Peerless: Auspicious Beast's Star Revival Plan

Chapter 167 Exchange and Learning
When Jing Hongchen pushed the wheelchair in, he felt some kind of grand and indescribable force sweeping across him. From his clothes to his skin, and then to his internal organs, all were penetrated by that invisible force, and he was being seen from the inside out.

In just a short moment, a layer of white sweat broke out on his back.

Xi Hongchen, who was sitting in a wheelchair with a pale face, just lowered his head and noticed nothing.

Jing Hongchen immediately became alert. He clenched the wheelchair handles with both hands, causing the wood to creak, and stared at Di Feng with a wary look on his face.

The tall blonde woman simply curled her eyes at him with a half-smile on her face. The three golden scales between her brows glowed with a barely detectable bloody light. It was not evil, but gave off an inexplicable sense of terror.

Under his gaze, the blood light slowly dissipated.

"Interesting." Wang Rui said with a smile.

What did that sentence say?

Woman, you aroused my interest.jpg
Xi Hongchen's luck is really interesting.

Although Di Feng's body is carved from pure natural plant materials, the blood of the emperor's auspicious beast was also added during the polishing process. The ability of the auspicious beast itself can naturally be used, and using part of the ability of the Eye of Destiny is definitely not a problem.

Wang Rui was originally just curious about Jing Hongchen's daughter, who did not appear in the original text, so he wanted to spy on her fate.

In the vision of the Eye of Destiny, the thread that represented Xi Hongchen's connection with others was still there, but the light mist emitted by himself was disintegrating. It was just forcibly held by the phantom of the mirror containing the sun and the moon, and did not completely dissipate.

She had died not long ago, most likely in the Far North, because her meridians were filled with ice-attribute soul power as sharp as a knife, and there was a bloody light band connecting her to the Far North and the Snow Empress.

That light belt was deeper than the simple cause and effect of life and death, and it was as solid as a lifeline that had already been written. It was only because Xue Di was replaced by Lian Xue that a large part of the blood-red light at the other end of the light belt fell to the extreme north.

And this Xi Hongchen was forced to stay in the human world.

Logically speaking, the few descriptions of resurrection from the dead that have appeared in several Douluo works are all related to gods, but in the Douluo world, gods are people who are more powerful than humans. If more powerful people can do it, then humans can also do it at a higher price.

Over the span of tens of thousands of years, there have indeed been several times when the boundary between life and death was broken.

One of them is the martial spirit inherited by the royal family of the Sun-Moon Empire on another continent.

The sun and the moon are yin and yang, and the mirror represents yin and yang, reversing life and death.

The Sun and Moon Royal Family can draw a martial soul lottery with an extremely small probability. It is an extremely powerful and useless self-martial soul fusion skill that can only be used by a soul master with the twin martial souls of Sun Shadow and Moon Shadow - Yin Yang Mirror.

The white face represents life and the red face represents death. He can resurrect or kill a person regardless of the difference in strength, reversing life and death.

This thing does sound a bit primitive, but Xuanwu, Jinwu, and Qilin have all appeared before, so Wang Rui is not surprised to see such a martial spirit.

Such power to decide life and death is obviously beyond the standard, and the cost of using it is naturally terrifying - the user's own life.

In more extreme cases, a child who has just awakened the Sun and Moon Twin Martial Souls and is able to use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique can be transformed into a fully-fledged Extreme Douluo.

It's a pity that this martial soul fusion technique can only affect soul masters below the god level... otherwise Wang Rui might really be so desperate that he would try to find a way to bring the Sun and Moon royal family to the Beast Sect to open a lottery.

This was the foundation for the Xu family to sit firmly on the throne of the emperor in the early days, and it was also the reason why the continent was named after the sun and the moon.

However, as the Sun and Moon royal families introduced more powerful bloodlines from generation to generation, it became increasingly difficult for future generations to draw the Sun and Moon twin martial spirits in their martial spirit lotteries.

After generations of struggle for the throne, the Sun and Moon Royal Family also gave up some things over a long period of time, such as respecting the Sun Martial Spirit as the orthodox and banishing the Moon Martial Spirit as a side branch.

The martial soul of the Sun-Moon Emperor today, the Purple Brilliant Sky-Destroying Dragon, comes from the bloodline of a powerful queen several generations ago, which overwhelms the originally inherited solar martial soul.

Compared to the illusory but extremely costly Yin-Yang Mirror, the Sun and Moon royal family obviously chose to introduce stronger bloodlines and strengthen the power of the royal family itself by marrying a powerful mutant martial arts soul master with no background.

As for the Yin-Yang Mirror that can reverse life and death...to this day, only some legends remain circulating in the Sun-Moon Empire.

The last time the Sun and Moon Twin Martial Spirits appeared in the world was when they were Wen Qiang’s lover, Princess Xu Jing, who had led the Sun and Moon Empire to fight against natural disasters on Douluo Continent during the collision of continents.

Before the collision between Sun, Moon and Douluo, it is impossible to determine how many times the Yin-Yang Mirror had appeared.

…It is actually very difficult for human heritage to carry a history measured in tens of thousands of years.

Wang Rui suddenly felt a little emotional.

Humans with martial spirits are too powerful. When they use their powerful strength in the struggle, it is too easy to destroy the building that stores the sealed data.

To destroy a library full of books, humans without martial spirits would need to bring enough firewood, and might even fail due to fire prevention measures and have to find and destroy the books one by one... but high-level spirit masters only need one spirit skill.

Perhaps this is why the civilization of Douluo World has always remained stagnant.

What's more, not all civilizations regard recording history as a top priority like Wang Rui's hometown.

As for who this person with the dual martial spirits of sun and moon is now, he doesn't care, because this person is dead anyway.

What Wang Rui is more concerned about now is the short-lived appearance of this "orthodox" soul master with dual martial souls of Sun and Moon, how deep his relationship with the Hongchen family is, whether this means that the political situation in the Sun-Moon Empire will change, and how much benefit the Beast Sect can gain from the Holy Spirit Church and the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce.

The way he looked at Jing Hongchen became very "friendly".

On the other side, seeing that Di Feng was still smiling and not saying anything, Jing Hongchen's heart was also beating fast.

He knew that Dragon Emperor Douluo had just used unknown means to observe him and his daughter, but he didn't know whether she had seen Xi Hongchen's actual situation.

In fact, Xi Hongchen not only lost her left hand, but also suffered serious injuries in other parts of her body. Most of her meridians were damaged, and her soul power could hardly function. It was a miracle that she could crawl back alive from the Far North.

Today, Xi Hongchen is still breathing, but he is being kept alive by the healing soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire and Cui Danxing's high-level elixirs.

Jing Hongchen didn't dare to tell Di Feng everything directly, for fear that he would find it troublesome, so she turned it down without even asking - as long as Di Feng was willing to understand her situation, everything would be fine, and at worst she could just raise the price later.

Unexpectedly, the next question asked by the other party was completely beyond Jing Hongchen's expectations.

"You want to use the Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition to send your daughter and grandchildren out of Sun and Moon for refuge?"

“This…” Jing Hongchen’s smile froze.

"The Emperor of Sun and Moon has been ill and hasn't gotten out of bed for several years. Old Deng, who snatched the throne from his brother, has become more and more suspicious... Xu Tianran is too powerful and perfect as a crown prince." Wang Rui seemed to be talking to himself, but also seemed to be hinting at something. "Master Hongchen must have already chosen his side. Send your blood relatives out of the most dangerous muddy water, and wait for the situation to settle down... So Master Hongchen is ready to agree to the exchange plan proposed by Shrek Academy, so that even if you really stand on the wrong side and lose in the fight for the throne, your grandchildren can stay in Shrek and not return to the Sun and Moon Empire. Who knows, they can even use Shrek's power to avenge you." Jing Hongchen's eyes finally revealed a hint of fear when he looked at Di Feng.

Only a few senior members of the academy knew that Shrek Academy had sent a letter requesting an exchange program with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, and Jing Hongchen himself had never revealed that he was inclined to agree to this.

"It is better for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor to communicate and learn with the Beast Sect than with Shrek." Wang Rui said with a smile.

The new soul beast and soul master equal contract has only been simplified at present. Wang Rui is confident that he can improve the research and development of souls during the exchange and learning period.

He will recruit a group of students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and Shrek Academy, and use these people to bring the concept of "soul" to the attention of the top forces on both sides before the second competition.

Naturally, I can’t let Jing Hongchen go.

Jing Hongchen was stunned, and his first reaction was to decline politely, "This... The Beast Sect is a sect after all..."

“To be honest, we are different from ordinary sects. Our members are just gathered under the same philosophy and are not subject to many restrictions. Recently, the Beast Sect also has the intention to establish a formal academy, and we need to learn from an institution that excels in research, such as the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.” Wang Rui said with a smile.

This was indeed a very clever statement. Jing Hongchen stroked his beard and was secretly delighted for a moment. He was indeed very satisfied with Mingdetang's current research competition mechanism.

If Di Feng said that the Beast Sect wanted to learn the soul guide technology of Mingde Hall, it would not have such an effect - Mingde Hall still has several civilian soul guides that flowed out of Xincheng and has not yet fully studied them.

Seeing Jing Hongchen's reaction, Wang Rui's expression became more friendly. "Let's not talk about anything else. Our sect's history is not much shorter than Shrek Academy, and our research on martial spirits, especially beast martial spirits, is no worse than Shrek's. What's more, we pay less attention to family background than Shrek. Moreover, our sect has excellent accommodation. The visiting students can stay in a single room with a private bathroom, unlike Shrek Academy, which has too many students due to its reputation, so it has to compete with 400 people for the bathroom."

Oh no, he really read Shrek.

Jing Hongchen:……?
"My younger generation is studying at Shrek." Wang Rui said, "I am really shocked by the accommodation conditions at Shrek."

"This... If our academy agrees to exchange with the Beast Sect, then can our students from the five cities of the Beast Sect visit and study?"

Jing Hongchen was indeed very moved.

Of course it wasn't because 400 people from Shrek Academy were fighting for one toilet - damn, this sentence was like a spell that couldn't be shaken off his mind - he certainly knew that the treatment of junior and senior students in a school like Shrek couldn't be the same, and the treatment of senior and junior researchers in Mingde Hall was also very different, but 400 people fighting for one toilet -

Jing Hongchen forced himself to stop thinking about it.

Not to mention that Xincheng's civilian soul guides have many ingenious ideas that are worth learning from Mingde Hall - in fact, Jing Hongchen is vaguely uneasy about this. After all, the Beast Sect said that they only research civilian soul guides. Is that really civilian technology?

Who will give priority to developing civilian soul guides? Who knows whether it is a military-to-civilian conversion?

The ingenuity of Xincheng Soul Guidance Device has never appeared in the soul guidance devices of Shrek and Douluo Three Kingdoms.

So how dare they allow a sect to grow to this extent?

Imagine if such a force was spread throughout the country and the enemy country, possessed technology that was not controlled by the country, and even had one-third (considering that Minghuang Douluo Ye Xishui did not seem to be on bad terms with Long Xiaoyao and Di Feng, it was very likely two-thirds) of the continent's top combat power within the Sun Moon Empire... Jing Hongchen felt a little chilly.

All I can say is that Jing Hongchen is not an old Douluo, and he doesn’t know how arrogant the huge organization called the Academy is above the Beast Sect.

Having said that, apart from the soul guide device, another strength of the Beast Sect also made Jing Hongchen very excited.

Pill.

The soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire rely heavily on elixirs for their training, but the elixirs of the Sun-Moon Empire have great side effects and their quality is far inferior to that of Douluo Three Kingdoms, not to mention Cuidan.

Every year, the Sun-Moon Empire has to spend a large amount of money to purchase elixirs through the Moon Shadow Chamber of Commerce, but fortunately, Moon Shadow also has a huge demand for rare metals, and everyone has transactions with each other, so not much wealth has been lost so far.

In today's Douluo world, except for a certain time traveler, no one is aware of the concept of trade surplus/deficit, but this is enough to make Jing Hongchen feel vaguely uneasy.

"Mingdetang wants to learn the technology of making medicine, so our sect welcomes it naturally." Wang Rui said, "The way of making medicine is to relieve the suffering of all living beings, and there is nothing to hide."

However, the Sun and Moon Realm is rich in rare metals and has a strong gold aura. The properties of medicinal materials are naturally shifted, and the side effects of refining them into pills are even greater. Even though Mingdetang has learned how to refine pills, it still has to purchase raw materials from Douluo.

"Then I will agree on behalf of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, and a group will be selected after the competition." Jing Hongchen stroked his beard and nodded.

"In that case, I'm sure Master Hongchen wouldn't mind agreeing to a small, mutually beneficial request of mine."

"please say."

"I want three places from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy." Wang Rui narrowed his eyes. "An old friend of mine has some grievances with Dragon God Douluo and wants to defeat Shrek Academy. But it is not convenient for her to directly face Shrek Academy now, so she wants her disciples to come forward and defeat Shrek."

Jing Hongchen thought to himself, please stop making friends out of nothing. Everyone knows about the grudge between you and Moon.

But he didn't show it on his face. He just said that there was only more than a month before the competition and he had no time to practice cooperation.

Wang Rui sneered, "Including a twenty-year-old Soul Saint and a fifteen-year-old Soul Sect."

A twenty-year-old Soul Saint... that could only be one person.

The disciple of Minghuang Douluo Ye Xishui and the saint of the Holy Spirit Church, Lan Fuzi.

Haha, this old friend is really an old friend, and this grudge is really a grudge.

Jing Hongchen wiped the sweat from his forehead and changed his tone, "The remaining month is naturally enough for the children to get used to each other. Senior, you can send them to Mingde Hall to train with our participating players in the near future."

"As for your daughter." Wang Rui glanced at Xi Hongchen who was unconscious in a wheelchair, "Cui Danxing can help her reshape her meridians, but if she wants to regenerate her broken limbs, she has to ask the Emerald Swan Biji herself to come forward. Even if Biji does it herself, the amount of natural treasures and various resources consumed will not be insignificant."

The cause and effect between Xi Hongchen and Xue Di seemed to be written in stone. At the same time, the Xue Di embryo and the Ice Scorpion Soul Bone appeared at the Xing Luo Empire auction house. Xi Hongchen's left arm, her meridians seemed to be shattered by ice energy, and the frostbite spread radiating from her left shoulder to her entire body.

This means that Jing Hongchen has something that Huo Yuqing must get.

"I also want your daughter's harvest in the Far North."

Fake corpse
I am so tired... I worked seven night shifts in February, seven night shifts and one weekend day shift in March, and nine night shifts plus one 24-hour night and day shift in April.

We work the night shift from 8am to 11:30am the day before (most likely overtime until 1am), come back at 4:30pm to continue working, and can’t go to bed until after midnight. Then the nurses who are doing well will make a phone call every two hours, while the less well-off ones will be too busy to sleep if there are serious patients. Then the next day, we start issuing medical orders at around 6am, hand over at 8am, and start working as usual until 11:30am (most likely overtime), go home to rest for an afternoon and a night, and then get up at 6am to work as usual…

(Loudly play the victim!) (Trying to gain sympathy!)
(I bought all the Wilderness items but I still haven’t finished shaping my face…)
(There is no point in this talk. The main point is that if you persuade people to study medicine, you will be struck by lightning. I will help all high school students who are preparing to join the medical industry to give up for free...)
