Chapter 26 26. The Gate to the World
night.
No. 3 Observatory, rooftop.
Xia Feng stood on the edge of the rooftop facing the breeze and glanced at the time.
7:01 PM
He arrived two hours early, but not only did Mu Qingtong not set any traps here, he was also damn late!
"What's going on with this guy?" Xia Feng raised his head and looked around warily at the darkness. He was speechless. It was just a trade of Wuliang Stone, so why did he have to set the venue on the rooftop?
I don’t know if this is the place where people are most likely to die.
7:03 PM
【Xia Feng: Where are you? 】
There was no response from the other side.
But at this time.
[After escaping the pursuit of three Holy Ministry agents, you have a deeper understanding of the Concealed Spirit Cloth]
[After subconsciously thinking, you modify the Concealed Spirit Cloth.]
[Testing behind Xia Feng, you've completely mastered how to become completely invisible in the dark.]
“???”
Xia Feng's neck stiffened and he tilted his head slightly as if nothing had happened.
There was darkness behind Yu Guangzhong, and there was no sign of anyone.
Xia Feng vaguely sensed something unusual, so he hid behind the wall and pondered for a moment. You then patched up the holes in your hidden spirit robe.
Xia Feng: “.”
“Whoosh—”
At this moment, there was a sound of breaking air in the night sky. Xia Feng looked up vigilantly, only to find that it was three men in dark black uniforms.
The black and gold emblem on the left chest of their uniforms revealed their identities - agents of the Holy Ministry.
The Holy Ministry is the official law enforcement agency established by the Empire to deal with extraordinary events within the country.
The three Holy Department agents stood in the air and looked around, and soon found Xia Feng standing on the rooftop.
They flashed and came in front of Xia Feng.
The middle-aged man leading the group said gently, "Classmate, have you seen anyone acting strangely?"
Xia Feng: "Strange whereabouts?"
"Is it a red-robed man wearing a black mask with red hearts?"
Red Heart Mask? I guess it's Mu Qingtong. Xia Feng blinked and shook his head blankly: "I didn't see it~"
The middle-aged man nodded without further doubt, but when he turned around and was about to leave, his steps suddenly stopped. He turned back sharply and asked, "What are you doing on the rooftop alone?"
Xia Feng pointed to an old stargazing telescope not far away, blinked, and said seriously: "I am studying the 'Three Realms Dependence Theory of the Star Realm, the Night Realm, and the Present Realm'. This is the only observatory where you can observe the star realm for free."
"Mr. Agent, this is not illegal, is it?"
The middle-aged man's eyes softened instantly, and he coughed: "Well, it's not illegal, you can continue."
But Xia Feng asked again, "Agent, are you hunting down the evil beasts? Could it be that an evil beast has entered the academy?"
The middle-aged man waved his hand and instructed his two men to continue searching southward. He then took out a detector and waved it towards the sky, explaining, "It's not a nightmare beast, but a psychic criminal."
"A spiritual criminal?"
"You know Bloody Street, right?
The space in that area is unstable, with evil beasts frequently scurrying into the present world, and the afflicted running rampant, creating a chaotic situation. This jerk codenamed Red Peach frequently haunts Bloody Street, killing indiscriminately. He's killed everyone from the evil clan, the afflicted, and spiritualists, even ordinary people. His targets show no pattern at all.
"But one thing is certain: every person who died at his hands had their soul extracted. It's obvious that he was performing some inhumane experiment."
At this point, the middle-aged man's tone became slightly heavier, and he gritted his teeth, obviously hating this spiritual criminal very much.
"It's been half a year since this bastard last committed a crime. I thought he'd given up on the experiment, but I didn't expect him to pop up again today! And commit a crime in broad daylight! How arrogant!"
Xia Feng: “.”
"Isn't that what you said?" The talkative middle-aged man turned around and asked, as if wanting to gain approval.
"Ah? Yes!"
Xia Feng nodded seriously, filled with righteous indignation, "Arrogant! Too arrogant! If I catch this kind of inhumane and evil person, I will definitely - I will definitely beat her until she cries and calls for daddy!"
"?" The middle-aged man looked at Xia Feng in surprise. Is this the new interrogation method used by this generation of young people? It's quite perverted.
He shook his head and put down the detector: "Alright, this psychic criminal has escaped into the academy. I will inform your academy's higher-ups about this matter. You better be careful."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man took a step and jumped directly to the roof of the opposite building. With another jump, he disappeared in a few seconds.
Huh~~ Xia Feng breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his watch.
7:08 PM
Seeing this, he muttered softly: "Really, wait for her for two more minutes, and leave if she doesn't come."
One minute and fifty seconds later.
There were obvious footsteps behind him. Xia Feng did not turn around, but just looked at Yuekong with his hands behind his back: "You are here."
"?" Mu Qingtong paused. "Sorry, I'm late for something. Here are two grams of Wuliang Stone. Take it."
As she said that, she just threw it away.
"!" Xia Feng was so scared that he gave up posing and quickly turned around to catch the box.
Really, this woman always likes to play by her own rules. Xia Feng gently lifted the lid of the box to reveal a small gap. Two small stones with dazzling black and gold light lay quietly in the box, and one of them was faintly emitting a faint red light.
"This box cannot prevent quantization. The one emitting red light has three hours left, and the other one has a month. I recommend using it as soon as possible, otherwise it will easily quantize into an unobservable quantum state and disappear."
The woman in the black dress said this, waved her hand and turned away.
"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Xia Feng stared at the woman's resolute back, stunned for a moment, then realized, "Only three hours left? Hey! You're really cheating!"
The figure of the woman in the black dress disappeared, and Xia Feng had no choice but to curse and quickly close the box after completing the identification.
The Infinite Stone is a very mysterious substance. If there are no special storage measures, it will gradually quantize itself and enter the legendary quantum dimension, which is what Mu Qingtong just mentioned as quantization.
The quantized Infinite Stone cannot be observed in the real world, which is equivalent to disappearing.
That's why Mu Qingtong reminded him to use it as soon as possible.
"No, time is running out!"
After thinking about it, Xia Feng waited for a few minutes to make sure that Mu Qingtong, the old bastard, was not peeping in the dark. Then he quickly went downstairs to find an experimental classroom, locked the door, and pushed open the tables and chairs.
The summoning materials are placed on the tiled floor.
Xia Feng dripped faded ink and elephant fish blood into the beaker, waited for the liquid to boil, and then poured in the world tree branch powder and the dragon god's spirit. He stirred it evenly and let it cool for a minute until it turned into a fiery red magma fluid. Then he bit his thumb and pressed the fingertip on the fluid.
In an instant, the fluid attached to and wrapped around his thumb, and white mist continued to rise into the air.
Xia Feng frowned slightly and endured the pain, quickly carving a formation on the ground, up and down, left and right, BABA
Finally, a flame-red pattern suddenly unfolded on the ground. Xia Feng took out the Wuliang Stone that emitted a faint red light and placed it on the hollow circle in the center of the formation.
At the same time, his black eyes suddenly became sharp, and he formed a seal with one hand: "The door to the present world, the infinite space!"
As he shouted solemnly, the entire snowflake-shaped formation instantly burst into a raging golden light. The infinite stone in the middle melted instantly, and a two-meter-high golden vertical crack appeared in the space above it.
Xia Feng looked up nervously, only to see that the vertical crack expanded horizontally in the blink of an eye, turning into a dazzling golden door.
"Wow, this is the 'Gate to the World'." Xia Feng walked around the tall door in surprise. The front and back of the door were filled with white light.
Seeing that he couldn't figure out what was going on, he didn't hesitate any longer and took a step forward.
His body passed through the light gate, but he did not enter any different space. Instead, he walked out directly and came to the other side of the gate.
But the lines of the formation on the ground rose into the air and sank into the light gate, and suddenly - the gate closed.
The dark classroom returned to silence. Xia Feng stood there with an empty look in his eyes.
