158: Chapter 158 Permanent Double Calculation

"It's been over half an hour."

Chen Moxuan calculated the time internally.

He had previously agreed with Lv Ling to meet up in half an hour.

However, because the number of people gathered was larger than he had imagined, Chen Moxuan deliberately slowed his pace, inevitably exceeding the agreed time.

Although he didn't need to be so rigid about the specific time, he couldn't afford to keep wasting time here.

At the current speed, it would probably take another hour or more to return to the hotel.

At this moment, the effect of his deterrence had fully manifested, and for quite some time, he had not detected any fluctuations of hostility.

It was time to leave the group and step ahead.

Thinking of this, Chen Moxuan slowly withdrew his Spiritual Sense, which had been radiating outward.

Maintaining high-intensity Spiritual Sense projection for a long time, while continuously exerting Spiritual Sense pressure, consumed a significant amount of Mental Energy.

He even had to pause the analysis of the Special Ability to conserve Mental Energy.

Now, it was time to get back on track and continue pushing forward with the Special Ability analysis.

"Huh? The recovery speed of my Mental Energy seems to have increased?"

After withdrawing his Spiritual Sense, Chen Moxuan immediately activated [All-Things Calculation] to continue analyzing the Special Ability Laws he had obtained from those criminals earlier.

Yet, at this moment, he discovered that the recovery speed of his Mental Energy had already exceeded the consumption speed of analyzing the Special Ability.

It had even more than doubled.

"Something is nourishing my Heart-Phase World, accelerating the recovery of my Mental Energy..."

Chen Moxuan's heart stirred, and he immediately focused his attention on his spiritual platform, using the method of introspection to explore his Heart-Phase World.

He saw that in the vast, boundless Heart-Phase World, strands of golden thread were continuously pouring in from the outside, quietly merging into this spiritual realm.

As Chen Moxuan focused his attention on the golden threads, they transformed from their previously faint, transparent state to become increasingly solid.

At the same time, the source of the threads became gradually clear.

Chen Moxuan was slightly startled, his footsteps involuntarily stopping, and he slowly turned his head back.

Behind him were originally Zhang Hu, the Four Heavenly Kings, and the others.

However, while the group was moving forward, they had quietly blended into the crowd.

Chen Moxuan had been focused on searching for people with hostility; although he knew the general direction of those few, he hadn't paid much attention to what they were specifically saying or doing.

At this moment, behind Chen Moxuan were unfamiliar faces.

Most of those relatively thick golden threads were emanating from these people behind him, like golden ribbons, quietly connecting him to them.

Looking further behind them, there were countless golden threads rising curlingly from above the heads of those people, all pouring into Chen Moxuan's spiritual platform.

Seeing Chen Moxuan turn around, these people hurriedly stopped and lowered their heads, their expressions full of respect.

One of them mustered the courage and asked cautiously: "Lord Chen Moxuan, do you have any instructions?"

"I'm leaving first." Chen Moxuan pointed ahead and said, "I will be at a hotel up ahead. You can continue to send my location from nearby to gain points later."

"But without my permission, you are not allowed to come in and disturb me."

"Understood. I will convey this to the various captains and the Four Heavenly Kings. It won't take long for all the believers to receive the news." The man nodded respectfully.

Captains? Believers?

Chen Moxuan knew that because he had blocked out the surrounding conversations, he was a bit out of the loop regarding what these people were saying.

With his Spiritual Sense covering a ten-kilometer radius, if he received every piece of information, he wouldn't be able to focus on capturing others' hostility.

However, vaguely, he guessed that the "believers" the man mentioned might be related to those golden threads.

He still didn't quite understand what the golden threads were.

But for now, it seemed this thing was only beneficial to him.

Originally, his main purpose in stopping the chaos was to disgust the Hero Association and ruin their event.

Also, C City was a city where he had lived for a long time; although it hadn't left him with very good memories, he ultimately didn't want to see it destroyed.

Now, this was an unexpected surprise.

Chen Moxuan had an indifferent expression as he slowly lifted his foot.

A ripple spread out from the Void Realm beneath his feet.

Under the astonished and awe-filled gaze of the crowd, he stepped onto invisible stairs one step at a time, steadily ascending into the high sky.

After reaching a certain height, he stomped hard and instantly vanished at the edge of everyone's vision, leaving behind only amazement.

It must be said that after Chen Moxuan had mastered various high-level Martial Skills and gone through the tempering of the Heart Refining Array, his temperament had undergone an earth-shattering change.

Although his face remained young, still carrying some youthful contours, his every gesture already possessed the demeanor of a Grandmaster.

To the crowd, who knew nothing and were even less aware of the Tiangang Realm, they had never seen such an otherworldly display in their daily lives.

Combined with the previous bizarre scenes and the various stories circulating in the crowd, a sense of indescribable shock and awe welled up in their hearts.

Even those who had initially only feigned piety out of concern for their own safety, solely to grab a favorable position in the front, became convinced from the bottom of their hearts after seeing this scene.

"A divine manifestation!" someone in the crowd shouted excitedly.

"Lord Chen Moxuan, please forgive my previous ignorance..."

"God, please protect me so I can survive this damned event."

Their words were filled with remorse and piety.

Although these people were used to being saved, now that they knew C City had been chosen as the venue for the Continental Carnival, they had undoubtedly been abandoned by the Transcendent authorities.

While it wouldn't cause their long-term brainwashed education to collapse immediately, a crack had already formed.

In their eyes, Chen Moxuan was a deity sent by heaven to save them from fire and water, not at all the Monster the Hero Association claimed.

For a moment, the people in the front row knelt down one after another, their foreheads pressed tightly against the ground, kowtowing in the direction where Chen Moxuan had disappeared.

And Chen Moxuan, moving rapidly through the high sky like a shooting star, clearly felt once again that more and thicker golden threads were gathering towards him.

The recovery speed of his Mental Energy had accelerated once again.

"Now, I can completely keep the double overclocking on all the time."

Chen Moxuan activated the double Overclocking Calculation to analyze the Special Ability.

The consumption speed and recovery speed of his Mental Energy had almost reached a balance.

This meant that from now on, he could keep the double overclocking on all the time!

And at this recovery speed, if he used meditation techniques, he could keep it at five times overclocking.

"Looking at it this way... perhaps before the official Continental Carnival event, I can finish analyzing all the Special Abilities I've dissected using the Divine Ability..."

Chen Moxuan roughly estimated the time spent on the analysis and continued rushing towards the hotel.

Under his full-speed advance, after just a few minutes, the hotel where Song Xin and the others were located appeared in his line of sight.
