Because of the Extremely Friendly Favorability, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng naturally chose to believe Yang Fan's words. They did not suspect that the mutant corpse in front of them might be Yang Fan's deliberate substitution.
After all, this was also a possibility.
After killing Mo Jinchang, he could casually find a corpse of a half-step mutant to impersonate Mo Jinchang. In any case, the dead told no tales, and there were no witnesses. No one could prove that the mutant corpse in front of them was Mo Jinchang's.
As for the remaining Spirit Source, it was even easier to explain because it was Mo Jinchang's Spirit that had spilled out after his death.
After all, there were very few people who had actually seen the Spirit Source of a mutant and the difference between it and a human's Spirit Source. Wasn't it up to Yang Fan to say what he wanted?
By doing this, Yang Fan would not only not bear the crime of killing a half-step human emperor, but he would also gain great merit and praise. It could be said that he was eating two birds with one stone.
However, because they were all on the same side, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng did not speculate about Yang Fan with such malice. Such a thought only flashed through their minds and did not cause too much of a stir.
They did not believe that Yang Fan would be so cruel as to kill a half-step human emperor so easily.
Moreover, the corpse of a half-step human emperor could not be obtained so easily. It was impossible for Yang Fan to predict the future and kill a half-step human emperor in advance just to put on a show.
"I really didn't expect that Mo Jinchang would be a mutant spy who had hidden so deeply!"
Li Miaocai sighed softly. He could not suppress the shock and fear in his heart.
Who would have thought that the mutant they had been vigilant against and had issued a kill order would actually be lurking beside them? Moreover, his cultivation had already evolved to the half-step human emperor realm.
Li Miaocai was not belittling himself. Judging from the strength that Mo Jinchang had just displayed, he might not be a match for him in a one-on-one fight.
"Yes, this Old Devil Mo has hidden himself too deeply. Not to mention us, even Sir Sword Emperor …"
Ji Sicheng stopped speaking halfway, but everyone understood what he meant.
"It's just a mutant. If he dies, he dies." Ji Sicheng looked worried. "What I am most worried about now is how many mutants like Old Devil Mo are hiding among the humans?"
Li Miaocai also frowned.
He knew that what Ji Sicheng wanted to say was how many of the half-step human experts hidden in the Hibernation Plan were like Mo Jinchang, mutant spies.
After all, even the Lord Sword Emperor was blinded. It was enough to show how terrifying the concealment ability of these Mutants was. No one knew if there were other Mutants hiding within.
"Young Friend Yang...."
With that thought in mind, Li Miao could not help but look up at Yang Fan.
"This may be a bit presumptuous, but I still want to ask. Is it convenient for you to tell us how you discovered this mutant's identity?"
"Yes, little friend Yang Fan, even a half-step Emperor has appeared. This is no trivial matter. So, I hope that little friend Yang Fan can give us some guidance if it's possible!"
Ji Sicheng also looked at Yang Fan eagerly.
They were very curious. What method did Yang Fan use to identify Mo Jinchang's identity as a mutant? Was it universal? Could they learn it?
This was very important.
"To tell you the truth, I have a Heavenly Eye that can see through all illusions and disguises. No matter if it's a mutant or a demon spirit, as long as it appears in front of me, I can immediately recognize it."
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng could not help but feel disappointed when Yang Fan finished speaking.
This happened to coincide with some of their conjectures.
However, the problem was that the awakening of an innate ability depended on both talent and opportunity. It was not something that could be awakened just because one wanted to. It could not be learned, and it could not be popularized.
"However!"
Hearing Yang Fan's words, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng's spirits couldn't help but shake. They raised their heads in excitement.
"However, apart from the Heavenly Eye, there is another method to identify a mutant. Moreover, I have already spread this method."
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng were moved. They seemed to have some impression of this.
When they investigated Yang Fan's past, they had heard their younger clansmen mention this. It was not the first time that Yang Fan had exposed a mutant's identity.
Moreover, the most recent time was two months ago at the Capital Gathering. A half-step Ruler mutant appeared, and it seemed to be from the Mo Clan of Dreamchangers.
It could be seen that there was a big problem with the Mo Clan. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the identities of mutants to be exposed one after another.
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng could not help but look at each other. They had already made up their minds to investigate the Dreamchangers' Guard Residence and the entire Mo Clan.
"Young friend Yang Fan, are you talking about the method to detect the inner core?"
Li Miaocai asked Yang Fan after recalling the method to identify a mutant that Yang Fan had announced at that time.
Seeing Yang Fan nod, Li Miaocai could not help but frown and ask, "But we didn't find the so-called inner core in Mo Jinchang's lower abdomen."
They were not unfamiliar with Mo Jinchang, and they had probed each other more than once. However, they had never seen the inner core of a mutant that Yang Fan had mentioned.
Hearing Li Miaocai's question, Yang Fan was not surprised at all.
He said calmly, "That's because Mo Jinchang dual cultivates Qi, blood, and mind. Moreover, both have reached the half-step Ruler Realm. It hides its inner core extremely well. Unless one's mental power is a realm higher than it, or one searches inch by inch, it's extremely difficult to find it."
With that, Yang Fan flipped his hand and held the inner core that he had just collected from Mo Jinchang's body in his palm.
"Seniors, please take a look. This is the inner core that I collected from this mutant's dantian. It's also the condensation of the essence of every mutant's Qi, blood, and cultivation!"
Whoosh!
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng's gazes were like lightning as they simultaneously shot their gazes toward the fist-sized blood-colored inner core in Yang Fan's hand.
It was round like a pinball and the size of an adult's fist. It was covered with a white soft shell that slightly protruded like blood vessels.
Inside the soft shell, there was a red light that dyed the outer white soft shell into a blood-red color. From afar, it looked like a blood-colored pearl wrapped in a layer of soft cotton cloth.
"This is the inner core of a mutant?"
"What an astonishing fluctuation of Qi and blood. It looks like a powerful medicinal pill that can directly increase one's Qi, blood, and cultivation!"
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng's eyes flashed at the same time. Looking at the blood-colored inner core in Yang Fan's hand, they unconsciously had an impulse to swallow this thing.
Their powerful spiritual perception told them that eating this fist-sized egg would be of great benefit to them.
They could guess without asking that this inner core of a mutant was definitely not an ordinary item. Otherwise, it would not have aroused their spiritual perception and made their minds palpitate.
However, this was Yang Fan's spoils of war after all. Although the two of them longed for it, they still suppressed this impulse in their hearts.
"No wonder Yang Fan said before that the inner core of a mutant was comparable to a panacea. Eating it could directly increase a human's cultivation realm! Now it seems that this is true! "
The two of them sighed quietly in their hearts.
Even Demi-Emperors like them could not help but feel shocked and envious when looking at it. Naturally, it would not be bad.
"Of course, in addition to the inner core, there is actually another item that can distinguish the identity of a mutant. It's just that this item is hidden deep in a mutant's sea of consciousness and is harder to find than an inner core."
With that, Yang Fan flipped his hand and took out a Soul Crystal.
"Here, this is it. It corresponds to the inner core. It is where all the mental power of a mutant is gathered. However, this Soul Crystal will generally collapse naturally with the death of a mutant. It is extremely rare."
Although Yang Fan had killed many mutants, this was the first time he had collected something like a Soul Crystal.
Yang Fan hadn't been able to collect any of the Great Emperors he had killed in the spirit source because their soulcrystals weren't strong enough to solidify. Because of that, their soulcrystals had dissipated along with their bodies, so Yang Fan hadn't been able to collect any.
However, this time was different. Not only was Mo Jinchang an incomplete Spiritual Emperor, but it was also because the Six Paths of Reincarnation Array had directly exhausted all of Mo Jinchang's essence, energy, and spirit. His Divine Soul had been exhausted and he naturally died, so the Soul Crystal did not suffer too much damage.
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng raised their heads again and saw the clear and translucent white crystal in Yang Fan's hand. Their breathing could not help but quicken.
This time, not only were their hearts throbbing, but even their Divine Soul Source could not help but tremble three times. They showed a desire to devour it several times stronger than when they saw the inner core just now.
However, this Soul Crystal flashed in Yang Fan's hand and disappeared. It did not give them much time to prepare and investigate it in detail.
Yang Fan looked at the two big shots in front of him meaningfully, knowing that they were already tempted.
This Soul Crystal was the crystallization of Mo Jinchang's spiritual cultivation. Its effect was far from being comparable to one or two Emperor-level Golden Soul-Refining Cores. It was self-evident how attractive it was to these half-step Emperors.
If it were not for the fact that he had already turned these two into his own people, Yang Fan would not have taken it out so easily.
"Whether it's the inner core or the Soul Crystal, directly consuming it can increase one's vitality and spiritual cultivation by a huge amount."
Yang Fan continued to fan the flames on the side and said indifferently, "I wonder if the two seniors are interested in cooperating with this junior to ferret out more high-level mutants like Mo Jinchang for the Human Federation?"
"Even if the two seniors don't use their inner cores and Soul Crystals, they can be used to cultivate the younger generation of your clansmen!"
Yang Fan's voice was bewitching, exposing his true purpose without any concealment.
He wanted to identify all the half-step human emperors who were hiding in the dark and conveniently turn them into his own people.
