Chapter 64: Breakthrough But young people should take it easy. ...
"I feel like you've gained weight?"
Zhao Chaoan pinched the face of Ying Bu Ran, who was lying on top of her, and suddenly said this.
Ying Bu Ran was originally sleeping in a daze. Ever since that incident, Zhao Chao An seemed to like this way of sleeping. After trying to break free several times without success, Ying Bu Ran was too lazy to move anymore.
Anyway, she wasn't the one being oppressed.
She had been working non-stop before, and even when she was resting she would think about other things. It was only now that she had a real rest for a few months.
Hearing Zhao Chaoan's sudden words, she opened her dazed eyes and subconsciously asked, "Why do you say that suddenly?"
Zhao Chaoan pinched her face again. "It feels like you're more fleshy now. Have you gained weight? That's not bad. You were too skinny before, like a stick."
"Pfft, are you confused?" Ying Bu Ran was still a little sleepy, but he couldn't help but laugh when he heard her words. "I'm not a complete person. I can't eat normally or absorb anything from food. How can I say I've gained weight?"
Zhao Chaoan thought about it, hugged Ying Bu Ran and rubbed him again: "Maybe, maybe I really am overthinking it. But it does feel a lot better when I touch it."
Not a complete person... There is still no way, and Ying Bu Ran can only continue to maintain this state. Although she is very optimistic now and thinks that this is much more convenient and it is also good.
But in Zhao Chaoan's heart, it has always been a thorn, telling her every moment what Ying Bu Ran had experienced and is enduring now.
She originally thought that she could try going through the Gate of Life and Death again, but the King of Hell told her that a person can only go through the Gate of Life and Death once.
The bad thing is not this, but the fact that the King of Hell said that Ying Bu Ran’s current state is not allowed in this world, and her existence breaks the rules.
Perhaps because of the ongoing Heaven's Wrath, the Spirit of Heaven is busy absorbing energy and has no time to take care of her, but sooner or later it will use the rules of the world to take action against her.
"Now in the mortal world, which you call the lower realm, He is the supreme being. He can still do it by mobilizing a little bit of power. You need to pay attention."
Oh, it's so difficult. It's too disadvantageous for them to have that thing occupy an advantageous position.
Hearing Zhao Chaoan sigh, Ying Bu Ran subconsciously looked up and asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
Zhao Chaoan shook her head and touched Ying Bu Ran's head, still feeling a little uncertain. "I will definitely restore your human identity," she said suddenly.
Ying Bu Ran thought that his previous emotion had made her think of the past again, so he patted her and comforted her, "It's okay, your current state won't affect anything. Don't you think it's even quite convenient?"
Except for the occasional wailing of the dead, which seemed to have started from that time she fell into the ghost world, she initially thought it was just tinnitus from not getting enough rest, until the sound became clearer.
She heard them being unwilling and struggling. They said they wanted to survive and questioned why she could live instead of joining them.
Ying Bu Ran guessed that these were probably the angry cries of those who died in the Heavenly Sacrifice or the Wrath of Heaven. If he wanted to appease them, he could only kill the Spirit of Heaven.
Is that really okay?
"But it's not a good idea to keep going like this. Anyway, I'll keep looking for a solution," Zhao Chaoan said. He then changed the subject and pinched Ying Bu Ran's new hand. "By the way, how's this hand doing?"
A hand? Ying Bu Ran sat up and took off the white silk glove on his left hand, revealing his bluish-tinged arm. "There's no problem moving or using it, but I don't know if it's because the King of Hell helped me put it together, but it's always been in ghost form and can't transform into a human hand at all."
Zhao Chaoan was stunned for a moment, then took Ying Bu Ran's hand. However, she couldn't see anything wrong. She rubbed her chin and said, "Well... I'll go ask the King of Hell what's going on. Speaking of which, your cultivation is improving very quickly now. You should be the cultivator who will reach the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Transformation Realm the fastest. Maybe after a few more visits, you can reach the Mahayana Realm?"
Ying Bu Ran immediately pulled out his hand and skillfully hit Zhao Chao An on the head: "Talk about something serious, don't just think about that stuff every day."
"Okay, I'm going to get up and practice sword-fighting." Ying Bu Ran quickly tidied up her clothes, got out of bed, and said in a serious tone. If the tips of her ears hadn't turned red, Zhao Chaoan might have really thought she was very serious.
Shy ran away this is.
Not long after, Ying Bu Ran came back. He touched his nose and didn't look directly at Zhao Chao An. "Well, Yun Xiang Wan sent some news. She asked us to go to the City Lord's Mansion for a small meeting. The other two sects have made some breakthroughs."
Zhao Chaoan raised his eyebrows, then smiled and leaned closer, sticking to Ying Bu Ran: "Okay, let's go together!"
.
As soon as she entered the room, Ying Bu Ran was hugged tightly: "Sister!" Qian Qiuxin was very happy to see her and almost jumped up: "It's been a long time since I saw you, sister. Are you busy recently?"
Qian Qiuxin has now learned about her own life experience. Unexpectedly, the little girl was not sad but very happy.
"So, I have two sisters?!" The little girl jumped around the two of them, her eyes shining as she looked at Zhao Chaoan.
Zhao Chaoan was caught off guard and felt uncomfortable with this sudden enthusiasm. After seeing Qian Qiuxin clinging to Ying Bu Ran, this dissatisfaction was magnified to the extreme.
She reached out and grabbed the little girl by the back of her collar and lifted her up. She separated Qian Qiuxin and Ying Bu Ran, and only then did she feel relieved.
Ying Bu Ran greeted Qian Qiu Xin with a smile, then saluted Jiang Liu Yan, Yun Xiang Wan, and Mu Xing Li before curiously asking, "Where are Senior Qu and Senior Si?"
Qu Lingyou and Sinuo had attended several such meetings before, but this was the first time that no one was there and no presence was sensed.
"Fellow Daoist Qu is currently in the Wanxiang Sect, working with Sect Master Bai to discover ways to resist the wrath of heaven. Si Nuo is searching for the clone of the Heavenly Spirit with the Tianyan Sect." Jiang Liuyan explained, then asked with concern, "How is your injury now?"
"Don't worry, Mom. It's all fine now," Ying Bu Ran replied with a smile. Perhaps due to the difference in cultivation, Jiang Liuyan recovered much faster than she did. Almost a month after returning to the city, she had fully recovered under the supervision of Qu Lingyou and Bai Zhi.
Yun Xiangwan glanced at Ying Bu Ran's neck and noticed the red mark that hadn't been completely covered. A sinister thought welled up in her, and she jokingly said, "The young city lord's cultivation has improved quite a bit during this time. But young people should still take it easy."
She could see that Zhao Chaoan's puppet body had undergone a qualitative change. In addition, Qian Qiuxin had been complaining to her recently that she couldn't find her two sisters, so it was obvious what these two were doing.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present blushed except Qian Qiuxin, who didn't know what was going on, and Mu, who always had a cold face.
Jiang Liuyan coughed, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Remember to rest."
"Okay, okay!" Ying Bu Ran's face was already red. Seeing Zhao Chaoan smiling with her face turned away, she pinched her directly.
Zhao Chaoan grimaced in pain, then immediately stopped and nodded: "Okay, I understand! It hurts!"
"Let's get back to business. They haven't arrived yet. Let's talk about the opportunity you mentioned before?" Jiang Liuyan knocked on the table, trying to steer the topic back to normal.
Ying Bu Ran pulled Zhao Chao An to find his seat and sat down, and Qian Qiu Xin obediently returned to sit next to Yun Xiang Wan.
After taking his seat, Ying Bu Ran said, "I have a feeling that she will appear soon, but I don't know exactly when. I may need to continue sensing her."
"Okay, thank you for continuing to search this area. Just let us know when you need anything." Jiang Liuyan looked at the two empty spots, which were flashing with light. "They're here."
As soon as he finished speaking, three figures appeared on the seats. This was the Tianyan Sect's latest research on the Tianling Mirror. It could project a figure from the other side of the Tianling Mirror by using spiritual energy to power it. It consumed one high-quality spirit stone per hour.
For large sects with rich cultural heritage like the Wanxiang Sect and the Tianyan Sect, a high-quality spirit stone is just a drop in the bucket.
"Everyone, long time no see." Chen Cangwu greeted them with a smile, Bai Zhi also nodded. Qu Lingyou stood behind Bai Zhi, looking a little listless.
What had happened? Ying Bu Ran was a little curious. The usually unruly Qu Lingyou always behaved like a quail when he met Bai Zhi.
Seeing that everyone was present, Bai Zhi didn't say anything polite and got straight to the point. "Thanks to the information provided by Young Friend Ying, we've made a breakthrough in our research on Sky Wrath. We now have a drug that can hinder its further development, but it will take some time to remove it."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Qu Lingyou, who continued, "You all know this, right? Skywrath is essentially a 'curse' that falls upon a living being. It drains the creature's power, and when that power is exhausted, it absorbs her life force."
"What we can do now is to interrupt the absorption process. Using drugs, we can put the person afflicted by the Sky's Wrath into a state of suspended animation, preventing the curse from finding any energy to absorb and simultaneously blocking the absorption pathway."
Did it mean to deceive the heavens? Ying Bu Ran was stunned. Could this be achieved through drugs?
Seeing her stunned, Bai Zhi added, "Ordinary medicines don't work, so we used some magical herbs. This herb comes from heaven and is currently beyond the reach of the spirits of heaven."
"Where did you get this herb? Why haven't I seen you use it before?" Zhao Chaoan was stunned. What was going on? Why was it getting so mysterious?
"Ah, because it's a magical herb, it's extremely difficult to cultivate, and we've only recently made a breakthrough," Bai Zhi explained. "Plus, our previous research on Sky Wrath was superficial. We only knew it was a curse that plundered power, but we had no idea how or where to begin."
"Without Mr. Ying's information, even if the immortal grass is now cultivated in large quantities, we have no concrete plan to implement."
In general, no matter from which direction, the biggest breakthrough point is the information that Ying Bu Ran got after going deep into the Liuyun Sect. Without this information, it would be impossible to move forward.
