Chapter 1004: Secret Power and Hidden Deeply
Seeing their reactions, Chen Chuan realized that they were fully aware of this power. He nodded and said, "Yes."
The mask said, "Incredible, incredible... Let me tell you, this is... um... Lao Zhuan... Can you tell me?"
Mr. Zhuan raised his head and said slowly and solemnly, "This is Xuankong Fire."
Chen Chuan's heart moved slightly. He remembered that there was a set of secret techniques in the Pure Sect that was specially developed for human-like fighters, called "Xuankong Zhenming". The Tiandi Honglu Breathing Technique was one of them.
This power is named "Xuankong". Is there any connection between the two?
Mr. Zhuan said in a deep voice, "Xuankong Fire is a force that can be activated after mastering the Great Blue Sky Style and the Great Bright Light Style. These two styles can also be considered the basis for activating this force. But I must remind you..."
He looked more serious than ever before, "Counselor Chen, you must not tell anyone about this, even to your close colleagues in the Purity Faction. It's best not to mention it.
When your strength hasn't reached a certain level, unless you're facing extremely dangerous situations, it's best not to use it if possible."
The mask said, "Yes, yes, this is all we can tell you about this. Everything we know is based on a signed agreement, so we can't tell you more about this. But you're right to listen to us."
Seeing how serious they were, Chen Chuan suspected that something might be involved. He responded seriously, "Gentlemen, I understand."
Mr. Zhuan sighed, "No wonder you were able to defeat Zhao Zhenye. With the Xuankong Fire, even if he was from the Changsheng Temple, he wouldn't be able to stop it if he wasn't prepared."
"yes."
The mask also thinks this is more reasonable. No, it seems reasonable, but there is something wrong. Hey, the loss of most of the spiritual power is like losing a lot of brains. I can't remember anything.
Seeing that they were all silent, Chen Chuan stopped talking about this and changed the subject, saying, "Gentlemen, when I was fighting Zhao Zhenye this time, I saw a being on him that seemed to be possessed by the other party.
Before I finally killed him, this being intervened, and in the end, his remains were swept across a rift, likely caused by that being.
He said, "You two gentlemen should still remember the report I submitted after my investigation. According to Tian Rui's account, a certain being across from us combined with Zhao Zhenye to produce a child. That being's appearance at the time was somewhat similar to that of a woman, so I suspect this is the one I encountered."
Of course, those beings in the other world may not have any so-called gender distinction at all, but depending on the body they possess, their image and inner qualities will be different, and it seems that they will influence each other.
Mr. Zhuan said solemnly, "Counselor Chen, your speculation makes sense. If that's the case, then that woman might have been with Zhao Zhenye all along. We've never known the source of Zhao Zhenye's cultivation resources, but now it seems he probably obtained them through the presence of the other side. Especially since the old imperial family has always been involved with the other side."
The mask also said: "We just don't know what he wants to do. Now that he is dead, the clues are probably broken. I am afraid that what happened back then will really be impossible to figure out. But there is no other way. Officer Chen, it is not easy for you to solve him. We can't ask for much. At least we have corrected the mistakes made back then. Lao Zhuan, can your heart knot be untied too?"
Mr. Zhuan didn't say anything.
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Although Zhao Zhenye was indeed dead at the time, this matter is connected to the other party, so there is a possibility of recurrence."
Mr. Zhuan said in a deep voice, "Counselor Chen, your concerns are correct. We cannot let our guard down yet."
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Since the construction of the Skyline, Central City is currently relatively stable. I plan to continue after the New Year to digest the gains made during this period. So I came here to say hello to the two gentlemen first."
Mr. Zhuan understands this. After defeating a strong opponent, it will be a great stimulation for the fighter and may promote his strength forward. Such opportunities are very rare and must be seized.
He said, "You can rest assured to cultivate. We will be stationed in Central City for a while. I also wanted to tell you something. Headquarters is very happy with the establishment of Skyline. They may issue a formal letter of commendation to the Jibei Road branch. This represents headquarters' recognition of the Jibei Road branch. Gaining more support from headquarters in the future will be very beneficial."
Mask said, "Skyline is currently exclusive to Jibei and Haidong Provinces. People from other branches may come here to seek experience. This is an opportunity to expand influence. Whether you can hold a key position at headquarters or obtain some important qualifications will be a very important reference for your influence within the faction."
Chen Chuan nodded, but he didn't need to think too much about his position within the faction for the time being. Reaching the realm of immortality as soon as possible was his top priority.
But he was the branch director of the Purity Faction after all, so he had to know something about the headquarters and other branches. Having said that, he also chatted with Zhuan and Tang for a few more words, and did not say goodbye until after three o'clock in the afternoon.
After he left, Mr. Mask, who had been holding back for a long time, said excitedly, "Old Master, no one can match Officer Chen's talent. Did you hear that? That's Xuankong Fire! Who in the sect, past and present, who has been trained with concentrated resources, can compare to him?"
Mr. Zhuan was much calmer than him. He asked, "Old Tang, now that you've regained your strength, can you guarantee that this memory won't be discovered by others?"
The mask was stunned for a moment, then he became serious and said, "Old Master, what you said makes sense. I've been depleted quite a bit, and some of my spirit energy will unconsciously be released, which might be seen by certain people. This information must not be leaked at all, otherwise not only those sects outside, but also some people within the sect might try to get something from Chen Candidate."
He pondered for a moment, then made a decision that seemed extremely painful and torturous. "Well... I'll let my real body come out..."
Mr. Zhuan said, “Can you do it?”
The mask gritted its teeth and said, "I can do it! It's just a one-time thing, no problem!" After a while, he said dejectedly, "If it really doesn't work, Lao Zhuan, if there's any problem, just find a way to kill me."
Mr. Zhuan said decisively, "I will."
The mask said, "If it really comes to that, and I'm not here to watch over you, you should pay attention to where you're going when you go out, or you won't end up without knowing where you're going."
Mr. Zhuan sneered and looked down on him.
After Chen Chuan left the South City Industrial Zone, he went to the branch again and met with Chang Dong and others. Gao Ming was also present this time.
Thanks to his funding, the branch has recently invested in many new businesses involving many newly revised legal procedures. A reliable lawyer is needed here, so he simply introduced Gao Ming.
In reality, becoming a fighter doesn't mean you don't need a lawyer, but a different set of rules applies. Gao Ming's previous experience as a lawyer was of little use, so he'd recently been gathering information from the Fighter Council and studying it. Ultimately, he'd need to pass the council's assessment to become a lawyer serving fighters.
This opportunity is actually very difficult to obtain. If there is no fighter's guarantee, lawyers are usually selected from the cooperative lawyer firms under the Fighter Council for training. It is difficult for ordinary people to squeeze into this circle.
But it is definitely different once you get in. Your status and wealth are incomparable to before. In the Linax Federation, this kind of lawyer is a completely different class. They are not servants of fighters, but equal partners. Some even use the rules to restrict fighters.
After negotiating with Gao Ming, Chang Dong and others, he visited the branch which was almost completed, had dinner together, and then returned home.
The central city was peaceful for the next few days, and he didn't go to many places. Apart from preparing some things for the New Year, he spent the rest of his time practicing at home.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was New Year's Eve of the 96th year of Jianzhi. Outside the villa area, the sound of firecrackers continued, and various screens in various venues were showing various fireworks shows from all over the city.
This was the first time that Chen Chuan celebrated the New Year in the central city, and this time the whole family was celebrating the New Year in the central city. At this moment, his cousins and other children from the villa were boating together in the lake behind the villa. With Chao Ming's protection, he was not worried about any problems.
Yu Wan watched the wonderful performances on the screen, feeling both amused and a little regretful. She said, "There are so many good things here in Central City. We have everything. But, I kind of miss my old neighbors in Yangzhi."
Nian Fuli was reading an internal newspaper and nodded when he heard this. Although he had new colleagues, he also missed those old faces. After all, he had lived there for half his life.
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Aunt, uncle, now that the skyline is connected, it will soon expand to the surrounding areas, starting with several important towns in the central city, and Yangzhi City is one of them.
Perhaps after the new year, Yangzhi City's field information connection will be arranged, and by then, direct communication between the two places will be possible. The city will also establish an airship transportation squadron, so that travel between Yangzhi City and the central city will only take half a day at most."
When Nian Fuli heard this, he couldn't help but put down the newspaper in his hand.
My aunt couldn't help showing a look of surprise and said, "Chan'er, is it true?"
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "It's true. Don't worry, aunt and uncle. We will be able to complete this task at least next year. If we are fast, we may be able to hear familiar voices in the first half of the year.
Nian Fuli and Yu Wan couldn't help but look at each other with joy. If this was the case, the distance between Yangzhi and the central city would be greatly shortened.
Seeing that there was still some time before dinner, Chen Chuan left the living room, went upstairs, and returned to the study. There were many gifts and greeting cards sent to him here, including some from other places and abroad. He had not had time to open them before, so he took this opportunity to open them and take a look.
