Godspeed! The Flying God's Core Flame Talent!
Bai Yuan clenched his fist, his nails digging into his palm.
Through countless cycles of reincarnation, every step he took was a difficult journey through betrayal and misunderstanding.
It wasn't that no one was willing to understand him; it was that every attempt to speak the truth only resulted in deeper rifts.
The Core Flame burned in his palm, and the "3" mark slowly rotated in the firelight.
Suddenly, the Core Flame trembled violently, not with the previous fluctuating intensity, but with a deeper and more powerful pulse.
Like a heart awakening.
It was responding to him.
It is not a cold, lifeless object, nor a silent source of energy, but a fellow traveler who journeys alone through countless reincarnations.
This is how I'm telling him.
I've walked this road before.
It was a tough journey, but I made it through.
You've come this far too, haven't you?
The Core Flame suddenly exploded into a blinding golden light.
The brightness was more intense than ever before, enveloping the entire room in a brilliant halo.
Bai Yuan subconsciously raised his hand to shield his eyes, but the light pierced through his palm, arm, and chest, shining directly into the deepest part of his soul.
The light was not scorching, but warm;
It's not oppressive, it's gentle.
It's like someone is in a very, very far place.
She extended a hand to him, shook it gently, and then let go.
Bai Yuan lowered his hand, staring blankly at the Core Flame in his palm.
The golden halo lingered around the edge of the Core Flame for Jiujiu.
A beam of light faintly illuminated within the Twelve Law Patterns.
At the center of those interwoven patterns of laws, at the core where the Core Flame's light shines most brightly.
Something is coalescing.
A coin hovers above the Core Flame.
It's about the size of a regular Federation Credits, and its color is dark gold, old and mottled, as if it has been steeped in the passage of time for millions of years.
The Flipping Coin, imbued with the power of a certain Demigod, flutters about, cunning, light, and elusive.
Throwing it into the sky, it can tear through space and time, granting unparalleled Godspeed.
But he remembered, he clearly remembered, how the Flame Reaver obtained the Flipping Coin in the game.
After getting the coin, instead of tossing it high in the air, he threw it on the ground.
Cipher maintains his Godspeed through lies --
When she tosses the Flipping Coin high into the air, she gains unparalleled Godspeed.
As long as people believe this, she can run faster than the wind and faster than the light.
But having gone through those cycles, he no longer believed the lie of the Godspeed of the deceiver.
By throwing it to the ground, he can catch up with people using the Godspeed even faster.
Bai Yuan reached out and touched the dark gold Cat Ear Coin with his fingertips.
The cool metallic touch came from my fingertips, and the textured surface of the coin felt slightly warm.
A strange, light, elusive force, like the wind, surged into his body from the coin.
It intertwined with the golden halos deep within the Core Flame.
His Remembrance at that moment overlapped with someone's voice.
The voice came from deep within the coin, carrying the languor and cunning characteristic of a cat.
When the silver-haired, cat-eared girl was held in Bai Yuan's palm.
It seemed to have come alive from his Remembrance, tilting its head and giving him a sly smile.
The cat's eyes were full of mischievous intent, as if saying, "I'm going to see a good show."
"Ready--"
Her voice was like a fleeting breeze, lightly brushing past my ear, the last syllable carrying a hint of laughter.
"Hold on tight--"
Before he could finish speaking, a strange force exploded from the Cat Ear Coin, spreading along Bai Yuan's arm and throughout his body.
That's the Godspeed.
It entered his body, flowing through his meridians, probing and adapting to this unfamiliar vessel.
Bai Yuan's legs involuntarily tensed up, and his feet felt as if they were being lifted off the ground by something.
He couldn't explain what that feeling was like.
It wasn't the wind carrying him; it was time that slowed down around him.
Bai Yuan moved his feet and disappeared from the window, the next second he was standing on the other side of the room.
It was so fast that even he didn't have time to react.
He looked down at his feet, then at the Cat Ear Coin still warm in his palm, and a slow smile spread across his face.
Cipher's Godspeed is the power of the Cat Ear Coin that can tear through space and time.
He can be like a gust of wind, a ray of light.
A ghostly force traversing the battlefield.
The flow of time in the room returned to normal.
The night breeze continued to blow outside the window, but the Cat Ear Coin was still slightly warm.
Bai Yuan gripped it tightly and looked out the window.
The night sky was dark, but the stars were bright.
The brightest star seemed to be winking at him.
It tilted its head and smiled, a smile that conveyed a sense of relief, as if saying, "You've finally come."
Yet, he could clearly sense that person's presence.
Cipher.
The companions you couldn't save in your past life.
In this life, I will inherit your power.
Bai Yuan gripped the coin tightly, the dark gold cat ears burning slightly in his palm.
He looked up and gazed at the night sky outside the window.
The star was still twinkling, far away and bright, as if responding to him.
Those people you couldn't save in your past life, I will save for you as well.
Bai Yuan swept back from the darkness outside the window, his Black Robe fluttering behind him.
The dark red patterns shimmered faintly in the moonlight.
He landed in the center of the room and ran all over Eastsea City in one go.
From the Spirit Pagoda to the Eastsea Academy, from the Eastsea Academy to the wilderness outside the city, and from the wilderness back to the Spirit Pagoda.
No one discovered him; even the City Defense System failed to detect his presence.
The Black Calamity Set concealed his presence, and the Godspeed allowed him to travel through the cracks of time.
Black Calamity's Godspeed.
Bai Yuan looked down at his hands and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
With these two things, he became practically an omnipresent ghost.
Unless you encounter an opponent whose skill level is significantly higher, most people simply can't defeat him.
You can't hit him with your attacks, you can't keep up with his defenses, and you can't outrun him.
Those so-called agility-based Soul Master are no match for him, not even as fast as snails.
He can appear in several places at the same time, making it impossible to predict where he will land next;
Even when faced with an opponent they can't defeat, they can retreat with ease using their Godspeed.
He walked to the bedside and sat down, calming the churning breaths within him.
The Soul Power flowed through the meridians, becoming even more abundant than yesterday.
He has already broken through that three-ring barrier.
His level 34 Soul Power was as solid as a rock.
I'll go to the Spirit Ascension Platform again these next few days to try and get a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
With three Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring spinning beneath his feet, who would dare underestimate him?
Bai Yuan leaned against the headboard and closed his eyes, the smile still lingering on his lips.
This was indeed a very fruitful experience; Cipher's Godspeed was extremely important to him.
He was in a situation where he was surrounded by powerful figures at the Titled Douluo level, and he could easily be exposed if he wasn't careful.
With the Black Calamity Set concealing his presence, and the Godspeed as a life-saving charm, even if someone discovers anything amiss...
He was also confident that he could escape unscathed before those powerful figures could react.
Bai Yuan lay down on the bed, staring at the ceiling, and retracted the Black Calamity Set into his body.
Hold the Cat Ear Coin in your palm.
The "3" in the Core Flame is glowing faintly again.
One of the Twelve Law Patterns became brighter than before.
Along this path, we are gradually reaping the rewards that the Xiao Bai once possessed but couldn't hold onto.
It's not plunder, it's inheritance.
He will carry them with him, step by step.
In the darkness of night, Bai Yuan fell into a deep sleep.
The Cat Ear Coin was still held in my palm, quietly radiating a soft light.
