Ch 113 – Buying A Car Again

“Just some personal matters.” Lei Yu replied with a smile at Hu Xin Er who was sitting in the front passenger seat.

“How long will you be staying here? Not sure if we’ll get to see you again in the future.” Said one of the girls somewhat reluctant to part ways.

Lei Yu shrugged. “I’m not sure myself, but it might be a while.”

Returning to the hotel, Lei Yu decided he will change hotels tomorrow. If he continues hanging out with these girls, sooner or later something might happen. If there were any more “accidents,” Lei Yu wasn’t sure how he was going to explain it to Ai Er.

Taking off his clothes, Lei Yu quietly sat down cross-legged on the floor. He slowly circulated his internal energy through each meridian and veins. The way to circulate it was all according to the last few cultivating methods that were etched into his mind.

Just because Lei Yu had reached the [Detachment] stage, he wasn’t filled with the sense of satisfaction. He wanted to explore deeper into the profoundness of his abilities since there’s no way that cultivators can only achieve the Sixth Order rank right? If a cultivator reaches the peak of the Sixth Order and breaks through, then what would happen? During the time he spent cultivating, this was the point that Lei Yu was most curious about. A human’s potential should be limitless, yet not everyone is able to dig out that potential. Lei Yu was hoping that as he reaches his peak in cultivation, he will be able to dig out that potential and create something unimaginable.

Ever since he came back to life, Lei Yu felt empty inside his body like it was missing a lot of things, and missing something he could rely on. He was only left with his own internal energy circulating around the body. That green energy that once circulated around as protection was hiding somewhere; it never had an inkling of wanting to come out at all. As for the yellow energy of the Spiritual Bead of Longevity, its power naturally disappeared without a trace. Suddenly losing two treasures that were crucial in his own cultivation, Lei Yu’s progression rate of cultivation had definitely slowed down. He also had to be extra cautious now too.

He couldn’t be reckless like before, not caring if his veins were damaged or not. Right now he didn’t have anything to help him repair them so if for some reason he caused damaged to his internal body, then it will take a long time for it to recover.

Lei Yu was breathing steadily. Breathing out the turbid air from his abdominal cavity, and gradually entering into a state of calmness.

After reaching the [Detachment] stage, Lei Yu’s internal energy was not circulating around in a tyrannical manner like before, and it was easier to control now. Each time his internal energy finished a full cycle, Lei Yu was able to clearly feel that his own physique was continually being improved on. He was becoming more powerful than before; his meridians and bone structure was also becoming more resilient.

As always, Lei Yu avoided the piece of jade resting against his chest. It was now different from the past; when the Spiritual Bead of Longevity was still inside his body, he still had to think long and hard before entering it to absorb the moonlight’s essence. Now that he didn’t even have that bead, someone can threaten to beat him to death and he still won’t enter the pendant. Having already reached the strength of a Sixth Order Warrior, if he wasn’t careful and failed miserably inside the pendant, his crying will only fall on deaf ears.

From the beginning, it was merely physical strength to load bearing strength, then to attacking power. Now Lei Yu’s lightning power allowed him to release it outside of his body into a physical state. Lei Yu’s improvement was extraordinary which everyone could obviously see.

After a night of cultivation, Lei Yu slowly opened his eyes. Recently Lei Yu had felt somewhat uncomfortable because after he finished cultivating, it wasn’t like before where his whole body would be covered in impurities. We’re not saying Lei Yu was a masochist and enjoyed being tortured with stench; it’s just that after releasing those impurities would make him feel like he was floating on air. The sudden disappearance of the treasure that could clear impurities made Lei Yu not get accustomed to it. And he suddenly loss two types of abilities, which made Lei Yu hate Hasegawa even more. These were ultimate treasures that benefited Lei Yu’s cultivation greatly and having them simply disappear like this, his heart ached painfully.

Out of habit, he went to wash up and put on a set of clean clothes. Lei Yu intended to go out and look around New York City so he could familiarize himself here.

Lei Yu wasn’t sure if the target he was searching for was hiding in this city, but every city should have the presence of cultivators or practitioners about. With those people’s help, Lei Yu should more or less be able to find some clues.

While in the Kou country, he had already found out that Hasegawa was connected to some research base here in the U.S. Regarding mutants, Black Panther had already given him some information on them. When Black Panther was injected with the H series mutagen, it was actually co-developed by researchers from the U.S. As long as he can find the American version of mutants here, then everything will be solved eventually.

Lei Yu took a taxi cab and arrived at a busy downtown area, Lower Manhattan – Wall Street. This place had a rich environment for businessmen especially for people in the financial industry who were too numerous to count. But Lei Yu was not too interested in any of this; he was thinking that arriving at a new place without a car was really inconvenient. Even if he could walk until his legs broke, he still won’t get used to this place. Therefore…

Having a soft spot for the Mercedes brand, Lei Yu chose the E series roadster¹. The included equipment of this car completely satisfied Lei Yu, and using the cash he possessed in the U.S. was more convenient than in Tenglong country. There was no need to go back and forth for currency exchange².
