Chapter 515 "Then...how do we test our spiritual roots?"
Chapter 515 "Then...how do we test our spiritual roots?"
Lu Qing's expression seemed a little complicated. He was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke: "It's not that I don't like it, it's just... I'm a little worried."
Jiang Luo blinked and asked in confusion: "What are you worried about?"
Lu Qing sighed, his eyes showing a trace of worry: "The power of Heaven is extraordinary. Once awakened, it means that you will take on greater responsibilities. I don't want to see you being overwhelmed by these responsibilities. Moreover, although the power of Heaven is strong, it also comes with huge risks. Historically, those who awakened the power of Heaven often did not have a good ending. I don't want you to go down that path."
After Jiang Luo heard this, he felt warm in his heart. He gently held Lu Qing's hand and said softly, "So, you are worried about me?"
Lu Qing nodded, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "I know you are very strong and smart now, but the power of Heaven is not an ordinary power. It involves the balance and rules of the entire world. If you are not careful, it may lead to unpredictable consequences. I don't want you to be in danger because of this power. Moreover, Heaven governs the three thousand worlds. Just Line 0001 of the Dharma Ending World has made him worry so much, and now he doesn't know where to go. If all these responsibilities are placed on your shoulders, you can imagine how much pressure you will be under."
Jiang Luo smiled slightly, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Don't worry, I won't be easily fooled by power. Although the power of heaven is strong, I will use it with caution. Besides, with you by my side, what else do I have to be afraid of?"
Lu Qing looked at Jiang Luo's confident eyes, as if his worries were slightly relieved. He gently held Jiang Luo's hand and whispered: "No matter what, I will stay with you. If you really awaken the power of heaven, I... I will also do my best to help you control it and never let you face it alone."
Jiang Luo nodded, with a mischievous smile on his face: "It's settled then. However, I haven't awakened any Heavenly Power yet. I just used You Lan Jue to scare the master of the 2073 world line. Don't be too nervous."
Hearing this, Lu Qing couldn't help laughing and tapped Jiang Luo's forehead gently: "You, are always so naughty."
Jiang Luo rarely showed an innocent expression, and he would only be so relaxed in front of Lu Qing. Jiang Luo stuck out his tongue and smiled, "However, this incident also made me realize that the master of the 2073 world line will not give up easily. We have to find him as soon as possible and completely solve this hidden danger."
Lu Qing nodded, his expression becoming serious again: "That's right, since he dares to attack us, it means he has made full preparations. We must act as soon as possible and not give him a chance to breathe."
Jiang Luo's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, and he whispered, "Don't worry, I have asked Qi Guanrui to contact the masters of other world lines. They will help us track down 2073. We just need to wait patiently, and once we have any news, we will act immediately."
Lu Qing nodded and held Jiang Luo's hand tightly: "Okay, let's go together."
The two smiled at each other, and the tacit understanding in their hearts was self-evident. No matter how many difficulties and dangers there were ahead, they would fight side by side and face them together.
At this moment, Yuan Haokun's voice came from a distance: "Boss, Lu Qing, where are you? We should set off!"
Jiang Luo and Lu Qing looked at each other, then let go of each other's hands and walked towards the direction of the sound.
Jiang Luo responded loudly: "Coming!"
Lu Qing followed behind Jiang Luo, looking at his back, as if he breathed a sigh of relief, and his clenched hands relaxed.
The two returned to the team, and the members of the four teams were ready to go. Yuan Haokun asked with a smile: "Boss, what were you talking about just now? It was so mysterious."
Jiang Luo smiled and waved his hand: "Nothing, just discussing the next plan."
Lin Shishuang raised his eyebrows and said teasingly, "Oh? Are they discussing something important behind our backs?"
Jiang Luo rolled his eyes at him and said with a smile, "You're the only one who talks too much. Let's go, we have to get back as soon as possible, there are still many things to deal with."
Their first stop was to return to the special operations command center in the capital. This time, Liu Tongan could finally deal with the monsters independently.
Lao Nie, Yu Ji and Xiao Qian were assigned to three target cities. During the days when they were away, they set up several barriers to trap animals.
These barriers can trap thousands of monsters, so there is no need to worry about them affecting the lives of ordinary people.
As soon as Liu Tongan saw them, he reported to them with a happy face: "We have captured 19 monsters in the past few days, and one of them was pregnant. We caught them with a big belly. We didn't kill them, but locked them up in the barrier forest park. But the pregnant rabbit's leg was broken, and we don't know how it broke, so we brought it here for an examination. It's in the medical room next door now, do you want to go and see it?"
Jiang Luo was quite interested in this and nodded, "Okay! This is the first time I've seen a pregnant rabbit, and it's a monster."
Liu Tongan took them to the medical room, and sure enough, they saw a big, hairy rabbit lying there, as big as a wolfdog.
But it has a very docile personality and is cooperating with the doctor during the pregnancy test.
Jiang Luo came closer and asked, "How many twins?"
The doctor in front of the instrument said, "It's only a single litter. Rabbits can have single litters, but it's rare. Maybe it's because it's just a lop-eared rabbit?"
Jiang Luo thought about it and nodded, "That's right. The stronger the species, the worse its reproductive ability. Little rabbits are weak and at the bottom of the food chain, so they have to rely on reproduction to survive. Monsters are different. After they mutate, they have supernatural powers to attack, and the laws of nature will not allow them to reproduce too much. Otherwise, it will harm the ecology."
The doctor looked at Jiang Luo in surprise and nodded, "Yes, yes, that's exactly what you said."
The rabbit monster was a long-haired, lop-eared rabbit, and looked very cute. Jiang Luo looked at its five elements and found out that it was an ice rabbit. He had never seen an ice monster before. Could it be that it could summon ice balls or ice swords?
Jiang Luo touched the Scottish Fold rabbit and guessed that the rabbit should be a domestic one. He didn't know if it ran away from home and happened to encounter the spiritual energy tide, so it mutated into a monster.
Liu Tongan sighed in the back: "There are more and more monsters these days, and ordinary people have been injured and killed. I don't know what will happen next. Why did this happen suddenly?"
Jiang Luo frowned and asked, "Are there any deaths?"
Liu Tongan said: "This incident is not entirely the fault of the monster. The tourist parked his car in a place with a no-parking sign and deliberately teased a strange golden rat. The rat might have been frightened and spit at him. But the rat was a gold rat, and it spit out an iron nail from its mouth, which happened to hit the man's aorta..."
Jiang Luo: ...
Alas, if a person wants to die, even the King of Hell can’t stop him!
Even if his spiritual energy had not revived, if he got out of the car to tease the Siberian tiger, the outcome would be the same.
You can't blame others for seeking death even though you know there is danger.
After listening to Liu Tongan's report, Jiang Luo frowned and felt helpless. He sighed and said, "This kind of thing cannot be completely avoided. After the spiritual energy revived, the appearance of monsters has exceeded the cognition of ordinary people. Although we have tried our best to control the situation, some accidents will still happen."
Liu Tongan nodded, his tone heavy: "Yes, the situation is getting more and more complicated. Although we have established a barrier to trap beasts, the number of monsters is still increasing, and their types and abilities are also different. We are a little short of manpower and equipment."
Jiang Luo pondered for a moment, then said: "Let's do this, we still have to balance the relationship between humans and monsters as soon as possible. It's not a solution to keep isolating them from humans. Their numbers will increase, which will inevitably affect humans. Generally speaking, the revival of spiritual energy will not only revive beasts, but also humans. We will send people to test the cultivation talents of ordinary people and set up the cultivation academy as soon as possible. Otherwise, if there are too many monsters, they will definitely compete with humans for territory."
Liu Tongan was surprised: "Oh? Really? Can humans really awaken superpowers?"
Jiang Luo confirmed: "Of course, cultivation in the Dharma Ending Age requires a lot of opportunities. Now that the spiritual energy has revived, we can let the young people who are interested come and take the test. As long as they have wisdom, we can recruit them."
Liu Tongan clapped his hands and said, "That's great! Oh, by the way, Master Jiang...is there an age limit?"
Jiang Luo shook his head: "There is no limit. As long as you have talent, you can cultivate immortality. But it depends on how far you can go! Generally, we do not recommend those with weak spiritual roots to take this path."
It is more difficult for humans to cultivate immortality than for animals. Humans need to comprehend many things. It is difficult to have talent without intelligence. Sometimes understanding is more important than talent.
Liu Tongan rubbed his hands, laughed dryly and said: "Then...how do we test our spiritual roots?"
Jiang Luo thought for a moment and answered, "Tomorrow! We will buy a building tomorrow and send out the enrollment brochure. There will be a test when you enter school. If you pass, you will receive an admission letter. If you fail, you will have to follow the path of a mortal."
Liu Tongan said immediately, "That's easy! We have a lot of suitable buildings here, which were the residences of corrupt officials who were confiscated before. Those residences are all new and no one has ever lived there! If you want to run a school, it's perfect there! And that corrupt official likes to watch girl group performances, so he built a building to house the trainees, which can be used as a teaching building! If we recruit students, we can recruit at least a thousand people!"
Jiang Luo: ...
Captain Liu was almost saying what he was thinking. He said cheerfully, "There's more! Actually, many of our retired special forces soldiers have good physiques. Master Jiang, would you like to consider starting with them? In fact, they are all carefully selected by the country, and their character must be acceptable. Master Jiang, you don't have to worry that they will cause trouble after learning magic."
Jiang Luo: ...
He looked at Liu Tongan speechlessly and said, "How about Captain Liu test it first?"
Student Liu actually covered his face with his hands and said after a long while: "Oh, that... that's so embarrassing!"
Jiang Luo: ...Why are you being so shy?
However, the house he mentioned is worth considering, as it would save the money on renting a school.
