Chapter 220: Chapter 226: Indra Sky's Action_1
Central Area, this is a large island on the Tianjiang Coast, with buildings all in white. At the top of a huge building in the center of the island, there even stands a colorful flag, symbolizing the world of humans.
At this moment, within this massive white structure, Bai Chaojin, dressed in a white military uniform, walked along a heavily guarded white corridor, accompanied by a middle-aged man.
"So Fang Ren really has such talent?" Bai Chaojin asked with a subtle smile on his face, addressing the man beside him.
"Commander! It is absolutely true. Just three hours ago, Old Chen the butler called and said that Fang Ren has now been confirmed to possess the strength of the Early Stage of Xianyun Realm!" reported the man with a grave expression.
The smile on Bai Chaojin's face grew richer, "To break through ten minor realms in such a short period, not even Mu Huanqing back in the day could compare to him. However, I heard just a few days ago that he also shone brilliantly at the Alchemy Conference, refining a fourth-order upper level pill in fifteen minutes, which could indeed be considered an unparalleled genius."
"Fang Ren, no one is more deserving of the word 'unparalleled' than him!" the man exclaimed, "His cultivation level and alchemy talents are peerless in this world. Even if there is a future talent who surpasses him in one aspect, they would still fall short in another."
Listening to the man's sigh, the smile on Bai Chaojin's face took on a peculiar flavor, "I am quite curious. Since he has such an extraordinary talent in alchemy, what kind of reason made him hide himself for twenty-two years without showing the slightest hint during his youth? It must have a lot to do with the governor of Ninth District."
"Are you referring to... Shang Han?"
"Exactly, Shang Han was crazy enough to reach the heavens when he was young; I wouldn't have expected him to raise Fang Ren to be a person so completely opposite to himself. What could be his intentions?" Bai Chaojin's gaze suddenly sharpened.
Fang Ren is, after all, his Bai Family's son-in-law. It was one thing for Shang Han to allow his daughter to have contact with Fang Ren, but to hide all of his talents, what was he thinking? Could he be making the Bai Family think Fang Ren was inept and thus sever the marriage with him?
Ridiculous! Even if Fang Ren were a useless person, he would still be the only one who could make Bai Qi, an extremely strong Furnace, and as long as he had the ability to procreate, she must pair with him.
Could a mere governor of Ninth District prevent something like this?
Bai Chaojin walked all the way to the elevator, which went down seven levels below ground.
When the elevator stopped and the doors opened, what came into view was a row upon row of high-tech machines and busy personnel coming and going, resembling a large-scale laboratory.
Next to these high-tech machines and workers, there was a whirling group of cold fog, obscuring the view and making it impossible to see the end of the laboratory, with occasional faint trembling sounds emanating from afar.
Upon Bai Chaojin's arrival, a scientist in a white lab coat immediately approached, "Commander, we've encountered a bit of trouble with our research. The severed head is completely out of our control, and recently, there have even been signs of revival."
"Take me to see it," Bai Chaojin said.
Following Bai Chaojin as he pushed through the layers of cold fog, he entered the deepest part of the laboratory.
There, a very large transparent glass pane came into view, and inside the glass, several scientists were recording something against a huge block of ice, and from the outside, it was not difficult to discern a monstrous head of several meters encapsulated within it.
```
Its body was covered in golden scales, shaped like a snake's head, its eyes were open as if filled with the breath of life.
"The Nine-headed Golden Python that escaped from Battlefield One all those years ago? Is it about to reappear now?" Bai Chaojin frowned slightly.
The researcher promptly said, "Commander, all members within our organization agree that the reappearance of the Nine-headed Golden Python may not necessarily be a bad thing. For our current research results, it could actually be a very significant breakthrough opportunity."
"How so?" Bai Chaojin asked.
"The reactions from this head are getting stronger and stronger, which most likely means that the Nine-headed Golden Python will come back to Earth once again. Moreover, based on the pattern of these reactions, it is destined to descend near Tianjiang.
By then, we can deploy heavy troops in Tianjiang in advance, and now that Madame Xuan is also in Tianjiang, even if the Golden Python is a Level Nine Void Beast, we are bound to capture it alive!" the researcher stated.
Upon hearing this, Bai Chaojin's knit brows slowly relaxed, "From what you've said, does it mean the organization has made new technical breakthroughs?"
"Yes, the success with the Fifth-order Void Beast in Linyang City has laid the foundation for many of our technologies. Currently, we can use the technology from that Fifth-order Void Beast to control this snake head. If we can capture the Nine-headed Golden Python alive, we will have great confidence in using this snake head to control a Level Nine Void Beast.
However, before that, we still need the Tiandao Sword Sect to deliver that Fifth-order Void Beast here," the researcher continued.
Speaking up to this point, the researcher suddenly furrowed his brow and sighed, "Actually, our plan could have been advanced by about five days, but that sudden attack by the Nightfall Organization killed many of our core researchers in Linyang City, which is why we still have a slight difficulty that has not been overcome.
However, according to our predictions, everything will be ready before we capture that Level Nine Void Beast."
"Excellent!" Bai Chaojin couldn't help laughing upon hearing the news, "If the trial with the Level Nine Void Beast is successful, does it mean there's also a great chance of success for Qi'er's trial?"
The researcher excitedly said, "Commander! As long as the experiment with the Level Nine Void Beast is successful! I can guarantee there's at least a 95% chance of success for Princess Bai Xi's trial!"
Bai Chaojin suddenly turned around, flinging his military robe, his face breaking into uncontrollable laughter, "Let's go and arrange the troops now! We'll capture the imminent Nine-headed Golden Python!"
A middle-aged man next to him frowned, "But Commander, Princess Bai Xi and Young Master Fang are still at the final competition venue. When the Nine-headed Golden Python descends, it will definitely endanger their lives! Even if the military does its utmost to protect them, that is, after all, a Level Nine Void Beast! Its power is devastating!
Once a great battle starts, there will be many things that we cannot predict!"
Bai Chaojin said, "This matter is naturally within my considerations. On the day the Pill Competition starts, you go and give this to Qi'er, which can remove the dissipating spirit mark from her body."
With that, Bai Chaojin took out a white jade and handed it to the middle-aged man.
"Commander... But Her Highness is currently only at the peak strength of the Yingyue Realm. Even if she regains her strength, it might be difficult for her to emerge unscathed in the battle," he said.
"Yingyue Realm?" Bai Chaojin's sharp gaze carried a trace of a smile: "Do you know why I value Fang Ren so much?"
"Your subordinate does not know."
"The power he possesses can cause Qi'er's Spiritual Root and meridians to evolve at an accelerated rate. Qi'er has done nothing this past month but spend time with him, and in silence, she has broken through to the early stage of the Xuanyang Realm," Bai Chaojin stated, "Tell me, with such a pair defying the heavens, how could I not let them be together?"
