Zhong Kui's Diary
Thinking about it, it made sense, and I couldn't help but panic. I quickly took out my phone and called Jin Manyuan. This time, Jin Manyuan answered the call promptly.
I explained the situation here, and Jin Manyuan became anxious: "How is that possible? I've never encountered anything like this before!" Then, Jin Manyuan's tone shifted, and with a cold laugh, he said, "Zheng Nan, you'd better not play tricks. Otherwise, I'll kill those hostages!"
"Play tricks? Are you kidding me? I'll send you a WeChat message!" I cursed and hung up. I took a photo and tried to send it to Jin Manyuan via WeChat, but the signal was poor, and the photo wouldn't go through.
Soon after, Jin Manyuan called me back, threatening me fiercely: "I don't care what your situation is; you have to handle it. Otherwise, all your family and friends will die!"
"Damn!" I was also anxious and shouted angrily: "You bastard! Right now, this Metal Plate is one whole piece. How am I supposed to open it? If you have the guts, tell me where you are, and I'll come over to fight you! Damn it, after you absorb Solar God Energy, you might be controlled by it too. At that point, not only will I be killed by you, but my family and friends will also die! Whether it's early or late, they'll all die anyway; I'd rather fight now!"
Jin Manyuan snorted coldly: "Are you sure you want me to kill the hostages right now?"
"Go ahead and kill them!" I shouted.
"Fine, I'll start with your parents, then I'll kill Yang Guo'er and Xiao Qingcheng!" Jin Manyuan sneered.
Upon hearing this, I immediately deflated and fell silent.
No matter who Jin Manyuan wanted to kill now, I would never agree. Jin Manyuan knew that I was someone who valued emotions too much; there were simply too many weaknesses he could exploit.
I do not deny this; once someone asked me to participate in an experiment where I had to write down the names of ten people I was most familiar with and then 'kill' them one by one to see who I'd choose to keep in the end.
My answer was simple: I beat him up!
Seeing that I was half-silent, Jin Manyuan took the opportunity to give me a way out: "Zheng Nan, maybe you can try attacking this Metal Plate with a Spell, because this Metal Plate is part of a magic array."
"Alright, I'll give it a try!" I muttered as I hung up the phone.
Looking at the Metal Plate beneath my feet, I raised my hand and unleashed a Nine Divine Thunder. I slightly compressed this Nine Divine Thunder; the originally five-meter-wide lightning was reduced to one meter in diameter, but its power did not diminish much.
With a crack, the lightning struck the Metal Plate directly. The coldly glowing Metal Plate surprisingly emitted a dazzling light of pale blue, which flashed and disappeared, and the Metal Plate returned to its previous appearance.
Hmm, it seems to have some effect.
I asked Song Xi and Shen Sipan to step back a bit, and then unleashed a Thunderous Strike on the Metal Plate. Similarly, this Thunderous Strike was also compressed, with dense lightning striking the Metal Plate.
This time, the Metal Plate turned into an eerie sapphire blue. It remained that way until the Thunderous Spell completely finished; then it slowly changed from sapphire blue to blue, then to light blue, and finally returned to the coldly glowing appearance of the Metal Plate.
It seems that my magical power is still insufficient to destroy this Metal Plate.
Oh right, I can also use the Kill You Divine Skill.
With a shout, I activated the Spell. The energy from my entire body surged into my lower body as I leaped into the air, changing poses several times before finally landing on the Metal Plate with Child's Salutation to Guanyin.
Boom!
After a muffled sound, the Metal Plate showed no reaction whatsoever.
After a while, under the surprised gazes of Song Xi and Shen Sipan, I awkwardly stood up: "Damn, I just slipped!"
Shen Sipan mocked, "Zhong Boss, stop trying to argue. Can a slip really lead to soaring into the air?"
Song Xi laughed, "Life is already so difficult; some things are better left unspoken. Ghost Brother, this is what we call 'the buttocks move back, like a wild goose landing on flat sand.'"
I couldn't help but feel angry and embarrassed. "If you two keep making sarcastic remarks, I'll strike you down with lightning!"
Shen Sipan quickly changed the subject, "Ahem, well, it seems that the Buddhist light is getting dimmer. Zhong Boss, we need to think of a way quickly!"
Hearing this, Song Xi returned to the main topic, "Ghost Brother, I saw the situation with Metal Plate just now. You were just one step away. As long as you learn Mana Control, you can definitely shatter Metal Plate!"
"Then hurry up and teach me!" I exclaimed joyfully.
"Well, it's not something that can be learned in a short time!" Song Xi pointed to the Buddhist light above us. "This light is already very faint. I'm afraid that once it disappears, this magic circle will vanish as well."
With no other choice, we had to continue our studies in the Mystical Realm.
I took out the golden sphere and grabbed Song Xi's hand. In an instant, we entered the Wind Sweeping the Remnants of Clouds Realm.
"Wow! The Mystical Realm looks like this; it's so beautiful!" As soon as we arrived, Song Xi exclaimed joyfully.
I looked around; the Mystical Realm had transformed into an endless wheat field at some point. A gentle breeze passed by, causing waves of wheat to roll.
What was most amusing was that the song of the Wind Rooster echoed in the air:
Under the distant blue sky
Golden waves of wheat surge
Right there where you and I
Loved
When the breeze carries the scent of harvest
Blowing against my face
I remember your gentle words
That once moistened my eyes
Hmm...
"Eh, what are you talking about?" I interrupted Wind Rooster's singing with a mix of laughter and exasperation.
"Master, aren't you here to pick up girls? I've created such a great environment for you, and you don't appreciate it?" Wind Rooster's voice came through, sounding quite aggrieved.
"I'm here to learn Spell!" I retorted with a laugh, then turned to Song Xi and said, "As a trade, I'll tell you the secrets of the Yi Jin Jing and the Washing Marrow Classic first!"
Song Xi was looking around with a cheerful expression, clearly interested in everything. Upon hearing my offer, she pouted and said, "I don't want the secrets of the Yi Jin Jing or the Washing Marrow Classic. I want this Mysterious Realm Golden Sphere!"
I ignored her and began explaining the mysteries of the Yi Jin Jing and the Washing Marrow Classic, thinking it would impress her. After all, isn't there anything more attractive to someone cultivating than replicating magical power?
To my surprise, Song Xi showed no interest at all: "Ghost Brother, even if I could replicate ten thousand magical powers, so what? This thing can't stack. Whether it's one magical power or ten thousand, I'm still at Master-Level. I can't break through to Grandmaster Level, so what's the use? Besides, I'm a girl; there's really no need for me to learn so much about fighting!"
"Doesn't your family need it?" I asked in astonishment.
"No matter how powerful a family is, can it be more powerful than the Judgment of Life and Death?" Song Xi sighed with a bitter smile. "Even if the Song Family had produced sixteen Grandmaster Level experts in the past, what good did it do? They were still washed away by the tides of time."
I clicked my tongue in thought and asked, "Do you really want this Mysterious Realm Golden Sphere?"
Song Xi nodded with a smile. "Yes, yes, that's the one."
I shrugged my shoulders and raised my hands. "I'm not angry; this Mystical Realm isn't something you can just take! Why don't you ask if it wants to go with you? If it agrees, I'll gladly give it to you!"
I wasn't pretending to be generous; I had once wanted to give the Mystical Realm to Qingcheng to enhance her magical power or at least provide some protection. To my surprise, the Mystical Realm kept crying out and refusing to leave me, saying things like 'mountains may crumble and earth may merge but dare not part from you.'
Forget about their sister... "Sister, you're on the boat~ h~h~ I'll walk on the shore..."
I was almost going crazy.
"Hey, do you want to be with me?" Song Xi shouted loudly.
"You're actually asking me if I want to go with you?" came the loud laughter of Wind Rooster from the air.
I couldn't help but feel a pang of concern; it was bad news, who knows what kind of unpleasant things Wind Rooster would say.
"Of course I want to!"
To my surprise, I actually heard Wind Rooster say this.
Song Xi was instantly overjoyed, her face blooming with a smile.
I stood there in shock for a while before finally shouting, "Wind Rooster, are you not being enchanted by her charm? Answer me!"
Wind Rooster laughed heartily, "Don't joke around. Do you think I haven't seen beautiful women? Even if Yang Mi, Liu Yan, and Sun Li all stripped down and chased me down the street, it would be considered lewd if I even glanced back!"
"Then what's going on with you?" I asked in astonishment.
"It's a secret!" Wind Rooster chuckled.
Secret my foot! I almost cursed out loud, but then I thought better of it. It was clear that Wind Rooster had made up his mind; there was no point in trying to stop him. Besides, if I couldn't activate this magic circle, Jin Manyuan would kill my family and friends. At that point, what would be the meaning of keeping the golden ball?
Feeling somewhat disheartened, I said, "So how can I hand you over? Do we need to sign some life-and-death contract? Or should I just kill you and then she can activate you?"
"She doesn't have Yin-Yang Energy, how could she possibly activate me?" Wind Rooster said anxiously. "There's no need to complicate things. Here’s a mantra; if you recite it together with her, it’s equivalent to completing the transfer procedure."
After silently reciting the mantra that Wind Rooster taught us along with Song Xi, I found that the connection between Wind Rooster and me had indeed vanished. Instead, Song Xi was beaming with excitement, clearly now the master of Wind Sweeping Away the Clouds.
"Since we’ve known each other for a while, there’s something I want to say to you," Wind Rooster suddenly spoke in a low, melancholic tone.
I felt much more at ease and chuckled, "What do you want to say?"
"Big guy, remember to come visit often!" Wind Rooster said sorrowfully before bursting into laughter.
I couldn't be bothered with him and turned to Song Xi. "Now, can you teach me how to control my magic?"
Song Xi nodded and quietly instructed Wind Rooster to stop talking. Then she pulled out a thin book from her Spatial Bag, about the size of a notebook, with roughly ten pages.
I was somewhat surprised. "Is this all about controlling magic Spells?"
"Of course not!" Song Xi’s words lifted a heavy weight off my heart. Thank goodness, otherwise memorizing so many pages would have been quite frustrating.
Then, Song Xi chuckled lightly. "This is just the table of contents for the Spells!"
Her statement left me speechless. I stammered, "Table of contents? You mean...?"
Song Xi waved her hands, and suddenly dozens of thick books appeared on the ground. "These are the Spells you need to learn!"
