Chapter 358: Chapter 185: It Seems We’ve Encountered Something_2

After a long wait, at least for Song Xiangdong it was long. A technician came to Song Xiangdong’s side and reported urgently.

"Report, sir, the black hole’s range has indeed decreased a bit."

Upon hearing the report, Song Xiangdong’s face finally revealed a slight smile. This might be the first sincere smile he’s shown since coming to Dragon Tiger Mountain.

"It seems the things left by our ancestors are right. Your safety bureau can indeed solve problems."

Standing nearby, Fu Daoyi heard that there was progress with the black hole issue. Although it wasn’t completely resolved, everything was moving in a positive direction. His previously tense heart felt somewhat relieved, and he started to joke.

"Hmph, now you realize the might of our safety bureau?"

Song Xiangdong deliberately made a dramatic pose, lifting his head high like a victorious rooster!

Meanwhile, Lin Beichen, lying in bed, quickly fell into a deep sleep. Lin Beichen once again arrived in the "desert," but unlike before, this time there was not just the desert, but also a green oasis!

However, there was no water source in the oasis; there was only a towering tree.

The earthy yellow particles still floated in the air, but when they touched the oasis, they instantly turned into green light spots. Lin Beichen clearly felt the strong life energy emanating from these green spots.

The originally tired Lin Beichen, upon the entry of this green light, felt rejuvenated as if his fatigue instantly vanished, replaced by an incredible comfort.

The feeling was like binge-watching comics for several days and nights, then relaxing in a hot spring, and finally sleeping soundly on a big bed.

This unprecedented comfort made Lin Beichen, lying on the bed, let out a moan.

"Ah~~ Hmm~~"

"This guy!"

At this moment, Song Xiangdong was standing at Lin Beichen’s door, ready to knock, but paused in mid-air upon hearing this sound.

Song Xiangdong’s expression first showed surprise, then he smiled meaningfully.

"It seems even a cultivator can’t escape these mundane things."

Clearly, Song Xiangdong misunderstood Lin Beichen, but Lin Beichen had no way of explaining now. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

"Forget it, let’s talk tomorrow."

Originally, Song Xiangdong wanted to tell Lin Beichen that the black hole’s range indeed decreased a bit and check how Lin Beichen’s body was doing.

After all, Lin Beichen was their only reliable source now. Although he couldn’t help Lin Beichen with work, he could at least take care of Lin Beichen’s health.

"So the black hole’s attribute isn’t earth element?"

Lin Beichen, upon waking, didn’t rush out. Instead, he sat on the bed continuously thinking.

Originally, Lin Beichen thought the earthy-yellow light points represented earth element, but he was surprised when these lights turned green upon touching the oasis.

The strong life energy from these green points would clearly indicate they belong to wood element. Everyone in Dragon Country understood the significance of the Five Elements.

"Could it be because I comprehended the water element, combined with the earth element, that automatically generated the so-called wood element?"

Lin Beichen’s eyes brightened as a bold idea surfaced in his mind. He knew that the Five Elements weren’t independent entities but interrelated and mutually transformative, a concept familiar to Lin Beichen as an avid novel enthusiast.

However, Lin Beichen couldn’t be certain. What was clear is that although he hadn’t distinctly sensed the earth element, he did perceive the wood element due to the earthy-yellow light points.

"It all relates to that oasis, but how can I find it?"

In the next second, a headache-inducing question lingered in Lin Beichen’s mind — how to find the oasis in his dream.

His first thought was to seek help from the safety bureau, but he quickly dismissed this idea. Though the bureau was strong, asking them to find his dream oasis seemed somewhat absurd.

Even if he imagined himself in Song Xiangdong’s position, Song Xiangdong might not say anything aloud but would surely think Lin Beichen was crazy.

"I should go feel the black hole thoroughly."

Suddenly, Lin Beichen remembered his ability to have that dream was due to absorbing the earthy-yellow light points from the black hole. If he absorbed more of these points, he might dream of that scene again.

"But if word got out that I could cultivate by dreaming, I’d definitely be scolded."

Such a thought occurred to Lin Beichen. Naturally, he’d only keep this idea in his mind, knowing that revealing it would attract unwelcome attention.

Though Lin Beichen wasn’t afraid of trouble, he didn’t wish to invite it, especially after his parents’ kidnapping incident. He didn’t want his carelessness to endanger his family.

A dragon’s reverse scale: touch it and die! Lin Beichen’s reverse scale was his family.

"Looks like you had a good sleep last night."

Having decided to meditate near the black hole, Lin Beichen headed straight to the canteen.

Though the green light spots had restored his physical energy to the limit, the comprehension process was quite taxing, so Lin Beichen planned to eat well before his meditation. He didn’t want to faint halfway, resulting in major embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, upon entering the canteen, Lin Beichen saw Song Xiangdong looking at him with an odd expression.

A faint, playful smile lingered on Song Xiangdong’s face. Lin Beichen, bewildered, sat beside Song Xiangdong and instinctively asked what was wrong.

Seeing Lin Beichen’s sincere look, Song Xiangdong felt a bit embarrassed.

"Could he have forgotten what happened last night?"

This seemed the only plausible explanation. Otherwise, even the most thick-skinned person couldn’t stay as composed as Lin Beichen.

Thinking of this, Song Xiangdong felt some guilt. Regardless of Lin Beichen’s power, he was still a young man, and it was normal for him to have such thoughts and reactions.

Song Xiangdong felt it was wrong to joke about Lin Beichen due to such things. Reflecting on it, he realized he’d started seeing Lin Beichen as an "immortal" due to his near-immortal strength.

The reason he was so interested in this was his belief that immortals shouldn’t have regular human emotions, but now he acknowledged that Lin Beichen beside him was a real person.

"Nothing much."

Song Xiangdong quickly changed the subject, not wanting to dwell on this issue with Lin Beichen.

If Lin Beichen pursued it and he couldn’t resist spilling the truth, his image in Lin Beichen’s eyes would greatly decline.

But Lin Beichen didn’t think about it further; anyone would find it hard to believe that the safety bureau’s head was a gossiping joker.

"How’s your body after a night’s rest?"

"Recovered well. By the way, Director Song, there’s something I need to discuss with you."

Seeing Lin Beichen’s rare serious expression, Song Xiangdong put down his bowl and chopsticks, adopting a similarly serious look, gesturing for Lin Beichen to proceed.

"I hope you can let me meditate properly in front of the black hole, for an indefinite period!"

Saying this, Lin Beichen’s face showed immense determination, like he had made a serious decision.

"Even if I faint, do not take me away!"
