Chapter 186: Eliminating Witnesses
Destiny's Dominion · 第一八六章 灭口
About five minutes later, the slightly turbulent 'Heaven-Devouring, Meridian-Severing, Essence-Returning, Life-Reversing Grand Array' had stabilized. At this moment, not only had Li Mochen refocused his attention on the vital energy circulating within his body, but Li Tailai, Alisa, and the others had also resumed their seats at the edge of the array.
They had already conducted a thorough search of the factory floor, ensuring that no similar incident could occur again.
However, everyone's expressions were somewhat grim. On one hand, their meditation had been interrupted, preventing them from achieving the best cultivation results; on the other hand, they were still shaken by the close call—their boss had nearly been killed right before their eyes.
Even Zhang Wei's comrades had begun to develop some goodwill toward Li Mochen. Moreover, if news of today's events got out, it would severely damage their reputations.
Li Mochen himself was not particularly concerned; on the contrary, his eyes showed surprise rather than fear.
At this moment, the bloodline power within Li Mochen's body had completely stabilized, meaning he now had two additional magic兼职: one as a 'Titan Holy Warrior' and the other as a 'Dragon Vein Sorcerer'. And from the start, they had reached the high rank of level seven.
In comparison, his main profession, 'Magic Swordsman', had become a secondary one.
So next, Li Mochen directed the remaining pure magic energy and life force toward his fundamental vital art—the 'Binary Mystic Transformation Method'!
Both the Eridanus constellation in his dantian and the Gouchen Emperor within his primordial spirit were rapidly stabilizing and strengthening.
After reaching the limit, Li Mochen's profession level smoothly crossed the boundary of level six. At this time, a new Yuan Chen divine construct formed in his mind. This time, it was the True Martial Demon-Suppressing Great Emperor, also known as Xuantian Supreme, Basaltic Emperor, Holy Lord You Sheng Xuantian Supreme, Demon-Suppressing Heavenly Lord, Jade Void Master, Nine Heavens Demon-Subduing Patriarch, and Boundless Patriarch, among others!
Corresponding to this in his dantian was the Phoenix constellation, also known as the Firebird constellation.
There was no starlight inside the chemical plant; strictly speaking, it was not the best cultivation environment for a stellar-type vital art. However, with the infusion of vast amounts of pure magic energy and life force, everything was fine.
After just one hour, with a thunderous explosion from Li Mochen's dantian and mind, his source power and mana violently contracted. Then, what flowed out was purer and more condensed source power.
Subsequently, the 'Yuan Chen Dharma Form' of the True Martial Demon-Suppressing Great Emperor and the many stars of the Phoenix constellation rapidly solidified at an astonishing speed.
About three minutes later, Li Mochen had reached the threshold of entering level eight. At this point, he stopped.
In the Primordial Dome Realm, the innate stage was the optimal period for body refinement. Once missed, it would require several times the effort and spiritual treasures to make up for. The same applied in this world. So Li Mochen planned to stay at this stage for a while longer, until his physical body reached perfect completeness at this level.
At this moment, Li Mochen took out two black-scaled fire dragon dragon crystals from his pocket and tossed them into the air. At the same time, he forced out a drop of his essence blood and shot it out.
The two dragon crystals were ground to powder in just one second. However, the life force and magic source extracted this time did not flow toward Li Mochen, nor were they absorbed by Li Tailai and the others outside the 'Heaven-Devouring, Meridian-Severing, Essence-Returning, Life-Reversing Grand Array'. Instead, under Li Mochen's control, they flowed toward his drop of essence blood.
In the next instant, the drop of essence blood began to 'sprout and grow', forming a human shape in less than 20 minutes.
...
At the Wiltonstan Charity Hospital, the spirited old man Consuelo Wiltonstan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the crystal jar placed under heavy protection ahead.
After ninety minutes, the ice and fire phenomena inside the crystal jar had subsided. The drop of blood within had now condensed into a tiny crystal, blue and red in color, containing starlight.
"Corresponding to the Titan bloodline is the Silent Demon Dragon Patrick."
Professor Abraham adjusted his glasses and looked at the magic energy monitor beside him: "Although it has dual sources of ice and fire, the structure is very stable, even solid. Andrew's soul power is stronger than we imagined. Consuelo, his future is limitless."
"What about the bloodline level? Has it been measured?"
Consuelo remained expressionless: "Is he level seven or level nine now?"
"Level seven! But judging from the situation at the time, he could have crossed into level nine."
Professor Abraham's expression was complex: "I don't know if someone taught him this or if it was his own idea, but it is commendable. Too rapid a leap would not benefit him; he is only sixteen."
At this moment, Consuelo reached out and grabbed the crystal jar placed inside the bulletproof glass box, forcefully pulling it into his hand: "Replace his blood sample with someone else's, just pick anyone."
"But!" Professor Abraham's expression showed slight displeasure: "This is an excellent experimental material. Our Wiltonstan family hasn't had anyone awaken the Titan bloodline in many years, and this time it's dual ice and fire sources."
"I will provide funding and set up a separate laboratory for you, but the personnel must be carefully selected."
Just as Consuelo Wiltonstan said this, a fully armed bald man strode in.
Both of them keenly detected a hint of blood from the man.
"Have the people been dealt with?"
"Yes, Chairman!"
The bald man bowed respectfully to Consuelo: "According to our intelligence and the results of the illusionist's investigation, four of those twelve people could have led to the leak of information about Young Master Andrew. I have sent them to hell."
"This is a bit excessive, Consuelo. They did not collude with outsiders; they only had some secret connections with your other children. I also made them sign the Styx contract."
Abraham said helplessly: "Four people died in the lab at once. How do you expect me to explain this to the outside? Don't you think those people will be suspicious? And our ancestor—he might personally look into this matter."
"My dear cousin, that is your problem. I think you have ways to handle it, don't you?"
Consuelo's voice was calm: "You know why I did this. Many years ago, I already paid the price for my carelessness."
Seeing that Abraham had no further objections, he walked out with the crystal jar in hand. Just as Consuelo was about to step out the door, Professor Abraham suddenly spoke again: "Consuelo, do you intend to make him the heir of the Wiltonstan family? To place him above his uncles and his many brothers?"
"I have that thought, but I haven't made a decision yet. But Abraham—"
Consuelo turned around, looking at Professor Abraham with a half-smile: "Even if I made such a decision, would he not be qualified?"
Abraham Wiltonstan was momentarily speechless, unable to utter another word.
Consuelo then strode out of the lab without hesitation, asking behind him: "Has that side figured it out? What exactly happened? How did he suddenly awaken his bloodline?"
"Not yet, for now."
The bald man shook his head: "We only know that at ten o'clock tonight, Young Master Andrew led a group of people into a chemical plant and then sealed all entrances and exits. Canur couldn't get close; you said we must not get too close or be discovered by anyone."
"I did say that."
Consuelo frowned, then said thoughtfully: "A group of people, you say?"
"Regarding this matter, we reported it to you before. He is using the financial resources of the Nathan Group to recruit followers, seemingly planning to make a big move."
The bald man's tone carried a hint of incredulity: "It's because of Hazel. That girl was recently kidnapped by the Blood Hand Gang. Young Master Andrew is very angry about this. We suspect it has something to do with the Dragon Witch Cult behind the Blood Hand Gang—"
"It seems he is serious."
Consuelo rubbed his forehead: "Find a way to figure out exactly what he intends to do."
"Regarding this, your assistant Mr. Diamond has already made arrangements."
The bald man bowed slightly: "He said that before long, we will be able to accurately keep track of Young Master Andrew's every move."
"That boy always handles things to my satisfaction."
Consuelo praised: "Let it be then. For now, let's wait and see. Whatever Andrew wants to do, let him. Just make sure to ensure his safety. And about Hazel, investigate thoroughly; the Dragon Witch Cult couldn't have targeted her for no reason."
