Chapter 64: Terrifying Discovery, Red Shadow Assassination!
"What's wrong with this guy? It's just a name, isn't it? Is it that surprising?" Seeing Zhou Dongshi's shocked expression, Zhuo Yifan didn't realize the information contained in his own name and how much shock it brought to this person.
"Is this explanation enough?"
Lan Ran slowly gathered his spiritual pressure and sneered, thinking that Zhou Dongshi wouldn't make a move against Zhuo Yifan either.
"Hmph! I'll spare you for today. You killed my son, this isn't over!" Zhou Dongshi's expression changed, and he coldly stared at Zhuo Yifan: "Get out of here quickly! If I see you again, I will definitely kill you!"
As they spoke, he hugged Zhou Wubing's body, sprang up, jumped onto the tree trunk, and quickly returned home.
"What's going on? I'm so famous that people are intimidated just by hearing my name?" Even the most obtuse person could sense something unusual in the air. Having killed Zhou Dongsheng's son, logically speaking, he should be trying to kill himself at all costs. But judging from his tone just now, it seemed like he was going to let him off?
Zhuo Yifan was momentarily stunned.
"I originally wanted to tell you this before I left, but I didn't expect such a turn of events, so I'll just tell you now. Your father, Zhu Lie, has great merit towards our Shura Village and is also from the Blood God Temple, so Zhou Dongshi that old good-for-nothing won't dare to touch you." Lan Ran said with a bitter tone.
"Is this related to my father?" Zhuo Yifan was taken aback and hastily asked: "Does Master Lan know where my father is?"
"Your father saved many people in our Shura village, including Zhou Wubing, during the beast tide ten years ago. His life originally belonged to your father, but now you've killed him. Zhou Dongshi naturally has a hard time speaking." Lan Ranshan's smile was faint.
"So that's why Lan Ye and his son have been so good to me, everything that has happened to me is related to my father..." Zhuo Yifan admired his father more and more, daring to stand up and face the beast tide, how strong must he be?
"What is this Blood God Temple?" Zuo Yifan finally asked after a long silence.
"I'm sorry, I've already revealed too much by telling you the three words 'Blood God Temple'. According to the game's rules, we haven't reached that stage yet, and you don't have the right to know." Lan Ran shook her head quietly, smiling with deep meaning: "Go back for now, you're covered in wounds, you should heal them in time and then restart your journey..."
Back at the Blue Dye family home, Zhuo Yifan applied some of Blue Grandfather's special external wound ointment and swallowed two Aggregating Spirit Pills to replenish his energy before immediately entering a third-level deep meditation state, returning himself to the spiritual world for a brief rest.
In the spiritual world, time flows at a different speed than in the mortal realm. Zuo Yi Fan didn't sleep for several days and nights, using meditation to quickly replenish his spirit. After about half an incense stick's worth of time, he slowly opened his eyes and exited the spiritual world.
"What's it like being a Soul Reaper?" Rukia asked calmly.
"I'm now sitting here, observing the world with my soul, and I can outline the outside world with my soul. Entering the spiritual world, transforming the flow of time, cultivating spiritual skills in the shortest time and highest efficiency, restoring my spirit. It's really amazing!" Zhuo Yifan exclaimed, praising without end.
"You fell into enemy hands, but I didn't save you, letting you suffer all the pain. Do you hate me?" Lán Rǎn asked a strange question.
"Disciple understands, Master Lan did this with a purpose, right?" Zhuo Yifan didn't dare to have even half a bit of resentment.
"Not bad, the way to activate meditation is not only through sitting still, but also by opening up the soul's greatest potential under extreme pain. If I were to personally torture you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the heart to be so ruthless. It would be better to leave it to that Soul King instead."
Lan Xue said, "However, what I didn't expect was that you just started and your mental power reached '1', and even activated the Ling Brain. You are much stronger than a one-star primary soul master of the same level. If we also consider your innate soul technique, it's not an exaggeration to say that you're a one-star advanced soul master. Your talent is shocking!"
His eyes were calm and flat, but this remark actually made Zhuo Yifan break out in a cold sweat, although he tried his best to hide it. He didn't expect that even the "Shura's Sting" was detected by him.
"Although it's a bit late in realization, you're indeed a genius." Aizen smiled and didn't dwell on the issue of "Zanpakuto".
"It's all thanks to Master Lan's guidance." Zhuo Yifan said respectfully.
"I only gave you some basic knowledge of soul repair, and didn't do anything substantial. I know you have achieved this much, there must be some extraordinary encounters, but I won't ask about it. Everyone has the right to keep their own secrets, don't they?" Lan Ran said with a smile.
"Nowadays, you have just stepped into the ranks of soul cultivation and are only at the initial stage of meditation. The road is still very long, and the path of soul cultivation requires step-by-step progress. I hope you can remember that no matter when, don't be too ambitious."
"I understand."
Zhuo Yifan showed great respect and reverence for the power of the soul.
"Taking advantage of the opportunity now, I'll pass on some essentials from my soul cultivation to you. In the future, it may come in handy." After a moment of silence, Blue Ink's mental energy was released from his spiritual brain and gradually formed a soul bridge with Zhuo Yifan.
"It may feel a bit numb at first, just bear with it and don't resist. Otherwise, both of us will get hurt."
"En." Zhuo Yifan nodded again, and the power of meditation entered his mind, and his whole body couldn't help but get a thrill. He didn't know whether it was sadness or refreshment. Immediately, various knowledge points about soul cultivation were transmitted continuously.
"What is the relationship between soul and body", "The transformation of the spiritual world and time", "Dream Spirit Heart Sutra"... These are all the rich experiences accumulated by Blue Grandfather on his decades-long journey of spiritual cultivation. This is a kind of preciousness that doesn't need to be spoken.
Unconsciously, Zhuo Yifan felt that his knowledge of soul cultivation had become more substantial.
This process is very warm, just like a mother nursing her young, pouring in the nutrients from her own body. Yet there's also an inexplicable strangeness to it. It always leaves Zhuo Yifan with a feeling of being on edge, as if the calm before his eyes was about to be shattered at any moment...
At this time, a sturdy figure rushed in from outside, and the voice of Le Shi came: "I'm going to die! Scared me to death!"
"What happened?"
Zhuo Yifan had never seen Leishi look so terrified before, his pale face was written all over with panic and loss of control, his lips were even cracked from fear.
"Yifan, take a look at this!"
In comparison, the little loli Du'er was calmer, taking out a round bead that shone like jade. This was a Shadow Bead, capable of capturing an image of a certain important moment.
Liu Yingzhu was also familiar with the mortal world, and it was not uncommon. He curiously took over the pearl, infused spiritual energy into it. A beam of light shot out from within the pearl, a picture unfolded slowly in mid-air, and immediately, an ear-piercing scream was heard.
"Ah! Don't chase me! Don't chase me!"
In the jungle on the screen, a female Taoist is running wildly. Her Taoist robe is enough to prove that she is a Taoist from the Yin City Sect who has come to the Blood Hell for training.
The earth was shaking and the tall trees were also shaken, swaying back and forth, falling down in all directions.
"Bai Gu Mo Long!" Zhuo Yifan was shocked, staring at the screen with a dead gaze. The female cultivator was sprinting forward while behind her, a massive body was chasing after her relentlessly, baring its teeth and claws, letting out earth-shaking roars, its enormous bone tail sweeping across, countless trees and giant rocks were reduced to powder, dancing in the air.
"This nun has encountered the White Bone Demon Dragon? How unfortunate..."
Zhuo Yifan shook his head, somewhat unable to bear watching further, knowing that the female cultivator's life was hanging by a thread. However, he did not know that the White Bone Demon Dragon and the unlucky female cultivator were not the key to the Lingying Pearl.
The image hasn't ended yet, he gazes intently at the screen.
Whoosh!
A blood-red figure suddenly darted out of the swirling sand and dust-filled sky.
Hong Ying was a man, his entire body wrapped in a crimson cloak that left no opening for the wind to pass through. His face was also covered by a mask, and his breath was strong and astonishing. In both hands, he tightly grasped daggers, faintly emitting a bloody glow - they were actually two spiritual weapons!
"Ah!"
The man suddenly accelerated crazily, flashing behind the female cultivator at high speed. The female cultivator didn't even have time to react before her head was cut off by the intersecting daggers. Along with the tyrannical spiritual power and the explosively spraying blood, it shot towards the sky.
"Rumble!"
At this time, the white bone demon dragon behind took a step forward and directly trampled the headless corpse of the female cultivator into a pulp.
Red Shadow
Basic Strength: 50
Basic Defense: 50
Basic speed: 100
At that moment, Mo Yan's "soul inspection" presented the terrible red shadow in the form of data in his mind.
"This red shadow is definitely not a real cultivator, who is he?!" Zhuo Yifan was shocked, his face turned as white as Leishi's.
