As soon as she returned to Xishui Town, Tang Yue fled into her room as if escaping, and never came out again.
Even the vessel containing the Seed was later handed to Jiang Yuan through a crack in the door.
With the Crimson Flame in hand, Mo Fan had nothing to do in Hangzhou, so he set off back to Mingzhu Academy the next day.
As soon as he arrived at the academy gate, Mo Fan, who had been waiting for a long time, latched onto him.
"Jiang Yuan, you are simply not human!" Mo Fan accused loudly, his eyes filled with the resentment of a wronged wife.
"What's wrong with me?" Jiang Yuan asked expressionlessly.
Mo Fan grabbed Jiang Yuan's collar, "You told me you'd exchange a Fire Seed for a Water System Seed, and I rushed over overnight. But what happened? You actually ran off to Hangzhou to have a secret meeting with Teacher Tang Yue!"
"You're not human, damn it! You're not human!"
Mo Fan said, wiping away non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, and said fiercely, "Speak! Are you lying to me about the Fire Seed?"
"Stop, don't bark."
Jiang Yuan calmly pulled Mo Fan's hand off his collar, then looked around and said, "Let me state beforehand, I did not have a secret meeting with Teacher Tang Yue. Going to Hangzhou was for the Fire Seed. You'll know if I lied to you when you come to my dorm."
Their behavior had already attracted the attention of many passing students, and this was really not the place to take out a Seed.
The Crimson Flame was a treasure worth tens of millions, and some people would surely be jealous if they saw it. Jiang Yuan's single apartment was the most suitable place.
"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!?"
Seeing Jiang Yuan's luxurious single apartment, Mo Fan's eyes almost popped out, "Why do you have a single apartment while I have to squeeze in with others? Did you sell your ass at school?"
Mo Fan started barking again.
"If you bark again, I'll sell this Fire Seed in my hand," Jiang Yuan said, taking out a black rock box from his embrace.
It looked ordinary from the outside, but its temperature had remained constant in a fixed range since the Crimson Flame was placed inside.
It would definitely be a very good portable heater in winter.
"Is this the Fire Seed you mentioned?"
Mo Fan leaned over, wanting to reach out and open the box, but Jiang Yuan immediately stopped him, saying, "Quickly show me the Water System Seed you brought back. Don't tell me you don't know that Seeds need to be stored in special vessels."
To be honest, Mo Fan, that big illiterate, might really not know.
Jiang Yuan felt that this Water System Seed was probably going to be ruined.
From Yunmeng Marsh to Mingzhu Academy, such a long distance, the Water System Seed's spirituality would have at least dissipated most of it, and most likely, it would have directly degenerated into a common Seed.
"Haha, how could that be!" Mo Fan said, feigning nonchalance, feeling a little guilty. He really didn't know at first and planned to just carry it back on his body.
Fortunately, he met an old man who gave him an elemental vessel.
Mo Fan took out a fist-sized azure transparent crystal ball. Through it, a small ball of deep blue water could be seen constantly surging inside.
Following the old man who gave him the crystal ball, he introduced, "This Water System Seed is called Sinking Water, and it can increase the power of Water System magic by three times."
The maximum amplification multiple for a Seed is three times!
This was a top-grade Water System Seed!
Jiang Yuan was already eager to refine this Seed.
If he refined this Seed, combined with the Overclocking state, the Water System power amplification would reach six times.
This was an amplification only a Soul Seed possessed, and it was even a top-tier Soul Seed like Tyrant Barren Thunder!
Jiang Yuan handed over the black box and exchanged it for Mo Fan's crystal ball, while also introducing the Crimson Flame, "This Fire Seed is called Crimson Flame, and its amplification multiple is 2.5 times, which is slightly weaker than your Seed."
Mo Fan didn't care at all, "I heard from others that Seeds with an amplification of more than two times are already very rare, and 2.5 times is very awesome. Although it can't compare to mine, we're brothers, who's going to care!"
"Alright, I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to start refining the Crimson Flame! That crystal ball will open automatically when you touch it with Water System magic energy."
Mo Fan finished speaking and immediately began refining the Crimson Flame.
Jiang Yuan followed his instructions and touched the crystal ball with Water System magic energy, and sure enough, it opened automatically.
Strangely, the crystal ball disappeared after opening.
It should be a one-time vessel, Jiang Yuan thought, and began to absorb the Sinking Water into his body.
Unlike ordinary common water, the Sinking Water, with its deeper color, had a heavier weight, and its spirituality also appeared very stable.
As soon as it entered Jiang Yuan's body, it became still.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan activated the power of the Water System Galaxy, continuously flushing the Sinking Water within his body.
Gradually, the Sinking Water began to surge through his internal organs, and with each surge, a portion of it integrated into his body.
After nine times, it was completely refined by Jiang Yuan.
Feeling the new power of the Water System, Jiang Yuan's hands were itching.
He waited beside Mo Fan for him to finish refining.
As soon as he finished refining, Jiang Yuan pulled Mo Fan, ready to find an indoor training ground for a good spar.
"No, no, no!" Mo Fan shook his head wildly and confessed, "I already can't beat you, and now your power amplification is 0.5 times more than mine, so it's even more impossible to beat you, and you also know One Thought Star Orbit, I'm not going to seek abuse."
"Unless you let me enter the One Thought Star Orbit state again, then I'll spar with you."
Speaking of One Thought Star Orbit, Mo Fan recalled the time on the fifteenth basement floor of the Yinmao Building.
That him was in the One Thought Star Orbit state.
Casting magic was incredibly satisfying, incredibly exhilarating!
The firepower was simply outrageous!
If I can still use One Thought Star Orbit, I, Mo Fan, might not be unable to defeat Jiang Yuan!
"Sure, I'll let you use One Thought Star Orbit, no, how about I let you use One Mind Starmap?" Jiang Yuan said.
From the moment he reached the advanced level, he could use One Mind Starmap, instantly casting all advanced magic.
"Really?" Mo Fan asked in surprise.
"Really, want to spar?"
"Come on, come on, come on, today I, Mo Fan, will surely restore my glory!"
Mo Fan was full of confidence and immediately followed Jiang Yuan to the indoor training ground.
Jiang Yuan first activated the Overclocking state for himself, and then, through mental resonance, allowed Mo Fan to enter the Co-resonance state.
Mo Fan's mind moved, and the Starmap was instantly drawn.
He gasped, "Hiss, I didn't ask in Bo City, what is this ability of yours?"
"You're illiterate, you don't understand, this is the power of knowledge. When you thoroughly study magic theory, maybe you'll understand," Jiang Yuan said.
The Co-resonance state was indeed an auxiliary ability he derived from the Overclocking state through his understanding of magic theory.
In the eyes of others, this ability was extremely heaven-defying in terms of assistance.
Because Co-resonance could greatly reduce external interference on oneself, preventing magic release failure, and at the same time, it could achieve One Thought Star Orbit and even One Mind Starmap.
However, no matter how heaven-defying an auxiliary ability was, unless it reached the level of resurrection divine magic, no one would care.
