Chapter 426: Chapter 210: Cultivating Core Chapter 426: Chapter 210: Cultivating Core Beneath the ground of St. Peter's Basilica, next to the room where the amnesiac young man had risen from the coffin, there was a very secret room. This room was also completely sealed off, with no entrance or exit. Inside the room were a few pieces of furniture so decayed they were rotting, covered everywhere with spiderwebs.

Beyond that, in the center of the room, there was a tall stone altar for offerings, with a greatsword that no longer showed its color embedded in a boulder in front of it. Behind this greatsword, a person sat cross-legged. His head hung low, making it impossible to discern his face. He was motionless, his body extremely emaciated, resembling a layer of human skin draped over a skeleton, the muscle tissue under the skin all but disappeared. His exposed fingernails were very long, and his hair nearly touched the ground.

The amnesiac young man had just left St. Peter's Basilica when the skeletal-like body's fingertips suddenly twitched, and a series of “crack crack” sounds emanated from his bones, followed by his body slowly straightening out from its hunchbacked position. The head that had been drooping also lifted up, and his tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, revealing a faint white light swirling within.

Then, the air in the stone chamber began to move in a strange manner. As the airflow brushed past the person's body, weird changes occurred. The layer of skin on his body inflated rapidly like a balloon being filled with air, and muscular tissues began to re-emerge beneath the skin. In just a short time, the person who had looked nearly skeletal had transformed into a very robust middle-aged Caucasian man.

This middle-aged Caucasian man seemed to have been resurrected. He gained strength, his skin became lustrous, and his face showed vitality. Gradually, he appeared no different from an ordinary human. Then the light in his eyes flickered, and he suddenly stood up, only to find his clothes in tatters, completely decayed. With his clothes gone, he was stark naked. But he paid no attention to his nudity and reached out to grasp the greatsword embedded in the stone, pulling it out with force.

As soon as the greatsword was removed from the stone, the entirety of the Vatican shook as if a high-magnitude earthquake had occurred, the ground trembling rapidly. The unexpected disturbance terrified the Vatican personnel above who were dealing with the ruins of the Vatican Museum.

With the greatsword in hand, the middle-aged Caucasian man showed a satisfied expression on his face. He let out a long howl and struck the walls of the stone chamber with his greatsword, creating a huge crack that led directly to St. Peter's Basilica above. Without any hesitation, the man climbed through the crack and quickly reached St. Peter's Basilica above.

The middle-aged Caucasian man stood inside the basilica, indifferent to its arrangement. He looked at the clergyman on the ground, who had been drained of essence and turned into a human skin, and sensing the lingering presence in the air, he scoffed, “Demon, I never thought you would truly resurrect. But it matters not. As long as I am here, I will not let you go. I will definitely send you back to the depths of Hell.”

No sooner had his words fallen than the man and his greatsword slowly faded from view, disappearing eerily into thin air, leaving no trace behind…

Yan Fei controlled the Drone, which had recovered to its peak combat power, to hasten back the way he came. Perhaps it was because his streak of bad luck had already run its course earlier, but his return to China was surprisingly smooth, without any setbacks, not wasting a single Energy Point. So even though the journey back to China was a bit longer, by the time Yan Fei reached the waters off the coast of Shanghai, the Drone still had a small amount of residual Energy Points left, just enough for it to hide in the ocean trench outside Shanghai.

It was precisely noon in Shanghai's local time, and under the broad daylight, it was not suitable for Yan Fei to land from the sea. So, Yan Fei hid inside the Drone, had a hearty meal, took a nap, and waited until nightfall before he silently approached the Shanghai Beach and returned to the city area. Then, utilizing the convenience of his identity, he quietly returned to his home at the top floor of Dream Tower.

What Yan Fei did not expect was that when he reached the 45th floor of Dream Tower, he found his Security Chief, Nie Sanfeng, standing outside his apartment.

Upon seeing Yan Fei coming up, Nie Sanfeng's expression changed slightly and he said, “Boss, someone wants to visit you, but I thought you weren't feeling well, so I didn't let that person come up here.”

Yan Fei knew full well that Nie Sanfeng was the most competent Security Expert. The security equipment he purchased covered the whole Dream Tower. There was nothing happening inside the building that Nie Sanfeng wouldn't know about. Therefore, Nie Sanfeng must already be aware of Yan Fei's surreptitious departure from Dream Tower. No matter how Yan Fei used the convenience of his identity to disguise it, he couldn't fool Nie Sanfeng's eyes. Nie Sanfeng standing in front of Yan Fei's door probably meant that he sensed something was amiss but out of respect for positions, he didn't directly check Yan Fei's home.

Although Nie Sanfeng was a big man, he was very delicate in his thoughts. He didn't know why his boss had left, but he was aware that it must be his boss's secret. Having discovered this secret, all he could do was to stand there, barring others from meeting Yan Fei, thus keeping his boss's secret safe. And when someone wanted to see Yan Fei during that time, Nie Sanfeng would tell them that Yan Fei was not feeling well and stopped them from coming up, buying time for Yan Fei.
