Chapter 240: A True Genius
Mu Qingtong brandished her saber, fighting her way from the underground to the first, and then to the second floor.
It had to be said that this place, which restricted the spiritual pressure of Spirit Masters, actually gave Mu Qingtong a great advantage.
When Mu Qingtong reached the second floor, Xia Feng and Freya were frantically smashing at the door.
Although they didn’t know why Berna had suddenly run into the laboratory and locked the door, it definitely wasn’t for any good reason. He might have been preparing some secret ultimate move.
Xia Feng naturally wasn’t going to give this guy time to power up his ultimate move. With two swift chops, he shattered the tall door, which was made of a special Spirit Material.
“Bang—”
He kicked the door open!
Amidst a haze of smoke and dust, one could faintly see in the laboratory that the lanky man was pressing his hand on a Maine Coon’s forehead, golden light flaring intensely.
Berna keenly perceived that the Maine Coon’s expression seemed somewhat off. Its eyes stared at the visitors with horror, giving him a bad premonition. He quickly absorbed the Enlightenment Mark in his palm!
The S-shaped golden rune flowed into his Mental Sea from his palm, and Berna’s Divine Sense instantly cleared, his thoughts becoming much more active.
This kind of Enlightenment Mark could help the recipient more easily comprehend the corresponding A-class Spirit Robe, and its effect was extremely powerful.
At the same time, the Maine Coon was dazed. Just a moment ago, it had joyfully agreed to give the Enlightenment Mark to this human. The next moment, it sensed an even more prodigious individual!
Its cat pupils trembled as it stared at the black-dressed woman who appeared outside the door, feeling extremely indignant.
Through its spiritual senses, it could perceive that this woman’s talent was definitely higher than Berna’s, though it didn’t know by how much. It was definitely a peerless figure who would be recorded in history!
Yet now, it had missed a great opportunity due to hesitating for just one second.
However, no matter what, since it had already given the Enlightenment Mark, there was no reason to take it back. It was a cat with principles.
Still, its cat pupils looked at the black-dressed woman with great heartache, its eyes filled with a desire akin to a cheating wife, eager to throw itself into the arms of a powerful and mighty super genius.
“This is… A-class Spirit Paper?”
Xia Feng looked at the Maine Coon in the laboratory with some surprise. A rose-gold Spirit Paper was slowly condensing above the Maine Coon’s head. It was very easily identifiable; it was definitely A-class Spirit Paper.
Seeing another black-dressed woman who looked difficult to deal with appear outside the door, Berna narrowed his eyes. Without hesitation, he glanced at the five Obsidian stones embedded in the groove of the high pedestal and then clapped his hands down!
*Swish—*
Just as Xia Feng and the other two instantly moved closer, a light gold pillar of light shot up from the high pedestal, connecting to the laboratory’s silver ceiling.
Waves of light, emitting a multicolored glow, spread out. Everyone within a radius of fifty meters had no time to react before they were covered by the spatial energy contained in the light waves and vanished on the spot.
When the dazzling light in his vision faded, Xia Feng looked around in confusion.
They had arrived on an empty Cloud Platform. The rugged, pitted ground resembled the surface of the moon. Looking up, they saw the lonely, pale blue Eternal Flow Sea, with dim, pale blue halos floating in the space.
And beneath Xia Feng’s feet, he saw a decayed stone tablet buried in the rubble: [White Egret Sea Area – Cloud Platform No. 37].
White Egret Sea? Xia Feng’s heart skipped a beat. Wasn’t this sea area a life forbidden zone?
While surprised, he looked up and around, noticing that a white barrier extending from the ground to the sky appeared every ten meters.
The entire Cloud Platform looked like a chessboard, with the black pitted ground as the base and the white barrier’s light flows as the horizontal and vertical dividing lines.
Xia Feng, Mu Qingtong, Freya, Berna, and Number 104 were scattered into individual grids.
Berna stood not far from Xia Feng. A Maine Coon stood on a rock by his feet, holding a rose-gold Spirit Paper that was floating.
*Boom!!*
Freya swung her saber sideways at the semi-transparent white light screen, but was repelled several steps by the powerful backlash. She clicked her tongue, her expression somewhat displeased, and slashed a few more times, but all were in vain. The light screen barrier surrounding them didn’t budge.
“Stop wasting your efforts, Your Highness.”
The lanky man stood in the distance, hands behind his back, smiling lightly. “This is a natural barrier made of stardust. Without an A-class Spirit Robe, it’s impossible to break through the barrier.”
Freya’s brow furrowed slightly. She raised her eyes and sneered, “So what is the meaning of your actions? You can’t leave this place either, can you?”
“Heh heh~” The lanky man’s lips curved into a smile, his expression eerie. “I indeed cannot leave now, but Your Highness, you will soon witness the true… peerless genius of this world!”
As he spoke, he waved the A-class Spirit Paper in his hand, and immediately, dense streams of light information poured out of the Spirit Paper, arranging themselves throughout the world like a data stream.
The Spirit Particle Structure information contained in the A-class Spirit Paper was too vast, hundreds of times that of a B-grade Spirit Robe. Therefore, releasing all this information and laying it out was more conducive to his efficient learning.
“You mean you want to learn this A-class Spirit Robe?” Freya was somewhat surprised, then let out a disdainful laugh, feeling that this guy was definitely crazy.
Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong were also somewhat surprised, exchanging glances silently.
However, their surprise was different from Freya’s. They were surprised that there was such a thing as a blessing in disguise.
We must know that the rarity of an A-class Spirit Robe was completely incomparable to that of a B-grade Spirit Robe.
This lanky man actually wanted to learn it on the spot and had even released all the Spirit Particle Structure information within it.
Mu Qingtong subconsciously glanced at it.
[Knowledge was inadvertently stuffed into Mu Qingtong’s mind. You have remembered 20% of the Spirit Particle Structure diagram of this A-class Spirit Robe.]
[Glancing a second time, Mu Qingtong actively accepted the vast Spirit Particle Structure information. You have remembered 50% of the Spirit Particle Structure diagram of ‘A·Musashi Tengu’.]
Seeing that Freya and the other two seemed to disbelieve that Lord Berna could quickly learn the A-class Spirit Robe, looking like they hadn’t seen the world, Number 104 couldn’t help but laugh and say:
“Heh, let me put it this way, Lord Berna’s Spirit Artifact is very special. Putting aside learning this A-class Spirit Robe, just remembering the entire Spirit Particle Structure diagram, Lord Berna only needs less than half a day.”
[Glancing a third time, Mu Qingtong finished browsing the vast Spirit Particle Structure information. You have completely remembered 100% of the Spirit Particle Structure diagram of ‘A·Musashi Tengu’.]
Xia Feng inwardly exclaimed “Mu Shen is awesome!” The streams of Spirit Particle Structure information filling the sky were overwhelming. He hadn’t even recovered his senses yet, and Mu Qingtong had already absorbed all the information into her mind and memorized it.
Simply not human!
Number 104 then very kindly explained the function of Berna’s Spirit Artifact to the three of them. This made Xia Feng somewhat surprised. Enlightenment Fusion; such an outrageous Spirit Artifact actually existed in this world.
Well, no matter how outrageous it was, it wasn’t as outrageous as Mu Shen.
Berna glanced at Freya and the other two. He found that only Freya looked surprised and shocked. The white-clothed man and the plain-looking black-dressed woman didn’t seem to care much, observing their surroundings on their own.
It seemed they still didn’t believe he could learn the A-class Spirit Robe.
Berna narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly, saying nothing.
The time for Enlightenment Fusion was only one month, but this was enough for him. He would need at most a month to learn the A-class Spirit Robe.
At that time, these two ignorant fools would naturally see the true genius of this world!
And when he learned the A-class Spirit Robe, it would be time to settle the score!
Especially that black-dressed woman, how dare she so brazenly destroy his laboratory! He must make this woman, who was courting death, pay the price!
