Chapter 670: Chapter 304: Ancient Treasure_2

"You’ve done really well, Xiao Fu."

Fu Jian shook his head, ignoring the patronizing Wang Jixuan, and turned back to his own workbench.

Master Wang gently raised an eyebrow and picked up the communicator to start replying to the backlog of messages.

The messages were mostly from Lingtong.

She was unable to participate in this war, and understandably had some grievances, which the Daoist could only carefully soothe.

There was no other way, as the root of Lingtong’s overprotection was himself.

...

Near the Spiritual Ability City, in a building set into the cliff.

Meng Jin sat in a chair, watching the continuously falling snow outside, gazing absently at the endless snowy plains.

He looked like he had aged ten years in this period, his face pale, covered with sensors, his eyes somewhat dazed.

Meng Jin attempted to lift his right hand, but his right arm trembled continuously.

He was ruined.

In every aspect.

Though his spiritual energy still existed, it had diminished by more than half, with the muscle fibers throughout his body seemingly deprived of vitality.

The once celebrated leader of the Spirit Management Committee’s Court had now become a cripple.

Meng Jin had considered suicide;

But unfortunately, he was surrounded by surveillance, making it impossible for him to end his life.

The elevator to the penthouse suite opened, and an elderly man in traditional Chinese clothing entered with his hands behind his back, followed by three charming young nurses.

The elderly man gestured with a raised hand, and the three female nurses went to a nearby room to arrange their luggage.

They were here on a mission;

As long as they could help the injured young man here recover, they would be rewarded with a prosperous and stable life.

Meng Jin turned to look over and said quietly, "Elder Feng, let them go. I’m not interested."

"I chose them specifically according to your preferences, they’re all clean."

The SS-level Spiritual Ability User Elder Feng smiled as he walked to the window, his hands resting on the wheelchair’s arms.

With a soft voice, Elder Feng said, "Don’t worry, you now are equivalent to an A-level Spiritual Ability User, and we’re certain to find a way to help you return to your peak."

"I’ve already accepted it."

Meng Jin smiled bitterly:

"Lost to the Black Storm, so I must accept this outcome.

"The decision at that time was my own, I can blame no one else. It can only be said that I was not as skilled."

Elder Feng patted Meng Jin’s shoulder and changed the topic with a smile: "When those three adults appeared, suddenly it seemed that they were not gods, not omniscient nor omnipotent, just much stronger than us."

Meng Jin nodded slowly.

He showed a look of contemplation and said in a deep voice: "The Black Storm’s move was indeed extremely clever."

"How so?"

"After the three adults appeared, our reverence for them naturally weakens. The unknown is what’s most terrifying."

Meng Jin explained calmly:

"Isn’t the core cohesion of our Dominion Faction that we can approach the source of spiritual energy?

"The Black Storm is dissolving our cohesion, causing Spiritual Ability City to fall from atop humanity to be level with or even slightly below the nine major battle zones.

"After this broadcast, it will become very difficult for Spiritual Ability City to gather materials from the various battle zones.

"Hard times are soon to come... However, according to our reserves, there shouldn’t be any major disturbances in the next three to five years.

"As long as they don’t mess around."

Elder Feng pondered for a moment: "There’s something I don’t know if I should tell you."

"Go ahead, I’ve been bored here."

"Fu Jian requested the abolition of the Spirit Management Committee, and the three adults agreed, so the era of the Spirit Management Committee is over."

Elder Feng briefly introduced:

"Elder Tai had prepared a lot in advance, now directly presenting a mature parliamentary system.

"Its name is the Spiritual Ability City Resource Management Committee, which employs a pretrial review system; it has over a dozen departments, with several violent departments directly transitioned from the Judgement Team, Investigation Team, and Destruction Team.

"Although it’s just a superficial change, this committee’s sixty-two seats require the Dominion Faction to allocate twenty seats to the Nature Faction."

Meng Jin frowned and asked: "Twenty seats? What does it mean? Elder Tai wants the Nature Faction to participate in the management of Spiritual Ability City?"

Elder Feng sighed: "I don’t understand politics, this seems to ease relations with Fu Jian, you know the Nature Faction has always been closely linked with Fu Jian."

Meng Jin suddenly smiled.

He looked at the snowy plains, and softly said:

"It can be foreseen that it won’t even take three to five years, maybe just three to five months before Spiritual Ability City will fall into division.

"This is the Arctic Circle, where the cold wind can freeze humans to death.

"Although they never attacked Spiritual Ability City, the effect was better than if they had..."

Elder Feng asked, "What I mean is, do you want this seat? I can get one for you."

"No need to trouble yourself, I’m not in the mental state to pursue this at the moment."

Meng Jin simply said:

"Next, that place is bound to become a quagmire; stay away from them."

"We are no longer the Divine Messengers that humanity relies on, just a group of superpower users who have turned ourselves into monsters."

Elder Feng hesitated to speak.

He sighed lightly, continuing to ponder ways to revive Meng Jin’s spirits.

Meng Jin looked at the vast snowfall, pressed the button beside his hand, and the wheelchair turned, heading towards the nearby large bed.

"Elder Feng, I’m tired."

...

Wang Jixuan’s special aircraft landed at the anticipated resting location of the Sixth Pillar, while the Sixth Pillar was still on its way.

Nearby was a broad open space, where a simple stage was being set up, and a marching band of dozens was rehearsing busily.

Previously, Wang Jixuan ordered Zheng Shiduo and the others to arrange a party to send off the billions of human heroic spirits within the Pillar Blade Beast;

Of course Zheng Shiduo and the others dared not slack off, passing the order to the highest levels of the D2 Combined Combat Zone;

Master Wang really underestimated his current influence.

With just a word, the D2 Combined Combat Zone mobilized a massive amount of manpower and resources, the party venue was brightly lit and festive.

Wang Jixuan came directly here, not to watch the rehearsal.

He’s not that idle.

He went straight to the backstage area, where he found Gao Huating doing her makeup in the supply truck.

This evening, the location would be Gao Huating’s main stage;

Her dream of performing a concert on the surface was unexpectedly realized in this way.

It’s just...

The audience is rather unusual.

Wang Jixuan folded his arms, leaned against the truck door, and waited for Gao Huating to finish her eyebrow makeup and put down the brow pencil before speaking:

"The stage makeup looks good, very beautiful."

Gao Huating looked outside through the mirror, visibly blushing.

This isn’t warmth;

This is a woman’s blush.

Gao Huating lifted the hem of her performance gown’s fluffy skirt and stood up, hurriedly saying, "Officer, please have a seat, it seems there’s just one chair here..."

"Hmm," Wang Jixuan appraised her from top to bottom.

Radiant;

No doubt she would be dazzling under the stage spotlights.

Wang Jixuan sat across from her, gestured for her to relax, and then straightforwardly said:

"I’m here to find your past self, can she hear me?"

"She can!"

"Hmm," Wang Jixuan said earnestly, "I want to know what treasure the Spirit Cultivators are seeking, if this treasure requires you to open it, could you do so quickly, I’m in urgent need of power."

Gao Huating, in a listening pose, quickly said:

"She said, um no, I said... Is this sensing the strength of the Blade Beast and the degeneration of the Spirit Cultivators? This isn’t the confident you from before."

"Actually, I miscalculated," Wang Jixuan smiled wryly, "I really didn’t expect the Beast God of the Blade Beast, which is the self-awareness born from the Pillar Blade Beast, to be so outwardly strong but weak inside, able to be directly overwhelmed by the army of human heroic spirits."

Gao Huating asked, "I mean... You surely have methods to control souls, why not use them?"

Wang Jixuan retorted, "Then what difference would I have with those scum who use souls as raw materials to create the Sea of Vengeful Souls?"

"Using the dead to protect the living, isn’t that a good choice?"

"In my view, it’s not a good choice, it would affect my cultivation path, as cultivation is like this, the Dao Heart cannot be flawed."

Gao Huating was silent for a while, blinking continuously.

Soon, her expression changed, her demeanor shifted, and she softly spoke:

"I guard this legacy to await the revival opportunity of our civilization, that is for Spirit Cultivators to truly gain our recognition, transforming into one of us.

"It’s just unfortunate, the Spirit Cultivators have not yet realized the power beyond the Core Circuit, and have already rendered themselves broken.

"They deeply disappointed me.

"Giving this legacy to you would be no issue, Cultivator, but, I need you to do two things.

"And I must remind you, if I open that place, it will surely invite the spying of Spirit Cultivators and Blade Beasts, can you bear this pressure?"

’Gao Huating’ felt a bit regretful having just finished speaking these words.

No reason;

Master Wang’s eyes, were shrewdly bright.
