My Perfect Immortal Cultivation Life

"Do not connect the restored Tier 8 power to the head yet..."

Upon hearing Chen Jing's instructions, the others were immediately taken aback.

Huh? What does this mean? Why won't they let us regain our strength?

For a time, everyone had their own agenda.

However, everyone verbally agreed: "Understood, we will do everything according to Lord Shura's instructions."

Hilde, who was closest to Chen Jing, had a bad feeling in her heart.

He was strapped to Chen Jing's waist, and Chen Jing could see his every move clearly. He definitely wouldn't have a chance to recover his 8th-tier strength.

Even if others verbally agree, whether they actually connect behind the scenes is something only he knows. Even if Shura is incredibly strong, he's not omnipotent. Why should he care about something that only he knows?

Hilde sighed inwardly, "Shura is both my strength and my downfall. I thought that by establishing a good relationship with Shura, I could gain an advantage and recover my strength first. But who knew that Shura would not allow us to do so..."

well!"

He looked up at Chen Jing.

By this time, flesh and blood had regrowed in his eye sockets, and the nerves in the whites of his eyes and pupils were almost completely reconstructed. Only the final step of connecting to the skull remained.

However, because of Chen Jing's instructions, he dared not do so.

So now his two dull, listless eyes look like toys, making him appear particularly shifty-eyed. Hilde's appearance wasn't bad; she could even be described as dashing.

But at this moment, he felt exceptionally lonely.

"What? Do you think that by not letting you regain your strength, I'm harming you?" Chen Jing noticed Hilde's gaze and teased.

"No...no, I wouldn't dare," Hilde quickly protested. "Mr. Shura, you have such foresight; standing high, you can see things we can't. Our lack of understanding stems from our own limited perspective..."

Unbeknownst to her, Hilde had spontaneously taken on the role of Shura's follower, perhaps without even realizing it herself.

Before taking any action, he would consider Chen Jing's thoughts first, and he would flatter Chen Jing like a lackey.

If Hilde had realized this herself, she probably would have wanted to die.

He is a powerful Rank 8 S-class expert, and also the rarest combat engineer. His rarity in the early Rank 8 stage is comparable to that of a late Rank 8 pilot.

Wherever he goes in the universe, he is never short of flowers and flattery. No corporation, not even a well-known interstellar corporation, would ever dare to offend an S-class combat engineer.

This also made him accustomed to others' flattery and respect towards him.

When has he ever been so obsequious and flattering to anyone? Anyway, he hasn't done that since breaking through to S-rank.

But now, he's quite adept at flattering Chen Jing.

Chen Jing smiled and said, "That's right, it's because I'm standing on higher ground that I can see further than you all."

"..."

Hilde's heart began to tremble.

What an arrogant and boastful person. This mere level 7 brat dares to say that they, a bunch of level 8 veterans, are not as tall as him.

Yes, you're standing the highest.

Standing so high, how come you're still stuck at level 7? Why don't you break through to level 8? Is it because you don't want to?

Hilde could easily figure out why Shura wouldn't let the heads of these human emperors regain their strength.

They definitely want to control them.

Before he broke through the barrier, these 7th and 8th rank heads followed his lead without question, which must have made Shura feel quite smug.

This kind of power to control the eighth rank is only held by the presidents of the largest interstellar corporations.

Once these people regain their strength, it will be incredibly difficult for Shura to control them again. That's why he forbade them from regaining their strength.

Of course, these were all thoughts in Hilde's mind.

Just think about it casually; you can't actually say it out loud, can you?

If we want to get out, we still need to rely on Shura. Let them not recover now; they won't recover then. Once we're out, there will be plenty of opportunities to recover.

Even if Shura wanted to control them then, he would have to consider the weight of the corporation behind them. Although they had been imprisoned under the Human Emperor's Banner for hundreds of years, the interstellar corporation would not disband easily.

"I know you don't believe me, and that's normal." Chen Jing adjusted his breathing, allowing his spiritual body to return to its peak state. "The stone man said before that your heads have been completely assimilated by the Human Emperor's Banner. If you rashly connect with the power of the real universe, I'm afraid... it will explode directly."

Li Hai's condition was very strange. Under normal circumstances, I could not have cut through the barrier with one sword, but after the sword passed through him, I had a feeling that the power of the sword light not only did not weaken, but became stronger.

In other words, it was only by combining the efforts of Li Hai and me that we were able to break through this barrier.

After Chen Jing gave a brief explanation, he fell into deep thought.

As he himself said, Li Hai's condition was very strange.

Although he appeared to be controlled by the Emperor's Banner, his soul was not completely devoured and was still fiercely resisting within his body.

The only thing Chen Jing was certain of was that Li Hai's true soul wanted to escape from here, which is why Chen Jing's sword beam received Li Hai's help and became even more powerful.

Besides that, there's another strange thing.

Logically speaking, within the machine soul space of the Human Emperor Banner, the power of the Fearless Sword Technique is far less than that of the Unbearable Sword Technique.

After all, the Unafraid Sword Technique requires the Unique Sword and Chen Jing's blood and qi strength to unleash its full power.

But just now, as Li Hai waved the branch, an intuition suddenly popped into Chen Jing's mind.

We must use the Fearless Sword Technique.

At this moment, using the Fearless Sword Technique is the best choice.

Chen Jing has always placed great trust in his intuition. To him, intuition is not some mysterious or elusive thing.

He believed that intuition was simply the human brain processing information too quickly, leading directly to a conclusion. The process itself couldn't be deduced immediately. This behavior was called intuition, or intuitive feeling.

Just now, Chen Jing felt that using the Fearless Sword Technique was the best choice.

That must be because the surrounding environment has changed, and Chen Jing's soul has vaguely sensed it, which is why he made this judgment.

but……

What exactly changed?

Just then, a series of "poof poof poof" sounds suddenly came from behind Chen Jing.

Hilde turned around curiously: "What's that strange noise?"

I rely on!

What happened?!

Many of those heads had exploded, their skulls shattered into pieces. Although they weren't dead, their already meager strength was further weakened.

Hilde looked horrified: "Holy crap, what's going on?!"

Chen Jing said calmly, "I warned them not to restore their strength for now, but those people clearly don't believe me, and there's nothing I can do about it."
