temperature rising at an extre speed. Out of instinct, he retreated explosively to an extrely far distance.
At the sa ti, wisps of black fog unexpectedly dashed out from a certain room in the building below, condensing above into a gaunt figure sitting cross-legged.
"Black Buddha!" Su Chen stared intently at that black figure.
