Chapter 438: Mission
Something as powerful as the Mark of Destiny needed to have a sufficient core to support it.
The power that supported the operation of the Mark of Destiny was none other than the Power of Destiny.
And the source of the Power of Destiny that Chen Heng had used to operate the Mark of Destiny was none other than the portion that he had intercepted from Lu Yao's body.
This bit of Power of Destiny was not only limited in quantity, but it was also relatively troublesome to use. It was impossible to activate the Mark of Destiny for too long.
Therefore, the images that Chen Heng could see were also very limited.
In the images that he had seen before, he did not see the scene of the Five Knights fighting head-on.
The only things that he saw were only some vague images. They were not real, and he did not know how powerful the Five Knights were.
However, there was no doubt that those who were able to chase after the Golden King and were known as the legendary Five Knights were not to be underestimated. Most likely, they were people who stood at the top of this world.
If Chen Heng were to face such a person, he would probably feel a chill down his spine. Therefore, it was better to make preparations early.
Chen Heng turned around and looked at Lu Yao, who was still in a daze before leaving. He returned to his room and began to organize his thoughts seriously slowly.
"Your brother has left..."
Lu Yao stood where she was in the living room, hugging Ye Zi in her arms. However, a voice had slipped through her mind.
She subconsciously raised her head when she heard the voice. Then, she turned around and looked into the distance. Only then did she realize that Chen Heng had already left.
'Brother should have gone to rest…'
This thought flashed through her mind, and her expression gradually returned to normal. Although she still had a bitter expression on her face, it was at least much better than before.
For the next few days, Chen Heng did not leave. He just quietly stayed in his room as if he was training.
Usually, he would only come down when he was eating, as if he was busy with something. Lu Yao and her parents did not dare to disturb him. They just stayed quietly in the house.
Just like that, several days went by before Chen Heng left again. Actually, according to the initial plan, Chen Heng should still stay at home for a period of time.
After all, there was still some time before the start of the league tournament. There was no need for him to leave so quickly.
However, things are different now. It would be a miracle if he could still sit at home despite knowing the danger he would face in the future.
Hence, Fang Yuan asked him once he was back in the academy. "Why are you back so soon?"
Standing there, Fang Yuan looked at Chen Heng in surprise and couldn't help but say with a smile, "Didn't you say that you would only be back in half a month? It hasn't even been a week yet.
"There was something that I needed to deal with, so I came back early." Chen Heng nodded and said to Fang Yuan in front of him.
Of course, this was just a courtesy. In fact, the reason why Chen Heng was in such a hurry to come back was just to obtain power as soon as possible.
"It's not enough…"
After another day of work, Chen Heng finished the work on hand. As he felt the increasing power in his body, this thought flashed through his mind. A large amount of slaughter power was accumulating in his body. At this moment, it looked particularly conspicuous.
Along with Chen Heng's actions, the slaughter power began to flow into his body, merging with him as one. During this process, his body was gradually becoming stronger, rising to a higher level.
Compared to when he participated in the competition, his strength had already increased to a higher level, almost equivalent to a Second Ring Knight.
This level of strength was pretty amazing in this academy. Very few people could compare to it. However, it was still not enough.
At the very least, this level of strength was far from enough to deal with the possible dangers in the future.
"In at most a year, I will need to reach at least Fourth Ring or even Fifth Ring of strength to have the confidence to survive the dangers in the future..."
Based on his current observation, the power of the Fourth Ring and Fifth Ring on this planet should already be at its peak.
If he could reach this level in a year, he might still be able to survive under the five knight's hands.
The situation was still slightly more difficult.
However, Chen Heng's expression was still calm, and he was not too nervous.
After all, this was not his main body.
Chen Heng's original purpose of coming to this world was only to repair and strengthen his True Spirit. He wanted to use this to continue his power and strive higher.
If he did not achieve his goal in this world, even though it was a significant loss to Chen Heng, it was not a big deal.
At worst, he could just change to another world. However, if that really happened, it would be a pity.
After all, it was very rare to see such a large amount of time flowing between this world and The World of Gods. Chen Heng had experienced so many simulations, but he had only encountered this one.
If he missed it, who knew how long it would take for him to meet the next one.
'It's still too slow to just accumulate power in the slaughterhouse...'
Chen Heng pondered, and various thoughts flashed through his mind. 'Then...'
He lowered his head and took out his phone to look at its information.
There was a web address on the phone that recorded various missions that could be carried out.
This was the web address of the Black Dream Group. There were many missions of the Black Dream Group on it.
To a certain extent, executing and completing these missions was the responsibility of the sponsee. According to what Liu Rou had said before, they needed to complete a few missions as their target in a specified time.
The reason why Chen Heng wanted to participate in that league match was also because of this problem. Completing the mission would allow him to receive generous rewards.
Although Chen Heng wasn't interested in it previously, that might not be the case now. He was now much more eager to strengthen himself.
Opening the website, Chen Heng scanned it and soon found his target.
"Explore the grave of the Yellow Land?"
Looking at this mission, Chen Heng subconsciously frowned, a little confused. This mission was straightforward. It only required a familiar with strong telekinesis to explore a secret realm.
As long as they could find some information about it, they would obtain sufficient rewards.
In this world, such things were not rare. The so-called secret realm was considered a rare thing in this world, but it was something that many factions could possess.
The world naturally produced most secret realms, and a few were semi-finished products. After being modified by others, they gradually took shape.
In the ruins of this world, there were many secret realms left behind by the ancestors of the past.
The owners of these secret realms had long disappeared in the past years, but there were still some traces of the past that needed to be explored and clarified before they could be completely occupied.
In Dragon City Academy, Chen Heng had once entered the secret realm provided by the academy and cultivated telekinesis in it.
The secret realm in the Dragon City Academy seemed to have been found in a ruin and was growing.
