Chapter 152 'Divine Embryo', Welcome Back! ~ (Chapter 45 of 2 words, please vote with monthly tickets ~)

[It incorporates the core of the rare Fate-Devouring Void Jellyfish, possessing near-perfect optical cloaking and energy concealment capabilities.]

[Obsessed with secretly collecting personal items or battle mementos belonging to powerful female martial artists.]

"Modified martial artist?"

When the Eye of Truth sees, it gradually reveals the information about the transparent man.

Fang Qingyu probably figured out why the other party was able to blend into the surrounding environment and create a transparent effect.

Furthermore, they were unable to perceive the other party's presence.

Don't say
This is actually pretty strong!

Perfect concealment, ready to deliver a fatal blow at the right moment.

Unless you are significantly stronger than your opponent.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to stop them.

Of course, this also shows that Jiang Wei is indeed a reincarnation.

If I didn't have the diagrams myself.

There is absolutely no way they could sense that there is someone else there.

soon.

Following the direction the martial artist was moving, Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei calmly walked out of the suffocating underground cavern passage.

Outside, the temporary outposts built against the giant pillars at the edge of the square were a scene of bustling activity after the chaos.

Medics moved among the wounded, while team members either leaned against containers to catch their breath or looked like they had just survived a disaster, talking to people outside.

Qin Hui, Qi Hao, and the others were anxiously guarding the cave entrance when they saw Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei appear, and immediately surrounded them.

"Qingzi, Xiao Jiang, are you alright?!"

Qin Hui, with the loudest voice, was about to pat Fang Qingyu's shoulder with a big hand, his voice filled with joy.

"It's nothing." Fang Qingyu subtly stepped to the side, just avoiding Qin Hui's hand. At the same time, he frowned slightly and pressed his hand to the area below his left rib. "I just got splashed by the insect's acid, it's a bit burning, I need to treat it. Brother Qin, you guys help Deputy Director Sun and the others clean up the battlefield first. Xiao Jiang and I will go find the medics to give us some quick treatment and then come over."

Fang Qingyu's voice was slightly hoarse from trying to suppress discomfort, which, combined with the movement of pressing on his ribs, seemed very natural.

Upon closer inspection, Qin Hui and the others noticed a charred, corroded patch on the left rib area of ​​his combat uniform, with some viscous green liquid remaining at the edges. They immediately became tense.

"Is it serious? Quick! Mouse, go call the medic," Old Joe said immediately.

"No need, no need." Fang Qingyu waved his hand and pointed to a relatively clean corner of a container not far away. "I see there are first aid kits over there. I know how to use them, and it'll be quick. You guys can go help out, but don't be careless."

Seeing that Fang Qingyu insisted, and that he didn't seem to be seriously injured, Qin Hui nodded: "Okay! Then you go and deal with it quickly. Rat Lu Chen, come with me over there to help move things. Old Qiao, you keep an eye on the perimeter."

The group quickly dispersed and began the post-war cleanup work.

Fang Qingyu then pulled Jiang Wei along and quickly walked towards the corner of the container.

As soon as he turned the corner and the containers blocked his view, the discomfort on his face vanished instantly, and he continued walking towards the transparent martial artist.

The invisible man was clearly very cautious and moved slowly.

Make full use of the ruins in the square, the container wreckage, and even the lingering smoke as cover, and blend perfectly into the environment.

They also tried to avoid all areas where people gathered along the way.

They stealthily moved towards the edge of power with a clear objective.

Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei hung far behind like two silent shadows.

His sense of crisis was heightened to the extreme, and his starlight field and blood flowed silently within his body. Although the Dragon Sparrow Blade was not yet drawn, the hilt was already firmly gripped.

A faint, intense heat emanated from Jiang Wei, and the surrounding air distorted slightly, as if an unseen flame was brewing.

The two watched as the invisible man passed through an area covered by the wreckage of a huge crane, bypassing a team of SEA agents who were cleaning it up.

Finally, it will reach the edge of the force field.

The area is relatively empty, with only the wreckage of a few destroyed vehicles.

The transparent figure looked at the edge, seemingly delighted at its impending departure, and quickened its pace.

It's now!

Fang Qingyu and Jiang Wei exchanged a glance, and without a word, they instantly sprang into action.

hum-

Fang Qingyu's figure transformed into a blur that tore through the air, and the Zhou Tian Star Force Field suddenly expanded, instantly making the area within ten meters viscous and sluggish!
The target was directly pointing to the location of the invisible man!

The Dragon Sparrow Blade was drawn with a clang, and before the blade even arrived, a blade aura, condensed with starlight and chilling killing intent, locked onto the opponent like ice!

At the same time, Jiang Wei pushed forward with her small hand!
"boom--!"

A condensed, tangible orange-red pillar of fire, like a roaring fire dragon, carrying an overbearing will to incinerate everything, struck first despite being behind, and fiercely slammed into the path of the invisible man.

The two of them cooperated.

Not only did it block the enemy's retreat, but it also turned that area into a high-temperature inferno.

"who!!?"

A scream filled with extreme horror, disbelief, and a sharp, distorted tone rang out at the center of Fang Qingyu's force field and Jiang Wei's fire pillar eruption.

The transparent light, perfectly integrated into the environment, rippled violently like water with a stone thrown in, instantly revealing a blurry human figure.

He was a lean man wearing a tight-fitting black combat suit.

His face was contorted with shock, his eyes filled with incomprehensible fear, and he was still clutching something tightly in his tactical pocket.

Fang Qingyu's force field made him feel as if he were stuck in quagmire, his movements sluggish and stiff. Although Jiang Wei's flames did not directly hit him, the terrifying heat made his hair stand on end instantly.
The man couldn't understand it!

I just can't understand it!!

The core of the ethereal jellyfish granted him near-perfect invisibility and energy concealment!
Even with the perception of a martial arts grandmaster, unless you jump around recklessly in front of the grandmaster, it will be difficult for the grandmaster to detect your movements.

these two people
How could one person, who was clearly just a microscopic martial artist, and the other, who seemed completely harmless and had just joined the Cult of God, possibly lock onto them so precisely?!
This overturned men's perceptions.

"People from Creation Technology?"

Fang Qingyu's voice was as cold as iron, without the slightest doubt, only certainty.

Upon hearing this, the man's face instantly darkened after the initial shock, and his eyes flickered uncertainly.

It's unclear how the two discovered him.

However, the opponent was only a martial artist of the same level as him and a follower of the God. If he wanted to run away, he would not be completely without a chance!
Thinking of this, the man gritted his teeth, and a faint light seemed to flash from his tight-fitting combat suit. His figure was forcibly blurred under the suppression of the stellar force field.

"Want to run?"

Fang Qingyu's lips curled into a slight smile, without even using his full strength.

hum! !

The stellar force field suddenly contracted and condensed, instantly applying a viscous and sluggish effect to the man.

At the same time, Fang Qingyu took a step forward.

The ground beneath their feet cracked instantly, and dark red lava patterns surged like magma beneath their combat suits!

The terrifying explosive power brought by the Qi and blood of the Bone Fusion Realm was released with a roar!

Shocking!
There were no dazzling sparks, no roaring black flames, only a blade of light so fast it surpassed the limits of visual perception!
The Dragon Sparrow's Strike seemed to transform into a pure lightning bolt that tore through space. It struck first despite being behind, carrying a chilling killing intent and an overwhelming force, instantly slashing towards the path that the man's blurry figure was bound to take!
The man felt an immense, inexplicable force, accompanied by a bone-chilling dryness, slam into him!

His forced concealment ability was instantly burst like a fragile soap bubble, and his figure was completely exposed once again!
"clang--!!!"

A deafening explosion!
The short dagger, which the man instinctively used to block, was broken in two!

The violent impact was like being hit by a high-speed train, sending him flying and crashing heavily into the wreckage of a flying truck behind him with a dull thud, instantly denting the metal frame.

"Pfft!" The man spat out a mouthful of blood, his internal organs seemed to shift, and the arm holding the dagger went limp, the bones obviously broken.

He struggled to get up.

But he found that the dark figure had landed steadily less than three meters in front of him as if by teleportation, and the Dragon Sparrow's Strike pointed diagonally at the ground.

The tip of the knife dripped with a dark liquid, whether it was from him or leftovers from the previous battle.

Those cold eyes looked down at him as if he were an insect being trampled underfoot.

Absolute dominance! Undisputed speed and power!
The shadow of death instantly gripped the man's heart, shattering any lingering hope he had.

The gloom on his face vanished, leaving only extreme fear and the instinct for survival.

"Don't kill me!"

The man's voice was hoarse and trembling, choked with sobs, "I...I'm not a core member! I'm just a gofer! I...I have something valuable! Priceless! Take it all! Just please spare my life!"

His good hand trembled as he reached into his tactical pocket and carefully pulled something out.

It is about the size of a goose egg, and its entire body is a deep dark gold color.

A golden egg with a surface covered in natural, mysterious silver patterns resembling star trails!?

Even at a distance.

Fang Qingyu could sense an indescribable flavor in it.

"The King Worm Egg is called the 'Divine Embryo' within Creation!"

The man presented the golden egg with both hands as if it were a treasure, and said eagerly, "Legend has it that it contains the embryo of a god, and it's extremely valuable!! Creation Technology has been searching for Destiny Ghosts like the Abyss Weavers, who possess the ability to reproduce from top to bottom and transform energy, in order to try to put this thing into their bodies and use their nest environment to incubate it! My mission this time is to safely bring it to the designated location. Now it's yours, let me go! Please!"

Fang Qingyu's gaze lingered on the golden egg for a moment.

That peculiar feeling was truly extraordinary.

But his face showed no greed or surprise; it remained as cold as ever.

Fang Qingyu slowly raised the Dragon Sparrow Blade, its tip pointing at the man: "Where is the designated location?"

People at Creation Technology are somewhat polarized.

Some people are fearless and will not say a word, but will directly attempt to self-destruct and perish together with others.

There are also those like the man.

Someone who blurted everything out before you even started questioning them.

This actually saved Fang Qingyu a lot of trouble.

The man was taken aback, not expecting the other party to react so calmly to the priceless 'divine embryo,' instead showing more concern for the designated location.

He quickly replied, "Qingjian City! Right here in Qingjian City!! The old dock in the East District, the abandoned cargo ship 'Radiance' in its hold! Just put the goods in the marked refrigerated compartment there before midnight tonight. That's all I know, I'm just a deliveryman!"

"Where is the headquarters of Chuangsheng Technology? Who are the top executives? What other bases does it have in Qingjian City?" Fang Qingyu's questions came like a machine gun, each one hitting the nail on the head.

A look of confusion and fear crossed the man's face as he shook his head frantically. "I don't know! I really don't know! We only communicate through a single line of communication; I don't even know who my contact is! Missions are all issued directly through an encrypted channel. Outpost? I... I only know this trading point. As for the headquarters, that's just a legend. Please, let me go! I've told you everything I know. This egg really is a treasure!"

Looking at the other person's almost collapsing expression, and their cluelessness when asked questions.

The last trace of interest in Fang Qingyu's eyes vanished.

This kind of role doesn't offer much opportunity for advancement.

It's probably just that Creation Technology didn't expect him to be discovered.

Otherwise, given his level of loyalty, it would be impossible to assign him this task.

"waste."

Two cold words fell.

The sword flashed!
Hurry! So fast that the pleading expression on the man's face didn't even have time to change!

puff!

A thin but deadly line of blood appeared on the man's neck.

The terror and pleading in his eyes froze instantly, then were quickly covered by deathly silence. His body went limp and he collapsed to the ground, silent forever.

Fang Qingyu didn't even glance at the corpse on the ground.

He bent down and used the tip of his knife with extreme precision to pick up the dark golden 'divine embryo' and catch it steadily.

It feels warm and smooth to the touch, as if it carries the rhythm of life, and that indescribable feeling becomes more pronounced after you get your hands on it.

He then turned around and handed the 'divine embryo' to Jiang Wei, who had been standing quietly to the side with a curious expression.

"Do you recognize this thing? Is there really some 'deity' inside?" Fang Qingyu's tone was inquisitive.

Given Jiang Wei's background, the daughter of the Yellow Emperor lived for so many years.

If even she doesn't recognize it, then probably very few people would recognize this thing either.

Jiang Wei reached out her small hand and carefully took the dark golden egg. Her clear eyes were fixed on the star-like patterns flowing on the surface of the eggshell. Her small hand gently stroked the eggshell, as if trying to feel the rhythm contained within it.

The curiosity on her little face gradually turned into seriousness, even a hint of solemnity!
There was silence for a few seconds.

Jiang Wei slowly raised her head and looked at Fang Qingyu, her eyes unusually serious, and her voice carrying a solemnity that seemed incongruous with her appearance:

“This thing is very special, much more special than that insect mother. Its origin may be beyond imagination.” She paused, as if choosing her words carefully, and finally said, “If you trust me, you can leave it with me first. Once I have the answer, I will tell you.”

Fang Qingyu waved his hand when he saw Jiang Wei's unusually serious expression.

"It's alright, just leave it with you for now."

After spending these days together, I've found that Comrade Xiao Jiang is trustworthy.

Anyway, for him right now, this thing is just a useless golden egg.

If Jiang Wei can figure it out.

On the contrary, it's a good thing.

Then the two of them didn't look at the corpse on the ground again.

"Let's go, it's time to go out."

Fang Qingyu's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible fatigue, yet also revealed a sense of relief after everything had settled down.

Jiang Wei carefully put the dark golden egg into her small bag, patted it with her hands, nodded, and followed closely behind.

The two no longer concealed their whereabouts.

He strode toward the edge of the force field that separated the two worlds.

Om-!
Passing through that invisible barrier, like a viscous, cold film of water.

The familiar feeling of separation washed over me once again.

Previously, there was a deafening, scalp-splitting cacophony of insect chirping and a pungent, nauseating stench of blood and burnt flesh.

In an instant!

Completely stripped away!
It's like taking off a heavy, filthy coat.

Instead, there was a deafening roar...

Noisy!

The piercing sirens swirled in the night air, mingled with urgent shouts: "Stretcher! This way!" "Wounded first!" "Keep the passage clear! Make way!"

The roar of car engines rose and fell, and further away, the hustle and bustle of a normal city could be heard, along with the faint sounds of pop music and even the smoky aromas of food wafting from roadside stalls.
Like a warm tide, it instantly flooded the senses that were filled with deathly silence and despair.

Suddenly, everything lit up!

No longer is it the murky, dim light and grotesque silhouettes of distorted buildings amidst ruins.

Instead, it was a dazzling sea of ​​light, with countless flashing and rotating police lights in red and blue, the blinding white light of makeshift searchlights, and the city's brilliant neon lights in the distance.

The stark contrast struck Fang Qingyu's heart like a heavy hammer.

This caused him to pause slightly and subconsciously take a deep breath.

The air, mingled with the warmth of everyday life, rushed into my lungs, carrying a sweet aftertaste that washed away the lingering blood and decay deep within.

The nerves that had been taut for who knows how long finally relaxed completely at this moment.

An indescribable sense of exhaustion surged from the depths of my body like a tide, yet it also carried a strange sense of relief, like the weight of a heavy burden had been lifted.

ended.

It's really over.

The nightmare of Qingjian City, the threat of the insect swarm, and the roar of the Abyss Weaver were all left behind under the desolate force field dome.

The neon lights flickered on Fang Qingyu's face, which was covered in blood, dust, and sweat.

A bustling, vibrant, and lively world.
Silence, ruins, and an apocalyptic world ravaged by insect swarms.
They were separated only by an invisible barrier.

Suddenly a world away.

The experience of just a few days was a condensation of too much life and death, despair and struggle, battles that pushed the limits and ruthless killing.

Standing amidst this familiar yet unfamiliar hustle and bustle of "humanity," I feel a strong sense of unreality.

Fang Qingyu turned his head slightly and looked at the little girl beside him.

Jiang Wei was also looking up, her clear eyes curiously observing the flashing police lights, the white-clad figures running hurriedly, and the neon lights of the towering buildings in the distance.

Her small nostrils twitched slightly, as if she were also sniffing the distinctly different scents in the air.

Her small face showed little emotion, but her eyes, reflecting the dazzling lights, seemed to radiate a touch of human warmth.

She seemed to notice Fang Qingyu's gaze, turned her head to meet his eyes, and her lips curved upwards very slightly, revealing an almost imperceptible arc.

Then, in a calm tone tinged with a hint of relief, she said softly:
"Welcome back."

Welcome back to this bustling, ordinary, yet vibrant world.

Fang Qingyu remained silent and did not respond immediately.

He simply took another deep breath of the air, which was filled with the smells of disinfectant and food, feeling the solid ground beneath his feet, and the blood and energy within his body that had been boiling over from the fierce battles gradually calming down.

Finally, Fang Qingyu slowly raised his hand and wiped the dirt off his face.

My gaze passed over the flashing police lights and bustling crowds, landing on the distant cityscape at night.

Finally, he withdrew his gaze, his eyes regaining their usual depth and calmness.

He responded softly, seemingly to Jiang Wei, and also to himself:

"Well, I'm back."
