    Chapter 110: Variable Control (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

    Several months later.

    Yuan Yu City, the weather gradually becoming hot.

    In a villa district, inside a three-story red-roofed mansion.

    Within a quiet room, Fang Xing sat cross-legged. Inside his Niwan Palace (the spiritual sea within the body), the eight-armed Ox-Head Ming Wang (a wrathful deity in Buddhism) appeared ferocious, each magical artifact seeming to flow with profound and rich Dharma nature. Even the white bone skull beneath him was lifelike, resembling countless bone Buddhas.

    Soon, a guardian deity passed through the wall, arriving at the center of Fang Xing’s brow, falling into the embrace of the Ox-Head Ming Wang.

    “This ‘Mahāvajra Twin Guardian’… is considered complete, then.”

    After a moment, Fang Xing opened his eyes and muttered to himself.

    Since learning enough information, he had asked Lan Fei to prepare a villa in Yuan Yu City for him.

    Then, he came here, meditating and practicing martial arts every day, silently waiting.

    He also continuously visualized and cultivated the ‘Heavenly Mother’s Virtue and Wisdom Golden Lotus Twin Guardian Scripture,’ secretly monitoring the activities of the cultivation center.

    By now, this secret technique had achieved a small degree of success:

    【Heavenly Mother’s Virtue and Wisdom Golden Lotus Twin Guardian Scripture: 1/100 (Proficient)】

    “At the proficient level, the guardian deities visualized and cultivated are already sufficient for possession…”

    Of course, during his cultivation, Fang Xing inevitably overheard many private matters.

    For example, that Lan Fei teacher, seemingly intelligent and capable, and efficient in her work, making him love her very much.

    But in reality, she was actually a double agent!

    She not only meticulously reported his schedule to Yin Hazhen, but also seemed to have connections with another force!

    Although she thought she was hiding it well, under Fang Xing’s guardian deity, she was practically defenseless.

    “No wonder high-level cultivators become easily moody and unpredictable when they get older… Under divine consciousness, all private matters are difficult to hide, but alas, everyone has their secrets…”

    Fang Xing had many thoughts.

    Even he, about to go to university and determined to become a member of the Blue Star Federation’s high-level ranks, was currently preparing to undermine the Blue Star Federation, wasn’t he?

    Ever since knowing about the rebels’ plans, Fang Xing hadn’t reported it at all, letting things happen.

    ‘It’s just a pity… Lan Fei is quite clever and intelligent, and was a dream of the original owner…’

    Fang Xing got up and left the villa.

    Yuan Yu City suburbs.

    Inside an abandoned factory.

    Liu Wei, wearing blue work clothes, his body covered in oil stains, was dismantling a scrapped hover car.

    “You’re Liu Wei? I heard you’re in the same class as that Fang Xing? He can get third place in the Hundred Star Joint Examination, why are you so weak?”

    Another worker came closer and whispered.

    This was a secret base of the rebels; all the workers were rebels, and all had false identities.

    *Slap!*

    Liu Wei remained expressionless; the muscles in his hands bulged, and he ripped the car hood off with his bare hands: “Do people in the same class have to be equally strong?”

    Among the rebels, they were never a united front.

    Especially after Fang Xing became famous, many of the young rebels felt dissatisfied and would often challenge Liu Wei.

    To this, Liu Wei didn’t hold back, basically knocking out one kid after another with a single punch.

    Did they really think it was the rebels holding them back?

    No!

    Even if they went to school together, only a few geniuses would stand out.

    The rest could only fade into obscurity!

    ‘However, these are all things of the past. It’s unusual for them to come and provoke me today…’

    Liu Wei thought to himself, went to the back of the warehouse, and entered a basement.

    In the basement, there was mainly a large room filled with countless monitors.

    A decadent young man in a white coat was sitting in front of the monitors.

    “Liu Wei, what is it? Need a new identity to go into the city and have fun?”

    The decadent young man glanced at Liu Wei.

    “I received a message saying someone is looking for me.”

    Liu Wei raised his communicator: “Whether it’s for regulatory or safety reasons, I need you, genius.”

    “Mm, leave it to me!”

    The decadent young man, codenamed ‘Genius,’ typed rapidly on the keyboard: “Your contact request comes from the third hidden line… I’ve already encrypted it; you can try now.”

    Liu Wei nodded, and in front of Genius, dialed a number from the black market.

    After a long time, there was no response from the other side.

    “What’s… going on?” Liu Wei looked at Genius.

    “That number is anonymous black market stuff, difficult to trace… And why buy it to contact, yet don’t contact…”

    Genius frowned: “Unless the other party has already achieved their goal…”

    Liu Wei’s heart stirred.

    Could it be… him?!

    If so, that’s clever.

    Even black market communicators aren’t perfectly secure.

    ‘Next… let’s see how the other party contacts me?’

    Liu Wei thought to himself.

    Just then, ‘Genius’ said, “Huh? What’s going on today… The instructor is also assembling.”

    Soon, in the underground square, many people wearing blue work uniforms gathered.

    When they were scattered, there wasn’t much feeling, but now each one of them stood with their chests out and backs straight, their Qi and blood astonishing, almost like wolves and tigers.

    “Very good…”

    A middle-aged man with a black eye patch walked past, his gaze sweeping across the faces of each rebel member: “We’ve supported you for a thousand days, now it’s time to use you. This time, our branch is going to do something big.”

    As he spoke, the one-eyed middle-aged man projected a map, the center of which was clearly the largest cultivation center in Yuan Yu City.

    “Here…”

    He began to assign tasks, and finally asked, “Does anyone have any questions?”

    “Instructor… if we do something like this, we’ll definitely be wanted everywhere, all the Professionals on the whole planet will go crazy…”

    A young man raised his hand: “Then… how will we hide ourselves? Not to mention… the cultivation pods need a stable environment to function.”

    “Good question, but Aquila Star can’t hold us; we just need to go to a new planet, right?”

    The one-eyed instructor smiled slightly, his tone seeming to contain a hint of excitement and exhilaration: “Our rebels also have their own planet… and two space transport ships will soon arrive to take us away!”

    “Leave!”

    “Leave this cage!”

    Liu Wei seemed to be moved by the one-eyed instructor’s words, raising his arm and shouting.

    For him, Aquila Star was a cage! A cage for bio-humans!

    He couldn’t wait to go out and see the brand-new interstellar world!

    “Sigh…”

    At that moment, he seemed to hear a sigh.

    This sigh didn’t come from his side, but from his own… heart?

    “Huh?”

    On the stage, the one-eyed instructor’s remaining eye swept over, but he didn’t find anything unusual, so he could only suppress the slight suspicion in his heart.

    Villa.

    “Whew… as expected of a Martial Dao expert, with such a sharp mind… even without seeing my guardian deity, they can faintly sense it…”

    The one who had been spying at the meeting was, of course, Fang Xing.

    Or rather, the guardian deity he had condensed.

    Using its intangible nature, gathering information was quite convenient.

    “However… is it possible for a Martial Dao expert’s spiritual perception to discover it?”

    Fang Xing touched his chin, lost in thought.

    “Fortunately, I reacted quickly enough and directly ordered the guardian deity to dissipate… it’s just a matter of recondensing it anyway.”

    “Next, it’s time to get a cultivation pod, and then focus on the college entrance examination…”

    Unknowingly, it was the last semester of senior year.

    The moment that would determine the fate of countless Aquila Star examinees was approaching.

    Fang Xing looked towards a certain place, his eyes involuntarily becoming somewhat deep…

    Several days later.

    Liu Wei, wearing a mask, dressed like an ordinary construction worker, walked through Yuan Yu City.

    “Whew…”

    He looked up at the scorching sun and couldn’t help but let out a long breath: “I want to eat ice cream…”

    “Liu Wei, do your job.”

    In his ear, a man’s voice came from a miniature earpiece: “According to the plan, now… you should go to that back alley.”

    “I know…”

    Liu Wei quickly came to an alleyway and slightly lifted a manhole cover.

    Then, he nonchalantly walked away, entering a nearby shop.

    “It’s about to begin… today the cultivation center will be importing 100 cultivation pods, all the latest models, transported via ‘Kulong flying vehicles’…”

    Liu Wei waited silently in his heart.

    A few minutes later.

    He heard some commotion around him.

    A passerby was walking, suddenly slipped, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground, rolling into the manhole cover he had previously lifted.

    Below the manhole cover, an aging pipe suddenly burst, causing countless high-energy fuels to spill out…

    *Boom!*

    This small spark seemed to trigger a raging inferno!

    A stunning fire column shot into the sky, causing many residents around to scream…

    The fire column blocked the path of several flying cars.

    These flying cars collided with each other, blooming into huge fireworks in mid-air, with various alarms ringing wildly.

    Several anti-aircraft missiles were even directly launched!

    They didn’t target the flying cars, but aimed at a huge flying vehicle.

    *Boom!*

    Although a cyan light flickered on the vehicle, it was still blown away from one corner.

    The huge flying vehicle, as if losing its aim, wobbled and landed towards a certain park in the city…

    “Variable control, truly an amazing ability… my turn.”

    Liu Wei knew this was the ability of a high-level expert among the rebels, able to manipulate numerous ‘variables’, making things develop in the direction they wanted.

    Of course, using this ability required many prerequisites; the more familiar one is with the target environment, and the longer the preparation, the more likely things are to develop into the desired blueprint.

    It is said that the ultimate form of this ability is the ‘Laplace’s Demon’ which only exists in imagination. Its ability is no less than, and perhaps even surpasses, many extraterrestrial evil gods!

    Taking a deep breath, he walked to the nearby parking lot and got into a large truck carrying containers.

    “Autonomous driving has been reset, route planned…”

    ‘Genius” voice came from the speaker.

    “Let’s go!”

    Liu Wei nodded, ordered the truck to ignite and start…

    Soon, he arrived near the park.

    In the sky, mechs were fighting in mid-air, wind, fire, thunder, and lightning, and various abilities were used in turns.

    *Bang!*

    As soon as Liu Wei opened the container, several cultivation pods were thrown in: “Go!”
