Chapter 71: Magnetic Sword

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Dragon Roar?”

Wang Che was stunned.

He subconsciously looked up and saw nothing.

The endless roaring continued.

Wang Che frowned slightly as he thought of the possibility.

Could it be that some soul beast had been awakened?

That’s not right. The energy earlier did not explode. Logically speaking, it should not have awakened any powerful soul beasts.

While he was puzzled, a light sword sped over from afar and arrived beside Wang Che.

“Magnetic Sword? A mechanical-type soul pet!”

Wang Che was surprised.

This was a rarely seen soul pet.

As long as it was related to the mechanical-type, it was rare.

Magnetic Sword was a rare mechanical-type soul pet. The reason was very mysterious. There was no related information in Wang Che’s knowledge.

“Kid, are you alright?” A deep voice came from the Magnetic Sword.

“You are?”

“I’m Li Yanming, a professional Contract Soul Master with you. I’m using a soul pet voice transmission to communicate with you. Are you safe now?” Li Yanming asked.

“I’m safe.”

“That’s good. You might be very confused now. You don’t know what happened.”

Li Yanming immediately said, “It’s okay. Don’t worry about anything else. Meet up with me first and leave together.”

“The situation is urgent. There’s no time to explain. Get on the Magnetic Sword!”

“Sure.”

Wang Che thought about it and roughly knew who this Li Yanming was.

It was the blind old man.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Magnetic Sword flew over unwillingly.

How could a weakling like Wang Che stand on top of it?

However, due to the order, it still landed steadily beside Wang Che.

“It feels like a flying sword.”

Wang Che sighed inwardly. Looking at this light sword, it was as if he had returned to the time when he was at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment realm.

Then, hugging the green caterpillar, he kicked off with one leg and leaped lightly. His sleeves fluttered as he landed on the light sword in an extremely graceful manner.

He looked very handsome.

The moment Wang Che landed on the Magnetic Sword, it suddenly felt a subtle sense of pride.

Magnetic Sword: “…”

‘Sigh… After so many years, the posture of me boarding the flying sword seems to have been engraved into the depths of my soul.’

Wang Che missed it very much. He slowly said, “Let’s go.”

The Magnetic Sword subconsciously moved and flew out as if it had received an order.

Magnetic Sword: “???”

‘What’s wrong with me?’

‘Why am I listening to this young man?’

This was illogical!

The Magnetic Sword gradually felt that something was wrong. It sped up and roared.

However, Wang Che, who was above it, did not move at all.

Magnetic Sword: “…”

There was something wrong with this young man!

Before long, the Magnetic Sword brought Wang Che to Li Yanming.

At this moment, Li Yanming was flying in the air. The two special light wings on his back swayed slightly, looking extremely cool.

His aura was majestic and his killing intent was overwhelming. Clearly, he had experienced a huge battle.

As if sensing the Magnetic Sword, Li Yanming immediately turned around.

What he saw stunned him.

In the distance, a graceful youth stood on a light sword with his hands behind his back as he flew over.

It was full of emotions.

“This kid… Why does he give me the feeling of a peerless expert…”

Li Yanming was stunned and pondered for a few seconds, “Perhaps, it’s all because of that handsome appearance.”

“However, from the looks of it, this brat does have 30% of my aura back then.” Li Yanming nodded.

The only thing that ruined the aesthetic was probably the green caterpillar that wrapped around Wang Che’s feet.

It was probably because it flew too high and was afraid of the air.

At this moment, as the Magnetic Sword approached, Wang Che also saw Li Yanming, so he immediately waved his hand and said,

“Slow down and stop.”

The Magnetic Sword subconsciously slowed down and stopped.

Magnetic Sword: “???”

Li Yanming: “???”

Li Yanming looked at the Magnetic Sword with a strange expression.

‘Good fellow, is this my soul pet or this brat’s?’

So obedient?

It had only been a few hours and you were already tamed?

This kid was so popular with soul pets?

Li Yanming seemed to have recalled some bad memories when he tamed the Magnetic Sword not long ago…

“Not bad. It looks like you didn’t suffer any injuries.” Li Yanming coughed and his gaze landed on the green caterpillar, “Huh? This little thing seems to have become somewhat extraordinary. Its cultivation level increased by so much?”

Wang Che had used the Marrow Cleansing Paste to remove the excess impurities in the green caterpillar’s body. Its soul power cultivation had increased by another hundred years.

Just from the outside, its skin was shiny and naturally not ordinary.

“Luck, luck,” Wang Che said. “Oh right, Officer Li, what was that cry just now? Did some soul beast wake up?”

“Huh?” Li Yanming was stunned and looked at Wang Che sharply.

What? Did this kid know about the Sky God Dragon?

“When I was caught, I roughly guessed what those terrorists wanted to do,” Wang Che said.

“You guessed it?” Li Yanming frowned slightly, “Tell me in detail.”

Wang Che explained briefly from the time he missed the communication device’s message because of his cultivation.

However, he concealed the matter of the ancient soul device, he claimed to have destroyed the Soul Guiding Diagram instead.

Nothing else changed.

After hearing that, Li Yanming sucked in a cold breath.

Through the short message on the communication device, he immediately analyzed the situation and saw through the Ghost Disciple’s disguise. At the same time, he boldly pretended to follow and saw through the disguise. In the end, he used the Ghost Disciple to delay time and slowly destroy the Soul Guiding Diagram to resolve their scheme.

Even when Li Yanming was young, he was not this impressive.

This sounded very easy, but when one was involved, they could not panic at all. By grasping the other party’s weakness, he had even destroyed the Soul Guiding Diagram…

Only movies would dare to make up stories like that.

“It’s a little unbelievable.” Li Yanming felt that during this process, the only question was whether this boy… knew the Soul Guiding Diagram very well.

The Soul Guiding Diagram could not be destroyed just like that.

It was not a simple Soul Guiding Diagram.

“Actually, I don’t have that Life Origin Stone on me,” Wang Che said. “That’s why I could destroy the Soul Guiding Diagram. It didn’t even activate.”

“The Rainbow Deer King did not give me the Life Origin Stone. It only gave a portion of its energy to the green caterpillar.”

Li Yanming nodded slightly, but he felt that this kid was hiding something.

Although he did not understand the Soul Guiding Diagram, he knew that the final scene had four life forces surging towards that location at the same time.

It was definitely not simple.

“Alright, kid, I know that you have a secret. I can sense it from the green caterpillar you nurtured. It’s just that who doesn’t have a secret on them?” Li Yanming waved his hand and said, “That Soul Guiding Diagram was definitely not as simple as being destroyed. I admire you, kid, but I’m not interested in digging out your secrets.”

Seeing this, Wang Che smiled.

He knew that it was impossible to hide this matter.

On the floating soil of the Floating Forest, there were traces of the Soul Guiding Diagram. Just as Wang Che was about to destroy it and leave, the Magnetic Sword flew over and saw everything. Once he investigated, it was easy to discover the problem.

Most importantly, there was a problem with the gathering of the four energies.

Anyone who had studied the Soul Guiding Diagram could tell that this was not simple.

However, only Li Yanming saw it.

Oh, there was also Xue Batian.

“You should have said so earlier.” Wang Che casually said, “Then I won’t pretend anymore. Actually, I modified the Soul Guiding Diagram and gathered the four energies here. I sealed them in an ancient soul device.”

“Hahaha… Get lost. What you said is even more unbelievable than the previous one.” Li Yanming laughed loudly a few times, “You’ve never touched the Soul Guiding Diagram before. Not to mention modifying it, even cracking it is impossible.”

“Then you might not know what a genius is,” Wang Che said.

This serious tone made Li Yanming’s heart feel like it had been shot by an arrow.

“Are you serious?” Li Yanming looked at Wang Che and sized him up, “You could crack the modification after seeing the Soul Guiding Diagram for the first time?”

If it was true.

This might be… a genius…

“What else?” Wang Che nodded, “Of course, it requires a little luck.”

He would not lie about this. Even if he was a genius when he first learned array formations back then…

What was a genius?

Geniuses were born knowledgeable. They could learn it at a glance and fly as soon as they learned it. They could draw inferences from it…

Li Yanming knew what a genius was.

There had been such examples in the history of the seven war zones of the Federation.

He rubbed his temples and pointed at Wang Che, “Don’t tell anyone about this. By the way, who was there? There should be a Ghost Disciple, right?”

“He was very smart and slipped away very quickly. After I saw through him, he didn’t attack. He quickly escaped.”

“He’s also a talent.” Li Yanming rubbed his temples again.

“Oh right, Officer Li, you haven’t told me about that soul beast?” Wang Che looked at the sky and vaguely felt an invisible pressure.

“That’s a secret. You can’t know for the time being,” Li Yanming said, “But your deduction is basically correct. Those Ghost Disciples planned to awaken powerful soul beasts to cause chaos.”

Seeing that Li Yanming did not say anything, there must be a special rule from the higher-ups.

Wang Che did not ask further.
