Chapter 385: Chapter 385 Shadowy Heaven King Suddenly, a seven-colored light appeared in the Snow Turtle’s eyes, layer upon layer, then a white light floated all over its body. Within the white light, a human figure appeared. It seemed entirely intangible, just a mere shadow. Encountering this white light, the shadow twisted wildly, like a snowman meeting boiling water, and retreated. Though the shadow had no facial expression, this sudden retreat showed how panicked it was. Yixiang was also shocked, and a glass container in her hand slipped and fell... This was the complete process of the attack on Yixiang. Fully recorded by the high-definition surveillance in the laboratory. This was also the only image left by the mysterious killer. In ordinary circumstances, he is completely invisible. Only under the Snow Turtle’s white light does he appear. Even when appearing, he looks nothing like a real person, more like a shadow of the Primordial Spirit. Lin Xiaosu’s heart pounded, unable to make sense of the situation. Primordial Spirit’s shadow? Impossible! No one in this world has reached the second layer of Enlightenment Realm: comprehension of the Primordial Spirit. Not even the top leader of Kun Cang, who is considered an immortal, could achieve this. In the secular world, theoretically, this doesn’t exist. If it did, it absolutely shouldn’t be just a Heavenly King of Nine Headed Snake. Besides, the way the Primordial Spirit travels through the heavens and earth and kills, how profound? If it truly were the Primordial Spirit traveling heaven and earth, not to mention someone like the Genetic Person Blue Demon, even Lin Xiaosu would be easily erased, surely not to be killed but live. In reality, this intangible shadow alone isn’t enough to erase Blue Demon’s consciousness. This shows that it isn’t particularly powerful. It seems capable of exhibiting the peculiarities of the Primordial Spirit traveling, yet lacks the true power of the Primordial Spirit. There is only one possibility that this is some special kind of gene. Genes have three realms: sprout, awakening, and nirvana. Shadowy Heaven King has existed for many years, before the concept of Nirvana. He can only be an Awakener. Perhaps the genes of organisms are so wondrous, awakening certain non-Primordial Spirit, yet miraculous abilities resembling Primordial Spirit... For a moment Lin Xiaosu’s thoughts drifted far away. Blue Demon looked toward him: "Shadowy Heaven King comes unseen, goes traceless; according to Qianlong’s past records, no one has ever seen him, so our understanding is practically a blank slate. I sincerely hope your detective skills can reach an extraordinary realm and find this person for a lethal strike! If he doesn’t die, the Soul Gu strategy can’t be executed in fact!" Shadowy Heaven King’s sudden appearance. On one hand poses a fatal threat to the Qianlong Gold Medal’s execution of the Life Soul Gu plan. On the other hand, it indirectly hinders the Life Soul Gu grand strategy. The atmosphere Qianlong worked hard to create of "gaining new life upon arriving in Jiangcheng" was disrupted by Shadowy Heaven King. Shadowy Heaven King crafted the reverse—"coming to Jiangcheng means certain death!" How should those dreaming of rebirth think? Not going to Jiangcheng might mean survival, but arriving means death! Why would they still go? If one thinks this way, another thinks this way, everyone thinks this way, and the Life Soul Gu grand strategy collapses. This seems like a Heavenly King problem. Actually, this is the deep-water zone of the standoff between Nine Headed Snake and Qianlong. Lin Xiaosu lifted his gaze: "Has Qianlong been confronting Nine Headed Snake for so many years without any Heavenly King able to restrain Shadowy Heaven King?" "In terms of combat prowess alone, I’m relatively weak among the Heavenly King team, Shadowy’s spiritual power attacks can’t kill me, thus he poses no significant substantial threat to the Heavenly King team, but to restrain him can’t be solved purely by combat power." Blue Demon answered truthfully. "What about Jing Lei? This so-called super Heavenly King whose thunder settles the world, can’t deal with Shadowy Heaven?" Blue Demon said: "Jing Lei is currently in the Middle East, where another Nirvana has emerged. Apart from him, no one can face it, so he cannot attend to Jiangcheng." Lin Xiaosu nodded lightly: "I understand the situation! Seems like I have to test my limits." Blue Demon’s eyes flashed with determination: "How do you plan to start?" "Here’s the plan, circulate a message externally, tonight at ten, welcoming a batch of important people, stakes are high, the entire training center, everyone, must ensure flawless execution!" Blue Demon frowned slightly: "This group of people, are they real or fake?" "Don’t underestimate the opponent’s intelligence gathering capabilities, to lure him here, it must be real." "This... this is very risky!" Blue Demon said. "Risky indeed, but necessary!" Lin Xiaosu said: "For the arriving group, prepare Yixiang’s sachets in advance to prevent the harm of ’Soul Summoning Incense’." "We’ve been doing that for a while, key figures, before entering Jiangcheng, we set meeting locations and equip sachets." Blue Demon said: "But we can only prevent the Soul Summoning Incense from activating the Life Soul Gu, yet can’t avoid the unseen spiritual power harm. And if he uses spiritual power to annihilate this group, people outside will still believe Life Soul Gu killed them, the negative impact remains." "Leave spiritual power to me!" Blue Demon stared at him for a long time: "Spiritual power... spiritual power resistance, how strong are you?" "Why? Worried I’ll be gone?" Blue Demon’s eyes turned even more complex, glared at him: "Isn’t that obvious?" "If I am gone, is there any compensation? How much?" "Your joke is not funny at all..." Blue Demon was speechless. "Relax!" Lin Xiaosu patted her shoulder: "You need to understand what spiritual power is, it’s closely related to intelligence, I’m super smart, won’t spiritual power be... resistant? That damned Shadowy Heaven King dreaming of using spiritual power to erase me, that’s just dreaming of marrying a bride!" "That’s..." Before Blue Demon could finish her sentence, the reception room door suddenly swung open. Yixiang rushed in, calling "Brother," her voice full of emotions. But upon uttering it, she suddenly paused. Even though her heart was agitated, even though she had spent half a month working elsewhere, missing her brother every day, she couldn’t overcome her inner shyness. There are outsiders present... Blue Demon smiled slightly, "I’ll go make arrangements!" She walked out the door. The door closed. Yixiang sprang up and threw herself into Lin Xiaosu’s embrace. The bag hanging from her hand, the Snow Turtle poked its head out and gave Lin Xiaosu a disdainful look before withdrawing its head. "Little darling, did you miss me?" "Mm!" After responding, Yixiang felt a bit shy and quickly added, "Apart from Sister Blue Demon, I don’t know anyone here." "No one bullied you, right?" "Who would dare? Sister Blue Demon is looking after me. The food, drinks, accommodations, are all the best... Brother, are you back home?" "Yes." "Are your parents well?" "Very well..." Lin Xiaosu replied, "I heard from Blue Demon that you’ve been busy in the lab?" "Yes, my father always had a wish to see if modern gene technology could be fused with our Miao Family’s ancestral Gu techniques. He couldn’t realize it, so I want to give it a try..." Listening to her words, smelling the fresh scent of her hair, Lin Xiaosu felt a slight ripple in his heart. Her father, the Witch God of his generation in Miaojiang, inheriting the most ancient Gu techniques from their ancestors, had such an insight? Gu techniques, the ancient genetic transformation. Genes, the modern Gu technique. The two are actually connected. Both focus on the organism itself, combining genes to create powers and abilities beyond ordinary people. This theory is quite profound. That generation’s Witch God, who died young, couldn’t turn the great theory into reality. The new generation Witch God walked the path her father had explored halfway. Originally Yixiang wouldn’t have had this opportunity. Which modern genetic modification giant would trust ancient Gu techniques? But time makes heroes, and time also changes destinies. Yixiang, as a key part of the Life Soul Gu grand strategy, took her position at Changsheng Group. To say there’s work, there really isn’t much; she just receives those afflicted by Gu, lets the Snow Turtle come out, suck out the Gu worm, and eliminate the Gu curse. But now, she holds the emperor’s sword. She can enter the lab, and use various experimental materials to validate her fusion of ancient Gu and genetic technology. This is why she is so busy. Lin Xiaosu smiled, "So you’ll probably never want to return to the Miao Village again." "I’ll definitely have to go back!" Yixiang said, "Chairman Ding also said he plans to invest in building a base over there in Miaojiang. He’s quite interested in Gu techniques. I never imagined that a chairman of such a big corporation would have such a high understanding of genes and Gu techniques." "Chairman Ding? Ding Lizhong?" Lin Xiaosu was taken aback. "Yeah, brother, didn’t you know? Changsheng Group has a new chairman; Chairman Ding replaced the former Chairman Lei. I heard that there are big problems with this Chairman Lei." Lin Xiaosu could only sigh inwardly. A butterfly flaps its wings, and a tornado is stirred up on the western coast of the ocean. It seems he, this little butterfly, is fated to be tangled with Changsheng Group. Because of him, Changsheng Group has already changed chairmen twice. Ding Lizhong, a pure bookworm born for science, actually climbed to the position of chairman. Based on his understanding of him, this chairman might also be one who doesn’t stay in the office for long periods. Ding Lizhong’s support for Changsheng Group to build a base in Miaojiang is entirely understandable. Yixiang can’t understand how a chairman could know so much professional knowledge; it’s because she lacks understanding of Ding Lizhong, whose professional expertise is beyond her imagination. This old guy’s unconventional approach to technology and technological insight are also one of the world’s wonders. The daytime was thus spent. At night, the real show began. Inside the training center, in front of the flight platform, more than ten people stood solemnly. They were fully prepared. Most of these ten people are robots. Only two are real people. Lin Xiaosu and Blue Demon. Against such a formidable enemy, more people are not advantageous; on the contrary, more people are a shackle. How precious is a Qianlong Gold Medal? Purely from a resource perspective, training a Qianlong Gold Medal is almost equivalent to the value of gold in weight. Losing one is a huge loss. And in front of someone like the Shadowy Heaven King, Gold Medals are like lives as cheap as grass. So, they were replaced by robots. After all, they are not the main force of the assault. The ones truly bearing the brunt of the assault are Blue Demon and Lin Xiaosu. Blue Demon truly did not feel confident inside. The night wind blew, and her heart drummed with fear. A glance from Lin Xiaosu shot over, giving her great confidence because that glance was calm and serene.
