Two weeks later, Floating Spear City's First Hospital.
Inside the medical cabin, Li Yao was sleeping as sweetly as a baby. However, the eyeballs under his eyelids were still trembling crazily, indicating that his dream cultivation was still ongoing.
Xie Tingxian looked at him with a face full of confusion. He confirmed with the doctor one last time, "Doctor Gu, Student Li Yao still doesn't show any signs of improvement?"
The doctor shook his head, "Professor Xie, you're quite considerate. However, this kind of brain injury and spirit root laceration patient is different from ordinary patients. It's not like they'll get better with the passage of time! Look, this is his report for the past few days. His brain's fluctuations are very strange. His Actualization Quotient is going up and down. The highest it reached was 17%, but after ten minutes, it fell to 4%. This shows that his brain is becoming more and more unstable. Or perhaps, his brain is raising an increasingly violent storm. Even if this kind of patient wakes up, do you still think he's a talent that your Deep Sea University needs? "
Xie Tingxian hesitated for a long time. He let out a long, long, long sigh. He walked to a corner, turned on his mini crystal processor, and made contact with Deep Sea University.
What appeared on the hologram was a very thin old woman. She wore a very strange golden silk robe. She seemed to be blind. Two beams of purple flames flickered in her sunken eye sockets. From time to time, they would leap out of her eye sockets, violently shooting out terrifying rays of light.
In front of this old woman, Xie Tingxian's complexion became extremely grave. He said with difficulty, "Dean Chu, can you give me another week?"
"What do you think?"
In the hologram, the blind old woman said dryly. Her throat seemed to have been scraped by a steel knife. It was incomparably hoarse and ear-piercing. "I admit that the kid you've taken a fancy to is indeed a genius. However, he has become like this. Why do you want to continue wasting time? Our Deep Sea University is the Federation's strongest university with the deepest heritage. Every year, who knows how many geniuses sharpen their minds to enter. What's the big deal if we lose this' genius'? On the other hand, there are still several projects in the university waiting for you to come back and preside over. One of them is a big project with the military. It's about the latest single assault magical equipment. If all the Federation soldiers can use the magical equipment designed by our university, you should know the value of it. "
"Understood. I'll be back today."
Xie Tingxian's eyebrows furrowed into a knot. He turned off the crystal processor and hesitated for a long time before finally making up his mind. He said to the doctor, "Doctor Gu, if student Li Yao wakes up, tell him to contact me immediately. This is my spiritual crane messenger number. Many thanks."
After he finished speaking, Deep Sea University's refining expert, Xie Tingxian, also walked out of the ward.
Once he left, he never returned.
…
Three weeks passed.
Ding Lingdang let out a big yawn in boredom. She yawned until tears flowed down her face. She glared at the man in the white coat beside her.
Doctor Gu's forehead was drenched in cold sweat. He stammered, "I'm … I'm sorry, Miss Ding. Even though you've been with him in the hospital for three weeks, even though everyone else has left and you're the only one who stays here day and night, I still can't agree with your treatment plan."
"Why?"
Ding Ling Dong's ten fingers interlocked. Her knuckles made crackling sounds. "In any case, your conservative treatment plan is useless. It's better if I directly open the medical pod, drag this brat out, and give him a good beating. Who knows, maybe he'll wake up. This is the so-called 'treating a dead horse as a living horse'!"
"No, you can't. I really can't. Don't act recklessly. Someone come quickly!"
…
Four weeks passed.
In the depths of his brain, Li Yao was still madly cultivating day and night. He was incomparably savage as he devoured Ou Yezi's memories.
After going through tens of thousands of repetitions, he had already completely broken down, devoured, digested, and absorbed the memories of Ou Yezi being reduced to a low-level worker in the Hundred Smelting Clan!
Especially the 《One Hundred and Eight Hands Chaos-Gale Hammer Technique》. He practiced it over and over again until he reached perfection. He was even more proficient than the Titan.
Li Yao had even changed the direction of Ou Yezi's memories several times. During the battle, he fiercely beat the Titan to the ground. The Titan's nose was bruised and his face was swollen. It was a good way to vent his resentment.
Fortunately, all memory fragments were independent of each other. Making changes to one memory fragment would not affect the direction of the next one.
After devouring all the memories of the "low-level worker", Li Yao was still not satisfied. He still wanted to continue devouring Ou Yezi's memories of being a "blacksmith worker".
But with the passage of time, his soul gradually became weaker. There was a feeling that it was very thin and would vanish at any time.
"Not good. I've been immersed in the depths of my brain for so long. I don't know how many days have passed in the real world. It can't be that a week has already passed, right?"
Li Yao was frightened. His soul trembled violently. Like a strange fish at the bottom of the deep sea, he rushed towards the faint light above his head and suddenly floated to the surface of the sea.
Finally, one morning after 33 days, Li Yao slightly opened his eyes on the hospital bed.
He woke up!
The first thing that caught his eyes was the yellow paper talisman stuck to his forehead. Li Yao pursed his lips and blew, lifting the paper talisman.
He found that he was inside a huge glass cover. The inside of the glass cover was densely engraved with thousands of runes, which were faintly resonating under the driving force of the milky white crystals around him.
In the void, a very comfortable fluctuation was rippling.
A faint smell of disinfectant came from the air. Looking out of the window, it was the darkest moment before dawn. A few stars were shining in the netherworld.
Li Yao did not know how long he had been lying there. His limbs were empty, and he did not have any strength.
However, his brain was very full. His soul had solidified into a solid substance, giving him a feeling of indestructibility.
It was like —
A door had been forcefully pushed open. His brain had expanded to a boundless state. A new world was being nurtured in the depths of Li Yao's brain. Every time it throbbed, it surged with an incomparably tyrannical power!
Once again, Li Yao's five senses became very sharp. His calculation ability soared to the limit. He recalled trivial matters from more than ten years ago and calculated a very complicated mathematical problem. He also easily heard the whispers of the two nurses in the corridor outside the ward.
"Hey, do you know that the guy lying inside is the famous Fiend Star?!"
"You mean that unlucky Li Yao? I know him, but why does everyone call him 'Fiend Star'?"
"I heard that he was originally a rising star in Floating Spear City. He was fought over by the Nine Elite Universities. Everyone thought of him as the second 'Fiend Blade Peng Hai'. However, because of an accident, his spirit root was torn and he fell into a coma. His Actualization Quotient fell to the bottom, leaving him with only 7%. He was practically a cripple! All of a sudden, the universities that wanted to specially recruit him all gave up. He also turned from a rising star to a shooting star that disappeared in a flash. Yes, a very monstrous shooting star, so he was called the 'Fiend Star'! "
"So that's how it is. Speaking of which, he is really pitiful. I heard that he is the same as Peng Hai, a poor kid from the slums. Think about it, a poor kid who could reach the heavens in one step, a carp leaping over the dragon gate, caught the attention of the Nine Elite Universities, and was about to set foot on the road of cultivation and break into the upper class circle — but at the crucial moment, he was beaten back to his original state by an accident! If I were him, I would rather sleep and never wake up. If I woke up and found that I had fallen into such a situation, I would definitely commit suicide! "
"Who said otherwise? His Actualization Quotient is only left with 7%. He is simply unsuitable for cultivation — even my Actualization Quotient is at 21%!"
The two young nurses laughed together.
Li Yao lay motionless on the bed, quietly listening. His eyes were filled with doubt and ridicule.
"His Actualization Quotient is only left with 7%? What a joke! Right now, I feel so good that I want to explode! "
Looking left and right, this ward even had a small balcony.
Li Yao pulled out the tube inserted into his body, pushed open the glass cover, and quietly got out of bed. He tiptoed to the balcony and closed the door behind him.
Floating Spear City was like a sleeping giant beast, quietly lying in the darkness.
Occasionally, a few floating shuttles would streak across the night sky. Their tails were like rainbows, but in the blink of an eye, they would be swallowed by the netherworld.
The Spirit Root was the foundation of every cultivator. It was closely related to a person's five senses and thinking. Everyone could generally sense their own Actualization Quotient, and what level it was at.
"My five senses are sharper than before, and my thinking has also become clearer. I can even easily recall things from a long time ago. Although I don't have the feeling of sprouting bamboo shoots in my forehead, my brain field has become much wider!"
"If my brain field was like a small pond before, now it is like a boundless ocean. My Spirit Root is at least twice as strong as before, and my Actualization Quotient has increased by at least seventeen to eighteen percent. How could it not increase but instead decrease, and even fall to 7%?"
Li Yao laughed involuntarily.
A sudden drop in the Actualization Quotient would certainly bring about a very strong reaction. For example, a splitting headache, fuzzy thinking, memory loss, loss of five senses, or even directly turning one into an idiot!
It was completely different from his current state of being refreshed and filled with boundless energy!
Li Yao's first thought was that the hospital's testing equipment had made a mistake, but the possibility of this was very small.
After thinking about it, the biggest possibility was that in the process of swallowing Ou Yezi's memories, he had consumed too much of his spiritual power, which caused his Actualization Quotient to temporarily drop.
However, it was precisely because he had swallowed Ou Yezi's memories that his brain field had opened up. From now on, his cultivation would be absolutely smooth sailing, and he would advance a thousand miles in a day.
Thinking about Ou Yezi's memories, Li Yao's mouth hooked up into a smile.
He separated his legs and casually threw a punch, but with three "Bang Bang Bang" sounds, three ripples that tore through the air appeared right in front of the punch.
"This Heart-Piercing Hammer, I have really mastered it!"
"I don't know how many days I have been lying in bed. My body has been greatly exhausted. Right now, I am as thin as a matchstick, and my limbs are weak!"
"In this state, a casual punch can actually create three ripples in the air. If I properly rest for a few days and eat a few hundred cans of Giant of Starry Sky meat, my body will return to its peak state. I'm afraid that I might even be able to create ten ripples in the air in one go!"
Looking at the Morning Star on the horizon, Li Yao's heart rose and fell like a tidal wave. He simply wanted to recklessly roar and vent the pleasure in his heart to his heart's content.
This time, when he woke up from his deep sleep, it was completely different from last time's dream of grandeur.
Everything that he experienced in the dream of grandeur was mottled and ephemeral. In the blink of an eye, it was like a passing cloud, completely dissipating.
This time, he remembered everything that happened in the dream!
Ou Yezi's memories had completely transformed into his own memories!
Li Yao's eyes were bright and full of expression, and the bones in his entire body emitted a burst of crackling sounds. On this small balcony, he used his fist as a hammer, displaying the "One Hundred and Eight Hands Chaoscape Hammer Technique". He only felt that it was like moving clouds and flowing water, linking up from top to bottom, flowing smoothly. The small balcony was completely enveloped by the tip of his fist. The ripples in the air were like ripples that spread out in circles, causing his figure to become strangely distorted.
"A fleeting Fiend Star? Not bad, not bad. The name 'Fiend Star' sounds really good. It's more suitable for big occasions than 'Vulture'! "
"There will be a day when the name 'Fiend Star' will shake the Federation and spread throughout the entire Tian Yuan Realm!"
Just as Li Yao stretched his muscles to their limits, a shriek suddenly came from behind him.
