Master of Ten Thousand Foxes
Chapter 433 - 247: Primordial Immortal Qi Investment of Immortal Martial. Farewell to the Family Compound
Wu Qingyun was called back to Shangjing to ascend to Sequence Seven under her grandfather’s guidance?
Bai Mo sat behind the desk, furrowing his brow, lost in thought for a moment.
"Oh, oh!"
He nodded in agreement.
In fact, he felt that if Wu Qingyun remained in West State to ascend, he could watch over her and perhaps it would be even better?
But she had already left, by now she must have arrived in Shangjing, secretly arranged somewhere, beginning her ascension preparations... Bai Mo looked in the direction of Shangjing, silently sending his blessings.
Would she return to West State after her successful ascension?
Is there still a chance to meet again in the future?
Fang Xiaoyu also felt a bit lonely.
"I haven’t received any replies from her messages.
"Previously, Professor Zhang said they would send a new bodyguard to our office."
Just as the words fell, there was a knock at the door.
The person who entered was tall and skinny, with fine black hair, revealing himself to be Tian Xinghuo!
"Expert Bai Mo, I’m here to temporarily serve as your bodyguard for a while."
Him?
That seems to make sense.
After all, being Sequence Seven, his strength is strong enough.
Bai Mo stood up, walked out from behind the desk, just about to exchange a few words, but saw Tian Xinghuo’s face was cold and he just walked into the office, sitting behind Wu Qingyun’s desk.
Is he feeling wronged being a bodyguard?
Is he unhappy?
Bai Mo’s expression was peculiar, Fang Xiaoyu frowned, Sun Tail squinted his fox-like eyes, just as he was about to ask more... suddenly, they sensed something strange.
It wasn’t that Tian Xinghuo was unhappy... his face was paralyzed!
The same facial paralysis as Wu Qingyun!
No emotions, no expressions, dull eyes.
What does this mean?
Wu Qingyun left and a male version of Wu Qingyun came back?
Then Tian Xinghuo raised his head, expressionless, and explained.
"I cultivated a special Immortal Technique, resulting in emotional coldness, hope you understand."
After speaking, he lowered his head, staring blankly at the desk.
The office atmosphere was somewhat strange.
Everyone returned to their positions, each busy with their own tasks.
Sun Tail and Fang Xiaoyu huddled together, wearing headphones, continued watching videos.
Bai Mo, browsing through the expert database, moved by heart thought, but his Divine Sense spread out like a gentle breeze, wafting through the room, brushing over Tian Xinghuo’s fine black hair, seeping into his scalp and skull, exploring carefully.
"Huh?"
Tian Xinghuo’s tender cerebral cortex had grown a red-black blood scab!
Has he been hit?
Bai Mo’s face was expressionless but his heart was puzzled.
This blood scab on Tian Xinghuo is different from before... it’s very exquisite, with subtle grooves and ridges on the surface, faintly sketching out symbols of Immortal Martial. The overall shape of the blood scab is a cross, with its four branches reaching the pituitary at the front, the small brain at the back, and drooping to the cochlea on both sides, appearing strange and eerie.
What exactly is this?
Can the Brain-eating Vine be removed?
Could Wu Qingyun’s paralyzed face also be due to this?
Bai Mo’s eyes focused on the computer screen, his hand slowly scrolling the mouse wheel, seemingly flipping through a paper. In fact, he was thinking rapidly, trying to analyze and understand what was in Tian Xinghuo’s head.
Research on the Alchemy Path focused more on plants, with only a shallow exploration of the human body.
At this moment, Bai Mo was reading, guessing, and connecting it with previous experiences of studying mushroom-headed people and the brain.
After a long time, he finally understood...
"... This thing is indeed different from the previous cerebral cortex blood scabs.
"This is a new equipment installed on his brain, consuming Primordial Immortal Qi by the Ancient Immortal?
"This new equipment would continuously absorb his emotions and feelings, transforming these things into... Primordial Immortal Qi?"
It seemed like an investment too.
The cross-shaped blood scab in his brain, made by consuming Primordial Immortal Qi, was an investment by the Ancient Immortal.
The Primordial Immortal Qi transformed from his emotions and feelings was a return to the Ancient Immortal.
"Why would the Ancient Immortal want to create such a thing?
"How much yield can this thing produce in a day?
"Negligible.
"High investment, low return.
"To wait for a return, who knows how long it would take?"
What Bai Mo did not know was, the Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal installed this on Tian Xinghuo out of desperation... The knowledge container of the Black Sparrow Ancient Immortal was shattered, and the only remaining Primordial Immortal Qi with a brain attribute couldn’t be preserved, it had to be used up quickly!
Bai Mo closed the paper he had on hand and opened a new one.
The Divine Sense perceived, Tian Xinghuo was chatting on WeChat, and the person on the other end was Professor Zhang.
[Are you sure you don’t need an expert consultation?]
[We have a good chance, perhaps we can help you remove that thing!]
Tian Xinghuo quickly replied.
[No need!]
[This is not an ordinary blood scab, it is very costly!]
[It brings more than just harm to me.]
[After absorbing emotions, I became calmer, more focused, smarter]
[My speed of acquiring knowledge will increase]
[My decisions and reactions in battles will also be faster and more accurate]
[Keep it!]
[Regardless of my relationship with the Ancient Immortal Master or for the battles the committee might face next]
[Keep it!]
[This is my most calm attitude, rationally considered conclusion]
Beside him, Bai Mo quietly clicked his tongue.
This guy... truly has become much more calm and rational.
When previously demanding the Buffalo Car, this guy was reckless like a fool, doing things without considering consequences. Now, the cross blood scab grows in his head, embedded in his flesh, drawing his blood, and he can still calmly and rationally analyze?
Only can say, the Ancient Immortal’s cross blood scab, indeed worked!
