Chapter 789: The Source!
“Sigh…”
Method Yu sighed and descended back to the ground.
He crouched down and picked up the curved blade that had been burned to charcoal, wanting to examine it.
But as soon as he touched it, the carbonized blade crumbled into a pile of black ash.
This indicated that the curved blade had been burned to pieces from the inside out, with no valuable material remaining.
Based on his previous observation, this curved blade was at least of exceptional quality or above.
To burn the blade to this state in just two seconds… even the Earth Core Fire couldn’t have accomplished this.
Honestly, the power of the Fire Jade… exceeded Method Yu’s expectations.
Method Yu raised his head and looked at the array of black jars in front of him.
He walked forward and released his divine consciousness, enveloping one of the jars.
Then, he once again used the Spirit Tracking technique!
The light halo slowly descended from the top of the black jar.
When the halo passed through the substance inside the jar and the red talisman paper, it emitted an even more dazzling light.
Afterward, the halo transformed into a beam of light, flashing toward the sky.
Found it again!
Method Yu closed his eyes and followed the divine consciousness that had transformed into light, quickly flashing through countless scenes.
Soon, his consciousness arrived at a dark place.
It seemed to be a swamp.
Through his divine consciousness, Method Yu could only see a pitch-black viscous mud below.
The black liquid inside the jar… could it be the mud from this swamp?
Method Yu’s heart stirred.
At this moment, his divine consciousness directly sank into the swamp, losing visibility.
Method Yu opened his eyes, locking onto the location of this swamp.
He could confirm that the black liquid inside the jar originated from that swamp.
But this result… Method Yu was still not satisfied.
Whether it was this place or the swamp he just discovered, they were merely tools used to control minds.
The real mastermind, the being referred to as “Soul Master,” still hadn’t been found.
“The talisman paper on this black jar must have a connection to Soul Master’s aura…”
Method Yu used the Spirit Tracking technique on the black jar in front of him again.
But this time, the Spirit Tracking technique still led to that swamp.
Method Yu deliberately used the Spirit Tracking technique on the red talisman paper attached to the front of the jar, but couldn’t detect any traceable aura.
With this, the trail went cold.
“Damn, if that Half-Spirit race general hadn’t died… I could have at least gotten some information from him.” Method Yu stood in place, feeling somewhat frustrated.
However, finding these black jars could at least solve the immediate crisis.
Method Yu’s figure flashed as he left the warehouse and flew into the air.
Rising to a height of over two hundred meters, he extended his right palm toward the warehouse directly below.
His entire right arm glowed with golden light.
A powerful true energy gathered in his right palm.
“Boom!”
Three seconds later, the energy shot downward, plunging toward the warehouse below!
“Rumble…”
The warehouse, covering hundreds of square meters, collapsed instantly!
The black jars inside all shattered, none were spared!
The ground trembled for nearly ten seconds.
Method Yu looked at the huge crater below, raised his right hand, and activated the Void Ring.
“Whoosh!”
A second later, Method Yu disappeared in mid-air.
…
Method Yu’s figure suddenly appeared outside the car window, startling Zheng Ze inside.
The door opened, and Method Yu sat back in the passenger seat.
He turned his head, looking at Pan Yushan and Luo Hao who were still unconscious in the back seat, and said to Zheng Ze: “Wake them up.”
“…Alright.” Zheng Ze came to his senses and placed his hands on their foreheads.
With a flash of light, their eyelids began to move.
A moment later, both opened their eyes.
Pan Yushan sat up first, looking down at his hands, then around him, his expression excited.
“I, I’ve finally returned to normal!”
Pan Yushan was so excited that his face flushed and his body trembled.
Beside him, Luo Hao was also too excited to speak.
“Do you remember everything that happened during this time?” Method Yu asked.
Pan Yushan looked at Method Yu, recalled what had happened before, and nodded repeatedly.
But after nodding, he felt it wasn’t appropriate and quickly said, “Lord Method, although I’m aware of what I did before, I couldn’t control myself…”
“Don’t worry, I understand that.” Method Yu smiled, “We won’t hold you accountable for what you did before.”
“But you must explain everything you did while under control.”
Pan Yushan and Luo Hao exchanged glances, their eyes showing fear.
Many things they had done during this period seriously violated the rules.
If they were to tell everything…
“You don’t have to say anything, but tonight I’ll send you to prison. You should know that Huai Xu sent me here.” Method Yu’s eyes flickered slightly as he spoke slowly.
“We’ll talk! We’ll definitely cooperate…”
Hearing the word “prison,” Pan Yushan and Luo Hao’s faces changed dramatically as they hastily agreed.
Method Yu looked at Zheng Ze and said, “Record everything they say. Tomorrow morning, I’ll go with you to see Huai Xu.”
“Understood, Lord Method,” Zheng Ze said.
…
Half an hour later, the car drove back to the North Capital Martial Arts Association building.
Zheng Ze took Pan Yushan and Luo Hao upstairs, while Method Yu returned to North Capital 101.
It was nearly nine o’clock in the evening.
Method Yu chose not to return to the bamboo tower but went to the Scripture Repository specifically used for storing books.
The Scripture Repository had five floors, each storing a large number of books.
These books were collected by Method Yu along his journey, including various technique manuals, many out-of-print ancient books, reference books, and even quite a few novels.
Method Yu stood on the first floor, looking at the numerous books around him, feeling somewhat overwhelmed.
“Little Wind Bell, come out,” Method Yu called.
No one answered.
Method Yu called again.
“What is it… I was having my beauty sleep, so noisy.” Little Wind Bell appeared behind Method Yu.
Method Yu was no longer surprised by Little Wind Bell’s increasingly human-like changes.
“Gather all the manuals related to soul spirits and mind spirits, and bring them to me,” Method Yu said.
Little Wind Bell looked very unwilling, but seeing the coldness on Method Yu’s face, she had to comply.
“Also, find a few books about controlling magical weapons,” Method Yu said.
“Got it.” Little Wind Bell took a deep breath and disappeared from Method Yu’s sight.
Method Yu went to the top floor of the Scripture Repository.
There was a reading pavilion built there, specifically for resting and reading.
Method Yu sat down at a wooden table, leaned back in his chair, and looked up at the stars in the night sky.
Then, he closed his eyes and looked inward.
In his dantian, the dragon and phoenix intertwined, and the fire lotus symbolizing the Fire Jade was still burning.
The Heavenly Spear had transformed into a wisp of gas, just like the Xuanran energy, quietly staying in one corner of Method Yu’s meridians.
“How do I completely control them? Or rather, make them understand my true strength correctly?” Method Yu pondered.
Method Yu wanted to prevent situations like what happened with Iron Bone tonight from occurring again.
If these magical weapons were to fly out to protect him every time… Method Yu might never again experience the joy of battle.
After thinking for a while, Method Yu directly used his divine consciousness to enter the Heavenly Spear.
“Master, good evening.” The blurry weapon spirit appeared before Method Yu.
“I want to talk to you about what happened tonight,” Method Yu said.
“Alright,” the weapon spirit replied.
“In the future, without my permission, you cannot leave my body on your own,” Method Yu said.
“After acknowledging you as my master, I will only follow your commands, and can only follow your commands,” the weapon spirit replied.
“Then why did you come out on your own tonight?” Method Yu asked.
“Oh… that’s not something my consciousness can decide. When the master encounters a potentially life-threatening danger… the Heavenly Spear will instinctively protect its master,” the weapon spirit replied.
“But I wasn’t in any life-threatening danger,” Method Yu said.
“That’s because I haven’t been your master for long enough and don’t understand your situation well enough…” the weapon spirit said.
“So you mean, once you understand me well enough, you won’t suddenly jump out?” Method Yu asked.
“Yes,” the weapon spirit replied.
“That’s good,” Method Yu was satisfied with the weapon spirit’s answer and withdrew his divine consciousness from the Heavenly Spear.
Magical weapons with intelligence are just like humans.
Before fully understanding their master, they cannot distinguish whether an attack will cause fatal harm to their master.
Therefore, they choose to protect their master in such situations.
Once they understand Method Yu’s strength, this situation will not occur again.
