Lin Qianxuan roughly estimated that his speed might have steadily surpassed ten times the speed of sound.
Moreover, this escape speed could be maintained for quite a long time.
It's just not very easy to control.
Unlike purely Water Manipulation, which can still make a 30-degree sharp turn.
In the current situation, it's difficult to stop once rushing forward.
He could only charge straight ahead.
It feels like, apart from escaping and traveling, it's not very useful for normal combat.
For normal combat, Water Manipulation combined with Divine Energy burst is enough for him to move, and Spiritual Power is better kept as an auxiliary.
Lin Qianxuan raised his hand and pointed at a piece of empty land in the Qiankun Space.
Profound Spiritual Patterns quickly formed, and as Spiritual Power gathered, a beam of Profound Light with the thickness of an arm blasted out.
Swoosh~!
A hole about fifty meters deep appeared in the ground.
This isn't because it can only hit fifty meters, but because the soil in the Qiankun Space is only about fifty meters thick.
Lin Qianxuan initially only brought in this much soil, and he planned to rely on the power of myriad phenomena to generate more with Divine Energy later on.
"The power is quite considerable."
Lin Qianxuan assessed.
It is comparable to thirty percent of his current Water Manipulation's power.
No need to compare with Divine Energy Martial Arts.
With the Sound Talisman bonus, they're not on the same level.
However, the Spiritual Cultivation System has provided Lin Qianxuan with the greatest benefit not in combat, but in the enhancement of the Dragon Bloodline.
Lin Qianxuan could feel that, with the qualitative change in Spiritual Power, the enhancement of his bloodline through development and nurturing has increased significantly.
Something seems to be brewing within the bloodline.
"Innate Divine Power?"
Lin Qianxuan speculated that it was probably this.
He had heard from Chen Long'Er that Dragon Bloodline possesses Innate Divine Powers.
As long as the bloodline develops to a certain extent, it can awaken directly.
As for Water Manipulation?
That's equivalent to a basic instinct like eating and drinking.
Such a thing can't be called Divine Power.
After a slight adjustment, Lin Qianxuan cut a piece of Lingzhi and left the Qiankun Space.
Reclining on the bed, with the Lingzhi in his mouth, the flickering arcs significantly reduced the tingling sensation.
This left Lin Qianxuan feeling a bit regretful.
Such a rare taste, yet it seemed that just after a few times, it would vanish due to the fast advancement of his bloodline.
October 23rd.
Lin Qianxuan went to the Long River to find Guagua.
He brought some Spirit Fruit for it and also cut two pieces of Lingzhi for it.
It didn't have as strong a bite as Lin Qianxuan, couldn't swallow in one gulp, but still seemed very joyful.
Lin Qianxuan could feel its spirit becoming more abundant.
The thoughts it conveyed now were more coherent, almost no different from an ordinary human.
Perhaps it was learning and improving through its interactions with humans.
October 24th.
Chen Long'Er entered the Core Formation Stage.
Without notifying Lin Qianxuan, she directly transformed into a dragon and flew to Cai County.
When Lin Qianxuan saw her, he was quite surprised.
It was a Purple Qilin True Dragon about eight or nine meters long.
It exuded an aura of nobility.
However, in comparison to Lin Qianxuan's current dragon form of over a hundred meters, she was much smaller.
Chen Long'Er reverted to human form and, shrouded in mist, arrived directly at Lin Qianxuan's balcony.
"In the Core Formation Stage?" Lin Qianxuan asked.
"Yes." Chen Long'Er nodded, "I took half a day off."
"How long did you fly?" Lin Qianxuan curiously asked.
"One hour." Chen Long'Er replied.
Not considered slow, but definitely not fast either.
However, Water Flying's low consumption is a plus.
If it were an ordinary newly Core Formation Stage cultivator, flying these over two thousand kilometers would be challenging due to the lack of Spiritual Power.
After a brief moment of warmth, Chen Long'Er started cooking for Lin Qianxuan.
She could now subsist on just water, but tasting food was still important.
As they dined together at the table, Lin Qianxuan sensed a touch of everyday warmth.
By himself, he either ordered take-out or simply gnawed on Spirit Plants and drank water.
Emphasizing on one word: lazy. He never cooked.
"Did you follow the new account I set up before?" Lin Qianxuan asked.
"Yes." Chen Long'Er nodded and said, "I received the things you sent."
"Were you on the lucky list?"
Lin Qianxuan was taken aback; he genuinely didn't know about this.
In Xuan Country, the Dragon Bloodline indeed bestowed immense Luck.
"I am on the list." Chen Long'Er said, eating her meal.
"What's your ID?"
Lin Qianxuan took out his phone, intending to search for it.
"Widow."
Lin Qianxuan's hand trembled, his expression frozen on his face.
"Let me change it for you, it doesn't sound good." Lin Qianxuan forced a smile, taking the phone from Chen Long'Er's desk.
The unlock password was Lin Qianxuan's birthday, and the wallpaper was a photo of the two of them.
When Lin Qianxuan opened her account, he found out her ID wasn't "Widow" at all, but [Wife of the Dragon King].
Chen Long'Er paused slightly in her eating, the corners of her mouth lifted, clearly delighted to have teased Lin Qianxuan.
"You're something else, don't scare me like that!"
Lin Qianxuan returned the phone to Chen Long'Er, wiping imaginary sweat from his forehead.
A false alarm, thank goodness.
"I think that name's fine, I'll change it when necessary." Chen Long'Er said.
Lin Qianxuan didn't respond to that, instead changing the subject: "How's your Visualization method going?"
"Just started, but there's still a ways to go before Divine Manifestation, maybe a month or two." Chen Long'Er said.
This efficiency was already impressive.
For an ordinary person, progressing from Refining God to Divine Manifestation might take ten or twenty years and require a lot of talent.
With the blessing of the Dragon Bloodline and a solid foundation, Chen Long'Er could reach the Divine Manifestation Realm in just a month or two.
"Just as expected of my Long'Er, really amazing." Lin Qianxuan praised.
The meal left Lin Qianxuan feeling subtle, and he decided he'd need to be more careful in the future, avoiding mentioning anything about the Gongsun sisters in front of Chen Long'Er, lest she actually change her name someday.
After the meal, Lin Qianxuan brought Chen Long'Er to his computer.
He planned to try something.
"Long'Er, can you see this icon?"
Lin Qianxuan's mouse pointed at the gray icon of "String of Destiny."
"Are you saying there's an icon here?" Chen Long'Er asked curiously.
"You don't see it?" Lin Qianxuan asked.
"No." Chen Long'Er shook her head.
Lin Qianxuan seemed to understand; it seemed this "String of Destiny" game was truly bound to him alone.
Except for him, others probably couldn't see or play it.
Chen Long'Er glanced at Lin Qianxuan, puzzled about what mystery he was playing at.
Lin Qianxuan didn't continue with the icon issue but showed her the clips he usually edited.
Among them, she watched the video of their trip to Chao Li Country again.
From the screenshots of "String of Destiny," Lin Qianxuan showed Chen Long'Er one image.
Yet it seemed she underwent cognitive correction, only seeing it as a beautiful picture, at most with a similar art style to her own, without connecting it to herself.
This further confirmed the game's uniqueness.
Later, Lin Qianxuan discovered something more terrifying.
Chen Long'Er's memory regarding "String of Destiny" was becoming fuzzy.
She already couldn't remember the moment Lin Qianxuan first showed her the icon.
A Core Formation Stage spiritual cultivator, with Dragon Bloodline.
A memory so good it's almost photographic.
Could forget such details?
Chen Long'Er certainly hadn't forgotten.
Instead, under an unknown force's correction, she forcibly ignored those things.
As Lin Qianxuan understood it, her connection with "String of Destiny" had been forcibly erased, not a trace remaining.
From start to finish, only Lin Qianxuan himself could interact with it and form a causal relationship.
Lin Qianxuan fell slightly silent, unsure of the deeper meaning behind this.
He tried using the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven to glimpse into it, but as expected, it was a blur, revealing nothing.
He couldn't see the mastermind behind it, nor whether it would produce another game.
Just like in the game, the Eyes of the Muddled Heaven couldn't glimpse information about this game itself.
A night passed without words.
The next morning, Lin Qianxuan personally drove Chen Long'Er back to Kyoto, also gifting her three large Lingzhi.
Lin Qianxuan liked eating these, and Chen Long'Er was no exception.
However, she didn't have Lin Qianxuan's good teeth and could only eat a peanut-sized piece at a time.
Her digestion ability wasn't as good either; she needed time for refining and absorption after eating.
These three large Lingzhi would probably last her a while.
Arriving at the Otherworld Bureau, Lin Qianxuan found the atmosphere was more unusual today than usual.
Staff hurried back and forth, each wearing a serious expression.
Curious, after dropping Chen Long'Er at her place, Lin Qianxuan decided to find Zhang Heng to ask about the situation.
Outside Zhang Heng's office, Lin Qianxuan's sharp hearing caught the sound of his voice.
"No matter what they try, Pinghai must be held. Director Jiang has received the message; he'll be back within five hours… A Celestial Rank? The Guest Elders from the Spirit Qi World are all at the Wu'ermu Battle Zone. Where do I suddenly get a Celestial Rank for them? Not even two, not one… Don't let him come, just keep the Antarctic Battle Zone secure! Don't leave, or if two Dao Realm cultivators get in, it'll be trouble…"
Listening to his hurried voice, Lin Qianxuan vaguely understood something.
It seemed there was a problem at the front battle zone, lacking reinforcement at the Celestial Rank level.
He thought about how his own strength could be considered Celestial Rank now, right?
Hesitant for a moment, Lin Qianxuan didn't leave but instead knocked on the door after Zhang Heng ended his call.
"Come in." Zhang Heng paused, then said.
"Director Zhang, it's me." Lin Qianxuan called out.
"Oh, it's you, Little Lin. Do you have something you need?" Zhang Heng asked.
"I saw everyone looking busy and tense; I wanted to know what happened. I heard you on the phone just now, is there trouble at the front?" Lin Qianxuan asked.
"It's not a big deal; it'll be handled soon. No need to worry." Zhang Heng shook his head.
He didn't intend to tell Lin Qianxuan too much.
In his view, though Lin Qianxuan was special, he was still a sapling, not yet ready to shoulder his responsibility; for now, they had to manage the situation.
"You need Celestial Rank level combat power, don't you?" Lin Qianxuan stated seriously, "I think, I can help!"
