Chapter 32: The Big Shot
Before the support personnel could even determine the outcome of the battle, another anomaly occurred.
On the street next to the combat zone, a pitch-black streak suddenly soared into the sky and flew towards the outskirts of the city.
Obviously, that skeleton frame was used by the opponent to attract the flames of war.
"Humph, you rat, I've been looking for you for days, and you finally showed up!"
With a cold snort, immediately afterwards, a bowl-like magical tool appeared in the sky and covered the streak of light. The light paused, halting its movement.
Finally, Wang Zijia was able to see the appearance of the opponent. It was a thin old man, emitting bursts of black smoke all over his body, his complexion somewhat gloomy, and his breath constantly in confrontation with the bowl-like object.
Watching this familiar scene, Wang Zijia glanced at the giant skeleton. Although he felt it unlikely to explode again, he quietly retreated.
It's better not to witness such a level of excitement.
Instead of watching the excitement, it's better to take the opportunity to search for more contaminated peop...
Before his thoughts could settle, Wang Zijia's mind stirred, and a familiar sense of joy arose, and his Qi became very active.
After converting true qi into Qi, his special sensitivity not only did not disappear but became even more acute due to the tainted spiritual root. Although this tainted root was forced to give birth to a child and turned into a mutated earth spiritual root that could be used for cultivation.
Wang Zijia sensed a momentary fluctuation in the direction and quietly sneaked into a nearby street.
After advancing three blocks, with a surge of energy, Wang Zijia's figure hid in the shadow of an alley.
As the spiritual light wriggled like quicksand, he concealed himself like a chameleon and temporarily exchanged the value of the talisman for the Earth Spear Technique.
In just a moment, a young man in his twenties, carrying a three-year-old child, flashed into the alley and quickly left.
Before the other party could pass through the alley, a one-meter-long earth-yellow spear flew out like lightning.
"What?!"
"Psst!"
The man was startled, but everything happened too suddenly. He didn't have time to react and was pierced through the chest by the spear, pinned to the ground.
"Psst!"
Immediately after, another spear flew out in succession, piercing the opponent's brain. Before he died, the opponent couldn't even see who was ambushing him.
The sleeping infant held securely in his arms didn't even wake up, and everything fell silent.
After waiting for a moment to confirm the opponent's death, Wang Zijia quietly revealed himself.
Mainly because this person was a bit strange. Clearly, there was a contaminated seed aura on his body, and it was quite strong, but he appeared to be a normal person.
Moreover, the opponent was carrying a child. Wang Zijia didn't want any accidents to happen, so he acted very cautiously and struck lightning-fast.
Approaching the deceased, he carefully took the sleeping child, checked it, and found no injuries. Afterward, he placed the child on the ground nearby.
Then he searched the body, but found no abnormalities. However, his Qi indicated that there was indeed a contaminated seed in the opponent's body, and it was quite strong, contaminated to at least the level of an innate marital artist.
After a moment of contemplation, amidst the fluctuation of his Qi, he familiarly entered the opponent's body and began to lure the contaminated aura.
Sure enough, a wisp of dark red smoke followed his Qi and actively flew out.
"There's really something here."
Wang Zijia's face lit up at this sight. Quickly circulating his Qi, he formed a ball of spiritual light to wrap it up.
Wang Zijia looked at the encapsulated tainted seed with a pleased expression. He had been trying to absorb it off-site for the past two days, but his true qi was insufficient, unable to hold it, and could only absorb it on-site, which was too dangerous.
Now, his newly cultivated Qi lived up to expectations, which was something to be happy about. Well, perhaps most of it was due to the tainted seed and the mutated Qi.
Wang Zijia happily took out a prepared jade box and sealed it inside.
Then he turned around, intending to throw the baby at the door of the Law Enforcement Team.
"Click!"
At this moment, a probing force suddenly struck, and immediately, cracks appeared on Wang Zijia's body, as if it was a porcelain vase. His concealment technique was actually broken so abruptly, which was extremely sudden.
"Who's there!"
Startled, Wang Zijia shouted with all his might, attempting to alert the nearby combatants.
"Huh?"
At the entrance of the alley, came a surprised voice, "You can still counteract while transformed using clay? That's quite a niche concealment technique."
Wang Zijia suddenly turned his head and found a middle-aged man standing at the entrance of the alley, whom he hadn't noticed before.
"Kid, where are your elders? Why not call them out for a chat? I'm really curious!" The middle-aged man strolled forward, looking at Wang Zijia with curiosity.
Upon seeing the appearance of the man, Wang Zijia was also stunned. Then, he immediately saluted, "Wang Zijia, a disciple of Wan Yu Pavilion, I've seen Elder Luo!"
Yes, the person who came was actually the leader who arrived in the city this afternoon, with authentic teachings from the sect, and his cultivation was unknown. In any case, it was not something Wang Zijia could handle!
"Oh, are you a disciple of our sect?" Elder Luo seemed to have mistaken Wang Zijia for someone else. After Wang Zijia saluted, he said with a strange expression, "Wan Yu Pavilion, a disciple of the miscellaneous duties?"
"Heh, now even the outer disciple selection has such high thresholds? In the early stage of the Childe level, less than ten years of dao cultivation, you've already mastered a high-level concealment technique and an intermediate-level combat technique, and have already made progress. Such talent, why are you not promoted to the outer sect, but sent out to do odd jobs?"
"Replying to Elder Luo, the disciple took over the miscellaneous duties from his elders. Strictly speaking, he hasn't applied for entry into the sect yet." Wang Zijia replied.
Elder Luo glanced at Wang Zijia again, then took out a card and checked it.
"Interesting, really interesting, it turns out to be from our own sect. I've been waiting in vain." Elder Luo said as he looked at Wang Zijia, constantly evaluating.
"Why did you take the tainted seed?"
"Uh, just out of curiosity, to study it. My father taught me that the unknown is the greatest unstable factor." Wang Zijia casually made up an excuse, while pulling out the original host's father to cover for himself.
"Studying? You're quite bold. Do you know that once contaminated, even the elders at the True Person realm would find it difficult to rid themselves of it?" Elder Luo looked at Wang Zijia, then glanced at the body behind him. His eyes flashed, seeming to confirm once again whether Wang Zijia was contaminated or not.
"It's better to be contaminated than to be in such a panic, praying for divine favor, and not to have misfortune fall on oneself. At least the disciple is prepared, and no longer feels fearful in his heart."
Speaking up to this point, Wang Zijia paused and said, "Moreover, disciple didn't dare to show his face until you and the others arrived tonight! If it were like the chaos of the past few days, disciple wouldn't dare to take such risks!"
"Hehe, you little rascal." Elder Luo smiled and said, "But you do have some courage, and quite the spirit. By the way, what technique did you use to take the tainted seed? There's not a trace of contamination in your Qi."
"Uh, the disciple obtained it like that. With a simple pull of Qi, it came out. No other techniques were used. As for the rest, the disciple doesn't know." Wang Zijia said, suddenly remembering something and added, "Oh, right, my father said my spiritual roots are somewhat mutated. Plus, the resistance of earth attribute Qi to it is quite strong."
