961. The Truth (1)

Mo Fei rolled his eyes, stepped forward and asked carefully, “Senior, what is source qi?”

Cang Qian’s eyes swept over every one of them and then he said cockily, “A bunch of bumpkins. You don’t even know what source qi is. You’d definitely get fooled someday.”

Mo Fei nodded while echoing, “Yes, yes, hope you can give us some directions.”

Then he thought to himself, those old and sly foxes all keep their mouths shut, how would we ever know?

“Source qi is a necessary factor for one to become the immortal. In ancient times, the intensity of the star source force between heaven and earth was dozens of times stronger than it is now, so was the source qi. However, nowadays, the source qi is very thin and only appears at a certain time.” Cang Qian explained.

Mo Fei blinked and said curiously, “Senior, what would happen if one doesn’t have enough source qi when ascending?”

Cang Qian’s face changed, and he said with a solemn tone, “If you are lucky, you will become a demi-immortal. If you are not lucky enough, you will turn into ashes.”

A look of surprise flashed across Mo Fei’s face. “Oh, I see.”

Qian Ye felt his chin and said, “Senior, under what kind of circumstances would the source qi appear?”

“When the bloodline of heavenly phoenix and the golden dragon awakens, it’d attract the source qi. Actually, a lot of spiritual beasts of heaven and earth own the source qi inside their body. The nobler a spiritual beast’s bloodline is, the more source qi it has.” Said Cang Qian.

Mo Fei was a bit stunned, “So the little golden flood dragon is also included?”

Cang Qian nodded, “That little golden flood dragon has mutated. When he was getting promoted last time, he had attracted some source qi, but it was too little. To those who are about to ascend, it’s merely better than nothing.

Mo Fei looked at the little gold flood dragon, and in his eyes flashed some strange feeling.

Cang Qian grabbed the tail of the little golden flood dragon and swayed him, his tone changed, “But, inside him there is some source qi, which is enough to make those old things having lived for tens of thousands of years obsessed. Those semi-immortal masters’ lifespan is also limited. And before that, if they can’t become real immortals, they would also turn into ashes. And during such a long time, their chances to obtain the source qi could be counted on their fingers.”

“I see.” Mo Fei nodded.

“Senior, so Lou Yu could attract the source qi, right?” Qian Ye asked.

Cang Qian nodded and said, “There is the possibility. If the five original thunderbolts become one, it should be able to attract a lot of source qi.”

“Can the source qi be captured?” Asked Lou Yu.

Cang Qian nodded and said, “Yes.”

Mo Fei, “…” No wonder, no wonder so many people told them to be careful of Cang Qian, but refused to say the reason, so they held the same ill intention!

“Lou Yu, since you don’t want to become an immortal, when you attract the source qi, can you offer it to me? Trust me, once I become an immortal, I swear I will try to open a channel linking this world and the immortal world and I will convey the source qi in that world here.” said Cang Qian sincerely.

Mo Fei frowned, “open a channel linking two worlds?”

Cang Qian opened his eyes wide, nodded while saying, “Yes! It is said that the source qi comes from the immortal world, it was transported to this world, but the channel between the two worlds was closed. Therefore, the star source force here is getting thinner and thinner, and the source qi is getting weaker and weaker. As long as the channel between the two realms is opened, the intensity of the source qi and star source force in this realm will immediately rise.”

Mo Fei nodded and said, “I see.”

“Lou Yu, you once said you don’t want to become an immortal. Don’t go back on your words!” Cang Qian fixed his eyes on Lou Yu, saying with a very unfriendly tone, hands held on the waist.

Lou Yu smiled and said, “If my whole families could become immortals, of course I also want to.”

Cang Qian showed the whites of his eyes, “Come on! Your whole families become immortals? Do you think it’s so easy? Forget about you and Mo Fei. Boss Lou only knows eating all day long. How dare you expect him to become an immortal?”

“That is not necessarily sure, maybe my son would become the food immortal?” Lou Yu said disapprovingly.

Cang Qian gave a cold snort, saying grumpily, “damn thing.”

Mo Yi smiled and said, “Senior, in fact, it’s still too early to jump to the conclusion. After all, only after integrating all the five source thunderbolts could he attract the source qi, and that step is extremely dangerous.”

Cang Qian nodded, thoughtfully saying, “Yes, yes, you are right, it’s still to early to discuss this matter now, after all, it’s quite possible that Lou Yu could explode himself before he could attract the source qi.”

Lou Yu, “…”

Mo Fei rolled his eyes and said, “Don’t curse him, senior!”

Cang Qian turned his head and glanced at Mo Fei, “Mo Fei, you know, I see more in you than Lou Yu.”

Mo Fei was confused, “Really?”

Cang Qian nodded and said, “Yeah.”

“It’d be very dangerous for Lou Yu to attract the source qi, but you are different.” said Cang Qian.

“Me?” Mo Fei looked at Cang Qian incomprehensibly.

Cang Qian nodded and said, “You have been to the Stone Tablet Woods, right? Those stone tablets do not belong to this world.”

Mo Fei was stunned. There had been such rumors and guesses, and now they were confirmed.

Cang Qian looked at Mo Fei, saying, “There are seventy two of them. And starting from the sixty-fifth one, it’s all immortal level potions recorded on them. As long as you could comprehend things on the sixty-fifth one, you’d have the ability to attract the source qi. And if you can comprehend all things on the seventy two stone tablets, the source you’d attract would be enough for over a dozen people to ascend. But, that’s basically impossible.”

Mo Fei gave a hollow laugh and said, “I suppose so.”

Cang Qian looked at Mo Fei, “Although the risk you attract the source qi is lower than Lou Yu, it’s not that easy. You know, potion knowledge of heavenly class is not that easy to comprehend. With a little carelessness, you’d get backbitten by the stone tablets and become a fool.”

Mo Fei’s face changed and he said, “Thank you for your heads-up, senior…”
