Chapter 1468 A Blessing in Disguise
“Where is this place?”
Fang Qiu was puzzled.
There was no such place in his impression.
Moreover…
In the surrounding scorched war zone, there were many huge shelves, which looked like the structure of a skyscraper, broken everywhere.
“Never mind.”
Fang Qiu had no idea where he was, but his mind was still clear. He knew that he was severely injured and couldn’t delay.
“Let me recover my internal Qi first.”
An idea popped up into Fang Qiu’s mind.
Fang Qiu immediately sat on the ground.
Just then…
“Buzz!”
All of a sudden, there was a loud sound in the dark sky.
It was different from the last time.
No golden beam of light appeared.
However, there were streams of golden energy in the sky. From the thick clouds in the sky, streams of golden energy shot from all directions like arrows, rushing into Fang Qiu’s body.
Following the appearance of these golden energies, the sky, which was densely covered with dark clouds, seemed to have become a little brighter.
When the golden energy entered his body…
Fang Qiu had the feeling that his internal Qi started to beat.
It was just like a lit flame.
The more golden energy there was, the stronger the feeling of the flame beating in Fang Qiu’s body became.
Unknowning how long it had been…
“Buzz!”
Suddenly…
The feeling of the flame jumping disappeared, replaced by a gust of wind whistling.
Fang Qiu knew that…
His internal Qi began to run.
With the internal Qi running, a trace of golden light suddenly burst through the dark clouds in the sky, and a golden beam of light suddenly shone down from the sky, enveloping Fang Qiu.
The thick golden energy surged wildly into Fang Qiu’s body.
He was immersed in cultivation.
Fang Qiu didn’t notice at all that when the golden beam of light shone down, gusts of wild wind blew in the space where he was.
The howling wind seemed to be sweeping the charred black battlefield.
With the blowing of the wind…
The scorched ground around began to slowly return to life.
As the violent wind howled, the shattered shelves everywhere were pieced together, and the charred color faded away.
And meanwhile…
At the foot of Fang Qiu…
The shadow of the lotus flower appeared again. As the golden energy continued to pour in, the lotus flower began to materialize.
The shadow became more and more obvious.
And all around, as if having experienced a thousand years, everything returned to life. Those reassembled shelves, like a skeleton, wrapped around Fang Qiu.
If Fang Qiu opened his eyes at this time, he could definitely tell that this place was exactly in his body.
The scorched and scattered shelves on the ground were the broken bones in his body beat by Lord Virtuous.
…
In the outside world…
“Crack…”
“Crack, crack, crack…”
Li Ji, who had been guarding Fang Qiu by the bed, noticed that the interval between the cracking sounds coming from Fang Qiu’s body was quicker than before. The part of his chest that had caved in also began to recover one by one.
Seeing this…
Li Ji couldn’t help getting excited. He quickly stood up, rushed to Fang Qiu, and looked at Fang Qiu carefully.
“Boom!”
Outside the ward, a muffled thunder sounded in the air.
Li Ji hurriedly looked out of the window.
There he saw…
The originally sunny sky suddenly was filled with dark clouds in an instant. Upon closer inspection, there were actually densely packed lightning snakes swimming in the dark clouds. Occasionally, they would make a “boom” sound.
Just as Li Ji was wondering…
All of a sudden, a wave of invincible force swept over.
It was the Qi of Heaven and Earth.
An incomparably thick and strong Qi of Heaven and Earth, from all directions, directly penetrated the walls and poured into the ward, quickly infusing into Fang Qiu.
With the Qi of Heaven and Earth poured in…
In less than one minute, Fang Qiu’s sunken chest was completely healed as if he had not been injured.
Li Ji’s heart skipped a beat.
He quickly unlocked the door and walked out of the ward. He ordered, “Inform everyone not to panic whatever happens. It will be over in a while.”
Then…
He stood guard outside the door.
When Li Ji looked at Fang Qiu in the ward through the window, his eyes were full of horror.
This sort of unusual sign of nature was too terrifying!
Li Ji didn’t expect that Fang Qiu, who was almost half-dead, could cause such a strange sign of nature.
The most terrifying thing was that the Qi of Heaven and Earth, which was wildly poured into Fang Qiu’s body, was like the water rushing out of the dam when the gate was opened. Only an overmatch like Fang Qiu could withstand the impact of such Qi of Heaven and Earth. If it happened to Li Ji, Li Ji was afraid that only 10% of the Qi of heaven and earth could cause him to die.
Li Ji was utterly shocked.
But he was very delighted inwardly.
The strange natural sign in front of him at least showed that Fang Qiu had begun to recover. Fang Qiu would not die.
Just then…
“Buzz, buzz…”
A terrifying gust of wind whistled over.
Together with the dark clouds in the sky, it brought a burst of lightning and thunder.
At this very moment…
Everyone in the military base was frightened.
They knew there were wind and thunder in the desert. But now, there were wind and lightning but no rain, which made them confused.
And most importantly…
The soldiers in the base had never seen such terrifying wind or thunder. It was like a power grid covering the entire sky above the base.
They all shuddered at the sight of it.
Li Ji was also a little scared.
He hurriedly opened the door and ran back to Fang Qiu’s ward to hide.
In a room, he could at least avoid being struck in the head when the lightning strikes occurred.
…
Gale and thunderclouds lasted for over half an hour before slowly dispersed.
After all the unusual signs between heaven and earth disappeared completely, Fang Qiu finally opened his eyes.
“You’re awake?”
As soon as Fang Qiu woke up, Li Ji immediately walked over.
“You brought me back?”
Seeing Li Ji, Fang Qiu was slightly stunned. Then he quickly straightened up, turned his head, and looked around. When he found that he was in the military base, he was relieved and asked.
“Yeah.”
Li Ji nodded and said, “I called you a lot of times, but you didn’t answer. I checked your location through satellite and found that you hadn’t moved for a long time, so I hurried to look for you. Fortunately, you are right there at the border of Beijiang.
“After finding you, the doctor said that all your ribs were broken, and he didn’t think you could be saved.
“Then, I’ve been waiting here all this time.”
Hearing that…
Fang Qiu nodded knowingly, then shook his head, and said with a smile, “It’s a blessing in disguise for me.”
Fang Qiu felt the abundant internal Qi in his body.
And he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang Qiu had thought that after this severe injury, there would be some internal injuries that were difficult to heal on him. Unexpectedly, there were no internal injuries at all, and he recovered very well.
The lotus shadow in Fang Qiu’s Dantian had not formed solid, and it was still in a state of shadow, but it had been strengthened a lot.
His strength had also improved a little.
In general…
Fang Qiu was very glad about this situation.
“A blessing in disguise?”
Li Ji was stunned and then asked in surprise, “Is there anyone who can hurt you so badly in this world?”
“Of course, there is.”
Fang Qiu shook his head with a smile. He said, “There are many people in the world who are stronger than me. They are just used to keeping a low profile, and they don’t want to show up.”
“Really?”
Hearing this, Li Ji hurriedly asked, “Who did this to you? Is it your enemy?”
“It’s Nirvana!”
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes.
“Huh?”
Hearing the word “Nirvana”, Li Ji instantly darkened his face.
“It’s Lord Virtuous of the Nirvana Organization.”
Fang Qiu said, “Originally, after solving the problem of infection of mysterious substances in several major countries, I went to Zhongdong to dispense medicines to those who had been infected before and after. When I finished all this and was going to go back, I was suddenly ambushed by three second-rate forces on the way, and among them, there was not even a metahuman.
“I tried to find out who instigated them to do that, but the person behind was very vigilant. He didn’t show up at all.
“In the end, I chose to return home from the border, but I was besieged by the Nirvana Organization.
“It wasn’t until then that I found out that Nirvana Organization was the one behind all this.
“Later, I killed all those who besieged me. Then Lord Virtuous of the Nirvana Organization arrived. That person’s strength is at a level higher than mine. I was no match for him.
“Eventually, I implanted the mysterious dark material into his body and restricted his pursuit, allowing me to luckily escape.
“Back then, he should have thought that I would be dead for sure!”
Speaking of this…
Fang Qiu narrowed his eyes, and a cold light appeared in his eyes.
He knew that…
Fang Qiu was no match for Lord Virtuous currently, but the next time they met, he would not be in such a sorry state.
If they fought again, it was hard to tell who would die.
“So that’s how it was.”
After hearing the whole story, Li Ji nodded knowingly and said, “That makes sense. Crowning Lord, one of the three lords of Nirvana, was killed by you. So you sort of forced Lord Virtuous to show up. No wonder Lord Virtuous has a strong killing intent toward you. You have to be more careful in the future. If you can’t defeat him, don’t fight him head-on. Remember, you have us and the Sword Sect to back you up.”
“He couldn’t kill me this time, and he won’t get a second chance.”
Fang Qiu snorted, then he looked at Li Ji and asked, “What did you call me for?”
“Phew…” Li Ji let out a long breath.
He shook his head and said, “Murica broke their promise!”
“What’s the matter?”
Fang Qiu was stunned.
“After we gave them the prescription, they went back on their word. They denied all the conditions they had agreed to before. They also sent people to the ocean to occupy the two underwater mines that they promised us to mine.”
The more Li Ji spoke, the gloomier his face became.
“I’ll go!”
Fang Qiu immediately understood that the most important thing now was to fight for the two underwater mineral resources.
“I was going to trouble you to go there before.”
Li Ji smiled and said, “But you’ve just recovered from your severe injury. Don’t worry about it. I’ll report it to the higher-ups and find a new way to solve it. You should rest for a few more days.”
“No need for that.”
Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “I’ve fully recovered. I don’t need to rest. Leave this matter to me. With my reputation among the underground forces. I can deter them if I go there.”
