Chapter 390: Planning: Part 1
At the Miga border .
“Run! Run!”
Two white figures were running in the rain at night . Their speed was far beyond ordinary humans could achieve . It was just unimaginably quick .
The black mud in this primitive land had turned solid, trampled by the migrating herd of bison . But the two white figures had left behind a trail of deep footsteps as they ran .
Dark-green dark energy was burning on their body . The leading figure was a woman with a pair of fox ears on her head and a big wagging white tail behind her . More importantly, however, was what the little girl was carrying .
The girl was a few years old . Her face was ugly as if a fire had burned half of her face . But the dress she wore was expensive, not to mention the jewelry . She could be from some wealthy family .
“Mom, let me down . It’s okay . You’re not going to get away if you keep carrying me,” the young girl said calmly .
“Stop talking!” The woman with fox ears covered the girl’s mouth . “We’re going to make it!”
Suddenly, something formless lunged out from the dark and grabbed the woman running behind her . The woman managed to let out a horrifying scream before the unknown creature bit her in half . Her upper body crawled on the ground, struggling to pull herself forward . But it was too late .

A distorted light in the dark suddenly covered her . And in just a split second, the woman vanished, leaving behind sporadic bloodstains on the ground .
The rain was getting heavier . The fox-eared woman was shivering, but she kept going . As soon as she made it past the line of defense at the border and saw the border guards, she and her daughter would be safe . She was going to make it; she thought to herself . She had used up most of her dark energy to the point of over-exhaustion .
Her entire race had vanished . She and her daughter were the only survivors . Her husband had mysteriously disappeared as the disaster loomed . The city had fallen within days . When the palace fell into the enemy’s hands, they plunged from the clouds down to the bottom . They were the last and only hope .
“We’re almost there! We’re almost there…” The woman with fox ears looked into the distance . On the rugged mountain path, she could almost make out the glow of the psionic tower at the border . It was the light with high penetration ability produced when the core of the dark energy ignited the tower .
“Hang on there… hang on there! We’re almost there! We’re almost–” All of a sudden, something out of the dark tore the fox-eared woman’s legs apart before it disappeared .
“No!” The young girl wanted to scream, but the woman kept her hand over her mouth, not letting her utter a sound . Looking at the girl, she shook her head as blood drained from her face .
“Live… on . ” The fox-eared woman mouthed the words in silence .
The little girl trembled, wanting to scream, but she pressed her hands over her mouth herself . All she could do was watch her mother drop before her eyes . Then, some unknown creature from the dark dragged her into the void and vanished .

The little girl did not make a sound . She fell to the ground, soaked, hands still on her mouth as she looked at the spot where her mother had disappeared . After a long while, she dragged her shivering body up and ran toward the light .
She was special, so long as she did not make a sound… Her tears had mixed with the rain as they flooded down her cheeks . She could not even be sure which was which .
Lin Sheng fiddled with a colorful glass ball in his hand . The ball contained the special blood that he got from the Darkspirit General, who named the blood: Chaotic Blood .
Lin Sheng could not have agreed more . In fact, he gave up killing Darkspirit General because of this blood . He had begun the solidification of the tunnel of dark spirit summoning . It was not a difficult job . But the challenge was that the risk was high .
In Blackfeather City, a magician used to solidify the tunnel . Not long after, a powerful dark spirit on the other end of the tunnel had found it out . In the end, the magician and the magic tower became the food for the dark spirit .
Lin Sheng was not going to make the same empirical mistake . He had not only solidified the tunnel but also injected a faint amount of holy power in it . This way, when the dark spirit sensed the presence of holy power that it most hated, it would stay away from the tunnel . But someone needed to dispense holy power into the tunnel continuously to make this work . It was an impossible mission for others . But for Lin Sheng, he just needed to make some Holy Soil and sprinkled it at the tunnel entrance .
“It works very well . No one could do that except me . ” Lin Sheng sat on a chair, looking inside the quarantine cell at the square-shaped tunnel where a ring of light-blue glow was shimmering inside . This was the dark-spirit tunnel he had solidified . But right now, there was only a small gap in there; it had not been fully opened . In fact, he did not want to open it just yet because maintaining the tunnel required a lot of resources and energy . If not necessary, he would not open it up . He just needed a little gap for positioning purposes . When the need arose, he would just give it a little push and the Darkspirit Gate would swing open .

“Something must be inside the blood . The dark spirit never lies . But if I believe it and absorb things just like that, there could be some unknown problem and sequelae later . ” Lin Sheng fidgeted with the glass ball, gazing at the colorful liquid inside . “Maybe I could dilute a bit of it and see what happens . ”
He thought for a moment and then decided to go ahead with it . He knew the dark spirit would not lie; it was the nature of the race . This blood could enhance the body, which was true . But he had not figured out what kind of enhancement it was .
Lin Sheng got to his feet . He did not bother with the situation of the tunnel . Instead, he went to the research center on the other side, coming in front of a black instrument in the corner .
Very carefully, he placed the glass ball into the instrument and adjusted the operation parameters, and pressed the start button .
Soon, below the instrument, a drop of diluted colorful liquid dripped into the large culture pond underneath, creating a little splash in the gray culture liquid . After that, things returned to normal with no reactions .
“That’s it?” Lin Sheng knitted his brows .
Then, a second droplet dripped into the culture pond . This time, there was a reaction . Some tiny mildew-like driftage appeared in the culture pond . The mildew rapidly swam close to the spot where the colorful liquid had dropped .
Lin Sheng was grave as he stared at the mildew . He could feel that this mildew was no mildew at all but some kind of special, energized substance . This energized substance was rapidly disappearing into a patch of water in the center of the culture pond . In less than half a minute, white steam began to rise from the culture liquid, which was dropping rapidly .
Lin Sheng’s eyes were affixed on the entire process .
