Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 580: Seizing
As the moist feeling sank into the body, it spread to every part. Chen Chuan suddenly felt his body and mind clear, and a sense of lightness and airiness arose all over his body, and his mind also felt clear.

It was as if he had been carrying something extremely heavy before, but after taking this medicine, the weight was slightly reduced.

This feeling is very mysterious, as if both my body and spirit have been cleansed and I feel completely relaxed and comfortable.

Not only that, this is also expressed in the observation of that world. If the original exploration ahead seemed to be covered by a hazy fog and difficult to see clearly, then now it seems to be wiped a little and seems to be clearer.

However, this feeling faded away after a while. Although my self has changed as a result, it is only a slight change at present.

Chen Bitong told him that if a fighter is very strong, the amount of pure energy required will increase accordingly.

So this purity is not enough, he needs more.

So he continued to focus all his attention on the opposite side.

With the experience just now, he knew that the pure essence appeared in a flash and disappeared, and it was completely necessary to rely on the spirit to capture it.

If your spirit is strong enough, then your chances of success are high.

But just now I only saw one ray passing by, and it was lucky enough to catch it. If there were several ray passing by at the same time, I would have to choose only one.

But as long as the gap is still there, there will surely be more pure essences that will continue to fall, so there is no need to be too burdened, as that will only drag down your spirit.

After he concentrated and waited for a long time, two streams of essence suddenly appeared, one strong and one weak this time. He immediately understood that the pure essence was not the same as before, but different.

That faint wisp was so tiny compared to what he had just seen and had almost no sense of existence, so he simply ignored it and wrapped it around the full wisp of spirit. Then he tilted his neck back and swallowed it directly into his stomach.

This time when I swallowed it, it might be because of the accumulation, or it might be that this strand was stronger than the last time I took it, so the effect I felt was slightly stronger than last time.

If one compares oneself to a deep pool of water, then obtaining this pure essence is like light shining in, dyeing certain parts of the pool the color of light flow. However, only a little bit has come in now, and it is not enough to illuminate everything, so he needs to attract and absorb more, so that this brightness can shine brightly inside and out.

At the same time, on Qingding Mountain, Chu An was also searching for pure essence with all his might, but he had gained nothing after spending so much time.

Just when a trace of doubt arose in his mind, suddenly, he felt as if something was passing by, and he immediately captured it with the technique taught by the old man.

But this stream of light seemed to be as vague and ethereal as light smoke, invisible and intangible, and it almost slipped through his spirit which had not yet solidified.

Fortunately, the spiritual skills he had learned allowed him to deal with it. He managed to restrain it with a twist of his luck, and then he quickly and forcefully inhaled it. For a moment, he felt as if he had inhaled some cool air into his body, and he shuddered.

He opened his eyes and said excitedly, "Teacher, I seem to have captured the pure essence."

"Did you catch him?"

The old man nodded and said, "Pure essence was called 'Jade Pure Wine' in the old days, and it was also called 'Soul-Liu Dan'. It can harmonize the inside and outside and purify your spirit and body.

Needless to say, the spiritual benefits are great. If you accumulate them for a long time, they can also enhance your physical potential and pave the way for you to enter the next level. There are so many wonderful words that cannot fully describe them. You just need to experience them yourself."

Chu An's expression changed. Although the teacher said so much, he always felt that something was missing. There were benefits, but they didn't seem that magical.

I thought that maybe I didn't grasp the trick at the beginning, and the pure essence I took didn't seem to be much. Maybe I need more to feel it.

So he gathered his thoughts, sat up straight, emptied his mind, and continued searching.

But in the following time, he didn't seem to have the same luck as the first time, and he didn't get anything for a long time.

The old man was a little surprised when he saw that he still didn't react. "Why, you haven't sensed it yet?"

Chu An nodded.

"It shouldn't be."

Chu An hesitated for a moment, "It is also possible that it was missed and the students failed to capture it in time."

The old man nodded slowly, this is very possible.

It is very likely that his disciple's spiritual cultivation is relatively shallow, causing a lot of pure essence to leak through.

The reason why he, as a disciple, can feel these things now is thanks to the fact that the mother shrimp split and reproduced, which led to the opening of the Heavenly Gate. However, in terms of real strength and foundation, it is still insufficient.

If one's spiritual practice has reached perfection, especially when one has reached the level of spiritual perception, then there is no need for any skills at all. At this moment, one only needs to pay a little attention to easily capture the pure essence.

In fact, using pure essence at that time would be more effective and would have a greater impact on self-improvement, because if one is not energetic enough, the essence of pure essence may not be fully absorbed.

But pure substance is quite rare. Apart from distribution from above or certain channels in the fusion area, there is almost no channel to obtain it.

So now it is not a question of whether it is suitable or not, but first of all, the question of whether it exists or not. Once an opportunity arises, one must find a way to get it. He thought about it and decided to let it go. Fortunately, no one should be competing with him now. If he finds it, it will be his. Besides, it may be because the rift has just been torn open and there should not be much pure essence coming out.

He raised his wrist to check his watch. It was now 6:17. Judging from the current situation, the opening of the Heavenly Gate would most likely last until tomorrow, so they still had plenty of time.

At the same time, on the east coast of the central city, several airships passed through the high-rise buildings in the central city and flew towards the Ferris Wheel Company in Yinglu District.

In the sky, large clouds of insects were dispersed and danced towards the target in dense crowds. The buzzing sound was drowned out by the sound of the propeller blades.

At the same time, hundreds of ground response forces, led by advanced armed vehicles, were marching along the streets. Looking down from the sky, they formed an encirclement of the entire protruding peninsula.

This is most of the mobile force that the Management Bureau, the Defense Department, and the Government Affairs Office can currently provide, including several fighters who are approaching the third limit.

Xu Chan led the command team to the top floor of a temporarily requisitioned tall building. He took a few steps, came to the edge of the floor, and looked across.

The first thing that comes into view is the huge Ferris wheel, followed by the Ferris Wheel Company Building standing there. The top of the building has old-fashioned foreign-style eaves. The whole building is white, and the surface is covered with some gilded mythical beast decorations.

Because this building is right in front of the Ferris wheel, it looks like it is supporting the entire Ferris wheel.

Although it was night at this moment, because the sky gate was open, the front looked as bright as day. The bright red glow spread across the sea, interweaving with the clouds and mist. Gusts of sea breeze blew from the opposite side, blowing the clothes and hair of the people here back.

Xu Chan looked carefully for a while and saw many solid fortifications outside the Ferris Wheel Company. If not for the fact that part of the security forces inside had been wiped out and the other side did not have enough manpower stationed there, it would be really difficult to fight.

The Ferris Wheel Company also discovered the movement outside at this moment.

Guan Shangjing looked at the large troops surrounding this place. He had no idea what was happening. He immediately activated the internal emergency signal and called all the remaining company security personnel into the various defense facilities.

At the same time, he informed the board of directors of the situation and his own judgment, and asked for further instructions.

At this moment, in the internal conference hall of the Ferris Wheel Company, several directors who stayed in the company were holding a meeting.

Everyone looked extremely solemn, because the long-awaited news from the sea had finally arrived.

What they got was news that they couldn't believe: the company's fleet was defeated and almost wiped out.

One director clenched his fists and stared at his deputy, whose face was covered in sweat and despair, and said through his teeth, "Is the news true?"

The deputy quickly straightened up and responded loudly: "Report, the news is true. It was brought back by the airship that escaped. Someone also witnessed that we have a damaged Yuanshan-class battleship being chased by the airship of Canglong Company. It should be true."

There was dead silence in the conference room.

Ten years of hard work was gone in a day.

A director shouted at this time: "We haven't lost yet. We have already sent out the security forces. As long as we can seize the split body, we can still get the recognition of the Federation!"

Another director gritted his teeth and said, "This news cannot be leaked out. It must not be leaked before we seize the split body!"

The defeat of the fleet meant that they could no longer open up the sea route, and perhaps even the Linax Federation would abandon them.

"Gentlemen, there is no need to be so pessimistic."

The director who was presiding over the meeting seemed quite calm at the moment, and said, "Without us, the Linax Federation will no longer have any interests overseas, so even if we lose, they will not give up on us..."

He glanced at the directors present, "Because they have no choice but to look at us, unless they are willing to see their flank completely exposed to the Dashun government, so we just have to make sure we can get it..."

When he said this, a series of shrill alarms rang out inside the company, and everyone's face changed when they heard it.

Director Yingwei immediately contacted Guan Shangjing and asked seriously, "Manager Guan Shang, what happened?"

After a while, he raised his head under the gaze of all the directors present, and then nodded. After a while, a light curtain fell above the conference table, revealing the scene outside at the moment.

The directors present couldn't help but widen their eyes, with confusion, anger and fear in their eyes.

Looking at the airships flying in the sky and the armed men who were surrounding them in unidentified numbers, how could they not know what was happening?
Director Yingwei said in a deep voice: "The security forces we sent out should have been wiped out.

Gentlemen, it’s time to make a decision.”
