Use first and repay later: Advance the future cultivation fruits

Chapter 238: 143, First Apostle_3

Meanwhile, a piece of information surfaced in his mind.

“Awakened Beings, soul of the Destruction Faction?”

Lin Qing immediately understood the meaning of this information.

—This was an application of the Gate of Eternity that he had discovered.

Even for targets he couldn’t see, as long as they were within a certain range of him and met the standards of an Eternal Apostle, their essence would be captured by the Gate of Eternity, reflecting their soul and the true nature of their life.

That is to say, any being of the same level as him, within a certain range, could not escape the capture of the Gate of Eternity.

However, as it currently stood, the range of this reflection was not very large, probably just a few hundred meters.

But it was still a decent method.

“Even if Yan has hidden himself, I just need to get within a few hundred meters.”

Lin Qing continued to pretend he didn’t notice the subconscious reminder from the telekinesis, and casually walked in that direction.

Meanwhile, the Gate of Eternity in his mind also slowly rotated, attempting to reflect the nearby beings, ready to capture Yan once found.

After all, he had already arranged his escape route.

Yet… after entering the Restricted Area, one couldn’t leave within 34 hours, trying to pass the boundary of the Restricted Area would just make one feel as if the dense fog there was endless.

So, he still needed to be cautious.

Under sixty times the gravity, moving around consumed more energy. Half an hour later, Lin Qing slowly walked—

“Hm?”

Lin Qing suddenly felt something and stopped, pretending to replenish his energy. He took out a special potion and drank it while the Gate of Eternity in his mind also stopped rotating.

On the Gate of Eternity, the soul and true nature of a young boy were already reflected.

Simultaneously, a piece of information surfaced in his mind:

“Awakened Being, soul of the Life System.”

Lin Qing was overjoyed, “It’s Yan!”

Before his arrival, Chen Guang had already shown him a picture of Yan, and headquarters had also provided a photo of Yan.

He recognized him at a glance.

Although Yan’s true life nature was slightly different, the Gate of Eternity deduced the most authentic appearance based on genetics.

Injuries, diet, and state naturally caused some changes in appearance.

Unless they were twins with the same soul faction, there was no chance of misidentification, but for Yan, this young member of the Black Flame Clan, there was only one.

Lin Qing immediately thought, “Capture.”

The next moment, the Gate of Eternity in his mind trembled slightly and firmly locked onto Yan’s life nature and soul mark.

Then, Lin Qing pretended to casually walk in another direction.

…

Below the statue, within the hidden disguised scenery.

“He left?”

The blonde woman slightly raised her eyebrows, “It was just a coincidence after all.”

Even if the other party was just unsure of Yan’s location and still searching, her subconscious reminder could have guided him here.

Yet, he didn’t walk this way, obviously not targeting Yan.

However, the blonde woman continued observing for a while, and only after she was sure that he had left her telekinesis detection scope did she relax.

…

After Lin Qing left the strong telekinesis scope, confirming that his Order Level was restored, and traveled several more kilometers, he finally stopped.

“Next, just wait for Yan to die.”

Anyway, it would still take over thirty more hours before he could leave the Second Restricted Area.

He didn’t know how long Yan would survive or if his soul could pass through the obstacles of the Restricted Area after death, but he only needed to wait in the Restricted Area until Yan’s death.

Immediately, Lin Qing pretended to casually search and continued leisurely wandering around.

He didn’t delay in practicing his cultivation either, finding any place would suffice.

The sixty times gravity was a bit troublesome, as one must constantly activate Combat Skill to resist with energy consumption, otherwise, even with personal physical conditioning, it would be hard to withstand such a high-gravity environment.

However, it was good he had already attained the Instinct Level, even in the cultivation state, he could naturally stimulate it according to instinct.

If it were other Three Star Level Elite Patrol members, in such conditions, they would not dare to relax their cultivation.

…

A few hours later.

While wandering in the Restricted Area, Lin Qing also ran into an acquaintance.

It was unexpectedly Tang Wanqiu.

“Director, how come you’re here too?” Lin Qing couldn’t help but ask.

“There’s a good reward for this mission, I just came to join in.”

Tang Wanqiu said this while she transmitted via a special technique, “Minister Xu was worried about your safety inside the Second Restricted Area, so he specifically asked me to come in and protect you.”

Lin Qing knew that this type of sound transmission technique was exclusive to the Inspectors and didn’t say much, just nodding slightly.

After all, everyone had a mission recorder installed on their chests, constantly recording the visuals, sounds, movement tracks, life signs, etc., in front.

However, he could transmit via telekinesis, so it didn’t really matter.

“Lin Qing, have you found any traces of Yan?”

Tang Wanqiu walked alongside Lin Qing, transmitting her message, “Minister Xu said the Autonomy Faction has decided to attempt to rescue Yan.”

Lin Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, rescuing Yan?

“Although Yan is not from Earth, he is also from the Original Research Institute, and it seems he has obtained a rare profession.”

Tang Wanqiu transmitted, “Although he can’t use the terrifying Black Flame in the Second Cosmic Network, even without the Black Flame, his strength is extremely formidable. When it comes time to explore the Earth Treasure, he could be extremely useful.”

“Besides, he was nurtured by Dr. Chu Hui.”

Tang Wanqiu transmitted, “Dr. Chu Hui seems to have encountered many strange opportunities, and he might have even discovered a part of the Earth Treasure in reality. There might be clues on Yan’s person.”
