Chapter 364: Mysterious Visitor from the Ice Valley
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The powerful creature from the otherworld that looked like a chimpanzee had sealed a black tide creature in its body. It had seemed like they had died together.
However, it was still one level higher than him, so there was too much that remained unknown about it. It was also possible that it wasn’t completely dead, just that Chen Yiming hadn’t noticed it when he was digging up its corpse.
It was also possible that it had deliberately buried itself in that mysterious underground space. First, it was discovered by the treants, then Chen Yiming dug out its corpse, ruining its plan to revive itself.
“The ball of flesh has turned into an embryo. Can the miracle blood still be produced normally?”
Chen Yiming asked Wu Weiguo. Since the spiritual figure had already broken through when he was revived, he could just kill it with one strike.
Wu Weiguo glanced at Wu Susu.
Wu Susu nodded and released her spiritual power to probe the embryo. This triggered an unknown switch, and golden blood immediately flowed along the surrounding tubes that were used to collect the miracle blood.
This miracle blood was of a completely different quality.
“Can it be controlled by spiritual power?”
Faced with Chen Yiming’s question, Wu Susu explained that she had unexpectedly discovered this. The embryo was like a piece of equipment that was not designed with a lock, and could thus be controlled by any spiritual power.
“Perhaps it’s not that they didn’t design the lock in time, but that small part of the finger is only a very small portion of the 10,000-meter-long corpse,” Chen Yiming said in a low voice.
Thinking of this, he was basically certain that the embryo was an advanced product made by the ball of flesh.
If a complete 10,000-meter-long corpse was provided to the ball of flesh for a long time, there might really be a chance for it to be revived. However, just a small piece of its finger was definitely not enough.
This was his conclusion based on his Level-4 Undying Body talent. He himself had yet to reach the point where he could be revived with just a small piece of his body.
…
After leaving the laboratory building, Chen Yiming couldn’t help but say, “With the overall level of technology on the blue planet, each person’s contribution is very small. On the other hand, it’s the opposite for martial arts. Having more people might not be useful. One’s innate talent is more important.”
The swordsmanship talent and the crystal illusion talent might be more eye-catching in the short term, but in the long term, they might reach their limit in the master realm.
As for Wu Susu, who had a pure spiritual talent, the upper limit of her full potential was much higher than Shen Mengwei and Feng Wuji. She might be able to break through to the inscription realm or even higher like him.
“Understood,” Wu Susu replied, her expression slightly cold.
Chen Yiming nodded. He couldn’t tell if the other party had really understood or not.
Besides, everyone had their own ambitions. He could not force her to kill her own interest and embark on the path of martial arts that she was not interested in.
At this moment, Wang Ronghui came looking for him.
From his changing expression, Chen Yiming thought that the other party was worried that the supply of miracle blood would be cut off, so he came over to understand the situation.
“Four blue-haired foreigners held a banquet at the Jiangnan Hotel and openly announced that they want to ruin the cooperation between the Daxia Kingdom and the European Union?”
Chen Yiming was taken aback by Wang Ronghui’s words.
Where did these people come from? How could they just make such a bold claim? Did they ask his permission before trying to destroy it?
Chen Yiming subconsciously thought that these foreigners were from the European Union and were people who advocated for building the spaceship on their own.
This was very normal. It was just that they had different opinions. Not everyone in the Daxia Kingdom supported the construction of a spaceship that was a waste of manpower and money.
“Feng Wuji tried to test the other party, but he was sealed in ice by the three of them in one move. I don’t know if he’s alive or dead, but he’s frozen in the hall,” Wang Ronghui told him the truth that even he found hard to believe.
Feng Wuji was the fourth martial master in the Daxia Kingdom.
After returning from the otherworld, he had cut off the spies of the enemy and wiped out all the mutant creatures in the Daxia Kingdom.
The power of purification could almost be said not to be weak against any other special abilities, but he was defeated in one move, with his life and death in the hands of others?
Chen Yiming realized that something was amiss. Those blue-haired foreigners definitely didn’t represent the local factions on the blue planet, but the minions of some hidden enemy.
Ice ability? Could they be related to the snow monsters that the European Union could not deal with?
Tracing back to the source, from the moment the cannons defeated the mutant creatures at the border, to earlier when the European Union and the Daxia Kingdom had reached an agreement to work together on the space plan,
and even before that, the snow monsters had caused chaos in the European Union. Even further back, Feng Wuji had taken action to wipe out the mutant humans in the entire Daxia Kingdom.
With countless questions in their minds, Chen Yiming and Wang Ronghui quickly headed to the Jiangnan Hotel.
…
At the Jiangnan Hotel, light music surrounded the hall, but the atmosphere was very strange.
Three blue-haired foreigners took the initiative to talk to the people from the martial arts factions who had come to join in the fun. They promoted their ideals and invited everyone to join them.
The scene was very awkward. The martial arts experts from the Daxia Kingdom cursed themselves for being nosy, causing them to be unable to either advance or retreat.
The strength of these blue-haired foreigners was too terrifying. Feng Wuji, who was still standing rooted to the ground, was an example. A newly promoted martial master had been suppressed by them.
“Lady, your voice has deeply attracted me.”
Faced with the evil-looking man’s words, Han Qiufeng’s face turned pale. She was forced to retreat step by step. The other party was relying on his powerful strength to force her into a toast with him.
The surrounding people sighed. What was the use of bullying a woman? They wanted to help her, but they were shocked by Feng Wuji’s situation and retracted their steps.
“I don’t drink.”
Han Qiufeng’s mind was in a mess, so she found an excuse to reject him.
Because she had met Chen Yiming by chance, her career had flourished under the watch of various parties. This time, she had been invited to the banquet held by the four foreigners with unknown identities.
Han Qiufeng was the first person the boss of the Jiangnan Hotel invited to sing a song for the opening of the banquet.
However, who knew that these four foreigners would come with ill intentions? After freezing the newly promoted martial master, Feng Wuji, their show of power immediately suppressed everyone else.
One of the four people, who was tall and thin, was filled with lust and kept making unreasonable requests.
“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to drink. Let’s go to the back room and play Truth or Dare later. You can have a soft drink while I drink wine,” the tall and thin blue-haired man said with a laugh.
His laughter was filled with the tone of someone who had gained power overnight and liked to bully others. It was similar to a second-generation martial arts practitioner.
“I won’t go with you.” Han Qiufeng’s eyes were filled with tears, but she still refused sternly.
From the other party’s tone, she could tell what his motive was. She had met such people before and rejected them countless times.
The tall and thin blue-haired man was a little angry when he saw that this lady was behaving like a porcupine, repeatedly rejecting him when he tried to get close.
Therefore, he suddenly extended his free hand to forcefully grab her hand.
“Bang!”
His outstretched hand came into contact with an invisible barrier and could not penetrate through it.
“Hmm?”
The blue-haired man narrowed his eyes and muttered, “Is he here?”
Han Qiufeng was shocked and took a few steps back in her high heels, almost falling to the ground.
Her combat strength was low, so what if she had some connections? When no one around her could step forward to control the situation, she would be bullied by the hooligans.
Chen Yiming and Wang Ronghui entered the hotel lobby.
After stopping the tall and thin blue-haired man from grabbing Han Qiufeng, he turned his gaze to Feng Wuji, who was in the middle of the hall.
“Ice formed by the mysterious symbols?”
Chen Yiming frowned and shattered the mysterious symbols on it.
These mysterious symbols had all been engraved in advance, and it was unknown how they were carried around. Feng Wuji had no experience in this area, so he fell for it immediately.
“Achoo!”
The ice seal on Feng Wuji’s body was lifted, and his face quickly regained its color. He sneezed.
The power of nature triggered by the mysterious symbols was essentially still the power of nature. Although there was a difference in strength, it was not as obvious as the power of nature compared to the internal force.
Feng Wuji’s control over his body and his spiritual power were what had been affected by the power of the ice seal.
The blue-haired foreigners stopped their attempts to strike up conversations and focused their gazes on Chen Yiming.
“Dear Mr. Chen, my name is Marek. We are from the Ice Valley. It was just a small misunderstanding. I hope you don’t mind. The four of us came to the Daxia Kingdom with great sincerity,” an older blue-haired foreigner said as he walked over.
“Is this your sincerity?”
Chen Yiming’s expression froze as he sneered.
In his eyes, these four people were already dead. Perhaps the existence behind them did not care about their lives if it actually sent them over to threaten him.
Sealing Feng Wuji in ice was actually a display of strength to inform everyone of the power behind them.
How long the four of them could live depended on when they finished speaking for the person behind them.
Marek’s expression froze, but he quickly recovered. He continued in a measured tone, “The 10 transport planes from the European Union flying straight to the Daxia Kingdom are currently above the sea.”
He had revealed the key to the cooperation between the Daxia Kingdom and the European Union. As long as this was cut off, the so-called cooperation would naturally not be able to continue.
As soon as he finished speaking, his words angered everyone in the hotel lobby.
As a human, he could choose not to support the construction of a spaceship and the plan to escape from the blue planet before the black tide to leave behind the seeds of humanity.
However, it was unforgivable that he was working for the unknown existences from the otherworld or the black tide, and turning into their claws to destroy the humans’ plan.
They were the enemy of all mankind, and the humans had the right to kill him.
“What does the Ice Valley want? Or what does the existence behind the Ice Valley want?”
Chen Yiming stared at the four of them. If they made any abnormal movements, he would kill them on the spot.
At the same time, he suddenly thought of something. Could it be that the black tide had arrived recently, so all kinds of demons and ghosts had appeared? All kinds of tricks were appearing in different forms, but their ultimate goal would be the same.
At the thought of this, his expression darkened, and a sense of urgency weighed down on his heart.
“There are many talents in the Ice Valley, and we also hope to join the space plan,” Marek said calmly with a smile.
Chen Yiming didn’t object immediately and decided to question them instead. After all, they had achieved their goal of displaying their strength and were sure that the space plan wouldn’t suffer any setbacks from their actions.
“Tell me, what can you offer?”
Chen Yiming smiled, giving the impression that there was room for negotiation.
Everyone in the hotel lobby, including Wang Ronghui, was worried for Chen Yiming. At the same time, they hated the four people from the Ice Valley with every fiber of their being.
They were taking the opportunity to put a knife to the throat of the space plan. Relying on the powerful martial arts power provided by the unknown existence behind them, they might do something earth-shattering if they did not agree to it.
The people and supplies on the 10 transport planes were in danger.
Marek grinned, but didn’t answer.
A middle-aged blue-haired man beside him took a step forward and said, “My name is Sheffield. If anyone is paying attention to the aerospace industry, they should have heard of my name before.”
