Chapter 171 Extraterrestrial Visitor, Divine Child in Seclusion
“That’s right. Everyone wants to be a Morning Star. I have a few promising talents in my hands. Perhaps we can try to gain their recognition and even make them our chosen ones.” Qing Cang was very sincere and made no attempt to hide anything.
This is a rare opportunity; otherwise, once the spiritual essence is retrieved, it will inevitably lead to a fierce struggle, and the difficulty of seeking it again will increase exponentially.
The bronze giant pondered for a moment, "Someone on that planet has already gained recognition. After all, it's your uncle's home planet, and it's rare for another talented person to be born there."
"Master!" Qingcang hurriedly knelt down and said, "I only brought three people with me, I beg you to grant my request!"
"Hmm..." The bronze giant remained silent for a moment before saying, "If that's the case, then I grant your request."
A flicker of joy crossed Qingcang's eyes, but he was immediately met with a faint warning from the bronze giant:
"Only one rule: those who have been approved should not be killed without authorization."
"Qingcang dares not!" He felt a chill in his heart and was about to leave.
Just then, the bronze giant suddenly let out a soft exclamation and looked at the trembling red statue beside him with considerable surprise.
“Strange…” he said.
"Master, what's wrong?" Qingcang asked, puzzled.
"Another one has been recognized. Interesting." The bronze giant seemed to be pondering.
"Another one?" Qingcang was also taken aback and couldn't help but say, "That Crimson Thunder Star is not only shrouded and eroded by the Nether Mist, but it has also been targeted by the Ghost God for a long time. Its population is dwindling. How can two people be recognized?"
He was well aware of the high level of insight that Morning Star possessed.
He was truly surprised to see two people being recognized in succession.
"Could it be... that there are outsiders?"
A thought suddenly occurred to Qing Cang, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious. If a chosen one were to be born, it would be troublesome.
Perhaps it was the appearance of two people who had been recognized that piqued the bronze giant's interest even more, "Crimson Lightning..."
With a flick of his wrist, a beam of bronze light shot out, condensing into hundreds of intricate components. Drawn by an invisible force, they made a continuous clicking sound as they assembled.
When it landed in front of Qingcang, it had already turned into a palm-sized bronze figure, which then disappeared into Qingcang's body.
Qingcang sighed inwardly; now he had no choice but to follow the rules.
“Go,” said the bronze giant, and Qingcang responded and retreated.
…………
At the city entry inspection station, a group of people with restrained expressions were disembarking from a dilapidated spaceship. They didn't look very old.
They were immediately ushered to the side and questioned by the supervisors.
"People from Gujiang City?" The examiner looked at the documents, his gaze sweeping over everyone in front of him with suspicion.
"It's already mid-June, why are you so slow? According to the reports from your city, you should have arrived half a month ago."
A middle-aged man, who looked like the person in charge, gave a wry smile and showed his severed arm wrapped in bandages: "I encountered a mutant on the way and barely survived after a hard fight."
"A mutant?" The examiner's expression softened, but he didn't believe it easily. He immediately accessed the spaceship's log and began searching.
The dilapidated spaceship was somewhat outdated, but it had several external probes that recorded the attack by the mutated species, a flock of ferocious birds with blue wings.
"It's actually an Icewing Bird..." The examiner's expression changed slightly. "This is a third-order gregarious mutant species."
"Yes..." A look of regret appeared on the middle-aged man's face, "It was only thanks to the desperate efforts of more than a dozen brothers that we were able to barely lure them away."
The inspector sighed, then smiled. "Alright, brother, it's just a routine check, don't mind it, the inspections have been quite strict lately."
The middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "It's alright, it's nothing."
The examiner thought for a moment and then reminded him, "However, the assessments of all the institutions in the city have been suspended. You will probably have to stay in Yingfeng for a while."
"The assessment has been suspended?" The middle-aged man looked dazed. He had been unable to communicate during the journey and was unaware of the news. He quickly inquired about the specific situation.
Upon learning that there was no definite time for the resumption of the assessment, he couldn't help but show his anxiety. "What... what should I do? I didn't bring much money with me. I also lost a lot of the precious metals I prepared on the way because of the attacks by the mutants."
The inspector immediately reassured him, "You don't need to worry about that. Ying Feng has arranged accommodations for everyone. He will cover the basic food and lodging, but you will have to pay for any additional expenses."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ying Feng is indeed very thoughtful."
After the identity documents were distributed, everyone entered the city. Most of the young people in Gujiang City were very curious about Ying Feng and looked him up and down as they walked.
One of them, with a bright smile on his face, like the others, exclaimed in surprise at Ying Feng's various novel gadgets, but in his heart he was thinking...
"I don't know who it was that saw through the faceless shell I created."
The faceless believers in Yingfeng City had long been wiped out, and it would take some time for new ones to infiltrate and gather information.
To this day, he still doesn't know what happened in Yingfeng City that caused the expensive vessel he created at great cost to perish.
Of course, investigating why the carrier was destroyed was only one of his goals.
"Let's throw out some bait first, and then you can take it."
To break through Yingfeng? He had no intention of doing something so thankless. His only goal from beginning to end was to draw out the vast majority of the forces in Yingfeng.
Hmm... this guy... seems to have a distant cousin in the courtroom, his status is quite good, what's his name again?
He searched his memory and quickly found that the name was He Kang.
The boy's smile became even brighter and more radiant.
.........
"I will not forget my promise. Just let me know when the Chief is ready to depart."
Everyone had returned to the courtroom, where Wu Chenpei was talking with Chong Jingtian, seemingly having regained his composure.
Chongjingtian was in high spirits, and his smile became even more gentle. "The Holy Envoy is a man of his word. He will be departing in the next two days, so please make preparations."
"Understood." Wu Chenpei nodded, then added, "Also, Chief, don't forget to contact the other two cities to restart the ruins."
"Don't worry, we've already made contact." Chong Jingtian chuckled. The situation was different now. With Su Chen in hand, he was even more eager than Wu Chenpei to open the ruins as soon as possible.
Wu Chenpei also realized this, and felt disgusted as if he had swallowed a fly. He had no energy to say anything more, so he gave a few instructions and left.
Only after they boarded the hovercar and used energy to conceal themselves, releasing their long-suppressed emotions, did the holy envoy's face uncontrollably darken.
Beside him sat Hongxuan, whose face was equally somber.
Neither of them spoke immediately; the events of the day had disrupted all their thoughts and plans.
The fact that Wu Chenpei could still manage a few words with Chong Jingtian was a testament to his years of self-control. "Su Chen must die!" Hong Xuan suddenly spoke, his voice cold and ruthless.
Upon hearing Hongxuan's words, Wu Chenpei frowned: "Kill him in the courtroom? How will we ever leave? Let's not talk about this again."
Did they really think Ying Feng wouldn't dare to overturn the table?
Did you really think Xia Hanshi was too old to move?
“You…lost your composure,” Wu Chenpei emphasized further.
Hongxuan's expression turned serious, and he sighed again, explaining, "This is not a personal grudge, nor do I have any personal grudge against him, but if he were here, I wouldn't be confident of being chosen."
He spoke with absolute certainty, and Wu Chenpei frowned. He had suspected this before, but after Hongxuan confirmed it, it felt different. He couldn't help but say:
"No confidence at all? Even if you become a Saint?"
After the saints obtained it, they studied it carefully and found that the requirements were indeed strict in some aspects, but not without any way to achieve them.
Yuan Du has already researched a feasible method, and while waiting to go to the ruins, there is a 70% chance that Hong Xuan can take up the job, and the job effect can reach nearly 50%.
Hongxuan's expression shifted, and he said helplessly, "You don't understand."
"The scene at that time was called 'the appearance of the Spirit Dragon Cauldron,' which should have occurred at the birth of the chosen person and was a sign of selection."
“If it weren’t for the incomplete spirituality, Su Chen would already be the chosen one. I’m afraid he and the Crimson Flame Thunder Venerable would be perfectly compatible.”
The only possibility that Su Chen's talent is not as good as his is that he still received high recognition, which is that he is extremely well-suited to the profession.
Career fit... This is an innate factor that is completely beyond our control. Hongxuan felt a surge of frustration. After years of lying low, this kind of mishap had occurred when the time came.
“A perfect match.” Wu Chenpei’s heart trembled. After a long while, he said in a tone full of extremely complex emotions, “Ying Feng… how could he have found such a person?”
"I want to know too!" Hongxuan couldn't help but exclaim.
Wu Chenpei ignored his rudeness and said slowly, "We can't touch him in Yingfeng, so we can only wait until we're on our way to the ruins."
He made the decision, and Yuandu invested too much in it. Now that things have come to this point, there's no turning back.
Hongxuan was not surprised by his decision, but said in a deep voice, "It must be done before spiritual completeness."
Wu Chenpei nodded silently.
.........
"Teacher, is it that ruin?" Su Chen asked Xia Hanshi in a low voice as he watched Wu Chenpei and the other person leave.
"Hmm." Xia Hanshi clearly knew what Su Chen meant by asking, and his expression was complicated. "It's the ruins I originally wanted you to go to."
“That half of the stone slab was found in those ruins. Wu Chenpei and his brother were there at the time. We killed his brother and severely injured him before we were able to steal it.”
Xia Hanshi spoke the second half of his sentence casually, but Su Chen couldn't help but be surprised, "Killed his brother?"
He had met Wu Chenpei several times, including today and the time on the arena. He always seemed calm and friendly when interacting with Chong Jingtian and the others.
I never imagined that the two sides had such a deep-seated hatred.
"A barking dog doesn't bite." Xia Hanshi said meaningfully. Wei Yufan, who was next to him, silently turned and left, while Ming Lin moved over a few steps with great curiosity.
"How did the ruins become jointly managed by the four cities?" Su Chen asked curiously. He had heard Old Sang mention it before, but he hadn't asked in detail at the time.
"After the stone slab was seized, Yuan Du was unwilling to accept defeat and joined forces with the other two cities to put pressure on us. We had no choice but to open up," Chong Jingtian explained.
Yuandu is weaker than Yingfeng, but if it unites with the other two cities, the situation will be reversed.
"If that's the case, will the other two cities be willing to open the ruins?" Su Chen couldn't help but wonder.
He and Hongxuan had no connection with Lieyang or Tianqing. No matter who was chosen, the other two cities would not receive any benefits.
Chongjingtian said casually, "We have already reached an agreement with Yuandu, and they can't refuse even if they want to."
Oh… Su Chen suddenly realized that, in essence, Lieyang and Tianqing were just a joint effort by Yuandu to fight against Ying Feng.
Now that Yingfeng and Yuandu have reached an agreement, the remaining two cities have no choice but to cooperate.
"Moreover, every now and then, we open those ruins to explore and see if we can find anything unexpected." Jiang Shumo added from the side, explaining to him, "Lieyang and Tianqing don't know anything about this profession."
Su Chen nodded, but he keenly sensed the change in Judge Jiang's attitude. Although his attitude towards him before was not bad, he always seemed to be scrutinizing him.
Now, the examination reveals that what has vanished without a trace is unprecedentedly mild.
"Once we've dealt with the Faceless Ghost cultists, we'll head to that ruin to achieve spiritual unity. Get ready." Chongjingtian patted his shoulder heavily.
Wang Ting... If things were to proceed according to the original plan, Su Chen replacing Hong Xuan would not only solve the thorny problem of the Holy Banquet.
"Higher-level body tempering and meditation methods are also very important to us..." Chong Jingtian couldn't help but think. If he didn't lack the meditation and body tempering methods corresponding to the seventh level, his strength would be much greater.
Putting everything else aside, Yingfeng will definitely produce eighth-tier professionals in the future.
"Yes." Su Chen nodded, while Chong Jingtian quickly went to handle the next steps.
"Xia Hanshi..." Pu Zhenghong called out hesitantly before leaving, "When Su Chen went to the ruins later..."
"None of your business." Xia Hanshi said rudely, grabbing Su Chen and turning to leave.
Pu Zhenghong's face darkened, and he turned and left.
What deep-seated hatred do these two have?
Su Chen muttered to himself, originally wanting to ask Old Pu how he managed to imprint the symbols on the stone slab onto the defensive spirit ring.
That stupid spirituality cannot even be seen by those who are recognized; the professional requirements can only be revealed after the spirituality is complete.
“Su Chen…” Ming Lin caught up, glanced at Xia Hanshi walking ahead, hesitated for a long time, and then asked through gritted teeth, “What are the requirements to be recognized?”
Minglin was somewhat unwilling to accept that he hadn't taken notes after going in, and scratched his head in frustration.
"I don't know either." Su Chen shook his head and could only vaguely say, "Both talents can't be low, right?"
"Dual talents?" Ming Lin was disheartened and cursed under his breath, thinking, "Where did these freaks come from?"
After a moment, he composed himself and asked curiously, "Is that so-called 'Great Venerable' a spiritual profession or a physical profession?"
"This..." Su Chen was taken aback. He hadn't really thought about this question. After thinking for a while, he said, "It should be the physical side."
He suddenly thought of a question: if the Great Venerable is a physical being, then should he also find a mental being-based Morning Star rank profession?
