#393 - Daughter of the Starry Night
"Wasn't the planetary barrier already opened? Where did these three spiritual cultivators come from?"
Wang Jixuan couldn't help but suspect that He Ruli was deceiving them.
"This…"
Mudan was also uncertain, her small face showing a thoughtful expression as she muttered:
"The right to interpret this matter still belongs to others. We little scrub civilizations… close our eyes and kick our legs."
Wang Jixuan gently patted the back of his neck, pondering carefully.
Before he could wildly speculate, several beams of light flickered back and forth, and He Ruli's projection appeared.
She bowed slightly to Wang Jixuan as a sign of respect and said directly:
"The planetary barrier has indeed been opened, I swear on the glory of the civilization."
Wang Jixuan chuckled awkwardly.
A civilization that only had ruins and legacies left.
"Come and chat."
Wang Jixuan's smile hid a hint of coldness:
"Why didn't you fire the cannons back then?
"When I was suppressing them, as long as the cannons on the city wall fired a volley, they would inevitably have to leave behind one or two.
"What, is the guardian still dreaming of hedging their bets?"
He Ruli didn't avoid the topic: "Our positions are slightly different, Great Pioneer."
"Different?"
"Yes," He Ruli said, "My goal is to revive the civilization, your goal is to ascend yourself, and for the surface human civilization to survive and thrive. The misalignment of goals means that we can only maintain a consistent benefit on some issues."
Wang Jixuan quite liked her directness.
Daoist Master nodded and smiled: "Entrusting half of the hope of civilization's revival to these spiritual cultivators, is that revived civilization still Ina?
"It's not about hoping that they will inherit the spirit of the Ina civilization."
He Ruli sighed, and the projection walked to the soft cushion in front of Wang Jixuan and knelt down.
The soft cushion showed a slight sense of depression.
As if the projection had weight.
She said softly: "I just want to create a relatively stable growth environment for the continuation of your and Gao Huating's genes, and so far, you have not provided reproductive cells."
Wang Jixuan pointed to his forehead: "My state of mind has not recovered yet, which will affect the quality of the cells."
"Oh," He Ruli didn't know how to retort for a moment.
She frowned and pursed her lips, staring at Wang Jixuan's calm and indifferent face, as if she had suffered a great grievance.
Mudan asked softly from the side: "Regarding the revival of your civilization, would you consider mechanical bodies?"
"No."
"Okay," Mudan muttered softly, "But we mechanical bodies also know what it means to be loyal and righteous. I exchange my sincerity for your sincerity, but alas, the bright moon shines on the ditch."
Wang Jixuan: …
She even recited poetry!
He Ruli sighed: "Great Pioneer, how should you deal with their upcoming difficulties?"
"Improve my strength as much as possible, what else can I do?"
Wang Jixuan said with a smile:
"Then how about we make a more realistic exchange?
"I will call Gao Huating over later. When I dual cultivate with Amina, I will also let Gao Huating start cultivating. I will treat Little Huating with the attitude of a personally passed down disciple. You must also know the friendship between me and her.
"And in exchange, you find a way to protect the surface civilization.
"Under the influence of my current Dao heart, although I don't really care about the life and death of most people, I care about my friends and the cause they have been fighting for.
"Can you do it?"
He Ruli thought seriously.
Mudan's small face was full of shock.
What did she hear?
The commander is going to dual cultivate with Amina!
That's fine, they are two extraordinary creatures, not bound by human social ethics, which is normal. Moreover, Amina obviously has been interested in the commander for a long time, and must be waiting for Commander Lingtong to die of old age before taking over.
The point is, the commander and Amina are dual cultivating, and Gao Huating is watching from the side!
What new kind of gameplay is this!
This, is it so exciting?
What did the commander learn in that Stone of the Past… The commander's second life is called Three Realms Wanderer, it really is… not just a name.
Wang Jixuan glanced at Little Mudan, who couldn't control her expression, and glared at her fiercely.
Although he didn't know where Mudan was thinking, he knew from her expression that it was definitely nothing good.
He Ruli said slowly: "I can send four technical puppet consultants, this is the limit of what I can do. Leaving Cloud City, the combat power here will lose the authority to act, unless you or Little Huating take over the city again and unlock all permissions… I was a rebel back then, and the permissions I obtained were not comprehensive."
"Okay," Wang Jixuan nodded, "I was going to teach Little Huating to start cultivating anyway, and just gave you a condition by the way. Let Little Huating go to Amina, and come to me when you're ready."
"According to your will."
He Ruli honestly bowed to express her respect, and her figure disappeared in a flash.
Mudan muttered softly: "Commander, since I came here, I have been speaking cautiously, and you still directly provoke her."
"She's spoiled," Wang Jixuan said with a cold face, "I've already endured a lot by not tearing my face apart! She dares to clamor in front of me with this kind of hedging bets and two-faced behavior. If it weren't for me! Forget it, heroes don't mention their past bravery. Go get me some supplies, I'll have a big meal to enjoy myself."
Mudan blinked: "Are you really going to dual cultivate with Amina under Little Huating's witness?"
"Can't I?"
"Yes, it's too much."
Mudan gave a thumbs up:
"Do you want a bed-warming maid? The kind that can push your butt."
"Get out of here."
Daoist Wang couldn't hold back anymore.
Mudan smiled playfully, turned and left, already knowing roughly that Wang Jixuan's dual cultivation this time should not be the same as with Lingtong.
Then she was relieved.
Otherwise, knowing that the commander would be unfaithful, she would have to add more sexy elements to her maid outfit.
…
Wang Jixuan, Gao Huating, and Amina soon began their closed-door cultivation in the same room.
Wang Jixuan didn't rush into serious dual cultivation, but first studied with Amina how to help Gao Huating cultivate quickly.
Under the intentional protection of the ancient remnant spirit He Ruli, Gao Huating is now a piece of uncut jade for cultivation.
There are no spiritual energy circuits or core circuits in her body, which will not interfere with the cultivation state;
Her body has been nourished by spiritual energy for a long time, and the first two steps of cultivation will come naturally;
Even Gao Huating's own characteristic is that chanting can calm people's minds. This magical ability can also be developed into her own supernatural power after her cultivation is profound.
Innate supernatural powers, born with the soul, this is an ability that Wang Jixuan envies.
Gao Huating herself is already very calm.
She has gone through great storms, and Wang Jixuan's teaching her to cultivate can no longer excite her, but instead makes her a little lost.
After all, they will be called master and apprentice later.
Daoist Wang first instructed Gao Huating on how to meditate, teaching her the concepts of acupoints, meridians, dantian, and qi sea from the most basic level, and guided Gao Huating step by step to carry out a systematic cultivation path.
Wang Jixuan cannot blindly pass on the "Qingping Art".
This is the last bit of respect that Daoist Master has for his sect.
Wang Jixuan found a Five Elements Wood attribute cultivation technique in his own collection of classics, which was in line with Gao Huating's own aptitude.
This cultivation technique is called "Eternal Evergreen", and it was once the direct lineage technique of the head of a first-class immortal sect.
Later, that immortal sect was destroyed, and the cultivation technique somehow spread to the hands of Wangxiang Valley. Because it had mutual corroboration with Qingping Art, it was listed as one of the classics that could only be comprehended by 'core disciples in the late Golden Core Realm'.
Gao Huating's cultivation talent is naturally not low.
In just over an hour, she had entered the state of enlightenment, and could hear the sound of wind passing through the forest by her ears.
The spiritual energy in the air seemed to have spirituality, joyfully and happily rushing towards Gao Huating.
This was Gao Huating's first cultivation with a proper cultivation technique, but a little bit of light appeared around her body.
Wang Jixuan keenly noticed that the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire hall area was slowly increasing.
Behind this must be He Ruli's help.
The corner of Daoist Master's mouth twitched slightly.
What a great pioneer… In the final analysis, he is still an outsider.
But Daoist Master also left a hand.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ is ⊥ at ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
Eternal Evergreen was once the core technique of an immortal sect, so it must have a characteristic—inner and outer chapters, upper and lower parts.
The disciples of an immortal sect often have a hierarchy. Different levels of disciples correspond to different cultivation techniques, progressing layer by layer.
The cultivation technique that Wang Jixuan took out was the first three levels of this technique, which could allow Little Huating to cultivate to the Golden Core Realm.
This is not to guard against Little Huating;
He is only guarding against He Ruli, the former opposition party and rebel.
When Gao Huating was deeply in meditation, Wang Jixuan called Amina to prepare.
Amina did change into a beautiful fishtail skirt obediently. Her graceful figure always made Daoist Master a little distracted. The simple makeup on her beautiful face, and the eyes that seemed to contain the entire night, exuded a magical charm that was enough to settle the years.
She is like a goddess born in the night sky.
Daoist Wang quickly became honest and suggested: "Why don't you turn into a smaller size? That way… um, it will be more relaxing when cultivating."
"Um?" Amina had a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth and deliberately said, "I am not bound by human ethics and morality."
"I just don't want to let Lingtong down, in a few hundred years, in a few hundred years."
"Is that the pie you're drawing?"
"Let's talk about it in a few hundred years," Daoist Wang corrected his statement.
Amina chuckled and said softly, "Alright, I'm just teasing you. I'll just remove the psionic circuit that enhances my charm."
As she spoke, her charm index decreased by a tiny bit.
Daoist Wang wasn't too distracted.
Mainly because he really couldn't outlive these psionic cultivators.
This stuff, if you can't sever ties with the mortal world when ascending, there's a small chance it will have some impact.
Ascension…
The moment Wang Jixuan thought of these two words, he suddenly felt a bit颓废, a sense of disillusionment like 'all empty dreams'.
Amina seemed to notice his sudden drop in mood and asked softly, "What's wrong? Do you need me to keep the relevant psionic circuits activated?"
"No need, I'm just a little depressed. The hope of ascension is渺茫, and I don't know what I'm persisting in, but in any case, I'll either die in the Heavenly Tribulation or ascend to the Immortal Realm. There is no third choice."
Wang Jixuan sighed softly and began to enter today's topic.
"I'm here to guide you in psionic circulation. I've experienced in the Stone of the Past how to help the Inna people with this. I reckon you're about the same as the Inna people."
Amina nodded gently.
She suddenly said, "If things are impossible… take away 80% of my power."
Wang Jixuan was stunned.
Amina closed her eyes and sighed, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
"My father is Obsidian. Although I don't want to admit this, his arrangement for us gene successors to become different peripheral power psionic cultivators must be with a purpose."
"Rather than me becoming a part of his plan, it's better to fulfill you, allowing you to solve these problems and protect the civilizations that can still be protected."
"My lost power can be recovered, but it might take thousands of years. I've carefully verified it."
Wang Jixuan's eyes flickered slightly.
The desire in his heart disappeared instead.
"Amina?" Wang Jixuan called out.
"Hmm?" Amina opened her eyes.
Daoist Wang smiled and said:
"If I take your power, I will completely lose the chance to enter the Immortal Realm. Any shortcut comes at a price."
"But later, when my strength surpasses yours, I can help you break through your limits."
"Alright, don't overthink it. I need your power to make a reconciliation, which will also benefit you. I'll heal you first."
"If I really get killed later, I won't be pedantic. I can take your power in half a day."
"Okay, good."
Amina nodded gently. At this moment, she was being obedient.
A speck of light bloomed from Wang Jixuan's fingertip.
He hadn't actually told Amina before.
He is now a Nascent Soul cultivator with a nascent soul. He can heal most of the injuries in Amina's body in a short time and help Amina refine her soul to improve some of her strength.
He is willing to trust Amina. They are old comrades-in-arms.
As for Nielda Tamon;
Wang Jixuan didn't plan to interfere with his injuries.
The hundreds of billions of dead souls on Earth, those who were persecuted by the Psionic Capital, would not allow him to heal Nielda Tamon either.
'I can find a few psionic cultivators to be my lackeys later.'
Daoist Wang thought wildly.
Because Xiao Huating couldn't abstain from grains, Peony would enter this place regularly to deliver meals.
In a flash, three days passed. A strong light suddenly flashed in the main hall, and thousands of stars twinkled in a partial area above Cloud City.
This seemed to announce the return of a powerful psionic cultivator.
Nielda Tamon looked up at the anomaly in the sky, his expression uncertain.
He knew about Wang Jixuan and Amina's 'dual cultivation', and he roughly knew the content of the dual cultivation. Now, Amina's core circuit had been fully activated again, and Amina's own aura fluctuations had recovered to 80% of her peak.
This also made Nielda Tamon hesitate.
Of course, he didn't want to ask Wang Jixuan to dual cultivate with him once. In his opinion, that was too absurd. Bottom line, principles, pride, and personality would not allow this strong man to do so.
What Nielda Tamon was thinking about was other female psionic cultivators who were injured and unable to recover their strength in a short time.
However, Nielda Tamon quickly dismissed these extra thoughts.
The current Earth has been wrapped in a barrier. They are not Obsidian's group, and they don't have the means to come to Earth.
"Sigh."
The strong man sighed and continued to look down at the… gossip magazine in his hand.
He liked these Inna people's celebrity news.
The half-month deadline set by Wang Jixuan was rapidly approaching.
It's just that this small group of elite human forces in Cloud City is currently uncertain; whether disaster or emergence will arrive first.
