Chapter 44: Fishing in Troubled Waters 【Monthly Ticket Bonus Chapter】
Perhaps it was due to simultaneously strengthening two types of energy, Zheng Zha couldn't achieve 【Inner Sight】.
However, the warm Nine Yang True Qi flowing through his body felt incredibly comfortable, allowing his taut nerves to relax.
It was Fang Ge, currently healing the injured Zheng Zha and Jin Xi.
After all, all three possessed 【Internal Energy System】 enhancements, and at this moment, Fang Ge's use of Nine Yang True Qi for healing was highly efficient.
As is well-known, internal energy, precisely because of its mediocrity, often appears to lack value for money.
Long-lasting breath, extended lifespan, increased strength, improved speed, internal energy body protection, and improved blood circulation.
It had a little bit of everything, but lacked in everything, making it a small hexagon, full of flaws.
And Nine Yang Divine Skill is the internal art among internal arts, a cultivation method that pushes mediocrity to its extreme!
We might as well call it — omnipotent!
Once cultivated, it can emit a purple mist, internal energy feels boundless, and ordinary punches and kicks can split mountains and crack stones.
True Qi automatically protects the body, making the flesh impervious to blades, spears, water, and fire, forming an indestructible physique.
The practitioner's lightness skill can be unparalleled in the world; the cultivator becomes immune to all poisons, and True Qi also cures all illnesses.
It is even said that all martial arts in the world can be used at will, and no worldly martial arts can harm the practitioner…
Each of these is an original characteristic of internal energy, yet each is taken to its peak, making it a true 【Large Hexagon】!
For instance, in terms of healing, with Fang Ge present, the Central Continent Team basically no longer needs basic medicines like 【Hemostatic Spray】; at least items of the 【Three Pure Dao Talisman】 level would be useful!
“Chu… Xuan?”
James’s oral cavity was clearly very different from a normal human’s, but fortunately, thanks to Main God’s translation, everyone could understand him.
Hearing that Chu Xuan had made progress, Fang Ge, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, withdrew his large hands from Jin Xi and Zheng Zha's backs, no longer expending True Qi to heal them.
—This Qi-retaining ability is practically a cheat! By continuously refining the Yin Yang Purple Jade within my body… after this round of cultivation, my True Qi actually increased instead of decreasing!
This is truly invincible!
With a sigh of emotion, Fang Ge stood up and walked towards the Alchemical Array.
Realizing Fang Ge had withdrawn his True Qi, Zheng Zha abruptly opened his eyes.
He was surprised to find that his injuries were almost completely healed, his bones seemed even more solid than before, and even his mental fatigue had been relieved.
This was partly due to the Symbiote and the T-Virus, but Fang Ge’s Nine Yang True Qi was probably the biggest contributor!
This made Zheng Zha couldn't help but exclaim:
“This Nine Yang Divine Skill is truly heaven-defying! When will my half-baked internal energy reach his level of strength?”
“…The Controller’s cultivation and martial arts are far superior to yours. One is like heaven, the other like earth.”
A clear and steady voice entered Zheng Zha’s ears.
Zheng Zha was somewhat surprised; this was the first time Jin Xi had spoken to him, as far as he could remember.
This young lady always silently followed by Fang Ge’s side, a faint smile always on her face, yet she possessed a strangely powerful aura that no one dared to underestimate.
According to Fang Ge himself, their combat strengths were comparable. Zheng Zha hadn't believed it before, but he had truly witnessed it just now.
Having seen her performance like a Martial God, Zheng Zha even suspected that this young lady, who always maintained composure and elegance, was even more formidable than Fang Ge.
After all, he had sparred with Fang Ge many times over the past few days, and had never felt such oppressive power.
Zheng Zha couldn't suppress the doubt in his heart and asked in a low voice, “Which of you two… is stronger?”
“You overestimate me and underestimate Nine Yang Divine Skill. When have you ever seen the Controller go all out?”
Jin Xi exhaled a turbid breath, then gently opened her eyes, but did not get up, remaining seated on the ground.
She lightly raised her slender hand, and a powerful suction force was released from her palm. The Buddha Wheel beside her actually rose into the air and flew directly into her hand!
This distance of only two or three meters truly demonstrated the concept of the 【Supernatural】.
Cool!
“Hiss…”
Zheng Zha gasped enviously, and couldn't help but ask, “May I ask, Young Hero Jin Xi, what divine skill do you practice?”
“…Northern Darkness Divine Art.”
Jin Xi closed her eyes again, placing her hands on the Buddha Wheel.
Then, the invisible and colorless North Darkness True Energy was slowly injected into the Buddha Wheel, upon which a faint golden light shimmered.
Fang Ge had always intended to urge Zheng Zha, that lazy bum, to cultivate properly. Jin Xi had always seen and remembered this.
To share the Controller's worries was the meaning of her existence… Therefore, stimulating Zheng Zha was also a good method.
“All are famous divine skills… I’ll get one to practice someday!”
Zheng Zha felt a sense of frustration.
It must be said that being overshadowed by Fang Ge and Chu Xuan did not make Zheng Zha feel resentful.
After all, everything Fang Ge displayed in the Main God Space, whether it was planning, strategy, or combat power, was top-notch, truly a 【Heaven-Sent Prodigy】!
It was not surprising that Chu Xuan, who already held the impressive rank of Colonel in the real world, was also at ease in the Main God Space. It was normal for Zheng Zha, an ordinary white-collar worker, to be inferior to them.
But to be inferior even to a young lady who had only been 'born' for about a month was simply unacceptable!
Jin Xi and Loli were both created by Main God… Could it be that Zheng Zha’s talent was even inferior to Loli’s? Then how could he possibly bring Loli back to reality?
…Perhaps, it was time to push himself.
Zheng Zha secretly vowed.
Two flowers bloom, each showing a branch. (A Chinese idiom meaning to tell two stories separately but in parallel.)
Fang Ge half-squatted in front of James and asked softly, “Do you still remember me? I am Fang Ge.”
“Fang… Ge…”
James’s mental state was clearly not very good.
He barely managed to regain his self-awareness, but he was clearly still not accustomed to his current body, and his speech was somewhat hesitant.
“Chu Xuan, your treatment plan won’t have any problems, will it?”
Seeing this situation, Fang Ge expressed his doubts to the bespectacled man.
“To avoid any accidents, I merely used alchemy to turn that parasite into a part of his skull.”
Chu Xuan’s answer surprised Fang Ge:
“This way, the parasite will die due to 【systemic organ calcification】, and he will also be free from the Umbrella Corporation’s control… Alice was treated the same way.”
—Your methods are truly wild…
Since that was the case, it shouldn't have damaged the brain; James should just need time to adapt.
To inquire about what happened, they would need to wait a little longer.
“After all, it’s a rare moment of respite; doing nothing won’t do.”
Fang Ge rubbed his chin and quickly came up with a new idea. He asked:
“Chu Xuan, do you think we can impersonate the Umbrella Corporation and declare war on the military? Anyway, we’ll soon be entering the Hive, and what happens on the surface will no longer concern us.”
“Why not make it even more chaotic and fish in troubled waters?”
“Theoretically, yes, but practically…”
Chu Xuan’s words paused, as if he was thinking about something.
After about three to five seconds, he pushed up his glasses and said:
“I think it can be slightly modified.”
“How modified?” Fang Ge raised an eyebrow with interest; this Chu Xuan was quite humorous.
The bespectacled man’s tone was flat: “Since we’re going to pretend to start a war, we can directly bombard the US military base.”
