Chapter 1402: Preparing for Departure
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was painstakingly obvious that the difference between the first and second sketch were only slight, and they did not look like Chen Xiaobei at all.
Lu Bu was only so convinced and certain because he was under the influence of the Mirage Mystifying Fan’s Special Ability.
To put it simply, the second sketch was like a desert. What the others saw was a sketch that did not look like Chen Xiaobei, but what Lu Bu saw was an illusion like a mirage.
And that illusion made it look exactly like Chen Xiaobei.
That was why Lu Bu insisted that the second sketch could help them find Chen Xiaobei.
Lu Mingjun and his family had never seen Chen Xiaobei before. Since Lu Bu was so sure, they had nothing to say.
“Alright! We’ll do as Mr. Lu says. We’ll use the second sketch. Make as many copies as you can, paste it all over the city! We’ll do a thorough search!”
Once Lu Mingjun gave the orders, the core members of the Lu family immediately set out to work.
Lu Bu was very excited, as though they were going to catch Chen Xiaobei at once. He rubbed his palms together, eager to solve the problem that was Chen Xiaobei and rescue Diao Chan.
This was going to be a sleepless night for the Lus.
But our friend Chen Xiaobei could return to the secret space with peace in his heart, and could prepare for the Elite Hunting Competition.
If they could find Chen Xiaobei based on the sketch, it would be a miracle.
The Mirage Mystifying Fan’s effect would only last for seven days. After that, Chen Xiaobei had to pump in some Spiritual Qis into the Mirage Mystifying Fan, and the effect will continue to last.
Lu Bu would never be able to find Chen Xiaobei in this life.
In the Secret Space.
Chen Xiaobei was lying comfortably on his bed as he began to reflect on the progress of the situation.
“Right now, the situation with Lu Bu has been stabilized. Every day the Mirage Mystifying Fan’s Special Ability does not wear off for another day so he won’t be able to find me. Also, after visiting the Lus, I can confirm that the key I possess is the Overgrown Forest Hidden Treasure’s key! And only the Lu family members know where the hidden treasure is!”
“I’ll have to wait for the hunt, find a way to take Lu Changwei captive, feed him a Heavenly Dog Biscuit, and ask him to reveal the location of the hidden treasure! He can also become my chess piece in the Lu family! That’ll be really useful in the near future! Right now when the day comes, there will only be two days before the hunting competition. The homemade Heavenly Dog Biscuit might have to wait until after the hunting competition! The competition would probably last a few days, that should be enough time to achieve my goal!
Chen Xiaobei sorted everything out and came up with a plan. All there was left to do now was to wait for departure.
“I can’t waste anymore time! I will start cultivating until right before we are supposed to depart. I’ll try and maximise as much combat power as I can!”
No doubt, strength was the foundation of all operations. The stronger he was, the better he got at solving problems.
Chen Xiaobei sat up on his bed, crossed his legs and began to channel The Scripture of Heaven and Earth to break down the Demonic Beast Essence in his body!
Because he did not have sufficient years in his lifespan, Chen Xiaobei could not use the Daylight Cache to quicken the process.
But the Blood Descendants’ Dark Powers increases the speed at which the Demonic Beast Essence was digested – a hundred times faster than most people!
With the help of The Scripture of Heaven and Earth, Chen Xiaobei’s cultivating speed was a thousand times faster than the regular person’s!
At every hour, Chen Xiaobei’s health and combat power would increase by 100. It was unbelievably fast!
Time passed by pretty quickly.
Soon, 30 hours had already passed, and it was the morning of the third day.
When Chen Xiaobei’s phone rang, Chen Xiaobei had stopped cultivating, regulated his breathing, and relaxed himself.
When he picked up his ringing phone, he saw that it was Wenren Muyue calling.
Chen Xiaobei picked up immediately. “Lady Muyue. Are you calling me because it’s time to depart?”
Wenren Muyue replied, “Yes! Yes! I can’t wait anymore. I really want to go to Overgrown Forest Planet now! Mr. Chen, are you prepared?”
Chen Xiaobei chuckled. “I don’t need to prepare anything. I can leave any time.”
Wenren Muyue said excitedly, “That’s great! I’ll send a car over to pick you up now!”
“Alright! Oh, please remember to bring the two Spiritual Medicine I asked your father to find. In any event we come across the third one, I can cure you!”
“Alright! Thank you for reminding me, Mr. Chen!”
After he hung up, Chen Xiaobei stretched and then checked his cultivation using his Netherspirit Battlescouter.
Ding!
[Cultivation: Middle phase of Celestial Cultivation; Lifespan: 70 years; Health: 137,000; Combat power: 101,700]
The Netherspirit Battlescouted revealed Chen Xiaobei’s latest combat power.
“3,000 combat power and 3,000 health in 30 hours!” Chen Xiaobei was excited. “That means that if I use the Primordial Witch King Combat Enhancement Training Manual, I can wield 132,210 combat power! On top of that, because I ate the two Five-star Spiritual Instruments, my health can support the full blast of my combat power! I won’t lose any excess combat power!”
“This way, my health and my combat power can break through to the 130,000-pinnacle phase of Celestial Cultivation! This would mean that I can fight anyone below Ethereal Cultivations! More importantly, my actual combat power has already broken through to 100,000. I only need to reach 130,000, then I can eat the Skybreaking Cultivating Pill and break through to Ethereal Cultivation!” Chen Xiaobei chuckled to himself. “Then I won’t need to use Magical Items to defeat Lu Changwei!”
In Silver Plume City.
Wenren Muyue sent a flying car to pick Chen Xiaobei up and sent him to the center of the inner city, where a large portal stood.
No doubt, travelling to another planet through the portal was the fastest way.
At present, a sea of people had gathered around the portal. Tens of thousands of young Silver Plume Nobles had assembled, waiting to go through the portal.
Based on this scenario alone, it was pretty evident that the Elite Hunting Competition would benefit many of them.
The Demonic Beasts’ bodies and Beast Cores were all rich earnings and can be exchanged for many Spiritual Stones.
The combat experience was even more valuable, something you could not learn inside the classroom.
If they managed to a get placing, they would be rewarded by the Temple and earn themselves some glory, and make a name for themselves!
Because of these potential benefits, many young people were leaving their nests.
There would probably be about a million of these young people from the entire Northern Wilderness Starfield joining this hunt!
Chen Xiaobei’s expectations soared at the thought of this. He really wanted to know what Overgrown Forest planet looked like. Could it handle having so many people hunting on it?
“Mr. Chen! I’m here! Come over! It’s our turn!” An angelic voice called out.
It belonged to Wenren Muyue, who was standing on tippytoes, waving enthusiastically at Chen Xiaobei.
