Chapter 1513: Chapter 1508: Human Tree (17)
This one seems even more vibrant. Demigod Aike still has such a fondness for wood, huh.
From Fu Qian’s perspective, it’s completely understandable for Purifier Luyi to have such a reaction.
Anyone whose stomach has a tree growing out of it is bound to question their existence a little.
But in a blink of an eye, the struggling flesh had already transford into a humanoid green tree, vaguely making one feel like it could bear ginseng fruits.
Of course, as the person involved, Luyi clearly found it hard to harbor such pleasant hopes.
“This… why…”
He finally managed to tear his gaze away with difficulty and looked at Aike, who was orchestrating all of this.
“The impact of this state is relatively minimal, it will let you live a bit longer. Rember not to think about pulling it out.”
Though there was no blood on his hands, as he responded, the latter still wiped his hands gently on his clothes, clearly disliking the sensation of having reached into the stomach just monts before.
As for why there was a need to do this, in this regard, the experienced Fu Qian could quite understand—Lord Aike was likely trying to locate accurately the part acting as the “umbilical cord” between the two, avoiding an incomplete transformation.
“…So how much longer can I live?”
Regarding the state in his stomach, Luyi, about his life, naturally couldn’t be optimistic. At this mont, under Aike’s dical advice, he finally couldn’t resist asking.
“Not very long, so we better hurry to find a way to leave here.”
Unfortunately, Mr. Li Sr. clearly had no intention of letting Aike continue providing psychological counseling services, and straightforwardly pushed forward to the next topic.
…
“Leaving here?”
Truly befitting a High Tier Transcendent, the previous sword stroke seed to have left quite a psychological shadow, unable to be offset even by the fear of death.
Luyi froze for a few seconds, finally not insisting, but continued to ask.
“Although currently it can’t be proven, we suspect this place might not be real, and the Larea offspring nad Benjamin you ntioned might be the key to leaving.”
To this, Li He extrely succinctly explained the results of the previous exploration.
Not real…
It was evident that, at that mont, Luyi had a trace of relief on his face, the shadow of death seed to fade a little.
“But isn’t he here? Although I don’t know how he ended up in my stomach…”
In such an emotional state, his thinking was slightly more active, once again staring directly at the ghastly creation climbing on his body.
“Good question, but it’s almost certain that it’s not Benjamin, entirely composed of a part of your body.”
Aike, who manipulated it himself, undoubtedly had the most authority to speak on this, and glanced at Fu Qian while speaking.
It was obvious that when her hand went inside earlier, she confird the speculation ntioned before.
“But why such a change happened is indeed a question we need to consider.”
On this matter, Fu Qian showed no sign of arrogance, but quickly offered further views.
“So what do you think the possible reason is?”
For such resolute behavior, Mr. Li Sr. obviously had great appreciation and continued to seek his opinion.
“Can you still hear the crying?”
Fu Qian did not refuse and directly looked at Luyi.
…
Crying…
As if suddenly awakened, Luyi obviously recalled the issue before the crisis happened.
“I can still… but the sound has beco much quieter, is this related to the changes in my body?”
Concentrating for a few seconds, he uncontrollably showed a bit of tension.
“Unfortunately, it seems so.”
Fu Qian’s phrasing was anything but tactful, with his eyes on Ji Ning as he spoke.
“Do you think his state just now is similar to the attempted consciousness death from before?”
“Not entirely the sa but close.”
The latter sighed and nodded affirmatively in a second.
She clearly understood Fu Qian’s intention.
Previously, when attempting to escape directly through consciousness death, although the goal wasn’t achieved, there was an unexpected gain—that erosion didn’t increase during the process.
At the sa ti, since consciousness died, it naturally ant the crying wasn’t received.
Regarding Luyi’s experience, it could almost be certain that the crying that followed behind was the way of erosion accumulation, reaching a certain limit, and—
Her gaze fell on the tree in front of Luyi; Ji Ning’s complexion was unpleasant, trying to control imagining a similar scene happening to herself.
“If so, my judgnt is that the source of crying has locked onto everyone in a special way, like it’s following behind each person.”
Having gotten the answer, Fu Qian was now handing in the exam to Mr. Li Sr.
“And the crying will bring so kind of accumulation effect, and when it reaches a certain level, it will manifest in a similar manner.”
He pointed around and finally rested on Luyi.
“This is also why, unlike others, Lord Luyi’s resistance as a Transcendent was a bit stronger, only making him into a cradle with the crying then and not yet at the usage stage.”
“And then he entered a state akin to false death until we awakened him and the accumulation continued.”
…
“A very reasonable deduction.”
Following Fu Qian’s narration, everyone present, except Mr. Li Sr., had increasingly dire expressions.
The latter, however, paid no regard to this team atmosphere and straightforwardly praised Fu Qian’s statent.
“But according to Luyi, his body lost control rapidly at the ti; do you think it is related to the close contact with that Benjamin?”
It turns out that the team mbers’ ntal resilience was reliable; although they genuinely didn’t like this developnt, Aike still gathered spirits and continued deduction along the current thought line.
“Yes, it seems the most likely reason, and then he entered another state, as did we.”
Mr. Li Sr. sighed, naturally referring to this unreal scene before their eyes.
“But even so, it seems like we’re still at a loss.”
In terms of pursuit, Aike was still evidently very proactive and aggressive.
However, though the situation was becoming clearer, Lady Ji Ning’s previous traps resulted in nothing…
“I really don’t know where that thing went…”
Even though he painted a bleak picture of himself, Luyi had no reason to refute it at the mont and could only provide powerless information.
“Don’t be so pessimistic, there’s not entirely no way.”
Under the oppressively tense atmosphere, surprisingly, it was the specialized morale-booster Fu Qian who stepped up to lift spirits.
“You have a way?”
Aike’s eyes imdiately lit up.
From start to finish, he had to admit, despite being quite enigmatic, this guy’s performance was truly impressive.
“I do, but it might require so patience.”
Fu Qian pointed around at the residual remains.
“Have you guys considered, if a Benjamin crawled out of every single one of these, where did they all go later?”
“… That’s a good question, but what’s the relation with patience?”
Imagining that scene, Aike furrowed his brow tightly.
“It does, just wait a bit, when the next one crawls out, we can follow it to see.”
