Chapter 119: Developing New Functions of Divine Consciousness
Boom!
A loud noise came from the ground.
The earth suddenly trembled.
A deep hole, two meters deep and over a meter in diameter, was blasted open.
Without a doubt, the Little Gold Ball had self-destructed again.
Boom boom boom…
Soon, explosions occurred every minute or two.
With the earthy pangolin digging and the Little Gold Ball self-destructing, the ground was consistently blasted into one deep pit after another.
Yi Chen’s divine consciousness only had a one-meter coverage range, unable to observe the battle inside.
Feeling a bit bored, he turned to Bai Ruo Xin beside him and asked, “What level are you at in the Spirit Law stage now?”
Bai Ruo Xin raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, “I broke through to the first level of Spirit Consciousness two days ago!”
“Not bad!”
Yi Chen commented.
At present, the number of geniuses in the tribe who had broken through to the first level of Spirit Consciousness was nearing a hundred.
Considering that he had to spend time and energy managing the Intelligence Organization while also cultivating, reaching the top hundred was quite impressive.
He then asked, “Have there been any new discoveries in the Misty Forest?”
The Misty Forest was information he had seen half a month ago.
The sources of this information included Bai Ruo Xin’s Intelligence Organization and the Political Council.
The high priest, Zhong Ren, and Feng Yue would follow suit, coming directly to Yi Chen if there was important information or events that needed his attention.
If the matter was of lesser importance or could be delayed, they would send him yellow paper messages slipped under the door.
From both sides, the information indicated that the Northern Army had discovered a forest shrouded in thick fog.
In the forest, the mist lingered, so even those at the first level of Spirit Consciousness could only see a distance of about ten meters.
The eyesight of Spirit Law Tribe Members was restricted to just three to five meters.
The leader of the Northern Army, Zong Shan, had personally entered the Misty Forest with several first-level Spirit Consciousness geniuses to scout but quickly came under attack from humanity and fierce beasts.
Due to visibility issues, they had to retreat.
The information from the Intelligence Organization was more detailed.
Bai Ruo Xin’s orders sent members to the edge of the Misty Forest to try cutting down some trees and soil for research.
They discovered that the mist might be emitted from the trees in the forest.
The ability of the trees to emit mist was related to the soil quality.
Bai Ruo Xin explained, “The humanity and fierce beasts in the forest could attack Zong Shan and his team and then escape because they must have a method that isn’t restricted by the mist.”
“I’ve instructed the members of the Intelligence Organization over there to try binding weaker fierce beasts at the edge of the Misty Forest, allowing them to absorb the mist to see if it can enhance visibility within the forest.”
“Besides that, I also assigned Luo Shi to investigate the Misty Forest. Right now, there is still no news from either side.”
Yi Chen nodded in silence.
He had informed the Political Council to notify Zong Shan to temporarily avoid the Misty Forest and wait until he had time to discuss it.
At the moment, Bai Ruo Xin had thought of a research method to solve the visibility issues caused by the mist, so there was no need to rush.
They would wait for the test results to see how things went.
…
“I’m crying! Is Bai Ruo Xin doing this on purpose? She didn’t even ask Yi Chen when he would teach the new ability and the Chaos Technique in the Spirit Consciousness stage from beginning to end.”
The audience in the live room felt agitated.
“Exactly! Yi Chen clearly has time to spare and wouldn’t mind answering a few questions.”
“She usually dares to confront Yi Chen; asking about a new ability right now shouldn’t stress her at all.”
Someone scoffed, “Wake up! She is someone sent by certain ambitious individuals, only thinking about how to control Yi Chen. How could she possibly help us ask when Yi Chen will teach the new ability and the Chaos Technique in the Spirit Consciousness stage?”
“I think she’s doing it on purpose.”
“She didn’t agree to learn the new ability last time, proving she is most likely someone sent by ambitious individuals. But even if she is sent by them, her main goal is to control Yi Chen.”
“But she must also have curiosity and want to improve her strength and learn Yi Chen’s new abilities.”
“It’s just a matter of casually asking, but she intentionally avoids doing so, which is definitely on purpose!”
“Seriously, the next time we vote for the most disliked person in the galaxy, I will absolutely vote for Bai Ruo Xin!”
“I’ll vote for her too! Beautiful as a fairy, but with a heart as venomous as a scorpion—that’s exactly the kind of person she is!”
Everyone deeply despised Bai Ruo Xin.
Last time, in order to save time and ensure Yi Chen could stay by his side as soon as he appeared, she refused to learn the new ability first and then teach the talented members of the tribe, which was understandable.
With different stands and interests, the audience in the live room expressed more frustration towards the council’s incompetence.
With the majority in the audience, they let someone sent by an ambitious individual seize the opportunity.
Now, standing on the same side with common interests, and with Yi Chen being free and idle, Bai Ruo Xin still deliberately refused to ask.
To everyone, this behavior was just too despicable.
If a vote was held for the most disliked person in the galaxy, Bai Ruo Xin would undoubtedly lead by a wide margin.
She might even get over fifty percent of the votes.
…
Boom boom boom!
The ground continued to erupt with explosions.
The whole hillside had been blown into a pitiful mess, looking quite terrible.
It wasn’t until more than half an hour later that the Little Gold Ball finally emerged from the ground.
With its little short arms, it was still holding onto the earthy pangolin that was many times larger than itself.
Looking at the earthy pangolin, its thick earthy yellow scales had been blown into a state of disarray.
It looked more like it had patches stuck on with poor-quality glue.
Its flesh was torn and bloodied, a sight too terrible to behold.
Fortunately, the Little Gold Ball still remembered Yi Chen’s instructions.
It didn’t blow up the earthy pangolin.
Squeak…
After tossing the earthy pangolin aside, the Little Gold Ball proudly looked at Yi Chen.
“Not bad!”
Yi Chen casually praised.
He flew in front of the earthy pangolin and suddenly froze.
He could get the Little Gold Ball to actively retrieve the crystal because it had been with him for a long time and had interacted with the tribe members.
It had reached a level of understanding the human language by guessing and could roughly comprehend it.
With slightly deeper words, gestures could help solve the confusion.
But the earthy pangolin clearly couldn’t do that.
Could he forcibly use his divine consciousness to control the crystal within the earthy pangolin to come out?
Or…
Yi Chen’s eyes lit up.
Perhaps he could try exploring a new function of divine consciousness and see if he could convey his meaning to the earthy pangolin.
If successful, he could use this method to issue commands to fierce beasts in the future, making it easier to control them.
“Come here and stand in front of me!”
Determined, Yi Chen instructed Bai Ruo Xin.
Since communication was difficult, trying to use the earthy pangolin or the Little Gold Ball for adjustments wouldn’t work.
Bai Ruo Xin didn’t understand but immediately flew to stand in front of Yi Chen.
“Step forward!”
Noticing the distance exceeded one meter, Yi Chen reminded her.
Bai Ruo Xin took a decisive step and reduced the distance to just three or four decimeters from Yi Chen.
Tall and slender, she lifted her head slightly, feeling Yi Chen’s breath.
A faint blush appeared on her rosy cheeks.
What does the tribe leader want to do?
She felt quite anxious!
