In the early morning, the first rays of sunlight shone through the window into the Cultivation Room. Chen Fan, sitting cross-legged on a meditation cushion, slowly opened his eyes, showing a look of lingering enjoyment on his face.
One had to admit, this feeling of absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, watching the Primordial True Qi on the panel increase bit by bit, was quite addictive.
If possible, he really wished he could ignore everything else and sit here absorbing Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi until he broke through to the Celestial Human Realm.
What a pity.
He instantly stood up from the ground and looked out the window.
According to the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill’s prediction, the Song Family members would arrive at the headquarters by noon today. As the person involved, he couldn’t ignore this.
And before setting off, it was best to inform Elder Wang and have the old man return to headquarters.
This time, Elder Wang’s arrival had helped him a lot already, and he wasn’t a greedy person.
Secondly, the headquarters couldn’t lack a Celestial Realm Martial Artist; this instance was a prime example.
"Let’s test the perception of the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill."
Chen Fan’s lips curled up slightly.
Feeling somewhat curious and very expectant.
The first time he met Elder Wang, he tried using the Celestial Response Technique to sense the other’s aura but was surprised to find that he couldn’t sense it at all.
He had asked Elder Wang about it, and Elder Wang had explained with a smile that this was the difference between Celestial Realm Martial Artists.
They merge with the surrounding Heaven and Earth, and unless they actively release their aura, Martial Artists below the Celestial Realm, even if they can see, cannot sense it.
Unless it’s a special kind of sensing martial arts.
For instance, the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill.
After all, it could perceive the changes of the Three Powers and sense a Celestial Realm Martial Artist’s aura; wasn’t that just child’s play?
In the next second, he activated the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill, and immediately, a flood of information rushed into his mind.
These included the auras of Awakeners, Martial Artists, ordinary people, as well as things that even the Celestial Response Technique couldn’t sense, such as houses, trees, cars, and so on.
Calling it perception was not quite fitting, it was more like he was overlooking the earth from high above, and his gaze had penetrative power; even the movements hundreds or thousands of meters underground could not escape his eyes.
"How powerful."
Chen Fan couldn’t help but sigh.
No wonder it was the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill.
With this level of perception, even if an earth-burrowing Fierce Beast appeared, he could detect it immediately and slay it the moment it emerged.
And the continuous consumption of Spiritual Power was nothing to him at the moment.
"It seems that the second wave of the Beast Tide coming tonight won’t be as hard to deal with as imagined."
He thought to himself and suddenly remembered something: he seemed to have forgotten the main purpose, which was to find Elder Wang.
His Spiritual Power swept across the entire city again, not missing a single corner, and then, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
He couldn’t sense Elder Wang’s aura!
"How could that be?"
Chen Fan frowned.
In the past few days, Elder Wang had been wandering the streets and alleys like an ordinary old man, chatting with people.
Moreover, he had given him a piece of advice just last night.
It’s only been one night, and the man is gone?
"Elder Wang would never leave without saying anything. Even if he had something urgent to take care of, he would have let me know. Is it that the old man has a powerful method of concealing his aura, or did I just overlook something?"
Chen Fan swept his Spiritual Power a few more times, even searching around Anshan City, but still, he couldn’t sense Elder Wang’s aura.
"Where exactly did things go wrong?"
Chen Fan couldn’t figure it out.
But he also knew that time could not be delayed any longer; it was time to head to the Jiangnan City headquarters.
It was still alright if Elder Wang didn’t follow, because he had received an email from Shen Si last night, informing him that the few people involved were basically from the Song Family. Among them, the silver-haired elder was a Celestial Human Realm Martial Artist from the Song Family, and though he was at the Early Stage, his strength was not to be underestimated because he had cultivated a Supreme-level Martial Arts known as the Four Symbols Profound Skill.
This martial art could summon the powers of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning with immense might.
It was said that he had perfected this martial art to the Great Success Realm, almost reaching Perfection, and could merge the four elements to unleash earth-shattering power.
Besides him, the current Song Family Patriarch, Song Tian, was also among them. His strength was formidable, known as the number one beneath the Celestial Human Realm. Even the former Shi Tao, before his breakthrough, only had a four-in-ten chance of winning against him.
Because Song Tian sought not the First-grade Martial Arts True Pill but the Celestial Grade.
The other few people were also core members of the Song Family.
However, the two other Feng Country people were not to be underestimated either.
The elder among them, named Carl Larson, was the patriarch of the Larsen Clan and also John’s father.
He possessed the bloodline of the werewolf progenitor; transformed into a werewolf, he didn’t need a full moon to go berserk, which was terrifying because he remained rational even in his berserk state.
Conservatively estimating, his combat power was equivalent to that of an Early Stage Celestial Realm Martial Artist.
When he saw this information, Chen Fan let out a long breath.
Fortunately, he had been cautious enough to portray the appearances of these people. There were actually two Celestial Realm Martial Artists coming this time.
With only Chairman Shi at the headquarters, it would be tough to stop them.
But with himself there, the situation would be different.
