Collapse, women's clothing strategy Qiyana, then

Her life was also slipping away.

Cocolia took her away, but she didn't intend to let the gem remain inside her.

She has not yet become a Herrscher, and taking out the gem will not cause her to die immediately.

But they will linger in pain.

Next up is Bai Yan.

The boy lay quietly on the experimental table, completely absorbed in sensing the hyperdimensional space.

It's almost there.

The gate was already within reach.

"It seems there's no point in continuing to observe," the chief said, standing up and drawing a conclusion.

"What should I do with this person?"

"Let's leave it for now and let Lady Cocolia decide what to do with it."

"Pity."

"Yes, it's a pity. It was just a little short of a qualitative change."

"He's only slightly better than the previous body, but successful bodies like that are extremely rare."

"It's a pity that fate took him away."

"Yes, if only..."

Whispering could be heard constantly, and the entire laboratory entered a more relaxed state.

The experiment ended in failure.

Cocolia hasn't gotten angry yet; perhaps she's already accepted the outcome.

They can survive and even continue to be reused.

Wendy is going to die, and Bai Yan will be replaced by a better body at some unknown time.

The chief physician pondered for a moment, then looked toward the operating table.

stunned.

That original body is gone!

He stood there, stunned, without reacting for a long time.

The next moment, exclamations filled the laboratory, and the relaxed atmosphere vanished.

As he shouted, everyone turned to look.

The person in charge called out, and the other doctors in white coats followed suit, because they all knew what had happened...

Hyperdimensional space.

Cool water washed over Bai Yan's body, and the pain receded like the tide.

The lines on her legs that represented erosion ceased, as if they had fallen into a deathly silence.

She ran desperately through the clear water in her long boots, her long hair dancing wildly as if in a howling wind.

Almost instantly upon entering, Jingliu noticed Bai Yan's abnormality.

He crouched down and carefully searched Bai Yan's body, staring intently at the terrifying lines on his thighs.

"Is it the erosion of some kind of force? It seems to have been nearing its end before he even arrived here. If it continues, his legs will be completely ruined."

"It doesn't look like he did it himself; someone deliberately implanted this thing into his body."

Jingliu stared at the Gem of Desire, already imagining a scene where Bai Yan was captured and experimented on.

Almost, nearly identical.

After escaping the immortal ship, Jingliu wandered the universe and witnessed many things.

She was familiar with this situation.

A surge of killing intent welled up within her, and even the unusual clear water of the superdimensional space could barely suppress the power within her.

A sudden surge of anger welled up inside me, as if a demonic force were at work.

But the next moment, the change in Bai Yan interrupted her emotions.

A sudden gust of wind arose, and the wind began to slowly rotate around Bai Yan.

The spiraling wind continued to rise, and the clear water beneath their feet seemed to be stirred, beginning to ripple in concentric circles.

The wind grew stronger, and Jingliu couldn't help but stand up, gazing at this unusual gust of wind.

After a moment, her gaze returned to the gem she longed for.

"It's not very powerful, but it... Oh right, this thing was brought in by Xiao Yan."

"So, is it now considered part of his body?"

Just as she was thinking this, the gemstone seemed to respond to her question and immediately began to tremble.

"what?!"

The pale green gemstone seemed to be trying to detach from its body, shaking violently.

Jingliu did not stop her; she had already realized that the gemstone was the source of Bai Yan's body's corruption.

The gemstone vibrated continuously, as if attracted by some force, and gradually began to loosen.

Soon, the gemstone became looser and the vibrations intensified.

Finally, the gem fell off and floated in mid-air.

Then, it floated to the space between Bai Yan's eyebrows.

Integrate.

At this moment, the lines on Bai Yan's legs disappeared, and in their place, new lines began to spread between his eyebrows.

Jing Liu frowned, and an icy longsword appeared in his hand.

If possible, she would try to help suppress it, since this space cannot completely suppress her own power.

It's easy to lose strength here, as the pressure is quite strong.

However, the clear water beneath their feet suddenly began to surge upwards.

Jingliu was startled, and when he looked down, he found that things were not so simple.

It's not an upward surge, but rather the water level rising out of nowhere.

The waterline engulfed Bai Yan until it completely submerged him.

Jingliu bent down and held it horizontally in his arms, but found that the pattern was spreading suddenly at an accelerated pace, so he quickly put it back in the water, leaving only its face exposed so that it could breathe.

However, the patterns did not disappear completely; they merely receded beyond the waterline.

Seeing this, Jingliu completely submerged Baiyan in the water.

"The erosion has disappeared... Can he breathe in this water?"

Jingliu put his head into the water.

After catching his breath, he raised his head and flung his white hair back.

Water splashed down immediately.

"Sure enough!"

Looking at himself being submerged, Jingliu felt somewhat helpless.

"At this rate, will it bury that boulder too... But he seems to be alright now."

He shook his head and continued looking at Bai Yan.

Volume 1: Chapter 45: I, the Herald of the Wind!

It was unclear how much time had passed before Bai Yan's consciousness gradually returned completely.

Survived?

I think I'm in the water; it seems I've succeeded.

The pain also disappeared.

"Hmm, gurgling... Hmm?!"

Bai Yan suddenly woke up, opened his eyes and immediately got up.

Wow!

Splashing waves.

The moment the boy stood up and threw the Nine-Ball Flag, Jingliu, who was standing next to him, was soaked to the bone again.

Water droplets formed and slowly slid down.

"Uh, Master?"

Jingliu looked at him, then reached out and touched his forehead.

I felt the cold back of my fingers touch it, and only felt at ease after touching it to both sides.

"what happened?"

Jingliu's gaze was intense, determined to get to the bottom of things.

Bai Yan subconsciously touched his knee—

Disappeared? !

"You didn't seem to realize that the gem floated into your brow on its own?"

"It floated into my forehead?!"

Bai Yan subconsciously touched his forehead, but found nothing.

A moment later, he noticed a peculiar sensation within his body.

It seems that I've gained an additional privilege regarding hyperdimensional space?

"felt it?"

"Ah."

Jingliu's expression has improved.

This was not only because Bai Yan was out of danger, but also because she could sense it herself.

I can now bring items into the space, but there are restrictions.

You can bring one item at a time, and it can only be something you can carry yourself.

Bai Yan stretched his body, and the pain and extreme despair he felt earlier subsided, but the feeling still made him very scared.

Jingliu gazed at him quietly, without urging him.

After a moment, Bai Yan spoke.

"I was on a mission, but I never expected to be betrayed."

"The people who captured me wanted to implant a gem into me and turn me into a Herrscher, but the experiment failed."

"If it weren't for the hyperdimensional space, I might have been used as a vessel for the desire for gems, and would have remained there forever."

Jingliu's eyes flickered upon hearing this.

They've already decided to start killing.

"What's your situation now?"

"They're still tied up, and they'll still be tied up if they go back now."

"So I want to combine the two days' opportunities to buy some time and give my companions enough time to act."

Jingliu's gaze shifted slightly upon hearing this.

She said, "Could I come back once? I'll bring something with me, it'll only take five minutes."
