Chapter 15: The Mystery of the Fortune Cup

The dormitory in the school was obviously not suitable for testing the role of the ancestral jade pendant, if there was really any vision, it would be too easy to arouse suspicion when he was in Rongcheng University, so Chen Gong still left the school and came to the place where he practiced last time.

The advantages here have been well verified in the last fateful cup episode, except for the slight abundance of aura, there is no place for people to gather around, as long as it is night, it is basically a relatively safe place.

Chen Gong was not in a hurry to start dealing with the life cup on his body immediately, but sat cross-legged and cultivated the Xuanshui Technique.

Except for the last fateful cup, the green light emitted had adjusted Chen Gong's body to an excellent state, so that the spiritual power in his body reached a saturation critical point, the spiritual power in Chen Gong's body had never been accumulated enough, not only that, every time he inhaled the spiritual energy and transformed it into spiritual power, the countless impurities in the spiritual energy made Chen Gong extremely uncomfortable.

When cultivating, time always flies quickly, and after a few hours, there is no one active in the entire riverside park within the range of Chen Gong's spiritual sense, and at this time Chen Gong knows that it is almost time to act.

took out the half of the ancestral jade pendant given by his grandfather, except for the feeling of warmth in his hand, he couldn't see anything special at all, if it weren't for the fact that its appearance was exactly the same as the one on his chest, it was simply two components of a whole jade pendant, and Chen Gong would not have paid any attention to it.

Trying to input some spiritual power, the jade pendant didn't react at all, but it was amazing that this half of the jade pendant could completely accommodate its spiritual power. Then Chen Gong put half of the jade pendant next to the half of his chest, but there was no reaction.

Next, Chen Gong tried several methods, but none of them provoked any reaction from Yu Pei, which made Chen Gong have to frown and think.

According to Chen Qiao's memory, this half of the jade pendant on his chest needs specific blood to be activated, if it is really such a coincidence, Chen Qiao must have something to do with the ancestors of his family, and these two half jade pendants may need the blood of his own family's descendants to stimulate their true functions.

But using blood to excite is the last method that has to be forced, not that Chen Gong doubts whether this method works, but that this method is not under his control at all, in case there are any bad consequences, I am afraid that he will not be able to deal with it at all.

It's just that the increasingly severe cold feeling in his chest made Chen Gong realize that he couldn't delay any longer, and from the half of the jade pendant inserted in his chest, he could see that some blue fine lines had extended to the vicinity of his heart, and if he continued, he was afraid that it would be an end with the Fortune Cup.

After a slight hesitation, Chen Gong finally bit his index finger, and a drop of blood dripped directly onto the half of the ancestral jade pendant.

Immediately, the half of the jade pendant reacted, but it was different from the blue light emitted by the half of the jade pendant on the chest, and the half of the jade pendant emitted was a dazzling red light.

It's just that the two jade pendants that were faintly attracted by two and two before, but now they are actually repulsed, just when Chen Gong was about to forcibly put the half of the jade pendant in his hand close to his chest, the jade pendant on his chest suddenly emitted a blue light, and he stubbornly resisted the other half.

At this time, Chen Gong, who had been paying attention to the situation in his body, found that the blue lines that had spread to the vicinity of his heart actually began to fade, just like the blue jade pendant was shrinking its strength and preparing to deal with the red jade pendant in his hand.

Chen Gong was overjoyed in his heart, and he increased the blood delivery in his hands, wanting to make the red light jade pendant more powerful and closer to each other. However, soon Chen Gong was surprised to find that it was not only his body that had improved the situation, but also the human-shaped life cup on his chest, which had lost the full strength of the blue light jade pendant, and the humanoid life cup began to move again, and the whole body was covered with a faint layer of green light, although it was not obvious, but Chen Gong felt that the spiritual power of his whole body seemed to have encountered a vortex and was absorbed by the life cup.

The natal cup, which had been nourished by Chen Gong's spiritual power, gradually regained its vitality, and as if out of instinct, it began to squirm towards Chen Gong's heart again.

At this time, the blue light jade pendant was like encountering a natural enemy, and he had been concentrating on fighting against the red light jade pendant in Chen Gong's hand, and he didn't react to the action of the life cup at all.

In desperation, Chen Gong could only stop the blood supply and put away the red light jade pendant in his hand. As expected, without the interference of the red light jade pendant, the blue light jade pendant once again froze the life cup, and quickly fell silent.

It seems that his thoughts are still too naïve, and this natal cup is not so easy to deal with. After Chen Gong reached the peak of the middle stage of Qi refining, his internal perception of the body took a step further, and now Chen Gong had discovered that the outer layer of flesh that had faded before the Destiny Cup had not really disappeared, but seemed to be a root system extending from the Destiny Cup, firmly implanted in his chest.

Of course, this attempt is not without any effect, at least the increasingly serious cold qi in the body has been alleviated, and it seems that he can support it for a while longer.

And in addition to threatening one's life at all times, the benefits brought by the natal cup are also enormous. Those impure spiritual energy entering Chen Gong's body, in addition to strengthening Chen Gong's physical strength, is like those polluted air, providing oxygen that must survive, and also harming people's bodily functions.

However, this life cup doesn't know what kind of existence it is, it will absorb these impure spiritual powers, and then slowly release them through the root system formed by the invisible flesh membranes, although the amount of spiritual power released is very small, but it is extremely pure, according to Chen Gong's speculation, if he uses spells, the power of the purified spiritual power to cast spells is at least twice or more than the spiritual power before purification.

Chen Gong stood up with a wry smile, and looked at the position of the half jade pendant inserted in his chest and the deeper life cup, now he can only regard the life cup as an uncontrolled spiritual power filter, on this filter, there is half a blue jade pendant as a switch, and the remote control of this switch is half a red jade pendant in his hand.

In this world, it's really not easy to be a cultivator. Chen Gong couldn't help but sigh a little, no wonder Chen Qiao thought that he was the last cultivator, after all, relying on the impure aura cultivation was not much different from using the poisonous gas as air to breathe, and after a long time, not only would the cultivation not be able to improve, but the body would be greatly damaged.

Chen Gong is lucky, there is actually a life cup that can purify spiritual power, if there is no second life cup in this world, maybe there will not be a second cultivator.

At this time, Chen Gong suddenly had a hint of understanding, cultivators are actually very similar to people in the world, no matter what they do, they just want to live better, but this world often has helpless changes. Secular people only realize the importance of environmental protection until the environment around them is polluted, but cultivators do not realize the evil consequences of neglecting to merge into this world until the aura becomes thin and mixed.

Before he knew it, a long time had passed, and although it was still late, Chen Gong could sense that the sanitation workers who had gotten up early had already started their day's work.

Chen Gong finished his night of cultivation and research and returned to school. Seeing that the time is only six o'clock, there is still more than an hour of free time, if it is used for cultivation, it is obviously not enough, but if it is used to read books, it is okay......

Subconsciously, Chen Gong took the book and went to the lecture hall where he saw the beautiful figure last time, although the classroom was very deserted, it was not empty, at least the beautiful back was familiar to Chen Gong.

Cold beauty Xu Xinjie!

Hearing the sound of Chen Gong entering the classroom, Xu Xinjie naturally turned her head and looked, after all, people who ran to the classroom so early to work hard, let alone summer vacation, are rare even in normal times.

It turned out to be him, Xu Xinjie actually had a feeling that it should be like this, a person who reads a world-class treatise all night, even in Xu Xinjie's opinion, is a monster, but I don't know what book he will read this time.

Chen Gong is used to sitting in the window position behind Xu Xinjie's position, so when Chen Gong estimated the time and was about to go to Hu Jianguo, he saw that Xu Xinjie also packed up his books and prepared to leave.

When passing by Chen Gong's side, Xu Xinjie still did not suppress her curiosity, and glanced at it, but found that Chen Gong was reading a book related to the purification principle of environmental protection, which was a treatise on environmental science in the field of chemistry, which was obscure and boring.

When Xu Xinjie was paying attention to the book Chen Gong was reading, Chen Gong was attracted by the unique fragrance emanating from Xu Xinjie's body. When Xu Xinjie didn't deliberately stop walking by, Chen Gong's gaze naturally fell on her sexy and slender back, and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the other party's tall and firm buttocks, which became more and more heartwarming with the swing of her thighs.

The cold beauty really lives up to its name, not only cold, but also beautiful.

As for why he likes to look at Xu Xinjie's back so much, Chen Gong doesn't care much, after all, opposites attract, solitary yin does not grow, and only yang is not born, men should be with women, yin and yang are integrated, and only then can a real balance be achieved.

Thinking of this, Chen Gong's heart moved, maybe all the two jade pendants he owned should also have some way to fuse perfectly, and the key to solving the threat of the life cup to himself should be here.

It's just that why the name of the natal cup is "fate"? There should be a reason for this. Why was it that cultivators were able to attain immortality before, but now they can't even cultivate normally? This must have something to do with the mysterious energy of spiritual power. Spiritual power is the essence of heaven and earth, but if the essence is polluted, it will also become impure, although it can also strengthen the body of the cultivator and support the cultivator's spells, but it will also harm the life of the cultivator.

The natal cup, on the other hand, is an intermediary for purifying this energy, but it is an imperfect purification device, at least, it is extremely dangerous.

It seems that Chen Qiao is looking for a life cup to solve the dilemma that cultivators can't live forever, the method is right, it's just a little late, no matter how good the medicine is, it can't cure the terminally ill patient, Chen Qiao understands this, so he chooses himself.

With this feeling in his heart, Chen Gong's footsteps on the road couldn't help but become brisk. Although the life cup and the blue light jade pendant are like two bombs that contain each other, hanging on his chest at all times, but after all, he still has a detonation controller in his hand, right?

Out of the school gate, Chen Gong ate something casually on the side of the road, looked at the time, a little more than half past seven, enough for him to go to Shangdu Garden at half past eight to give Hu Ningning a lesson.

The summer sun always wakes up early, and before eight o'clock, the fiery red sun has already dispelled a bit of mist in the sky and scattered the sun on the people who start their busy day.

As the sun rises, the whole city quickly wakes up from its silence, and the streets become more and more crowded, and gradually become noisy.

Shangdu Garden is not far from Rongcheng University, so Chen Gong chose to walk, walking slowly, for Chen Gong, it is a kind of relaxation and rest.

Chen Gong has a strong sense of time, and the appointed time will not be early or late, so he took a turn in the Shangdu Garden Community until 8:25, then took the elevator, arrived at the door of Hu Jianguo, and rang the doorbell on time at half past eight.
