Chapter 548: Triune Machine Soul

On planet CV-7721, their greatest gain may not have been adamantium.

Carol rushed over; from the flickering red light and movements of this mechanical sage, it seemed he had made some major discovery.

“What’s wrong, Sage Carol?” Alvin asked with curiosity.

“I’ve made a great discovery, Your Highness,” Carol took a deep breath, as if controlling his excitement: “You must come with me.”

He had been thinking of retreating all along, but now that he was provoked to his face, his anger rose steadily, and he could not help but confront Ye Feng head-on.

After the two left, Long Bu Fan immediately returned to his room, wanting to try the feeling of cultivating with spirit stones.

She wept softly, tears like pear blossoms in the rain, and with her seemingly pure appearance, any man who saw her would instinctively feel pity and want to hold her close and comfort her.

Li Bai said sadly, then took another deep gulp of wine, as if mourning a departed friend.

“You’re still talking about it? I think you’ve really gone mad from alchemy—you’ve forgotten what happened before?” Lian Xue rebuked.

At the very moment Togakure died, the remaining Root members all received the devastating, bewildering news.

“You’re still talking? I heard him say he wants to join the Alchemy Division, Second Brother—you’re trying to target my disciple! That’s up to me to decide.” The speaker was the Fourth Elder, Jiang Danxi.

At that moment, the purple-gold spear pierced like lightning, severing a massive dragon’s head; its fierce power utterly annihilated the residual soul within.

The five characters—“Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth”—burning from his fingertips, imprinted directly onto Ang’s forehead: this was meant to seal the energy brought by the yellow mist.

Li San’s sudden action, though seemingly accidental, was understood by Feng Bu Fan: he did it first to show that Cai Yuan Tower had no ill intentions toward him, and second to stop him from pressing further on this issue.

“Master simply doesn’t want to fight them. Once Master unleashes his aura, these two would have collapsed long ago. How laughable—they thought Master was cowardly and left with contempt and pride.” Mu Xue shook her head with a cold smile; her cultivation was now quite strong, and she could vaguely sense many things.

The Throat-Cutter’s strength was immense, nearly eight thousand jin, and his movements were cunning—each strike targeted Gao Wu’s vital points, leaving Gao Wu initially unprepared and forced to fully activate his Iron Shirt defense.

Japan once celebrated the Spring Festival too, but later their so-called “Spring Festival” became New Year’s Day, not the Lunar New Year period from Lunar New Year’s Eve to the third day of the first lunar month as in Huaxia. Thus, Japan now was not as lively as Huaxia; instead, due to winter’s arrival, it felt rather quiet.

“Splash…” The moment the spherical object landed on the water’s surface, spray erupted—but before the waves could swell, a thunderous boom rang out, and a visible ripple, like a wave capable of destroying heaven and earth, swept outward in all directions.

Lai Ke was already waiting at the gate; upon seeing Ji Yun, he immediately stepped forward. Compared to a year ago, he had grown even more robust, yet when he saw Ji Yun’s street-market attire, there was not a trace of arrogance in his eyes.

In the previous world, just before leaving, Tian Tian had confirmed: under her influence, nearly all the ninja had become mutated individuals.

Fortunately, Yue Hua, with whom he had shared battlefield camaraderie, helped him successfully return to the Gao Wu world via the Sword God Sect’s teleportation array.

Mo Xuan’s expression froze when he heard the shadow agent say that; he involuntarily tilted his head, staring at the agent, unsure what he meant.

Zhen Xiao Ya’s hesitation and indecision did not escape Chen Yu’s notice. Though he now knew what trouble Zhen Xiao Ya faced, he wanted to know whether that trouble conflicted with what she intended to do—if so, whether the conflict was direct or indirect.
