High Martial Arts: I Awaken a Low-Tier Martial System

Chapter 473: Chapter 293: Battle of Fate! Frenzied Devouring (Double-Length)

Jiang Ye reached out his palm, slowly approaching the fiery red vortex.

Whoosh!

The fiery red vortex seemed almost spiritual, drilling into Jiang Ye’s body the instant he got close, following his palm.

Transforming into a strand of strange energy.

Coursing up along Jiang Ye’s arm, it drilled into his sea of consciousness.

”What?!” Jiang Ye was startled.

”Don’t be afraid.” Bai Gui’s voice rang out: ”Leave it to me next.”

”Alright.” Jiang Ye nodded.

At the moment the fiery red vortex drilled into his body, Jiang Ye vaguely felt an odd sensation. It was as if something inside him was being drawn away.

”Is it my Qi fortune?”

”The Civilization Fire truly absorbs Qi fortune,” Jiang Ye’s heart shuddered.

That feeling was extremely subtle and fleeting.

If Jiang Ye hadn’t known in advance, he would have been hard-pressed to sense it, and even if he did, he’d likely not care.

The increase or decrease in Qi fortune wouldn’t bring about any direct change.

For anyone else, they wouldn’t associate that odd feeling with Qi fortune at all.

They’d most likely think it was due to their poor condition.

”Jiang Ye, you’re quite lucky.”

”I have a technique that can unravel the Qi Fortune Secret Code in this fire,” Bai Gui’s laughter filled the air.

”Such a coincidence?” Jiang Ye felt astonished.

He realized that the so-called ’Qi Fortune Secret Code’ wasn’t the kind of code he understood.

If it were, it wouldn’t be unraveled so easily.

Jiang Ye didn’t delve deeper into it, understanding it was a secret of third-level civilization, indeed beyond his comprehension.

In a certain sense.

Third-level civilization does not belong to the same dimension of life as first and second-level civilization.

”Alright.”

”I’ve unraveled the Qi Fortune Secret Code,” Bai Gui said, ”You should be able to sense it now, right?”

”Sense?” Jiang Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

Swiftly.

An indescribable feeling spread from within Jiang Ye.

”What is this?” Jiang Ye sensed it, within his sea of consciousness, a strand of strange energy existed.

Before, he couldn’t perceive this ’energy’.

”Civilization Fire?”

Jiang Ye perceived that strange energy and quickly confirmed that it was the Civilization Fire previously entered his body.

”This Civilization Fire contains a vast amount of civilization Qi fortune.”

”After unraveling the Qi Fortune Secret Code, I can draw out a small portion,” Bai Gui said, ”These Qi fortunes are being absorbed by you.”

”I am absorbing civilization Qi fortune?” Jiang Ye paused slightly.

Why couldn’t he feel it?

”Senior Bai Gui,” Jiang Ye asked repeatedly: ”Isn’t cultivation technique needed to absorb civilization Qi fortune?”

”No need.”

”Your body itself is a vessel that harbors Qi fortune, it will absorb it actively,” Bai Gui explained, ”You can’t sense it because Qi fortune is formless and intangible.”

”But in reality.”

”Just in the time we’ve been talking, your body has already absorbed a large amount of Qi fortune,” Bai Gui chuckled.

Jiang Ye was taken aback.

Because he indeed felt nothing.

”What impact does absorbing a large amount of Qi fortune have on me?” Jiang Ye inquired.

”Impact? Hard to say.”

”The influence of Qi fortune is subtle and gradual,” Bai Gui replied, ”You don’t need to delve into it; chasing it deliberately would weaken its impact.”

Jiang Ye nodded.

He knew too little about Qi fortune.

”Even if someone’s Qi Fortune goes to zero instantly, nothing significant may happen,” Bai Gui said, ”But their future will certainly be challenging, perhaps they would face a calamity and die after a few days.”

”Similarly.”

”Your Qi fortune surges, but no immediate changes will occur,” Bai Gui added, ”The effect of Qi fortune will show in your future cultivation and battles.”

”Got it,” Jiang Ye suddenly understood.

This Qi fortune truly is mysterious.

Judging from Bai Gui’s tone, it seems even she can’t completely explain it.

”Alright.”

”You’ve finished absorbing,” Bai Gui suddenly said.

”What?” Jiang Ye was stunned, ”It’s over just like that?”

It seemed slow when told.

But during his conversation with Bai Gui, only a few seconds passed.

”Didn’t you say the Civilization Fire contained a vast amount of Qi fortune?” Jiang Ye couldn’t help but ask, ”Is it done so quickly?”

”Civilization Fire itself is a vessel that absorbs Qi fortune and indeed contains a vast amount of it.”

”But the Qi Fortune Secret Code I unraveled can only draw out a tiny part,” Bai Gui said, ”Less than a ten-thousandth.”

”Of course, it’s already substantial for you.”

”If you’re not satisfied, let’s find the next Civilization Fire,” Bai Gui laughed.

Jiang Ye’s eyes lit up, ”Bai Gui, have you sensed the location of the next Civilization Fire?”

”Yes, I’ve detected something,” Bai Gui nodded.

”Great.” Jiang Ye was delighted.

At once.

Without hesitation, he turned and flew back to the edge of the cliff.

”Junior, was that the Civilization Fire just now?” Liu Shishi asked with concern, having watched Jiang Ye’s actions.

”Yes.” Jiang Ye nodded.

His mind flickered, and a fiery red vortex floated out, hovering above his palm.

”Senior, you take it,” Jiang Ye said.

”Huh?”

”For me?” Liu Shishi was stunned, then widened her beautiful eyes in surprise.

She understood the importance of the Civilization Fire.

It is an important token to enter the Divine Hall! Hard to come by, yet Jiang Ye was actually gifting it to her?

Jiang Ye saw her hesitation and moved with his mind to transfer the Civilization Fire to Liu Shishi’s hand.

”Whoosh!” The fiery vortex quickly drilled into Liu Shishi’s body.

”You?”

Liu Shishi was shocked, she wanted to decline but found she couldn’t control the Civilization Fire.

In fact, originally Jiang Ye couldn’t control it either.

It was only because Bai Gui had unraveled part of the Qi Fortune Secret Code that Jiang Ye gained some control.

”Junior, you’re too generous,” Liu Shishi said helplessly.
