Chapter 946: What’s Wrong with Chen Kaixin? Testing the Interdimensional Ability!

“What’s going on?”
When Kai Xin woke up in the hospital room, he sat up abruptly, his face filled with shock and disbelief. He murmured, “Has Chen Kaixin finally developed a conscience?”
But soon, Kai Xin realized it wasn’t that simple…
It seemed…
In short, it was hard to describe.
Sitting on the hospital bed and scratching his head for a while, Kai Xin suddenly remembered that when he was pulled away, he seemed to think about things over there as well, and was taken to another world an hour earlier. When he returned, it was because he was too anxious about this place…
Could it be…?
His body stiffened, and his eyes sparkled with disbelief. He felt a faint sense of anticipation, yet he couldn’t be sure!
But Chen Kaixin’s condition today was indeed very strange. And both his departure and return were extremely sudden!
“No… I have to try.”
Kai Xin glanced at Xu Yao, who was sleeping in the bed next to him, then quickly lay down, closed his eyes, and summoned images of that other world in his mind… the bedroom…
Sure enough!
After a while, that intense pulling sensation and the feeling of consciousness being enveloped by darkness came again.
When he opened his eyes, Kai Xin was filled with astonishment. He slowly got up from the ground—his decision to go to the other side had indeed been his own, and Chen Kaixin seemed truly gone, not taking control of this body, which was why his body had collapsed to the ground.
“…Ugh.”
Kai Xin fell silent…
He wasn’t sure exactly why, but it seemed Chen Kaixin had fallen into a deep sleep once again.
A faint sense of unease arose in Kai Xin’s heart. He didn’t know whether Chen Kaixin was sealed due to his own reasons or because of his actions. Moreover, he had no idea when Chen Kaixin would wake up again!
“…”
That night, Kai Xin was doomed to stay awake.
…
“Dr. Li, I have a question.”
In a daze, Kai Xin used Chen Kaixin’s body to quickly finish breakfast, then returned to his own room. Accompanied by Xu Yao, he went to the rehabilitation room and found Dr. Li.
“You seem a bit upset. Didn’t you sleep last night? Go ahead and ask your question,” Dr. Li replied after glancing at Kai Xin.
“I just want to ask, what would happen if I suddenly became a vegetative patient again in the game?” As soon as he finished speaking, Kai Xin noticed Xu Yao beside him trembling slightly, her expression changing slightly.

“…That’s an interesting question. It seems you’re worried that playing games too much might make you revert to your old state?” Dr. Li turned around with a smile and replied seriously, “But theoretically, such a thing is impossible…”
“I mean, what would happen to the patient if it did occur?”
“Hmm.”
“Actually, when a patient is in a comatose state, it’s like they’re asleep. Today’s virtual games are very safe; there’s no possibility of someone becoming comatose after playing them. But if some accident did cause this—just in case—others wouldn’t be able to notice either… Because they’re in a deep sleep, it would take some time to realize, like when bodily functions gradually lose control…”
“What about in the game?” Kaixin pressed further.
Dr. Li seemed interested as well: “I can answer that. Many players fall asleep halfway through a game, and it seems the characters in the game can maintain their current state. Many skilled gang members take advantage of this to practice mental techniques and protective skills. In ‘Jianghu,’ this isn’t a secret anymore.”
“Oh.” Kaixin’s eyes sparkled, as if relieved.
“Any other questions? If not, let’s start today’s rehabilitation treatment…”
“I’ll do the rehabilitation treatment later. Yao, help me back first.” Kaixin’s tone was urgent.
Although Xu Yao was puzzled by why Kaixin suddenly asked such strange questions today, she didn’t press further and silently led him back to the ward.
To her surprise, as soon as Kaixin returned to the ward, he lay down on the bed, picked up the gaming headset, and entered the game. Xu Yao was speechless!
But she didn’t know that once he entered the game, Kaixin quickly fell into a deep sleep—meaning he had gone to another world (how evil of me to say that).
…
Upon arriving on the other side, Kaixin hesitated for a moment before taking the gaming headset from the bedside and entering the game.
…
He was once again in the gang’s prison cell in the sub-forum. He ordered ten prisoners at the Wuwei Realm who knew martial arts to gather in one cell. Then he went to the gang’s warehouse, fetched a secret manual of protective martial arts from the Jie Duo Realm, closed the cell door again, and sat inside to practice…
All his realms were activated!
“The Immortal Body” was activated!
“Attack!”
With all his equipment removed, Kaixin stood in the center of the cell and gave orders to the group of fierce-looking prisoners around him.
The prisoners exchanged glances, not daring to delay, and attacked one after another. Powerful palm forces slammed into Kaixin!

In the fierce storm, Kai Xin stood firm, using his protective abilities and the Nine Yang Divine Skill to withstand the brutal attacks from ten people, while closely monitoring his own condition…
Under the intense and frequent attacks, the Yi Jin Jing indeed began to fluctuate rapidly, operating at a speed even greater than when he was trapped in the treasure room; the progress of his Immortal Body also accelerated significantly—after just three rounds of attacks, it advanced by two levels!
However, the three rounds of attacks from those ten experts at the Wu Wei realm still inflicted severe internal injuries on Kai Xin, with a trickle of blood slowly seeping from the corner of his mouth…
“Continue!”
The Nine Yang Divine Skill could only serve as automatic protection and restore the internal energy consumed by the Immortal Body, but the Yi Jin Jing, while expanding his meridians, also had some healing effects—quite remarkable.
With one factor increasing and another decreasing, Kai Xin’s injuries did not worsen as quickly!
If anyone else had seen this, they would surely be stunned in amazement…
Faced with the relentless attacks from ten Wu Wei realm fighters without any armor, Kai Xin endured nearly seventy to eighty punches and kicks, remaining unshaken. The Nine Yang Divine Skill emitted red light frequently, absorbing the damage for him, while the Yi Jin Jing advanced rapidly.
“Stop!”
At Kai Xin’s command, the ten people stopped at once. He waited there for the Yi Jin Jing and Nine Yang Divine Skill to automatically restore his body to its best condition, then checked the time before ordering again, “Again! Attack!”
Frequent and intense punches and kicks filled the prison once more. After ten rounds of attacks, Kai Xin, still injured, ordered the group to stop and waited silently for recovery.
But this time…
It seemed the recovery speed had increased slightly.
“The third level of the Yi Jin Jing indeed recovers faster than the second level, but it will likely take over a dozen rounds to reach the fourth level.”
Kai Xin thought to himself, “Still, it’s not bad. Without any armor, the attacks from the Wu Wei realm are far more effective than those from silk. These ten people’s ten rounds of attacks are equivalent to a hundred strong blows. One cycle can raise the Yi Jin Jing by about one level; as for the Immortal Body… well, its cultivation speed is faster and more stable. It has already reached the middle stage of the second level, with increasingly strong defense, and the recovery ability of the Yi Jin Jing is also becoming more evident.”
After several cycles, Kai Xin’s Immortal Body steadily reached the third level, barely keeping up with the progress of the Yi Jin Jing. At this point, the high defensive capabilities of the Immortal Body came into play—Kai Xin’s body could now withstand over fifteen rounds of attacks, and his recovery time had also decreased from five minutes to four minutes…

“Attack every 200 seconds, fifteen moves per attack!”
Happy set the detailed parameters.
Even a group of prisoners could understand and started attacking.
Each person would make fifteen moves before stopping abruptly, then waiting 200 seconds before attacking again…
Seeing this, Happy stood still, closed his eyes, and imagined what was happening in the ward.
Power surged within him!
The surroundings changed, and he found himself near the market in the city.
“Coo-coo!”
A pure white homing pigeon landed on his shoulder, cooing. Passersby cast strange looks at him, seemingly unable to understand how someone who had been standing in the middle of the street for some time could still have a pigeon on his shoulder…
“Brother Happy, when are you coming? We’ve sold all the goods from yesterday, and the money has been transferred to your account. We’re already at the old place at Wanshou Villa. Remember to leave a message when you arrive.”
It was Yu Long sending a message via pigeon.
Happy was delighted and quickly checked his funds. Sure enough, the total had reached over eighty million taels of silver—enough to buy the Dark Iron Heavy Sword.
But Happy wasn’t in a hurry to acquire this weapon he didn’t need. Having reached the Liberation Realm, obtaining the “Magic Hong World-Destroying Art” would allow him to start cultivating earlier.
He replied to Yu Long right away, saying he would arrive in about half an hour, then sent a message to the player who had agreed to trade the swordsmanship secret for thirty million yesterday:
“Where are you now? I have the money.”
“So fast! I’m still at the market, at the old place!” the other party replied quickly.
Happy was pleased.
He was right at the market.
Following the route from yesterday, Happy arrived at the shrewd merchant’s stall, but several people were blocking it.
“Hm?”
Happy immediately noticed that the people in front of the stall all wore the insignia of the First-Class Hall, and they seemed to have excellent equipment and demeanor, which made him frown inwardly.
“Kid, I know you’re from the Merchant Alliance, but we know even better that you have the ‘Magic Hong World-Destroying Art’ in your hands. We from the First-Class Hall won’t let you get taken advantage of. Thirty-five million—I’ll buy it.”
The speaker was a middle-aged man at the forefront, looking imposing, with sharp eyes and an air of solitude and arrogance.
“…This book has already been reserved by someone.”
The merchant looked troubled:
“And he’s on his way to pick it up.”
Although the Merchant Alliance was a significant group, it was clearly inferior to the First-Class Hall and not as easy to deceive as the Five Poisons Sect.
The owner of the Dark Iron Heavy Sword knew that the person who came this time was a sect leader from the First-Class Hall, so he said nothing and stood aside, observing coldly.
The middle-aged man snorted:

“I know his reserved price is 30 million, which is why I’m paying an extra 5 million to buy it. Surely you won’t refuse me this favor, right?”
The member of Yipin Tang’s group spoke with a hint of threat in his voice.
“Who said my reserved price is 30 million? Brother, it’s 50 million here. Give me the ‘Magic Hong World-Destroying Art’…”
Kai Xin stepped forward from behind the crowd.
