Chapter 397 What game is this?! It's disturbing my cultivation!
As for why Ai trusts Pu Siqinglan so much, it's naturally because... Pu Siqinglan's life is still in Ai's hands.
Don't misunderstand, it's not poisoning, but a side effect of the Seventh Sense. Ai doesn't believe that Pu Siqinglan can find anyone else to solve this problem! Pu Siqinglan even has doubts about whether Li Muyang can treat the side effects.
Moreover, Ai also helped Pu Si Qinglan cure her family's hereditary disease. The reason she became a mercenary and risked her life every day was because the hereditary disease was incurable. Pu Si Qinglan could only live to the age of thirty. In order to survive, she had no choice but to go crazy and search for a solution.
According to the notes passed down from their ancestors, there is a treasure that can help alleviate the onset of hereditary diseases. This so-called treasure is the stone mask that Ai took out.
In other words, Pu Siqinglan's ancestral method of saving her life is actually to awaken her seventh sense, reverse aging, and prevent her body from reaching the age of thirty. But... Pu Siqinglan always felt as if she had just escaped one tiger's den only to fall into another.
Most importantly, Ai Haibara cured her genetic disease! And yet, just because she touched the stone mask, Urahara Seiran awakened her seventh sense! How could she not go crazy? If awakening the seventh sense and starting to reverse aging is to prevent the genetic disease from recurring at age thirty, then since the genetic disease has already been cured, isn't awakening the seventh sense and reversing aging pointless?
Fortunately, Ai said that Li Muyang might have a solution, and Pu Siqinglan breathed a sigh of relief. Otherwise, she didn't want to die!
Getting back to the main point, treatment!
Without a word, Li Muyang pulled out a scalpel from somewhere. Before Pu Siqinglan could realize what was happening, she felt a flash of cold light, and several metal fragments, barely visible to the naked eye, appeared in Li Muyang's palm.
Pu Siqinglan⊙w⊙: Huh?
What just happened?!
Li Muyang calmly picked up an alcohol wipe from the side and wiped the blood-free scalpel, explaining leisurely, "I was afraid the movements would frighten you, so I sped up the time flow. If you want a more detailed experience, I can accommodate you."
Pu Siqing blinked. Although her subconscious told her it was best not to try, curiosity compelled her to say, "How about... we take a look?"
Li Muyang's gaze shifted to Pu Siqinglan's face: "Are you sure? Then be prepared."
Pu Siqinglan had just nodded when she felt a flash of cold light before her eyes. Then, to her bewilderment, the spot where Li Muyang had pointed earlier opened up like a flower.
At first, she was indeed startled, but then Pu Siqinglan realized that her body could not feel any pain at all.
Seeing that Pu Siqinglan didn't scream or shout, Li Muyang was satisfied with her composure. He waved his hand to restore her injuries to normal and explained, "Do you read comics?"
Upon hearing this, Pu Siqinglan had a sudden inspiration: "Could it be... One Piece? The Op-Op Fruit?"
Li Muyang smiled and said, "Not bad! You're quick to adapt! Similar! But my abilities are far superior to what's depicted in comics!"
"As for the side effects of your seventh sense ability, they are not really a problem. The so-called reverse aging is simply that the body cannot handle the power that is integrated into the body when the elemental stone awakens its power. That power will make people young again, but if you can't control it, it will be reverse aging. As long as you can control this power, the seventh sense will not have any side effects."
“I have a cultivation method here. I will guide you to start cultivating, and the side effects will naturally disappear. Of course, if you want to save yourself the trouble now and get it over with, I can also help you eliminate the side effects, but the price is that the upper limit of your seventh sense ability will be locked.”
As expected, Pu Siqinglan immediately made her choice: "Then I'll trouble you! I choose the former!"
Nonsense! If there's no danger to her life, then of course she'd choose power! The reason Pu Siqinglan has been aging so rapidly lately is because once she awakens her power, how could she possibly resist using it?
Having lived a life of constant danger in the past, Pu Siqinglan has developed the most devout faith in power. This is also why she is willing to work for Ai. It is because Ai, who looks like a child and seems harmless, possesses power that even Pu Siqinglan cannot overcome.
As we all know, as mentioned before, Ai Haibara's abilities can be described as a mini-version of the First Hokage!
It was only after being humiliated by Ai Haibara, coupled with the kindness of curing her genetic disease, that Pu Siqinglan obediently submitted. Otherwise, if she were truly a ruthless professional mercenary, what compassion could she possibly show? A carrot and stick approach is the right way!
Therefore, Pu Siqinglan coveted Li Muyang's miraculous power even more! Now that she no longer had to worry about her life being in danger, power naturally became her top priority!
Nothing can be relied upon, except power! Only by mastering power can you seize the initiative!
She didn't have any intention of repaying kindness with enmity, because Pu Siqinglan didn't have such a reason at the moment. However, she still hoped to have some initiative so that she wouldn't be completely passive. At least she wanted to be able to resist Ai when she attacked her.
Otherwise, all those decades of living on the edge would have been wasted!
And then, as expected...
Pu Siqinglan was very serious, like a diligent primary school student, and had the mental energy to observe and learn. Li Muyang handed her the contents of the jade disc. After a long time, she opened her eyes with an unusually strange expression.
"...Anime is really scary." Pu Siqinglan said inexplicably.
Li Muyang's lips twitched: "What did you do, you anime fanboy!"
"No, no, no." Pu Siqinglan hurriedly waved her hand and explained very seriously and sincerely, "I didn't mean to insult you at all. I just admire how amazing you are. These cultivation techniques... May I ask, you didn't just figure them out yourself after watching anime, did you? That's incredible!"
"What you gave me... isn't that just Stand users and Ripple?" Pu Si Qinglan's expression at this moment was almost exactly the same as that of a Shinigami elementary school student solving a case, a confident and wicked smile, just short of adjusting his glasses, the cunning frog kept touching your belly!
Li Muyang blinked, pondered for a moment, and said slowly, "Do you think it's possible that, if we consider the order of events, this cultivation method might have come first?"
No joke. Both "Stand User" and "Ripple Qi Gong" are cultivation methods from the Shennong Beast, inherited from the Shennong Beasts of past generations. They belong to the development and cultivation of life force. The source of this cultivation method can even be traced back to the first generation of Shennong Beast, the Jade Kirin Ancestor who perished in the Dragon-Han Calamity.
By any measure, the cultivation manuals are from earlier times.
Pu Siqinglan's eyes widened in surprise, and she hissed...
Think carefully!
Li Muyang shrugged: "I think that instead of getting hung up on the order of the two, it's better to say that the greatest truths are the simplest, and all methods lead to the same goal. No matter how they change, their essence is the same. So there's no need to be surprised if they look similar. Their root causes are just minor issues! Practicality is the key!"
Pu Siqinglan was confused by what he said, but she could still understand the general meaning. He was saying that the cultivation manual in his hand was similar to the setting of the anime. It was just that they both focused on the development and research of life, so they looked very similar.
"Let's see what it's really like." For Pu Siqinglan, she doesn't necessarily need to know whether it's the anime's setting or not; she's just more concerned about how it will turn out!
With Li Muyang's help, Pu Siqinglan quickly awakened her Stand user, mastered Ripple Qi Gong, and touched the Qi sensation.
Meanwhile, with nothing else to do, Xiao Ai and Xia He also joined in the cultivation. It wasn't their first time encountering each other, but they took this opportunity to ask Li Muyang for answers to some questions they had about cultivation.
The main reason is that Ai is worried that she won't be able to defeat Pu Siqinglan in a few days because of her rapid progress.
You can play games anytime, but the opportunity to have Li Muyang assist you in cultivation is not always available!
For some reason, Xiao Ai and Xia He both felt that their cultivation efficiency seemed to increase significantly when Li Muyang was around. They couldn't tell if it was just their imagination, but the increased cultivation efficiency did make them feel the joy of cultivation, and they became somewhat addicted to it for a while.
What game is this?! It's disturbing my cultivation!
That's normal. After Li Muyang's talent for cultivation was completely transformed, he became addicted to cultivation. Later, as his cultivation level increased, he gradually calmed down and stopped being in a hurry to cultivate.
It is said that on the path of cultivation, one either progresses or regresses. However, being too hasty and abandoning everything for the sake of cultivation seems to put the cart before the horse. After all, the root of cultivation is to achieve longevity, but isn't the reason for achieving longevity ultimately to enjoy life?
Getting back to the main point, Pu Siqinglan's rapid progress in cultivation is still related to her seventh sense, which allows her to control her body with high efficiency. However, she is still far from complete control, as it is impossible to achieve the final effect as soon as she awakens.
The human body is an extremely complex structure, which even the most powerful intelligent computer cannot compare to. It is impossible to easily develop it to its full potential. If someone were to achieve such a breakthrough, the price would inevitably be the loss of self!
Pu Siqinglan's seventh sense, physical manipulation, is simply far superior to that of ordinary people.
At least, Pu Siqinglan's ability to mobilize muscles and develop brain areas has greatly improved.
In this way, it can be said that she has developed in all aspects of moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and labor education, and Pu Siqinglan has suddenly become a "genius".
“I suggest you don’t rush things and try to develop more control over your body. Otherwise, you’ll likely lose yourself. After all, if you really control your body very efficiently, dopamine, which produces pleasure, will also be generated on its own. If this goes on for a while, your mind won’t be able to keep up, and you might give up on yourself and even suffer brain death,” Li Muyang emphasized.
Because he noticed that Pu Siqinglan was controlling the secretion of certain hormones in her body.
Li Muyang could do the same thing himself, but he would never do it because he was afraid of losing himself, and addiction is the hardest thing to correct.
Pu Siqinglan trembled and nodded obediently, no longer daring to continue courting death.
