Thump!
Thump!
Li Miaocai, Ji Siyuan, Chen Xiaoyu, Zhao Sanyuan, Cao Jun, Luo Qing, and the other veteran Half-Emperors who had come from the capital all began to feel their hearts beat faster. Their breathing slowed down, and they stared at Yang Fan without blinking.
This was their real purpose for coming to the Xuan Chu Guard's Mansion from thousands of miles away.
The Dao injury had troubled and tormented them for more than half a century. It had always been their biggest concern and sore point. It was unbearable pain, and they couldn't get rid of it. Ever since they broke through to the Half-Emperor Realm, the joy of obtaining great power and the despair of being tortured by the Dao injury had been entangling them.
It wasn't until they met Yang Fan more than a month ago that they saw a glimmer of hope.
And now, it was the key for them to verify that glimmer of hope.
Just now, when they had just arrived at the Xuan Chu Guard's Mansion and met Tian Xiu Zhu and Fang Shengyu again, they had not seen each other for a long time.
Whether it was Li Miaocai, Ji Sicheng, or some other members of the Jellyfish Awakening Team, they were all surprised and pleasantly surprised to find that the backlash of the Dao injury in Tian Xiu Zhu and Fang Shengyu's bodies had been completely contained.
Although it didn't completely disappear as they had imagined, the speed of the backlash of the Dao injury was already within a controllable range.
This meant that Tian Xiu Zhu and Fang Shengyu no longer had to work hard day and night, and they didn't dare to stop for a moment, for the sake of their diminishing Life Source and Spirit Source.
They were free.
Without the threat of the depletion of their Life Source and Life Source, they could finally have some free time to come and go.
Even prisoners who were going to prison would have some time to come out and get some fresh air. However, these Half-Emperors, who had been plagued by the Dao injury for nearly half a century or even longer, didn't even have this pitiful time to get some fresh air.
Now, they finally saw a glimmer of hope and possibility. How could they not be excited, excited, and nervous?
"Can it succeed?"
"Are we finally going to enjoy the good times after suffering?"
"Even if it can't be completely removed, it's still good to temporarily suppress it. All these years, in order to make up for the consumption of my Dao injury, in order to live for a few more years, I've been cultivating day and night, cultivating again and again, going into seclusion again and again. I'm about to collapse!"
"You must succeed. Don't create more exceptions and accidents at the last moment. That would be too disgusting …"
"…"
The numerous Half-Emperors communicated via voice transmissions, and they were filled with anticipation, impatience, excitement, and worry. Their hearts rose and fell indeterminately, and they were unable to calm down.
"Relax, it'll be quick!"
When Yang Fan saw that Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng were somewhat nervous, he couldn't help but smile. After softly comforting them, he cast two Advanced Healing Spells on them.
"You have used [Advanced Healing Technique] on Level 6 Martial Emperor (Incomplete) Li Miaocai. The treatment was successful. Li Miaocai's injuries have been partially healed. His vitality has been greatly replenished. Mental Power + 20, Mental Willpower + 20, Skill Proficiency + 10."
"Ding! You have used [Advanced Healing Technique] on Level 6 Martial Emperor (Incomplete) Li Miaocai. You have discovered that Li Miaocai's Divine Soul Source has been interfered with and imprisoned by a special energy. Successfully triggered [Advanced Healing Technique] Companion Skill — Purification! "
"Ding! You have used [Purification] Companion Skill on Level 6 Martial Emperor (Incomplete) Li Miaocai. The skill was successful. The special energy interfered with and imprisoned by Li Miaocai's body has been partially purified! Mental Power + 4, Mental Willpower + 4, Skill Proficiency + 10. "
"You have used [Advanced Healing Technique] on Level 5 Martial Emperor (Incomplete) Ji Sicheng. The treatment was successful. Ji Sicheng's injuries have been partially healed …"
"…"
"Ding! You have used [Purification] Companion Skill on Level 5 Martial Emperor (Incomplete) Ji Sicheng. The skill was successful. The special energy interfered with and imprisoned by Ji Sicheng's body has been partially purified! Mental Power + 4, Mental Willpower + 4, Skill Proficiency + 10. "
Just as Yang Fan had said, it would be quick.
With just a wave of his hand, the [Advanced Healing Technique] had already taken effect. After that, Yang Fan had nothing to do.
The healing light that enveloped Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng's bodies lasted for less than a minute before it completely dissipated.
There was no explosion of Qi and blood or mental power as expected. There was also no sign of Heaven and Earth Anomaly.
From an outsider's point of view, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng's bodies did not seem to have any abnormal changes. There was almost no difference from before the treatment.
Among the people present, only Zhuge Xincheng, Tian Xiu Zhu, Fang Shengyu, and Ji Danyun, who had already comprehended nine shackles of the natural order, could clearly sense the changes. Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng were the same as them. They had broken their first shackle of the natural order and understood their own path to becoming an Emperor.
After a while.
Two or three minutes later, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng both woke up from the silent sea of consciousness. Their eyes were slightly red and their expressions were difficult to suppress. At the same time, they raised their heads and looked at Yang Fan with excitement and gratitude.
"Young friend Yang Fan, I can't thank you enough for your kindness! I will remember this kindness. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay you generously! "
"Master Yang Fan's kindness is like a rebirth. Please accept Sicheng's bow!"
After saying that, the two of them stood up from the sofa at the same time and bowed to Yang Fan respectfully with their hands clasped in front of their chest.
Yang Fan did not turn sideways to avoid them. He accepted their bow with a straight face. Then, with a smile on his face, he said softly, "Seniors, you are too polite. This is what I should do!"
"Back when I was in the capital, I had already made a promise to all of you. Now, I am just fulfilling a lie."
"However, I still feel a little apologetic that I did not directly help the two of you to completely remove the poison in your bodies and help the two of you to successfully step into the True Emperor Realm."
Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng waved their hands repeatedly. "No, no. Young friend, you have already done us a great favor. How would we dare to be greedy and ask for more?"
What a joke.
What Yang Fan had opened up for them was a dazzling, bright, and extremely wide path to becoming an Emperor. As long as they followed this path, they would be able to transcend all shackles one day and step into the True Emperor Realm.
This was already far, far beyond their expectations, right? How could he still dare to have any dissatisfaction and complaints?
Compared to this path to becoming an Emperor, the problem of Dao injuries that they had been worried about before was almost not a problem anymore.
"Now, I finally understand why Lord Thunder Emperor decided to temporarily suspend the Hibernation Awakening Plan and insisted on us coming to the Guardian Mansion at the risk of exposing all the members of the Hibernation Awakening Plan!"
Ji Sicheng and Li Miaocai looked at each other and secretly sighed to Li Miaocai through voice transmission.
"Compared to all the members of the Hibernation Awakening Team recovering their Dao injuries and comprehending the path to becoming an Emperor, the Hibernation Awakening Plan is indeed not that important anymore!"
If Ji Sicheng had known that they, as Half-Emperors, would have obtained such astonishing gains from Yang Fan, he would not have acted as the bad guy and deliberately stopped Li Miaocai from suggesting the trip to the Guardian Mansion.
"Yes, there are 19 of us. No, with Gu Zeyan and the other eight, there should be 27 Half-Emperors now."
Li Miaocai continued, "Even if only one of these twenty-seven people can break through the ninth shackle and step into the True Emperor Realm, it will still be much more meaningful than the Awakening Plan that we are hosting!"
The appearance of a True Emperor powerhouse was far more important than the 27 Half-Emperors, whether it was an increase in the top combat strength of the Human Race, the stimulation of the faith of many Human Race cultivators, or the deterrence of the Fiend Realm!
The Human Race needed a fourth, fifth, or even more True Emperors to appear.
In a battle between True Emperors, the 20 or so Half-Emperors did not even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder.
"The reason why the news was not spread before was probably because the Thunder Emperor had issued a gag order, or he had directly used a spiritual seal on the people who knew the news."
Recalling how Tian Xiu Zhu and Fang Shengyu wanted to say something but hesitated and kept hinting at them, Li Miaocai instantly understood.
"Indeed." Ji Sicheng said, "This kind of news must be kept strictly confidential. If it is really leaked, the reaction of the Fiend Realm will be unprecedentedly intense."
"At least, young friend Yang Fan's situation will become more dangerous. Even the Five Great Fiend Emperors of the Fiend Realm may directly break out of seclusion."
The Half-Emperors of the Human Race had all obtained the opportunity to become Emperors because of Yang Fan and understood the Great Dao of becoming Emperors. This was definitely an earth-shattering blow to the Five Great Holy Lands of the Fiend Realm, and even the Five Great Fiend Emperors of the Fiend Realm.
If the news was leaked, Ji Sicheng and Li Miaocai would almost certainly know what the Fiend Realm would do next.
The ultimate war between the Human Race and the Fiend Realm would inevitably start ahead of schedule. The Half-Emperors who had not yet reached the Dao, and the instigator Yang Fan, would inevitably become the targets of the Fiend Realm and the Five Great Fiend Emperors of the Fiend Realm.
"Very good!"
"Since the two of you have already understood the importance of this matter, there is no need for this poor Taoist to explain anything to you."
"Now, relax your spiritual guard. This poor Taoist and the Spirit Emperor girl will join hands to place a spiritual seal in your Soul Origins, just in case!"
At this time, Li Miaocai and Ji Sicheng were secretly communicating with each other. Suddenly, the Thunder Emperor's Soul Transmission sounded in their Sea of Consciousness.
The two of them quivered, and quickly nodded to stop talking. They were shocked in their hearts.
It seemed that they had still somewhat underestimated the importance that the Thunder Emperor attached to this matter. Otherwise, how could two Emperors join hands to set up a double spiritual seal at the same time?
Moreover, the Thunder Emperor had been with the Spirit Emperor all this time. It seemed that the reason why the two Emperors' disciples, Sima Xuefeng and Mei Cailan, had suddenly chosen to worship Yang Fan as their master, must have been instructed by the two Emperors.
For Yang Fan to be able to obtain the favor and high regard of the Thunder Emperor and the Spirit Emperor at the same time, it could be said that he had reached the heavens in a single bound!
