Chapter 196: Chapter 189: The Invincible Bull (Three More for Monthly Passes) Chapter 196: Chapter 189: The Invincible Bull (Three More for Monthly Passes) About three hours later, Lin Rui emerged from the mountain estate feeling refreshed and invigorated.
On the way back, Lin Rui occasionally swung his blade in practice gestures.
“Is this what they call martial intent?”
His martial arts enlightenment was still half-baked, but it was enough to scare the wild animals within several miles into a frenzy, sending them running in all directions.
The tiny creatures like ‘field mice’ of the Heavenly Extremes Star fainted outright.
Meng Weiyun’s bloodline ability was extremely powerful, able to gather and strengthen any material, including the human soul.
With her spiritual Secret Technique to guide him, Meng Weiyun not only helped him rapidly condense his martial intent but also started off by strengthening it to a higher level, saving him months of training.
Meng Weiyun could even bolster his physical condition and Golden Core, but it required Lin Rui’s own stance training to perform, and the effect was far less potent than the enhancement of martial intent.
...
It is said that this single day’s enhancement could equal ten days’ worth of his usual Golden Core consolidation, and the price Meng Weiyun paid was merely a bit of mental exhaustion each day.
Lin Rui was actually startled after learning the principle behind it.
Aggregation and strengthening of the soul?
Was he still himself then?
However, judging from the outcome, Meng Weiyun’s bloodline ability did not involve memory or thought processes.
If one had to describe it, it was as if the soul had been compressed, turned from a gaseous state into liquid, and it had formed a core, which was his enlightenment of ‘one’.

Lin Rui enthusiastically practiced releasing his saber intent, causing chaos amidst the mountains with animals scattering helter-skelter, as the intelligent assistance system alerted him of a new message.
Lin Rui initially thought it was from Yu Feicui, but after checking, he found out it was from Invincible Bull.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Lin Rui, where are you?
When can you come over?
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Old Fei, you can send messages now?
Is your biotech chip fixed?
Meanwhile, Fei Yunlai, hidden in another estate, couldn’t help but touch his chin in resignation.
This guy had downgraded him to ‘Old Fei’, which meant his dignity and prestige in that fellow’s eyes had utterly collapsed.
But there was no helping it, now that someone had already handled his spine and heart, he couldn’t bring himself to be assertive.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): No, I’ve only restored the quantum communications module for now.
The quantum descension module is beyond repair, and I’ve asked Professor Han to make a new biotech chip for me.
It’ll arrive in a few days, but the problem is how to implant it.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Do you need my help with that?
Fei Yunlai instantly sent a bowing emoji.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): I can only rely on the honor of being a disciple of Professor Sima!
As the saying goes, one shouldn’t trouble two masters for the same cause, so since I already owe you my life, there’s no need to be indebted to someone else further.
Lin Rui silently snickered, thinking how shameless this guy was.
Yet, he still agreed quite readily.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Fine!
I’ll conduct a couple of simulation surgeries when I have time.
Is there any truth to this?
After reading the message, Fei Yunlai first felt it was absurd, thinking what kind of ludicrous intelligence is this?
But his expression gradually turned solemn.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Damn, that crazy woman isn’t going to stop at nothing to get me because of this, is she?
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): Brother, thank you for the reminder.
This information is too important to me.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): ???
What exactly is the situation?
Can you explain in detail, Old Fei?
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): It’s quite complicated.
I can’t explain it clearly in a short time.
I’ve got to deal with some stuff here, put some evidence together, and I will contact you later.
If you have some channels in the Imperial City then, maybe you can help me deliver some things, haha!
Perhaps it could even help you get a promotion, maybe an Instructor or something.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): But brother, if you really are going to the Imperial City, just play along superficially, and don’t get too involved.
Now the Heavenly Beings’ ‘Heavenly Demon Test’ is becoming increasingly perfected, almost without flaws.
If your identity is exposed, you’ll only be able to wander the world like me, drifting and uncertain.
After sending this message, Fei Yunlai did not contact him again.
Lin Rui sent a message in return but received no reply.
He shook his head slightly, closed the communication system, and then hurried back to the Wang City Government Office.
In the following days, Lin Rui’s life began to fall into a routine.
During the day, he’d roam the city with Wang Sen hunting monsters, accumulating Soul Power while earning some money on the side; while at the government office, he made meticulous arrangements, keeping his subordinates on high alert, ready to deal with any emergencies;
At night, Lin Rui would sneak out of the city and, with the help of Meng Weiyun, focused on condensing the martial arts extremes and cultivating his Golden Core.
In the pre-dawn hours of the third day, while Lin Rui was forehead to forehead with Meng Weiyun, cultivating martial intent, he suddenly heard a loud explosion from the direction of the city.
“Master!” It was Blood Blade, keeping watch on the rooftop, who sent the message, “It’s our Wang City Government Office, something’s happened there!”
Lin Rui was startled and immediately ceased his cultivation, appearing outside the door in a flash.
Looking towards Wang City, he first saw a burst of flames shooting up into the sky, followed by a blinding firework rising slowly.
—That was the distress signal released by Li Li.
Lin Rui’s gaze turned slightly fierce.
It must be the judicial officials attempting to break out their cohorts and the ‘Heavenly Demon’ locked up inside.
This was what Lin Rui had been anticipating.
He had waited three whole days, releasing various messages and even orchestrating ruses with Meng Weiyun’s war dragon, all to induce these people to make a move.
Today, these fellows had finally come.
Lin Rui had also considered in advance the methods the judicial officials might employ for the jailbreak.
Yet they chose the most lawless, the most domineering approach—they dared to directly attack the Wang City Government Office and forcibly enter the prison!
Lin Rui knew this was the judicial officials’ response to the several humiliations he had inflicted on them.
They wanted to walk over the face of Wang City, to destroy the recently established prestige of the place.
