Star Luo Empire, Zhu Family Mansion.
In Zhu Zhuqing's room.
She had opened her eyes at some point, but stared blankly ahead, seemingly maintaining this posture for a long time, with traces of tears still clinging to her cheeks.
After a long while, she seemed to awaken from a deep dream, her expression still slightly dazed.
Feeling the coolness on her face, she reached out and gently touched it, immediately feeling the dampness on her fingertips, and was startled again.
She couldn't remember how many years it had been since she had cried.
It seemed that since she could remember, she had never shed a tear.
She didn't cry when she learned of the bloody tradition of her family's marriage to the royal family, she didn't cry when she learned that she had been chosen as another heir with a dark future, she didn't cry when she learned that Dai Mubai had fled the capital...
Even when her once doting older sister became cold and ruthless overnight after she awakened her martial soul at the age of six, she had never shown the slightest weakness.
But the dream she had just had was too real.
It was so real that she couldn't even distinguish between the dream and reality.
Those experiences, those memories, had already settled deep within her mind.
Zhu Zhuqing's expression gradually deepened.
For a moment, she even resembled the Zhu Zhuqing who had cultivated to the peak Douluo realm, possessed the Netherworld White Tiger Martial Soul, wielded great power, and was about to ascend to the throne of the Star Luo Emperor.
"This dream..."
Her eyes narrowed. Actually, there was a very simple way to determine if it was just an ordinary dream.
The cultivation technique!
The miraculous cultivation technique that Su Cheng, disguised as her father, had taught her in the dream!
Zhu Zhuqing calmed her mind and silently controlled the flow of her soul power through her meridians.
In fact, her actions at this moment were extremely dangerous.
She did remember the method of operating the Nirvana Scripture, but she was no longer the peak Douluo she once was.
Although her understanding remained, most of the corresponding techniques required her to reach a corresponding level before she could use them.
In other words, those insights could help Zhu Zhuqing adapt to the power within her body as quickly as possible and unleash strength far exceeding that of ordinary people, even without encountering any bottlenecks during breakthroughs.
However, they certainly wouldn't allow her to instantly ascend to the level of a peak Douluo, directly possessing their insight and methods.
Without power, mere talk of insights is nothing but castles in the air.
At her current level, she clearly couldn't perceive whether this cultivation method contained any flaws.
After all, she didn't possess the solid theoretical foundation of Su Cheng.
But at this moment, Zhu Zhuqing completely ignored the risks.
Her soul power circulated, condensed, and flowed through her meridians, continuously strengthening, and her bloodline underwent subtle transformations.
After completing one cycle, Zhu Zhuqing's aura calmed.
She opened her eyes, silently got off the bed, and went to the main hall.
She picked up paper and pen and began to write, word by word.
Before long, an entire page of white paper was filled with words.
The manuscript contained the methods for bloodline acquisition and the preparation of slow-acting potions that Su Cheng had previously taught her.
She neither knew how to make nor dared to make the single-use bloodline potion.
Dai Mubai was, after all, the rightful heir of the Dai family; if she openly seized his bloodline, the consequences would be unpredictable.
However, this slow-acting potion had been recorded on the manuscript along with the bloodline acquisition method, but she hadn't considered using it on Su Cheng before.
Indeed, in just that brief moment, Zhu Zhuqing had made her decision.
Her eyes turned towards the Heavenly Dou Empire, her gaze calm and unwavering.
"Since you dare not face the future, then let me face it for you. As for the Dai family's White Tiger Martial Soul, it's a waste on you. This is a fair trade—using your cultivation potential to exchange for a way to live. At least this way, you can survive, right?" Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her
gaze and carefully placed the manuscript close to her body.
She recorded it now only to prevent forgetting it.
When she finished preparing the potion and went to find Dai Mubai, she would naturally destroy it.
"Next, I should talk to my eldest sister first,"
Zhu Zhuqing sighed inwardly.
Everything in the dream was actually no different from reality, except for one thing.
And that difference was the root cause of all the changes.
Su Cheng.
In her original memories, there was no classmate named Su Cheng, and the Su family had no such person at all.
But she subconsciously believed that this person must exist somewhere in this world.
And that Qian Renxue...
Thinking of this, her eyes flickered, and her expression darkened.
"The Spirit Hall..."
The real dream that had lasted for more than twenty years had a tremendous impact on Zhu Zhuqing.
Although it didn't completely change her like Qian Renxue did because of the appearance of her second personality, the
subtle influence was extremely large.
And as time went on, the influence from those long-standing memories would continue to deepen.
In Su Cheng's room at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
As Su Cheng slowly opened his eyes, the memories from the simulated world quickly merged into his mind.
Unlike last time, this time, due to the free exploration mode, the memories gained were even richer and more complete.
However, for him, there weren't many extra feelings.
His true nature hadn't changed, and coupled with the brain's self-protection mechanism, apart from those extremely profound memories, a large amount of irrelevant information settled deep in his mind, without having much impact on him.
[Main Quest Reward Settlement (Settlement Bonus: 87%; Free Exploration Mode Additional 25%): External Soul Bone (True Sight Eye), additional Origin Power.]
As the notification appeared, a twisted dark golden vertical line appeared out of thin air on Su Cheng's forehead.
At the same time, he felt his spiritual power rapidly draining away at an alarming rate.
To be precise, it was being instantly absorbed into the external soul bone on his forehead.
If someone were looking from the side at this moment, they would clearly see that Su Cheng's head was shrouded in a faint dark golden light, with golden light constantly gathering towards the vertical line on his forehead and his eyes like threads.
In just a few breaths, his spiritual power was completely exhausted.
A sharp headache and a feeling of emptiness spread throughout his body, even causing his vision to blur.
But then, a warm current, like a gentle stream, flowed from the external soul bone on his forehead and flowed back into his sea of consciousness.
This returned spiritual energy became extremely concentrated and resilient.
The entire process was smooth and effortless, causing him no discomfort whatsoever.
At the same time, he used his sword intent to introspect, and it seemed that a point of light was suspended above his sea of consciousness, but he could not touch it and could only observe it from afar.
Su Cheng slowly opened his eyes, and a bright white light flashed.
At that moment, the entire room seemed to light up for a moment.
In his senses, it was as if an organ had appeared out of nowhere on his forehead, which made him slightly uncomfortable, but he believed that he would get used to it after a while.
However, the appearance of this external soul bone, which helped him further concentrate and enhance his spiritual energy, was only a side effect.
Su Cheng could clearly feel that his intuition at short to medium distances had been enhanced to an unbelievable level.
He looked around and silently comprehended.
"It should be the effect of 'Seeing Through.' Its specific strength will only be known through future battles. Besides that…"
The Longevity Sword appeared in his hand.
Su Cheng activated his True Sight Eye.
As his spiritual power surged in, a faint glimmer of light began to emanate from the vertical lines on his forehead.
Su Cheng shifted his gaze to the Longevity Sword in his hand.
However, his focus wasn't on the sword itself, but rather on the three spirit rings attached to it.
His vision completely changed.
The scene before his eyes was no longer concrete objects, but rather wisps of different energies and information fluctuations, radiating multicolored light and some inexplicable patterns.
His first spirit ring came from a nine-hundred-year-old Genshan Earth Dragon, a spirit beast possessing the ultimate earth attribute.
As his gaze focused further, the once vibrant world suddenly turned black and white.
Only the first spirit ring, which he was now focusing on, shone with an earthy yellow luster.
This wasn't the color of a hundred-year-old spirit ring, but the light of the ultimate earth attribute.
Enveloped in yellow light was a slender, indistinct phantom.
As he continuously channeled his spiritual energy, the phantom gradually distorted and began to transform into another form.
At this moment, Su Cheng suddenly felt a wave of dizziness.
The slightly open dark golden vertical lines on his forehead suddenly closed and then dimmed.
Only then did he realize with a start.
In just that brief moment, his spiritual energy had been completely exhausted!
It should be noted that although Su Cheng's combat strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Soul Venerable, this was by no means his strongest point.
With the nourishment of the medicine and the tempering of the Sentimental Sword Intent, his spiritual energy was far higher than his actual cultivation level, and even compared to a Soul King, it was not much weaker.
However, even so, it was still far from enough to support the consumption of the True Sight Eye.
Not only that.
As he further sensed his own condition, he suddenly realized that the simulator, which had only exhausted its energy after the last simulation but remained in perfect condition, was now almost completely silent, with only a very faint sense remaining.
Although somewhat surprised, Su Cheng remained calm, his brow furrowed in thought.
"What does 'Original Power' mean?"
The reward for completing this mission seemed to far exceed his expectations.
This wasn't just based on his intuition; the simulator's current state indicated that this "True Sight Eye" was something beyond his capabilities.
However, he couldn't fully grasp its power at his current level.
The simulator's silence wasn't a major problem.
He needed to focus on digesting his gains anyway.
Research on his martial soul and improvements to the Nirvana Sutra required considerable time.
Especially since he would later need the Nirvana Sutra to fuse his two martial souls, he didn't plan to start another simulation in the short term.
However, possessing the True Sight Eye had given him some new ideas.
While its use was costly, the unique vision was indeed helpful, even allowing him to study the essence of spirit rings.
Therefore, his original plans needed some adjustments.
Tonight I'll tidy up the main storyline a bit. There will be a lot of characters appearing—Shrek Academy, Spirit Hall Academy, Heaven Dou Academy, and the Four Elements Academy—and the conflicts are quite significant, so I need to refine it further. The next chapter will probably be tomorrow afternoon.
