Chapter 181 Is this still possible? (Subscribe)

At noon the next day, when Lin Rui brought the fully armed Wang Sen to the county town for the handover, the county governor Li Changguo and the county magistrate Dong Linghui found that Lin Rui was exhausted and listless throughout the whole process.

Dong Linghui looked puzzled. "Master Lin looks very tired? Did something happen yesterday? I wonder if I can help?"

Lin Rui wondered how he wouldn't be tired?
He worked all night last night taking care of the two seriously injured soldiers and only managed to settle them down early this morning.

Lin Rui did not dare to delay any further. He drank three cups of refreshing Shenxin tea and performed the colonoscopy surgery on Ji Xueying.

He didn't dare to delay any longer. The situation was so dangerous. His two major backers had almost perished together. The only ones he could rely on now were himself and Blood Knife Ji.

After the operation, he had to come here to hand over defense, public security, etc. to the county magistrate and others.

Lin Rui secretly felt a headache. Ever since the exchange war ended, these troubles have been happening one after another, without end.

"The ancients said that the weather is full of unexpected changes, and it really is true."

Lin Rui sighed at first, then cheered up: "But it's no big deal, I can hold on. Mr. County Magistrate, you can go ahead and don't worry about the city."

Li Changguo frowned, thinking that this guy's words were really confusing.

He nodded and said, "Then I'll leave all matters here to the Defense Envoy."

Li Changguo had been waiting impatiently for a long time, so he took off into the air and flew towards the outside of the city.

The two river banks in Wangcheng County are too long to be defended by the county lieutenant and the county soldiers alone. The county lieutenant Qin Xia can take care of the east side of the river, but not the west side.

Just last night, the dragon committed two murders along the riverbank.

This evil creature is not only cruel, but also masters several secret techniques that can force ordinary people with blood inheritance to awaken and transform into demons.

In just one night, the dragon added more than 20 followers to its demon army.

Lin Rui also cheered up and started patrolling the streets with Blood Knife Princess, Wang Sen, and 30 Dragon Riders.

The main purpose of patrolling the streets was to show off his "Blood Knife Princess" and to tell the evil spirits and the city foxes and rats that although the county magistrate was gone, there were still people in the city who could suppress them.

However, as soon as Lin Rui led his team onto the street, he saw an acquaintance in the crowd winking at him.

——That was Tang Wenlan, the high priest of the Church of Light.

This person was frowning and looking at him seriously, using his eyes and gestures to indicate that he wanted to meet him.

After a moment's thought, Lin Rui realized that Tang Wenlan must have come for the Jinggang dock workers.

When he arrived in Wangcheng, he discovered that more than half of the workers and laborers at Jinggang Wharf were believers of the Church of Light.

The high priest Tang was always tactful and kept his distance from him.

Today they must have been forced to come because the dragon blocked the river and they came for the livelihood of the workers at Jinggang dock.

Coincidentally, Lin Rui also wanted to meet the high priest of the Holy Church.

Li Changguo took into consideration that he had emptied out the Jinggang Maritime Customs Office, which was now controlled by Lin Shier's accomplice, Li Dan, the Maritime Customs Supervisor, so he simply gave him the task of pacifying and providing relief to the people of Jinggang.

Lin Rui believed that this matter could be accomplished with half the effort if the people of the Church of Light cooperated.

At this time, Lin Rui received another message.

Fenghuo Liancheng (Han Kedao): Lin Rui, I've already arranged for Fei Yunlai to be settled. Where are you now? It would be best if we could meet.

Lone Shadow Heavenly Blade (Lin Rui): I'm in the city, Professor. Is General Fei feeling better now?
Fenghuo Liancheng (Han Kedao): The situation is very bad, it’s hard to describe in a few words. We have used all the necessary medicines, but they can only slightly improve his injuries. Lin Rui, you are right, the key is his vitality. He has lost too much vitality, and we can’t count on him in the short term.

Fenghuo Liancheng (Han Kedao): That’s why I wanted to meet you. The plan we made earlier may not work.

Lin Rui performed the surgery on Fei Yunlai himself, how could he not be aware of his injuries?
Fei Yunlai's current situation is indeed very troublesome. Just repairing his biochip is enough to cause him a lot of trouble.

He shook his head slightly and thought, then let's meet them one by one.

The first person he met was the high priest Tang Wenlan, and the location was chosen to be a small tavern on the corner of the street.

Lin Rui also spent some time setting up a small magic circle inside to prevent being eavesdropped or spied on.

Soon after, Tang Wenlan stood up with a satisfied look on her face, tears streaming down her face as she saluted Lin Rui. "No wonder my sect, the Holy Thunder Tribulation Fire, recognized Master Lin. Master Lin truly has a bright heart and is truly destined to be with my sect."

Wang Sen, who had been sitting on the side and listening, almost laughed out loud when he heard this.

Brother Rui is definitely a man with a conscience, but this time he is actually being generous to others.

County Magistrate Li Changguo had actually already decided to open the granaries to release grain to provide relief to the workers and laborers at the docks.

As a result, the Church of Light not only owed Brother Rui a favor, but also had to contribute manpower to help Brother Rui suppress demons and maintain order during this period. That wasn't right. Where did all this money and food come from? Wasn't it because Brother Rui solved the Heavenly Demon case, and Li Changguo intervened and snatched the money from Brother Rui's mouth, forcibly stealing it? So Tang Wenlan hadn't thanked the wrong person.

The next person to meet is Professor Han, but he is taking care of Fei Yunlai outside the city and it will take some time for him to come over.

Lin Rui opened the skill lists of the two war spirits and fell into deep thought.

He was hesitating about which skill to use for the more than 60,000 soul points in his hand to maximize his combat power.

Lin Rui recently discovered something. The various standing meditation skills he exchanged for, in addition to the initial strengthening effect on the body and spirit, also had a period of "aftereffect".

In the next period of time, his physical fitness and mental strength will continue to be strengthened. Although the magnitude is small, the accumulated amount after several days will be considerable.

However, this "afterglow" cannot be superimposed. After switching to another type of standing meditation, it will be replaced by the afterglow of another type of standing meditation.

Therefore, the桩功 that Lin Rui had exchanged for before were actually a waste, and did not achieve the maximum strengthening effect.

Lin Rui weighed the pros and cons for a while before finally making a decision: "Ringwraith, help me copy the Grandmaster-level Divine Breathing Technique of War Spirit No. 2!"

According to the introduction provided by the Ringwraiths, this is a secret technique that can imitate the breath of God and increase both mental strength and physical fitness.

The Ringwraiths did not provide a detailed introduction, but Lin Rui intuitively felt that this divine breath technique might be very powerful!

This was indeed the case. When Lin Rui spent 6000 soul points to complete the copy, he only tried it once and then opened his eyes in surprise.

The improvement in physical fitness and mental strength brought by the Divine Breath Technique is equivalent to the level of an intermediate-level standing meditation.

However, this secret technique can also allow people to merge into the abyss! Increase the degree of integration with the abyss!

At the moment of copying just now, Lin Rui felt that his fusion degree with the 'Lord of Light' and the 'Lord of Life' had increased by at least 3%!

So this so-called 'breath of God' is actually the breath of the abyss.

When he used the divine breath technique, every breath he took resonated with the abyss.

Lin Rui instantly realized the value of this divine breath technique. It could not only be used when he cast the concept of abyss, but also enhance the power of the concept of abyss.

Daily use of divine breath techniques can also improve his compatibility with a certain abyss.

This secret technique can help him save a lot of soul power points. After all, every time the Ringwraiths help him fuse 1%, it needs 10000 soul power points.

At this moment, Professor Han walked in from outside. He looked at Lin Rui in surprise and said, "It seems that you have not only mastered the concept of the abyss, but also have an extraordinary talent in integrating the abyss. If I am not mistaken, the breathing method you are using now should be related to the abyss. Is it the Breath of God?"

Although he has focused his main energy on the lower levels recently, he is also keeping an eye on the situation at the Ninth Base.

Therefore, Professor Han also knew clearly how awesome his student was now. The hurricane this guy had created in the martial arts world was sweeping across the fourteen base cities of the Earth Federation.

"Teacher, please sit down." Lin Rui smiled and stood up to pour tea for Professor Han. "From what you just said, it seems that you also know something about the abyss?"

Professor Han laughed dumbly. "Isn't the abyss what I'm studying now? What I'm looking for is also related to the abyss."

Lin Rui thought that was right, what Professor Han was looking for now was the Abyss Source.

"Judging from your current situation, your Abyssal Talent is astonishingly high. With just a little effort in this area, you can easily gain extremely powerful strength."

After Professor Han sat down, he continued to examine Lin Rui from head to toe, and said with a tone of admonition, "The problem is that while you are utilizing the power of the abyss, the will of the abyss will also grow stronger within you.

There's a saying that can describe your current situation: you're eyeing other people's interest, while others are eyeing your principal. So, Lin Rui, you must be careful. You must know when to stop on the road to the abyss. This is a shortcut, but it will also lead you to the real abyss."

Lin Rui smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Teacher, I understand. I will definitely be careful."

During this period, more than one person has issued similar warnings to him.

"But there should be a way to guard against the Will of the Abyss. Professor, do you have any knowledge of this?"

The power of the abyss concept is so useful that it can bring about a qualitative change in the power of all his martial arts, making it impossible to give it up.

"Tianjixing does have some secret techniques that can counter the will of the abyss. I can make a list for you later, but the simplest and most fundamental method is to practice your own martial arts and strengthen your foundation."

At this moment, Professor Han's expression suddenly changed slightly. "Actually, there is another method. If you can simultaneously master the power of multiple Abysses, perhaps it can also help you fight against the will of the Abyss. As far as I know, five thousand years ago, a genius in the eastern continent of Dongji had a bizarre idea and colluded with several Abysses at the same time. It is said that this person's fusion with the Abyss has reached 80%, almost equivalent to the incarnation of the Abyss in the human world."

"Oh?" Lin Rui looked surprised. "How could such a person exist in this world? Teacher, do you know where he is now? Has he succeeded?"

"I'm not sure. He's been missing for a thousand years, but there are rumors that he's still alive. I think this path is viable. After all, he's lived for over 5000 years thanks to this method. Even if he fails, it's not because of this method, but because he didn't find enough shareholders or his own martial arts skills aren't strong enough."

Professor Han smiled and said, "It's like starting a company. If your martial arts skills are strong enough, you can own more shares. The more shareholders you find, the thinner their shares are. This makes it harder for the Abyss to control the company without you. However, to use this method, you must have a very strong Abyss talent."

Something felt wrong when he said this. Wasn't he encouraging Lin Rui to get into more abysses?
