How can there be such a strong superpower?

"No need, their whispers are much more useful than that thing." Sun Rensheng pointed above his head and refused directly.

"..."

The figure looked at Sun Rensheng.

Just a thought.

The first-level authority of the folk system is Wutong... It's a pity to give it to this person.

"The location where the legend is activated should be as far away from the elementary school as possible."

He left his last words and then disappeared from the spot.

Shila-

As the figure left.

The ceiling light in the living room flickered and then came on.

Sun Rensheng looked up at the ceiling light and couldn't help but whistle.

It’s so easy to make money. Just by holding back three people, you can earn an extra three million.

If I had known it was so easy to make money, I wouldn’t have worked.

……

the next day.

Chen Lusi came to Tiance Trading again.

He found out that Si Yujie was not at the front desk, so he went into the gourd and learned about it from Xia Panqiu.

She took leave to go back and take care of her daughter.

That’s all I have to say.

Chen Lusi did not ask any further questions, but started rubbing the spirit ball as a routine.

When Xia Panqiu and Wu You saw his actions, their faces turned pale.

Next... it was another day of both pain and pleasure.

in the afternoon.

In between practicing the technique, Chen Lusi rolled a spirit ball for each of them.

This time, after Wu You swallowed the spirit ball, his reaction was more exaggerated than ever. Not only did he retch, he also covered his heart tightly.

"……Are you OK?"

Seeing Wu You's distorted face and the pain he looked like, Chen Lusi couldn't help but ask.

But Wu You didn't answer, but opened his mouth wide.

At the same time, blood vessels all over his body began to burst, and blue blood was visible to the naked eye. His spirit rushed along with the blood, continuously flowing towards his heart.

It looks like it's about to mutate.

This process lasted for more than ten seconds.

at last.

Wu You took a deep breath, and the blood vessels in his body gradually disappeared, returning to normal.

"I am fine."

Wu You raised his head slightly and replied weakly, "It's not a mutation, but the beginning of the formation of the 'stone' core. I estimate that if I swallow a few more, I will officially enter the ranks of stone holders... It's really amazing. In just a few days, I was forced to cross the barrier of the bleeding stage. If your ability is exposed, I guess those people will not only want Xiaoyan, but also you as well."

Chen Lusi: "..."

What is this person talking about?

Chapter 46 So fast?

"I mean, if your ability is exposed, you might get robbed."

Wu You struggled to stand up, looked at Chen Lusi and replied.

Chen Lusi raised a question mark when he heard this.

He didn't remember what he had just said.

"…Sorry, my authority is out of control."

Wu You realized something and reacted, saying, "I've heard before that when the core of the stone condenses, the power and ability will be enhanced to a certain extent, but the price is that it will be out of control for a period of time... It seems to be true, but it happened too quickly and I was not prepared.

However, this just proves that the power has been transferred into the 'stone', which is a good thing."

Chen Lusi was a little curious: "What do you mean... the authority has been transferred to the inside of the 'stone'?"

Wu You pointed to his heart and explained, "Many empowerers call the 'stone' condensed in the heart 'godhead' because after the stone condenses into a core, the authority and power imprinted deep within the soul will theoretically transfer to the heart stone, transforming from 'innate' to 'tangible.'"

"Then isn't this a reverse upgrade?"

Chen Lusi was stunned when he heard this. Thinking of the scene where Lu Hao could no longer use his blade control authority after the stone left his body, he asked, "Does this mean that if I encounter an opponent with a 'stone', I can just shatter the stone in their heart, and their authority and the techniques developed based on it will be ineffective?"

"Actually, when facing a normal Empowerer, if you can pierce their heart, regardless of whether the stone shatters or not, they will die. After all, it's the heart, the most important part of our body."

Wu You spread his hands and continued, "However, what you said does make sense... I've heard similar statements before, but you know the process of our cultivation, right?"

"First, forcefully absorb the spirit, overcoming the adaptation period. Then, allow the flesh and blood to accommodate the spirit, allowing it to gradually spread throughout the body. Finally, after reaching a certain stage, allow the spirit to seep into the bloodstream, allowing it to remain there for a long time, coexisting with it and flowing through the bloodstream."

"After the above three stages, when the concentration of spiritual energy in the blood reaches a certain level, the quantitative change will lead to a qualitative change, and the core of the 'stone' will condense in the heart."

"The four stages are the adaptation stage, the incarnation stage, the bleeding stage, and the tuberculosis stage."

"Have you noticed that during this process, our bodies are slowly being transformed... giving us the illusion of evolution?"

"From this perspective, the 'stone' condensed in the heart truly has the meaning of 'godhood.' What you said about reverse upgrades does make sense, but this kind of reverse upgrade isn't necessarily a bad thing. Considering the process of our body transformation, it might even be a good thing. For example, right now, my authority and power have been enhanced."

"Of course, I've just been promoted, so I don't know the specific details yet. I'll tell you secretly after I've read the relevant high-level information."

"Row……"

Chen Lusi understood and nodded. Then, thinking of something, he asked, "What if your authority is out of control now? Can you read minds? Do you still need to speak in daily communication?"

"I told you it's not mind reading! It's not mind reading! It's heart reflection! Normally, I can only sense someone's strongest current thoughts, like what you're about to say. With intense concentration, I can manage to read their every thought at that moment, but that's a tremendous burden for me.

Except for profiling newcomers or when life and death are at stake, I'd never do that if I was too bored! Why does everyone think I can read minds?

Wu You felt helpless.

"That's it."

Chen Lusi could see that Wu You must have been misunderstood many times.

So he didn't continue to stimulate him, but rubbed the spirit ball again.

After the spirit ball is formed.

Chen Lusi spent some more effort to compress the spirit ball into a size that could barely be swallowed, and then looked at Xia Panqiu.

"..."

Xia Panqiu had been listening quietly to the conversation between the two and noticed Chen Lusi's gaze.

She glanced at the spirit ball in Chen Lusi's hand, and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.

"You didn't know that the power of authority would transform into a physical entity during the 'stone' stage?"

Seeing her expression, Chen Lusi thought she had heard the previous conversation and was frightened by the changes in authority related to the "stone" stage.

"How is that possible? She knows better than me..."

Upon hearing this, Wu You also turned his gaze to Xia Panqiu, but he suddenly stopped in the middle of his words.

Because he sensed what Xia Panqiu was thinking.

He showed a surprised expression, looked Xia Panqiu up and down, and then said in shock: "Your Yunqi authority has this function? It can also..."

"Don't say it!"

Xia Panqiu immediately became anxious. She glanced at Chen Lusi and then glared at Wu You: "And don't read my mind! Are you an idiot?"

"Okay, okay, okay... Xia Panqiu said she was afraid we'd see her retching."

Wu You also turned his head to glance at Chen Lusi, then realized what was happening and couldn't help laughing, "You feed him, then we'll go out and rest for a while, and then come back to practice the use and defense of modern firearms."

"Row."

Chen Lusi could hear something behind their words, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He just fed the spirit ball to Xia Panqiu, and then left the gourd with Wu You.

"Well……"

After Chen Lusi and Wu You left.

Although the rejection reaction of swallowing the spirit ball was still quite strong.

But Xia Panqiu relaxed a little, at least he didn't have to try so hard to suppress the retching sounds.

Besides... her power was not out of control, and she was clearly still some distance away from condensing the 'stone'.

Xia Panqiu noticed this, looked down at her chest, her pretty face blushed, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

the other side.

Chen Lusi and Wu You left Hulu and just walked out of the meeting room to drink some water when they met Si Yujie, whom they had not seen in the morning, at the door.

"rest?"

Si Yujie stopped holding the cup and looked back at Chen Lusi and Wu You.

She was still wearing a black business suit, her plump and well-proportioned long legs were wrapped in slightly transparent black stockings, and paired with small high heels of the same dark color, she had a strong aura.

Rather, whenever she leaves the front desk, her aura is quite strong.

I don't know the principle either.

"Correct."

Chen Lusi responded and then asked, "Have you reached a conclusion on yesterday's incident?"

"The identity of the old lady you and Panqiu met has been found."

Si Yujie held the cup and replied, "The old lady did have a bit of dementia. Six months ago, I don't know what triggered it. She took her two granddaughters out. Then they walked to Qinyuan and the mansion and sat in the middle of the road and refused to move. The two granddaughters tried to help their grandmother up, but they didn't notice the oncoming car, and in the end, all three of them got into an accident."

Chen Lusi was silent for a moment after hearing this: "So it really is a ghost?"

“That hasn’t been clarified yet.”

Si Yujie picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee. "That happened half a year ago. Logically speaking, even if there were related urban legends, they wouldn't have become active in just six months... And, just now, I received two more eyewitness reports. Both groups of ordinary people said they saw ghosts."

"Xiaoxiao... Is someone causing trouble?"

At this time, Wu You couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Do we need to deal with it? I just got promoted."

"Oh?"

Si Yujie was stunned when she heard this. She glanced at Wu You, then slowly shifted her gaze to Chen Lusi and asked in surprise, "So fast?"

Chapter 47 The second mission

"He's feeding pigs like that, how can it not be fast?"

Wu You directly replied on behalf of Chen Lusi: "You don't know, he is getting more and more proficient at rubbing... condensing spirit balls. Do you want to try it?"

"Forced spirits like this don't have much effect on me..."

Si Yujie shook her head slightly, looking Chen Lusi up and down before looking away and back at Wu You. "It's good that you've been promoted. I'll help you apply for the stone-stage information later. As for going to the site...how's your training going?"

Wu You looked at Chen Lusi.

"Currently, Wu Youge and Xia Panqiu's techniques are basically unsuccessful."

Chen Lu thought for a moment and replied, "My proficiency in the disintegration technique has improved, but my speed in gathering the 'Invisible Blade' I stole from Lu Hao is still slow."
