Chapter 863 The Sad Aunt
It may take quite a long time for Ye Lai to completely take over the Imaginary Palace, and it could take any amount of time.
Before that, Yu Cang should just do his own thing.
However, in this way... the matter of the Imaginary Palace has been resolved, and he doesn't need to worry about many of his things.
Just take your time.
Twenty-third floor.
Gu Jieshuang was sitting cross-legged in the clouds, meditating.
Her body was also constantly moving with the current of space.
Yu Cang came to the 23rd floor and stood at the stone gate. Seeing that she was still practicing, he did not go forward to disturb her.
Gu Jieshuang has always been very hardworking. In order to catch up with herself, she practices almost every moment she has.
It can be seen that the pressure on the twenty-third floor is extremely great for Gu Jieshuang. Her brows are tightly furrowed, and it seems that she is not feeling well now, but she still holds on.
Yu Cang sat down at the stone gate and wanted to study the rhythm while waiting, but for some reason, it was difficult to calm down and immerse himself in it.
...Forget it, let’s take a break.
He stretched and leaned against the door frame, his eyes already on Gu Jieshuang.
At this time, the girl tied her hair up into a bun, and her fair skin expanded and shrank under the refraction of the space current.
Seeing this, Yu Cang couldn't help but laugh.
It looks a bit like the beauty filter has been turned on too much... Real space fluctuations.
However, Jie Shuang doesn't need any beauty filters. Her appearance is already stunning and no one can match it.
Gu Jieshuang's expression calmed down, and there was a sense of coldness and alienation in his eyes. This feeling became more obvious after he comprehended the sword intent.
Yu Cang rarely sees such an expression, but now he finally has the chance to appreciate it.
Hmm... If I weren't her boss, it would probably be hard to get close to someone like her, let alone be with her, right?
That’s great.
Admiring the beauty of his wife, Yu Cang's thoughts drifted away for a moment.
If...if he completes the creation of the world in the future, then...
I'm afraid that he and Gu Jieshuang will be separated for quite a long time...
He didn't know how long it would take to create a complete world.
But at the beginning, it took Yuanxu hundreds of millions of years just to create an incomplete prototype of the imaginary palace. During this period, he was almost unable to communicate with the outside world.
In fact, even now, the Imaginary Palace is still in the "creation" stage.
Perhaps, after an infinite amount of time, the Imaginary Palace would eventually become a complete world. However, even Yuanxu, the initiator of creation, could not wait until that time...
And if that time comes, what should I do?
Billions of years or even longer... What will happen to Jie Shuang and her relatives...
Yu Cang didn't think they would betray him, but after all, the time was too long, long enough for a cheerful, positive and strong man to choose to commit suicide.
What if I complete the creation of the world and create a complete world, and then wake up from my slumber... but cannot find anyone familiar in my world, what should I do then?
That kind of scene really makes me despair just thinking about it...
Yu Cang's eyes fluctuated slightly.
And, at this moment.
Buzz!
Gu Jieshuang's aura suddenly changed!
Yu Cang immediately came to his senses, stood up and looked forward.
A breakthrough in thawing?
Wait…not defrosting.
Yu Cang's eyes focused slightly, and at this moment he discovered that although the momentum of the breakthrough came from Gu Jieshuang, it actually came from a certain existence in the deeper level.
It’s my aunt!
Yu Cang blinked.
Auntie, have you become a legend?
But my aunt is now just a remnant soul that can only live in true blood. Is there any possibility of a breakthrough for this existence that doesn’t even have a body?
Yu Cang couldn't understand it, but he was deeply shocked.
You spirit beasts are truly blessed...
Buzz!
Suddenly, all the momentum suddenly subsided and everything returned to calm.
At this moment, Gu Jieshuang's frown deepened.
Yu Cang knew that this must be his aunt's breakthrough, which affected Gu Jieshuang's balance in the extreme environment.
Although the aunt's aura only lasted for a short moment before being withdrawn, the impact it caused was still too great.
Yu Cang had anticipated this, so when the momentum subsided, he flew up, crossed the space current, and held Gu Jieshuang in his arms.
"Don't be afraid—I'll take you to the lower level first."
…
Yu Cang brought Gu Jieshuang to the fifteenth floor of Tianmen.
At this time.
A woman who looked exactly like Gu Jieshuang came running over, jumping and skipping, dragging a soft but textured cloud with her.
"Lord Yu Cang!"
Leng Jue said in a soft voice,
"This is a cloud bed that I asked the Cloud Demon Clan to use their magical powers to specially make. Resting on it can quickly restore your energy, and it's so comfortable!"
Yu Cang smiled: "That's thoughtful."
Just as he was about to put Gu Jieshuang on the cloud bed, he saw Leng Jue gently pulling at the corner of his clothes.
"Master Yu Cang... my cloud bed is prepared for you... Come, let me serve you..."
"Ahem."
Yu Cang immediately coughed lightly, and with a quick turn, he left Leng Jue behind.
"You little fox, you're not being honest again—if you continue like this, I'll ask Jie Shuang to punish you."
"Hmm..."
Leng Jue's eyes were filled with tears, and I felt pity for him.
But seeing that Yu Cang had already put Gu Jieshuang on the bed, she could only bite her lip and snorted in frustration.
Lord Yu Cang... is so charming.
The master can't see it right now... Damn it! This is the opportunity I've been waiting for!
She also wanted to get on the cloud bed, but just as she moved, she saw Yu Cang looking at her warily, and her body suddenly froze in place.
That's too much! Why are you so wary of her?
Ying...she just left.
Leng Jue could only leave here, looking back every few steps.
…
On the cloud bed, Yu Cang wiped a cold sweat from his forehead.
This little girl is really noisy.
Then, he looked at Gu Jieshuang in his arms.
Now, she hasn't woken up yet.
"...Were you injured by the spatial current?"
Yu Cang's eyes focused and he released his spiritual power. After checking Gu Jieshuang's body inside and out, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he just fainted and is not seriously injured.
Thinking of this, he called out, "Auntie?"
No one responded, there was silence.
After a while, Yu Cang sighed.
"Auntie, I know you can hear me... Come out, I'm not blaming you."
"Ahem."
The sound of the aunt's light cough came from Gu Jieshuang's card box, and then an equipment card was activated, and the aunt controlled the long sword and flew into the air.
"Um, Yu Cang... I've tried very hard to control my breath! But, but... I really didn't mean it!"
Although it was a sword, Yu Cangleng saw a panicked and sweaty expression on it.
The aunt tried to explain hurriedly for a long time but still couldn't make it clear, and instead she made herself anxious.
Seeing this, Yu Cang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "Alright, Auntie, I believe you - so what's going on? Can you spirit beasts break through myths without a physical body?"
After hearing these words and seeing that Yu Cang's expression did not seem fake, the aunt finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"I broke through because I really couldn't help myself - that environment was just too unbearable!" After emphasizing this sentence, the aunt paused and said, "As for how I broke through the myth... I'm actually quite confused too.
"Logically speaking, a spirit beast's body is extremely important. Without it, it would be a blessing if the realm didn't fall, and a breakthrough would be wishful thinking... At least in my current state, I definitely can't break through."
Talent is closely related to the body.
Supernatural powers can be said to be something engraved in the soul, but without a physical body, their full capabilities cannot be exerted.
Otherwise, she would have broken through long ago after sleeping in the Bloodline Empire for so many years.
This is also the reason why she couldn't hold back just now.
She herself didn't expect that she could break through!
Suddenly, a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling came over me, as if I hadn't experienced it in thousands of years. Then, halfway through following the feeling, I realized that it was actually the desire to break through. Then, when I remembered that I was still in Gu Jieshuang's body, it was too late to control it.
He could only follow this feeling, complete the breakthrough as quickly as possible, then extinguish his own breath and try not to affect Gu Jieshuang.
But...it still had an impact.
"Then, Auntie, think carefully, is there anything strange about you recently?"
"recent……"
The aunt floated back and forth in the air in a daze, and was silent for a moment.
"If there's anything strange... it's probably because I... seem to have a new magical power?"
"Magic power? When did it happen?"
"It wasn't long, actually... And I don't have a physical body, so I can't use my magical powers even if I have one, so I don't even know what its abilities are..."
"Hiss, that's strange." Yu Cang rubbed his chin, "What's going on..."
…
"It's 'blood returns the favor'."
A voice suddenly came.
Then, a turtle shell suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the cloud bed.
Duang~
After a few crisp bounces, the turtle finally stopped spinning, and then Shouzu's limbs and head emerged from the shell.
This is the miniaturized Shouzu.
Yu Cang's eyes lit up: "Shou Zu, do you know?"
"Ah... I understand a little bit."
Shouzu stretched out his claws and gently pinched with his two nails to indicate that it was only a little.
"The so-called bloodline feeding back... probably means that the younger generation's achievements far exceed those of their ancestors. If the ancestors were still alive at this time, there would be a chance that they would obtain the younger generation's magical powers."
Aunt: “…”
Yu Cang blinked.
The air was quiet for a moment.
Suddenly, the aunt broke the silence and said, "There must be other conditions for achieving this bloodline return, right?"
Shou Zu shook his head: "No, there is only this one."
"Could you have seen it wrong..."
"Auntie, don't worry, I'm an expert in this area and I will never make a mistake." Shou Zu stood up, stretched out his claws, and clapped his shell, making it clang loudly.
Aunt: "...Don't take advantage of your myth to make up stories. I'm telling you...I'm a myth now too!"
"Auntie, when have I ever lied to you?"
"……Wow!"
The aunt screamed and could no longer bear it. She controlled the sword and got back into Gu Jieshuang's card box.
Shou Zu scratched his head: "Auntie, what's wrong? I haven't congratulated him yet."
After sensing that the aunt's aura had reached a mythical level, Shouzu probably guessed what was going on and rushed over immediately.
He liked my aunt very much. She had rescued him from danger and he had admired her for a while.
Unfortunately, he knew that there would be no spark of love between people of different races, so he could only look at his aunt's figure with sadness.
But I didn't expect that I would later hear the news that my aunt was with humans and gave birth to many children. I was heartbroken at that time.
But now, thousands of years have passed, and he has let it go.
Putting aside the feelings of admiration, his aunt was her savior and a rare old friend, so he was willing to get close to her.
Back in Tianmen, when the aunt saw his mythical self, he wanted to get close to her, but he didn't expect that the aunt was restrained by his mythical strength - this was not the aunt he remembered.
At that time, he had a sense of déjà vu between Runtu and the young master.
Now it’s good, my aunt has also been promoted to a myth, and there is no gap in strength between them. I guess we can be old friends again as equals!
So, after sensing the presence, he rushed over happily, wanting to congratulate his aunt first and then rekindle their friendship.
But I didn’t expect that my aunt...what happened?
Yu Cang: "..."
How could he remember that Shouzu was very smart... In order to save his life, he could even deceive someone like Di Changan.
Why are you so clumsy now?
He finally understood what was happening.
Apparently, Gu Jieshuang, this "younger generation", has become powerful enough that she has directly passed on her bloodline to her ancestor, projecting her own talents onto her...
Look at what Shouzu said, the achievements of the younger generation "far" surpass those of their ancestors.
It hurts so much.
Gu Jieshuang is only level seven, but she is "far" better than the super-level lady. If ordinary people hear this, they will find it hard to understand.
The aunt was obviously very angry, but she couldn't prove herself, so she could only go back and sulk alone.
And Shou Zu, didn't even realize that he had just hurt my aunt's heart...
It seems that IQ and EQ cannot be generalized.
Speaking of which, since it is the return of blood, then the magical power that my aunt obtained... is it a return to the clan?
Leng Jue once gained the ability to return to her clan because she could speak human language, which allowed her to directly record the sword intent with her body!
If it was that kind of talent, it would seem understandable that Gu Jieshuang could directly break through the myth.
Yu Cang rubbed his chin.
My aunt's breakthrough was indeed surprising.
But...it's also a good thing.
Hmm, in that case... can I make this aunt into a card backing soul card for Jie Frost?
Yu Cang's eyes lit up.
It’s time to make two soul cards for Jie Shuang!
