Xuantian Bing said, "You were directly hit by the third level of sky thunder. Although the power of the sky thunder has been weakened a lot and it is protected by the extremely mysterious ice shield, your cultivation level is too far behind the old ghost VV to be able to exert the extremely mysterious power." The true power of the ice shield caused severe damage to the body, Old Ghost VV. Although the brain, golden elixir, soul, and internal organs were not damaged, the muscles, meridians, and other things were damaged, and even the blood was clotted. Your injuries at that time even hurt me. I find it very tricky. I first used the spirit energy to trigger your vitality. If your body is allowed to recover in this extremely mysterious eye, I'm afraid it will take at least a thousand years for everything to return to normal. I know you still have it. There are a lot of things to do, so I chose another method. I cleaned up all your necrotic places, then used the fairy spirit energy to protect your vitality. Based on the inner organs, I used the absolute zero of the extremely mysterious ice to control every part of your body. Use Ji Xuan Ice Jade to rebuild your bones. Human bones are very magical. They not only have the ability to regenerate, but the bone marrow is also the key to human survival and is responsible for hematopoiesis. I extracted some of my own bone marrow and used it to create the Ji Xuan Ice Jade. The center of your bones was hollowed out and your vitality was introduced into it. Fortunately, your own bone marrow was not completely destroyed. The remaining part of the old ghost VV successfully fused with my bone marrow to form a new body. After a month, With the nourishment of the fairy spirit, it will be easy to restore the old skin. Your current meridians are stimulated by the fairy spirit to stimulate the meridians in the inner organs to grow suddenly. After rebirth, I will implant them where needed. After the meridians are intact, the fairy energy will reshape your new skin, which is completely grown by you. So overall, there is not much difference between you now and before. The main thing is that your bones have turned into Ji Xuan Ice Jade.
Hai Long was stunned. After listening to everything Xuan Tianbing said, the old ghost's eyes were filled with incredible light. Although Xuan Tianbing was simple, he knew what a complicated process it was! Reshaping the body and implanting the bone marrow was his own I have never heard of it. In order to save myself, Xuan Tianbing actually used his own bone marrow. This kind of kindness is so great that I am afraid that I will never be able to repay it in my lifetime. The corners of Hai Long's eyes were wet and wet. He said with some difficulty, "Sister, thank you. Why are you so nice to me? If it weren't for you, I would have died long ago."
Xuan Tianbing smiled slightly and said, "Idiot. Have you forgotten the agreement between us? If you die, who will go to the fairy world to help the old ghost vv my good sister. Who will help me avenge you?"
Looking at Xuan Tianbing's brilliant smile, which was like ice thawing, Hai Long's heart trembled. He murmured, "Sister, you are so beautiful. I really don't understand why that guy, the Immortal Emperor, treats you badly. Is there you?" Isn't he satisfied with such a wife? Don't worry, I promise you that I will do my best to complete what I promised you."
Xuan Tianbing took a deep look at Hai Long and said, "Brother, if you are interested in sister's body now, sister can give it to you at any time. You are already immortal and you are afraid of the cold. We can merge together and there will be no harm to you. As long as I will do anything that can defeat that bastard of the Immortal Emperor." Then she took off her robe.
Looking at Xuan Tianbing's perfect body, Hai Long's heart was in shock. He couldn't bear it and quickly turned around and said, "Sister, please don't do this. I won't be able to bear it."
Xuan Tianbing said sadly, "What? Do you think I am an unclean person? Do you think I am not worthy of you?"
Hai Long shook his head vigorously and said, "No, it's not true. Sister, I have been alone since I had no relatives and you have been so kind to me. I have already treated you as my biological sister. What's more, now that I have your bone marrow in my body, we can already be blood relatives." I like you, I really like you because you are the best sister who deserves my respect and love! Sister, do you want the old ghost VV to destroy this sincere brother-sister relationship between us? No matter what, I will never do it. I violated your body and don’t want you to get hurt again.”
Xuantian Bing listened in shock to Hai Long's sincere voice from the heart. Unknowingly, two ice crystals appeared on his pretty face. He slowly put on his robe and sighed softly, "Turn around, I won't force you." Hai Long, besides my sister, you are the best person to me. At first, I just wanted to use you, but you are indeed a good brother worthy of my love. Everything is God's will. Don't force things from now on. Let's do it from now on. I have a brother like you. I already feel that I am happier since I was a ghost than in the fairy world. If I were a mortal, I would definitely marry you like Piaomiao. Brother, you may not know it yet, although you are not that handsome, but you have a certain talent. With this attractive charm, I used the art of Nine Heavens Observation to discover that you are actually the body of a dragon that is rare to see in ten thousand years. No matter what other aspects of you are, your own temperament has a strong attraction to everyone, especially to you. woman."
Hai Long turned around and murmured, "Dragon Xi Body? I don't understand."
Xuan Tianbing smiled and said, "Not even you, even I don't quite understand this. This guy from the Immortal Emperor told me. Among the people I've seen, whether they are immortals or mortals, except for you, only that bastard from the Immortal Emperor has the body of a dragon." Maybe this is also the reason why the old ghost VV Long Xiangyu fused with you. Well, if you have a chance, you can ask your master about this later, maybe he will know. Now I will tell you the details of your body first."
Hai Long's spirit perked up and he looked at Xuan Tianbing for a moment. Xuan Tianbing said, "The reason why you feel less flexible in controlling your body is mainly because of the replacement of bones. In fact, now Ji Xuan Old Ghost VV's Jade has completely changed with you. The fusion can be no different from your previous bones. It has all the previous functions, but because its essence is extremely mysterious ice jade, combined with my immortal bone marrow, you are now completely different from ordinary cultivators. You can have both hell, ice and fire. You already know the attack, but this is just a part of your body's change. The most important thing, old ghost VV, is that your current mana already contains a certain degree of fairy energy, which delays the time for you to overcome the disaster. Simple, although you are now It feels like you haven't fallen into the early stage of cultivation, but in fact you are still a great mana power realm. Although the speed of improvement is slow, your cultivation level is relatively fast. When you reach the realm of tribulation, your cultivation level may even be quite high. This will be of great benefit to your future tribulations in the Tianyi realm. It should be very easy for you to pass the sixth level of tribulation in the Tianyi realm. What’s more, you are only at the third level. It is with this benefit that you can In future cultivation, you don’t have to deliberately hide your cultivation like those ordinary cultivators."
Hai Long nodded and said, "So it's so good, but sister, I think it's not that easy to ascend to immortality. I don't know why my master, old ghost VV, once treated me. In the future, what I have to face is not the third level of heavenly tribulation of ordinary cultivators, but the highest ninth level." .As you look like this, I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for me to get through it!”
Xuantian Bing was stunned for a moment and suddenly said, "Yeah, how come I forgot about your master and you are his disciple? How can the immortal world allow you to easily overcome the tribulation? Old ghost VV? These bastards in the Nine Heavenly Tribulation Immortal Realm are really ruthless. Then It was used to punish Daluo Jinxian, even I am afraid I can handle it very well. Brother, it seems that you still have a long way to go, but you must have confidence in yourself. With your master's cultivation method, you may not be able to successfully pass the ninth heaven. Move. You have to know that although this is very dangerous, if you succeed, the benefits of Old Ghost VV will be completely proportional. As long as you can survive the ninth level of heavenly tribulation, you can have the strength of Da Luo Jinxian even without the reward of the Immortal Emperor."
Hai Long was not excited because Xuantian Bing might become the Great Luo Jinxian. Now his mind is very mature. He looked at the blue Xuanbing world around him and sighed, "Da Luo Jinxian? Then I have to wait until I am destined to save the calamity." The Heavenly Tribulation is really powerful. Just the third Heavenly Tribulation almost kills me. If the ninth Heavenly Tribulation comes to China, won't it be destroyed along with it?"
Xuan Tianbing shook his head and said, "Things are not as you imagined. But in order to prevent you from being hurt, I can't tell you now. After the old ghost VV, you will understand everything. In the recent period, you must adapt to yourself as soon as possible." No matter which world you are in, your body should be trained more. Strength means everything. If you can have the cultivation level of your master, even the Immortal Emperor will be a little afraid of you. Oh, by the way, now the old ghost Ji Xuan VV Ice Shield has been It has become one with your body, and the thirty-six immortal formations have also been integrated into your bone marrow. From now on, your defense will be even stronger. As long as your cultivation is strong enough, your body will provide you with corresponding I have always been envious of my ability. My body itself is an immortal weapon. You are unique."
Hai Long smiled slightly and said to the old ghost VV, "This is all thanks to my sister. If you want to thank me, I will definitely help you fulfill your wish in the future. Sister, you can cultivate. I will go back first. Lianyun Sect is in chaos now and there are many things." I still need to deal with it”
Xuan Tianbing nodded with some reluctance, "Take care of everything. If you have anything you don't understand, just come and ask me. Although I can't directly help your sect, it's enough to point you out."
Hai Long knew that Xuan Tianbing was afraid of being alone and promised, "Sister, don't worry, I will come to see you often. As long as I don't leave Lianyun Sect, I will come at least once a month."
Xuan Tianbing smiled with satisfaction and said, "There's no need to come here. I'm used to being alone. I don't want to delay your cultivation."
Hai Longyiyi said goodbye to Xuantian Bing and flew out of Piaomiao Peak and returned to Jietian Square. The blue sky was still so clear, but the atmosphere in Jietian Square seemed very solemn when the old ghost VV had experienced the disaster caused by the evil way. This China The damage suffered by the largest sect of the righteous path is unimaginable. At this time, the disciples of all peaks have retreated. The only two people left in Jietian Square are Tianting and Tianyue. When they saw Hai Long returning, they floated up When they came to him, they saluted and said, "I have met the sect master."
Hai Long hurriedly returned the gift. "The two ancestors are the heroes of my Lian Yun Sect. There is no need to be so polite. Is the disciple okay? How is the Immortal Formation?"
Tianting sighed softly and said, "With the encouragement of the sect master, although we suffered heavy injuries this time, the disciples did not give up and went back to practice. As for the immortal formation, there is no big problem. The main responsibility for the immortal formation being broken lies with us. I haven’t been exposed to it for a long time, and its control is a lot worse than the old ghost VV. Otherwise, even a few more scattered demons will not be able to attack it. We are not heroes at all, but sinners of the Lianyun Sect. The sect leader can rest assured that the immortal formation was broken but was exploited by the other party. The hole destroyed the joint formation of the fairy spirit energy and there was no damage in itself. It will not take more than half a month. When the fairy spirit old ghost VV spirit reunites under the influence of the formation, everything will return to normal. Now you have taken over as the sect leader. There are some things we must explain to you. Please come with us."
Hai Long nodded and said, "Everything is destined by God. The two founders don't have to blame themselves too much. What we have to do is to revitalize the Lianyun Sect."
Tianting and Tianyue looked at each other and sighed. They turned around and walked towards Jietian Palace at the same time. Under their leadership, the three of them entered Jietian Old Ghost VV Harem directly. They turned two corners and came to the second T-shaped At the intersection, Tianting said, "On the right is the place where we practice daily, and it is also the place where you go through the test. And next to Zuo Laogui is the real forbidden area of our Lianyun Sect. There is not only a place for finding destiny that only second-generation disciples can enter, but also me." The memorial tablets of the ancestors of the Lianyun Sect. Hai Long, since you have taken over as the sect leader, why do you want to pay homage to the memorial tablet of this ancestor? Come on."
The restriction had long since disappeared. Hai Long followed the two of them and kept walking to the left. Not long after, they reached the end. Tianting recited a spell. A portal appeared on both sides of the wall that was originally sealed by rocks. Tianting and Tianyue stepped into it first. One of them, Hai Long, felt the huge fairy spirit and followed in.
This is an empty place. The huge room is not as big as the Jietian Palace outside. In the center is another statue of Patriarch Lianyun, Old Ghost VV. Below it are dozens of tablets with names simply written on them at the bottom. There is a blue stone carved tablet with the words "Jie Tian Dao Zun Sheng Xian" written on it. Next to it is a white tablet carved with "San Xian Tian Ling Sui Dan Rescue Sect". The inscriptions are still fresh, obviously they were just added. At this point, Hai Long clearly felt the huge pressure coming from around him. In the solemn atmosphere, he couldn't help but step forward and salute respectfully to the tablet. Tianting nodded with satisfaction and said, "The ancestors of all generations are here, Hai Long, the sixth generation leader of Shanglian Yunzong." Dao Zun officially assumes the position of the leader of our sect. May the Patriarch bless you. Hai Long bows three times and kowtows nine times." Hai Long knelt down on the ground and bowed respectfully.
Tianting and Tianyue stood on both sides of Hai Long. Tianting said, "From now on, as the elder of Lianyun Sect, I declare that Hai Long is officially the sixth generation sect master of this sect to receive the magical weapon."
Hai Long was stunned for a moment and then stretched out his hands. Tianting said in a deep voice, "There are several immortal weapons in our Lianyun Sect. Apart from the old ghosts, VV Taoist Masters and the two of us, three of them are only used by the sect master." Only then can you use it. The Taoist Master Jie Tian was not qualified enough to fuse with these three immortal weapons. Otherwise, evil ways would not be allowed to be so rampant. Hai Long, today I will give you these three immortal weapons. I hope you can withstand the test of the immortal weapons with your firm perseverance. If you can If we successfully possess them, the rise of Lianyun Sect will be just around the corner."
Hai Long said firmly, "Please ask the ancestor to pass on the magic weapon and I will do my best to conquer it."
Tianting and Tianyue looked at each other. Both of them saw firm expressions in each other's eyes. They nodded slowly. Tianting waved his big hand, golden light suddenly released. Hailong felt his whole body shake. The divine power in his body surged at an unprecedented speed. The human elixir at the spiritual platform was running wildly, trembling violently, and constantly distributing the power of God to all the meridians in the body. Hailong Qing, the old ghost, could clearly feel three groups of golden light appearing in his meridians. They looked very violent as soon as they entered his meridians. He began to rush left and right wildly. The force was so great that Hai Long's whole body was shaken. The meridians in his body were split into pieces. He couldn't bear it. Old Ghost VV spit out a mouthful of blood. His mind suddenly became blurred. A cold feeling began to spread from all parts of his body. Through the inner vision, Hai Long found that the extremely black ice jade bone of his body was beginning to play a role. All the meridians were covered with a faint blue light, and his defense was greatly increased, reducing his pressure. Hai Long didn't hesitate at all, urging all his mana to take the lead. He rushed towards a ball of golden light. He knew that only by completely subduing them could these three immortal weapons be used for him.
Tianting and Tianyue looked at Hai Long, whose body was full of old ghosts, emitting a faint blue light. Both of them showed surprise when they fused three immortal weapons at the same time. I am afraid that even an immortal would not be able to do it easily, let alone Hai Long whose cultivation level has weakened. In the past series of battles, When the leader of the Yun Sect took over, he also chose one fusion. They had their own ideas for letting Hai Long merge with Lao Gui VV at the same time. However, at this time, it seemed that Hai Long had stabilized the situation in his body and there was no danger for the time being.
Tian Ting said, "Unexpectedly, his cultivation level is higher than we expected. And he seems to have an immortal weapon, otherwise it would be impossible to support him. Junior sister, let's not rush to take action. It's too late to wait until he can't resist." This will be of greater benefit to him."
Tianyue sighed softly and said, "I hope it can succeed. This is also our Lianyun Sect's last hope. If it doesn't work, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Lianyun Sect to show its tricks again."
Tianting nodded firmly and said, "Don't worry, senior sister, we will definitely succeed. Once we complete this matter, we can also explain it to Brother Tianling."
At this time, Hai Long entered the dire straits again after a short period of resistance. When his divine power hit the first ball of golden light, although he relied on the dual abilities of possessing Buddha nature and fairy spirit, he successfully restricted the golden light. But the other two groups of golden light became even more crazy. Before Hai Long could digest the first group of golden light, they rushed over. The three groups of golden light merged into one. It was so powerful that it was impossible for the old ghost VV to compete with Hai Long. His divine power was overwhelmed by the three groups of golden light. Rapidly devouring the extremely cold ice bones in his body, although he resisted the ravages of the immortal weapon, Hai Long's magic power became weaker and weaker, and the light of the human elixir gradually dimmed.
Hai Long gritted his teeth and endured. He deeply remembered Tian Ting's words before. With firm perseverance, he continued to stimulate his own potential and forced his human elixir to release one after another of divine power towards the fused golden light of the three immortal weapons. He knew that either the three immortal weapons would suck him dry or his own mana would gain the upper hand and successfully control them, causing Old Ghost VV and the others to fuse with him. The second possibility of success, although Old Ghost VV was extremely low, Hai Long has no other choice now. In order to be able to control the immortal weapon and to survive, he can only work hard.
Time passed by. Hai Long became weaker and weaker. The human elixir had changed from milky white to golden yellow. Obviously, the consumption of mana had exceeded the limit he could bear, causing his realm to decline. The light domain composed of three immortal weapons was still powerful without any trace. Declined, Hai Long suddenly had an idea in his mind. It was impossible for him to control these three immortal weapons with his own cultivation. Old ghost VV, but why did Tianting and Tianyue insist on doing this by themselves? If it weren't for the extremely mysterious cold ice bones, I'm afraid that they themselves His body had long been sucked dry by the immortal weapon. At this time, no matter what, he could not compete with the immortal weapon. As a result, only the golden elixir was absorbed by the immortal weapon, and his soul was shattered. When Yang reached this point, his last vague consciousness was extremely angry and stubborn in his chest. Shang Chong Old Ghost VV You want me to die but I won't die in anger. His last potential was fully stimulated and he launched the last attack with the power of God. At the same time, he used his consciousness to call the red dragon, hoping to get its help.
The red dragon's lazy voice sounded, "I'm sorry, I can't help you. You have to rely on yourself. You must hold on. This is an excellent opportunity for you." After leaving this sentence, no matter how Hai Long called, he ignored it. pay attention.
Hai Long was desperate. The power of God he activated at the end was getting weaker and weaker. The golden elixir at the spiritual platform turned into a spiritual elixir state. It slowly moved up under the pull of the huge old ghost VV of the three immortal weapons. Once the golden elixir and the three immortal weapons There is only one consequence of contact, that is, it will be swallowed up completely, and Hailong himself will be disorganized and die.
Hai Long started to be a little frightened and watched the golden elixir approaching him with golden light, but there was nothing he could do. Finally, when the golden elixir was only about three inches away from the golden light, Hai Long went crazy and said secretly, "Master, I'm sorry, I can't listen to you. Anyway, we are all going to die. I might as well break the pill and fight. Maybe I can pull these three immortal weapons to die together. Just when he was thinking about breaking the pill for the third time crazily, a kind and honest voice suddenly sounded in his consciousness: "Hai Long, don't be impulsive." "Keeping the golden elixir." At the same time, two groups of deep mana instantly injected into his empty Dantian. Under the influence of the huge energy, the golden elixir was forcibly pulled back to the spiritual platform, and the light became brighter. The golden elixir lost most of its energy and went crazy. It absorbs external energy and converts it into the divine power of the sea dragon to fight against the fairy weapons.
Hai Long was surprised to find that the two external magical powers turned out to be fairy spirit energy. At this time, he had understood something, but the situation was no longer under his control. The middle gradually changed from golden to milky white, and the functions in the body were no longer weak. The old ghost VV continued to absorb the power of the middle gods, and rapidly expanded, constantly impacting the golden light groups formed by the three immortal weapons, and the two immortals that were input into his body. There seems to be no end to the spiritual energy. Not only does it show no sign of weakening, but it is getting stronger and stronger. The transformed divine power gradually exceeds the maximum amount that the three immortal weapons can swallow, and the old ghost VV continues to inject it into the immortal weapons. Restricting them and squeezing them from the outside inward, Hai Long knew that as long as the two fairy spirits supporting him continued, it wouldn't take long for these three fairy weapons to be used by him obediently.
Time passed by. The golden light of the fairy weapon became weaker and weaker, and some of it was transformed into a milky white color that was the same as the power of God. Just when Hai Long thought he was about to succeed, the three fairy weapons suddenly separated and followed three different meridians in his body. The fast Yiyun and Hailong were stunned for a moment and then became furious. These three old ghosts were too cunning. With such an advantage, he certainly couldn't let them escape like this. Without any hesitation, the divine power divided his troops into three groups. Chase him quickly.
After all, his body is that of Hai Long. How familiar is he with his own meridians? The three immortal weapons were surrounded and robbed. The three immortal weapons were immediately forced to the corner of Hai Long's right arm meridian. There was no room for escape. Hai Long urged. The huge power of God launched a final fierce attack on the three immortal weapons. The power of God like waves continued to impact the golden old ghost VV light that was baptizing the three immortal weapons. Their resistance was getting weaker and weaker. When the input of the two fairy spirits suddenly stopped, Hai Long's divine power suddenly completely occupied the energy of the three fairy weapons. With a flash of light, a purple dragon appeared in front of the three surrendered fairy weapons, with its mouth wide open. Devouring them one by one, the purple dragon circled around Hai Long's body, and the explosive energy suddenly emitted. This was exactly the divine power that had just been input into the three immortal weapons. The meridians in Hai Long's body changed rapidly. When the purple dragon regained its strength, When the meridians in his right arm disappeared, the meridians in his body had completely turned purple. Everything returned to normal. His cultivation remained in its original form without any change. He slowly opened his eyes and two cold lightning flashes came from him. Everything around him seemed to become clearer in Hai Long's eyes. He felt that his body was filled with explosive power. Thinking of the fairy spirit that old ghost VV had before, he suddenly turned around and saw two figures collapsed on the ground. They looked at They looked so old and their faces were covered with wrinkles, but from their appearance, we could vaguely tell that they were Tianting and Tianyue.
"Grandmaster, why are you doing this!" Hai Long's voice was full of emotion and he fell to his knees with a plop.
Tianting forced a smile, wrinkles piled up on Hai Long's face. It's nothing. We are punishing ourselves for not defending the Lianyun Sect. You don't have to be sad. In our situation, it is impossible to survive the third Forty-nine Heavenly Tribulation instead of dying in vain. Why not leave your cultivation to you? We have already decided to do this after the death of brother Tianling. From now on, the growth of Lianyun Sect will depend on you." The three of Tianting, Tianyue and Tianling have been together for many years and have already developed a deep understanding of each other. Today, when the old ghosts of the three evil sects attacked the Lianyun Sect, it was because they were unfamiliar with the operation of the immortal formation that they found a loophole for the five Sanxian-level masters to break through the formation and cause huge casualties to the Lianyun Sect. Tian Lingzhi So they decided to break the pill because the opponent was strong and the other was because of guilt. Tianting and Tianyue also had the same idea. They also wanted to sacrifice themselves and die together with the enemy, but the appearance of Hai Long and the retreat of the enemy did not give them this chance. The two knew that although they were wrong, they could never die easily because after all, they were the strongest masters of Lianyun Sect now. If even they died, no one would be able to resist the enemy's attack. For this reason, the two went to Hailong to find them. Xuantian Bingzhi made a bold decision. They first attracted Hai Long here in the name of worshiping his ancestors, and then granted him the three most powerful immortal weapons of Lian Laogui VV Yun Sect. Then when Hai Long couldn't hold on any longer, he relied on himself. His powerful cultivation level used the spirit of the fairy spirit to assist him in conquering the fairy weapons. However, the power of the three fairy weapons was something they had never thought of before. If it weren't for Hai Long's extremely mysterious cold ice bone manifestation and his perseverance, which inspired his full potential, I am afraid that he would eventually end up with it. None of the three people could survive. At this time, Tianting Tianyue had passed all his cultivation to Hai Long. When the immortal weapon was subdued, the power originally injected into it exploded. Old ghost VV was the timely appearance of Long Xiangyu to conquer the immortal. He put the weapon into it and used his own powerful power to integrate the huge magic power that Hai Long could not bear into every part of his body's meridians. From now on, as Hai Long's cultivation improves, the mana in his meridians will continue to be transformed by him.
Tianting gasped for a few breaths and then said, "Hai Long, although I don't know how you can accumulate the fairy spirit energy we injected, but I can tell you that if you can absorb all the mana from the old ghost, plus your own cultivation, Because. You should be able to reach the level of a loose immortal who has gone through five turns and four nine heavenly tribulations. At that time, the three-level heavenly calamity you will have to deal with will be nothing." If he knew that the nine-level heavenly calamity that Hai Long needs to deal with is the ninth level and not the third level, he would be afraid. I won't be so optimistic anymore. The power of the ninth heavenly tribulation will never be weaker than the ninth turn and forty-nine heavenly tribulations that the loose immortals have to endure.
Hai Long was just thinking about something when he heard a deep voice from outside: "Hai Long, come out." Hearing this voice, Hai Long's whole body was shocked because it was the voice of the Evil Ancestor!
(Someone added my ID, old ghost VV, to the chapter where I had no choice but to protect the fruits of my labor. I hope everyone will forgive me~!)
