BXBX NOVEL Chapter 59 - Departure?
Lin Wu truly had the confidence that he could kill the three men. He did so because he had the advantage of surprise, not to mention that with radiation manipulation he could kill them anytime as long as they stayed in the forbidden zone.
His innate skill of Radiation manipulation became a trump card which was much more stronger than he had expected.
\'Who would have thought that radiation and spirit qi doesn\'t mix well… at least not in this case, there may be other differences in cultivators.\' Lin Wu thought to himself.
The next step that Lin Wu had planned was to divert the attention of the three men on a completely different thing. For this, he used nothing but the fragment of the beast carapace that he had with him all this time. It was this very fragment that had killed the nascent soul realm cultivator, and Lin Wu was sure that if he incited their curiosity, Shirong would definitely take interest in it.
Lin Wu already knew that the man was a bit stubborn and did not want to go back empty handed, even going so far as to risk his own life along with two others. Thus he fitted perfectly in Lin Wu\'s plan and acted just as he had hoped for.
Since Shirong was the Young Master of a powerful clan, Lin Wu reckoned that he could use their resources and connections to search for that beast. Though the biggest benefit was Shirong himself, Lin Wu was sure that he could leech off of him comfortably.
"Hehehe, I got you right where I want you. Your lives are in my control now!" Lin Wu uttered in the same evil tone that he had come to like.
He now understood why villains liked to monologue so much, it was because it simply made them feel cool. And if they got to shock their enemy, the benefit was just an extra cherry on top.
Shirong and the two men were now ascending through the water and were returning to the surface. They had given up on finding anything else and had come to terms with the fact that they had truly risked their lives for an unassuming piece of rock.
Ye Dai used all his experience in investigation and appraisal, and yet he could not find anything special with the rock. But this only made him more interested, as if it were a common rock, he would have gotten at least some results. Unexpectedly, though, all his routes took him to the same dead end.
"Still can\'t find anything?" Shirong questioned with furrowed brows.
"Unfortunately yes, Young Master Shirong. It seems like I\'ll need some additional tools to appraise it, there is only so much I can do right now and with my cultivation base reduced I can\'t fully use my skills either." Ye Dai answered with a crestfallen expression.
~Sigh~
"Leave it for now. I\'ll have it looked over at the clan." Shirong replied.
Ye Dai simply nodded in response, and the three men soon reached the top of the crater. After reaching there, they took one last look and then flew away to the direction they had come from. Their original plan was to actually check the entire forbidden zone, but now with all the stuff that happened they did not want to take that risk.
They had already made a lot of losses, and they definitely did not want to add to that. About five minutes had passed and the three men were still flying. Bei Wen looked over at the spear in Shirong\'s hand and thought of something.
"Young Master Shirong, why haven\'t you put the spear in your spatial storage ring?" Bei Wen questioned curiously.
Bei Wen could not think of a reason behind this. The spear was quite heavy and needed to be held on by using spirit qi to reinforce their arms, otherwise they would not be able to lift it. This was a constant use of spirit qi, and considering the condition they were in right now was a waste.
Lin Wu also became interested in Bei Wen\'s words and wondered why Shirong had not done so. He had a spatial storage ring, thus it was the most obvious thing to keep a valuable item in it rather than carrying it out in the open like this. That took an object that was heavy as an elephant.
"Pseudo immortal tools and weapons cannot be stored into any spatial storage treasures. Their mere presence can destroy most spatial storage treasures and thus most of them can\'t even be put if one wants to try it." Shirong answered.
"But Young Master Shirong isn\'t your spatial storage treasure a high grade one? It should technically be able to hold it, shouldn\'t it? You may as well try it if it works. I mean, we already know this is a rather unique treasure. Who knows what else is possible with it?" Ye Dai asked.
Shirong thought over it and reckoned that it was at least worth the try.
He activated his ring and willed for the spear to enter the ring. Just as he did then, a string of notifications appeared in front of Lin Wu.
~Ding~
——
DETECTED: New interface channel found.
IDENTIFIED: Interface channel is classified as a minor spatial dimension.
COMPUTATIONAL A.I.: Activated.
ANALYZING PARAMETERS: New variables found.
ANALYSIS COMPLETED: New simulated function now available = Virtual Ring Interface
COMPUTATIONAL A.I.: Shutting down.
NOTIFICATION: Does the host want to enter the ring? The system has established a simulated function and the host can exit and enter at will.
——
Lin Wu was unimpressed by the System\'s ability to do this and he noticed that the computational A.I. had been activated again. Lin Wu was still a bit confused about what that was, but had not asked the system about it. Though Lin Wu did know that there were a lot of functions that were unavailable to him due to the \'lack of resources\' as the system called it and attributed this to it as well.
"Alright, system I\'ll allow it."
