Chapter 870: The Troubles of Adolescent (1)

Shen Ping ignored this sentence and continued to ask, “Then does your father have any channels to obtain this metal?”
He sent a picture to Bai Xuan’er. On it was the special metal used for the sacrificial ceremony. This metal was similar to silver and had an official name, mithril.
“I’ve seen this metal before. My father seemed to have taken this metal from home before. At the time, he repeatedly warned me not to touch it.” Shen Ping’s expression changed slightly. Mithril was a prohibited metal item in the world. If Bai Xuan’er’s father had really hidden the mithril, it clearly meant that he knew its value and even its use.
“Blockhead, do you want this metal?”
“Yes, just 20 grams.”
Mithril sacrifices mainly used mithril as a medium to carry and transmit the strange energy in the dark, so only a small amount was needed. Of course, if he continued to sacrifice, he would need a lot of mithril reserves.
Moreover, Shen Ping guessed that the mithril metal must have other uses.
Otherwise, it would not be controlled so strictly.
Bai Xuan’er hurriedly said, “Twenty grams, leave it to me. I’ll give it to you when we go to school tomorrow.”
Shen Ping couldn’t help but say, “Can you do it? It’s best not to let your father notice anything.”
Actually, even if he had noticed, he would not have taken it to heart.
Bai Xuan’er revealed a row of neat white teeth. “Don’t worry, no place in the house can hide from me.”
The two of them chatted for a while more before Bai Xuan’er reluctantly hung up the video call.
Since Bai Xuan’er still had matters to attend to, the appointment between the two of them could only be postponed for the time being.
It was almost ten o’clock when Shen Ping arrived at Qinghe University. He was not in a hurry to go to the teaching building. Instead, he walked towards the Crescent Moon Lake in the school. Surrounding him was a dense forest. It was a famous scenic spot in the school, also known as the Holy Land of Youth. Every year, countless adolescent students touched each other’s troubles here. He waited quietly while sitting on an elliptical rock by the lake. According to Captain Xiong, the viral energy carrier obtained from the mithril sacrifice was even stronger than the corrosive energy carried by the evil cultists. Even the modified warriors did not dare to obtain energy in this way.
If not for the fact that his true soul power was gradually becoming stronger, he wouldn’t use the sacrificial ritual rashly.
“If I can’t take it, I can move it out immediately.”
Shen Ping pondered. Ordinary people would not be able to withstand this corrosive ability at all. They could only passively withstand it. Therefore, sacrificial offerings were very dangerous for them.
After a while, Bai Xuan’er, who was wearing light pink hot pants, carried the latest bag to the side of the rock. She stood in front of Shen Ping. The belt at the edge of her pants met Shen Ping’s gaze. Then, she patted her satchel with a smile. “Hehe, Shen Ping, everything you want is inside.”
Shen Ping’s true spirit had already sensed the contents of the bag. There was a full strand of mithril, much more than he wanted. “Thank you, Xuan er.
Bai Xuan’er’s lips curled up. “Hmph, why are you thanking me?”
“That’s right. There’s no need.”
Shen Ping reached out and pulled her into his arms. He lowered his head and kissed her red lips. Although the other party was willing to do all this because she liked him, no matter what, Bai Xuan’er’s actions had helped Shen Ping a lot.
By all rights, she should be rewarded.
A long time passed. When Bai Xuan’er was almost out of breath, her red lips parted. She wrapped her arms around Shen Ping’s neck happily. “You’ve finally accepted me. I’m your girlfriend from now on.”
Shen Ping held Bai Xuan’er’s tight legs and smiled. “If you want to be my girlfriend, you have to be mentally prepared in the future.”
“Ready for what?”
“You’ll know.”
Bai Xuan’er coquettishly said, “Tell me quickly.”
Shen Ping patted her butt. “Alright, get up quickly. It’s time for class.”
Bai Xuan’er was speechless. She felt like she worked for nothing.
After school at noon, Bai Xuan’er invited Shen Ping to the barbeque shop again.
This time, Shen Ping agreed.
Sitting in the shop, the cool air blocked the heat outside.
“What do you want to eat? It’s on me.”
“Really?”
“Of course. I’ve made some money in the meantime.”
Bai Xuan’er smiled and said, “Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
Even so, she still ordered the cheapest. However, Shen Ping took the menu and ordered two more sets of the most expensive steak.
He returned to Nanyuan Estate early in the evening.
In the underground garage, he used his true soul power to cover his surroundings. Then, he took out the mithril strip that Bai Xuan’er had taken out. Then, he shattered the mithril into dozens of small pieces and began to draw a mysterious pattern on the ground with the mithril. This pattern was formed by the corpses of the evil cultists in the transcendent incident.
Actually, even if he used an ordinary pattern, as long as there was a mithril in the center, it would be fine. However, using mithril to outline it was the best.
Buzz! Buzz!
As the pattern was successfully outlined, Shen Ping seemed to hear ravings in his ears. They seemed to come from the bottom of his heart, but also seemed to come from space and from all directions. It was only when this sound became louder and louder that a special energy fluctuation was transmitted.
When the sound completely drowned out everything around him, this energy enveloped his body. The mithril powder and mithril on the pattern instantly shone and attached to Shen Ping’s skin in the next moment.
Boom!
A large amount of mutated energy was transmitted from the mithril to his body at an extremely fast speed, and it instantly attacked Shen Ping’s sea of consciousness.
At this moment, he immediately mobilized his true soul power to suppress this energy, but the corrosive energy continued to spread. The xenogeneic energy that was originally converted and absorbed by the virtual frame in his body was like a vortex, sucking in a large amount of the xenogeneic energy that was enveloped in his sea of consciousness.
Every second and minute felt like a hundred years or a thousand years. When all the mutated energy in his sea of consciousness disappeared, the strong corrosive feeling disappeared.
Shen Ping heaved a sigh of relief. This was the first time he had personally experienced the horror of this mental pollution energy. Fortunately, his true soul power had strengthened with his body and he had many soul methods. Otherwise, he might not have been able to suppress it just now.
Whoosh.
He could feel the mutated energy gathering in his body. He immediately trained according to the Nine Extreme Fist. Half an hour later, his bones, muscles, blood, and skin had greatly improved. If it was only exceeding the limits of the human body before, it was now considered inhuman strength.
Boom.
A casual punch caused an explosion in the air.
“As expected, the mutant energy obtained from the sacrifice is a huge transformation of the body!”
Shen Ping’s eyes flickered. The last time he came into close contact with an evil cultist, he did not absorb much mutated energy, and it was the lowest level. But now, he could clearly feel that the energy obtained from the sacrifice was much higher than that.
He opened the virtual frame. There was a change on it.
[Level 4 Divine Disciple: 1,000/100,000]
He did not expect that with just one sacrifice, he had directly crossed three levels and reached the level of a Level Four Divine Disciple.
“The level of energy obtained from the sacrifice is still not high, but I can’t withstand a higher level now. I’ll transform my body first and wait for my true soul power to be nurtured to become stronger before searching for higher-level sacrificial diagrams. In addition, I have to store more mithril! The evil cultists’ sacrificial diagram was only at the lowest level. If he wanted to obtain higher and stronger xenogeneic energy, he would need other sacrificial diagrams. However, these diagrams were very precious. Even the officials of the Transcendent Group would not easily reveal them.
He returned to the building. When his parents returned, he told them about his bonus. His parents were overjoyed and kept saying that their son had become successful.
“When this Saturday comes, I’ll take you out for a big meal.
His mother smiled and said, “There’s no need for a big meal. Just go to any restaurant. Keep the money for your future wife. The betrothal gift is not low now. Listen to me and save it.”
“All right, but we still need to eat a big feast..”
