Chapter 161: Sansan said, "No way!"
Chapter 161: Sansan said, "No way!"
Fang Che withdrew his divine sense power and returned his soul power, only to find himself drenched in sweat and pale. He felt so exhausted that he could fall asleep at any moment.
Time had passed so quickly; it had already been two hours!
It was already the middle of the night.
"This thing really consumes a lot of divine sense."
"No wonder most people only get a chance to come into contact with it at the Marquis Rank; the divine sense of a General or Commander Rank is simply not enough to cover such a wide area and slowly subdue small things."
"No wonder some people say that collecting divine metal requires at least half a month. It must be that their divine sense power is not enough."
"I really am a genius."
Fang Che praised himself.
After subduing the divine metal, he felt a sense of secret joy.
However, he didn't consider that his divine sense power had become stronger after his rebirth and fusion. Combined with the Boundless Scripture, his divine sense was already ten times stronger than that of his peers.
During this time, the divine ancient jade had been constantly nourishing his divine sense, almost doubling in strength every few days.
After the 'fake heart-testing path and real soul nourishment,' his divine sense power had likely surpassed the Marquis Rank!
Moreover, it was more flexible and broader than the divine sense of many high-level cultivators.
That was why he could subdue the divine metal in one night.
If the divine sense couldn't completely cover the divine metal, even leaving a hair's breadth of gap, the little sprite inside could play hide-and-seek with him for half a month.
He worked hard to recover his divine sense.
Then, he placed one hand on the divine metal, keeping it there without moving.
After a long while, he felt the little sprite waking up and floating lightly around in the divine sense space.
Now, the little guy had become one with Fang Che's divine sense.
Fang Che tried to communicate, "Shall we be companions?"
"..."
The little sprite was shy and hesitant.
"From now on, I'll be with you forever, wherever you go, okay?"
"..." The little sprite considered.
It seemed to be tempted.
"If you agree, you can sleep here every day."
Fang Che used his ultimate move.
"Okay."
The little sprite's eyes lit up.
This comfortable feeling was something it had never experienced before; it was simply too wonderful. If it could always feel like this, it would be a lifelong blessing.
"Good, but you have to bring your body in too, or how can we be together?" Fang Che persuaded gently.
The little sprite readily agreed.
"Be gentle when you bring it in, don't crush me."
So, Fang Che used his divine sense to hold the divine metal, and the little sprite exerted its power in sync.
The divine metal on his leg suddenly emitted a faint purple glow, which gradually diminished.
With a whoosh, it turned into a beam of white light and entered the divine sense space.
Fang Che felt a thousand-pound pressure bearing down on him, almost knocking him unconscious, "Quick, it's crushing me!"
The little sprite hurriedly took control.
In the divine metal, a faint light radiated, illuminating every corner, and then... the weight suddenly lessened.
Fang Che's face turned pale, his body drenched in sweat, and his eyes widened.
"No wonder some people get severely injured while collecting this thing... It's simply too heavy!"
Divine metal was the standard equipment for peak or legendary experts, but not every peak or legendary cultivator possessed a divine artifact.
They were extremely rare!
In his past life, Fang Che and his brothers had roamed the martial world for a lifetime. They had never even seen a divine artifact, let alone owned one.
Or perhaps they had seen one but couldn't recognize it.
However, considering his past life's cultivation at the Imperial Rank, the chances of him not having seen one were even higher.
Now that he finally had one, Fang Che was thrilled.
He knew that if they followed the seniority system, a piece of divine metal this large would never have been his turn, no matter how long he waited!
It was only due to his position that he could forcibly open this backdoor.
Even if he had coerced it, it would still be understandable.
But Fang Che insisted on having it.
This divine metal was too important!
With it, he wouldn't have to expose the divine ancient jade, and the golden horned dragon could directly attach to it.
Once he communicated well with the divine metal's spirit, and it completely transformed into a spear, no one would be able to tell from the outside that it was divine metal.
It would just be an ordinary spear!
But from transforming a piece of divine metal into a sharp spear, there was still a long way to go.
He didn't know how much communication he would need to do with the little guy.
But from now on, all his plans could be implemented, forming a crucial part of his undercover plan.
It was also a guarantee for his life.
Before he had it, he had always wondered how a few hundred pounds of divine metal could be stored in the divine sense space. How could a head that weighed only a few pounds hold so much? But now he understood that many things became clear once you had them.
The eastern sky began to brighten.
Fang Che communicated with the little sprite, played with it for a while, and then the little guy grew tired and fell asleep again.
After being alone and lonely for so long, the little sprite finally had a warm, comfortable, and reassuring environment to sleep in, and it wanted to take a few more naps.
Fang Che swallowed a few pills to strengthen his foundation and consumed some heavenly treasures to restore his divine sense.
Then, he meditated for an hour.
Feeling refreshed, he went to school.
Today, he would break through to the Second Rank.
...
In the sky, the hidden figure had been monitoring Fang Che all night. Seeing that he had subdued such a large piece of divine metal in just one night, he nodded in approval.
His body flickered, and he quietly disappeared.
He had other matters to attend to; he needed to help Golden Serpent Spear Dong Changfeng remove Duan Xiyang's Gun Intent.
Then, he had to leave.
His mind was made up.
He would return and discuss it with San San.
This young man was a rare genius in the Dao of the Blade. Could he be recruited as a disciple? Of course, but only after completing his undercover mission.
Moreover, by then, recruiting him as a disciple would also mean clearing his name throughout the world.
No matter how he thought about it, it was a good thing.
A logical and mutually beneficial outcome.
Thus, he was in high spirits during the journey.
...
A few days later.
"No way, no way!"
Dongfang San San shook his head firmly, "Your plan is absolutely unacceptable."
"Why?"
Xue Fuxiao was stunned.
"Why expose yourself so early?" Dongfang San San was furious, "If you had exposed yourself so soon, what would be the point of all these schemes?"
Xue Fuxiao's face turned as solemn as still water, and he said, "Duke Rank, or even higher, is possible."
"That's even worse! If you haven't been exposed by then, wouldn't you have already become the Grandmaster of the Headquarters?"
Dongfang San San hummed and said, "I just asked you to deliver some things, but you've managed to create so many problems. Usually, you don't think of taking detours, but now you want to take advantage."
Xue Fuxiao was enraged, "Then what is your plan?"
Dongfang San San coughed and said, "This young man said that he wants to become the Vice Grandmaster of the Only Me Sect."
Xue Fuxiao was dumbfounded.
After a long while, he burst out laughing, "Really?"
"Really!"
Xue Fuxiao laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist, "Let me tell you, San San, if he really becomes the Vice Grandmaster of the Only Me Sect, regardless of which Vice Grandmaster he becomes, when the time comes, he won't need to bow to me as his master, I'll bow to him as my master!"
Dongfang San San lowered his head, looking for a file, his eyes glancing up, and said, "If you believe me, I suggest you change that sentence to sworn brothers. Otherwise, you'll regret it."
Xue Fuxiao readily agreed, "That's fine too! Let's decide on that."
"Hehe..."
Dongfang San San lowered his head and pointed at the door with a raised hand, "Get out!"
"Damn it!"
Xue Fuxiao left.
A smile appeared on Dongfang San San's lips, and he continued to organize the intelligence, feeling much more relaxed.
These two people could only show this carefree side in front of a few others.
When facing anyone else, they were always unapproachably confident, like a clear sky after a storm, holding the world in their hands.
After a long time, it became tiring.
"Fortunately, I have a few brothers with me. Otherwise, in this vast darkness, I wouldn't know when I'd reach the point of mental collapse."
Dongfang San San let out a soft sigh.
...
Time passed quietly.
The Seal God Palace began to report to the Headquarters the number of participants and the list for the Incubation to Divinity Program.
"The Unified Heart Sect has a total of two hundred and fifty General Rank participants, and the list is as follows."
Under each person's name was their rank and age.
Nothing else was listed.
Moreover, several dozen of them were using aliases, such as Moon Owl, Wood Demon, and Night Demon...
Night Demon's name was silently mixed in among them.
Without the knowledge of the other members of the Unified Heart Sect, this list reached the Headquarters.
...
The Reserve Planning Hall of the Headquarters of the Only Me Sect.
The entire hall was bustling with dozens of people constantly busy registering the lists.
Their hands and feet were in a frenzy.
"The list from the Heavenly God Sect has arrived."
"Record it."
"The list from the Moon God Sect has arrived."
"Record it."
"The list from the Unified Heart Sect has arrived."
"Record it."
Everything proceeded in an orderly manner; a few were reported, and a few were recorded. In any case, this side was just keeping records.
The truly valuable ones were those who could come out alive.
For those who couldn't make it out, it would just be a black mark, representing their permanent disappearance from the mortal world.
Incubation to Divinity Program.
It was about to begin!
December 29th.
There were still two days until the assembly.
Fang Che's cultivation was now firmly at the initial stage of the fifth rank of General.
Mu Linyuan's injuries had already recovered by sixty to seventy percent.
And the day after tomorrow, Mo Gaiyun and the others were also setting off.
In the afternoon, the sunlight had disappeared, leaving only a glow in the sky.
Fang Che went to find Li Changkong.
"Taking a leave of absence?"
Li Changkong frowned, "Why are you taking a leave?"
"I'm feeling a bit unwell... It's not entirely a leave, I checked the task list and am going out to find some heavenly materials and treasures to complete a task."
Fang Che smiled, but at the bottom of his eyes, there was hidden frustration.
Li Changkong looked at him for a long time before finally sighing and saying, "They're all going to participate in the Great Competition, and you're staying here alone. It's understandable that you feel uncomfortable. Go and do your task, but remember to come back early."
"Yes."
"How long is the leave...?"
"By the time Mo Gaiyun and the others return, I should be back as well."
Fang Che turned back, revealing a sunny smile.
In his heart, he thought, if he couldn't return, then this life, he wouldn't return.
Unlike Mo Gaiyun and the others, whose battles in the Great Competition were just sparring matches, only determining victory or defeat, not life or death.
The Incubation to Divinity Program that Fang Che was going to participate in from the Only Me Sect was a battle of life and death!
Every step was a matter of life and death.
Fang Che was currently only a fifth-rank General, and there were eighth and ninth-rank Generals at the peak... he didn't know how many there were.
Although Fang Che was determined to break in, he knew that his chances of coming out alive were not high.
I don't know how many people's blood my blade will be stained with.
And my blood, I don't know whose blade it will stain.
