Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 720: This matter needs to be asked of the Ancestor
Chapter 720: This matter needs to be asked of the Ancestor
...
"Heaven's Calculation! Is there some kind of treasure that can leave behind a convincing fake body in place while the real body escapes like a cicada shedding its skin?"
Yes, that's right.
Chen Huaian planned to give the demon immortal avatar that had taken over Muscle Tyrant the illusion that he was still at the Exorcist Division, then go ahead and collect the fierce beasts from the Demon Sealing Pagoda in advance.
The main purpose of doing this was still to intimidate those two demon immortal avatars, giving them the misconception that their actions were constantly being monitored.
This way, the next time they took action, these two demon immortal avatars would have to ponder carefully and think twice before acting.
After all, he didn't want the Well of Heaven to open so quickly—his strength wasn't sufficient to deal with the possible anomalies that might appear after the Well of Heaven opened.
So he had to delay the pace of the two great demon immortal avatars.
He needed to gradually open the Well of Heaven according to his own rhythm.Ensuring that by the time the Well of Heaven fully opened, he already had enough strength or sufficient hidden cards up his sleeve.
For example... being able to use the Sect Summoning Token to summon an immortal from the Cangyun Realm or something...
[Heaven's Calculation in progress... This is your first calculation today, this calculation is free!]
Chen Huaian clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, there must be this kind of treasure! This Venerable One is willing to trade Wang Shouyi being unable to get frisky for a week in exchange for clues about this treasure!"
After talking to himself, Chen Huaian fell silent for a moment.
Heaven's Calculation relied on the Heavenly Dao of the Cangyun Realm.
The Heavenly Dao of the Cangyun Realm didn't seem to be able to affect Earth Star...
So he changed his wording.
"Amitabha, better not use Wang Shouyi for the trade, let's use Zhang Mengchu being unable to get frisky for a week instead."
[Currently performing Heaven's Calculation for you...]
Such a prompt flashed once again on Chen Huaian's phone.
...
Cangyun Realm, Immortal Realm.
"Sword Bearer! Sword Bearer! Something's wrong!"
Real Person Jade Compassion ran around frantically, holding a golden eyeball that was as red as fire and constantly pulsating.
Just moments ago, for some unknown reason, while she was transferring energy to the Origin Core, the Heavenly Dao eyeball that the Sword Bearer had temporarily entrusted to her suddenly went berserk.
Although the Sword Bearer had replicated the Peach Blossom Spring of the Void Abyss into the Immortal Realm.
He had even included the former residence of that fox Tu Shan Yue.
But she had no idea where the Sword Bearer was!
She could only run around like a headless fly, shouting "Sword Bearer" everywhere.
After shouting for a while and getting tired.
She simply omitted one character.
"Sword man... Sword man! Come out quickly!"
"Your eyeball is about to explode!"
"What are you shouting about?" White Sword's impatient voice sounded behind Real Person Jade Compassion.
Real Person Jade Compassion jumped in fright: "No, couldn't you make some noise when you appear? It's really scary, you know?!"
White Sword couldn't be bothered to waste words with Real Person Jade Compassion, casually waved his hand, and the Heavenly Dao eyeball fell into his grasp.
He didn't speak, just glanced faintly at Real Person Jade Compassion, then disappeared from her sight.
"Like a ghost..." Real Person Jade Compassion looked at the place where the Sword Bearer had disappeared, unable to resist pouting.
...
Meanwhile.
The Sword Bearer clenched the Heavenly Dao eyeball and read the information within.
"What is this kid planning to do now? A treasure that can leave a fake body behind while the real body escapes like a cicada shedding its skin?"
He furrowed his brows.
Wasn't this kind of treasure everywhere in the Cangyun Realm?
But if you wanted a fake body that could completely pass as real, there really weren't any.
Most were just simple substitutes—enemies would only need to carefully probe with their Divine Sense to detect something amiss.
"Never mind, I suppose it's for the progress on Earth Star's side. I shall create one for you!" White Sword casually waved his hand, and various rare materials appeared on the floor before him. Any single one of these materials, if placed in the Cangyun Realm, could cause cultivators to scramble for them, even stirring up violent conflicts.
But in his eyes, these were just the most worthless materials.
It wasn't that he couldn't use better materials, but they would inevitably be restricted by Earth Star's natural laws, making them less effective than these materials.
White Sword picked through these materials, eventually selecting a piece of wood emitting a faint white glow.
"One hundred thousand year Blue Silver Wood." He weighed the wood in his hand, then took out a small knife and began carving the wood.
His movements were slow, but each stroke caused large amounts of wood shavings to fall.
In just two or three breaths of time, the wood had become a miniature version of Chen Huaian, or rather—a miniature version of him.
"If you want a fake body that can pass as real, then you must endow the fake body with soul and life..."
The Sword Bearer touched the wooden figurine, light faintly circulating at his fingertips. As the light brightened and dimmed, the wood carving seemed to come alive, vivid and lifelike.
The wooden figurine's eyeballs rotated, and its face showed expressions of terror and confusion like a real person.
"To avoid the tail wagging the dog, we must strip away its intelligence." As White Sword spoke, he wiped his finger over the wooden figurine's eyes, and the figurine's expression instantly became vacant.
It still looked vivid and lifelike, but clearly lacked some spiritual energy.
"Done." White Sword examined the wooden figurine up and down, finally revealing a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.
This treasure had no name, but it completely met Chen Huaian's requirements.
All Chen Huaian needed to do was drip a drop of blood on it, and the figurine would exist as Chen Huaian's fake body. No one below the True Immortal realm would be able to see through it.
"Although the item isn't valuable, the karma that should be settled cannot be avoided."
White Sword pulled out the sand table of the Cangyun Realm and pointed remotely toward the Moon Shadow Sect direction.
Moon Shadow Sect—
Zhang Mengchu, who had been getting along well with Liu Cuie for some time and was in the process of undressing, suddenly changed expression.
"No... this isn't right!"
"Master, what's not right?" From behind the gauze curtain came Liu Cuie's lazy, lingering voice.
Zhang Mengchu's face stiffened, he wanted to speak but stopped, stopped but wanted to speak.
Finally, he turned to look at Liu Cuie, forcing a strained smile onto his face.
"Well, Cuie... how about we stop here for today? Your Master remembered there are very important matters not yet done... with so many sects about to relocate near the Moon Shadow Sect, your Senior Brother Li alone probably can't handle it all. Your Master should go and help out."
"Ah... is that so?" Liu Cuie sounded somewhat disappointed.
She had thought today she could finally achieve the ultimate union with her Master, but she wasn't the type to make unreasonable demands.
A large part of why she had quickly won Zhang Mengchu's affection was precisely because she was well-behaved and understanding.
"Master, please go attend to your matters. I'll wait here obediently for your return."
Zhang Mengchu looked at Liu Cuie's well-behaved and docile appearance and felt affectionate, gently stroking Liu Cuie's face.
Then he pretended to be in a great hurry as he went out.
Outside the cave dwelling.
Zhang Mengchu frowned, full of suspicion.
"This shouldn't be happening, I've already reached the Void Shattering realm as a cultivator, how could I still experience problems like mortal men?
This simply doesn't make sense!
Could it be that my psychological pressure is too great?
Yes, that must be it!"
Zhang Mengchu sighed.
He really was too concerned about his reputation, unable to make a move on his own disciple.
It seemed he needed to learn more from the ancestor, ask the ancestor how he managed to be so thick-skinned and go through with it...
