His voice was calm, yet it possessed a power that inspired genuine belief.

A message popped up on the phone on the sink; it was an intelligence file sent by Li Le.

Chapter 511 Clues and Breakthrough (Long Chapter, Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Actually, it's quite easy to guess what Leon Lai, the "boss," is thinking.

Dawn is the only organization among all the major organizations that completely disregards the lives and deaths of ordinary people.

Even Moonlight sometimes needs to worry about its reputation and try to cover it up, but Leon Lai doesn't have that concern. Their reputation is already completely ruined, so they don't need to care about it.

Furthermore, judging from the 'boss's' style of doing things in Alaro, he is the kind of person who will stop at nothing to achieve his goals, so his actions are probably considered excessive in Dawn.

From his perspective, there was no need to consider the problems of the common people of Ellen, or even the problems of the city of Ellen.

Therefore, he will most likely choose to cooperate with that primitive church that worships evil gods to deal with 'Hao Yi'.

In the Verola incident, the boss showed a strong desire to obtain the Verola, even going so far as to take matters into his own hands. He seemed to know some other secrets about the vehicle.

In fact, as a supernatural item, the Verola did not transmit all its information directly to its controller like other supernatural items.

So far, all Heo knows is that the Verola can travel through space quickly, and in the fastest case, it can travel from Alano to Jordan, crossing several time zones, in just fifteen minutes.

Furthermore, this traversal process appears to be energy-free; the Verola can draw energy from the mysterious 'tunnel' itself.

However, to initiate a time travel, detailed coordinates are required. When traveling, it is necessary to know which direction to take along the planet's surface from the starting point to the destination, and the approximate straight-line distance.

To reach a specific, precise location, one must also mentally construct the scene of the destination.

If even one of these pieces of information is wrong, the Verola could take people to some inexplicable place, such as crashing headfirst into a volcano.

In particular, the scene construction at precise locations requires extremely high precision.

For ordinary people, this is almost impossible. Even for superhumans at the C or B level, their memories will be somewhat inaccurate, making it impossible to construct a highly accurate scene.

But this was relatively easy for He Ao, who possessed super memory.

However, the Verola can only travel on the planet where the main world is located. He tried to have the Verola take him directly to the ruins, but the Verola did not respond.

I don't know if it's because it's impossible, or because some key information is missing.

You can go to the sky and underground, though.

He Ao had a feeling that the 'boss' wanted to acquire the Verola for other reasons than simply wanting a convenient means of transportation.

In conclusion, for the 'boss', cooperating with the original church should be the best option.

When the evil god descends, as long as he runs fast, he won't be the one who gets hurt. He might even be able to find a way to get some other benefits from the original church.

For example, the spacetime anchor point for opening the relic passage.

The only question now is whether the 'boss' knows about the existence of the original church.

However, even if the 'boss' didn't know, he should have realized something after last night's events.

So, following the trail of the World Tree and the Primitive Church, He Ao believed that the probability of him meeting the 'boss' was very high.

If Dawn and the Primitive Church join forces

Two opponents have become one opponent. Although the difficulty has increased, the problem has also become simpler.

While organizing his thoughts, He Ao also looked through the information Li Le had sent him.

The military police captain had already hung up the phone, and He Ao walked outside while flipping through the documents.

Li Le did a good job with intelligence work. Although the World Tree was well hidden, he still managed to identify four people who might be core members of the World Tree and pinpoint the possible location of the World Tree Ruodan branch.

Of the four suspected core members, the first was a young woman named Rani, with E-rank strength.

He Ao frowned when he saw the name, then looked at the photo and shook his head helplessly.

Rani was the first victim who died near the martial arts gym, leaving behind the message 'It's coming'.

He Ao glanced at her information and then moved on to the next person's information.

The second one is a burly man named Andrew, who is suspected to be Category D.

Li Le found out his approximate residence and learned some of his combat preferences.

The third woman is a woman in her thirties named Lyanna, wearing glasses, and she looks mature and charming in the photo.

This one also has a residence, as well as some food preferences and personality analysis.

Although the woman lived alone, Li Le analyzed that she must have been married before and likely had strong personal desires, frequently purchasing personal toys.

He Ao's eyes quickly swept over the information until he saw the fourth photo, at which point his gaze paused.

The fourth person's name was Gade, and he was a smiling young man.

He Ao had met this young man just last night.

But when he saw this young man yesterday, the young man's smile didn't have this 'vitality'.

This young man is the same one who greeted the 'visitors' at the club entrance yesterday; he's the long-dead young man controlled by the shadows.

After He Ao killed the woman, the young man seemed to lose control and fell at the door. The body should now have been taken away by Moonlight.

He Ao continued reading the information about the young man named Gade.

Li Le added some special analysis to the young man's profile, believing that this Gade and the first woman, Rani, were very likely a secret couple.

The physical distance between the two when they are together is less than that that should be between normal colleagues, and they often go out to do things that resemble a 'date'.

Moreover, the two often went to a certain area in the southern city, but Li Le was certain that it was not a branch of the World Tree. Therefore, Li Le guessed that the two probably had some hidden secrets in that area.

However, both of them demonstrated a high level of counter-surveillance ability in protecting this secret, so Li Le never figured out what the secret was.

Now, both of them are dead.

He Ao turned off his phone and walked into the yard.

It was early morning, and some disciples were already training outside the gate.

In a corner of the courtyard, Alifia was half-crouched, slowly practicing a set of boxing techniques.

He Ao used his divine sense to scan Alifia's body.

It's past dawn now, and Alicia should have just absorbed the energy of this dawn and is now circulating it.

The practice of cultivation involves 'digesting' these energies.

At dawn, He Ao also got up and practiced meditation. After finishing, he closed his eyes and quietly breathed in and out until he was woken up by a phone call from the military police captain.

He has been living like this almost every day since he began practicing martial arts.

Although after refining Qi into Spirit, his body would naturally absorb the surrounding energy even in his sleep, he still maintained the habit of cultivation.

He Ao's gaze was fixed on Aliphia; he had always been quite curious about Aliphia's cultivation methods.

At this moment, Alifia was using a set of fist techniques that He Ao had never seen before, and this set of fist techniques was quite different from the body tempering technique.

The Body Tempering Technique is a martial arts method created by a medical professor in the dungeon world based on his own summary of martial arts principles, which inevitably incorporates many modern medical ideas.

The core of its exercise is to stimulate muscles in a certain way to increase the body's energy capacity and thirst for energy, so that the body can naturally absorb energy from the air without the aid of breathing techniques.

Therefore, the practice of body-strengthening techniques sometimes requires the use of external fitness equipment.

The set of punches that Alifia uses is more like mobilizing the muscles' natural 'breathing'. Through the contraction and relaxation of the muscles, it naturally achieves an effect similar to 'breathing and exhaling', thereby absorbing and digesting energy.

This is more like a weakened version of breathing techniques; however, this boxing style also differs from breathing techniques in some ways.

Perhaps because the main world has been lacking energy for a long time, this set of boxing techniques in the main world can not only absorb external energy, but also mobilize the energy within one's own body.

During a punch, one's energy is directed to certain limbs, temporarily enhancing the strength of those limbs.

This method obviously still has many flaws, and its operation is not smooth in many places.

However, He Ao also noticed that the movements of Alifia's boxing style were somewhat similar to the movements she made when frying noodles yesterday. The smooth movements of that noodle-frying style seemed to be something she had modified from her boxing style.

What she is doing now is fine-tuning her movements, relying on He Ao's guidance yesterday to modify the boxing technique she has been practicing for a long time.

Learn one thing and infer others.

This martial arts talent reminded He Ao of Rijette.

Because of the long time that had passed, the body tempering technique that Regid had acquired was somewhat vague and incomplete. However, since he had no one to guide him, he could only figure it out on his own and slowly explore his way forward.

At this moment, Alifia's body had naturally blended into the surrounding environment, no longer possessing the striking beauty of yesterday. Standing in the corner, she was like an old wall and green grass, attracting no attention at all.

But this return to simplicity and authenticity is, in He Ao's eyes, a different kind of natural beauty.

However, this simple and natural beauty only lasted for a very short time before it suddenly shattered.

When making a pushing motion to the right, Alifia seemed to encounter a problem. No matter how she adjusted the position of her hand, she could not maintain the perfect and smooth flow of energy in her body.

She was half-squatting, her legs apart, her right leg bent, and her knee pointing to the right.

Slightly straighten your left leg, place your left hand in front of your abdomen, and push your right hand forward.

The problem was with her right hand.

No matter how she tried to adjust it, the energy in her right hand could not flow smoothly.

"Keep your hands still, and bend your left knee slightly."

At that moment, a calm voice rang in her ears.

She subconsciously followed the voice's instructions and bent her left knee. In that instant, the previously blocked energy flowed freely, and the efficiency of energy flow throughout her body increased dramatically.

She looked up in surprise, towards the direction the voice came from, "Master He Ao..."

Then she scratched her head awkwardly, unsure of what to say for a moment, and could only say somewhat timidly, "You're awake... Do you want to have breakfast?"

“No need, I’m going out for a bit, I’ll eat on the way,” He Ao smiled and waved his hand. “You go about your business. Remember, the Tao is one, but also myriad. Your body is a whole.”

After saying that, he walked towards the courtyard gate.

"Ok!"

Alifia nodded emphatically.

The Tao is one, and it is also myriad.

After watching He Ao leave, she pondered his words and began practicing her boxing while sensing the subtle changes in her body.
