Chapter 7: Metal Spheres
Children living in the mountains is a common situation and is not considered anything unusual
The ancient city of Yanjing has resolved the issue of traffic congestion after entering the new era
However, Chu Yu's situation is somewhat特殊, as his talent is exceptionally strong, to the point of being frightening. He carries the future hopes of the entire Chu family
His father, Chu Tianbei, was very happy, drank a bit more, and began to reminisce about the events of the past.
Chu Tianbei, who had a bit too much to drink, felt very guilty, saying that he did not take good care of him, which led to a genius falling before he had even had the chance to grow up
Today's taxis are quite luxurious, and riding in them is equally comfortable
At that time, this news had not yet been disseminated and was regarded as the highest secret of the Chu family
The Lin family of the Northern region is certainly not a weak family, and Lin Shimeng is far from the type to be bullied
To enable children to grow, they must learn to face challenges independently. They need to learn to survive like wolves in order to establish themselves in this vast world
However, at that time, Chu Yu was not much different from a mischievous child, often running off alone into the deep mountains and forests for no particular reason
The cave is particularly deep, and Chu Yu took several hours to reach the bottom of the cave
She wants to protect him
Once, he achieved the first place in the entire school in an examination, becoming an exemplary student at that key primary school, and won awards in several national-level competitions. He received considerable praise and accolades
Anyway, when Chu Yu returned home at that time, he received a beating, and it was none other than his mother who punished him
It seems that the pressure facing Shishi is quite significant. I originally wanted to give her a surprise, but now it appears that this news must be kept from her as well
Then, a miraculous event occurred. The metallic sphere, upon coming into contact with Chu Yu's blood, rapidly absorbed it and then shrank significantly in the blink of an eye
Chu Yu calculated the time; when his father said he could not locate him, it coincided precisely with the moment he entered that cave and the period when the metallic sphere entered his forehead
However, the city of Yanjing has long been expanded to the Tenth Ring. According to the current taxi routes, if one truly wishes to leave the city, it would be a direct journey to Hebei Province.
No, that's not it. What I mean is, are you leaving the city? Where are you going? If you are leaving the city, it will take at least two hours. Moreover, there are many routes out of the city. Where exactly are you headed? South or north?
Several years had passed since that incident, and Chu Yu was already around ten years old, having been labeled a "little good-for-nothing" for several years.
Especially in the new era, the world is completely different from the past. In these deep mountains and old forests, there exist many powerful beings whose lifespans are unknown, having lived for countless years
Not long after Chu Yu returned to his family, the small ball master occupying his forehead granted him some benefits
Therefore, after Chu Yu was "disabled," all those in the Chu family who were aware of the situation suspected that Chu Yu must have encountered some mysterious and powerful magnetic field during his trip to Tunguska, which altered his body and led to his subsequent disability
Even a child, Chu Yu knew that he might have encountered a treasure
This time, her actions were actually forced by Chu Yu; his sudden confession and ultimatum left her with no way to retreat
The driver's gaze became vigilant, thinking to himself that one should not judge a book by its cover; could this young man possibly be a robber
After obtaining the Heavenly Slaying Heart Method, the young Chu Yu felt as if he had acquired a precious treasure. His cultivation progressed with remarkable efficiency, as if aided by divine intervention. In no time, he successfully opened the forty-ninth acupoint.
In fact, all these years, he has always been aware of it
The few experts from the Chu family responsible for his protection were somewhat negligent, as they actually lost track of him.
"Master, leave the city!" Chu Yu said淡淡.
It is very dry and bright here, radiating light, with a metal sphere the size of a grinding stone, half embedded in the rock layer, located in the center of the cave
Thus, Chu Yu chased after that unfortunate big tiger, pursuing it all the way into the Tunguska region of the old Russians
At last, that unfortunate tiger was finally taken down by him, but Chu Yu also got lost
Then, leaning weakly against the seat, he closed his eyes with a weary expression
At that time, although Chu Yu was only at the first stage of the Acupoint Opening Realm, his physical body was already very solid. Ordinary knives would find it difficult to harm him unless they were forcefully scraped against his body.
He cautiously walked over and reached out to touch the metal sphere, but unexpectedly, the hollow part of the sphere was extremely sharp, and it directly cut his finger.
At that time, others were still reluctant to hit him
From childhood to adulthood, at any gathering of the worldly descendants of hidden families, she has always been the one to shield herself from the wind and rain in front.
His memory returned to sixteen years ago, when his fate first underwent a turning point
However, after opening the forty-nine acupuncture points, Chu Yu's good days came to an end
Lin Shimeng glanced at it and hung up casually. However, shortly after, the phone rang again, accompanied by a message.
A person named Chu Yu walks down the street, his face not displaying any signs of disappointment or sadness, but rather furrowed brows as he contemplates.
The name of the mind technique is Slay the Heavens
The surface of this metal sphere is hollow, adorned with mysterious patterns.
If you do not wish to leave the city, you may also find a secluded place.
Thus, she could only treat Chu Yu in this manner, yet both of them understood each other too well
As Chu Yu grew older, his mind became increasingly sharp, and his memory exceptional, allowing him to effortlessly gain admission to the Department of Bioengineering at Yanjing University. At that time, Chu Yu still wanted to understand what the orb on his forehead truly was.
Open-minded, optimistic, proactive, diligent ... ! ... Never give up !
Many years later, Chu Yu even secretly used instruments to check several times, but could not find any trace of the existence of the small metal ball
However, it is regrettable that all attempts have failed
The moment Chu Yu saw the black bear, he did not hesitate at all and turned to run away
So I simply drilled straight in
In the family, he is treated like a little ancestor. If it were not for his sensible mother, he would probably have been spoiled into a lawless brat long ago
Chu Yu was so frightened that he scratched his own forehead until it bled... yet he still could not get that small ball out.
I paid the rent once, and it was the only time!
A mysterious aura still envelops it
At that time, even within the Chu family, no one knew that Chu Yu had advanced so quickly. Chu Yu also did not dare to speak of it
However, since he has already become irrelevant, naturally, there are not many people who pay attention to him
The young man is particularly handsome, and he has a pleasant appearance, not at all resembling a lunatic
Therefore, every time he enters the mountains, there will be several experts from the Chu family secretly protecting him
It swiftly pierced into his brow
Even with the various high-tech instruments he later used for covert detection, he was unable to ascertain its existence
The Chu family mostly adopts a permissive attitude towards such matters
Chu Yu is also equipped with a locator, allowing his family to find his location at the first opportunity
As long as he musters this courage, she will have the audacity to face everything with him
This waste amounts to sixteen years
Lin Shimeng sighed and pressed the answer button
Chu Yu had a serious expression on his face
At that time, he was six years old
Consider this: a six-year-old child, though bold and spirited, is ultimately still just a child
He understands Lin Shimeng too well. From the moment he held Lin Shimeng's hand, he knew that Lin Shimeng definitely had feelings for him
Lin Shimeng is, at her core, a true tigress, unafraid to tear apart anyone who has ulterior motives towards her
Therefore, there can only be one outcome, which is that the pressure Lin Shimeng is enduring has exceeded his imagination
In a critical moment, Chu Yu saw a cave and immediately dove in without hesitation
Lin Shimeng has never cared that he is a good-for-nothing
Speaking of which, over the years, he has shielded you from quite a few nuisances. What you are doing is not a big deal. However, I do not like anyone holding your hand. No matter who it is, even if it is a worthless person, it is unacceptable
Sometimes, several days pass without a trace.
Although the Chu family has entered the world, they still choose to live in seclusion in the deep mountains and forests of the north
From that moment on, Chu Yu became even more convinced that what he had obtained was a fortuitous encounter, rather than an unfortunate experience
Strangely, upon seeing the cave, that black bear actually kept its distance and turned away to leave
Chu Yu, fearing that he would be attacked again by the black bear after going outside, was also somewhat curious about what was inside the cave
The bottom of the cave is very spacious, approximately the size of a football field
On that occasion, in order to pursue a Northeast Tiger of the same level in the first stage of the breakthrough realm, he directly crossed the border into the territory of the Russians
On Lin Shimeng's exquisite face, there was a smile full of mockery, yet a glimmer of tears flashed at the corners of her eyes; with a slight exertion, she crushed her phone into pieces!
"Shishi, rest assured, this time I will definitely stand in front of you and shield you from the wind and rain!" Chu Yu took a deep breath and then hailed a taxi
The black bear stood up to a height of over ten meters, and its mere presence was enough to instill fear in anyone.
This fellow possesses immense strength; any towering ancient tree appears as fragile as if made of paper in its presence
Then, the small ball transformed directly into an invisible vertical eye, settling down at the center of Chu Yu's forehead, refusing to budge no matter what.
Like a porcelain doll, Chu Yu had not wandered in the Tungus region for long when he was targeted by a large black bear, which was at least at the fifth stage of the Acupoint Opening realm.
Lin Shimeng replied without hesitation: I will accompany him!
The driver immediately said nothing, pressed the accelerator, and the car sped out.
In that primitive forest, one cannot find the way home, leaving the entire person in a state of shock and confusion
Even knowing that saying so would hurt Chu Yu, she still spoke those words
Chu Yu looked up at the somewhat nervous driver, suddenly realizing that the driver had misunderstood. He smiled and took out two thousand yuan in cash from his wallet, saying, "This is all the cash I have. If you agree to take me out of the city, it will all be yours."
Chu Yu suddenly understood that the difficulties she faced were undoubtedly extraordinarily immense
Saying this, Lin Shimeng directly hung up the phone
Although it is said that the public order in Yanjing City is generally good, in this new era where martial artists are rampant, who can say for certain? Perhaps this individual has a peculiar preference for robbing taxi drivers
A message quickly came over from there: I want him dead
The Shitian Heart Method, however, is different; it does not require any cultivation resources and can be practiced solely with the spiritual energy present in the heavens and the earth
Later, Chu Yu was finally located by his family using satellite positioning, and due to a sudden influx of powerful figures from Huaxia crossing the border, there was a prolonged exchange of words with the official representatives of the old Russians
Having just recently entered the realm of breakthrough, his talent has directly astonished the entire Chu family of the Northern Region
I can't believe it, I have really encountered a lunatic
Very well, let me see who is putting such great pressure on her. Even if you are the heir of a great sect and a disciple of an ancient school, if you dare to bully her, I will still beat you to the point where even your mother won't recognize you
What is aloofness, what is a goddess, those are all illusions
I do not know how many years it has been here, but it remains very clean, shining brightly, and radiating dazzling light
Are you about to get off work? Don't want to run that far?" Chu Yu glanced at the sun outside, feeling a bit puzzled; it was still morning, and it should not be time for the taxi shift change yet
The taxi driver was momentarily taken aback, glancing at Chu Yu through the rearview mirror. Although he could not discern much about the outfit, he could tell that it was definitely not cheap, and it was even beyond the realm of common luxury goods
The path of cultivation has countless methods
Bestowed a heart method upon Chu Yu
Answer the phone immediately
However, during these sixteen years, Chu Yu persisted in cultivating the Shitian Heart Method, continuously striving to break through new acupoints. Although the process was arduous, his cultivation did not actually come to a halt
After that, he became "useless"
Today he finally took action, yet she hesitated
The Russians protested sternly for a while, but the Chu family did not pay any attention to it, and eventually, the matter faded away.
Yet he has never mustered this courage
Chu Yu picked up the metal sphere and was just about to examine it closely when, unexpectedly, the sphere seemed to come to life.
Lin Shimeng remained silent, not saying a word
It was said that the family used satellite positioning to search for Chu Yu, and there was a period when Chu Yu completely disappeared from the satellite tracking. This nearly scared the entire Chu family to death
However, all the known techniques require a substantial amount of resources to be effective
Fortunately, the signal was restored quickly
This indicates that the metal sphere possesses the power to shield against the search of high-tech instruments
Lin Shimeng suddenly erupted like a furiously agitated cat, shouting into the phone: "You are the useless one! Who the hell are you? Are you out of your mind? It’s none of your business who I like to hold hands with! Don’t think that just because there’s a marriage contract, you are my man! Qi Heng, listen carefully, even if you are the direct descendant of an ancient sect, even if you are the pride of heaven, I can still ignore you! What a piece of work! Damn it!" Qi Heng, listen carefully, even if you are the direct descendant of an ancient sect, even if you are the pride of heaven, I can still ignore you! What a piece of work! Damn it!
Chu Yu leaned back in his seat, pretending to doze off. Today marks the first day of a new turning point in his fate
This is not scientific
"You are doing this to protect him, right?" A young voice came from the other end of the phone, sounding somewhat immature.
There is a high possibility that it comes from her sect
After a long time, four words were finally conveyed from over there: No further examples will be provided
In addition to the guidance from his parents, especially his mother, over the years, Chu Yu has received an abundance of warmth, which has not only helped him understand the principles of being a good person but also taught him the mindset with which to face this world
Very wild in temperament
That was also the year when Chu Yu was the most carefree
Anyone who dares to mock themselves will be beaten by her to the point of crying out for their parents
After driving for a while, Chu Yu turned back to take a glance.
But how can one outrun a terrifying being that approaches the speed of sound
I did not expect the hollow edges of this metal sphere to be so sharp that a gentle touch would cut my finger
All the meridians in his body were sealed at the moment the forty-ninth acupoint was activated by a mysterious force emanating from his brow
Let Chu Yu firmly believe that there is another proof of the extraordinary nature of the ball in the center of his brow
It is necessary to allow Chu Yu to face the situation in Longcheng with ease, while not wanting to involve him in it
Saying this, Chu Yu threw the cash from behind, landing it on the passenger seat in front.
Before the seal is lifted, aside from being unable to utilize his own cultivation power, Chu Yu is actually quite outstanding in other aspects
Finally reduced to the size of a cow's eye, if not observed closely, one might not even notice that it is hollowed out. One can only discern the densely packed patterns on it, which evoke an increasingly mysterious feeling
Anyway, when Chu Yu woke up, this mental technique had appeared in his mind.
... ...
Sir, are you leaving the city? The taxi driver's tone was filled with strong doubt
