Chapter 287: 382 Chapter: Speed Up the Progress of the Experiment_1

As Fang Ren's consciousness returned to his body in the hotel, the grey cylindrical barrier around Xiao Qianye was withdrawn back into the halo above its head.
Fang Ren sat on the bed, holding the newly acquired Rebirth Fruit in his hand, his face unable to convey any joy. What he needed now was formidable strength, not just thinking about how to save his own life.
"Could it be that I've walked into too much luck?" Fang Ren sighed.
Xiao Qianye shook its head and said, "Master, picking it was inevitable. Heh-ha."
Fang Ren remained dejected, although he agreed with what Xiao Qianye said; the problem at hand involved tens of thousands of Void Beasts! Once they burst out of the Void, the whole Tianjiang would be doomed!
And with this ability, he would only be able to save himself, but completely unable to help Mu Huanqing.
"Forget it, having one more ability is always good."
Fang Ren tried to level his mood and directly popped the red fruit into his mouth, swallowing it. In an instant, his body was covered in red lines, looking as if it was about to split open.
The immense pain that came from his body was, to him, completely trivial.
Boom—
Soon, a drop of blood-colored crystal flew out from the top of his head, falling into his hand. Shortly afterward, his body reverted to its original appearance.
The process was that simple. Fang Ren looked at the blood-colored crystal in his hand, utterly bewildered: "This thing is my second life? Where should I put it? Wasn't it said that it could be stored in another space?"
Xiao Qianye spoke, "Master, just put it anywhere, heh-ha."
Half-understanding, Fang Ren raised his arm and placed the blood-colored crystal in mid-air. As soon as the crystal left his hand, it did not drop to the ground but floated there, the air around it gradually dispersing.
Before long, wisps of black aura began to swirl around it.
Seeing this, Xiao Qianye said, "Master, you can comprehend the Space Law here, heh-ha."
Fang Ren came to a realization, suddenly remembering that there was a sentence in the fruit's description mentioning that the essence blood was stored in another space; that is to say, this droplet of essence blood was now carving out its own space.
This truly was a process where one could witness how space was created.
Fang Ren focused his attention on the small droplet as it gathered black aura continuously. The black aura quickly grew more intense, completely displacing the surrounding air.
To be precise, not just the air was being pushed aside, but also the Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth, as well as any impure energies.
In the end, the black aura turned into a very small black vortex, and the blood-colored crystal slowly entered into the vortex. After the blood-colored crystal had completely entered the vortex, the black vortex began to close, and the surrounding air and Spiritual Energy gradually converged back.
Hum—
The black vortex sealed completely and vanished from the space in an instant. Fang Ren could no longer feel its presence, as if nothing had changed around him.
"Master, have you comprehended anything? Heh-ha," Xiao Qianye asked.
Fang Ren looked at Xiao Qianye, utterly baffled, "Understand what, exactly? In just a few short minutes, what do you expect me to comprehend?"
After hearing this, Xiao Qianye propped its round arm against its forehead, a look of exasperation on its face as it said, "Master, your talent is extremely poor; cultivation relies entirely on cheating. Heh-ha."
"Heh?"
```
Fang Ren immediately wanted to retort upon hearing this, but before he could speak, he suddenly recognized a fact—that ever since he began cultivation, he had indeed been relying on the advantage of his Spirit Form.
"Cough cough, but isn't that advantage also a kind of ability of mine?" Fang Ren's face turned red.
"Yes, but the master's talent is still lacking, hehe." Little Qianye said.
"So what? If I can solve problems by taking advantage of my abilities, why bother using my brain? Moreover, in the field of alchemy, I rely entirely on my own comprehension and have never taken any shortcuts." Fang Ren said.
Little Qianye looked helpless; it was not implying that Fang Ren was lacking in all areas, just in the aspect of comprehensibility.
Regarding the scene just now, even a regular person would gain a bit of insight into the Void after witnessing it, such as the need for a special kind of black energy to open up space. Without this energy, it's impossible to create a space.
Yet the master flippantly said, "Comprehend my ass," which made it very curious. Clearly, this was the comprehension of spatial abilities, so how did he end up comprehending it as useless?
The direction of the master's comprehension... it could not understand.

In the big backyard of the Bai Family, Bai Chaojin sat in the pavilion with a worried look on his face, while outside the pavilion stood two soldiers reporting on the security situation in Tianjiang.
However, Bai Chaojin was not at all concerned about whether there were remnants of the Nightfall in Tianjiang—what he cared about was that he had miscalculated so many things tonight. He had thought that the ominous signs he saw in the astrological predictions were the result of something Fang Ren and Mu Huanqing would do tonight, but it turned out that the bad omen came from Jiang Ling.
What shocked him even more tonight was that Jiang Ling, whom he had not taken very seriously, had actually broken through that legendary realm!
He could not understand how Jiang Ling, with all her talent, managed to surpass only a few middle-aged core members of the Tianjiang Great Family in terms of ability. At her age, she should at most have been able to break through to the peak of the Xuanyang realm.
Moreover, compared to Mu Huanqing, it was obvious that Mu Huanqing had much higher talent, and yet, supposing both of them reached the peak of the Xuanyang realm at the same time, logically, Mu Huanqing should have been the first to break through to the Solar Realm, so how could it be Jiang Ling?
What he found even more incomprehensible was that Mu Huanqing, who possessed a higher talent, had reached the peak of the Xuanyang realm first, so how could Jiang Ling have advanced so much faster than Mu Huanqing?
And as far as he knew, Jiang Ling was still a mid-stage practitioner of the Xuanyang realm when in Linglong Bay, which was only about half a month ago. How could she have crossed two major elite realms in just half a month?
"Has Jiang Ling... stumbled upon some incredible fortune?"
After pondering for a long time with furrowed brows, Bai Chaojin's attention completely shifted from Fang Ren and Mu Huanqing. The greater threat to Indra Sky now seemed to be Jiang Ling.
"Could it be!"
Suddenly, Bai Chaojin thought of something and was shocked.
"During the battle at Linglong Bay, Jiang Ling seized all the data from that laboratory... Did she make use of some methods from the lab!?"
Bai Chaojin was extremely excited internally. Since Jiang Ling had become so powerful due to the research results of Indra Sky, did that mean they could completely disregard the data from the Fifth-order Void Beast and still succeed directly?
Snap—
In his excitement, Bai Chaojin slapped the pavilion and stood up, addressing the two soldiers in front of him, "Quick! Bring Qi'er back!"
If Jiang Ling, who lacked experimental data, could acquire such formidable power, then why was Bai Qi about to undergo an experiment?
Wouldn't that mean the experiment had a 100% success rate, and that Bai Qi would obtain even stronger abilities than Jiang Ling!?
