Chapter 547: Chapter 319: Arrival and Test Operation

Dingling~

With the phone ringtone sounding.

Chen Sheng picked up the phone and opened the message.

“Finally, it’s here?”

Looking at the content of the message, he whispered to himself.

Chen Sheng was never a cultivation fanatic.

He walked step by step from being a weak ordinary person to where he is today.

Only out of the fear of death.

Only by crushing all his enemies to death could his heart find peace.

Heavenly Person,

is already the most powerful enemy that Chen Sheng could foresee at this stage.

To kill them and then return to normal life.

This is Chen Sheng’s purpose.

And something he must accomplish.

Thinking of this,

Chen Sheng closed his eyes and brushed away the thoughts in his mind.

With each breath,

the airflow on the mountain top gradually intensified.

Fierce winds swept the clouds and mists, enveloping the entire mountain top.

Boom—

Thunder exploded.

Light flashed in the clouds and mist.

But this process did not last long.

The clouds and mists dispersed.

The mountain top was now empty.

———-

Far South Continent.

The cold wind howled, and snow covered the earth.

Ice blue and pure white intertwined, forming this lonely and quiet continent.

This is the southernmost point of the planet.

It is formed by ice and snow.

And it is the coldest continent on the entire planet.

It does not belong to any country, nor is it inhabited by any humans.

Only a few animals that can withstand the cold are scattered throughout the continent.

But today,

the situation is different.

The land that used to be filled with cold and solitude is now lively.

In a certain area,

fully-armed transcendents wandered around, installing some cylindrical devices on the ground.

“President Li.”

“Who exactly are we waiting for?”

“You know, right now, every minute and every second is precious to us.”

“Losing one minute each night gathering specific Heavenly Person reports will shorten our research time.”

Li Wuji stood with his hands behind his back on the icy and snowy ground, his expression calm.

In front of him was a hole about ten meters in diameter, with no bottom in sight.

At the edge of the cave entrance, a large number of scientific researchers were setting up portable instruments, conducting preliminary exploratory actions.

By Li Wuji’s side were Paladin Ouer,

and a tall and burly man wearing silver-white heavy armor.

His name was Rhein, a transformed soldier from the Char Federation.

He was also the only transformed soldier with strength comparable to a top warrior.

And the one who asked Li Wuji earlier was Rhein.

While speaking,

the green tendons on Rhein’s forehead bulged, and his face looked very unpleasant.

It seemed that he was enduring some sort of pain.

Under these circumstances, his tone was particularly aggressive, as if he could attack at any time.

“I’m waiting for someone.”

“I’m waiting for someone who can greatly ensure the safety of this journey and help me save a lot of time.”

However, the other two men didn’t care about this.

Li Wuji answered with a smile.

He believed that in the upcoming exploration, Chen Sheng would be able to do even more than he said.

It has been half a month since the Kyoto incident,

and more than a week since Li Wuji last saw Chen Sheng in action.

In his opinion, Chen Sheng would only be stronger than he had imagined.

Therefore,

Li Wuji had no intention of explaining further.

The other two men, who heard this, reacted differently.

Paladin Ouer’s eyes lit up, and there was a hint of expectation hidden in them.

During the International Conference’s proceedings, Ouer had sparred with Li Wuji.

The result was, of course, Li Wuji’s victory.

But Li Wuji was much older and had been exposed to the world of the transcendent for a much longer time than Ouer.

Therefore,

Ouer was not surprised by the outcome.

After obtaining a share of the secret skills from the Martial Arts Association, he had enough confidence to surpass Li Wuji in a very short period of time.

But,

even after the contest,

when Ouer asked Li Wuji if he considered himself the number one genius he had ever seen, Li Wuji still shook his head lightly.

The culmination of various events and details had piqued Ouer’s interest in the mysterious genius.

Now, hearing this,

he was both excited and expectant.

If all went as expected, the one who could make Li Wuji, the president of the Martial Arts Association, say such words must be of great importance.

Very likely, it was the mysterious genius that Li Wuji had been hiding!

Thus,

in his excitement, Ouer’s gaze began to search around.

Preparing to find traces of that person’s arrival.

As for the transformed soldier Rhein,

he snorted coldly.

Although he still looked angry, he did not say much.

Because Rhein knew very well that being at Li Wuji’s position, his words must have their reasons.

All he could do now was believe what the other party said.

As for why he appeared to be angry,

“Huff—”

At this moment,

Rhein slowly closed his eyes.

The streamlined silver-white armor on his body glowed faintly.

Immediately after,

Rhein’s furrowed brow relaxed,

and his face became calm.

The power of transformed soldiers was different from that of other transcendents; it was obtained through technology and genes.

The advantage is that once there is mature technology and sufficient materials, a large number of them can be replicated in a short period of time.

The disadvantage,

of course, is that transformed soldiers are limited by technological level and can hardly improve their strength through personal training.

And Rhein,

as a transformed soldier, had a strength that was not inferior to a top martial artist.
