Stepping out onto the corridor near the windowed balcony,
Su Heng reached out and took the materials from An Ran’s arms, carefully flipping through them. His brow would sotis furrow and then relax. As his Cultivation Realm had advanced, Su Heng wasn’t yet at the level of Heavenly Deceit, but his brain’s processing speed was many tis faster than that of an ordinary person.
He had browsed through the hundreds of pages of materials in less than a quarter of an hour.
The materials were not about Hunxi Mountain and the Dragon Abyss Plains.
Although Su Heng had promised Dragon King An Shelie to return his ashes to his holand, with the north bank fallen and the Demon Suppression Army looming outside the city walls of Skull Plain, it was clearly not possible to attend to these trifles at the mont. They would have to be deferred.
The matter of "Cloud Heaven".
Apart from broadening his horizon and letting Su Heng clearly understand the current situation,
It also brought him a sense of urgency.
His current strength was sufficient for self-preservation, but Su Heng couldn’t possibly stay in Baihua County forever. If he had to leave for so reason, his family and friends in Baihua County would easily encounter danger amidst the chaos.
There were two thods to solve this problem.
The first thod was to recruit so powerful individuals to station in Baihua County and help guard his stronghold.
The second thod was to use special ans to raise the strength of his own n to at least a level that could contend with Heavenly Deceit.
This idea seed far-fetched, but it wasn’t necessarily impossible to realize.
Su Heng rembered the Dragon Guards he had encountered in the tomb of Dragon King An Shelie.
Therefore, after returning from the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm, Su Heng tasked An Ran with this matter, to collect relevant information. And now, the thick stack of papers in Su Heng’s hands represented more than twenty days of An Ran’s busy efforts.
The specific thod to create "Dragon Guards" was An Shelie’s top secret.
Apart from him, it’s estimated that no one else knew.
But the general direction was still passed down through so ancient texts.
Combined with the Dragon Guard Corpses that have been unearthed around Canglong Mountain these days, Su Heng already had so concrete ideas in mind. Of course, turning these ideas into tangible results would still require a series of brutal human experints.
Compared to An Shelie,
Su Heng had a higher level of developnt for Dragon Blood.
Moreover, he also had sothing like the Tai Sui Fungus Strain that could directly transform flesh and organs.
With the basic dical knowledge Su Heng had accumulated from his previous life, it was possible that the Dragon Guards he cultivated could be stronger than An Shelie’s finished products.
The only problem was...
Finding volunteers willing to participate in his experints might be sowhat difficult.
Su Heng looked out the window, his brow furrowed in thought.
anwhile, An Ran rubbed her hands together, looking up at Su Heng with so unease.
"Are these materials satisfactory?" An Ran finally could not restrain herself and asked proactively after a mont.
"Not bad," Su Heng replied with a smile upon hearing her. He was not stingy with praise for his subordinates and said truthfully, "These materials are much more detailed and comprehensive than I imagined, and I already have a rough idea. You have been a great help to this ti."
"Hehehe, that’s great," An Ran scratched her head, appearing very pleased.
"Oh, right!" She suddenly rembered sothing and slapped her forehead.
She took out a scroll the size of a thumb from her bosom and handed it to Su Heng, "This is a secret letter from the Demon Suppression Army, it’s related to an organization called ’Shadowy’. The General who contacted said that you should be more cautious."
"Is that so?" Su Heng frowned, opening the scroll and quickly scanning the secret letter.
His slightly furrowed brow relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face.
He had just been worrying about where to find test subjects, and this secret letter imdiately provided Su Heng with a direction.
It’s as if sleeping brought a pillow; fortune arrived just at the right ti! Recorded in the letter were so of the locations of the "Shadowy" organization’s strongholds in the Jiang state area, as well as their possible targets. Shockingly, Su Heng saw his and Zhao iying’s nas among other acquaintances.
Snap!
Su Heng snapped his fingers.
The secret letter ignited, turning into a handful of ashes that fell outside the window.
An Ran stretched and yawned, "My lord, is there anything else you need to instruct?"
Seeing her with dark circles under her eyes, Su Heng felt softer in his heart.
"No more for now," Su Heng comforted, "The next matters don’t involve you. Rest well for a while."
"Okay, then I’m off," An Ran waved goodbye to Su Heng and quickly disappeared into the long corridor.
Watching An Ran leave,
Su Heng turned to face the window.
He extended his hand forward, and a handful of pale grey energy appeared in his palm.
The energy spun like a hurricane, emitting "whooshing" sounds and picking up speed before bursting open with a bang and turning into a delicately detailed bird. The bird flapped its wings and flew into the sky, circling before landing back in Su Heng’s palm.
With an upward screech, the energy dispersed and then reford into a bear of roughly the sa size.
The bear’s muscles bulged as it struck out more than a dozen tis in rapid succession.
Despite its small size, the bear’s unleashed power was formidable. Each swipe disturbed the air, twisted sunlight, and exploded in the corridor with a dull roar.
Su Heng’s mind stirred.
He spread both hands, and the energies transford into the bear and the bird simultaneously.
The bird took flight while the bear roared. They tangled in the air, feathers dropping from the bird and the bear displaying gashes, a mist escaping their forms. For a mont, the two seed alive in their reluctance to part, fighting fiercely.
