Chapter 515 Fate
After successfully registering, Gulang handed a small booklet to Su Hao, saying, “This is the Code of Conduct for Origin Masters and the most basic mental training method. Take it back and have a look. If you don’t understand, it’s okay. The team leader will teach you.”
Su Hao took it and casually flipped through it. After quickly recording the contents into his mental space, he closed it and put it away. Then, he made his request, “President Gu Yin, I’m only thirteen years old now, too young and powerless. I want to continue training for another half year before joining a team and learning from the team leader. Is that okay?”
Following this process, Su Hao keenly observed that the Origin Master Association of this world encourages Origin Masters to form intimate combat teams with each other.
Most of the knowledge about Origin Masters is taught by teammates, with the aim of establishing a master-disciple relationship for each Origin Master, thus creating a very solid network of Origin Master relationships.
It’s worth noting that, excluding blood ties, the master-disciple relationship is the most reliable type, always has been.
In other words, if Su Hao wants to master the use of ‘source’, he needs to join a team, where teammates or the team leader will guide him, thus establishing a good master-disciple relationship, making it less likely for him to defect…
However, Su Hao knew he couldn’t be too hasty. The more impatient he was about some things, the further away they became.
He was more eager than anyone to learn the essence of this world and desperately wanted to find a way to blow up a planet.
But without sufficient power to protect himself, acting rashly might result in getting nothing in the end.
Confirming his own talent as a Origin Master and obtaining some information about Origin Masters was enough.
Joining a team would inevitably involve completing various tasks, delaying his time to transform his blood energy.
Right now, he just wanted to quietly cultivate and restore his strength as soon as possible.
He didn’t dare to say he would restore his peak state, but at least he wanted to gain the abilities of ‘perception’ and ‘teleportation’, and evolve his seventh level [Child of Fate] to gain superlative survival abilities.
Half a year would be just enough.
Gulang agreed very much with Su Hao’s words, but Gu Yin, having witnessed Su Hao’s feat of chopping a steel pipe with a kitchen knife, couldn’t agree with Su Hao’s claim of being “too young and powerless.”
However, after some thought, she didn’t rush to deny it and agreed, “Since you don’t want to join a team so soon, that’s fine. You can adapt first, and we’ll talk about it after half a year!”
…
Back home, Su Hao quickly prepared dinner. After enjoying his meal, he half-lay on the chair, looking at the dishes and chopsticks, indicating that he didn’t want to wash them!
If Yashan and Feng Cheng were here, why bother with this trouble? They would have already lived a life where clothes and food were served to them.
Looking at the big dog lying next to him, it didn’t even know how to wash dishes. He couldn’t bear it anymore!
Su Hao thought to himself, “I need to find a chance to wake up Yashan and Feng Cheng.”
Finding the corresponding bodies was easy, either two doomed people or two damned people would do. He believed that in every world, there would be no shortage of such people.
He had a premonition that the ‘source’ of this world was very important to him, and to decipher the secrets of the source within a hundred years, he would need Yashan and Feng Cheng’s help.
Su Hao closed his eyes, entered his mental space, and took out the booklet he had just recorded.
The first half was the “Code of Conduct for Origin Masters,” and the second half was “Resonance of Spirit and Source.”
Su Hao briefly looked at the Code of Conduct for Origin Masters, which outlined the standards of behavior for Origin Masters, similar to laws, with the core being the control of powerful forces.
For Su Hao, the booklet was optional; it couldn’t really constrain him. As for the Resonance of Spirit and Source, it described how to stably use mental power to guide the power of the source, along with a simple mental training method attached.
This training method was slightly different from the one Su Hao had recorded before, so he decided to give it a try. Perhaps it could even provide a small increase in his mental power.
In summary, this booklet wasn’t of much use to him. With a wave of his hand, the booklet disappeared.
He exited the mental space, stood up from the chair, and sat cross-legged on the bed, refining his blood energy.
As for the dishes and chopsticks on the table… he would deal with them later when he remembered.
One month later, Su Hao completed the second stage of Bone Demon’s evolution and replenished all the depleted blood energy.
Next up: drawing the core runes and advancing to a master.
The core runes remained the same: ‘perception’, ‘hardness’, ‘space module generation’, and ‘space module positioning’.
It took him three days to draw the core runes this time, and he succeeded thoroughly.
The ability to perceive everything was back.
However, Su Hao wasn’t very satisfied with it. Compared to the previous range of 180,000 meters of perception, it was now less than a thousand meters, which was still far from enough.
But Su Hao’s most important ability had returned!
Su Hao smiled faintly as his mental tendrils extended.
‘Blink’!
In the next moment, Su Hao disappeared from his original position and appeared next to the big dog, cheerfully patting its head.
The big dog was frightened, its four legs trembling, and its fur falling off as it whimpered.
In the following time, he refined blood energy, evolved to [Child of Fate], and converted spiritual power, all simultaneously.
Another four months passed.
Su Hao successfully evolved to a seventh level [Child of Fate]. Now, with his blood energy replenished, his radar perception range once again exceeded ten thousand meters, which could be considered a peculiar peak.
In addition, the conversion of spiritual power went smoothly. Now, he was a glorious foundation building cultivator. However, it was too low-level to mention!
Now, the only thing lacking was the conversion of spiritual power. However, the conversion rate of spiritual power was extremely slow, requiring years of time. Being anxious wouldn’t help.
Currently, Su Hao’s focus was on awakening Yashan and Feng Cheng as soon as possible, and then obediently having them refine pills for him.
Without highly concentrated spiritual power medicines, cultivating immortality was simply a painstaking process.
Now, he had enough self-protection ability, and the time was ripe.
Su Hao spread out his perception to its fullest and chose a location thousands of meters away from any human presence.
‘Blink’!
Su Hao disappeared from his room and appeared in the wilderness.
The big dog widened its eyes, stunned in place, looking around for its owner. It was extremely scared.
In the wilderness, Su Hao transformed into a three-meter-tall mini [Child of Fate] and activated the invisibility formation.
With a hand gesture, he initiated the flying spell ‘Wind Escape’!
‘Blinking’ to appear several kilometers high in the sky, he quickly flew in a random direction.
After flying for an hour, Su Hao used the far-sight rune to discover a large town to his left. Immediately, he changed direction and flew toward it.
This large town must have many inhabitants, which meant there were likely people Su Hao was looking for!
He first circled high above the town for a while, observing. Then, he blinked into the woods, returned to his human form, and followed the townsfolk along the path, slowly entering the city.
This city was quite unique, with a strong industrial feel reminiscent of the 18th century. Horse-drawn carriages and automated cars moved along the city streets without any sense of discordance. The houses and shops on both sides of the streets were neatly arranged, with uniform gas pipes entering each household, and exquisite glass decorations everywhere.
A girl in a colorful robe pushed a tricycle full of flowers, followed by a group of dirty children playing behind the cart.
A formally dressed postal worker, wearing a scarf, rode a bicycle, skillfully weaving through the crowd, shouting warnings to watch out for the cart.
There was also a young gentleman in splendid attire, riding a tall horse and strolling through the streets. Any accidentally dropped horse manure was quickly collected by specialized personnel.
Was this the steam era?
Su Hao denied it immediately after taking a look around.
It just looked like it; in reality, it wasn’t.
The prevalent energy source here wasn’t steam, oil, or electricity; it was ‘source’!
Buildings, pipes, lights, vehicles, and more all appeared to be products of the industrial era, but in reality, they were all applications of ‘source’ energy.
Moreover, based on the appearance of this city, Su Hao could deduce that this kind of societal environment had been maintained for at least two hundred years.
However, reaching this level of development indicated that the people in this world had quite an in-depth understanding of the ‘source’.
Su Hao wondered where the research findings related to this were stored.
If given the chance, he wouldn’t mind taking a look.
After spending three days in this city named Huchang, Su Hao identified two targets.
One was a wealthy young master and his book boy, both around fourteen or fifteen years old.
The other was a young girl who seemed to have been drugged from somewhere. She was being skillfully dragged into a small house, presumably for malicious purposes, but Su Hao caught sight of it.
Su Hao revealed a dangerous smile. “Since we’ve met, it must be fate.”
