Chapter 149 Chapter 149 Golden Dragon
In the palm of Long Qi's hand, a golden dragon the size of a palm was hovering in a transparent golden sphere, riding on the clouds.
The dragon's head is held high, its whiskers are long and flowing, and its eyes are like burning golden flames, appearing full of wisdom and majesty.
Its entire body shone with a brilliant golden light, and each scale was extremely delicate, appearing shimmering and sharp. Under the light, it looked even more dazzling.
The dragon's body twisted and turned, its movements as graceful and agile as flowing water. Inside the sphere, it sometimes coiled, sometimes stretched. But its gaze remained fixed on Ye Ning's direction.
While looking majestic and sacred, Ye Ning also felt that it was a bit cute.
Ye Ning threw a ball of supernatural power to feed it.
The golden dragon absorbed it quickly, and the whole dragon jumped for joy.
It is still a dragon, but not the animal form of Long Qi, but the form of the dragon in mythology.
The dragon in mythology can soar above the nine heavens, shuttle through the clouds, call the wind and rain, summon thunder and lightning, and even change into various forms at will. It is the most magical and noble existence in nature.
However, in this world, there are no dragons of that shape, nor are there any mythological stories that she is familiar with.
So when this form appeared, the spirit immediately accepted it with pleasure.
Then it slept for another two days before finally breaking out of the shell.
During those two days, Ye Ning also found a lot of information about dragons for Long Qi. She went into great detail, including scales, skin texture, and even pupils.
Whenever Ye Ning finds an opportunity, she will brainwash it, telling it that dragons are the most noble creatures in the world, that dragons are not restricted and can transform into any creature they want.
However, it still maintains the form of a dragon, and it is unknown whether it can change.
Ye Ning poked it and looked at Xiluo Si again, "Can you see it?"
Siros frowned slightly, his expression serious.
"I can't see it, but I can feel it."
There was nothing in his sight, but he could feel the breath and energy.
It was the same aura Long Qi exuded while asleep. It was an indescribably powerful aura that made his heart beat faster. Every breath he took felt a sense of oppression. Yet, he knew this oppression was not malicious. At the same time, a sense of instinctive awe rose from deep within him, a natural desire to succumb.
Siros: "So, Long Qi has successfully awakened?"
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a serious expression, he began to mobilize his mental strength. In an instant, the air around him seemed to tremble, and an invisible force slowly surged.
Like a wisp of silk, the clear water flowed gently into Long Qi's palm. The water swirled and entwined, soon revealing a hollow sphere within Long Qi's palm. The sphere's surface shimmered with the salty, moist air of the ocean.
Siros stared at the hollow sphere intently, with a strong curiosity in his heart.
What exactly is this feeling of power...
Ye Ning asked him this and was able to interact with it, proving that there must be something in Long Qi's palm that they could see.
He tried to use the water flow to explore the secrets within the sphere, but almost as soon as he had this idea, it was as if the other party had keenly discovered it. A strong sense of repulsion and pressure came over him like a tide, and Xilos was startled.
The next second, the water wrapped around the surface of the sphere seemed to be hit by an irresistible force and splashed back instantly.
The three of them were sitting on a sofa, forming a slight triangle. Ye Ning reacted quickly and retreated instantly, splashing water in the air like countless sparkling pearls.
Then most of the water droplets followed the same trajectory and fell on Xilos.
The water flow was not heavy, but it soaked Siros's face. His skin, wet by the water droplets, was like delicate white jade, emitting a lustrous and fair luster.
The water flowed down his jawline. He raised his hand and gently wiped the water droplets off his face with his slender fingers.
There was still a look of shock on Siros's face, but it did not affect his beauty at all.
Ye Ning took out a handkerchief from her pocket and handed it over.
When Silos saw her handing him a handkerchief, he immediately gave her a bright smile, then took the handkerchief and started to wipe himself.
Ye Ning's handkerchiefs also smell of plants.
Siros sniffed it, slowly wiped the water off his face, and then asked, "What on earth is this?"
Ye Ning stretched out her hand and took the golden dragon from Long Qi's hand.
She held the golden ball in her hand and handed it to Xilos, "Would you like to touch it?"
If you can't see it but you can feel it, I don't know if you can touch it.
The moment she handed it over, Silos subconsciously took two steps back, even his upper body retreated.
The feeling of rejection and pressure from the previous contact still lingered in his mind, and his body even maintained a vigilant posture for a moment.
Ye Ning patted the golden dragon and injected it with another supernatural power.
She looked at Silos and said, "It's okay, feel free to touch it."
The sense of oppression emanating from the sphere was instantly covered by Ye Ning's special ability.
Silos was really curious about what this was. His slender fingers bent slightly, with a hint of caution and anticipation.
When his fingertips lightly touched the surface of the outer sphere, a strange feeling suddenly came over him. He unconsciously explored the surface of the sphere with his fingertips.
Smooth and slightly cool, you can feel some extremely strong vitality.
The aura was exactly the same as Long Qi's, as if he himself was inside this sphere, but at this moment he was clearly sitting on the other side of Ye Ning.
Siros: "I can touch it."
Ye Ning's eyes lit up, "You can feel it, you can touch it, but you can't see it, right?"
Xilos nodded and gave Ye Ning a definite answer again.
This should be considered a good thing. If no one else can see it, then they don't have to hide their spiritual body all the time.
During this period, I didn't dare let it out for fear of being seen.
And if no one can see it, it will be very convenient to use the spiritual body to do something in the future.
Xiluosi looked at Ye Ning and softened his tone, "What on earth is this?"
Ye Ning touched the golden dragon in her hand and said, "It's Long Qi's spirit body."
She roughly explained to Silos the origin of this thing.
"You mean, this is an entity formed by the gathering of spiritual power?" Silos's face was full of disbelief. His eyes were fixed on the invisible spiritual body in front of him, and his heart was filled with shock and confusion.
"Can mental energy be combined into another being with independent consciousness?"
If mental power can really be gathered into an existence with independent consciousness, then it will completely change the understanding of mental power on the Dust Star.
Under normal circumstances, using mental power is a process of continuous consumption. However, Ye Ning did not feel the connection between the spiritual body in his hand and Long Qi. It was as if it was another Long Qi.
Xiluos once again recalled what happened in those few days. Long Qi was asleep, the energy around him was fluctuating wildly, and Ye Ning had consumed a large amount of her innate power...
Ye Ning: "I thought everyone could see it, but I didn't expect that only Long Qi and I could see it."
"Everyone says that after the Emperor Dragon awakens, it will become extremely powerful, and then terrible things will happen. I wonder if the awakening of other Emperor Dragons will also produce spiritual bodies like Long Qi."
It makes sense that no one could see it, they just knew that it suddenly became extremely powerful, but they didn't know why it was so powerful because they couldn't see it.
The Emperor Dragon Clan is brave and good at fighting. They have been active in various battlefields fighting pollutants. When their mental strength has been at the critical point of extreme values for months and years, it is indeed easier for them to break through than others.
Ye Ning looked at Xiluo Si and said, "For now, only the three of us know about this matter."
"I think if there's anyone in this world who can create a spirit, it should be you. Do you want to give it a try?"
Siros's eyes lit up slightly. "You mean, even if it's not an Emperor Dragon, it can still produce a spiritual body?"
Ye Ning: "It's just a guess, but Emperor Dragon is also an orc, and is essentially no different from other orcs."
They were all the same, except that Emperor Dragon was more powerful. However, Siros's mental strength was also very strong. Within the same world framework, it was impossible for Emperor Dragon to be the only one who could do this.
Ye Ning even felt that all orcs could do it.
However, if the mental power needs to break through the S level before a spiritual body can be produced, it would be too difficult to make all orcs produce spiritual bodies.
However, it can also serve as a direction for future capability development.
Ye Ning looked at Xiluo Si and said, "We are in the ocean at this time. Do you want to give it a try?"
It's all for the purpose of improving abilities. If one can naturally produce a spiritual body, it will definitely be better than becoming a fused orc.
The marine pollution area hadn't been cleaned up yet, so Long Qi could go there and practice. He hadn't actually fought since his spirit form appeared.
To understand how the spiritual body actually operates and what possible ways it can be used, actual combat is the best way to explore it.
"Of course." Silos agreed without any hesitation.
This is definitely the biggest secret of the Emperor Dragon Clan, but Long Qi was willing to reveal such a life-threatening matter to him. It must be Ye Ning's intention.
Ye Ning did this entirely out of trust in him.
Even Hou Lin and Gu Yu didn't know about such an important and crucial thing, but she told him. This was enough to prove that his position in her heart was different from that of others.
This realization made Silos completely happy.
The slight sour feeling in his heart completely disappeared, and he became visibly happy.
Ye Ning didn't know that he was thinking about something else, and thought that he was so happy because he had discovered a way to improve his abilities.
Her planting route this time was planned early on and is roughly distributed in four areas: shallow sea waters, ocean current confluence areas, areas with complex seabed terrain, and sea areas less affected by human activities.
The Marine Botanical Research Institute has previously conducted a thorough investigation of the characteristics and ecological environment of various sea areas, identified suitable planting locations, and worked with her institute to develop a scientific planting plan.
In other words, she will be planting all over the ocean for the next one or two weeks.
Before they came, they also thought about how to get Xilos to join them, allowing her to plant while they clean up the pollutants and improve their abilities.
Siros pondered for a moment and said, "That's easy. During the day, we'll help you plant. The flow rate of the seawater can be controlled, so you only need to spend half a day planting. The rest of the time, we'll take turns accompanying you."
He would feel at ease only if at least one of him and Long Qi was by her side.
As for other people, even if they were his close followers, he was not at ease leaving them with Ye Ning.
He Yang had just contacted him tonight, telling him about Ye Ning's speculation about the fusion of orcs and asking him not to let his guard down.
A few months ago, a nuclear leak did occur, and a large amount of sewage and dirty water was discharged into the ocean.
They were the first to detect it and protest to the federal government.
I originally thought it was an accident, but I didn't expect it to be man-made. Only the rebels could do something so detrimental to themselves and others.
Under normal circumstances, the marine orcs would not get involved in the affairs of the Federation and the rebels.
But the rebels wanted to drag everyone down with them, and their hands had long since reached out to the ocean, nearly killing him. He then directly executed a large number of marine orcs, which calmed down the rest of the restless ones.
He hasn't even started settling these accounts with them yet.
The rebels had deployed people around him so early, and he didn't think that the other side would fight the Federation to the death and let him come out to reap the battlefield.
So during this period, he has become much stricter in managing the people around him.
After the plan was almost done, Long Qi and Xilos shared their experiences of the appearance of the spiritual body.
Siros thought for a moment and said, "It's not necessary to fight against pollutants."
He rarely fought against pollutants on the battlefield. Compared to killing pollutants, his own safety was naturally more important.
Therefore, his mental strength depends on two things: talent and daily professional training.
Since he was young, he has had a professional team that has developed a special training plan for him based on his physical and mental data.
Until now, there is a special team to analyze his problems and defects before and after each battle.
Long Qi's need to fight on the battlefield is also related to his long-term training habits.
He knew about Long Qi's experience. Unlike others, Long Qi had not received any professional training before going to the Xisha area. He relied entirely on instinct and experience to fight.
Of course, Long Qi should be completely different now.
Siros continued, "If you want to exhaust your mental strength, it's easy to do in the ocean."
Seawater can quickly spread everything, including mental power.
It's just a matter of seeing if he can keep breaking through himself.
This is actually what Ye Ning wants. Different methods are different for different people. If Xilos can provide a completely different method of success, it will help others find more possibilities when exploring spiritual bodies.
They chatted for a while, and the aircraft finally landed at the port.
Xiluosi casually put Ye Ning's handkerchief into his pocket and put on his gloves again. "We're here."
It was night time now and Ye Ning needed to rest, so he asked them to cancel all the complicated ceremonies.
But this was her first time to come to the ocean in person, and the marine beastmen had been excited for several days.
Therefore, the necessary environment for media to take photos and broadcast live is still necessary.
Anyway, it's just the time when they are changing trains, so it won't take up too much time.
Ye Ning glanced outside and saw that there seemed to be sea orcs below.
Because she seemed to see someone who was bald.
It may sound a bit rude to say this, but the good-looking sea orcs are really good-looking, and the ugly ones are really not that good-looking.
After seeing so much, she finally understood why Silos had such long hair. There were probably few people in the ocean with hair as smooth and beautiful as his.
Various cameras have been set up and are densely suspended in the air.
Siros took the scarf and asked, "Do you want to wear this?"
Ye Ning shook her head and rubbed her face with her hands, "Just go down."
She looked in the mirror, relaxed her facial muscles, and after making sure she was in the right condition, she said, "Let's go."
The hatch slowly opened, and a red carpet had been laid on the stairs leading down to the aircraft.
Siros walked to the hatch.
Only then did everyone realize that they were not on a aircraft with the imperial logo, and they immediately turned their cameras and aimed them at Ye Ning's aircraft.
A white light flashed, Xilos turned around and stretched out his hand to Ye Ning.
"I'll help you."
Ye Ning glanced outside, walked to the cabin door, and greeted everyone, "Hello everyone."
The cameras below suddenly started flashing even more wildly, and Ye Ning could even hear someone screaming softly.
There weren't really that many people, only about a few dozen, and they were all gathered about fifty or sixty meters away from her.
Ye Ning stood there with Xiluo Si, letting everyone take pictures for a few minutes. When her eyes were almost blinded by the light, she finally heard Xiluo Si say, "That's enough."
As soon as he said yes, the surrounding cameras dimmed at the same time. The lights that had been flashing just now also disappeared.
All the reporters were asked to leave, and the soldiers behind them began to help carry the luggage.
Everything is organized and efficient.
Xiluosi turned around and looked at Ye Ning, "You can go down now."
Ye Ning gave him a thumbs up and said, "I have to go help with the luggage."
Long Qi was holding her suitcase, which contained several other boxes.
Ye Ning turned around and saw that she was also holding two boxes in her hands.
Siros immediately reached out to take the box from her hand, "Just the two of us can take it."
Ye Ning stepped back a bit and said, "You look so good in this outfit, I can just take it myself."
Siros laughed. "I'm really terrified when you say that."
All of Ye Ning's daily luggage amounted to seven or eight boxes. He and Long Qi each took four, which was just right.
Siros's followers came over immediately and wanted to take it, but he refused them all.
The group quickly transferred to the warship.
This warship is obviously different from the last one. It looks very solid all around, but it is not too big. On the contrary, the other warships around it are several tons larger than this one.
The bigger the ship, the more people it needs. Although this warship is smaller, it is made of the strongest materials and is more than enough to withstand the attack of space meteorites.
When Ye Ning went in, Xilos also helped her verify her biometric information such as fingerprints, pupil patterns and voice patterns.
"This warship is specially made for you. You can fully control it."
"If you encounter danger, you can directly use voice control to kill the opponent."
Siros gave her a simulation demonstration and said, "This is the password."
Ye Ning carefully wrote down what Xiluos taught her.
After that, Xiluos said lightly: "This is just in case. Long Qi and I will take turns to be by your side, so don't worry too much about it."
"You've been busy all day. Go to bed early. Tomorrow morning, we will reach the first ocean current intersection."
Xilos originally wanted to take her to the palace first, but Ye Ning said that he had to complete the planting task first.
She seemed to have a very urgent sense of urgency about this ocean planting activity and didn't even want to wait until the next morning.
Siros looked at Long Qi again and said, "There happens to be a polluted area nearby. I'll have someone send you there on a small supersonic ship. It will take about an hour."
Long Qi looked at Ye Ning.
Ye Ning waved at him and said, "Go early and come back early, don't get hurt."
The corners of Long Qi's mouth rose slightly, "Okay."
His whole being softened.
Xiluosi was keenly aware of something. His heart skipped a beat. He put his arm around Ye Ning's shoulders and pushed her in another direction. "It's late. You don't have to worry about others. Go and get some rest."
"I'll be guarding the door tonight. If you need anything, just come out and call me."
The curve of Long Qi's mouth returned to its original position. He looked deeply at Ye Ning's back, turned around and walked out.
Ye Ning didn't expect that even the decoration of the room was exactly the same as her residence in Xisha District.
It can be seen that it was indeed carefully prepared.
She glanced at the time and it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.
Ye Ning took a shower, cleaned herself up, drank a cup of hot water handed to her by Xilos, and then returned to the room.
Long Qi helped her make the bed before leaving. She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she always felt his scent on the quilt.
Ye Ning wrapped herself in the quilt and looked at the model of the Sea Dust Star again.
Rebel Zone...
Ye Ning has set the time and is ready to give them some heavy rain starting tomorrow.
We can't let them open the ring so smoothly every day.
Early the next morning.
While Ye Ning was still asleep, the capital district released a piece of important news.
Xiru arrested all the pure humans with the surname Hu and placed them under house arrest, and then issued a solemn statement, claiming that all the deaths of pure humans were caused by the Hu family.
