As soon as Anderson finished speaking, Hai Cheng who was continually attacking the force field with Celestial Gaze yelped as if he was cut by a sharp knife.

At the same time, behind him, Mo Xing who was replenishing Hai Cheng’s energy had an incredulous look on his face. He touched his head as some of his hair fell off and a scar appeared where they fell.

After a while, he muttered, “Luckily I’m quite a bit shorter than Brother Hai…”

Hai Lan’s face showed shock, “I had four layers of protection on there, not even those layers can protect him?”

Ding Xiang had already started healing Hai Cheng.

***************

In the hall, Anderson sounded a little disappointed.

“I can’t kill two birds with one stone? As expected, after a certain distance, the Spiritual Slash would simply fade so fast. There are too little eggs in this basket, I should be able to kill them all with Zheng Dao here.”

“Looks like I’m destined to fail this time. There’s a Chinese saying, ‘The path of kingship is to depend on yourself,’ one cannot attain the best techniques by stealing. I wasn’t able to steal the full thing, but at least I know the basics, that’s enough for me. However, none of those who ever opposed me could leave unharmed.”

Fang Ning heard their monologue and instinctively felt danger.

He had cultivated the Dragonization Ability, as well as True Bodhi Tactics, both being the perfect version of each ability after being theorized by the System. He was no longer the newbie combatant he once was and could sense danger to a certain degree.

[System Notification: The System consumed all of the remaining Morality Bar and Aggro Bar to support Dragonization Ability. The current level of Dragonization Ability is Intermediate Level, Dragon Transformation stage advances into Fusion of Twin Dragon stage.]

[The System activated the Wind Dragon form, fusing Wind Dragon and Fire Dragon, the Host’s physical strength is increasing drastically.]

Fang Ning was stunned, “The System was forced to this extent…”

A greenish light flashed across the fire dragon, and the head of a green dragon appeared. Not only that, interlaced between the fiery red scales were green ones, indicating the rise of its defense.

In the time that the fire dragon was transforming, the people laying inside of the glass caskets started opening their eyes all at once, followed by blood leaking out of all their orifices as they struggled, and everything returned to silence.

Fang Ning was spooked out, ‘They all died at once, that’s the horrifying thing about being in this era. It’s like a sea that looks calm, but might one day be plagued by giant waves, all those who were not able to board a ship before the waves hit, the ones who could only find a boat, or those who were just swimming in the water, will be buried in the depth of the sea…’

‘Luckily, my ship has a good keel, and this ship could even upgrade itself.’

Fang Ning was deep in his thoughts when the black force field disappeared.

A spirit appeared above the body of a Caucasian man. It looked identical to the dead man.

This spirit was far stronger than Fang Ning’s white dragon form. Fang Ning could feel its aura even through the lens of System View.

Anderson moaned, “I can only maintain half an hour. Oh, shouldn’t have said that. Ah well, it doesn’t matter anyway, you’re dying. Come, True Dragon Vigilante A, let us fight till one of us die!”

Before he even finished, a light flashed and he slammed against the torso of the twin dragon, entering it!

Fang Ning was aghast seeing it through the System View. He had, many a time, seen Sir System do this trick with the fire dragon or with the dragon-shaped vital energy that ended with the opponent being blasted to pieces!

‘Is it finally my time?’

Fang Ning started to regret his laziness. If only he would be more hardworking, more diligent in cultivating, study hard, strive for the best, waking up at 4.30 a.m., asleep by 11 p.m. …

It might not be helpful in this case…

This enemy that Sir System encountered would even kill Qiao Zishan in a split second, so even if he worked hard for five months, he would be of no use, if he went out recklessly and was killed, the System would die as well, then he would be the Leeroy Jenkins of his contemporary…

So he would do better if he focused on the tactics and help Sir System advance its strength.

‘If Sir System could endure this round, I promise to develop a whole plan for Sir System’s advancement and stop Sir System from the trouble of thrashing about to find its way…’

Time passed as slowly as ever…

Fang Ning waited anxiously about the battle inside the body. System View could not see through the body, and he had yet to learn to look inside himself. Whatever was happening inside, he had no idea.

He would not simply open his mouth at this stage, he did not want to distract Sir System and become the last straw that broke the camel’s back.

Left without anything else to do, he used System View to look around. If anything else happens, it might be up to the Venerable White Dragon to save the day.

About five minutes later, he saw Qiao Zishan entered the hall cautiously and slightly let his guard down. At least this bunch would not turn on him.

Qiao Zishan saw the fire-wind twin dragon immediately, but the twin dragon was just frozen in the air, unmoving.

“What’s the situation here?”

Qiao Zishan asked Hai Cheng.

Hai Cheng had one hand pressed on his forehead. After Ding Xiang’s healing, he managed to recover enough to function.

He said, “Let me have a look.”

Hai Lan, his elder sister, asked him, “You were hurt, can you do it?”

Hai Cheng was calm, he responded, “Don’t worry, my Celestial Gaze is not so fragile.”

As he was speaking, he unleashed his blood-red eye on his forehead.

A drop of blood crept down his nose, as if splitting his face into two halves.

A blue light shone from the eye toward the twin dragon.

Hai Cheng was confused as he assessed the situation, “There’s a terrifying spirit inside Dragon God’s torso, as if looking for something to kill. That spirit is wicked, definitely not the Dragon God’s own spirit.”

Qiao Zijiang asked when she heard that, “Is he in danger? Is the spirit the one who hurt you back there?”

Hai Cheng shook his head, “There’s no danger, so to speak. The spirit was sealed inside the Dragon God’s body, it wouldn’t be able to escape. However, the Dragon God’s spirit was nowhere to be found, it could be the reason he couldn’t move.”

Fang Ning listened to Hai Cheng’s analysis and relaxed a little. At this point, he could only listen to the experts. Hopefully this expert really knew his stuff.

Qiao Zishan and the others started to guard the twin dragon to prevent a sneak attack from around them.

***************

In the other room, Elder Ancestor Bai who watched the whole scene through the screen was grinning.

Elder Ancestor Bai said, “That should be Anderson’s trump card. The battle of spirits, it’s like you have predicted, Shixin. Vigilante A will win, but he would be heavily injured and need several years to recover.”

Bai Shixin said, “Thank you, Elder Ancestor, only us who descended into humans’ bodies would understand the dangers of these battle of spirits. With both spirits fighting for the control of a body, it would be understandable if both would sustain heavy damage. Unless the winner is much stronger, they would also be injured.”

“As strong as Vigilante A’s spirit is, he’s at most slightly stronger than Anderson who had been fortified by dozens of Psions, so he would most definitely be hurt pretty badly. Spiritual injuries like this are incurable and can only be healed over a long time. After a few years, when our clan had been deeply rooted, he will no longer be a threat, but we don’t have to take that risk now.”

Elder Ancestor Bai said, “Shixin, you’ve really matured.

Moments after, they saw something change on the screen. Immediately, they shared a glance and laughed loudly…

***************

Fang Ning waited in silence for half an hour before he was greeted with system notifications.

[Anderson’s spirit was getting ready to fight the Host’s spirit.]

[Anderson could not find a target.]

[Anderson is locating target…]

[Anderson is locating target…]

[Anderson is confused…]

[Anderson is preparing to retreat, the System initiated a lockdown.]

[Anderson’s retreat failed, Anderson is breaking down…]

[Anderson’s spirit is lashing out at the Host’s body…]

[The Host’s body was injured, the System is healing…]

[The Host’s injury was healed.]

The process repeated several times…

[Anderson’s spirit faltered dramatically…]

[The System caught Anderson’s spirit and threw it into the System Jail.]

[The Host was heavily injured…]

At this point, everyone was startled when the twin dragon fell from mid-air, becoming Vigilante A, and immediately spat blood!

Ding Xiang immediately started to heal, but her healing did almost nothing to Vigilante A.

Fang Ning saw it from the System View, this was the first time ever that the System coughed blood!

He was really upset and sobbingly said, “It’s all my fault, I’m too lazy. I didn’t start working on the System Advancement Plan sooner, or this wouldn’t have happened. Sir System, are you alright?”

The System said, “I’m fine, your body is not…”

Fang Ning was speechless at the revelation, he felt he wasted his emotional moment, “Fine, I forgot that’s my body I’m supposed to be worrying… That injury, how should I treat it?”

The System said, “Have some medication.”

Fang Ning said, “Alright, next time be careful handling the car, don’t be so reckless.”

The System said, “Don’t worry about my driving skills. If it isn’t for the spirit of Anderson charging in, I won’t be able to catch them at all. But since I caught them, it’s really good for you and me, you’d know soon. Now, turn in the Mission 2, I’ll give you some new missions.”

That caught Fang Ning by surprise, “He’s the strongest creature in the current realm?”

The System explained, “That’s right. You wouldn’t be able to tell how strong their last attack is just by the notifications. Anyone would know battles of spirits are risky. Even Bodhisattva Spirit King might be killed by them in the scenario just now. At the moment, no one would be able to resist their attack.”

Fang Ning was immediately relieved, “Thank goodness you’re not a creature, Sir System. Also after being taken over by you, my spirit had been staying in the System Space most of the time, and I diligently hid inside when there’s a battle. If I’d stayed inside my brain, we might be finished this time.”

The System said, “That’s right. Host, you’ve done well this time. Thanks to your timidity, you’ve developed the good habit of hiding inside the System Space. Their speed was so fast that no humans could react in time to that. If it caught you, both of us would be finished at once. What reward do you want this time?”

Fang Ning shook his head, “I don’t need any reward. Having seen so many dead people, I realized, the best reward in this era of vitality restoration was to stay inside the System Space.”

The System, “???”

A moment passed, the System said, “Are you invaded by Anderson’s residual spirit? This is not like you, I have to examine you thoroughly…”

Before Fang Ning could protest, system notifications rang in his ears.

[The System started examining the Host’s spirit.]

[The System is examining the Host’s spirit…]

[The System realized the Host’s spirit is currently in ” Kenja Mode 1 “.]

[The System judged everything was fine and ended the examination.]

Fang Ning could not muster his strength to complain, “Thank you for your concern.”
