Chapter 49 The Position of Minor Supernatural Power
Chapter 49 The Position of Minor Supernatural Power
"Tell me, what information do you have?"
A few seconds later, the computer screen lit up, and an elderly man with white hair, wearing a bathrobe, appeared before Schneider, his eyes burning with fervor.
Schneider nodded, pulled up the energy data they had detected on the computer, sent it to Angran, and spoke.
"This is the energy signal we detected the night before last. Although it was only for a moment, the extremely high energy density triggered a large amount of elemental turbulence, which even covered the entire Kunshan City."
"Elemental turbulence covering an entire city? That basically confirms it was the work of the dragons."
Angers raised an eyebrow. He was also an outstanding graduate of Kassel College, and his research on dragons had only increased over the years. Naturally, he knew what elemental turbulence capable of disrupting a city-sized area represented.
“No,” Schneider shook his head and retorted, “it’s not just a problem with dragons. Look closely at this picture.”
He looked up at the test image on the screen.
On the screen, the turbulent elements of the entire map resemble clouds on the horizon, but instead of being flat, they spread outwards.
As Angers looked at it, it seemed familiar. He had served in the U.S. Navy, and the image looked somewhat similar to the oceanographic survey map he had seen before.
Like... a sensor image after a torpedo explosion?
Thinking of this, his brows furrowed immediately. Combining this with Schneider's words, he knew what Schneider wanted to say!
Schneider then revealed the answer, his expression equally solemn, as if he had seen something impossible.
"This elemental turbulence was not caused by the dragons."
.................
Far away on the other side of China.
Lu Mingfei had no idea that someone was worried about what he had done.
He had just come out of the private room owned by the Zhou family, with alchemical materials about conceptual weaponry in his pocket.
To be fair, if we ignore the previous threats, Nuwa is quite decisive and efficient in her actions.
With just a command from her, the documents appeared in his hands, still warm.
The entire process took almost no more than three minutes.
It happened so fast that he almost suspected that this thing had been prepared in advance.
We're just waiting for the right moment to send it out.
After receiving the information, he didn't linger.
He needed to find a secluded place to properly digest the essence he had obtained from the dragon the night before; one day was not enough for him to fully digest it.
Although Lu Mingfei did not get close at the time, the Borrowing Treasure Technique was indeed a top-tier technique of the Three Truths Sect.
Even from such a great distance, after the dragon lost its resistance, he remotely "borrowed" most of its essence from a distance.
As for why it's "most of"?
Then we have to ask why that dragon's body wasn't stronger and could have lasted longer.
Lu Mingfei felt deep regret about this, not for the life of the dragon, but for the wasted part of the dragon's essence.
This is truly a top-quality piece of jade.
Clutching the documents, the young man returned to the hotel with light steps.
The door clicked shut behind him, cutting off the light and sound from the corridor. He walked straight to the center of the room, sat cross-legged on the carpet, and closed his eyes to concentrate.
It's time to continue digesting that borrowed source.
It's called digestion, but it's more like feeding.
Using the primordial energy as fodder to feed the hungry supernatural powers, Lu Mingfei only needed to release the magic power that enveloped the primordial energy, allowing the two supernatural powers within his body to seize it on their own.
The moment the energy gained its freedom, it was like oil dripped into boiling water, instantly locked onto, torn apart, and devoured by two greedy mouths.
The World Tree was the most eager to grab the food and ate the most.
Looking at this scene, Lu Mingfei felt like the mother bird in the storybook, bringing insects from outside and feeding them one by one mouth-to-mouth.
The chicks scrambled and chirped, fighting over the food. After feeding them for a while, they discovered that the one that fought the most fiercely and was the fattest... wasn't their own offspring at all.
Holy crap.
This is so déjà vu!
That being said, Lu Mingfei didn't have many thoughts about it, after all, they weren't really 'baby birds'.
Rather than saying the World Tree was fiercely competing, it's more accurate to say that the Flame Divine Power itself was rather "picky." It didn't seem to need that much primordial energy, and was more like selectively consuming its resources.
This time, Lu Mingfei did not miss any details of the devouring process.
Last time, the Dragon Blood Monkey's essence was mostly swallowed up by the Flame Divine Power, which he didn't notice, but now everything is happening under his clear perception.
He could feel the World Tree extending its invisible tentacles, reaching into the primordial energy to take root and absorb it. Most of what it absorbed was the bloodline essence carrying the spirit of that dragon; the other energies seemed to come along incidentally.
The Flame Divine Power, on the other hand, didn't touch it at all, but simply slowly devoured the pure energy.
As for why the Flame Divine Power swallowed most of the Dragon Blood Monkey's essence last time.
Lu Mingfei has figured it out now.
The thin and mixed energy of the dragon-blooded creatures is not even in the same league as the pure dragon origin before us.
The former contains a negligible amount of the dragon spirit, while the latter is as rich and substantial as a substance.
The Flame Divine Power only absorbs pure energy, and disregards the bloodline origins that carry the spiritual power of the dragon race.
No wonder he only had a small amount of energy left from the last source energy; he thought he had absorbed it too slowly and hadn't finished absorbing it.
So you're just a picky eater.
"Huh? What's this...?"
As the flame divine power stirred, Lu Mingfei focused his mind and carefully sensed it.
A force emanated from the fire, which he sensed was rushing towards a certain part of his body.
Before he could even wonder, the energy struck that spot, and his spirits began to lift.
This feeling...is it an acupoint?
Is this flame-based supernatural power helping him open his acupoints and aiding his cultivation?!
The Dharma acupoints are the foundation of a seeker's magical power and a key benchmark for measuring the progress of cultivation.
There are 103 acupoints in the body of a seeker of the Dharma, the location of which varies from person to person. Opening and connecting all the acupoints, like digging a well, is the only way for a seeker to embark on the path of the Dharma.
Lu Mingfei is still struggling at this stage, even though his current offensive capabilities have reached the level of minor supernatural powers.
For an outlier like him, realm is not a standard for measuring combat power.
Without time to think it through, Lu Mingfei immediately focused his mind and entered a state of cultivation.
Following the faintly illuminated path of the Flame Divine Power within his body, he began to guide that pure and scorching energy toward the first acupoint.
Time flowed silently. Thanks to the vastness and purity of the dragon race's primordial energy, the power supplied by the fire magic was almost inexhaustible.
With fully automated navigation, the remaining process of opening the acupoints went more smoothly than expected.
Ninety-four, ninety-five... one hundred and three acupoints—in just a few hours, all the acupoints were connected.
"This feeling..."
After completing all of this, Lu Mingfei felt as if he had just had a massage, and his whole body felt light and airy.
With all 103 acupoints interconnected, even though he could only freely use less than half of them, his total magical power had more than doubled compared to before.
More importantly... he has now touched upon, or rather, successfully broken through, the barrier.
Everything seemed to fall into place naturally.
Achieve the rank of Minor Supernatural Power!
