Chapter 345 The Reverse Use of the Devouring Skill
Ah Chen was awakened in the middle of the night by his own superpower. This time, he felt an immense crisis, stronger than ever before when he encountered danger.
He jumped up, turned on the bedside lamp, and found his mother sleeping peacefully with a smile on her lips.
He quickly pushed her, trying to wake her up so they could face the crisis together.
However, no matter how much he pushed and shouted, his mother didn't respond. He couldn't help but raise his voice, crying out, "Mommy, Mommy, what's wrong? Don't scare me!"
Several people who had been waiting at the bedroom door rushed in upon hearing the noise.
When Ah Chen saw Aunt Lele, Uncle Maoli, Uncle Xiaobao, and Panda, everyone was there, a terrible thought suddenly came to his mind.
This crisis was caused by his mother; he sensed that she was about to die!
"You all knew Mom was going to die, didn't you?" the boy said, his eyes red.
"I'm sorry, Chen! My sister didn't want us to tell you; she wanted to spend her last night with you." Lele was in tears.
Then she rushed to Zuo Shan's side first, summoned Sui Sui, and began to infuse her body with life force.
Her breath was so faint as to be almost nonexistent, and the continuous flow of life force into her body had no effect whatsoever.
"Chen, your mother used a superpower that has a strong backlash, and ordinary medicine can't save her at all." Mao Li gently hugged him, trying to give him some comfort.
"I understand now, she must have used the prophetic ability. Revealing heavenly secrets comes at a price!"
No wonder yesterday at the city gate, as soon as she saw her father, she pulled him aside to whisper to him, and then her father told her to take good care of her mother before leaving.
Also, my mother said that if she were to have a baby girl in her belly, she would ask me what name I would give her. I would say I would call her Xi'er.
So, Mom already knew she was going to die back then, sob sob sob!
The boy cried uncontrollably, but when he saw Aunt Lele desperately trying to give his mother a chance to live, he immediately wiped away his tears.
His mother wasn't dead yet; he had to find a way to save her!
Suddenly, his gaze fell on the side of the pillow, where there was an exquisite metal box. He opened it and saw two lines of text on the sticker.
"Thank you, Bo Yiyan!"
Goodbye, my teachers and friends!
These two lines confirmed to Achen once again that his mother really did know in advance that he was going to die.
"Dr. Bo? Yes, let's find Dr. Bo. It's said that his medical skills are the best on the entire Green Algae Planet!"
In a moment of desperation, Achen extended his mental energy and connected it to the school clinic.
Fortunately, just as Bo Yiyan opened the door to the school clinic, Achen immediately touched his fingertips with his mental energy.
Sensing a familiar presence touching his fingertips, Bo Yiyan was taken aback: Isn't this Achen? Why isn't the little guy contacting him using his wristwatch, but instead using his mental power?
He quickly realized that the little guy didn't have his contact number.
Although he didn't know the reason, he knew that there must have been some emergency. Thinking of this, Bo Yiyan used Achen's mental energy to lock onto his location.
He was at the Lan Dun family's old house; he should have been at the academy by now!
Achen has always been diligent in his studies, something Bo Yiyan knows very well. The fact that he didn't go to school on time but stayed at the old house suggests a serious problem.
Bo Yiyan immediately took out a small aircraft and flew to the Lan Dun family's old house. At this moment, he no longer cared about the official regulations prohibiting the use of private vehicles in the city. At worst, he could pay a huge fine afterward. He didn't care about that little bit of money.
Bo Yiyan poked his head out of the aircraft and said to the gatekeeper, "I received a communication from your family head. Your young master is seriously injured and in critical condition. Quickly open the protective shield and let me in!"
The gatekeeper naturally recognized the renowned Physician Boda. Seeing that he was blatantly breaking the rules in order to save lives in a hurry, he quickly opened the protective shield and put his aircraft inside.
Bo Yiyan arrived at the door of the left bedroom in three minutes.
As soon as Achen saw him, she cried and said, "Dr. Bo, please save my mother!"
Bo Yiyan scanned Zuo Shan with his spiritual power and immediately discovered that she was on the verge of death, which shocked him greatly!
What's wrong with her?
"Mom used a prophetic skill and suffered a backlash." Ah Chen's mind was exceptionally clear at this moment, and his answer was concise and to the point. He knew he couldn't waste any more time.
"A prophecy? Did she foresee some terrible natural disaster? Otherwise, she would never have suffered such a severe backlash." Bo Yiyan's heart sank.
Then he glanced at the metal box beside her pillow, which contained two vials of medicine. He opened the stopper, took a sniff, and was so shocked that he almost dropped the bottle on the ground!
These are the two newest medicines he developed. He clearly hasn't given her the formulas yet, so why did she manage to concoct them?
In just a dozen seconds, Bo Yiyan realized that this woman must have used the time reversal skill. Only such a heaven-defying skill could explain why she left him two bottles of potions that he hadn't had time to give her the formula for!
The clever woman was using this subtle way to tell her that she had used an extraordinary skill and that there was no need to bother saving her anymore.
Because the backlash from Heaven is something that human power simply cannot resist.
As he looked at the two lines of text on the sticker, his eyes suddenly stung with tears. In the last moments of her life, she was trying to tell him that she considered him a friend and a teacher.
She wanted to convey a message to him: in this vast sea of people, he shouldn't walk alone, but should make more friends.
But she didn't know that people in this world are treacherous, and how easy is it to make a friend who isn't based on self-interest?
If she were no longer in this world, where would he find another friend?
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and a large amount of dense green light surged from his palm.
His skill is Devour, which allows him to devour the life force of all things. However, the Devour skill can also be used in reverse; he can release the life force he has stored to save those he cares about.
Lele, who was desperately trying to channel life force into her sister, sensed the immense life force contained within the green light, far exceeding her own capacity, and was both surprised and delighted!
She knew that even if she died here, her sister might not be able to be saved, but she couldn't bear to watch her sister die.
Even if it's all in vain, she will use every last bit of her energy.
But Bo Yiyan's first move was actually a ninth-level superpower!
Although Lele has already broken through to the sixth rank, her contracted plant, Sui Sui, has only barely broken through to the fifth rank, and all the vitality she outputs comes from Sui Sui.
Therefore, strictly speaking, she was four whole levels below Bo Yiyan, and the vitality he emitted was naturally incomparable to hers.
Bo Yiyan was well aware that he was now fighting against the Heavenly Dao for people, and he would suffer a backlash himself.
But he couldn't care less about that now. With a wave of his hand, he released half of his life force, causing his ability level to drop directly from the ninth rank to the eighth rank.
His face was deathly pale, and several strands of hair at his temples turned white instantly. He gasped as he spoke:
"Her life has been saved for now, thanks to the baby in her belly, who shared half of his life with her. Otherwise, she would have died before I arrived."
However, the baby was severely injured, and it's unknown whether he will survive.
Even so, I can't guarantee she'll wake up again. She might remain in a coma for the rest of her life, no different from a vegetable.
Those gathered around the left bedroom were probably her closest relatives; he didn't want to hide from them how bad the situation was.
