Chapter 854 Two Kinds of Dependence

Liu Rugo felt utterly helpless about this situation where only the voice could be heard, but no one was seen. Suddenly, he remembered that the transparent old man he had seen before losing consciousness was probably a spirit.

"Are you the same soul from before?" Liu Rugo asked.

"Yes," Xie Yuelao answered truthfully.

Having received confirmation, Liu Rugo continued, "So, you're inside my body now? Or more accurately, you're in my mind?"

“Yes, that’s right,” Xie Yuelao replied dismissively.

Liu Rugo was helpless, but there was nothing she could do about this intangible thing, which was also inside her body.

"Then who are you? What do you want to do by entering my mind?" Liu Rugo didn't know whether the other party was good or bad to her. Although she couldn't do anything about it, she still had to be vigilant and sharp.

Xie Yue Lao was very dissatisfied with Liu Rugo's "ungrateful" behavior: "You brat, I helped you open up your meridians, and instead of thanking me, you come to question me! I was wondering how my ring ended up with you!"

Have the meridians been unblocked?

Although Liu Rugo was puzzled, she relaxed and indeed sensed spiritual energy, which she could absorb into her body. However, besides this, Liu Rugo also sensed two other auras, but she didn't know what they were.

Sensing the spiritual energy, Liu Rugo suppressed her joy. She first believed the soul's words, then questioned the two other energies besides the spiritual energy. Liu Rugo clenched her right fist and brought it to her mouth, feigning a light cough, her face slightly flushed.

"Um, thank you so much, thank you for helping me open my meridians. But what about the other two types of energy besides spiritual energy?"

The Evil Matchmaker in Liu Rugo's mind, upon hearing Liu Rugo's thanks, displayed an extremely arrogant expression. If he had a physical form, he would likely have his head slightly raised, rolling his eyes, and his beard probably blowing in the air. However, upon hearing Liu Rugo's subsequent question, he suddenly paused.

Still a piece of trash

Two other auras? No way! There are actually two?

The Old Man of the Moon asked incredulously, "Are you sure there are two? Tell me what it feels like!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Rugo closed her eyes and quietly sensed it: "Hmm, one is a very clear feeling that is sometimes transparent and sometimes hidden. The other feeling is a little turbid and very real, yet it feels like it can change in a thousand ways."

After hearing Liu Rugo's description, Xie Yuelao was both surprised and delighted. One type could only be sensed by those who could cultivate the Soul System, while the other could only be sensed by those who could cultivate the Illusion System.

From the beginning to the present, no one on the mainland has ever been able to cultivate both the Soul System and the Illusion System at the same time!

Such extraordinary talent can truly be called monstrous!

Suppressing his excitement, Xie Yue Lao said in a trembling voice, "You, you, don't be anxious. It's not good for you to stand here. Here's what we'll do: don't worry, I will never harm you. Go home first, and after you've made sure no one will bother you, I'll explain everything to you slowly."

Liu Rugo hesitated. The fact that he could open her meridians meant he was very powerful. Now that he was inside her body and claimed the ring on her hand was his, it wasn't hard to guarantee that he wouldn't harm her if he was displeased. But if he wanted to harm her, he shouldn't have opened her meridians in the first place, and she hadn't sensed any malice from him.

There's a saying: "You can know a person's face but not their heart!"

Xie Yue Lao sensed Liu Rugo's hesitation and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. If that person's actions hadn't already broken the rules, he really wouldn't have been obligated to help this kid. But it was good that this child could think things through before acting; it was better than being foolish enough to blindly believe what others said.

Annoyed as he was, the only way to gain the kid's trust was to reveal some information to him.

"Boy, you can call me Evil Matchmaker. What's your name?"

Liu Rugo was somewhat inclined to trust the old man, but not completely, and wanted to see what else he would say: "Liu Rugo."

"Fine. Then let me ask you, Liu Rugo! Do you still want to endure the previous insults, beatings, sarcasm, being called trash and useless, and having to swallow your anger without any power to fight back? Don't you have anyone you want to protect? Don't you want to know about your own background? Don't you want to know what kind of miserable life your family, who went through so much trouble to send you out, are living now? Do you dare to say that you don't care at all? Let me tell you, those two auras you mentioned before can only be sensed by those who can cultivate Soul Masters and Illusionists. Without guidance, you are still a piece of trash!"

In truth, Xie Yue Lao's hysterical outburst was devoid of much emotion. His earlier insults stemmed from a chance encounter with a member of a powerful family who suffered from a congenital deficiency, and this was the kind of life they led.

Liu Rugo's bloodline can only be opened by herself, so it was exactly the same as her congenitally severed bloodline before. Therefore, following the steps should not be a problem.

There's no big problem telling Liu Rugo that both Soul Masters and Illusionists can cultivate; she'll be told sooner or later anyway.

After being roared at by Xie Yue Lao, Liu Ruge felt all the resentment, anger, and anger that had been building up for years surge into her heart.

When had Liu Rugo ever been treated like this? In her past life in the Leng family, she ignored all sorts of disdainful, angry, dissatisfied, and provocative gazes directed at her because she was contemptuous! But now, she could only endure it, powerless to defend herself even when beaten.

This kind of posture is not suitable for Liu Rugo!

He should be someone who is the center of attention, admired, envied, and feared by everyone!

Liu Rugo took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "I agree with your idea now, but I have no interest in knowing about my background and family, nor do I want to know, and I don't want to get involved in the disputes there."

The Old Man of the Evil Moon showed no mercy: "However, if you want to rise above all others and reach the highest point, you must know your origins and resolve the previous disputes!"

Xie Yue Lao could sense Liu Rugo's sudden change in aura. He wanted to become stronger, to look down upon the people of this world, and to become the supreme being. But before that, troubles might keep coming.

Liu Rugo frowned in thought, but was unexpectedly interrupted by a silvery voice. Liu Rugo couldn't help but find it a little funny; how come she always managed to find a way to stall?

"Brother Ming, what are you standing there for?" Leng Shuang quickly moved to Liu Rugo's side and affectionately took his arm.

Sure enough, the next second Liu Rugo immediately and subtly pulled her arm out, taking a small step to the side.

Chapter 855 Full of Worries

Yet it also became the brightest star there, worshipped, respected, looked up to, and feared by thousands.

Even in his most wretched state, he was still the strongest being at that time.

Now, she has a loving, protective, and doting father, Leng Xiuhun; and a cute younger sister, Leng Shuang, who understands her and is always by her side.

Even knowing that he was born with a blocked meridian, he did not hate, despise, ridicule, or look down on himself, and he did not give up any opportunity to cultivate himself.

Now, he can cultivate and become stronger, which is different from his previous thoughts. Before, he wanted to take revenge on the Leng family who abandoned him and to make Leng Huijun suffer a crushing defeat. But now, he wants to protect Leng Xiuhun, Leng Shuang, and this mansion that belongs to Leng Xiuhun.

This isn't Earth; there are no laws here. No one knows what the future holds. Besides, the family behind Leng Shuang is definitely not simple. If I want Leng Shuang to be safe, then I must become stronger!

At this moment, Liu Rugo's longing became extremely intense. He had never cared about anyone before, and had never so desperately wanted someone to remain safe and sound under his protection.

It should not be underestimated.

Now that we have 810, and two people at once, the only way to protect those we want to safeguard is to ensure that no one can pose a threat to them.

Thinking of this, Liu Rugo's breathing became increasingly rapid, her face flushed, and the blue in her eyes was covered by a deep purple. Suddenly, a beam of azure light burst forth from Liu Rugo's body, instantly filling the entire room.

However, this didn't last long, and everything returned to normal. Liu Rugo's breathing calmed down, her complexion returned to normal, and her eyes were still azure, though she looked somewhat dazed. Xie Yuelao, on the other hand, watched Liu Rugo with a smile, nodding occasionally.

Liu Rugo, who had been stunned, slowly exhaled, her eyes regaining their usual clarity. She parted her thin lips slightly and asked, "Am I at the beginner level? Is it really necessary to make such a commotion just from breaking through to the beginner level?"

Only now did Liu Rugo feel truly at ease. He could really cultivate now, and he had even broken through to the next level.

Xie Yue Lao said definitively, "You've reached the beginner level, but beginners don't usually cause such a commotion. It's just that you..." He paused, rolled his eyes, "You could say you're a prodigy, so this isn't surprising, not surprising at all."

"Oh! Right! Have you chosen a cultivation technique yet?" Old Man Xieyue asked idiotically, as if he had suddenly remembered something.

Liu Rugo did indeed look at Xie Yuelao as if he were an idiot. Putting aside the fact that Liu Rugo had to be born with a congenital inability to move meridians, even if she wasn't, she still had to advance to become a martial artist.

Xie Yue Lao was puzzled by the way Liu Rugo was looking at him. After realizing what was happening, he said somewhat awkwardly, "I forgot. But I have a cultivation technique here that can be practiced even by beginners."

"Oh—" Liu Rugo's voice rose in pitch as she raised an eyebrow, "What level is it? Is it very high?"

The cultivation techniques here are divided into four levels from highest to lowest: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Each level is further divided into low, medium, and high grades.

Xie Yuelao cast a disdainful glance at Liu Rugo, outwardly appearing indifferent but inwardly still a materialistic fellow. He snorted and slipped into the ring on Liu Rugo's hand.

After a while, he came out with a blood-red scroll in his hand, and his eyes were somewhat cryptic as he looked at the scroll.

Then he raised his head and said to Liu Rugo with some hesitation, "Are you sure you want to cultivate this technique? Actually, you can wait until you become a martial artist and then choose a technique from the library of your Leng family."

When Xie Yuelao took out the "Evil Blood Technique," he regretted it somewhat. Was it really right for him to place such a heavy burden on this child's shoulders? The child could clearly live peacefully under the protection of the Leng family patriarch, while he...

"I want this technique." A firm voice rang in Xie Yuelao's ear.

Liu Rugo saw it. She saw the guilt and worry in Xie Yue Lao's eyes. He was worried about her, and that cultivation technique was definitely not simple. She was sure that the conspiracy behind her background was not to be underestimated.

However, considering that Xie Yuelao had only known Liu Rugo for less than a day, he was already thinking of her best interests, and Liu Rugo was sure to handle all the troubles that would follow. Moreover, given Xie Yuelao's strength, he could have easily controlled Liu Rugo to cultivate this technique, but he didn't do so.

Now that we have them, and two of them at once, the only way is to stand at the pinnacle of this continent so that those we want to protect will be free from any threat.

Thinking of this, Liu Rugo's breathing became increasingly rapid, her face flushed, and the blue in her eyes was covered by a deep purple. Suddenly, a beam of azure light burst forth from Liu Rugo's body, instantly filling the entire room.

However, this didn't last long, and everything returned to normal. Liu Rugo's breathing calmed down, her complexion returned to normal, and her eyes were still azure, though she looked somewhat dazed. Xie Yuelao, on the other hand, watched Liu Rugo with a smile, nodding occasionally.

Chapter 856 Extremely Sacred

Ye Tiancheng solemnly said to himself, "Right now, the gold-attribute gas of heaven and earth has only just been absorbed. In a month, based on my training speed and previous experience, it should be able to raise it to the second or third level. As for the other attributes of the gas of heaven and earth, especially the fire-attribute gas, I am working hard, and perhaps I can raise it to the level of the sixth level."

Ye Tiancheng immediately sat down without hesitation, took out the gas stone, and began to practice.

A month is too short. He can't waste any time now. He has to put all his time into practice and make the most of it to improve his skills!

Everything returned to calm. Ye Tiancheng's matter did not cause any ripples, and even the gambling agreement between Ye Tiancheng and Zichuan was not leaked. Apart from those who were present at the time, no other disciples knew about it.

In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed.

At this moment, as the sun rose in the sky, all six of the seven peaks of the Silver Immortal Sect, except for the seventh peak where Ye Tiancheng was located, shone with colorful light. Countless virtual shadows of spiritual beasts also appeared, floating around these six peaks, making this place seem extremely sacred.

On these six mountain peaks, life was vibrant and lively. Every disciple's face radiated joy. Lanterns were hung, and everyone was busy. A rich New Year's atmosphere enveloped the entire immortal realm. Today is New Year's Day.

During the seventh peak, Ye Tiancheng stepped out of the room for the first time in more than ten years.

After Ye Tiancheng came out, he looked at the sky, reflecting on the past. A trace of painful recollection lingered on his face. He said to himself, "Dad, Mom, Ling Lao, today is New Year's Day. This is the first year since Feng left you. Feng'er misses you so much."

After a while, Ye Tiancheng turned around again, the pain on his face gone. He prepared to go home and continue practicing.

After all, he hadn't had his parents for a year. But for Ye Tiancheng, this wasn't just a year.

Just then, Hei Ba's voice suddenly rang in Ye Tiancheng's ears: "Feng'er, come up the mountain!"

Upon hearing the voice beside him, Ye Tiancheng was suddenly stunned. He turned straight to the mountaintop and looked at it with a look of wild joy on his face.
