Scarlet Research Institute.
The football field-sized Body Tempering Room was divided into several zones: strength training, evasion training, impact resistance training, and more.
At that mont, a figure darted through the evasion training matrix, swiftly dodging green light beams that shot from all directions. Sweat dripped from his body, dampening the floor.
"Test results: hits taken: 3, score: 97."
The matrix lights dimd, and the glass door slowly slid open.
After catching his breath for a mont, Feng Qi stepped out of the evasion matrix.
He then walked to the Body Tempering Room's shower area, rinsed off the sweat, and changed into a Scarlet-issued martial arts uniform. He headed to a corner of the room where a computer connected to the Scarlet Database stood.
This computer possessed the highest-level access within the Scarlet Research Institute, allowing him to view all internal data and use the institute's authority to access external information.
For example, if he wanted to learn about a particular individual, he could simply enter their na into the computer and retrieve complete information about their lineage going back eighteen generations, along with all recorded events related to them.
He could easily access even highly restricted information not available to ordinary citizens.
Rembering how his forum post had been precisely located, leading to an assassination attempt, he realized one thing:
Authority Dogs truly could do as they pleased, acting with impunity.
He often used this computer to stay inford about the outside world, especially news related to Mu Qing.
Now, sitting at the desk, he woke the screen and began reviewing the latest updates.
As he scrolled through the data, a smile spread across his face.
He learned that a major event had recently occurred in the Winterfrost Supply Zone: a Domain Field dormant for over a decade had been dispelled.
This alone wouldn't have surprised him.
But the fact that Mu Qing had dispelled the Domain Field single-handedly left him astonished.
Seeing Mu Qing finally rising to prominence, he felt genuinely happy for her and looked forward to their reunion in the future.
With this feat, Mu Qing beca an overnight sensation, a rising star on the front lines, and earned her battle group a substantial number of battle group contribution points.
However, due to the scarcity of data on the Silent Domain Field, its difficulty level remained undetermined.
Mu Qing's violent intervention had completely destroyed everything within the Silent Domain Field, making subsequent data collection impossible.
The battle group headquarters was still deliberating how many honor points to award the Snow Wolf Domain Battle Group for dispelling the Silent Domain Field.
For now, the Snow Wolf Domain Battle Group had been temporarily upgraded to a B-Class Domain Combat Team, with further evaluation pending.
As Feng Qi continued to pore over the internal files, his expression gradually grew solemn.
The docunts included a detailed analysis of the Silent Domain Field by the Snow Wolf Battle Group's analysts.
Several keywords caught his attention:
Gray mist,
Absorbing qi blood
Wraith
Mist face
The combination of these keywords instantly conjured a familiar purple-haired figure in his mind.
This fucking thing is the Lord of the Mist!
So, Mu Qing had shattered the Lord of the Mist's Domain Field?
The realization left him montarily stunned.
As he pondered, a tiline began to form in his mind, connecting the existing pieces of information and filling in many of the gaps.
For so ti, he had been pondering a question:
Why had the Tiger Soul Research Institute rejected Lin Ran's application to join the Cultivation Technique Research Group?
If the Tiger Soul Research Institute was already under the Lord of the Mist's control, they should have eagerly accepted the invitation. With Lin Ran's current influence, they could have easily launched the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice technique.
If the cultivation technique proved sufficiently effective, it would naturally spread among cultivators, further amplifying their influence.
This led him to suspect that either the Tiger Soul Research Institute was not yet under the Lord of the Mist's control, or the Lord of the Mist had not yet developed the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice technique.
These were rely conjectures, as he had no way to confirm the truth.
However, after reviewing the detailed information on the Silent Domain Field, a clear answer erged in his mind, along with a reconstructed tiline:
The tiline began with the Lord of the Mist's expansion of its Domain Field, seeking to establish a foothold in this world.
And then... nothing.
Because at that mont, it encountered Mu Qing, a fledgling domain warrior fresh out of the gate.
Wei Wei had given Feng Qi a detailed description of Mu Qing's terrifying power.
She had said that an enraged Mu Qing could effortlessly overturn the Domain Field of a Tier 3 Eerie.
The outco of their battle was obvious.
After Mu Qing shattered the Lord of the Mist's "holand," it beca a solitary domain transcendence wanderer.
As a result, the Lord of the Mist clearly changed its thod of invading this world.
Instead of a frontal assault, it adopted a stealthy infiltration strategy.
At so point in the future, it infiltrated the Tiger Soul Research Institute and seized control of its top leadership.
Finally, it possessed Lin Ran's body and launched the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice, initiating a millennia-long sche to shape the future.
Many lingering questions in Feng Qi's mind were answered as he pieced together this chain of information.
Everything was cause and effect.
Mu Qing sowed the seed of cause by dispersing the Silent Domain Field, and the Lord of the Mist's millennia-long sche was the resulting fruit.
Regardless, even without encountering Mu Qing, the Lord of the Mist's ultimate goal remained the destruction of Human Civilization and its own aggrandizent.
A flicker of excitent crossed Feng Qi's face.
He considered this intelligence invaluable.
Now, he had another thod to combat the Lord of the Mist.
Aside from having Old Wang research and decipher the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice and Lin Ran's attempt to reverse-parasitize and possess the Lord of the Mist, Feng Qi could address the problem from a practical standpoint.
For instance, he could collaborate with Mu Qing to destroy the Silent Domain Field and capture the fleeing Lord of the Mist.
By eliminating the Lord of the Mist at its source, the catastrophic Flesh and Blood Sacrifice 1,500 years in the future could be averted.
However, after careful consideration, Feng Qi decided to abandon this idea, prioritizing stability in the Reality Line.
He resolved to wait.
Perhaps Lin Ran would succeed in his reverse-parasitization, gaining the Lord of the Mist's power and adding another ally in the Dream Realm.
Perhaps Old Wang would also successfully decipher the hidden dangers within the Flesh and Blood Sacrifice, granting humanity a Super Cultivation Technique.
The operation to kill the Lord of the Mist in the Reality Line could proceed once the future's trajectory was secured.
For now, the Lord of the Mist still held strategic value in Feng Qi's eyes.
After reviewing several more docunts on the Silent Domain Field, he rose from his seat and headed toward the strength training area.
Rest was for the dead.
As long as he lived, he would continue to push himself relentlessly.
When his Divine Art reached its peak, he would "erge from seclusion" and join the Dawn Army... as a re grunt.
Monts later, the muffled thud of strikes echoed once more through the training room.
Winterfrost Supply Zone.
A heavy snowfall the previous night had blocked the passage connecting the supply zone to Winterfrost City, burying the small town's streets under deep drifts.
To restore traffic as quickly as possible, maintenance workers were operating snowplows to clear roads both inside and outside the supply zone.
anwhile, at Snow Wolf Manor, the mbers of the Snow Wolf Battle Group had returned after their mission to explore the Silent Domain Field.
But this ti, many comrades would never return.
