Ning Yuantai was too lazy to reply to him and walked to Xue Jing in silence.
Xue Jing was looking at the surroundings curiously. Seeing Ning Yuantai approaching with a somewhat dejected look, he said:
"Yuantae, what's wrong?"
Ning Yuantai scratched his head and said, "Nothing, Brother Xue."
Xue Jing smiled and said casually, "You feel that the ideas you have been adhering to are not flawless and you cannot convince others. Are you depressed?"
Ning Yuantai was surprised and asked, "Brother Xue, did you hear everything?"
Xue Jing stepped forward and said casually: "You guys are talking so loudly that I can hear you clearly even if the distance is ten times farther."
Ning Yuantai caught up with Xue Jing, half a body behind him, and whispered: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you..."
After walking in silence for a while, Ning Yuantai couldn't help but say:
"Brother Xue, don't you have anything to say..."
Xue Jing tilted his head to look at him and said teasingly:
"Do you want me to support you and scold aristocrats like Xu Mude so as to give your current erratic thoughts a shot of adrenaline?"
Ning Yuantai smiled awkwardly but did not deny it.
"I'm sorry, Yuan Tai, although I should be one of the people you call 'self-made', but I can't say 'you are right' with confidence."
Xue Jing came to a high-tech device that looked like a computer host and stood in front of it, saying without turning his head:
“There is no right or wrong in thought itself… This is just something that humans have concluded arbitrarily based on their own limited standards. There is no absolutely correct thought in the world, only thoughts that are relatively in line with one’s own interests.”
Ning Yuantai was a little disappointed: "Brother Xue..."
Xue Jing paused and said, "But... I think your idea is valuable."
"Although it's childish thinking like a child, you can empathize with people from poor backgrounds when you have a privileged background. This may not necessarily be a good thing for you, but it is a valuable idea."
“Be able to abandon your own interests and think about the interests of others, even if the thinking is childish and trivial. Perhaps in the future when your thoughts are fully formed, you will laugh at and despise your own stupidity and ignorance at this moment.”
Xue Jing paused and smiled, "But at least at this moment, I think you are great, much better than the so-called nobles who are content to enjoy their birth."
Ning Yuantai's eyes filled with tears when he heard this: "Brother Xue..."
…
Skyscraper Center, 1052nd floor.
"This is one of the shelters of Xu's Biology and Xu's Shelter."
In the long white corridor, transparent compartments of various sizes crisscrossed each other. A mature woman wearing an OL short skirt and delicate makeup stretched out her hand and introduced with a smile.
She looked at Xue Jing who was looking around, and her gaze could not help but linger on that too captivating face, and she sighed secretly.
What a handsome boy, sister, I can really...
Xue Jing looked towards the transparent compartment next to him. Under the light, there was a white booth in the center, and on the booth was a... dried salted fish
It was about one meter long, with a shriveled and weathered white body and a pair of dead fish eyes that were wide open. Except for the fact that its body was abnormally straight and a bit strange, it looked exactly like an ordinary salted fish.
"This is [GOD-1468: Salted Fish Sword]."
Seeing Xue Jing's gaze, the OL woman immediately chuckled and introduced softly.
"Don't be fooled by its funny appearance. It is actually extremely sharp and hard. It is a very powerful weapon. Those who have used it say it is good... But the side effect is that it will make the user smell fishy."
Xue Jing withdrew his gaze from the Salted Fish Sword and looked around.
There are dozens of transparent compartments like this one on this floor...
He felt like a mouse entering a rice jar, and his fingers began to move uncontrollably.
After thinking for a while, Xue Jing smiled at the office lady and said softly, "Can I touch these divine relics?"
The OL woman was almost dizzy by this smile. She was stunned for a moment before she said with embarrassment:
"this… "
Ning Yuantai, who was standing next to him, said, "The divine relic is not a rare thing. It's just a touch. What's the big deal? I will talk to Xu Mude about it later. I won't make it difficult for you."
The office lady laughed and said, "But... many of the divine relics are completely sealed, without even an entrance or exit. You can't get in or out, and you can't touch them..."
Ning Yuantai glared at her and said, "Since you said 'many' and not 'all', then there must be some that are not completely closed, right?"
The office lady's forehead was covered with sweat: "That's right..."
"What are you waiting for? Take us there!" Ning Yuantai said unhappily.
The office lady thought nervously, this person is the friend that Mr. Xu said he should treat well, so if he just touched her, it shouldn’t be a big deal…
She walked to the transparent compartment where the Salted Fish Sword was placed, and reached out to press a few keys on the computer-like numeric keypad on the wall.
The transparent compartment suddenly opened with a hissing sound, and one side of it became a transparent door, slowly opening to both sides.
A fishy smell surged out from it. The office lady quickly covered her nose, her face wrinkled from the smell, and said in a muffled voice:
"This is one of the divine relics that is not fully enclosed..."
"Damn, this smell." Ning Yuantai also covered his nose, looking unbearable.
Xue Jing held his breath at the beginning and his face looked normal. But Mao Mao, as a cat, covered his nose with his two front paws. His eyes were filled with tears and he looked like he was about to faint.
Xue Jing stepped in and put his hand on the sword of salted fish.
[Divine matter detected, absorbing divinity... ]
He was like a researcher who was very curious about divine relics. He kept touching the Sword of Dried Salted Fish and pretending to be very interested.
Dozens of seconds later.
[Divine power absorption completed]
[Possessing Divinity: 4299]
After gaining nearly 500 points of divinity, Xue Jing turned around and walked out of the transparent compartment without saying a word.
"It's my dream to touch all the relics... Let's go on. If there's a relic that's not fully enclosed, please let me know..."
Xue Jing said to the OL woman.
Seeing that he was really just touching her, the office lady breathed a sigh of relief and gave Xue Jing a perfect smile: "Yes."
…
Xue Jing followed the OL guide, strolling around and listening to the introduction of the divine relics while quietly starting his spiritual visualization, radiating out and engraving everything around him into his mind. He could clearly detect where the guards, cameras, infrared detectors and other alarm devices were.
After touring the entire floor, there were dozens of compartments for divine relics, four of which were not fully enclosed. Xue Jing went in and touched all of them. Together with the Salted Fish Sword he got at the beginning, he obtained a total of 2027 points of divinity.
[Possessing Divinity: 5829]
Looking at the more than five thousand divinities on the panel, Xue Jing suppressed his somewhat agitated mood, and showed a look of satisfaction with his hobby with excellent acting skills, and smiled:
"It's really worth the trip. Thank you, sister... But your company is so big, don't you have any relics with serial numbers within the first 300?"
Seeing Xue Jing happy, the OL woman also felt happy for some reason. She shook her head and smiled when she heard the words:
"I'm not sure about that... But our company is on the 1097th and 1098th floors of the skyscraper, and no one is allowed to enter. If it's something very precious, I guess..."
Having said this, she realized that she seemed to have said too much, so she quickly stopped talking and smiled awkwardly.
Xue Jing did not show any strangeness, but said with emotion: "Hey, I really want to see it if I have the chance."
Ning Yuantai glanced at his bracelet and reminded in a low voice: "Brother Xue, it's almost time."
Hearing this, Xue Jing smiled at the office lady and said, "I am sorry to bother you today, dear sister. Thank you for your guidance. We will leave now."
The OL woman heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this, but at the same time she felt a little reluctant: "I am also very happy to introduce the divine relics to you two."
…
The aircraft, which looked like a large piece of bread, slowly floated away from the center of the skyscraper and headed towards Yuancheng.
In the cabin, Ning Yuantai asked Xue Jing expectantly, "How is it, Brother Xue? Although the time is a bit tight, you should be satisfied, right?"
Xue Jing was patting the cat's back. Ever since she smelled the Salted Fish Sword, she had been sneezing from time to time.
"sneeze!"
The cat wiped the tears from the corners of its eyes with its front paws, looking listless.
Xue Jing nodded and said with a smile: "I am very happy to see so many divine relics at once. Thank you very much, Yuantai."
Ning Yuantai touched his nose and said happily: "Glad that I can help you, hehe."
After chatting all the way for three or four hours, Xue Jing returned to the Yuancheng Zhige Base.
When they arrived at the place, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Xue Jing kept Ning Yuantai and made a special meal for him, which almost made Ning Yuantai die of overeating.
This time Maomao had no objection to this, after all, Ning Yuantai had just helped Xue Jing.
After everything was settled, Ning Yuantai said goodbye and left. Xue Jing sat cross-legged on the sofa in the living room, his eyes deep in thought.
"The Xu family's defense force is very strong... I have detected at least seven dangerous beings through my mental visualization, and there are also various AI automatic weapons with amazing lethality. It is impossible to rob them by force."
"But fortunately, we have discovered the possible location of [The Original Wind of All Things], the 1097th or 1098th floor..."
"We need to come up with a more reliable and foolproof plan..."
Thoughts kept jumping around in Xue Jing's mind.
"We need an alibi, and we also need to practice the infiltration and escape routes... It seems that it will be difficult to complete them in the three days of rest. This matter will have to be postponed for a while."
He said to himself.
"To forge iron, you must be strong yourself. Let's upgrade first."
Xue Jing opened the panel, looked at the number of divinities that had exceeded five thousand, and rubbed his hands in a somewhat ungraceful manner.
…
Chapter 244 Shadow Flame Deep Development, True Overlord Color, Xue Jing VS Zhou Yinglin! (4K)
[Possessing Divinity: 5829]
Xue Jing made a decision after a little thought.
"Well, if it's 5,800..."
His eyes turned to [Shadow Flame] in the divine skill column.
"It takes 4,500 Divine Power to upgrade Shadow Flame to Lv9. After the upgrade, there will be more than 1,000 left, just enough for the [Military Strike] that may be upgraded at any time..."
[Shadow Flame Lv8 (5829/4500)]
Xue Jing clicks to upgrade.
[Shadow Flame Lv9 (1329/6000)]
Seeing the divinity required to upgrade to Lv9, Xue Jing nodded.
"As expected, I need 6,000 to reach Lv10... plus the 2,000 needed to activate the divine incarnation, so I still need 8,000 in total."
"It's almost there. We will soon be able to see the first 'incarnation' of a divine skill."
Xue Jing clenched his fists, a little excited.
Along the way, his divine skills have helped him tremendously... Even now, the proportion of his combat power made up of divine skills still exceeds that of martial arts.
Especially in terms of applicability, no matter how powerful the old weapons are, their framework is basically limited to pure physical attacks and is not as flexible and changeable as divine skills.
Of course, martial arts also have advantages that divine skills do not have. The two complement each other and together build Xue Jing's combat power system.
The power of divine skills is unquestionable. All divine skills violate the laws of reality to some extent and reach the realm of "superpowers" and "supernormality".
Xue Jing was looking forward to how powerful this powerful skill would be, as it required a high level of Lv10 and required additional divinity to activate the 'divine incarnation'.
"Let's try to see what changes the Lv9 Shadow Flame has."
Xue Jing closed the skill panel, raised his right hand, spread out his palm, and with a thought, countless black air currents surged from the shadows illuminated by the lights in the room and gathered towards his palm.
"call-"
A ball of black flame ignited and danced quietly in his palm. It was a pure black without any luster, like a black hole, and there was even a faint illusion that it was swallowing up the surrounding light.
Xue Jing swung his hand and threw the ball of black flame in his hand out of the window.
