Chapter 500: Chapter 298: Exploration and Sensory Recovery_2
He didn’t hesitate for a moment and quickly rushed towards the center of the explosion.
The closer he got, the hotter the surrounding temperature became.
The black hair on Li Wuji’s forehead had even started to carbonize and twist.
Although the temperature was not enough to affect his actions, it made him very uncomfortable.
But his speed of approach showed no sign of slowing down.
Soon,
he arrived at the center of the battlefield.
With a soft sound,
Li Wuji stepped on the scorched earth.
Immediately after,
a sizzling sound of burning came from the bottom of his foot.
It was the sound of the soles of his shoes being corroded by the high temperature.
But Li Wuji didn’t care.
He just looked around cautiously.
Quickly,
a figure appeared in sight.
It was Chen Sheng in his divine form.
Numerous intertwined patterns covered his body.
Of these, patterns of scarlet and deep blue colors were the most prominent.
He sat quietly in the center of the explosion.
Breathing smoothly, his life signs were completely intact.
No matter how he looked, it didn’t seem like he’d been through a battle.
Uh?
A trace of doubt flashed across Li Wuji’s face.
His eyes searched around.
Immediately after,
his expression turned to surprise.
Because in the surrounding area, aside from Chen Sheng, there was no one else.
Where was the enemy?
Had Chen Sheng already dealt with them?
Indeed,
in Li Wuji’s perception,
he did not find any signs of life or any power fluctuations other than Chen Sheng’s.
What on earth was…
Just as he was puzzled,
“What’s going on?”
Chen Sheng’s voice suddenly sounded.
Li Wuji subconsciously looked up towards the source of the sound.
!!!
It was like a sword blade directly approaching his eyes.
Li Wuji’s body hair stood on end in an instant.
A strong sense of threat filled his body, making him feel as if he was being watched by some terrifying existence.
At this moment,
Chen Sheng, who was sitting cross-legged, had his head facing Li Wuji’s direction.
Those originally pure white eyes,
now,
reflected Li Wuji’s figure within the black pupils.
The gaze that made Li Wuji’s hair stand on end,
came from Chen Sheng.
“Chen Sheng, you—”
“Have you recovered?”
His heart suddenly accelerated, pounding uncontrollably.
Li Wuji’s face showed surprise.
As the former holder of the authority of the heart’s power,
or even as the person who stole this power from the Heavenly Person.
He deeply knew how terrifying the power of the heart’s authority was.
He also knew how strong the Heavenly Person was when controlling this power.
Though Chen Sheng had told him before that he would try to remove his sensory restrictions before the Heavenly Person’s awakening,
Li Wuji was actually pessimistic at that time.
He didn’t think that the restriction set by the Heavenly Person would be so easy to break.
Even for Chen Sheng.
But in the present situation,
had Chen Sheng actually recovered his sensory abilities?
How long had it been since they were in Kyoto? A week?
How far Chen Sheng’s strength had risen during this week, that he could break the restriction set by the Heavenly Person directly?
Li Wuji couldn’t quite imagine it.
At his level, he couldn’t actually feel any difference between Chen Sheng’s attributes being 400,000 or 1.2 million.
Like for an ant,
no matter if it was a young man or a world boxing champion,
both were beings that could crush it by stomping.
“Yes.”
In response to Li Wuji’s question,
Chen Sheng nodded lightly.
Previously,
after sensing the barrier enveloping his body,
what he had done,
was to gather his strength and throw a punch.
As the punch was swung,
with the power bursting,
Chen Sheng instantly felt the barrier covering him was blown apart.
What followed,
was the recovery of his senses.
After a week,
hearing, smell, taste, and vision,
as well as the ability to communicate with the spirit of the Authority and Xiao Hei,
all returned.
It was only at that moment,
that Chen Sheng’s accumulated frustrations over the past few days were finally swept away.
The Heavenly Person,
was no longer an insurmountable opponent for him.
He had every reason to believe,
as long as he continued to grow stronger at this rate,
he would definitely crush the Heavenly Person who had sealed his senses that day to death.
When the Heavenly Person awakens,
Chen Sheng didn’t want to see a scene of humans confronting the Heavenly Person and struggling to resist.
That situation was too boring and too pointless.
What he wanted,
was for him, Chen Sheng, alone, to hunt down the Heavenly Person.
He wanted the Heavenly People to live on in desperation and run away to save their lives.
Then,
Die in despair.
Otherwise,
It would be unfair to the hard work he put in along the way.
“So that’s what the noise just now was…”
At this moment.
Li Wuji’s voice sounded.
Pulling Chen Sheng back from his thoughts.
He looked at the other person.
On that face that was no longer old nor familiar,
Wore a familiar expression.
Chen Sheng remembered.
Every time he displayed his improved Strength, the other party always had this expression.
Li Wuji recounted his discovery of the earthquake in Kyoto and the process of rushing over.
Listening to it, Chen Sheng was quite astonished.
He had originally thought that his punch would only affect the surroundings for several kilometers.
But he didn’t expect that even Kyoto would be affected by an earthquake.
“Yes.”
“I just made some progress.”
“So I wanted to test it out.”
“How’s the situation in Kyoto? Nothing serious, right?”
Hearing this,
Li Wuji finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried that the Heavenly Person had awakened ahead of schedule.
But now,
Knowing that the earlier earthquake was just because Chen Sheng was testing his skills,
Although still shocked,
His hanging heart finally settled down.
“That’s good, that’s good,”
He muttered softly.
Then he looked up at Chen Sheng again.
“Don’t worry, it’s just some commotion. I’ll calm things down as soon as possible.”
“Since it’s not an enemy appearing, I’ll return to Kyoto first.”
Hearing this,
Chen Sheng knew that the incident was caused by him and didn’t say much.
He just nodded slightly.
Li Wuji didn’t delay anymore and turned around to leave.
But after taking just two steps, he stopped abruptly.
He looked back at Chen Sheng.
“Tomorrow, there will be an international conference in Kyoto.”
“Some Transcendents from other countries will be attending. Are you interested?”
He asked this question because he thought Chen Sheng might be interested in seeing other cultivation methods.
Besides,
If Chen Sheng were present,
Li Wuji felt that maybe the conference could avoid many unnecessary factors.
However,
Sun Yihe had asked Chen Sheng this question a few days ago.
His answer remained the same as before.
“No, thank you.”
“With that time, I’d rather focus on my training.”
When the Seed of Desire falls tomorrow,
Chen Sheng’s basic attributes will undergo a leap.
This also means that his Strength will double again when he’s fully charged, reaching a terrifying level of over two million.
Chen Sheng doesn’t know if such power would be enough to crush the Heavenly Person.
But he doesn’t plan to be complacent.
He aims to reach ten million or even more attributes before the Heavenly Person wakes up.
Only that way,
Can he feel a little at ease.
Having said that,
Chen Sheng changed the subject.
“As for Old Zhou, please take him to treat his injuries.”
Even without sensing it,
Chen Sheng could guess that Zhou Li must have been injured by his test move.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take him back to Kyoto.”
“You focus on your cultivation.”
“If you need anything, feel free to contact me or Old Sun.”
Li Wuji agreed.
He didn’t insist on Chen Sheng’s refusal.
He just nodded slightly,
And his figure turned into a beam of light, shooting straight into the skyline.
Not long after he left,
Chen Sheng also returned to Yihe Gate.
Shen Ziming and the other Yihe Gate disciples had not returned for many days.
Chen Sheng roughly guessed that Sun Yihe must have decided to leave the Yihe Gate to him for training and asked the disciples not to return for the time being.
Now that Zhou Li has returned to Kyoto,
The vast Yihe Gate headquarters was left with only Chen Sheng.
Fortunately, he was already used to it.
At the top of the hill,
Chen Sheng had already returned to his normal size.
The Desire Lines, originally suppressed by the scarlet and azure hues, lit up once more.
The Strength of his body was rapidly flowing into these Seeds of Desire.
Based on the current speed estimate,
It was predicted that the Seed of Desire would be born again at noon tomorrow.
Next,
What Chen Sheng had to do was to adjust his body to the best condition while waiting with peace of mind.
With that thought,
He sat cross-legged,
His body quickly shrank, entering the Withered State.
The silence returned to the Yihe Gate.
Time passed, little by little.
The moonlight gradually faded.
It seemed like a long time had passed,
And it seemed like the blink of an eye.
As dawn broke on the horizon,
The darkness was completely dispelled.
And time,
Arrived at the next day.
