My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 110 - 103: Burning the Spirit Within

"The biggest trouble is... It’s still Him rejecting Empowerers with soul deficiency from entering this place."

Xia Yue continued: "You don’t know what this means. Every Empowerer, after forming a stone, tries to use the stone in their heart to accommodate the soul. This means... none of the high-ranking officials at Celestial Strategy Mansion can enter.

Each time, we can only watch helplessly... To be honest, I’ve secretly tried punching that macaque once, with all my might, but it was useless."

"... "

Chen Lusi understood.

This does indeed sound quite troubling... Advanced combat power unable to enter, yet Celestial Strategy Mansion can’t ignore it, especially since Level 1 Authority seems quite strong, watching ’Self’ or remnants of the old era achieve it.

For Celestial Strategy Mansion, that’s like slow suicide.

So only ordinary members can enter.

But inside, not only do they face the threat of Legendary Class One, they also face mad dogs like ’Self’...

Meanwhile, the high-ranking officials can’t exert their strength...

Thinking about this.

He couldn’t help but shake his head. It’s truly miserable.

"Don’t worry."

Seeing Chen Lusi’s expression, Xia Yue thought he was worried and explained: "You don’t have to go in, and I won’t allow it. The third squad is stationed this year, and this situation won’t fall on your shoulders in any case.

If it were at sea, I’d offer you some advice, but those minor internal affairs, forget it. If Celestial Strategy Mansion relies forever on someone playing the savior role, it might as well be dissolved.

I’m telling you this just to let you know, so when you go to Kunlun, you can take a look.

I’ll accompany you, but I estimate it’s not just about looking, also knocking some sense into those remnants of the old era."

"Understood."

Chen Lusi nodded, then lowered his head to find the young girl still clutching his sleeve. Unable to restrain himself, he smiled and reached out to ruffle her hair, "You heard it, right? No need to leave for now."

"..."

The young girl looked up slightly, cautiously glanced at Chen Lusi, then let go of his sleeve and scampered back to Xia Yue’s side.

Seeing this, Xia Yue also smiled, then continued, "Then it’s decided. I’ll notify you when the time comes. Don’t be too tense; it’s just a matter of going. Also... since the Lu Hao incident can’t be concealed, it’s perfect to raise your level this time. As long as you’re not resigning, it’s all beneficial; adjusting salary for high-level members is easier."

"Alright, thanks."

Chen Lusi nodded.

"I should be thanking you. Otherwise, the rear would’ve been unprotected this time."

Looking at Chen Lusi, Xia Yue suddenly said, "I actually heard Lin Ying talk about you, Chen Lusi... If you don’t know what to choose, don’t know how to spend your life, you might try becoming stronger.

Not for any particular reason, just purely challenge the limits. It’s more interesting than one might imagine, trust me."

"Interesting?"

Chen Lusi was surprised to hear Xia Yue talk about personal feelings outside of work for the first time.

"Well... for example."

Xia Yue thought for a moment, stretched out his right hand.

Then...

Chen Lusi witnessed spiritual energy gathering at his right hand.

Subsequently, the spirit in his palm suddenly transformed into dense threads, shooting outwards from his right hand as the central point.

Those threads made of ethereal spirit entangled everything on the rooftop.

"Spiritual power externalization; many people don’t even know it can be done."

Xia Yue raised his right hand, as if everything was under control, laughing lightly, "Many thought it was a wild idea at the start, but now I’ve done it; the act itself is quite interesting."

Chen Lusi glanced around, somewhat shocked.

To be honest.

This was the first time he saw such exquisite control power.

"Of course, this is just my way of living; you can try to find your own reason."

Xia Yue waved his hand, retracting all the spirit-thread lines, then smiled, "Life does have many interesting things. Also... You know ’Chong’, right? Actually, I have a trump card technique, want to give it a try?"

"What?"

Chen Lusi returned to his senses, showing a curious expression.

Xia Yue explained, "’Partial Enhancement’ — you know this basic technique, right? Its principle is to use spirit to enhance part of the torso, temporarily granting oneself physical qualities beyond regular human limits. But this technique has strong limitations... You can try full-body enhancement."

"The principle is... to activate the spirit inside the body, or more accurately, burn the spirit inside, making it active not focusing on specific parts but impacting the whole body, enhancing abilities fully."

"...Not quite understand."

Chen Lusi heard this, furrowing his brows slightly, "Burning the spirit inside won’t make you catch fire?"

"Xia Panqiu had a similar thought, but you won’t catch fire; otherwise, I wouldn’t be standing here... As for not understanding, sorry, I’m not good at teaching, it’s up to you to figure out the specifics."

Xia Yue shook his head, then said, "Previously, some third squad members tried, but they said it was impossible. They even thought it was an ability attached to my Authority, but I believe it isn’t. You can try it; if not, never mind."

"On a side note, let me warn you."

"This technique is indeed useful and won’t endanger life... But it might cause partial tissue necrosis, and the aftereffects are quite strong. To put it simply — it’s very painful."

"The kind that aches in heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys."

"..."

...

Xia Yue had already left with the young girl.

Chen Lusi still stood on the rooftop, pondering the technique he mentioned.

...Burning the spirit inside.

Honestly.

This is a brand new application Chen Lusi had never conceived.

It seemed that Xia Yue was more than just formidable with Authority, he was top-notch with using spirit.

’Chong’... or First Line.

The move just displayed, fully controlled.

Also, what he said about full enhancement.

These techniques, sounded simple, yet had the essence of Grand Principle in simplicity.

"...Interesting?"

Chen Lusi slowly lifted his head, looking up at the azure sky, then raised his right hand, gently clenched his fist, shook his head, turned around ready to leave.

Might try it later.

It did sound quite interesting indeed.

... What would happen if he burns the spirit inside?

Thinking about this, Chen Lusi headed to the exit, pushed open the rooftop door.

But just as he wanted to go downstairs, taking one step forward, he looked up to find Xia Panqiu standing not far away.

"What’s up?"

Chen Lusi looked at Xia Panqiu, standing on the stairs looking like she intends to go upstairs, somewhat curious.

"I..."

Xia Panqiu stood on the last step, looked up at Chen Lusi.

Then, she lowered her head, seemingly a bit embarrassed, "I just met Xia Yue."

"Uh... and then?"

"I wanted to ask you a favor to come to my place at dusk... Is it okay?"

Chen Lusi: "..."

?

That doesn’t seem related, does it?
