Chapter 354: Infighting
Chapter 354: Infighting
After departing from Nine Bays City, Lindsey found himself entangled in a series of never-ending troubles. It was only now, after being reminded by Qinggan, that he became aware of the power within the Mystic Realm and its striking similarity to Life Essence.
For Life Essence holders, this was undoubtedly a precious opportunity. By carefully sensing and experiencing this power, one could benefit their own development.
"Having a knowledgeable old man by my side certainly makes it easier to seize opportunities," Lindsey mused to himself.
He then closed his eyes, carefully feeling the dense vital essence in the valley. Qinggan, standing beside him, placed her palm on the ground, using the lowest-grade essence to manipulate the inorganic matter of the earth and extend her perception forward towards the valley.
This power traversed the mist and penetrated the water, eventually reaching the central island of the Mystic Realm, where Qinggan overheard a conversation.
"Aly Kun, how much longer do we have to waste here?"
"The plan has been in motion for nearly two months, and the entire forest is becoming more restless and uneasy. If we continue like this and attract the attention of that wizard, our business will be ruined!"
"..."
"Your impatience won't help."
"The sensors we hired have all had their minds scorched by the forest's rage, and now we can only use this crude method to pinpoint the location bit by bit."
"..."
"This approach may cause problems, as this is, after all, a world of forests."
"..."
"But neither of us can come up with a better solution."
"Even if we have to give up our business here, it's worth it as long as we achieve our goal."
"..."
"To get precise answers, we need more time."

"I could give you a vague estimate if you're in a hurry."
"..."
"Normally, I'd take that bet, but after the auction for the Platinum City Core Commercial District seat, the next opportunity will be far away. Our chamber is already on the brink of collapse, and we must seize this chance and ensure success!"
"..."
"There's no such thing as a perfect plan in this world."
"And think about it, those awakened ones we drove away have already discovered the existence of the root system!"
"..."
"In any case, my suggestion is to stay here and gather the most accurate information."
"The Feral Forest will help us deal with our competitors!"
"..."
Qinggan furrowed her brows, her voice filled with a mix of emotions. She struggled to discern the information, and the conclusion was clear:
The merchants had differing opinions, and with a little push, they might turn on each other, leading to infighting!
"Hmm?" Qinggan noticed a change beside her. She retracted her palm and turned to see Lindsey, who had been carefully sensing the Mystic Realm's power, now slowly opening his eyes, his Life Essence becoming more active with the movement.
"Your adjustment speed is impressive," Qinggan nodded slightly, then immediately covered him with the power of assimilation, helping to conceal the fluctuations of his essence.
"Lindsey, your essence is about to ascend," she said.
"Almost there," Lindsey nodded, a hint of joy in his expression.
(End of Chapter)He emulated the vital energy of the Mystic Realm, and his own abilities became more stable.
Carefully observing his inner self, he noticed that his Life Essence had become more vibrant.
Checking his attribute panel, Lin Sai found that his physique had increased by one point without any cost.
"It seems I'm still a bit short of the requirements for ascending," Lin Sai mused.
Qinggan, well-aware of the changes, immediately offered an explanation:
"From the seedling stage to the growth stage, you naturally need to absorb external Life Essence to strengthen yourself. If you go to Volcano City and apply Master Yang Ye's knowledge, you'll definitely be able to obtain a Life Fruit."
Life Fruit? Lin Sai had never heard of such a thing.
When learning the basics of Life Essence from An Rui, he hadn't gained any similar knowledge from her either.
This must be a unique resource exclusive to Volcano City, specifically for breaking through Life Essence tiers.
Life Scholars cultivated their skills and knowledge, and as a result, they could produce many precious items that were hard to find elsewhere.
Lin Sai pondered over the matter of Life Essence.
Qinggan, standing nearby, got up and shared the information she had just heard:
"Lin Sai, I can sense the presence of many people inside."
"However, their conversations are conflicting, indicating disagreements among them."
"It would be best if we could find a way to incite their internal strife and turn it into a civil war. That way, we can take them all down easily!"
Qinggan analyzed the situation, and Lin Sai immediately had an idea.
He checked his travel bag.
In the previous Mystic Realm, he had defeated Aly Kun's doppelganger and taken a Twin Serpent Coin made by Aly Kun himself!
"Miss Qinggan, I might have a plan," Lin Sai said.
"Earlier in the forest, I defeated a doppelganger of Aly Kun..."
Lin Sai explained the situation.
Qinggan's face lit up with joy, and she had a follow-up idea:
"Lin Sai, let's proceed with caution."
"Can't you change your appearance? Shouldn't there be any significant restrictions on your transformation ability?"
Lin Sai nodded and then shook his head:
"There are basically no restrictions. But if you want to transform into a specific target, it's best if it's someone I've seen before."
Qinggan smiled:
"Not anyone else, just that fellow Kang Qi's appearance."
"Mr. Kang Qi?" Lin Sai realized immediately.
He was the Stage Six Life Scholar from Observation Cape City.
Unlike Qinggan's assertive attitude, Kang Qi was known for his gentle personality and friendly relationships with various awakened individuals.
Combined with his Stage Six strength, such a person wouldn't be attacked immediately wherever he went.
Qinggan continued her explanation:
"Kang Qi has good relations with many awakened individuals. Even if they are merchants, they wouldn't bear any ill will towards him. With me covering for you, that group will never be able to tell you apart from the real Kang Qi!"
Out of caution, Lin Sai asked for more information:
"Where is Mr. Kang Qi now? If I go in like this, will it expose any other issues?"
Qinggan shook her head slightly:
"Don't worry. He's taken over my work and led a team to the Black Mountain World."
"This change was rather sudden. At least in Nine Bay City, no one but me knows his whereabouts."
After providing the explanation, Qinggan began outlining the plan:
"To incite their internal strife, we don't need overly aggressive words."
"Just take this Twin Serpent Coin and make up a story. These greedy individuals will start causing chaos among themselves..."
