Chapter 265: Chapter 243 Ascension Sect l
What?
Just when surprise furrowed Chen Mobai’s brow, a dark, long shadow, akin to a spirit snake, shot out from Yang Jing’s open mouth.
A blazing, scorching energy erupted, and a strand of purple flame rose from Chen Mobai’s palm. It incinerated the dark shadow, but the invisible divine consciousness residing within it penetrated through the Purple Fire Sword Aura and infiltrated Chen Mobai’s Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion.
Divine Consciousness Forming!
Has Yang Jing reached the foundation establishment stage?
Chen Mobai frowned at this unanticipated development but, as this pertained to his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion, he remained vigilant and decided to meditate immediately to investigate.
Meanwhile, the extremely quiet Yang Jing was now widely gaping, her eyes sparkling with a beastly, sinister glow as she laughed chillingly and lunged at Chen Mobai.
“What is going on? Is there a problem with the seal?”
At this moment, Kong Feichen, who was observing this scene from the side, wanted frantically to intervene.
“Could it be, that guy was telling the truth?”
While he muttered to himself, a sharp snap was heard.
Mysterious cyan lights peeked out from under the sleeve of Chen Mobai’s right arm, then suddenly shot out in the blink of an eye, turning into small, finely shattered cyan scales, constricting the hands and feet of both Kong Feichen and Yang Jing, rendering them suspended in mid-air.
“Until I figure out what the situation is, the two of you stay still for me.”
Having said that, Chen Mobai sat on the couch and closed his eyes.
He immediately plunged his mind into the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion.
Next, he saw a Shadow Snake coiled around his split-off Divine Consciousness in the form of the Green Paulownia Seedling—the snake’s two blood-red eyes flickering with unconscious chaos.
Without saying, Chen Mobai drove his Divine Consciousness to directly crush the Shadow Snake.
If it were about spiritual power, he still had deficiencies since he only established his foundation half a year ago and was still recovering from a pill toxicosis.
However, his Divine Sense was his strongest fortification.
The firm foundation laid by the Nourishing Thought Forge God Technique, his self-created Pain-Free Diverging Divine Consciousness, plus his recently refined Green Heart broadening his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion by more than twice its original size.
Purely in terms of Divine Consciousness, he was already among the top cultivators at the early foundation stage. Even compared to middle-stage cultivators who only improve their Divine Consciousness through raising their cultivation levels without any specific training, he was not inferior.
After his Divine Consciousness, transformed into the Green Paulownia Seedling, tore the Shadow Snake into shreds, Chen Mobai carefully inspected his Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion one more time. After he confirmed there were no threats, he finally opened his eyes with ease.
“What the hell are you trying to do?”
Kong Feichen, who was suspended mid-air by the Green Scale Arm Guard, was still fiercely struggling.
He was wide-eyed, trying to call forth his Wind Spiritual Power to cut off the bonds that constrained his hands and legs. However, the power of a rank-2 Magic Artifact wasn’t something he, a mere Qi Practitioner, could break free from.
As soon as he attempted to release his spiritual power from his body, it would be immediately crushed by a magical scale, preventing him from forming his Wind Blade technique.
On the other hand, Yang Jing, who was initially opening her mouth and squirming, slumped abruptly, fainting immediately as the Shadow Snake was shattered.
“Stay quiet.”
Chen Mobai snapped his fingers, and five cyan scales flew out, adhering to Kong Feichen’s lips and dropping him gently on the floor to alleviate his discomfort.
Then, bending his finger, he made the cyan scales on the unconscious Yang Jing’s limbs to light up. Guiding her with his spiritual power, she flew over and landed on the couch.
Looking at the unconscious girl breathing evenly in her sleep, Chen Mobai reached out his fingers, touching her forehead.
A golden diamond-shaped mark lit up, representing the seal he had just set—it was successful.
“Wuu wuu wuu!”
Kong Feichen was still struggling on the floor. Chen Mobai found it annoying, so with a wave of his left hand, a dozen golden needles flew out from his sleeve.
The golden light shimmered, and the chilling needle points pressed against Kong Feichen’s skin, causing goosebumps to rise all over his body.
He stopped moving abruptly.
“Qing Nu is refining the Clear Eyesight Bamboo Spirit Dew, I won’t call her now, to avoid distracting her.”
Having said this, Chen Mobai pulled his finger off Yang Jing’s forehead, then rose to his feet and headed for the balcony.
He took out his phone, hesitated with a frown, but finally sent a text message to Lan Haitian.
“Although it’s unlike what you predicted, something unexpected indeed happened.”
Beep beep beep, a message arrived immediately in reply.
“Can you explain in detail?”
“It’s not very convenient right now, let’s meet somewhere tonight.”
“Let’s meet where we first met then, I’ll wait for you.”
“Fine.”
After they made an appointment, Chen Mobai remembered what Lan Haitian had told him on the bus.
Yang Jing’s foster parents were once part of a heretical cult. Gu Changfeng in his youth was also a follower of this cult.
Furthermore, the fact that Qing Nu, Kong Feichen, and Yang Jing, three individuals with extraordinary Spiritual Root Aptitude, were in the same orphanage is clearly suspicious.

However, Lan Haitian investigated the orphanage but found no irregularities.
Standing on the balcony, Chen Mobai pondered over every bit of information. Finally he realized, the exposed problem lay with Yang Jing.
Her foster parents had her Practice Forbidden Techniques, but it was discovered by a Law Enforcement Cultivator.
Then Gu Changfeng appeared, took on Qing Nu as a disciple and, consequentially, put the seal on Yang Jing’s second personality “Snake”.
Furthermore, for the years that passed, it was Gu Changfeng who reinforced Yang Jing’s seal until he himself was also suspected of practicing forbidden techniques and arrested by Lan Haitian..
