Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 70: Demon Star

After “devouring” about a dozen early memory fragments of Eurometallurgy, Li Yao was very surprised to discover that a memory fragment, originally of ordinary color, had also become glowing and sparkling!

Consciousness dives in and probes, but discovers memories that could only be watched. It can also be freely manipulated and watched repeatedly!

This discovery reinforces his conviction that, as long as his divine soul grows and the memory fragments that could not have been exploited, one day they will become the most beautiful “food”, completely devoured by him!

From this moment on, Li Yao has almost forgotten the passage of time.

Like a most greedy thief, he inadvertently discovered a treasure trove of wealthy enemies, stuck in a treasure of gold and silver, unhappy to steal, never thinking of leaving.

Early memories of Ouyang were turned upside down and stolen from the sky.

Over and over again, the 108-Hand Cloak Hammer Law was deeply imprinted in Li Yao's divine soul and will never be forgotten.

And in the real world, time is passing fast.

A week went by in the blink of an eye.

An accident on Magic Island resulted in the tragic death of nine players and the serious bodily injury and coma of one.

This is a tragedy that is rare in federal extreme challenge contests over the years.

Because of this tragedy, the game ended, and the investigation began, and soon it became clear that it was because an athlete had broken the rules to bring in doping, which was taken away by a demon beast, and after the injection, an amazing mutation occurred!

But the player was killed by the demon beast in the first place, paying for his actions with his life.

And the dealer who sold him the stimulant, after learning about it, actually feared suicide and drew an unsatisfactory end to the whole thing.

After a thorough examination of this dealer's underground workshop, it was discovered that the "Ghost Dragon 7 stimulant" he sold, not even the real Ghost Dragon 7, was a mixture made from several kinds of stimulant, fortifier residues, and God knows what the ingredients are.

Only the demonic beast's strong body can withstand the devastation of this “counterfeit stimulant". If the student injects it, he will die from the explosion.

The most deplorable thing about the whole thing, besides the nine tragic candidates, was Li Yao, who was seriously injured and in a coma.

The local news media in Fungo City published a series of commentary articles under the title "The Flashing Demon Star".

“Li Yao, originally a rising star, just created the former Ancient Man in the Extreme Challenge Games, and the results of the latter, received the common attention of the nine elite colleges! ”

“Such a young man should have a brilliant future, but because of an accident, prematurely lost the opportunity to enter the realm of cultivation, his brain was subjected to a strange mental attack, the pineal gland was almost completely torn, and the development of spiritual roots dropped to 7%, which is almost the level of elementary school children, even if he can wake up, I'm afraid he can no longer cultivate! ”

The article says in a very sad tone.

In the major forums, there are far more diverse comments on this from online users.

A lot of people mourned Li Yao: “Too bad, if it wasn't for this accident, I'm afraid he would have been specially recruited by the nine elite colleges, it would be too bad now! ”

And there's a lot of people who are happy, and they say, “Who told him to be so arrogant? Put the whole Blue Square Command Center in one pot? Kick out dozens of people at once? That's great, hit him back in time for an accident! ”

But for the vast majority of people, it's just a small, insignificant thing.

In this era of the Big Bang of Information, the big news can only be lively for three days, not to mention the upcoming college entrance exam, no one can practise madly, who will follow other people's news all the time?

Isn't that just a genius crashing down?

The Federation is so big that every day there are a lot of powerful people, geniuses, because of that reason, either they get fired into the demons, they are devoured by demonic beasts, or they die silently in sectarian clandestine battles.

Compared to them, what is Li Yao?

After a few days of liveliness, the accident on Magic Island soon went silent, and Li Yao's “flashing demon star” was also forgotten.

……

A week later, Fungo City First Hospital, ICU.

A huge metal medical compartment, engraved with circles and turns of spirit, forms a huge array of symbols.

The array is also surrounded by hundreds of milky white crystals, slightly oscillating and exudes tranquil fluctuations.

Li Yao lay motionlessly in the medical cabin. The white body under the single appeared exceptionally thin and dry. He was stuck with pipes all over his body, and his forehead was attached to a spirit symbol of the soul of Anshen.

Under the charm, his eyelids beat wildly, immersed in a nightmare of immense intensity.

Zhao Shude and Xie Hearing String stood on the bed and listened to a doctor in a white coat explain Li Yao's condition.

“Mr. Li Yao's body is not a major obstacle, but he was injured by the mental attack of a mutant giant ape. The root of the spirit was completely torn apart and his brain was in a state of immense chaos! ”

“His body naturally enters a state of ‘deep sleep' to protect his brain, in which his brain is like a black hole, wildly absorbing energy from the octagonal pulse, limb carcasses, and you see, even if we keep injecting fortifiers and energetic nutrients into his body, it won't help. ”

“In one second, his brain will consume the energy needed by the human brain for a month or even a year! ”

The white coat sighed.

Zhao Shude frowned deeply and asked: “Dr. Gu, in your experience, when exactly will Li Yao wake up? Also, his roots are torn, and his roots are only 7% developed. What are the chances of recovering when he wakes up? ”

The white coat smiled bitterly.

“Principal Zhao, I am so ashamed. The situation of Li Yao is something I have not encountered in so many years of entering the realm of cultivation! The giant ape that attacked him was a mutant mutant after injecting the stimulant, but it was simply a messy inferior drug, no one knew what the specific ingredients were, nor to what extent the giant ape's mental attacks were distorted, much less what the consequences would be for the human brain - in this case, we would have to wait! ”

Zhao Shude's face grew darker and darker. He was somewhat disappointed: “Dr. Gu, you are one of the finest undergraduate teachers in Fungo City. You don't even know that you are deeply involved in the spiritual field? ”

White coat:

“The human brain is the most complex organ of Xuan Ao; the spiritual domain, and the mysterious world that ordinary people cannot imagine! ”

“To this day, the civilization of cultivation has grown, and we know the human body; but the brain, it is still a forbidden zone to spy on! ”

“I also tried to get into Li Yao's brain, but was blocked by a fierce force. I almost lost my temper - it looks like the stimulant must be very powerful, intensifying the emotional attack of the giant ape! ”

“In this case, nobody knows when Li Yao will wake up, lucky, possibly tomorrow; unlucky, possibly a lifetime of ‘deep sleep' in the past, unknown. ”

After a pause, he said, "However, this serious injury caused the pineal corpus tear, and the development of the spiritual roots dropped dramatically. In the last 300 years, there have been hundreds of cases. The vast majority of people have become untrainable cripples after the spiritual roots tear. Only a small number of people can recover, up to seven or eight, so if you ask me if Li Yao can still practice, my answer is —— probability is no more than 1%! ”

Zhao Shude sighed a long time, and the colour of disappointment overflowed the table of words.

He walked to the corner, opened the miniature crystal brain on his wrist, and a Wen Wenya middle-aged man appeared in the light, the "Zhou Yin” of the Akami elder!

“No hope?” Zhou Xian guessed at the look on Zhao Shude's face and asked faintly.

“Yes, the doctor doesn't know when he will wake up, and even if he does, the chances of retraining are less than 1%.” Zhao Shude said very unfortunately.

Zhou Xian nodded his head and the color remained the same: “It's a pity, but there's no way, the realm of repair is so cruel, every second countless days are born, every second countless days fall. To become a true fixer, talent, diligence, connections, luck, lack of one, he is a genius, but without a little luck, who can blame? From now on, take back all the resources that you were going to put into him. I remember your school's Hershey and Shijiaxue are good. Give those resources to both of them! ”

“Yes, everything was arranged by the elder Zhou. By the way, this Li Yao and Herren Ri made some further misunderstandings on Magic Island. Director Herren was very unhappy. If Li Yao wakes up, they...”

Zhao Shude asked probatively.

Zhou Qian smiled very gently. "I used to look after Li Yao as a good seedling worthy of cultivation; but at the moment, he has become a waste, what else does it have to do with me? He doesn't have to talk to me about it. ”

“I see. ”

Zhao Shude closed Jing brain and walked to the white coat. “Since even Dr. Gu said so, I had to watch the change. Dr. Gu, I'm going to take a step first - Professor Xie, what do you say? ”

Thanks for listening to the string hesitate for a moment, "I'll wait. ”

Zhao Shude nodded and went outside.

As soon as he stepped out of the door, he looked back at Li Yao in the medical cabin.

Lieutenant Colonel Qiao Shude's eyes became as cold as a bag of garbage.
