Art of Rejuvenation.
This was a secret technique used by grade S talent espers to erupt their strength.
Whether it was Li Tiantian or Xiao Die, the reason they worked so hard in the past, it was all for the Art of Rejuvenation. However, out of nine parts, they only managed to obtain three of them before dying to the Tian family. This was why their search for Art of Rejuvenation halted. Even so, that didn’t prevent them from understanding the might of Art of Rejuvenation.
One needs to know how powerful it was when Ping Yang only had one in his hand.
Originally, his talent was only equivalent to ordinary grade A talent, but it produced such horrifying effects under the influence of Art of Rejuvenation. Then, when three parts of them were collected, both Li Tiantian and Xiao Die joined forces and actually managed to win a glimmer of hope for Su Hao under Tian Gang’s merciless attack!
This is the power of Art of Rejuvenation.
However, what exactly is Art of Rejuvenation? Where does it come from? Why would there be nine parts? Su Hao had searched for so long, yet couldn’t find any relevant information.
Never would he have thought that they would reveal themselves to him instead.
Nine Snakes.
Based on Ming Biao’s description, Nine Snakes had nine powerful and terrifying leaders, and each talent of theirs was of the venomous type. Thus, after they were united, the organization named Nine Snakes was formed. As for the information regarding Art of Rejuvenation, he didn’t know much. All he knew was it was something researched by the higher-ups.
Art of Rejuvenation could attract grade S talent espers to join them.
After completing a certain amount of tasks, you can get a part of Art of Rejuvenation. As you contribute more to Nine Snakes, more and more Art of Rejuvenation parts would be obtained. When you make enough contributions to qualify as a veteran in the organization, you can even get all the nine parts of Art of Rejuvenation and get rid of all the side effects of a grade S talent!
Su Hao’s heart was in great alarm after finding this out.
Such a clear hierarchical system, a corresponding grade matched to the relevant contribution. As for the Art of Rejuvenation that was important to every grade S talent espers as compensation, who can refuse such an offer?
“If it’s you…” Su Hao looked at Ping Yang.
“In the past, for revenge, I was willing to pay any price!” Ping Yang said without hesitation.
“Yea…” Su Hao mumbled to himself.
At any price!
A grade S talent esper was like a non-swimmer falling into a lake. During the desperate moment, any straw that could be grabbed would be held fiercely without letting loose. Someone like Ping Yang whose heart wasn’t bad already couldn’t refuse, so what about others? What about other grade S talent espers?
“Seems like this is a huge problem.”
Li Tiantian also had a headache.
He was too well aware of what a grade S talent represents.
Most grade S talent espers were envious of Heaven and Earth. Behind their talent, there may be a history full of blood, tears, and melodramatic events. He was like that, Ping Yang was like that, and Xiao Die was no exception either.
Once these grade S talent espers obtain power, the first thing they might do would most likely be revenge!
Nine Snakes…
Art of Rejuvenation…
“Then those nine leaders, they can’t be all grade S talent espers, right?”
Su Hao suddenly thought of this possibility.
“It shouldn’t be, right?”
Everyone’s face became a bit ugly.
That wasn’t anything but grade S talent!
Grade S talent espers, once they step into the world realm, they would also be much stronger than ordinary world espers. If those leaders of Nine Snakes were really such characters, then there was no doubt this would be a huge disaster. Not to mention, there were also at least thirty-six people in Nine Snakes who were like Ming Biao.
Such a terrifying organization!
This was everyone’s evaluation.
“Nine world esper leaders, thirty-size unique talent espers, and many grade S talent espers who might possess Art of Rejuvenation. If this organization wants to create a mess, I’m afraid the entire Federation will fall into total chaos, and no one can resist it!”
“Nine Snakes…”
Su Hao pondered this name.
Ming Biao only said a portion of it since it was still just a portion of the big picture.
There was still lots of information about Nine Snakes that is unknown. For example, what is the purpose of Art of Rejuvenation? Is it really just to help grade S talent espers improve? Or are they perhaps using this secret technique to control grade S talent espers? What about Nine Snakes’s ultimate goal?
Su Hao had too many questions, and Ming Biao could answer none of them.
However, these weren’t bad things for Su Hao. With the gradual improvement of Kingdom of Heaven, Su Hao also felt a gradual increment in his strength too. If every member of Nine Snakes were all grade S talent espers or had the potential to be one…
Then that was definitely a godsend.
An organization whose members are all grade S talent espers?
“If I can establish all of their talents…”
Su Hao’s eyes turned red.
“You can’t be planning to make a move yourself, right?”
Li Tiantian wiped off his sweat. He knew Su Hao’s goal. If lady luck shines on Su Hao, he could directly step into the world realm this time. No matter what, Su Hao would never give up!
“Of course.” Su Hao shrugged, “I am still not going to court my own death. However, having said that… Don’t you think that the Federation needs to take action regarding this matter?”
“En?” Li Tiantian was shocked, “The Federation?”
However, he quickly reacted. The Federation will absolutely not allow the existence of grade S talent espers! This fact was clearly shown from the time when Uncle Lan pursued him!
If the Federation is to be well aware of such an organization…
There would be a great show to watch.
“Are you going to tell Uncle Lan?” Li Tiantian suddenly asked.
“Not me.” Su Hao smirked, “With the character of the Federation, if it knows we have the means, I’m afraid they would assume the strategy of being a fisherman or simply let us become cannon fodder. Thus, this matter can only be allowed to work if they find out by themselves. Whether if it’s the Federation or Origin Ability Association that discovers them or gets angered by this organization.”
“You want to disguise yourself as Nine Snakes?” Li Tiantian realized his plan.
“Of course.” Cold light glistened within Su Hao’s eyes, “This matter requires someone to be cannon fodder. However, killing innocent people isn’t appropriate. Seems that I need to find a few who deserve death…”
“Will they believe it?” Li Tiantian was doubtful.
“I’m afraid Ming Biao will be extremely cooperative regarding this.” Su Hao’s eyes revealed a playful gaze.
Muguang City.
Su Hao didn’t stay for long. When everything was done here, he left. Being grateful to Su Hao for his actions, the people of Muguang City even built a statue of him. Da Zhuang stared at the name Muguang City on the city wall for so long before finally using all his might to erase the name.
Muguang City was renamed to Shuguang City.
It represents a new future.
The next day, the sun rose from the mountain range. Soft light spread over Shuguang City. The people of Shuguang City smiled. At the central square of the city, a large statue stood at the center…
A statue of Su Hao.
Of course, Su Hao was clueless about this. Otherwise, he would definitely curse. He was only twenty-plus years old this year, and he didn’t want to live within the heart of the people…
*****
Somewhere in the Federation was a seemingly ordinary town.
This was the residence of Federation’s High Officer Luo Yang. It looked like an ordinary town from outside, but it was actually heavily guarded. The entire town was Luo Yang’s territory! Only thirty-five years old, and he already served as a major general for the Federation. This was an honor that was difficult for many to compete with even after a lifetime on the battlefield.
If one insisted on using a phrase to describe this, then it would be an extreme authority.
Power breeds desire.
Luo Yang made a name for himself in the past and was now having a messy private life. This can be seen from the entire town that there were no other men, excluding those from the Luo family.
Here was his harem.
In the current Federation, no one would know that he built a large harem in a remote area. Not to mention, who wasn’t afraid of entering the territory of the majestic High Officer Luo Yang? With more power in his hands, Luo Yang became more and more unrestrained these past two years. In fact, he even began to kidnap women.
As long as he fancied them, no one could escape.
However, this Luo Yang knew well to avoid crossing the line. No matter what he did in private, on the surface, he was still a mature and important major general of the Federation and represented the image of the Federation. Today, after discussing the world esper order, Luo Yang returned to his town with a tired look.
“Dad, they still hadn’t agreed?”
“Humph!”
Luo Yang took off his heavy coat, “A mere group of timid guys! They’re actually afraid of the world espers joining hands and dare not have a large scale operation. This is simply ridiculous! As long as the Federation and Origin Ability Association take action, what can a world esper do? If they could actually join hands, they would have done so earlier. Why would they wait till now?”
“Perhaps they are afraid of another Su Tiancheng.”
“Just them?” Luo Yang said in a disdain tone, “Su Tiancheng’s strength, even with a horse, they won’t be able to catch up! After all, they’re just afraid of the existence of world espers taking away their authority.”
Luo Yang naturally had no worries in front of his own child.
“Damn it.”
“A bunch of old men!”
“Afraid of the cake in their hands being divided, they actually didn’t want to consider it at all. If they have the world espers at their disposal, once we destroy the beasts in the future, how much power would they have more than they do currently? No wonder, after so many years, their authority doesn’t increase much.”
“A bunch of waste!”
“If not for us being fortunate that the first generation espers were born, what could they have achieved!”
Luo Yang sneered. His child listened helplessly and didn’t know how to refute it. Well, Luo Yang didn’t expect his child to answer him anyway. Finally, he made another decision, “The guy who took the lead today, let something happen to his family today.”
“Remember, they must die to the hands of hidden world espers. Let’s see whether he will oppose it tomorrow!”
After the arrangement, Luo Yang felt relieved. Lying in a bathtub, he called a few girls, “To be drunk and lying under a beauty’s knee, now that is what life is all about.”
“Hermit?”
“A world esper?”
“Without the ten major families to stop us, let’s see how arrogant you can be!”
Luo Yang didn’t realize that a hint of green appeared, covering them. Until after he finished pleasuring himself, everyone’s skin already turned green.
“What’s going on?!”
Luo Yang was frightened.
He’s not a weakling but a peak domain esper!
With half a step into the world realm, how could this kind of thing infect him? However, before having the time to react, the entire town was already infected! Luo Yang hurriedly requested for help, but when it was detected that the virus here belonged to an unlimited amount of replication and variants, everyone became frightened.
Vaguely, one could see green lights emerging from the town.
The doctor in charge of the test certainly understood what this represented. When the test data was transmitted to the Federation Genetic Virus General Hospital, a bright brilliance swept across the town, and such a large town was erased just like that!
The dazzling light illuminated the dull expression of two young men outside the town.
