Chapter 303 The Clingy Junior Sister, the Impact of Chu Yang's Descending the Mountain
"If it's targeting monsters, we can have fewer concerns and thus maximize the monsters' strength."
Magic Chu Yang pondered and said, "With the gene pool we have now, plus the bloodline factors from various worlds, we can soon create an ultimate beast body gene."
Dou Qi Chu Yang nodded and said, "My idea is the same as yours, but I can further enhance it..."
As he spoke, he took out two jade bottles with his bare hands and gently tossed them over.
Magic Chu Yang reached out and took it, smiling knowingly.
He already knew when he completed the sharing that when Dou Qi Chu Yang displayed his power at Yunlan Mountain, he secretly collected some of the blood of Queen Medusa and Zi Yan.
These two types of blood contain the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon Royal Family of the Primordial Void and the bloodline of the Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, respectively.
Cai Lin's Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python bloodline is derived from the Nine-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python, and its potential should not be underestimated. Its lineage as a member of the Ancient Void Dragon Royal Family is self-evident.
Once the bloodline factors are extracted, they can be materialized into genetic data and integrated into the ultimate genes of the beast body through the perfected gene conversion technology of the Soul Palace.
After discussing this matter, Dou Qi Chu Yang added, "If we can obtain the complete ascension system technology from the Super God World, I do have a way to maximize its benefits..."
Da Ming Chu Yang's eyes lit up and he said, "You want to gather the power of faith through the countless lower planes of the Great Thousand Worlds?"
Dou Qi Chu Yang nodded and said, "That's right. We can gather the faith power of the entire Great Thousand World by dealing with the extraterrestrial evil race and even leaving our name on the Sky Ranking!"
"But before that, you need to lay a solid foundation."
Pirate Chu Yang laughed and said, "This is a big deal!"
"Don't worry! We each enjoy high prestige in our respective worlds, so gathering a certain amount of faith power is not difficult!"
In fact, even before connecting to the world of Dou Qi, they planned to maximize the gathering of faith power by leveraging each person's prestige in their respective world.
Even if the god-like Chu Yang fails to find the place of ascension and understand the underlying principles, there are other ways to solve the problem of gathering the power of faith.
In the world of immortals and heroes, there once existed an evil sword immortal who grew stronger by consuming negative emotions. Mount Shu also possesses a spell that gathers the power of all living beings to suppress evil spirits.
With some improvements made to this foundation, it is possible to achieve the effect of gathering the power of faith.
Without saying another word, Chu Yang left the Soul Palace.
…………
Jia Ma Empire, Yunlan Sect.
During the months that Chu Yang was in seclusion, the Yunlan Sect underwent a period of reconstruction.
In Xiao Yan's revenge, the Yunlan Sect was left in ruins. Yun Yun simply took the opportunity to demolish all the old buildings and rebuild them.
This also means that the Yunlan Sect will completely bid farewell to the past and usher in a brand new era.
It is worth mentioning that almost all the elders of the Yunlan Sect have died, resulting in a gap in the overall strength. Only Nalan Yanran remains as a Dou Wang level expert.
There were only three to five people at the Dou Ling realm; the rest were all Great Dou Shi, as well as ordinary disciples with the cultivation levels of Dou Shi and Dou Zhe.
In addition, the reconstruction consumed a lot of resources, causing Yunyun to be constantly worried.
The scarcity of resources, coupled with the difficulty in replenishing the sect with fresh blood, has led to a decline in Yunlan Sect's fortunes.
However, she did not regret the decision she made, because if Yunlan Sect had not done that, no matter how extraordinary its status was, it would have become a black sheep in the eyes of everyone in the empire.
In the past three years, Yunshan has gone too far, offending almost everyone in the Jia Ma Empire. The lower-level cultivators are full of complaints, and the major forces are united in their hatred.
Without sufficient cultivation resources and without any guidance, the disciples of Yunlan Sect became lax and undisciplined.
After all, as the sect leader, Yun Yun didn't have that much time to guide each disciple.
Although Nalan Yanran has a high cultivation level, it was honed through the trials of the Gate of Life and Death. In terms of cultivation experience and teaching techniques and combat skills, she is truly inferior to the elders of the past.
Having strong personal abilities and being able to teach others are two completely different things.
Beside a pool on the back mountain, Nalan Yanran sat with her trousers rolled up to her knees, her feet soaking in the water, and one hand supporting her chin, lost in thought.
Even in a dazed, absent-minded state, Nalan Yanran still had a furrowed brow, a worried expression, and a somewhat haggard face.
"Oh, what's causing our young sect leader so much anxiety?"
A soft laugh rang in her ears, and Nalan Yanran instantly snapped back to reality, only to find that someone had appeared beside her at some point.
Chu Yang plopped down next to Nalan Yanran, then lay back on the grass, looking up at the azure sky, and asked, "Is it because of the Nalan family's affairs? Or because of the Yunlan Sect's situation?"
Nalan Yanran stared blankly at Chu Yang for a long time before she reacted, gritting her teeth and saying, "You still know how to come back?"
Chu Yang was completely bewildered. What was going on with that tone that sounded like a woman resentful in her boudoir?
Why do I suddenly feel like a scumbag and a heartless man when I'm perfectly fine?
"I went into seclusion, not left the sect, so why can't I come back?" Chu Yang said with a dark face, somewhat speechless.
Nalan Yanran snorted and said, "The rule set by our teacher is that once you leave the mountain, it means you've left the sect!"
"Those rules don't apply to me!" Chu Yang waved his hand.
Confirming that he had no intention of leaving the Yunlan Sect, Nalan Yanran's eyebrows curved slightly, but she still said softly:
"I thought that with your rapid increase in strength, you had forgotten our past friendship and looked down on our little Yunlan Sect, so you were planning to just pack up and leave!"
Chu Yang curled his lip and said, "You're so heartless. If I didn't care about our past relationship, why would I have bothered with other people's business that day?"
Nalan Yanran pursed her lips, her tightly furrowed brows having relaxed at some point, and tentatively asked with some hesitation:
"Then... can I still call you junior brother?"
"Why do you ask that?" Chu Yang raised an eyebrow.
Nalan Yanran took a deep breath and said, "It's all over the place that you're a young Dou Zun with unparalleled genius!"
"I dare not presume to address you, a powerful Dou Zun, as my junior brother!"
Chu Yang was somewhat amused and exasperated. "When you were questioning me just now, I didn't see you show the slightest respect for the strong!"
Nalan Yanran turned her head away, but her eyes were full of smiles as she quietly loosened her grip on the hem of her clothes.
She appeared to be acting relaxed, but in reality, she was extremely nervous.
Nalan Yanran was testing Chu Yang by continuing to speak to him in her old tone. If she sensed anything amiss, she would immediately change her attitude.
However, it seems that nothing has changed. Although Chu Yang's strength has reached a terrifying level, he is still the junior brother who is indifferent to everything and only knows how to cultivate.
"Look! I brought a friend back for you from outside!"
Chu Yang waved his hand gently, and the little snake darted out from his sleeve. It looked at him, then at Nalan Yanran, and then tactfully jumped onto the latter's shoulder, nuzzling her cheek affectionately.
"This is?"
Nalan Yanran's eyes lit up, and she held the little snake in her palm, examining it closely.
"I named her Xiaoxiao. She is a peak sixth-tier magical beast. When I'm not around, she will be responsible for guarding the Yunlan Sect."
Chu Yang never thought that saving Yunlan Sect once would erase all past favors.
The Yunlan Sect meticulously nurtured him for ten years, providing protection during his most vulnerable stage from childhood to adolescence.
Admittedly, this was due to his talent, but if he hadn't joined the Yunlan Sect, Chu Yang might have already died in some corner of the Jia Ma Empire.
Although he entered the Soul Palace when he first faced a life-threatening situation, who knows if there were any other prerequisites for connecting to the Soul Palace?
After all, Chu Yang's understanding of the Soul Palace came from his own experiences in various worlds that were already connected to the Soul Palace.
In all the myriad worlds, in those worlds that are not connected to the Soul Palace, could there exist a version of yourself in each one?
Perhaps they haven't yet had the opportunity to enter the Soul Palace, but some may have already met with an accident before they even had a chance to enter.
Although these were just his subjective guesses, the Soul Palace was too mysterious and powerful, and many times they could only make bold guesses and carefully try and fail.
"Junior brother, it's enough that Xiaoxiao is here with me. You should go see the teacher!"
Nalan Yanran looked up at Chu Yang and said softly, "She has lost a lot of weight recently and is worried about the sect's affairs every day."
"I've already met her. I'll go down the mountain first thing tomorrow morning to resolve the sect's issues."
"You have a solution?" Nalan Yanran's eyes lit up.
Chu Yang smiled noncommittally. Seeing that he was unwilling to say more, Nalan Yanran didn't say anything more. After thinking for a moment, she asked again, "Can I go with you?"
"Want to go home?" Chu Yang saw through her thoughts.
Nalan Yanran sighed and said, "Although I don't have much affection for my family, my relatives are still there."
Chu Yang nodded and said, "No problem, I'll take care of it."
"Your teacher is quite carefree, waving her hand to isolate the Yunlan Sect from the world, but she didn't consider the potential problems that might follow, leaving me to clean up her mess!"
Nalan Yanran rolled her eyes. "Pah! You think you can clean up the teacher's mess? Dream on!"
Chu Yang's lips twitched slightly. He felt that when this girl put aside her arrogance and indifference, her thought process was really quite peculiar.
If outsiders were to see this side of Nalan Yanran, they would be absolutely astonished, because willfulness and arrogance have long been synonymous with her.
Only when facing Yun Yun does she show the demeanor of a little girl.
Only when facing Chu Yang could Nalan Yanran let go of all her airs and relax completely.
In a sense... could they be considered... childhood sweethearts?
Although Chu Yang didn't admit it, Nalan still thought so.
