Li Yun's words were shocking and he revealed his cards directly, which frightened Ye Fan so much that he couldn't calm down for a long time.
The girl next to him saw Ye Fan’s shocked and dazed face, and couldn’t help but reach out and shake his arm.
"Hey, what's wrong with you?"
"……nothing."
Ye Fan came back to his senses, suppressed his shock and shook his head, then tried in his mind: "Odd changes but even remains the same?"
Li Yun was full of black lines: "Are you sure you want to ask this?"
Ye Fan looked alert and serious: "Senior, this is a serious matter, I have to be on guard!"
Li Yun sighed: "Okay...the symbol depends on the quadrant."
Ye Fan continued to test: "Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron?"
Li Yun answered fluently: "Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon."
Ye Fan said: "There are two trees planted in front of my house. One is a jujube tree. What kind of tree is the other one?"
Li Yun said without hesitation: "It is also a jujube tree."
Ye Fan's eyes were sharp: "Who is playing the song Dong Feng Po on the pipa?"
Li Yun said helplessly: "You are such a cunning boy. Your questions are getting harder and harder. Should I answer you with Jay Chou's name, or should I continue with the lyrics?"
Ye Fan said happily: "No need, I have already confirmed your identity!"
"Senior, how did you end up in a place like this?"
Li Yun sighed: "This is a long story..."
After saying that, Li Yun’s soul flew out from the Xuanhuang essence and transformed into a heroic and tall young man’s phantom in Ye Fan’s sea of suffering.
In the world of Zhutian, cultivators who have cultivated to the realm of Wheel Sea can open up the Sea of Bitterness at their Dantian. For Ye Fan, who is an ancient holy body, the Sea of Bitterness is a brilliant golden ocean with endless waves like the ocean in reality.
Li Yun was floating above the golden sea of suffering. He smiled faintly and said, "Boy, I know you are still a little wary and cautious of me. This look of joy and excitement is probably just a disguise."
"So, kid, stop pretending. If you have anything to say, let's just speak it out!"
Hearing Li Yun's frank words, the smile on Ye Fan's face gradually faded.
He sighed and said, “Senior, fellow villagers meet and stab each other in the back!”
"Don't blame me for being cautious. It's just that I had some unremarkable experiences before, which forced me to be on guard!"
Li Yun knew that Ye Fan had mistakenly entered the Nine Dragons Coffin while having a party with his college classmates in Mount Tai, and then stepped onto the ancient starry road and eventually came to the Big Dipper star field which possessed extraordinary power.
Many of his college classmates came here with him.
Among these classmates, except for a very small number of people who were his trustworthy friends, the rest had basically shown him the fickleness of human nature and the intrigues during this journey.
He had experienced the feeling of being backstabbed by a fellow villager, so there was no way he would trust Li Yun so easily.
Li Yun smiled and said, "It's okay, I understand. But don't worry, if I had any ill will towards you, you and the girl beside you would have died in my hands long ago!"
...It’s because you let me go for no reason that I have to be careful!
Ye Fan complained in his heart, although his ancient holy body was already useless in this era, it was once the best physique in the ancient times after all, and the holy body still contained tremendous power.
Before coming here, a strong man had tried to capture him and take him away to make elixirs.
There is also a group of seemingly kind-hearted demons who want to use his holy body sea of suffering to nourish the heart of the Demon Emperor.
With all the experiences above in mind, Ye Fan was very worried that the mysterious fellow villager in front of him had the same plan.
Li Yun saw through his worries and said with a faint smile: "Don't worry, I am not interested in your ancient holy body. In today's era, this kind of physique is cursed by heaven and earth. Not only does it require a lot of resources to practice, but the road to the Four Extremes Secret Realm is also blocked by the curse."
"I don't want to go through so much hardship to regain even a fraction of my previous strength after taking over another body..."
"...Possession?!"
Ye Fan was horrified by Li Yun's naked words.
Li Yun smiled and said, "Yes, you have seen that I am just a soul now. If I want to walk the world openly, I naturally need a body with good talents."
"Originally, I was planning to use the Xuan Huang Essence to reshape my body, but this thing is a sacred object for refining a 'vessel' after all. Even if it is reshaped into a body, it cannot eradicate the nature of the source of the mother energy of all things, and it will easily be refined into a 'human vessel'."
"It would be bad if I was targeted because of this."
"So, I decided to make a deal with you..."
Ye Fan said in a deep voice: "What deal?"
Li Yun glanced at the Xuanhuang essence suspended in the bitter sea and chuckled, "I can give you this source of the mother energy of all things. In return, you have to find a body for me, preferably a divine body that is no less powerful than your ancient holy body."
"Of course, in addition to the Divine Body, I can also accept the Chaos Body and the Heavenly Tyrant Body."
“…”
Ye Fan fell silent after hearing this.
Among the physiques that Li Yun mentioned, he had never even heard of the other names except the divine body.
But there is no doubt that these physiques must be extremely strong, and it must be extremely difficult to reach a deal.
However, even so, Ye Fan was still very excited.
After all, this is the legendary source of all things, a sacred object that even the ancient emperors would be moved by!
After a little thought, Ye Fan finally made a decision.
But before answering, he still had some doubts.
“Why did you choose me?”
Li Yun said calmly: "Because you are an ancient holy body, if you want to grow up, there will definitely be no shortage of heroes around you. They will fight with you and compete with you for supremacy. What I want is just the body of one of your future enemies!"
"This is my investment in your future. As an Earthling, you should be familiar with this, right?"
Ye Fan was certainly no stranger to this, after all, he had started a business and even opened a company.
but……
"Are you so sure I can grow up?"
Li Yun laughed when he heard this and asked, "Then do you think you can do it?"
Ye Fan was slightly startled, and then his expression gradually became firm, and he said with great pride: "Of course!"
Li Yun nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, very energetic!"
"Then, once the deal is done, I will help you to sacrifice and refine the source of the mother energy of all things. After that, I will separate a ray of my divine consciousness and enter your sea of suffering, so that I can supervise you to complete the transaction in the future..."
Ye Fan's expression froze: "Ah?"
Li Yun raised his eyebrows and said, "Why, you've never seen Party A supervise the progress of a project?"
Ye Fan smiled awkwardly and said, "Of course I know this, but there is no need for divine consciousness, right?"
Ye Fan said solemnly: "Senior, I swear in the name of my parents that I will definitely fulfill the deal. If you are still worried, then I promise to come back once a year and report the progress of the project to you in person. How about that?"
"no!"
Li Yun rejected Ye Fan's suggestion without hesitation, and then said unhappily: "You kid, don't be so ungrateful. Having me watching you is also a guarantee for you!"
“…”
Ye Fan's heart moved, and he asked cautiously: "Can your divine consciousness also be used?"
Li Yun glanced at him and said, "Of course, but you'd better not expect me to save you. Unless it's a life-threatening situation, even if you are caught and taken to make pills, I won't stop you."
...That's fine too!
Ye Fan was extremely excited. He had been hated by everyone and hunted by various forces during this period, wasn't it because he had no backing?
Although he could not fully trust the senior fellow in front of him, the fact that his consciousness fluctuations could compete with the green copper block showed that his strength when he was alive was absolutely omnipotent, at least it was something he could hardly imagine at the moment.
After a little thought, Ye Fan nodded decisively and said, "Okay, I agree!"
Li Yun smiled: "Very good, without further ado, I will help you to refine the Xuanhuang Essence now!"
After saying that, silver light burst out from Li Yun's soul, wrapping up Ye Fan and the girl next to him, and flew towards the top of the lake.
Looking at the silver light that suddenly appeared around her, the girl couldn't help but look surprised: "What's going on?"
Ye Fan glanced at her, without explaining, and just said softly: "Relax, don't resist."
Soon, as the waves rolled in, the boy and the girl were brought ashore by Li Yun.
Ye Fan stood on the shore and turned to look at the huge lake behind him. He saw the vast expanse of blue water, misty and boundless. The water was as green and translucent as jasper, and looked like a fairy pond with immortal air floating in the air.
Looking back, what comes into view is a forest of lush ancient trees. The forest is lush and green and full of vitality.
Suddenly, an ancient tree not far in front of Ye Fan changed. The lush crown rustled, and a familiar face twisted and grew on the thick trunk, and then quickly shrank into a heroic man in green.
After transforming, the heroic young man in a green shirt patted the dirt off his legs and muttered in surprise, "It actually works?"
There is no doubt that this heroic young man who turned wood into a human is Li Yun!
After coming to this world, Li Yun has been using the Xuanhuang Qi to restore his soul power, and has not used any tricks in this world.
Until just now, he dug out some small spells from the corners of the ocean of memory from the world of traditional Chinese mythology and the world of immortal cultivation, and tried to use them.
It turns out that many magical powers can actually be recognized by the power of heaven and earth!
However, those spells that were not recognized by the power of heaven and earth could not be performed at all because Li Yun's soul had no magic power.
But even so, it was enough to surprise Li Yun.
At the same time, in addition to being surprised, Li Yun also had some complicated emotions.
After joining the alliance, he has always believed in the sanctification of the body and believes that pure strength is the real strength.
But now that he has fallen to this point, even he has to admit the value of the saying "it's better to have many skills than too little".
Fortunately, although Li Yun had no interest in learning magical powers and spells, as a veteran time traveler of the alliance, he still passively memorized a lot of knowledge about magical powers and spells.
Especially after "Fission Magic" was improved to the 3.0 immortal cultivation version, in order to master the many nuclear energy magical powers created by Bai Lang, he spent a long time studying traditional immortal cultivation techniques.
It can be said that even without a body, Li Yun’s soul is a treasure trove of memory full of precious knowledge.
After expressing his emotion, Li Yun took a step forward and walked towards the stunned boy and girl in front of him.
“What…what is this?”
Ye Fan couldn't help but ask.
Li Yun smiled and said, "This is the art of enlightenment. It can turn dead objects into puppets with a certain degree of intelligence. However, this spell is a simplified version of the real art of enlightenment. The puppets that are enlightened not only have limited intelligence, but also have a short lifespan."
"In thirty-six hours at most, it will return to its previous state."
"So, let's hurry up!"
