Chapter 272

~7 min read 1,238 words

If you had a pair of eyes that could peek into a heart, who would you most want to look at?

Feng Mu gave his answer with actual action; the person he most wanted to examine was undoubtedly none other than himself.

【You are peeking into a heart full of secrets!】

【Within this beating heart, you have glimpsed an ability.】

【Molding Embryo (Green):

This is an ability derived from an Iron Eater; obtaining this ability allows you to reshape your own bones like forging pig iron.】

【Copy?】

A prompt box popped up on his retina; Feng Mu took a deep breath, the corner of his mouth hooking into a faint, mysterious arc.

"As expected, the Blood Bar Ghost Eye can likewise glimpse my own abilities, and the first glimpse wasn't a pure martial art like the Crane Claw Technique, but it could actually directly perceive the Molding Embryo — truly far beyond my expectations."

Feng Mu spoke to himself facing the mirror, his voice revealing a trace of excitement he could hardly conceal.

Feng Mu's expression at this moment was like that of a mental patient immersed in mad fantasy; he greedily gazed at his own powerfully beating heart, and countless evil and dangerous thoughts sprouted in his heart:

"Since the Blood Bar Ghost Eye can glimpse the Molding Embryo, it might also be able to glimpse the Tongue Root Death Curse, the Death-Substitute Twins, the Proxy's Gift — these abilities that basically all belong to the Qiyi category, right?"

"Even, can the Blood Bar Ghost Eye glimpse the Blood Bar Ghost Eye itself?"

Feng Mu's eyes rolled around, flashing with a Qiyi light, as if he had already seen all kinds of Qiyi possibilities unfolding before his eyes.

"Since the Blood Bar Ghost Eye's glimpse is random, what I'm thinking isn't impossible."

Feng Mu withdrew his blood-stained bone finger with satisfaction, his smile slightly morbid.

And, with the operation of the Blood Flesh Initial Solution True Art, his torn chest seemed to be slowly pulled together by invisible hands, gradually healing, aligning the granularity of flesh and blood.

Feng Mu naturally did not choose 【Copy】; at this moment he was merely acting out of curiosity, wanting to verify his guess, and temporarily had no plans for suicide.

Feng Mu knew very well that once copied, the copied heart in his chest would be drained of life vitality and turn into a stone.

Before finding a way to survive without a heart, Feng Mu would not rashly use such an ability on himself.

"Of course, it's not necessarily required to find that kind of method either; after all, I still have other... options."

Feng Mu opened the Skill Panel, slightly narrowing his eyes; his gaze repeatedly paced between the explanations of the two skills, Blood Bar Ghost Eye and Death-Substitute Twins, carefully comparing and analyzing the weight of every word inside.

【Blood Bar Ghost Eye lv2】: Activate this Secret Art, and you can see the opponent's Blood Bar; the cost is that during the Secret Art, both your and the opponent's bodies will be datafied.....

Ps:

1, A person can only be peeked at once a day.

2, A person can only be copied once in a lifetime.

3, The heart cannot stop beating for more than 1 hour.

【Death-Substitute Twins lv1】: When your main body dies, you can choose to distribute half the death to believers, letting them bear the cost of death in your stead, while you thereby regain a new life.

Feng Mu carefully chewed over the textual explanations of the two Secret Arts; he wasn't nitpicking wording, he was simply doing a "reading comprehension question".

Question: In the above two Secret Art explanations, is the new "life" granted by Death-Substitute Twins to be recognized as the same "life" as the one "life" noted in Blood Bar Ghost Eye?

The system did not answer the question Feng Mu posed; this question he must explore, attempt, and pay the price for himself.

If the two belong to the same "life", then naturally there's nothing more to say.

But if they are not the same "life", then infinite mysteries and room for manipulation may be contained therein.

At least,

An incredible hypothesis had already involuntarily taken shape in Feng Mu's mind.

Hypothesis:

I already possess a pair of high-level Blood Bar Ghost Eyes, and then I find a way to obtain another pair of high-level Blood Bar Ghost Eyes; then I would possess two pairs of high-level Blood Bar Ghost Eyes — what kind of chemical reaction would occur then?

Those who understand understand; those who don't can go learn about the touching stories of mutual love and killing behind the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

The only regret is that in this world, Feng Mu cannot conjure an Imoto who possesses Blood Bar Ghost Eyes out of thin air — not because he lacks an Imoto, or because he doesn't love his Imoto enough.

Purely because Imoto is a "Muggle"; she cannot awaken the eyes.

So, on this matter, Feng Mu can only rely on himself.

Of course, this road is still distant; he has currently only unlocked lv2 Blood Bar Ghost Eye, and there is still a long way to go before the legendary Mangekyou-level Blood Bar Ghost Eye.

Feng Mu is merely preparing for the future; it's his nature to always plan ahead — he's just that far-sighted.

But, it might not be far-sightedness either.

Feng Mu washed his body clean, walked out of the Restroom, lay back on the bed, his fingers unconsciously swiping across the Mobile Phone Screen, flipping to the message column, slowly sinking into contemplation.

The blue light of the Mobile Phone Screen fell on his face, reflecting his complexion with a corpse-like cold whiteness; his pupils rotated eerily, flashing with a wicked cold light, and the Inside Room echoed with sleep-talk-like whispers:

"Actually, it might not truly be that distant either; it's just a Road Home!"

Feng Mu exited the message column, then opened the mobile map application, inputting his current location and home address.

The map navigation was very Understanding, immediately helping him calculate that the straight-line distance Home was even less than ten kilometers.

8.08 kilometers — this number appeared both Auspicious and carried a hint of ominousness.

"Right now it's April 26th, Tuesday, 05:49 AM; there are still five days until Sunday; I don't need to rush a decision; I can consider a few more days."

Feng Mu was still somewhat Hesitant; it showed that family weighed very heavily in his heart; he really I cry to death.

Beep beep—

The phone abruptly popped up an advertisement message.

【——Today auspicious for burial, all-night vigil, memorial rites, movie-watching.

——Today inauspicious for reunion, marriage, family gathering, sleep.

If you need to test other fortunes reply 1; if not needed, reply "TD" to Unsubscribe.】

【Want to help others calculate their fortunes? Click the Link below...】

Different from before, this time there was an extra line of test Link below the ad.

This scene seemed familiar; Feng Mu blanked for a moment; he swore he had only agreed on a Text Message code with Ma Bin, yet had never imparted any knowledge about "telecom fraud" to the other party.

Only way to say it, Ma Bin was still self-taught.

"This kid is just like me!"

Feng Mu sighed with emotion, and clicked the link with a bit of curiosity....
