Use first and repay later: Advance the future cultivation fruits-Chapter 445 - 198, The True Name of Mysterious Energy_3
Councilman Yan was silent for a moment, then said, "This injury of mine... involves a level 1.9 civilization, similar to a curse that extends from my soul to my body, preventing me from evolving further, constantly absorbing my life force, with the curse growing stronger. Once I resurrect, the life force of a normal human body is too weak, and this curse will cause instant death."
"Curse?" Lin Qing frowned.
"Left by a Star-level Divine Officer, trying to force me to submit." Councilman Yan shook his head slowly, "Don't worry about me, I can still hold on for a few more years."
Lin Qing pondered for a moment and said nothing.
Actually, the Authority of the Black Flame Clone could help restore Councilman Yan's body and extend his life by thirty thousand years, even if it can't lift the curse, it would certainly help.
However, Chu Hongjun and the other two have many secrets deliberately kept from Councilman Yan, such as Authority, relic intelligence, etc., none of which were disclosed.
Clearly, they were guarding against Councilman Yan.
He naturally wouldn't easily expose himself either.
"Hmm... maybe ask Chu Hongjun..." frёeωebɳovel.com
...
Dawn Group.
"Does Dean Chu think I shouldn't save Councilman Yan?" Lin Qing asked.
Chu Hongjun glanced at him and said calmly, "Even if you keep it from him, not letting him know this is Authority, he would still suspect, and you would reveal the Black Flame Clan avatar, which is the risk."
Lin Qing nodded slightly, saying, "I understand Dean Chu's point, but... I don't quite understand, why does Dean Chu defend against Councilman Yan so much?"
"Of course to be cautious."
Chu Hongjun said indifferently, "With Councilman Yan's strength of the Star Abyss Sixth Layer, after he left Earth back then, if that unknown Star-level Divine Officer from level 1.9 civilization truly wanted to kill him, do you think he could have returned alive?"
"That's indeed strange." Lin Qing nodded.
"That Star-level Divine Officer laid the curse on Yan Que, intending to take this opportunity to subdue him."
Chu Hongjun said, "Though Yan Que concluded from the other's use of wormholes, he could only determine the other is from level 1.9 civilization, but doesn't know which level 1.9 civilization, this coincidence makes me suspect it might be the handiwork of the Nine Star Civilization."
He glanced at Lin Qing, saying, "I don't trust human nature, whether Yan Que will betray in the future, whether he will be subdued by that Star-level Divine Officer, these are all uncertain matters, so I can never truly trust him."
Lin Qing no longer said much.
After all, he wasn't bound to save Councilman Yan, just asking in passing.
"By the way."
Lin Qing looked around the hall of the Dawn Group and asked, "Where's my cousin? Why hasn't she come out?"
"She's currently unavailable." Chu Hongjun glanced at him and said, "Though she hasn't intended to tell you the truth yet, but with your current strength, you are qualified to make decisions."
Lin Qing asked, "Truth?"
"It's nothing too significant."
Chu Hongjun said calmly, "It's just that she possesses extraordinary talent, capable of consciousness upload, having abandoned the physical body to become an information life form, and from a certain perspective, she is already immortal."
"What?" Lin Qing was momentarily stunned.
"The Sky Island Guardian you mentioned earlier, isn't that similar?" Chu Hongjun glanced at him.
Lin Qing shook his head helplessly, saying, "Just for immortality, there's no real need to do it this way, I have a better method."
The Holy Text 'Feast Blessing', as long as he lives on, continually offering his own life as a feast of flesh and blood, can let others follow him into immortality.
"Feast Blessing?"
Chu Hongjun glanced at him, saying, "Your cousin's ability to transform into information life form is rare in the universe, and can greatly benefit Earth."
"What?" Lin Qing asked.
"I found remnants of the Mechanical Clan in the relics of the previous civilization, but only sufficiently powerful intelligent or information life forms can possibly control it."
Chu Hongjun glanced at him, saying, "Although the hope is small, it's worth trying."
"Mechanical Clan remnants?" Lin Qing was surprised.
"The Mechanical Clan is also a common race in the universe." Chu Hongjun said, "Some civilizations experiencing intelligent lifeforms rebelling against humans is also frequent, Mechanical Clan reaching second-level civilization is normal."
Lin Qing was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is my cousin willing herself?"
"Of course she is." Chu Hongjun said, "In the world of information, whatever she desires is available, how could she refuse?"
Lin Qing sighed and said, "I respect her."
Chu Hongjun acknowledged with a sound, saying, "Just right, the equipment you need to take to the Vacuum Tomb is ready, when the time comes, take it out and let it absorb free energy, the operation is simple."
"Okay." Lin Qing nodded.
...
Time was pressing, Lin Qing dared not waste any, re-entering the Vacuum Tomb of the No.1 relic that day.
This time...
He was to cultivate until he had sufficient power to kill a Star-level Divine Officer before leaving the Vacuum Tomb.
