Chapter 701: Chapter 701: Huang Fu Loses Face Chapter 701: Chapter 701: Huang Fu Loses Face Fortunately, Feng Jun, due to his frequent travels to and from the mobile phone dimension, not only had a shortcut to enter, but also, thanks to his frequent operation, the success rate of entering without looking was almost one hundred percent.
Within a flash, he entered the mobile phone dimension.
Upon arriving, he found himself in the position he was in when he left this dimension–the telecommunications room.
The two cultivators from this dimension were still “studying abroad” in the Earth Realm, leaving him alone in the room.
The Stone Ring on Feng Jun's wrist was just a light pink color, which was because he had been transporting people between the two dimensions and hadn't dared to charge it with too much energy, so he didn't consider pulling that yin entity over here.
However, even if he had brought the yin entity here, this wouldn't be a place to fight.
Feng Jun was the type to act when he thought of something, so he took out a Spirit Stone that was in the process of refining to charge the Stone Ring with some energy.
Then he was surprised to find that his left hand was icy and stiff, and he was momentarily unable to move it freely.
He ran a slight current of qi through his body and realized that Yin Energy was invading his body, with the left side of his chest already starting to feel cold.
“Such powerful Yin Energy,” he sighed, sitting in meditation on the spot, focused solely on expelling the Yin Energy from his body.
Fortunately, his contact with the yin entity had been just a moment, and the Spirit Blade had shattered, so even though the Yin Energy was domineering, the amount that had contaminated him was minimal.
After almost two hours, he completely expelled the Yin Energy from his body and finally took a long breath, “This yin entity… I guess it might not be just at the initial stage?”
Another thing he found amazing was that his left hand had suffered such damage without him realizing it as he went to tap on his mobile phone, and what's more crucial… he managed to do it, successfully entering the mobile phone dimension.
If he hadn't managed that, he somewhat dreaded to think of the consequences.
So he couldn't help but marvel, it seems that in moments of crisis, the potential of humans is indeed tremendous.
While feeling astonished, he pushed the door open and walked out; he absolutely couldn't choose this place as the main battlefield.
Just as he was about to head into the mountains, he changed his mind and went to the courtyard to find Yu Changqing, “Does Wuyou Platform have any extreme Yang Spirit Weapons?”
“Spirit Weapon… I've rarely heard of them,” Yu Changqing shook her head; she was on the Cultivation Path and not very interested in Martial Cultivator's items.
Then, a curious look appeared on her face, “Why do you want this?”
“I may have to deal with a yin entity soon,” Feng Jun answered with a smile, “Of course, it's not certain I'll have to go, I'm just preparing for all possibilities.”
“Ah, a yin entity, then you should use a Thunderclap Talisman or a Fire Talisman,” Yu Changqing was aware of these, “or Yang Armor… Oh right, the Golden Armor Charm is also good against yin entities.”
Feng Jun shook his head, replying worriedly, “The Golden Armor Charm isn't enough; it can only handle Nether Bees, and it wouldn't be of much use if there are a lot of Nether Snakes.”
Yu Changqing's eyes spun with a thought, “Can't you use your generator?”
Feng Jun was stunned to hear that; could that really be done?
But after careful thought, he shook his head again, “Thanks for your suggestion, but the generator… it's output isn't enough.”
He felt that he hadn't considered this possibility because he instinctively knew that a generator couldn't handle a yin entity of the Ascendant phase, but he had to admit, Yu Changqing had a unique perspective when thinking about problems.
So he decided to ponder over the Thunderclap Talisman for a couple of days, staying on in the courtyard.
Although he was eager to return immediately, without acquiring any good items, there was little point in going back.
—-Thankfully, time was not moving on the other side, so he had plenty of it.
He first absorbed the energy from a Spirit Stone that was refining, then stood up and entered Mount Zhige, setting up an Intermediate Level Spirit Gathering Array again–he wanted to use this array to bring himself to the best condition before entering again.
Once the Spirit Gathering Array was activated, many felt its presence, even the venerable master made a special trip over, intending to bask in the Spiritual Energy for a couple more days.
Pan Renjie arrived at Mount Zhige as dusk approached, but not long after his arrival, he began to loiter around Feng Jun and after circling twice, he asked with puzzlement, “Why is there a scent of a yin entity on you?”
No second-generation heir was simple! Feng Jun glanced at him, “Oh, you actually noticed?”
Pan Renjie smiled proudly, “My family has the Yin Spring in Guanquan Valley, do you think I wouldn't notice?”
Feng Jun replied with a smile, “I might have to come into contact with a yin entity soon, so I'm doing a simulation in advance… Does your family have any extreme Yang items? I want to rent them.”
“I don't want to ask my family for favors,” Pan Renjie shook his head, flatly refusing, then he made a suggestion, “Actually, the Huang Fu Flawless family has the Thousand Thunderstrike Wood, which even Ascendant phase yin entities cannot approach.”
“Huang Fu Flawless, haha,” Feng Jun laughed; he really had no desire to see her now.
After the two had their conversation, Mi Yunshan and Chen Junsheng also arrived, also planning to take advantage of the Spirit Gathering Array, but before that, they had to cook dinner for everyone.
While they were busy, the venerable master approached Feng Jun and tossed him a box, whispering, “Inside is a complete piece of Fierce Sun Stone, return it to me after you've used it.”
Feng Jun was delighted upon hearing this, but seeing how he looked, he didn't dare to openly give thanks, so he just nodded slightly, “Many thanks, elder.”
The Fierce Sun Stone was indeed a great item for dealing with Yin entities. When a pinch of Fierce Sun Stone powder was added to ordinary weapons during their forging, it could effectively combat Yin entities, earning it the name “Fierce Sun Blade.”
However, in the mundane world, there were no more than a hundred Fierce Sun Blades, most of which were used to equip special military forces.
In the Cultivation World, the Fierce Sun Stone was also a rare sight. While not particularly powerful in slaying Yin entities, and thus often ground into powder for forging blades, a whole Fierce Sun Stone was more than enough for self-protection.
With an entire Fierce Sun Stone, Feng Jun felt confident in protecting himself in front of Yin entities at the Nascent Soul stage.
He hadn't expected this Yan elder, who'd been rather inconspicuous all along, to actually be able to produce such a treasure to lend to him.
Previously, the Yan elder had resold the Lingzhi Formation to the Tiantong Commercial Alliance, without even notifying him, giving the impression of being somewhat irresponsible.
From this, it was clear that people in this world couldn't simply be described as “good” or “bad.” But it was precisely because each person was a complex unity of contradictions that the world was all the more real and fascinating.
With the Fierce Sun Stone in hand, Feng Jun could actually go back and take a chance. At the very least, he could safely exit the Stone Gate and ensure that those Yin entities wouldn't follow him out.
But he had a wish, to eliminate that Nascent Soul stage Yin entity, so he felt it necessary to adjust his own condition.
There was no need to speak of that very night; by the latter half of the night, the Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Gathering Array had already been fully absorbed, and he could enter to condition himself.
By noon the next day, Chairman Huang Fu made her way over. She stood outside the Spirit Gathering Array, silent.
It wasn't until the afternoon when Feng Jun came out that she asked with puzzlement, “Dao Friend Feng, I entrusted two individuals to learn telecommunications knowledge from you. May I know where they are at this moment?”
Upon hearing this, Feng Jun gave her a cold look, “Have you been to the machine room?”
He had agreed with her that she couldn't enter the machine room without his invitation.
“Of course not,” Chairman Huang Fu answered with conviction, “But my Tiantong Commerce Alliance has its own methods of communication.”
“Oh, is that so,” Feng Jun said with a wave of his hand, speaking carelessly, “They've been sent away by me to learn.”
“Sent away?” Chairman Huang Fu was actually not surprised by this response, but she took the opportunity to ask, “Where have you sent them?”
Feng Jun simply turned the question back on her, “What's the Tiantong Commerce Alliance's method of communication?”
As if only you know how to obtain news, before you seek to understand my situation, you should share your own secrets first.
Chairman Huang Fu didn't hesitate to reply, “Every other night, the two of them are to report their progress to me… A delay of one day is fine, but surely not two days. I knew there must be something wrong.”
Feng Jun had only forbidden her from entering the machine room, but had not prevented those two from leaving it, making her management quite straightforward.
After saying this, she looked at him with smug satisfaction, “Alright, your turn now, where did you send those two?”
Feng Jun glanced at her, “Of course, it's a place where they can be taught the knowledge… Where do you think it is?”
“You…” Chairman Huang Fu pointed at him and then stamped her foot in frustration, “You are really dishonest.”
“Where have I been dishonest?” Feng Jun's expression darkened as he asserted himself, “Although we are acquainted, you can't just make unfounded accusations… What have I promised you that I haven't done?”
Upon hearing this, how could Chairman Huang Fu not realize she had been outmaneuvered by him?
She had revealed her own secret to him, yet he was evading her questions–there was never an agreement about exchanging secrets for secrets.
The secret she mentioned was in fact trivial, and it would have been fine to reveal it unilaterally, but Feng Jun's evasiveness made her very uncomfortable–this was the tactic she was adept at.
However, this mix of semi-joking and serious evasion wasn't something she could take issue with; all she could do was nod and grit her teeth as she spoke, “Fine, feel smug for now… When will they be able to return?”
Feng Jun stroked his chin, pondering his answer, “I estimate it will take them at least ten to twenty days… I'm not sure of the specifics.”
In reality, he had long wanted to come here to waste some time. Training those two for over half a month was sure to produce tangible results. If they returned to the Mobile Phone realm to find no progress here, that would be a serious problem.
Ten days or so might be fine with a difference of a day or two, but any more than that would definitely not be acceptable.
Previously, he hadn't been able to find the time to come here and idle away the hours, but now that he was here, he decided to rest a couple more days.
Chairman Huang Fu had no way to deal with him and could only look at him resentfully, “Fine, I came to inform you… The materials for the Earth Wall Formation are expected to arrive by evening.”
Her visit was certainly not just about asking about the whereabouts of those two; otherwise, it would seem like questioning his reliability, an attitude and specificity that could affect their cooperation.
So inquiring about the two was just “by the way,” while notifying him about the imminent arrival of the materials was her “actual business.”
Of course, as to which was the real business, there was no need for either party to delve too deeply. This was the proper attitude for a business collaboration…
(Another adorable main character, the pressure is great…)
