Chapter 451: Situation 449 One Chapter 451: Situation 449 One Black lines quickly flowed into the ground from the back of Yu Hong’s right hand.
Soon after, a feedback inquiry rang out, and at the sa ti, a countdown appeared as well.
’41 days 3 hours 07 minutes’.
That long…
Yu Hong hesitated for a mont, then imdiately replied with confirmation.
Having experienced the destruction of the Black Light, he had realized that against the Source Disaster, making oneself undetectable was the best strategy.
Because the power of the Source Disaster was limitless, opposition would only lead to chaos. To use one’s limited strength to fight against the infinite Source Disaster was pointless.
Hiding and covertly infiltrating to investigate the situation was the optimal approach.
He now suddenly understood why the True Origin Sect had built the Savior Ship. A ship infused with the vitality of the Black Disaster could indeed play a far greater role than using the sa power to fight the Black Disaster.
In order to find the land of vitality within a hundred years and to find a solution for Prison Island, it was very necessary to spend so ti strengthening a sufficiently concealed safehouse.
With the confirmation of the strengthening, the countdown comnced.
The safehouse ca to a complete stop in this part of the Cloud Sea that was close to the North Heavenly Gate.
Ti flowed day by day after confirming the strengthening.
Yu Hong devoted himself to cultivating the Tai Ling Skill.
On the thirteenth day, he successfully entered the Third Layer.
On the twentieth day, he entered the Fourth Layer.
On the thirtieth day, he entered the Fifth Layer, matching the progress of the Light Disaster Tai Ling Technique.
At this point, all of his strength except for the Spirit Light Secret Technique had returned to normal.
And on the fortieth day, Ku Chan, who had been in charge of healing and observing the situation, noticed sothing here.
“This old Daoist, I’ve noticed that he appears once every ten days and stands in the exact sa spot for thirty-four minutes, then he enters a house, and when he cos out, he brings a small black jar with him,” said Ku Chan, standing in front of the observation window, pointing out the motionless white-bearded elder to Yu Hong.
“Besides, each of his actions and steps is as precise as if asured with a ruler, exactly the sa as before,” he added.
“Do you think he has discovered us?” Yu Hong asked in a deep voice.
“I’m not sure. But I feel sothing is wrong here,” answered Ku Chan, “Even the most precise person cannot repeat exactly the sa action, walk the sa path, or take steps of the sa width without any variation. Therefore, I’m doubtful whether these Spirit Disasters that seem to talk, move, and attack are really living people.”
“Whether they are living people or not, we ca here with only one purpose—to find Quan He and rescue her,” Yu Hongdao said.
Now that his Tai Ling Skill had returned to the Fifth Layer and followed the path of Spiritual Energy, it greatly increased his spiritual strength.
His previous Spiritual Value of over twenty thousand had now increased to over a hundred thousand due to cultivating the Tai Ling Skill akin to Spiritual Energy and was still growing.
This was still far from the limit of the Fifth Layer of the Tai Ling Skill.
“Senior Quan He’s Spirit Light signal, I also sensed it twice before, it’s only about two to three kiloters away from here,” said Ku Chan.
“The key is that it’s inside the North Heavenly Gate; we must not rush things and should approach the situation gradually,” said Yu Hongdao.
After returning to the Fifth Layer, his perception also expanded a lot under the significant increase in spiritual strength, regaining a bit of the feeling when the Spirit Light was amplified.
It must be known that when the Spirit Light was present, he could reach the staggering level of tens of millions. His Spiritual Value was extrely terrifying.
But now, he could only sense it very cautiously.
While they were discussing this.
Suddenly, a noisy sound of drums and music ca from outside.
The sound was like that of many people playing ancient instrunts such as guqins, zithers, war drums, pipas, etc.
The sound was sonorous and powerful, carrying an atmosphere of the battlefield.
Yu Hong and the others quickly rushed to the observation window to look out.
In the vast white Cloud Sea outside, at that mont, there was a procession covered in Golden Light, carried by two Golden Dragons, surrounded by a group of Golden Armor-wearing Three-eyed Dragon n, slowly descending from the sky and heading into the North Heavenly Gate.
Strangely, as soon as the procession landed, it disappeared with a fizz.
“Could that be the convoy of so big shot from here?” Yu Hong speculated.
“Once they entered, they disappeared, there must be so highly advanced spatial isolation Array laid out inside,” said Ku Chan.
“Perhaps we could try getting closer…” Yu Hong mused. After returning to the Fifth Layer of the Tai Ling Skill, his cultivation progress resud the previous pace, much slower. He didn’t need to cultivate all day long anymore.
“Is it feasible to move the safehouse directly in?” Yiyi asked.
“I don’t know, let’s try it,” Yu Hong released his Inner Strength from the Tai Ling Skill, covering the entire safehouse.
He now suspected that he had activated the Moon God Bloodline in his body, and the Moon God was very likely connected to the Heaven here in myriad ways, or even possibly part of it.
In that case, he might be able to use his own aura to mask the aura of the safehouse.
In the blink of an eye, another day passed.
The Black Mark strengthening finally ca to an end, this forty-one-day strengthening period could definitely be considered as one of the longest strengthening tis that Yu Hong had ever spent.
He arrived at the Main Control Room a bit earlier, closed the door, and quietly waited for the final mont.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Yu Hong adjusted his breathing while staring intently at the changes in the safehouse.
Clap.
Finally, the countdown ticked to zero and disappeared instantaneously.
And the entire safehouse also blurred for a mont. The White Stone used to calculate the enhanced items on the ground vanished as well.
The next second.
The security house camouflaged as clouds completely lost any last vestige of sound and tactile flaws.
It beca sowhat translucent.
Yu Hong, who was inside, instantly had an instruction manual in his hand.
There seed to be no other noticeable changes inside.
He picked up the instruction manual with so confusion, and even as the owner, he didn’t feel much of a difference.
He could only check what was recorded in the instruction manual.
‘This enhancent, referencing the principles of operation of the Sky Wish Sect’s Light Shifting Chamber, has isolated sound and touch, and the original Array has been enhanced into a Light Shifting Array.’
‘Light Shifting Array: Integrates all the original camouflaging Arrays, significantly enhances stealth effects, and gains an isolation state.
Isolation state: When the security house is stationary, it will be in an isolation state. In this state, all energy fluctuations, sounds, and touches are absorbed and stored. The outside world will perceive it as unperceivable, untouchable, unheard, unseen, and odorless.
Note: 1 When environntal changes are extrely drastic, the Light Shifting Array’s isolation state cannot be activated.
2 The isolation state will continuously absorb all perceptible energies, which has its limits. An hour later, after absorption is full, it must find a place to release everything that was absorbed previously. The specific manifestation will be a huge sound wave, sll, presence, etc., that far exceeds normal.’
Isolation state…
Seeing this feature, Yu Hong knew that this enhancent was indeed a major improvent.
As for the after-effect of absorbing isolation, isn’t it equivalent to an hour of absolute stealth?
As for the release, just find a spot to empty after an hour and then imdiately find a place to hide.
With no gaps, Yu Hong imdiately stretched out his hand again to touch the wall of the security house, beginning to further enhance it.
‘Enhance the strength of the security house’s outer walls, to the limit.’
Monts later, Yu Hong walked out of the Main Control Room looking drained, as if hollowed out.
His expression was weary, and his breath weak.
This ti he had reinjected all his Inner Strength into the reinforcent, so the consumption was naturally much greater. The enhancent ti was still about a month, like the last ti.
Ku Chan and Yiyi were playing checkers at an empty space on the first floor.
It was a ga of draughts.
Every move from Yiyi was pondered over for a long ti before she moved. At this mont, seeing Yu Hong co out, she suddenly stood up with an “Ah!” and accidentally knocked over the chessboard, which clattered over, leaving Ku Chan sitting there in silence, slightly shaking his head and simply closing his eyes in ditation.
“Yu Hong, you look pale. Are you alright?” Yiyi quickly approached, wanting to reach out to support Yu Hong.
“I’m fine, the optimization is done. Now we can try to see if we can enter the North Heavenly Gate,” Yu Hong said gravely.
He wasn’t sure how strong the effects of the Sky Wish Sect’s Array would be, but they had to try.
Upon hearing this, Ku Chan also opened his eyes and got up.
“Isn’t it too dangerous to attempt it all at once? Maybe I should try first.”
“Of course we won’t be reckless.” Yu Hong shook his head and walked up to the observation window.
‘Agrius.’ As he thought of it, the hardworking and tireless model worker Agrius appeared once again and imdiately started to corrode feverishly.
Taking advantage of not being completely corroded away, it sprinted, flying straight toward the North Heavenly Gate.
From the current location of the security house to the North Heavenly Gate, the distance was just under four hundred ters.
Agrius flew at full speed, releasing golden divinity electricity all over.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
Four seconds!
Sizzle!
Agrius suddenly charged into the North Heavenly Gate and before it even hit the ground, it sizzled in midair and burnt to white ashes, dissipating as it fell.
Yu Hong was at a loss for words, but he wasn’t worried about its resurrection. He had already arranged for Agrius to leave a part of its body tissue in the Heavenly River before setting out, so all that was needed was a bit more ti for regeneration.
Now that he had infinite Inner Strength, this consumption was negligible.
“It’s still not working.” Ku Chan frowned on the side, “After entering the gate, the burning obviously accelerated. This ans that the Spiritual Energy Radiation inside the North Heavenly Gate might be much stronger than outside.”
“That’s the case. No hurry, I’ll try again,” Yu Hong’s expression remained unchanged.
He checked his surroundings. Even if he were to force his way through the North Heavenly Gate, oddly there was no one coming out to stop or search them.
The Spirit Disaster Army that was imposing and nurously visible before seed to have disappeared inside, completely silent.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Hong pointed a finger outside the observation window.
Hiss.
Instantly, a black-haired woman in a yellow shirt and white skirt silently appeared beside the security house.
The woman kept her head low, her long black hair completely covering her face as if shy.
Her feet were hidden under the hem of her skirt, completely unseen; the whole person appeared to be floating in midair.
“What is this…!?” Ku Chan had never seen Yu Hong using such a thod before.
“This is the Fear Shadow,” Yu Hong smiled, “You forgot I am the Temple Master of Qingchen Temple, mainly practicing the Guanwu Skill.”
The precursor to the Tai Ling Skill was actually the Guanwu Skill, and one of the biggest features of the Guanwu Skill is that one must overco their own Fear Shadow to earn the right to summon it before stepping into the next Layer.
And Fear Shadow is one of the quite famous symbols of Qingchen Temple.
“This Fear Shadow… why does it feel a bit strange?” Ku Chan scrutinized the floating woman in white skirt through the window.
