Jingyang said, "Perhaps the two items are simply placed together."
"But it's also possible..."
Jingyang and Kurapika exchanged a glance, both thinking of the Buddha statue in their hands, and the special divine space that the Buddha statue once contained and connected to.
"Could it be that the Zhenwu Ksitigarbha Buddha statue is also connected to some special alternate dimension?"
"And that alternate dimension is where the True Martial King's treasure is located?"
Little Drop raised her hand and asked again, "But then the treasure map becomes useless, right?"
Jingyang and Kurapika exchanged a glance, then stroked their chins in deep thought again.
As he pondered, Jingyang thought of something else related to the Buddha statue, namely the divine character embodied in it.
"Aren't those two 'god' characters used to create illusions?" Kurapika asked, puzzled.
“That illusion seems to be a one-time thing, and each person can only see it once. Old Wei probably thinks that seeing it too much is harmful to physical and mental health…” Jing Yang said. “Later, when I tried it, I found that the most obvious function of this thing seems to be related to the eyes.”
"Eyes?" Kurapika naturally thought of the patriarch who had inlaid two pairs of fiery red eyes on the Buddha statue and was also concerned about the third pair in his own eye sockets.
"You'll see once you try. Hold out your hand." Jing Yang grabbed Kurapika's hand, rolled up his sleeves, and spent a few minutes drawing two characters for "god" on his hand.
Kurapika was speechless. Why draw it on his arm? He could have drawn it on the ground!
"Give it a try?" Jingyang asked.
"How do we test it?" Kurapika asked, looking around at the meadows, streams, wildflowers, blue sky, and white clouds. "If you mean we can see very clearly, then I'm sorry. My eyesight was already very good, and even if it has improved, it doesn't seem very noticeable."
"Look here," Jingyang's voice came from the side.
Kurapika turned his head and saw a ball of Nen hurtling towards his face. Feeling it posed little threat, he simply raised his hand and caught it—indeed, it wasn't much of a threat; Jingyang had only used a very small amount of Nen.
Jingyang asked, "Did you use 'Condensation' just now?"
“No…” Kurapika suddenly looked at the faint Nen ball he was holding in his hand, “You attached ‘Invisibility’ to it?”
"Hidden" is an application technique of "Zetsu". As the name suggests, it can make one's aura invisible. Even Nen users with open eyes cannot directly see the existence of aura that has been eliminated.
In the manga, Kurapika used this move to trick Uvogin. When Uvogin was off guard, Kurapika attached the "Invisibility" to the chains, and with a head suck, the middle finger binding chains tied Uvogin up, instantly knocking him out.
Only by applying the skills learned through practice can one see through the hidden secrets.
Using techniques like "Concentration" and "Concealment" depletes Nen energy. Many Nen users may not constantly activate "Concentration" during battle. Firstly, it distracts their concentration, and secondly, every bit of Nen energy saved counts, as it might be a lifesaver in a critical moment.
"You can already use 'Invisibility'?" Kurapika asked in surprise.
"Isn't this something anyone can do?" Jing Yang said. "The proficiency is still very low. I've discovered that there's a difference in proficiency between 'Concealment' and 'Condensation.' A skilled 'Concealment' user might be unable to see through even when using 'Condensation'..."
The evidence is that some Nen abilities are characterized by the fact that "no one but the person or the person affected by the ability can see them."
For example, Nakuro's "The sky knows not that I alone am harmed," and the Potklin Nen he attaches to his enemies; and Kurapika's finger-chain-like dolphin-shaped autopilot plane in the manga, all have similar characteristics...
These things, which cannot be seen by anyone except certain groups of people, are, in a sense, the highest level of "concealment".
However, is it possible that the highest level of 'condensation' exists, capable of discerning this level of 'concealment'?
Jingyang expressed his doubts.
Kurapika activated his "Concentration" ability and examined the small Nen ball in his hand, which Jingyang had imbued with "Invisibility." He could see much more clearly now.
Looking around at the scenery, every detail of the flowers and grass was crystal clear. The ripples of the flowing stream, even the faint mist on the tiny flying insects, were all clearly visible. Kurapika exclaimed, "It's as if a certain 'circle' has been added to my vision."
“Perhaps it could be called a ‘cone’,” Jingyang said.
The field of vision seemed to be a cone. Kurapika nodded thoughtfully, looked down at the two lines of divine characters on his arm, and said, "So you're saying that it's possible that some kind of divine character is hidden within the True Martial King Ksitigarbha, and together with that treasure map, we can find clues to the true True Martial King's treasure."
"We'll have to wait until we receive the package to find out," Jingyang said with a smile. "We should also get ready to go to that wedding; maybe we'll run into those two spiders."
Chapter 183 Come at me!
The address Jingyang left for Claudi was the Gengu Library in the neighboring city.
Since there was no suitable location available at the moment, he thought of the chain library owned by the female boss, Sister Rabbit.
Now that I think about it, it seems I don't even have a settlement in this hunter world, which is really inconvenient...
Xiao Di noticed Jing Yang staring at her and, puzzled, tilted her head to look over as well.
“It’s nothing. I was thinking that before we leave, we need to arrange someone to pick up the package,” Jingyang said. “The three of us are going to a wedding and won’t have time. It feels a bit unethical to just pick anyone on the road. We need to find someone we can abandon without any guilt if something goes wrong, but they can’t be a complete novice. Otherwise, even if I’m in charge, I’ll be helpless in an emergency, like a skilled cook without ingredients…”
Xiao Di raised her hand and said, "Find a member of the gang."
Kurapika said, "I can get the Scarlet Eyes from the wedding by myself."
“The mafia is good, but we should use it sparingly. Besides, I have to go find them, which is too much trouble.” Jingyang said to Xiaodi, then pointed to Kurapika, “There might be the Phantom Troupe too. Those two are very strong. If you go alone, you’ll easily die.”
Leaving aside the fact that the explosive woman who chews gum has unknown abilities, the guy disguised as Machi has quite troublesome abilities.
The first question that naturally popped into Jingyang's mind was—
Can this guy turn into Kuroro?
If so, then judging from his ability to use Machi's Nen threads, he can most likely also use Chrollo's Nen ability, "Thief's Secret".
This leads to the following question: Is this fake Chrollo's Thief's Secret a blank whiteboard, or is it a direct copy of the Nen abilities that Chrollo has stolen over the years?
If it's the former, then this imposter will be tricky and you need to be careful.
If it's the latter, then this imposter will be extremely troublesome and requires very, very careful attention.
……
Kurapika went to contact Marco and Melody.
Jingyang is still training with Xiaodi, mainly because Jingyang needs special training on some things.
Special training included a 1,000-meter sprint.
Xiao Di ran a kilometer away and waved to him from afar.
Jingyang gave an OK sign and didn't make any special starting posture, even deliberately keeping himself in a relatively casual state.
Xiao Di took out her phone to prepare for timing, raised her hand high, and then slashed it down.
The moment he saw Xiao Di sever her arm, Jing Yang dashed out, leaving a trail of air that was barely perceptible to the naked eye.
call!
Jing Yang swept past Xiao Di like a gust of wind. As he crossed the finish line, Xiao Di pressed the timer on her phone.
"How's it going? How many seconds?"
Jingyang, acting as if nothing had happened, strolled around to Xiaodi's side and leaned over to look at her phone screen.
"31 seconds and 24 seconds," Little Drop read aloud.
"That means you only ran less than 100 meters in 3 seconds..." Jing Yang was a little disappointed. "So slow! I really need to practice more."
Xiao Di suggested, "Perhaps we could distribute more air in the legs and soles of the feet."
Jingyang gave an OK sign and hopped back to the starting line a kilometer away, where he did some jumping to warm up.
The instant he landed, he used the "Flow" technique to distribute 80% of the energy on his body surface to his legs and feet, leaving his upper body with only 20% of its original offensive and defensive power.
Little Drop raised its hand high.
With a single, swift motion, Xiao Di chopped it down.
boom!
Jingyang vanished from the spot, and the ground beneath his feet cracked.
Looking ahead, along the kilometer he had traveled, there was a cracked pit every ten meters or so, and the pits were getting bigger and bigger, and the trajectory was deviating more and more from a straight line...
"laugh!!"
Jingyang braked suddenly with his heel, like an ox plowing the field, his two feet like iron plows, carving two long pits into the ground.
He looked back and realized that he had drifted quite a distance away from Xiao Di.
“30.11 seconds.” Xiao Di held up her phone to show him.
Jingyang walked over, kicking his feet as he went, and summarized: "When too much air is gathered in your feet, it is easy to damage the ground, and the broken footing makes it difficult to exert force. It's okay for short distances, but if you extend it to 1000 meters, you will inevitably make mistakes when running. This kind of running style has very high requirements for running technique and the ground's load-bearing capacity."
Xiao Di said, "Then reduce the amount of energy allocated to the legs and feet."
Jingyang nodded, then shook his head, and said, "Eighty percent of the weight is a bit too much. But the key issue is still running technique."
In the manga, Killua, who is known for his incredible speed, runs at lightning speed, much faster than Jingyang, yet he doesn't break the ground or have any problems running out of control.
"I'm not very familiar with this running style, I'll practice some more."
With the star rating, Jingyang is confident that he can at least break the 20-second barrier in the Meteor Shower mode, and 10 seconds might not be impossible.
"preparation……"
Jingyang returned to the starting line and saw Xiaodi chop off her hand. "Charge!" he shouted and ran off like the wind.
……
"Charge! All of you, charge at me!"
In the evening, Jingyang and Xiaodi found a spot that wasn't too crowded, but not too deserted either, and started fishing.
He placed a laptop on his lap, connected it to a card reader, and put his hunter's license, which he had found, into it.
After much thought, it turns out that the "Hunter License Hunter" type is the one who best meets Jingyang's needs.
You guys mess with me, so I'll mess with you back. That's not too much to ask, is it?
These people, while not usually very capable, are still capable enough to serve as tools for picking up packages in neighboring cities.
Waiting around was getting too boring, so Jingyang found a movie and watched it together with Xiaodi, each taking one earphone.
The rock sparrow was thrown nearby, and when it saw the sneaky guy, it chirped twice.
After watching the entire movie trilogy, I finally heard the call of the rock finches.
The rock sparrow perched atop the high wall observed what lay below.
From all four directions, people were slowly approaching the two people who had set up a small table by the roadside and were watching TV under a tree. Seeing this, the group who had come after spotting the hunter's license signal were speechless. Where did these two idiots come from? They didn't look like professional hunters at all; they were so careless, they didn't even look like novice hunters… Maybe these two little guys just got lucky and found a hunter's license?
"How was it?" Jingyang yawned.
