Ji Xinghuo squeezed through the crowd, moving further and further away from the arena.
Surrounded by people, there were also many Winged People flying above, all retreating from the arena. Such a significant incident had occurred, and many spectators realized the danger, not daring to stay long.
So wanted to keep their distance, while others wanted to watch the excitent, resulting in chaos on the streets around the arena.
Within the surging tide of people, one powerful figure after another flew overhead.
"Roar..."
One after another, three-headed Linyan Dragons landed in the arena.
One belonged to Linyan Yongfeng and was the first to arrive; the other two ca flying over from the Dynasty Embassy, each carrying a legendary fighter on its back.
Ji Xinghuo looked up at the two legends and felt sowhat puzzled inside.
These two True Dragons were almost always with Linyan Yongfeng and should have the responsibility to protect the young Dragon Lord, but for so reason, today Linyan Yongfeng arrived at the arena alone, without them by his side.
He recalled the words shouted by Linyan Yongfeng.
That Mind Hacker manipulating emotions in the shadows—if it weren’t for their ddling, he wouldn’t have had the chance to fish in troubled waters.
"Linyan Jingfang..."
"Judging from this na, could it be a family feud?"
Ji Xinghuo’s magnetic field perception covered two kiloters, attempting to locate that Mind Hacker, but there were too many people within range. With over a hundred thousand spectators alone, and even more around the arena, finding a hidden target among several hundred thousand people was too difficult.
His attention returned to Linyan Yongfeng.
The young Dragon Lord was in very bad shape, having sustained many attacks, seriously bleeding, with the cut to his neck that he himself had made being the most severe. He was already at death’s door.
Actually, Ji Xinghuo had a chance to finish Linyan Yongfeng.
While taking the necklace, he could have easily followed up with another Thunderbolt Hand.
But doing so would have greatly increased the risk of exposing himself. Moreover, if Linyan Yongfeng had died, it would have surely stirred up a torrential storm.
The Linyan Family would undoubtedly turn Yunxiao City upside down to find the murderer of the young Dragon Lord.
Leaving Linyan Yongfeng alive spared him a lot of trouble.
Linyan Yongfeng had lost his necklace, but that was his biggest secret, one he could not disclose to others, leaving him with no excuse even to start a city-wide search.
Even if he wanted to search, he had no target.
Ji Xinghuo had always maintained a good cover for his own identity. During these days, he had been active in Yunxiao City as a citizen of the Dynasty. When he made his move just now, his face was covered, in stealth state, and the weapon he used was a scimitar picked up from the ground.
"There should be no loopholes."
"The only thing that might give away in the future are the few blows exchanged directly with Linyan Yongfeng. He will probably never forget them in his lifeti."
"Should we clash again, Linyan Yongfeng will undoubtedly recognize ."
As Ji Xinghuo thought this, he saw two Winged People Feather Kings and True Dragon legendary fighters entering the scene, killing over a hundred Winged People who were attacking Linyan Yongfeng.
Instantly, the frenzied Winged People were subdued.
Linyan Yongfeng was lifted from the pool of blood, completely unconscious, and placed on the back of a dragon, ultimately saving his life.
"What a pity!"
Ji Xinghuo clicked his tongue.
If the Winged People had killed Linyan Yongfeng after he left, he would have been rid of the trouble forever.
Soon, the three dragons flew overhead again, taking Linyan Yongfeng back to the Dynasty Embassy, while a few Feather Kings continued cleaning up the ss in the arena.
The unexpected bloodshed incident thus ca to an end.
From what Ji Xinghuo knew of the Sky Feather Royal Court and the True Dragon Dynasty, this matter would likely be left unresolved. As long as Linyan Yongfeng was fine, things wouldn’t escalate. The Winged People wouldn’t dare to demand an explanation from a young Dragon Lord, and Linyan Yongfeng had no right to apologize to the Queen Lingqi; it would be as if nothing had happened.
However, he didn’t know what Linyan Yongfeng’s reaction would be upon awakening.
Ji Xinghuo returned to his hotel as if nothing had happened.
Looking out from his room’s balcony, there was no movent at the Dynasty Embassy, but within his magnetic field perception, the two legends and two Heavenly Kings were all in Linyan Yongfeng’s room.
They were conversing.
Ji Xinghuo could guess so of the conversation content from their lip movents, mostly concerning what had transpired.
However, the two Heavenly Kings clearly were not taking it to heart.
The only thing they cared about was that Linyan Yongfeng was not dead. With the recovery power of a Dragon Lord, he would soon heal. As for the spectators who had been killed, they were indifferent.
A mont later.
The weaker Heavenly King mounted his dragon and flew towards Queen Lingqi’s Royal Court, probably to discuss how to handle the situation.
Ji Xinghuo withdrew his attention and took a bloodstained necklace out of his Dinsion Stomach.
"Finally, it’s in my hands!"
Only then did he take a closer look at the necklace.
The chain was made of alloy, very sturdy, but he had cut it in one stroke.
The key elent was the pendant, which was a fragnt of a gemstone set in a tal base, the size of a pea and with very irregular edges.
At first glance, Ji Xinghuo knew that the fragnted gemstone was definitely part of the Wanxiang Star Pupil.
Because its material was identical to the Wanxiang Star Pupil, with a transparent outer shell, a colorful nebula within, and an extrely hard texture.
However, the difference was that this was rely a fragnt.
Ji Xinghuo picked it up and observed it closely, feeling sowhat puzzled.
When he first obtained the Wanxiang Star Pupil, it had a complete spherical appearance, like a glass marble. The core, where the pupil was, had cracks, but how did this fragnt detach from the inside of the Wanxiang Star Pupil?
How was this thing supposed to be used?
Ji Xinghuo held it in his hand, trying to channel the star power within his body into it.
Suddenly, an extrely peculiar perception arose in his mind.
All the information about the surrounding objects flooded into his brain; the moving, the stationary, the air, the dust, the light, the bacteria—all were laid bare. His hearing, touch, sll, and vision were enhanced by several levels, and even his thinking speed had quickened, faster than when he was stimulated by high-frequency thinking!
In that mont,
Ji Xinghuo could hear his own heartbeat, even the sound of blood flowing in his veins.
He could sll dozens of different scents in the air, easily distinguishing them.
He could hear the conversation between the front desk and a guest in the hotel lobby, even their breathing.
He could feel the slight friction between his clothes and skin, discerning the material and thickness of the fabric, and with any voluntary movent, he could sense the process of his body moving, muscles contracting, bones exerting force, and the invisible power transferring within his bodily structure.
The world before his eyes beca incredibly clear, and with a bit of concentration, objects could magnify hundreds of tis over, much like a microscope, yet unlike a microscope which only shows a very small part, a large number of images were showing detailed information with such imnse volus that it could burst soone’s brain.
However, Ji Xinghuo was very adaptable to this state.
"This is not Myriad Phenona, although it seems a bit similar."
"It’s far inferior to Myriad Phenona."
Ji Xinghuo subtly felt this powerful perceptive ability and quickly understood.
Initially, when he had fused with the Wanxiang Star Pupil, he mistakenly thought it had the functions of "Microscopic Perception" and "Intuitive Reflex," which partially enhanced his five senses.
But he later found that the Wanxiang Star Pupil’s enhancent in this regard was quite limited, about the sa as ordinary abilities.
"So it was missing!"
Ji Xinghuo realized in an epiphany that this gem fragnt had restored the functionality of the Wanxiang Star Pupil.
It was like the ultimate version of "Microscopic Perception," "Intuitive Reflex," and "Extre Strength" combined, forming an omniscient perception of oneself and the imdiate surroundings, penetrating insights into everything and analyzing them deeply. In close combat, it was nearly invincible!
He said "nearly" invincible, not "absolutely" invincible, because it was not as good as Myriad Phenona.
But the enhancent to Martial Arts was terrifying!
To outsiders, this was a martial arts talent that shone across ages, a supre realm that the vast majority of strong individuals could not reach in their lifetis.
The higher one’s own strength, the more powerful the effect that could be manifested.
"No wonder..."
Ji Xinghuo now understood how Linyan Yongfeng had managed to do it; he must have obtained the gem fragnt as a child, discovered its use, and relied on it to grow step by step. He stood out in his family, gained recognition, and thus beca the young Dragon Lord.
However, the range of this perception was quite small; apart from hearing and vision, all other information was limited to within five ters of himself.
The closer the distance, the richer the details and the clearer the information.
The farther the distance, the blurrier the perception.
Beyond five ters, only a rather superficial sensation could be obtained, and there was no longer that sense of having everything under control.
Moreover, it focused more on microscopic details and changes, concentrating on oneself.
"Insight?"
"Or keen perception?"
Ji Xinghuo thought for a mont and finally decided to call it "Microscopic Perception."
After studying it for a while, the consumption of activating Microscopic Perception was minimal, roughly 4 points of star power per minute. With his own star power, he could sustain it for nearly two hours.
Compared to Myriad Phenona, this was really quite energy-efficient.
If he were to beco a Super Mutant and his star power increased several-fold, just the recovery of star power would support the consumption of Microscopic Perception, allowing it to be activated at all tis.
After studying it sufficiently, Ji Xinghuo withdrew the star power input, and instantly, that sensation of knowing everything disappeared.
The drastic contrast before and after left him feeling a sense of emptiness.
"I’ve only experienced it for a while, and it’s already this uncomfortable," he couldn’t help thinking. "Linyan Yongfeng, having used it for many years, must be suffering terribly upon losing Microscopic Perception – probably to the point of vomiting blood."
"I cannot follow in his footsteps."
Ji Xinghuo looked at the gem fragnt in his hand and couldn’t help feeling fortunate.
Fortunately, Linyan Yongfeng had not been able to fuse with it and could only make it into a necklace to carry around. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy for him to get his hands on it.
"It’s best to fuse it!"
Without hesitation, Ji Xinghuo imdiately thought of the thod to fuse with the Wanxiang Star Pupil.
He brought the gem fragnt close to his right eye, controlled his eyelid not to blink, and touched the fragnt to his pupil.
In an instant, the gem fragnt disappeared.
Ji Xinghuo felt a pain in his brain, as if he had been struck hard on the head, dizzy, the interface of the Wanxiang Star Pupil automatically popped up in his vision, and one of the three arrows disappeared. The reaction to this fusion was much less than before, ending in a few minutes.
Everything seed normal, as if nothing had changed.
With a thought, Ji Xinghuo activated the perceptive ability to penetrate everything and analyze deeply, entering the microscopic state!
Suddenly, his eyes widened slightly, as an unexpected surprise erged after the fusion.
Was the fragnt of the Wanxiang Star Pupil actually an expansion marvel?
