Chapter 342 White Myth
At this moment, Xu Wenting's eyes inadvertently swept across the dark corner, and suddenly caught a glimpse of strange movement.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and she whispered, "Look over there." Her finger quickly pointed in that direction, "There seems to be someone over there."
Upon hearing this, Mo Yiyan immediately looked in the direction Xu Wenting pointed.
I saw a strange figure moving slowly in the shadow.
The man looked particularly strange from behind, with a bald head and skin that was an unnatural dark gray.
However, the skin of its body and arms is flesh-white, which forms a sharp contrast with the color of its head, giving people a strong sense of incongruity.
"It's this one, Scorpion Puppet Control!" Mo Yiyan's voice was filled with suppressed murderous intent.
His fists clenched tightly.
Mo Yiyan's figure rushed forward.
"Yi Yan, wait a minute!" Xu Wenting wanted to reach out and try to grab Mo Yi Yan's sleeve to stop his impulsive action.
However, his footsteps did not pause at all, and he even quickened his pace, heading towards the direction of Scorpion Puppet Control.
His speed was astonishingly fast, and he approached the strange figure at a very fast speed.
"Do you think you can escape? Scorpion Puppet Control!"
The figure seemed to be aware of Mo Yiyan's approach.
Then it accelerated suddenly, constantly shuttling back and forth in the ruins.
Xu Wenting's hands were suspended in the air: "Oh, why are you so impulsive..."
Then she raised her head and looked up at Qin Fu in the sky.
Xu Wenting was suddenly in a dilemma.
She looked at Mo Yiyan's gradually receding back, then looked at Qin Fu in the sky, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
She paced back and forth on the spot, her brows furrowed, her heart in a state of confusion.
"Should I follow Mo Yiyan and ensure his safety, or stay here and wait for Qin Fu's instructions?" Xu Wenting quickly weighed the pros and cons in her mind.
At this moment, Qin Fu's figure leaped back from the air to the ground and landed steadily beside Xu Wenting.
"what happened?"
He looked around again and found that Mo Yiyan's figure had disappeared, and the head of the Scorpion Puppet Kongchu on the ground was also nowhere to be seen.
"Where's Yiyan? Where's the head of the Scorpion Puppet, Kongchu?"
Xu Wenting's face was a little solemn. She quickly told Qin Fu everything she had just seen:
"Just now... Mo Yiyan and I were so focused on your fight that we didn't notice the movements of the Scorpion Puppet Control. It seemed that it took advantage of our distraction to secretly remove the head of a pioneer warrior's corpse, and then... connected its own head to the pioneer warrior's body."
She paused and continued:
"I suspect that Scorpion Puppet Control Chu used this method and... took the opportunity to escape? But I'm not sure if it was it? After Mo Yiyan found out, he immediately chased after it. No matter how I called him, it was useless. He only had eyes for Scorpion Puppet Control Chu and didn't listen to me at all."
"It's Scorpion Puppet Control!"
"But didn't it say that it would die without its own body? Why did it run away?"
Qin Fu shook his head:
"Not necessarily. The ability of the Scorpion Puppet Control is far more complicated than we imagined. It can temporarily save its life by connecting to other corpses, but this method cannot be maintained for a long time." He paused and continued:
"However, this method is not stable. It needs to constantly replace new corpses to maintain its life. In other words, its current state is just a temporary 'container'."
"Then...should we catch up with Mo Yiyan immediately? Will it be dangerous for him to chase after Scorpion Puppet Control alone?"
Qin Fu's eyes remained calm, and he shook his head slightly:
"Don't worry too much. The current Scorpion Puppet Control has been greatly weakened. It has lost its original body. With Mo Yiyan's strength, it is more than enough to deal with it. Let him handle it himself!"
"But..." Xu Wenting still felt a little worried.
"Don't underestimate Mo Yiyan. He hasn't shown his true strength yet. His potential is far more than this, and he will never be defeated so easily."
When Xu Wenting heard this, her eyes widened a little, and a hint of curiosity appeared on her cute face.
She tilted her head, as if she had discovered something interesting:
"Not real strength? Does that mean he will become stronger like you?"
Then, she blinked at Qin Fu:
"Did you hide some method to become stronger? Did you teach him secretly but didn't tell me?"
Qin Fu was amused by her question, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"Do you remember the color of the power ball when it awakens?"
Xu Wenting nodded quickly:
"Of course I remember. Gray, purple, orange, red, and gold correspond to the five levels: normal, elite, epic, legendary, and mythical. Each level represents a different strength."
Qin Fu nodded slightly, and then said meaningfully:
"Did you forget there's another color?"
Xu Wenting was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and tried hard to recall.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up:
"Oh, and white! Your awakening color is white!"
"So, the strongest is not the 'mythical' gold, but the white."
Xu Wenting's eyes were full of doubts, and she couldn't help but ask:
"But weren't your strength and abilities already measured when you awakened? Could it be... that there could still be changes?"
At this time, Qin Fu shook his head slightly and continued:
"Mythical-level psychics do have the opportunity to develop their abilities again, but the number of pioneer warriors who can successfully develop their abilities is one in ten thousand. This kind of advancement is completely different for each person."
Xu Wenting frowned even more tightly, her eyes full of doubt and confusion:
"What exactly does this mean? Can you explain it more clearly?"
"A mythical superpower is like a bud that is about to bloom. It already possesses great power, but its potential is far from being fully released. Only when this bud truly blooms can the superpower user usher in the one and only superpower advancement."
After hearing this, Xu Wenting showed an incredible expression.
"Really? Then how do you know that Mo Yiyan's ability will be advanced in the future? Have you already seen his potential?"
Qin Fu did not respond.
Xu Wenting sighed helplessly and said:
"You're being so secretive again...you keep everything to yourself! Humph..."
At this moment, a deafening roar suddenly came from the north of Fumeng City.
"Boom, boom, boom—"
The ground of the entire Fumeng City shook violently, the buildings groaned under the heavy weight, dust fell from the roofs, and gravel and rubble on the streets were splashed everywhere.
