I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

Chapter 446: 【355】King Yanwang himself! Seize the spiritual path of heaven and earth! (4K for monthly ticket and official version)_2
 

Elder Wuji’s smile became somewhat unnatural as soon as he said this.

He cleared his throat.

“It’s not that I’m stingy, but dragon blood itself is a scarce material. The amounts I’ve given you twice already amount to the annual total of other God Sons. However, since you’ve protected the ancient village this time, I can try to obtain another bottle for you.”

“Thank you for your mercy, Elder.” Pei Jinye saw this and didn’t push his luck, chuckling hehe.

Elder Wuji shook his head and didn’t continue on this topic.

Standing with Pei Jinye on a high slope, looking at the distant, faintly visible village houses, he said expressionlessly, “We’ve worked hard to build this secret living place, yet the outside world thinks we’ve created a superweapon that can threaten the entire Federation. Don’t you think it’s funny?”

Pei Jinye silently looked on.

Indeed it was funny.

From this point of view, the Old Gods Association wasn’t as insanely evil as depicted by the outside world.

“We spare no effort in protecting this place, yet the world, fooled by the Federation, believes we are really deploying some world-ending superweapon…” Elder Wuji heaved a light sigh, “The people misled by the Federation are both laughable and lamentable.”

Elder Wuji did not dwell on this topic, looking at the houses with wisps of cooking smoke rising softly, he said, “The number of people living here is three hundred and seventeen, with only seventy-eight children left, the rest are all elderly who wouldn’t hurt a fly.”

“No able-bodied adults?” Pei Jinye asked, surprised.

“All Awakeners leave the ancient village and hardly ever come back, even if injured,” Elder Wuji said softly. “This isn’t your first time here, do you have any thoughts?”

“It’s quite good,” Pei Jinye said candidly, meeting Elder Wuji’s gaze, “peaceful and carefree living, it’s rare indeed.”

Elder Wuji nodded slowly: “Mo Sang is a seasoned Extraordinary Third Rank Awakener, rumored to be on the verge of entering the Fourth Rank. There’s an issue with his identity, according to the intelligence I currently hold…”

“It’s the Holy Alliance,” Pei Jinye said calmly.

Elder Wuji’s attention was drawn away, looking back at Pei Jinye.

“Mo Sang, real name Liu Bo, is an intelligence officer of the Holy Alliance,” Pei Jinye mused. “My people could only find out this much; the specifics may have to be investigated by you and your colleagues.”

“I’m surprised you could find out so much,” Elder Wuji looked deeply at Pei Jinye without probing how he was able to gather so much intelligence.

“The information I have also confirms this. The Holy Alliance… those fellows are starting to stir up trouble again.”

“Elder, are you aware of the Holy Alliance?” Pei Jinye’s words didn’t pick any fault,

Elder Wuji didn’t think too much: “I had a run-in with them once. Despite this organization’s right-sounding name, they’re nothing but a bunch of opportunistic scoundrels. Their supernatural abilities are all quite unorthodox… Be very cautious when dealing with them in the future.

“As far as I know, the deity behind Mo Sang is called Barton. I’ve fought with him before, his Extraordinary power is quite unorthodox… something like damage transfer, the damage caused by my punch to him would transfer onto me.”

Pei Jinye immediately became interested upon hearing this: “Does the Elder know where he is now?”

Elder Wuji was startled and then laughed wryly: “When I fought him, he was already a Sixth Rank Extraordinary, and by now, his strength must be at least Eighth Rank. You should stop thinking about looking for him, you’re not his match yet.”

Under the mask, Pei Jinye couldn’t help but pull a face.

Eighth Rank…

He smoothly changed the subject: “Has this place been exposed yet?”

Elder Wuji’s eyes revealed a slyness: “Actually, this place is a Cave Heaven Land of Bliss, able to be hidden in any space, undiscoverable by others…”

Pei Jinye was stunned.

Cave Heaven Land of Bliss?

“In the future, when you take over the Old Gods Association, I will leave this place to you,” Elder Wuji sighed lightly. “But it’s too early for that now, at least reach the Fifth Rank… Although Fifth Rank is still quite reluctant, let’s say Seventh Rank.”

“…”

Pei Jinye’s gaze was distant.

Elder, are you moonlighting as a baker?

The dream you paint is quite grand,

But if this Cave Heaven Land of Bliss really is a treasure that could be tucked into the void… he was indeed tempted.

After a few more glances, Pei Jinye decisively looked away.

Leave the pie that can’t be eaten immediately for baiting others.

Before long.

He left the ancient village.

Pei Jinye did not immediately return but, after separating from Lou Hai, appeared at the coordinates in the western part of Central State.

Jiang Xinrun had sent a message, suspecting the discovery of spirit ore.

Qi Zhonglu was no fool.

He didn’t hand over the coordinates straight away, but now he took the initiative to pass them on through Sun Ruofan, which meant he dare not take the spirit mine for himself.

…

During the trip to the Western Continent, he was busy for more than an hour, and Pei Jinye had no time to check his communicator.

He had blocked all external messages during combat, so as not to get disturbed.

He had just lifted the block, and his head began to buzz.

First to pop up was a message about Silver Art.

“So boring… so boring… so boring… Does the Demon King have any tasks for me?”

“Since the last task I gave you has been 789… Goodness, it’s been so many days… Does that really mean there are no tasks for me?”

“… All the messages are from Little Red Luo.”

“That’s not true at all! I saw the news, something big happened in the Western Continent again, did you go? You actually went without me and Silver Art, you’ve mixed in!!!”

“…”

A dozen consecutive messages.

Pei Jinye’s head was buzzing.

“It’s such a pity that Red Luo isn’t doing her homework at her age.”

He sent a private message to Silver Art.

Glancing at the sky, he immediately activated the Light System.

In almost a single breath, he had already arrived in the Western part of Central State.

…

“Family Head?”

The people of the Jiang family were taken aback when they saw the old master appear, thinking their eyes were deceiving them.

Jiang Xinrun quickly approached, bowing seriously, “Family Head.”

He noticed a mysterious person in a black robe with a mask following the Family Head and was somewhat curious, but said nothing.

“You’re right, this is a Spirit Ore vein.” Pei Jinye’s powerful Perceptual Power spread out and indeed sensed the fluctuations of Spiritual Energy a hundred meters beneath the ground.

This was indeed a Spirit Ore vein.

Although it was small, the resources contained within were enough to give Pei Jinye hope for improvement.

“Arrange for people to station themselves here immediately.”

As Pei Jinye was speaking, a series of urgent noises suddenly came from the distant mountains and forests.

Jiang Xinrun led his team to form a circle, protecting Pei Jinye in front of them.

Two groups of people in the distance were chasing and fleeing. The fleeing group was clearly losing ground, and both groups were rushing this way.

“Elder.” Jiang Xinrun narrowed his eyes, with his hand already on the hilt of his sword.

“Don’t bother with them.”

Pei Jinye glanced over without concern and began sketching on a blueprint.

“Save me, I am the young master of Ghost Mountain City Dingcheng International, please, save me…” In the fleeing crowd, a blood-covered youth was shouting for help.

However, Pei Jinye had no intention of intervening.

At this moment, his eyes were only on the Spirit Ore beneath his feet.

How to mine it without attracting attention was a significant problem.

Once the existence of the Spirit Ore vein was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Moreover, this place was some distance from Da Peng City, and if things got out of hand, the people of the Jiang family wouldn’t be able to reach it in time.

As Pei Jinye pondered, the pursuers arrived straight in front of them.

“Get out of the way!” Jiang Xinrun unsheathed his sword halfway, his stern voice forcing the others back.

The young man claiming to be the young master looked at him with resentment, as if trying to remember their faces, then turned to leave—when “pfft!”

A sword tip suddenly pierced through his chest, his eyes widening dramatically.

Pei Jinye was holding the other end of the sword, disregarding the astonishment of both parties, and casually rested his hand on the youth’s head, speaking calmly, “I don’t like the look in your eyes.”

He looked up at the youth’s companions, three men and women, all with expressions of shock and rage.

“You actually killed Young Master Huang, you!!!”

“Pfft—”

The Sword Light surged.

Three heads flew off simultaneously.

“Killed is killed, why so much nonsense.”

Pei Jinye looked up to the youths and strong men coming forward with weapons, threw the sword to Jiang Xinrun, “Kill them all, leave no one alive! Not a word of this must leak from here!”

“Yes!”

Almost the moment he grasped the sword, Jiang Xinrun, with more than a dozen Jiang family elites, charged forward.

Behind them was the sound of battle.

Pei Jinye was unperturbed, estimating with his eyes the true reserves of this Spirit Ore vein!
