Attempt, Part 2

In addition to the life Attribute Points directly added, Zhang Rongfang also added an extra layer of the Civilian Skill, the Supreme Bright Void Skill, to Master Chong Xuan's.

The previous Nascent Soul Middle Stage was upgraded to the Nascent Soul Late Stage. With this addition and subtraction, it's equivalent to gaining an extra Attribute Points.

This promotion also put Yue Dewen's mind at ease, making him realize that his previous decision to let people out was correct.

"By the way, the one tracking us is Cheng Hui, the Golden Wing Tower Master. It seems this traitor is planning to climb to power by stepping on the blood and flesh of his former employer." Zhang Yunqi's face was also gloomy and ugly when he mentioned this person.

"I used to be Spirit Envoy in the Golden Wing Tower, I miss it a bit," Zhang Rongfang said, noticing his worry and offering a relaxed smile.

"Don't worry, Uncle Zhang. Are you alright?"

"It's good that you know what's going on." Zhang Yunqi nodded.

He was also worried that if Zhang Ying's Human Seed identity were exposed, the Great Dao Sect might not be able to protect Zhang Ying.

Because the Eastern Sect Secret Treasure involve the very foundation of all those Worship God and warriors.

"Also, the methods for killing the Worship God, especially the information about the core of the Statue, must not be spread. Otherwise, there have been precedents. They will kill everyone who might know about it!" Zhang Yunqi warned again.

"You mean the massacre of the city?" Zhang Rongfang felt a chill in his heart.

"The Ling Ting is high above, why would it care about the life or death of ants at its feet? They can even massacre a city by colluding with the Secret Teaching to cause trouble, let alone something so important," Zhang Yunqi sighed.

Zhang Rongfang was speechless.

After several encounters with the Spirit Person Imperial Clan, he also discovered that these people had already separated him from everyone else.

In their minds, there are only two kinds of people in the world.

One type Imperial Clan Spirit Person.

Another type is servants.

"Never mind that. Have the previous attempts made any progress?" Zhang Rongfang asked.

It's been a year, and the warriors they captured Worship God are proving extremely difficult to study.

This group of people is basically immune to the drug and has extremely high resistance.

Even slightly intense research could trigger Spirit Burst in them.

The only thing we can do is keep trying different methods to see if we can speed up the process of killing them.

"So far, we've tried quite a few methods, but the only one that's somewhat effective is burying it deep underground," Zhang Yunqi sighed.

"But even if it's buried deep, it will still be repeatedly opened up by Spirit Burst and emerge again."

"At most, we can only trap them for a while." Zhang Rongfang shook his head.

"By the way, weren't you busy today? Why did you suddenly come over?" Zhang Yunqi stood up, somewhat puzzled.

During this period, he and Zhang Rongfang basically took turns guarding the Experiment Cave. Very few people would come early.

After all, everyone has a lot to do.

"I have some ideas that I'd like to test," Zhang Rongfang.

He recalled the conversation he had with the bearded man, Yue Sheng, earlier that day.

The phrase "everything has a heart" flashed through his mind like lightning and lingered for a long time.

'That's right. If there is no heart, why do the Spirit Thread gather back to the body of the Worship God instead of converging elsewhere?'

If there is no heart, why did the Spirit Thread explode with the Worship God's body at their core?

'We didn't pay attention at first; we were completely stunned by the exaggerated self-healing and resurrection abilities of the Spirit Vein. We deliberately ignored this aspect.'

As Zhang Rongfang pondered this, he quickly strode into the depths of the cave.

Soon they arrived at a somewhat dark, deep pit hall.

He leaped down and jumped into the deep pit.

At the bottom of the pit is an open space about the size of a square basketball court.

A long-haired woman, her body covered in blood and gore, lay bound motionless in the open space.

Zhang Rongfang stepped forward, drew his knife, and lifted the woman's chin.

Her long hair was loose, revealing the woman's face.

That was none other than Spirit Vein Han Jia, who had followed Zhu Wanguo back then.

She was also the female assassin from the True One Sect Cult who had previously tried to assassinate Princess Yongxiang and framed her.

After putting down the knife, Zhang Rongfang only confirmed that she was still alive.

At this moment, he had an extremely strong feeling that perhaps this approach would lead him to the key to quickly killing the Worship God warrior!

"Heart"

He raised his knife horizontally, and with a sudden flash, slashed across Han Jia's throat.

"Let me see where you are?"

If he manages to reach the Spirit Burst, he might be able to use its Spirit Burst to calculate the distance and then work backward to determine the exact center of the Spirit Burst.

According to his observation, each Spirit Burst forms a near-perfect circle.

This is clearly a special phenomenon caused by a uniform explosion from a single point.

Regardless, this time, he had a strong feeling.

Perhaps, by utilizing Dark Light Vision, it really could be successful.

With a snap, the rope broke, and Han Jia fell to the ground, slowly getting up.

She had not eaten for a long time, and her eyes were now cloudy with dilated pupils; she was essentially in a coma.

But her body still had instincts.

This is the exaggeration of those who Worship God and warriors.

Just like the Iron Taoist Zhang Rongfang encountered back then.

Even if they lose consciousness, they still retain basic offensive and defensive capabilities.

*Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Zhang Rongfang unleashed a flurry of rapid strikes, and no matter how Han Jia dodged or defended, it was to no avail.

His current level has far surpassed Han Jia's External Medicine skills of three times.

Zhang Rongfang swung the knife in his hand again and again, recalling the situation during the previous experiment.

They had tried to find the core of the Worship God Warrior before, but found nothing.

And now, if what Yue Sheng said is true, and he really has the will, then...

That might mean their previous methods were incorrect.

'The mind unifies everything; it is the source of all power and connects everything. If it truly exists, besides calculation, I can also find it through the trajectory of Spirit Thread leaving and returning!'

Others may not be able to see the trajectory of the Spirit Thread within his body after it returns, but he can try!

Zhang Rongfang's mind was focused.

His hands moved swiftly, and as soon as Han Jia regained consciousness, he slashed with the blade.

Time passed little by little.

Unaware of the time inside the cave, Zhang Yunqi also came in to take a look while he was killing people.

But he said nothing and turned to leave.

A year has passed, and he is increasingly unable to discern the true strength of this Daozi.

The last time they met, neither side went all out, and the match was evenly matched. But that was a year ago.

And now... whoosh! With the final strike, Zhang Rongfang wielded the Autumn Rain Blade from the Zhu Wanguo. This treasured blade was incomparably sharp, the most razor-sharp of all the weapons he had ever handled.

Of course, after eradicating the Secret Teaching, this knife became his personal sword.

A flash of Silver Light, and it slashed across Han Jia's neck.

Before the blood seeped out, Zhang Rongfang suddenly stepped back, retreating dozens of meters away in the blink of an eye, and waited quietly.

In the middle of the pit, Han Jia reached out her hand, trying to cover her bleeding throat, but to no avail.

During her final death, she seemed to regain her senses, her eyes fixed intently on Zhang Rongfang.

"I'll be waiting for you down there!" Unfortunately, the words were muffled by his slit throat.

She bent over, and her body began to tremble.

Boom! In an instant, a burst of Silver Light exploded, and countless Silver Spirit Thread scattered like fireworks.

Strands of Spirit Thread, like eerie silver snakes, instantly covered a radius of thirty meters.

Within thirty meters, everything was completely covered and penetrated.

All living things were pierced and devoured by the Spirit Thread.

Unfortunately, this pit was specifically designed for Worship God and warriors; apart from the underground area, there were no living creatures to be swallowed in any other direction.

Underground, there are only insects and earthworms in the soil.

Zhang Rongfang stood at the edge of the silver sphere formed by the Spirit Thread, watching quietly.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

His eyes suddenly lit up as he noticed the Spirit Thread beginning to recede.

Without hesitation, he accelerated forward at full speed, while his Dark Light Vision eyes remained fixed on Han Jia's corpse.

Soon, the Spirit Thread receded back into Han Jia's body.

On the surface, these Spirit Thread appear to penetrate the skin through pores. Once inside the skin, their subsequent flow becomes invisible.

However, Zhang Rongfang was able to clearly see the next step of the change by relying on his Dark Light Vision.

All those Spirit Thread converged on Han Jia's left shoulder, deep within his flesh and blood; he couldn't see any deeper parts of it.

But it's right there!

Zhang Rongfang's eyes gleamed, and he swung his Autumn Rain Blade straight and precisely at that spot.

One second the Silver Thread retracted completely, the next second his treasured sword slashed across Han Jia's left shoulder! The sword was slightly hindered, but quickly cut a large, bloody gash on Han Jia's shoulder.

But it failed.

Zhang Rongfang could clearly see that the Spirit Thread were still flowing, still converging and contracting, still... No! His pupils suddenly contracted.

Deep within Han Jia's severed left shoulder wound, his Dark Light Vision, through the wound, clearly revealed a glimmer of Silver Light, slightly brighter than the other Silver Thread, shimmering and emitting a glow.

The Silver Light was only the size of a fingernail, and it was only seen for a second before it moved away to another location.

Before long, it was submerged and covered by a large expanse of Silver Thread, leaving no trace.

Zhang Rongfang's Dark Light Vision was not a complete X-ray vision. He could only see because the wound was closer to his body and he had found the core location.

That's why I happened to see the Silver Light speckle.

"What was that just now?!" Zhang Rongfang tried hard to recall what he had just seen.

Looking at Han Jia, who had re-entered the restart state.

He turned and went to the weapon rack on the side, where he took down a seemingly ordinary, slender blade.

The blade surface is silvery-white, but it appears somewhat heavy, and the cutting edge is an unusual bronze color.

This is the All Under Heaven Blade) repackaged by the Rebel Sect.

The blade is 1.7 meters long, and the handle is two palm lengths long. It can be gripped with either one or both hands.

"Try again, this time you'll see it clearly."

Zhang Rongfang gripped his long sword tightly, looking at Han Jia, who had just regained consciousness.

If the Spirit Guard Spirit Vein cannot be killed quickly, then finding the core of the Spirit Thread will be meaningless.

Since you can only kill after the Spirit Burst, what's the point of finding the Spirit Core? The biggest difference between ordinary martial artists and those who Worship God gods is that they are immortal.

If the characteristic of immortality were eliminated, the huge gap between ordinary people and Worship God warriors would be drastically narrowed.

At his current level, his agility, strength, and stamina have reached their genetic limits. Further training in these three areas would be pointless.

The only thing that would be useful to him is martial arts that enhance his recovery and defense.

That is, Hard Skill Civilian Skill.

In other words, martial arts are no longer of much use to him in terms of improving his strength.

The biggest difference between him and the Worship God warriors is immortality and physical strength.

Now, it seems that a breakthrough is on the horizon in solving the problem of immortality!
