0380 Chapter Seven: The Wisdom of Mortals (Section 86)
Ai Luogensi is right. Only by personally experiencing the way of sublimation arranged by Qu Yun can we understand what an incredible opportunity this is.
Many schools of extraordinary people emphasize gradual progress, laying a solid foundation, and not rushing to advance. This certainly has their reasons.
The crazy efficiency improvements of Zhen Cheng and Ai Luogensi are not the kind of protagonists in Xianxia novels like Long Aotian, who can always surpass their peers by several realms because of their miraculous talents and incredible opportunities.
The adaptation of the body and soul, the exploration and learning of the newly encountered dimensions and the original level of the world, as well as the familiarity and control of their own new powers, will all become the weaknesses of extraordinary beings like them who are willing to sublimate.
But in fact, these things can be compensated for by talent, hard work, and top educational resources. Only the sublimation realm itself cannot be replaced and it is difficult to find shortcuts.
What's more, the earth swallowed by the fully awakened [Primary Image] will not wait for Zhen Cheng to slowly evolve; the strange murderous intention that is always lurking and lingering will not leave her a chance to grow.
If those extraordinary people who preach step-by-step were given an opportunity to sublimate like Zhen Cheng and others, they would fight for it at all costs.
A higher rank means stronger power, and stronger power means greater benefits, the freedom to do as one pleases, and the foundation for self-preservation.
Regardless of whether the original intention is to dominate the world or to protect something important, who would choose to step into the transcendental realm and not long for power, wealth, freedom, and immortality?
The most terrifying thing is that the two extraordinary ways Qu Yun designed for Sister Zhen Cheng seem to have no side effects so far.
Issues such as using a new perspective to understand the world or becoming familiar with the power to control oneself after jumping to another dimension are just a lack of accumulation and foundation, not a side effect. They are those who have spent hundreds or thousands of years step by step to perform sublimation rituals step by step.
Something that previous generations also had to go through.
As for the emptiness of the soul that is almost annihilated during the sublimation process; the crisis that the door of truth is about to explode; the ecstasy of pain and torture when devouring and merging high-level existences... all of them are within the tolerance of the two of them.
.
There is no doubt that this was all planned by Qu Yun from the beginning. This even made Zhen Cheng have a suspicion that his mentor might have a tendency to tremble.
At this moment, the door of the Mage Tower suddenly opened!
"What?!" Zhen Cheng was shocked.
"How is that possible?" Ai Luogensi also shouted directly.
"I told you not to leave me alone. It's really annoying... Huh? What are you sisters doing?"
Coming in from the gate, with a well-behaved and confused look on his face, who else could be there besides the blond lolita who should have been killed?
Ai Luogensi was shocked beyond words. The scene in front of her was simply unbelievable. If it was just that the person she was supposed to kill appeared in front of her, to be honest, she would not be panicked.
From the destruction of the world to the fantasy life of Blood Candle Castle, they have experienced too much in just a few weeks, and it is long past the time to panic due to unexpected scenes before their eyes.
The reason why she was so shocked was because her newly sublimated state and the surging blood that was still flowing in her body and had not yet calmed down could be so real.
These are the things she took away from the blonde lolita by devouring her flesh and blood, and they cannot be faked.
At this moment, Zhen Cheng was thinking about the performance of the little Lolita. There have always been two identical twin sisters lurking around them alternately? Some kind of clone ability? Or...
"Wait, don't be impulsive!" She thought halfway and quickly stopped Sister A with words. The guy disagreed and took out the gun again.
"Don't worry, I'm... in good condition now!" Ai Luogensi bared her sharp fangs and showed a predatory smile to the little loli at the door.
"This has nothing to do with whether my sister is in good condition or not. I think it is impossible for us to kill her. And you, stop acting. You are the same person who just fought with us and was killed." Zhen Cheng changed the subject.
, towards the blonde lolita.
The latter put away his confused look, put on a playful smile like that of a little girl who succeeded in her prank, and replied: "As expected of the [Killing Poet], how did you see the flaw?"
"Be careful." Ai Luogensi did not listen to Zhen Cheng and put down the gun, but became more vigilant.
The other party handed over the title of [Mricide Poet] and even acted like he knew a lot about the inside story, which made Sister A immediately think of the "destiny" that secretly plotted to take Zhen Cheng's life over and over again.
"First of all, from the moment you fell into a disadvantage to being killed and devoured, your expression didn't show any surprise, fear, or doubt. You always looked like you were enjoying the situation with ease and ease.
If it were in a fierce battle, this level of acting skills would indeed be able to hide from most opponents. But unfortunately, I was not in the battle circle at the time and could completely observe you.
There are not many strong people who are not afraid of death, but there are no people in the world who are caught off guard without any emotional changes.
There is only one possibility that can explain your performance at that time, and that is that you knew in advance what was going to happen. Of course, this formed a paradox. If you knew in advance that you would die, why did you come to fight us to the death?
So although I still can't see how you did it, the flaws at the time are at least enough to convince me that your return after being killed was part of your own plan."
As Zhen Cheng spoke, he walked down the spiral staircase and stood between the blonde Lolita and Sister A. He used his own comfort to control the situation, showing considerable confidence and determination:
"Secondly, even if your resurrection from the dead is shocking enough, there is no reason for us to ignore the corpses all over the street outside, right?
This is not a necessary means to complete the task, but a wanton killing that is completely based on your preference. In the upper city of the Royal Court of Fanbaea, even a bloody anklet would not dare to do this, right?
I feel like if you do this, your identity and background may be no less mysterious than ours, and you are at least blood related to the four Grand Dukes to the extent that you dare to do whatever you want.
Coupled with the bloody anklet that was traced by you before but was ruthlessly abandoned by you, the answer is obvious. You are a member of the Vanbaia royal family, or even... maybe the contemporary Divine Ancestor Holy Emperor himself."
Even the blond lolita herself had to be stunned by such a bold inference.
Behind Zhen Cheng, Ai Luogensi slowly lowered her gun. She understood why Zhen Cheng wanted to stop her from silencing her, and the many strange things she had experienced since entering the upper city area were answered.
