Vajra Bodhi

"These are the bodhi seeds on the Vajra Bodhi bracelet. The golden light on them is quite dazzling."

Shi Yi held a bodhi seed with tweezers and examined it.

The skin was fine and lustrous. Just being close to it gave a clear feeling, refreshing and calming the mind.

These were six-petaled small Vajra bodhi seeds with a turmeric-colored rind. They were much larger than the ones he had searched for online. These larger bodhi seeds were also called great Vajra bodhi seeds online.

For this bodhi seed, Shi Yi decided to change his plans.

Before going to find the bodhi seed, he first cleaned up footprints and other traces left in the cave, and also collected the Anchor Points.

As for other traces, they would all disappear under the scouring of the heavy rain.

After finishing these tasks, Shi Yi went to the location where the bodhi seed had fallen. The moment he picked it up with a cloth, he had already teleported back to Earth.

Although he was still studying the bodhi seed at this moment, he was actually waiting for the cooldown time for teleportation.

Because his plans had changed, he intended to go to the Anchor Point under the big tree outside Anyuan Town later and then brave the rain back to Anyuan Town to eliminate any suspicion against him.

One of the two people was from the Divine Capital Divine Constabulary of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They wanted to retrieve the Vajra Bodhi bracelet and would likely mobilize official manpower. If they discovered the bodhi seed was missing, they would definitely investigate anyone who appeared near the Dan River.

At this time, the Dan River was flooding, and most people were trapped on that side. If he returned to Anyuan Town now, he could clear himself of suspicion.

Although he had a few minor issues on him, as long as the timing didn't match, it would be fine.

Moreover, he would leave this bodhi seed on Earth and did not plan to take it back.

He would change all his clothes to new ones and clean up any traces on his body.

The possibility of them finding him would be even lower!

Part of the reason for doing all this was that he had seen a faint blue aura on the bodhi seed, and he suspected it might be some kind of tracking Dao technique.

If Shi Yi couldn't deal with it, he would leave it on Earth. As time passed, this faint blue aura would definitely dissipate because Earth lacked such an aura and could not replenish it.

"This Vajra Bodhi seems to hide a secret, otherwise the golden light wouldn't be so bright. Within the golden light, those tiny black spots also don't seem simple, but it's a pity I can't see clearly."

"I'll buy a pen-shaped magnifying glass that can magnify 100 times online first, and then I'll try to see those small black spots clearly."

Shi Yi had tried taking photos and enlarging them, but unfortunately, the photos just showed a turmeric-colored bodhi seed with no special features.

Only Shi Yi's Double Pupils could see that golden light.

This was also related to Shi Yi's Double Pupils having the ability to See Through Illusions, allowing him to perceive more fundamental existences.

The Central Great World was more mysterious than he had anticipated, so Shi Yi acted more cautiously.

"I'll go back to the big tree outside Anyuan Town first, and then I'll head back to Anyuan Town in the rain."

When Shi Yi saw that the teleportation cooldown time was almost up, he cleaned his hands that had been near the bodhi seed again.

He looked at his entire body in the mirror using his Double Pupils and, confirming that he hadn't picked up anything special, picked up his oil-paper umbrella and left.

He had naturally bought rain gear, but it hadn't rained for a while, so he hadn't used it.

With a slight shift of thought, Shi Yi had left Earth and appeared under the big tree outside Anyuan Town.

It was still raining in the sky, but the rain was not as heavy anymore.

Shi Yi held his oil-paper umbrella and walked towards Anyuan Town. He stopped for a short while when passing by the roadside woods before continuing on his way.

Before long, he returned to Anyuan Town.

Shi Yi did not choose to return to his rented accommodation but went directly to the Anyang Martial Arts School.

If he wanted people to know that he had returned to Anyuan Town, going to the Anyang Martial Arts School was naturally the best choice.

At the same time, the matter of transferring his household registration also needed Zhao Cheng's help to handle, which would be more convenient.

Anyang Martial Arts School.

In the backyard hall.

"Has your Junior Brother Shi Yi returned yet?"

Lu Feng looked at Zhao Cheng and asked.

It was the fourth day since Shi Yi had left. According to what Shi Yi had said earlier, he should have returned today.

"It started raining heavily this morning. It's said that the Dan River is also flooding. If Junior Brother Shi Yi is still by the Dan River, he might be a little late in returning!"

Zhao Cheng replied.

Hearing Lu Feng's words, he knew that Lu Feng now regarded Shi Yi as a disciple, not just a registered disciple. Otherwise, Lu Feng would not have cared about this at all.

There were also some registered disciples in the martial arts school now, mostly taken in due to personal connections. Although Lu Feng provided some convenience to these registered disciples, he never proactively inquired about their situations.

In his eyes, these people were not important.

Therefore, Zhao Cheng spoke in a way that leaned towards the positive, as if there were a flood at the Dan River, Shi Yi's safety would be a major concern.

"This heavy rain is quite significant. The Dan River might be flooding!"

Lu Feng looked at the overcast sky.

He didn't know when this rain would stop.

Based on his years of living experience in Anyuan Town, it was highly likely that the Dan River would flood, depending on the severity of the flood!

Shi Yi might encounter natural disasters even while he was still by the Dan River!

Anyuan Town, thankfully, was not affected. It was a bit of a distance from the Dan River, taking about half a day to reach. Even if there was a major flood there, it wouldn't reach Anyuan Town.

"Master Lu, your disciple Shi Yi requests an audience."

At that moment, Shi Yi's voice sounded from outside the house.

"En, come in!"

Lu Feng and Zhao Cheng exchanged glances, both a little surprised, but they quickly composed themselves.

It was good news that he hadn't encountered the flood. Otherwise, it was common for ordinary people caught in floods to die.

Upon hearing this, Shi Yi entered the backyard hall and saw Zhao Cheng was also there, which surprised him a bit.

"Disciple Shi Yi greets Master Lu and Senior Brother Zhao."

Shi Yi had originally planned to find Zhao Cheng later, but it seemed that was no longer necessary!

"Was your trip smooth?"

Lu Feng looked at Shi Yi and asked.

He saw Shi Yi returning from the rain, but his aura was still very stable, and his complexion was rosy. It was clear that Shi Yi had not neglected his cultivation during these days. His Blood Essence was abundant, which was why he appeared this way.

Otherwise, an ordinary person returning from the rain, even with rain gear and wearing thick clothes, would have a pale complexion. This was due to the cold affecting an ordinary person's body and their insufficient Blood Essence.

Looking at Shi Yi's current state, Lu Feng estimated that Shi Yi would break through to the Blood Essence Realm in a few days.

This cultivation progress was a bit faster than what Zhao Cheng had mentioned.

However, considering Shi Yi's Bone Structure and his diligence, it was quite normal.

With outstanding Bone Structure, good talent, adequate cultivation resources, and hard work, it would be problematic if such a person's cultivation progress were slow.

"It was relatively smooth. I've brought the household registration documents and the relocation documents. After this, I can move to Anyuan Town and settle here."

"It's just that on my way back this morning, I encountered heavy rain. I had to take shelter by the trees outside the town for a while. Otherwise, I would have been back much earlier!"

Shi Yi replied respectfully.

This was his original plan, which was disrupted by the sudden heavy rain!

He used the shuttle function to return to the big tree outside the town and then resumed his original plan.

For this, he deliberately left some traces of sheltering from the rain by the roadside trees.

Although the possibility of someone investigating was very low, Shi Yi still did it. It only took a few minutes, a casual act.

"En, it's good that you're back. Your Senior Brother Zhao will help you with the subsequent household registration relocation matters!"

Lu Feng nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He couldn't help but feel fortunate that Shi Yi had set off early, otherwise, he would have been blocked by the heavy rain and encountered the flood!
