The villains are redeemed, and the heroines cry and beg for forgiveness.

Yudora also thought of this, and a smile appeared on her face. She looked at Gu Ran, who was trapped in the triangular crystal cone, with even more tenderness and affection.

At that time, it turned out that he had not forgotten me, but had always remembered me.

Thinking of this, the sea queen felt a sweet warmth in her heart, just like a young girl experiencing her first love.

......

Cheng Youmeng was slapped in the face by Gu Ran, but she was not unhappy at all. In fact, she even wanted Gu Ran to slap her harder.

If Gu Ran really refused, then his sister's "foresight" would not have been wrong, and Gu Ran would not have been a two-timing scumbag.

She was happy to see this happen.

Suddenly, a voice appeared, disrupting the women's thoughts.

"Could it be that Gu Ran refused the first time, but then changed his mind and agreed for some reason? Didn't he want to go to the sea after getting the spatial item? Could it be that this trip to the sea made him change his mind again?"

The voice was neither male nor female, nor could it be discerned from its location within the crowd.

However, it served as a wake-up call for everyone, making them—especially the women—realize their previous blind spots in thinking.

Yes, Gu Ran refused the first time.

But it didn't say it would only happen once. What if Gu Ran agrees next time?

So Gu Ran must have gone through something that led to his transformation.

The reason why Gu Ran asked Xue Yingsong for spatial items this time is very likely the reason for Gu Ran's change.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but look towards the screen to see if Gu Ran had really changed his mind and agreed this time.

The crowd, focused on the light screen, didn't notice a wisp of black smoke suddenly detach from the group and fly towards the bottom of Meteor City.

......

In the light screen.

After obtaining the spatial item, Gu Ran was preparing to find a place to open a spatial portal and go to the sea.

Suddenly, Xue Yingsong said, "If Leng Feng's new student is really your sister, then you'd better find some time to go and see Leng Feng soon."

"Why?" Gu Ran turned her head in confusion.

"The reason why Vermilion Bird City is so eager to cooperate with Azure Dragon City and establish a relationship is because Vermilion Bird City's strength is about to weaken—Cold Phoenix's days are numbered."

Xue Yingsong's eyes were filled with emotion: "This is how the inheritance of spatial ability users is. Although we don't know the exact reason, every spatial ability user usually doesn't live long when they find another spatial ability user, that is, their student."

"This is almost an open secret among the higher-ups of Azure Dragon City and Vermilion Bird City. What's amazing is that although the appearance of a new space ability user marks the death of the old one, no space ability user ever has any intention of harming the new one. It seems that they know their death is unstoppable and they can accept it calmly."

"Our people in Vermilion Bird City have sent word that although Leng Feng killed the martial arts grandmaster from the Far East City last time, he hasn't appeared in any public places or received any guests since that battle. It seems that that battle brought about his premature death. And this invitation for cooperation from Vermilion Bird City proves that point."

"So your sister is about to become the new space ability user in Suzaku City—a special status, a respected identity. However, as far as I know, Leng Feng's new student is probably still quite young. Although there have been very young space ability users in history, since you are her brother, it would be best if you visited her teacher, encouraged her, and cheered her on."

Is Leng Feng going to die?

Gu Ran's pupils contracted slightly.

He still had many questions to ask her, not only about things related to spatial ability users, but also about what happened after he "died".

Why did Leng Feng bury him in that valley?

At first, he thought it was just a coincidence, but now, looking back, the coincidence feels increasingly eerie and familiar.

If he hadn't been buried in that valley, he wouldn't have met the little conch, and so many things wouldn't have happened afterward.

He would not have collected the core of the Merfolk's Ark, nor would he have known some of the Merfolk's secrets, nor would he have gone to the Eye of the Sea to forge his unique and powerful body.

They wouldn't pass through Azure Dragon City when returning to land from the sea, and therefore wouldn't experience as many of the things that happened in Azure Dragon City.

All of this seemed to happen very naturally, but when Gu Ran thought about "fate" and "the destined person," he felt that none of this was simple.

Gu Ran still remembers the sense of familiarity he felt when he first faced that brown bear.

That valley seems to... be hiding some secret.

However, that sense of familiarity was too faint, so although Gu Ran always remembered it, she never considered going back to see it again.

His original plan was to find an opportunity to ask Leng Feng directly, but now...

"It seems I can't run away anymore; I have to make time to go to Vermilion Bird City," Gu Ran thought to himself.

After leaving Xue Yingsong's research lab, Gu Ran returned to her residence.

He didn't immediately open the spatial artifact, but instead sat down and sorted out the thoughts in his mind.

After a while, Gu Ran used a spatial item to teleport to the sea.

The teleportation location provided by Xue Yingsong was actually not far from New Testament City, but this time it was a direct teleportation into the sea, which was more convenient.

"We're still a bit far from where the merfolk are. Let's study these things first." Gu Ran took out the three "Ark Cores" on his body and played with them one by one.

Thanks to the fact that the "Ark Core" can freely change size, Gu Ran can conveniently carry these three important items with him at all times.

"'Ark Core'... The pinnacle of technology from the previous civilization was the 'core' of nine arks. Without these nine triangular crystal cone-shaped 'Ark Cores,' it would be questionable whether the arks built by humans at that time could even move. But why were humans able to concentrate all their resources and technology on this one product? It's not like building a wonder like an ark, where you can just pile up quantity."

This is actually a problem that has always troubled Gu Ran.

"Could it be that these things require some extremely scarce resource? Even with the technology that was far more advanced than it is now, and with all of humanity's technological power gathered together, only nine were built. As the 'core' of the Ark, they ultimately led humanity through the Great Flood."

"'Prophet'... what exactly is his identity? Is he dead or alive?"

Suddenly, Gu Ran felt countless pieces of information flooding into her mind.

This information includes knowledge, simple visual scenes, and various characters...

The massive flow of information was like a flood, threatening to breach Gu Ran's mental defenses and destroy his consciousness.

It's the "Ark Core" in Far East City!

Gu Ran instantly realized which "Ark Core" was launching a sneak attack on him.

The "Ark Core," which had given birth to the "Evil God" of Far East City, suddenly increased in size and then continuously poured in a massive amount of information through the connection between Gu Ran and it.

It's as if they're determined to crush Gu Ran.

"Has this 'Ark Core' been waiting for such an opportunity all along?"

A thought suddenly popped into Gu Ran's mind, which made him extremely wary of the "Ark Core".

The "Ark Core," which he had previously considered an inanimate object, had actually gone into hiding, quietly waiting for its chance to ambush him.

It must be said that something capable of giving birth to the consciousness of an "evil god" is certainly not something to be regarded as an ordinary thing.

Fortunately, Gu Ran had specifically found a place where there was no one else around. Otherwise, the information that had just escaped from his sea of ​​consciousness would have been enough to "fill" the sea of ​​consciousness of those around him to the point of explosion, turning them into complete idiots.

But Gu Ran... felt it was just right.

In a short period of time, no matter how much information the "Ark Core" poured into his sea of ​​consciousness, he did not feel the slightest sense of explosion.

It even gave him a sudden enlightenment in many areas of knowledge, making him more knowledgeable than many veteran researchers.

The "Evil God Ark Core" did not sense anything amiss for the time being and was still diligently trying to inflate Gu Ran.

It was as if it was working in cahoots with Gu Ran, selflessly giving while Gu Ran was ruthlessly taking.

The clouds in the sky come and go, again and again.

I don't know how many clouds came and how many went.

The "core of the Evil God's Ark" finally sensed something was wrong; it seemed to be doing something futile.

I've been trying to get information out of Gu Ran for ages, but Gu Ran has actually absorbed all of it?!

In fact, the "Core of the Evil God's Ark" was not a waste of time.

Even though Gu Ran is a telekinetic, he can receive far more information than the average person.

However, too much information was flooding his consciousness, and the rate at which it was flooded was much faster than he could process it.

Eventually, his sea of ​​consciousness was slowly filled.

If things continue like this, Gu Ran might actually be overwhelmed by the almost boundless sea of ​​information.

However, when he sensed that the digestion speed of his sea of ​​consciousness could not keep up with the replenishment speed, Gu Ran had a flash of inspiration. He divided most of this massive amount of information into the other two "Ark Cores".

He obtained the highest authority for all three "Ark Cores" through blood transfusions, and they are all connected in the same way.

Since you can continuously feed me massive amounts of information, I can also transfer that massive amount of information.

Although the "Ark Cores" are different in function and each has its own expertise.

However, the three "Ark Cores" are identical in terms of information storage.

It may not be as "professional" as the "Evil God's Ark Core" or have as much storage capacity, but that's okay, there are two more waiting for you here.

Therefore, most of the information flow that could have overwhelmed Gu Ran has been diverted to the other two "Ark Cores".

And these two "Ark Cores" did not disappoint Gu Ran's expectations, accepting all such information flow.

"What's wrong, feeling weak? Keep going, I can have more." Gu Ran raised an eyebrow and conveyed the meaning of this sentence to the "Core of the Evil God's Ark" through communication.

The "Core of the Evil God's Ark" trembled slightly, perhaps from anger.

Then the "Evil God Ark Core" abandoned its goal of incinerating Gu Ran and instead turned around, wanting to escape from Gu Ran's side.

"Interesting. It seems this 'Ark Core' is indeed somewhat different." Gu Ran caught up with him.

After being given the highest level of access by Gu Ran's blood, he will have a very mysterious connection with the "Ark Core".
