Chapter 97: Pursuit (2)



The hall was incredibly spacious .

At the center of the hall was a burning brazier . The whole room was lit up with the flickering light of the fire .

At the very front of the hall was a massive research workbench, elevated like it was an altar . On top of the workbench were all kinds of strange items .

The Spirit Race individual stood behind the research workbench, floating in midair like a ghost .

The Spirit Race were created from consciousnesses . Like Patelocke, they had no real physical body; they were pretty much beings made completely with energy .

Because they were lifeforms made from consciousnesses and were made of energy, they had chosen to maintain the same appearances as before they had been converted – they were exceptionally tall and had long limbs . His body was covered in strange inscriptions, and it was even possible to see his dark skin .

He floated calmly in midair, roughly half a meter off of the ground, with a cloak draped over his shoulders .

Su Chen thought to himself, “Ghosts don’t need to wear clothing . This means that he has likely kept the same habits as he had before he was converted, or perhaps he believes that it’s improper to be naked even as a ghost . ”

The Spirit Race individual didn’t seem to be surprised by their arrival .



In reality, the Spirit Race were almost always calm and cool . They were used to being alone and preferred it . Their emotions had disappeared along with their body, making them like an old well that very rarely rippled .

Even if the sky were to collapse in front of him, he might not behave all that differently .

When she heard what the other party said, Ji Hanyan coldly harrumphed, “We’ve finally found you, you damn tunneling rat . ”

Because of their solitary tendencies, the Spirit Race preferred to live in a place far away from other people . In addition, their race was accustomed to living underground, making it a natural home for them . As such, the Spirit Race were often referred to as rats that liked to live in tunnels .

Ji Hanyan’s words were not meant to earn favor, and she spoke ugly-sounding words right off the bat . Silence didn’t grow angry . All he said was, “Poisonous words won’t help you at all . It will only result in loss of the poise that you originally possessed . ”

“But it makes me feel very good,” Ji Hanyan replied .

Silence shook his head gently . “Only by elevating your heart will you find real joy . My confused, sharp-tongued little lamb, it’d be better for you to find the direction you lost sooner rather than later . ”

Killing intent flashed across Ji Hanyan’s eyes . “I’m not one of your lambs!”

As she spoke, she unleashed Frostbird White Ice Fist in his direction .

The force behind the punch didn’t seem that impressive . It was just a simple punch, but all of the power behind it had been compressed . The trail of ice followed along the trajectory of Ji Hanyan’s punch, spreading toward Silence .



This fist alone was enough to confirm that Ji Hanyan’s strength had increased greatly from before .

However, this powerful strike seemed to run into some kind of formless resistance when it got close to Silence . It came to a stop right before it reached Silence, and cracks appeared right in front of him like a dense spiderweb .

Some kind of invisible barrier had absorbed Ji Hanyan’s strike entirely .

When Su Chen saw this, he felt like it was quite similar to an Ancient Arcana Technique known as Crystal Wall .

Silence shook his head with a bit of regret . “You’re too reckless, young human . I was originally planning on having a conversation with you . ”

“That’s fine . I wanted to talk with you too, but you should first obediently be bound!” Ji Hanyan unleashed another punch .

The Crystal Wall in front of Silence didn’t seem very powerful . If a single punch was enough to reduce it to this state, the next punch would definitely shatter it .

Boom!

The energy billowing from the fist did indeed shatter the Crystal Wall . Countless crystal shards flew through the air, glittering as they refracted the light that shone on them .

However, Ji Hanyan’s punch wasn’t able to wound the person she wanted to wound . The frigid blow passed right through Silence’s chest, but it couldn’t harm him at all, as if he didn’t actually exist in that spot .



“That looks like Nihility Body,” Su Chen thought to himself .

Silence was still unperturbed . “That might be very difficult for you to do . You are all too weak . ”

“Weak?” When he heard this, An Siyuan could no longer remain calm .

He was still the Clear River City’s City Lord and a Light Shaking Realm expert, while his opponent was just a low-tier Spirit Race individual . How dare he look down on them with such scorn?

It was very easy to determine the social status of a Spirit Race individual . Because they were made from conversion and had given up their former statuses, they had no fathers or mothers . Their surnames were meaningless . Most Spirit Race individuals used names for symbolic reasons and only had one character in their names . Only high-status Spirit Race individuals would have complex names . This was the way to distinguish them from other Spirit Race individuals .

They only needed to hear his name to know what kind of status he had .

Low-status Spirit Race individuals had names with one character, while middle-status and high-status individuals had names with two and three characters, respectively . The leader of the race could have four, as well as a “crown title” in front of their name . For instance, the current leader of the Spirit Race was known as “Menelaus the Wise” .

Silence didn’t have a second character in his name, meaning he was a low-status Spirit Race individual .

Even though Spirit Race individuals were strong individually, they weren’t so strong that a low-status Spirit Race individual could totally overlook a Light Shaking Realm cultivator . Otherwise, the Spirit Race would’ve been invincible a long time ago .

For a low-status Spirit Race individual to ignore him like this, how could he not be enraged?

“Yes, weak!” Silence replied very sincerely .

He glanced at An Siyuan . “I can feel the stores of surging energy within your body . That energy is powerful enough to overturn the rivers and the seas . If you unleash an all-out attack, you can easily level this mountain . ”

“As long as you know this . ”

“But so what?” Silence smiled slightly . “Materialistic power is vain in the end . Only consciousness power is lasting . You humans are mired in the pursuit of materialistic power, but you’ll never understand the importance of having a powerful consciousness . You’ve lost your direction in your craving for material things and have made misstep after misstep in your advancement . No matter how much physical power you have, you’re just viewing things through rose-tinted glasses . It’s all just an illusion . ”

“Lies!” Lu Qingguang barked angrily .

As he barked, a purplish-blackish wave of energy suddenly shot forward from him, soundlessly charging at his opponent .

Su Chen knew that this was probably the Ripple technique that Lu Qingguang was well-known for .

The ripple technique contained powerful vibrational frequencies . It could achieve tremendous jolting effects when used on an opponent . As such, its unique properties made it so that its initial attack power was only average, but could be layered multiple times to achieve incredible results . Because the effects were multiplicative, if he were given enough time, the power of his attacks would reach a staggeringly high level . In addition, he could use these kinds of shock attacks to attack any opponent . Even a Spirit Body wouldn’t be able to avoid this kind of attack .

Silence was a Spirit Race individual and had the Nihility Body Ancient Arcana Technique . Other skills might not be able to affect him much, but Ripple would definitely be effective against him .

Even so, this attack that logically should have been effective was like a rock tossed into a body of water after passing through Silence’s body . All it caused was some ripples, but it didn’t have any substantial effects .
