Chapter 109: Fire of Karma [Sixth Update]
Bai Jing's injuries this time were more serious than any previous times. Even though his body seemed to have been reconstructed, the karma fire was still causing him continuous harm.
With such an injury, Bai Jing couldn't recover in a short time.
Three days——
It took Bai Jing three full days to recover his strength and the power flow returned to its peak.
After that, it took another three days for Bai Jing to increase the magnetic field strength from 400,000 to 500,000. Now it was the "limit" that his body could accept. It would be easier to break through than from 250,000, but it would still take some time to do.
The reason for this is that Bai Jing had consumed too much vitality before. Although it was not a permanent consumption, Bai Jing still needed some time to replenish his consumed vitality. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to break through in his current incomplete state.
What's more, the 'concept of death' did not disappear, and was still constantly devouring his vitality, but Bai Jing didn't care too much.
Possessing a strength of 500,000 horsepower means that Bai Jing has finally reached the anti-gravity realm. At this level, Bai Jing can fly in the air naturally without consuming any strength. Even if he is running out of energy like when he was besieged before, it will not affect his flight.
At the same time, Bai Jing was doing one thing.
Use the power of the magnetic field to restrain the karmic fire around you, and use the effect of the 'magnetic field sky lock' to seal the karmic fire in your strongest heart!
"In this way, we can cut off the perception of the outside world. With the ability of my magnetic field lock, even those who can activate the karmic fire ability will not be able to determine where the karmic fire is burning."
Bai Jing covered his chest, feeling the waves of pain coming from his heart, and smiled.
The burning of this condensed karma fire could indeed bring him severe pain, while also reducing the recovery of his power flow and constantly devouring his vitality. Bai Jing's inability to break through 500,000 horsepower was also related to this karma fire.
But apart from these disadvantages, the existence of this karmic fire also has a 'benefit'.
Bai Jing's heart was getting stronger as it was burned by the karmic fire. Bai Jing was even "adding fuel" to the karmic fire, using the power of the magnetic field to make the karmic fire stronger and more terrifying!
Hey.
Because in this way, Bai Jing's heart, which is like a nuclear reactor, will evolve under the burning of the hellish fire, becoming even more terrifying and more powerful!
Bai Jing had a feeling that after the karmic fire dissipated, nothing in this world would be able to destroy his heart. Even without any magnetic field protection, his heart would become the strongest substance in the world and the most indestructible existence!
The heart will not be his weak point.
The strength of his heart will also make his power flow stronger, and his power flow will be unprecedentedly terrifying.
Although this makes it difficult to break through the magnetic field force, for a strong person, magnetic field force, complete realm, and force flow are all equally important. How could Bai Jing give up on this rare method of cultivating force flow?
How could he let the karmic fire dissipate so easily?
Burn it!
Just like forging iron, the karmic fire formed by sins trained his heart to be extremely powerful and terrifying! And the next time this heart beats stronger and faster, his power will leak out terribly, letting his opponents and enemies truly understand how strong he is!
After doing all this, Bai Jing continued to use the power of the magnetic field to do one thing, to "heal" Yu Nian's broken body, which was extremely simple for Bai Jing.
Yu Nian moved his hands and feet slightly, looked at the newly grown white and tender arms and clenched his fists slightly: "Well, it seems that I feel the benefits of a telekinetic body. Although it is relatively stronger than ordinary people, it is still within the limit. I am afraid that even heavy firearms will be difficult to resist. The body seems too weak."
"Well, maybe when your ability evolves to the limit, you will be able to switch between physical body and telekinesis freely." Bai Jing said, "But before that, it is more in line with aesthetics to have a real physical body."
"Really? Whose aesthetic does it suit?"
Yunian smiled, but she also confirmed what Bai Jing said. Even Yunian felt that she looked a little "scary" before. Even though most of her body disappeared, she was still able to move freely, with blood flowing in her transparent blood vessels. To others, this situation was like something out of a horror movie. Even Yunian herself felt a little creepy when she looked at her transparent arm made of telekinesis and the blood flowing in it.
Fortunately, everything is back to normal now.
"My aesthetic." Bai Jing nodded and held Yunian in his arms: "Now we have fully recovered, but before the situation was really clarified, Academy City fell into Irina's hands."
"It doesn't matter. I don't really care about it anyway. I just wanted to give them a stable place to live and not have to live in those research institutes. Everyone is vulnerable when they are children, no matter how powerful their abilities are."
Yu Nian pondered and said, "If it weren't for you, would I have been able to get to where I am now? Would I have already lost myself?"
“I just didn’t expect the times to change so quickly.”
"Um"
In the 106th year of the New Era, one could still say "Give those with special abilities a home."
And now, when the time has come to the year 118, it is those powerless people who are asking, "Can you give us a stable land?"
In just over a decade, the times have changed dramatically, and people with super powers are appearing at an increasingly rapid rate. Bai Jing is not even sure how many of the people born in these years will have no super powers at all when they grow up?
Especially after the battle between White Mirror and Harvey Walker, accompanied by the death of the world's strongest man, the disappearance of the new world's strongest White Mirror, and the "natural disasters" that swept across the world and are still occurring today.
The world has changed dramatically.
Huge waves hundreds of meters high continue to hit the coastlines of various countries, and earthquakes and volcanic eruptions occur frequently.
The number of people affected exceeds billions, and rescue becomes extremely difficult or even impossible.
At the same time, many "ambitious people" also appeared. They began to use the power of people with special abilities to achieve their own "ambitions".
Some of these people are people with special abilities, and some are their parents, relatives, and friends. They use their understanding of the people with special abilities to drive them to fight for them and kill for their ideals.
Chaos is inevitable. Even the three poles of the world find it difficult to respond in time under such circumstances. At best, they can rely on the people with special abilities gathered over the past decade or so and technological weapons to barely maintain a certain order.
The social order has seriously collapsed, and the number of people who died in man-made disasters is probably more than that in natural disasters. As for Academy City, it is now a paradise because of the existence of the Sanctuary.
Perhaps it will also be the source of disaster that will lead the world into further chaos in the future.
Regret?
No.
Even if Bai Jing were to choose again, he would still do the same.
Some battles have to be fought, but the pain still exists, still exists.
But now that the karmic fire was forging his heart, Bai Jing didn't know whether the pain he felt was due to the world's current tragedy or the power of the karmic fire.
No matter what, Bai Jing now has the power to control his emotions, so he will not lose his composure because of this.
He will only do what he should do according to his own thoughts and reason. It may not be so correct, but it is definitely what he wants to do.
