Ji Qinglin used his spiritual vision to barely see clearly the luck of the old man in black when he triggered the thunder.
The name of the technique given by the Divine Consciousness Observation is Cang Qiong Bao Jian.
In an emergency situation, I only understood part of the principle: connect the upper and lower valves, connect the internal and external energy, use yourself as bait to attract thunder from the sky, and use the enemy to bear injuries and receive punishment from heaven.
Because he was the one who was hacked, in the end he couldn't see all the details for the sake of defense.
But even if it is not complete, it still has the effect of attracting lightning. Therefore, the old man in black can deflect the lightning strike just now, giving Lei Qiong and Bai Qiucheng the opportunity to deliver a fatal blow.
According to the conjecture I had last time with the president, the ability to use the Sky Treasure Mirror was probably taught by the remains of the immortal, so it is normal that the divine consciousness and appearance cannot be fully learned.
Lei Qiong and Bai Qiucheng saw that Ji Qinglin was fine, and after hearing his reply, they knew that he might be inconvenient to explain, so they wisely did not continue to question him.
The three of them first came to the standing dead old man in black. At this time, the cold white smoke of liquid nitrogen had not dissipated around him. After his death, he could no longer resist the industrial cold. The body of the old man in black was also in contact with the ice sculpture. Also covered with a thin layer of frost.
While the severed head of the old man was not completely covered with ice and snow, Lei Qiong carefully took off the mask covering the face of the old man in black.
The three of them turned to face each other, only to see a rather uneasy old face under the scarf of the old man in black.
His eyes were round but lifeless, the bridge of his nose was collapsed and slightly sunken, and the lower part of his mouth was even missing skin and flesh, exposing his gums which were very uncomfortable to look at.
Ji Qinglin thought to himself that if the old man hadn't forced the three of them into a desperate situation just now, just looking at their faces and bodies, it seemed that they were just corpses that had decomposed to a certain extent.
But Lei Qiong and Bai Qiucheng were both shocked when they saw the old man's face.
"What? President, Elder Bai, do you know each other?"
Lei Qiong frowned and nodded:
"Qing Lin, you came here relatively late and don't know me. This old man is none other than the father of Sima Zhao in Nanhua District. Sima Chang hates him, but he should have been dead for many years. How could it be? No wonder there is something very strange about him. Familiarity."
Bai Qiucheng snorted coldly and said:
"The corpse repair skills in Nanhua District are really not selective. They don't even let go of the corpse of the former old president."
Ji Qinglin had just seen that there was no blood in the wounds left on the old man's body, and only black corpse air was flowing out. Ji Qinglin guessed that it had something to do with Nanhua District, but he really didn't expect that it was the body of their old president.
Even though he is not sure yet, if Sima Zhao really did this, he would be extremely filial.
President Lei Qiong shook his head slightly and said:
"Sima Changhen was considered to be the top master among the four foreign guilds at the beginning. It barely makes sense that their disciples would use the corpse cultivation technique to retain such a fighting strength, but where did he learn the ability to attract thunder? ? And during the entire attack, he did not use the corpse cultivation technique that he should be proficient in, but kept drawing thunder like a stupid young man."
Having said this, Lei Qiong looked at Ji Qinglin again, and both of them thought of the immortal's body.
Ji Qinglin did not answer the question and said with a wry smile:
"Fortunately, otherwise the three of us might not be able to defeat him if we don't make some sacrifices."
Bai Qiucheng didn't know about the immortal's body and asked:
"What should I say now? Bringing the body of their old president to hold him accountable. I don't think they can get rid of this matter no matter what."
Ji Qinglin waved his hand and said:
"I think we have to wait a little longer."
After saying this, Ji Qinglin suddenly realized something was wrong, and hurriedly turned back to look at Yuye subconsciously. Sure enough, he saw that the latter had also raised his pistol, and hurriedly stopped him:
"Slip of the tongue! All alarm cleared. You two can come down now."
Chiye: I know it was a slip of the tongue, because there is a missing word "please" compared to the secret code.
Yuye: This doesn’t seem to be a problem of few words!
Lei Qiong said doubtfully:
"Two? Is there anyone else above besides Yu Ye?"
"No, there is also the coal boss I raised. President, I don't think there is any need to deal with the matter of Sima Chang's hatred in a hurry. After all, the threat has been removed, and the body and the initiative are in our hands. It's better to try to figure out the situation first. Besides, it would be better for you and Elder Bai to take the body back and keep it tightly."
After Ji Qinglin finished speaking, his consciousness-consciousness sword energy gathered at his fingertips, and he struck the dead Sima Changhen's head between his eyebrows with a sword.
Don't make the same mistake twice.
After stabbing Ji Qinglin, he still cupped his hands and said:
"Good, good! Forgive me."
Looking at it, Lei Qiong and Bai Qiucheng didn't know whether to call him ruthless or compassionate.
Lei Qiong looked up at the black clouds that were about to drift over, nodded and said:
"You are right to think about it. This corpse was sent out twice, and it was still able to directly target the old president of the South China District. This means that they most likely have no other combat power available. Besides, there is no guarantee whether this is a frame-up or not. , OK, Qiucheng and I will take the body back for preservation first, Qinglin, do you want to go back together?"
At this time, Yu Ye also jumped down from the ruins. Because he was afraid that Lei Qiong would see the clues, Chi Ye returned his body to Yu Ye.
"President, Elder Bai."
Hearing Yuye's polite gesture, Ji Qinglin shook his head and said:
"I still have some unfinished business here, so the president and Elder Bai will go ahead."
In this wilderness, what other things do the two masters and disciples have to deal with when they are alone?
The answer seems somewhat obvious.
So Lei Qiong didn't have the nerve to ask, so he just nodded and worked with Bai Qiucheng to remove Sima Changhen's body and carry it back to the car.
"Then let's go first, Qinglin. This matter is very strange. Please pay attention to your safety and contact us at any time if you have any questions."
"Okay, President."
It wasn't until the two of them left that Chi Ye's virtual form appeared again. He pouted his mouth and said proudly:
"How about Master, the disciple's two shots were pretty accurate, right?"
Listening to this request for credit, Ji Qinglin smiled and said:
"Yes, yes, at least I didn't blow the back of my master's head. But next time, the password must be changed to be more special."
Yuye asked:
"Master, since someone is targeting you, wouldn't it be safer to go back to the grocery store?"
"If Bai Qiucheng is right, then the grocery store should have been targeted a long time ago. In comparison, the Old City Courtyard is safer."
Chiye said worriedly:
"But the immortal's body and money are still there, and I'm afraid that some master will get in there."
Ji Qinglin flicked Chi Ye's virtual forehead, and the virtual nerve signals that were clicked were also transmitted to his brain.
"You little money fanatic really follows Master. Don't worry. As long as you are in your right mind, they won't be able to find the immortal's body. It's going to rain. Let's go home."
————————
At the same time, in the high-tech Nanhua District building, the lights were still on in the heavily secured third-floor basement.
In one of the rather gorgeously decorated offices, Sima Shi, the acting president of the South China District, was sitting on the main seat looking at the huge glass water tank next to him.
What is soaked in the nutrient solution in the tank is the brain of the former president Sima Zhao.
A large number of neural pipelines are connected to the bottom of the brain, and next to the water tank is a neural external robot purchased from Beixin District that was originally used for trials by neurosurgery medical students.
Ji Qinglin's last kick to the sky just kicked Sima Zhao's head out. It looked like it was not damaged, so Sima Shi hurriedly led the team back to try to treat him.
It's not that he is very loyal to Sima Zhao, it's just that Sima Zhao knows too many secrets about the Chamber of Commerce, and there is a special combat power that only he can control. If these things are lost together, it will be a huge loss to the Chamber of Commerce.
Relying on current technical means, Sima Zhao was barely able to regain consciousness.
Sima Zhao, who had spent his whole life seizing and disassembling other people's bodies, really couldn't accept this result, so he vented madly for a while by connecting to an external robot.
But after the madness, he had to accept the reality. Fortunately, the Sima family was still in power, and Sima Zhao was not afraid of being liquidated.
Sima Shi's request is simple: inform him secretly of the Chamber of Commerce in accordance with the president's transition process, transfer relevant powers to himself, and finally officially announce his retirement.
Correspondingly, Sima Shi can guarantee that he will live an ideal second half of his life in the conscious world built by the brain in the vat.
Knowing that he had very few chips left, Sima Zhao only made one request:
Allow yourself to send special combat forces to kill Ji Qinglin. As long as you kill him, everything else is acceptable.
This special combat power is none other than Sima Zhao's own father, Sima Changhen.
At the beginning, Sima Changhen had almost reached the peak of corpse cultivation, but this did not satisfy him.
Even if he is not like ordinary Qi practitioners who can only cultivate the realm of life and can rely on the corpse cultivation technique to cultivate the realm of death, in the final analysis, it is still the end of human beings and is still not as good as the natural power of heaven and earth that he has pursued all his life. Therefore, Sima Chang hates The rest of his life was spent searching for the remains of the legendary immortal.
The hard work paid off, and he finally found a piece of the immortal's body in the legendary tomb.
It's a pity that fate plays tricks on people, but he can't use this body that can activate the power of heaven and earth.
Not to mention that my own corpse cultivation technique was incompatible with the thunder-inducing technique taught on the body. I had not read the instructions in the guide and said that if the immortal energy channel forcefully draws the thunder, I would be struck by lightning.
It seems that the immortal's body still has to follow the corresponding cultivation order, but the old Sima Changhen has no time to look for the remaining remains.
The thunder-inducing technique obtained in his hand was obviously only part of the technique for inducing the power of heaven and earth, but it was already tempting enough for Sima Changhen, who had been pursuing breakthroughs all his life.
Especially when the words of the skill ring in my ears: "Heaven and man are one, but with sincerity, the energy of the nine heavens can be borrowed for my use."
After all, Sima Changhen was unable to resist the temptation of the power of heaven and earth, and forcefully attracted the thunder from the sky, causing him to be struck by lightning and killed.
Fortunately, before the final try, he had already arranged the position for his son Sima Zhao and told him that if he died, the body would no longer be subject to the restrictions of practicing the thunder art, and he could use it as the combat power of the chamber of commerce.
However, he needs to promise that his corpse and the method of drawing thunder can only be used for the right path of the Chamber of Commerce, and must not be used for personal gain. Otherwise, no one knows what the consequences will be if he borrows the sky thunder.
Because he had seen the power of his father's thunder-inducing technique, Sima Zhao had been searching for the immortal's body, so when he learned that Lei Qiong owned part of it, he thought of robbing the immortal's body and killing Lei Qiong directly.
But because he also used the corpse repair technique to control his father's body, the corpse energy on Sima Changhen's body was seriously injured by the thunder and Lei Qiong was also affected by the mutual restraint, causing the temporary interruption of control.
He also thought that if he really killed Lei Qiong, Xichang District would definitely know that it was him, and it would be even more troublesome to deal with Xichang then, so he didn't do any more finishing blows.
Sima Zhao now seems to understand the result of what his father said at the beginning, but it doesn't matter now.
Sima Zhao, who had witnessed his father's thunder technique with his own eyes, was completely confident.
Listening to the thunder outside the video surveillance center building, Sima Zhao had only one regret in his heart: he could not see Ji Qinglin's tragic death under the lightning strike.
Thank you for your reading and support! (After all, there is cyberspace, but it would be too rude to not have a brain in a vat. I don’t know if I am a brain in a vat writing this. I just hope that the scientists who do this will not forget to pay the electricity bill for my tank, Ula, Happy weekend everyone.)
