Immortal Devil Transformation

When one gives up on one world, it often means that they’ve obtained another one.

With loss, there will definitely be gain

Lin Xi stood up. He looked at that shining icy blue whirlpool, and then released a light sigh inside.

“You figured it out?”

Nangong Weiyang, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue returned to his side. “What did Principal Zhang’s words really mean?”

“I do not know if you all will understand even if I explain it.”

Lin Xi began to feel truly calm inside. He looked at his comrades and said with a gentle voice, “All cultivators obtain energy from this world. The more powerful the cultivation, the more energy that will naturally accumulate within their body. But from a certain perspective, neither Principal Zhang nor me can be considered someone from this world. Our bodies have a huge wave of power within us… This power might be related to this icy blue whirlpool, it might be some energy we obtained from this void passage… In our world, all those who have studied a bit understand that the creation of a time-space passage requires a terrifyingly great amount of energy.”

The concepts of a different civilization were naturally extremely hard for the people of this world to understand.

Nangong Weiyang thought for a long time, and then she finally nodded towards that shining blue whirlpool. “I believe that even if it is just a small chunk of this icy blue whirlpool’s power, it still wouldn’t be something any cultivators of this world could contend against… Can I interpret this as your Divine Ability coming precisely from a small chunk of energy like this? In other words, there is already a tremendous portion of natural vital energy within your body?”

When he heard Nangong Weiyang explain her thoughts, starting from using the word energy back to unknowingly using this world’s vital energy again, Lin Xi thus knew that the term vital energy might be easier for them to understand than his past world’s energy. As such, he nodded and said seriously, “Correct. You can understand this as the bodies of both me and Principal Zhang storing an astonishing amount of natural vital energy to begin with. It is precisely the power produced by this vital energy that allows us to have our Divine General ability.”

“And then?” Nangong Weiyang shook her head. She looked at Lin Xi and said, “I can understand all of these words, but you’ve always had your Divine General ability. I do not understand what you are trying to say.”contemporary romance

“Then I’ll use the simplest analogy.” Lin Xi thought for a bit, and then he said, “You can interpret my Divine General ability as the wind produced by a butterfly’s wings… We could only use this wind before, but now, Principal Zhang has told me that we can devour this butterfly.”

This comparison was extremely crude, almost seeming a bit inappropriate, but compared to Lin Xi’s previous gradual explanation, this type of analogy instead allowed Nangong Weiyang, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue to completely understand.

“Without the butterfly, the butterfly’s wings can never stir up any more wind.” Gu Xinyin’s expression immediately became grave. “You are saying that you are going to convert all of the Divine General’s power into something you can use?”

Everything that happened in Green Luan Palace remains already made Qin Xiyue feel shock, shock to the point where she already became a bit numb. But when she heard Gu Xinyin’s words, she was once again shocked to the point where she was completely speechless.

Even Nangong Weiyang was shocked.

Perhaps any cultivator who heard these words might become shocked.

After all, ‘Divine General’ changed this world. For all cultivators in this world, the two words ‘Divine General’ possessed too many deeper meanings.

However, Lin Xi himself was instead extremely calm.

He looked at Gu XInyin, Nangong Weiyang, as well as the completely speechless Qin Xiyue, and then calmly said, “I never viewed myself as a savior. Moreover, not even a Divine General is truly unrivaled. Losing the Divine General ability will just make me a cultivator like everyone else. Moreover, if we have a power that is not inferior to the Immortal Devil Age, or perhaps even exceeds that era, a power that is enough to defeat Zhang Ping, it is completely worth it in my opinion.”

“If it was me, I might make the same choice.” Nangong Weiyang lowered her head. After thinking for less than a breath of time, she raised her head again to look at Lin Xi. She said slowly and seriously, “But based on my understanding, both you and principal Zhang are fundamentally different from other cultivators. Normal cultivators can only absorb the vital energy of the natural world around us, while you and Principal Zhang both have another chunk of vital energy you can absorb. It is just as if your body naturally formed a pill that contained powerful vital energy the moment you arrived in this world, something that wasn’t because of soul force cultivation.”

Lin Xi stared blankly for a moment, and then he nodded. “If it was the people of our world… the best way to understand this phenomenon is that an energy chunk or energy lump was inserted into our bodies… Meanwhile, a pill medicine might indeed be the easiest way for the people of this world to understand what happened.”

Nangong Weiyang’s brows furrowed slightly. “Since Principal Zhang left behind those words, then that means that he has indeed already sensed that the power within you guys could be devoured. Then what you need to do now is to try to devour and merge with this power. However, we are certain that Principal Zhang never truly tried this before he left. That is why merging with this power might carry some risks.”

After a slight pause, Nangong Weiyang’s brows furrowed even deeper. She gave Lin Xi a look, and then gave that icy blue whirlpool a deep look. “Just like what you said before, this vital energy is too powerful. You’ve already explained a lot to us, so you definitely have a better concept of just how powerful this power is than the rest of us. I feel that you definitely need to at least consider if your body can handle this amount of power.”

“I know what you are trying to say.” Lin Xi nodded, and then he quietly said, “But as someone who lives in this world, there are some things that have to be done.”

…

In Lin Xi’s perception, the green ‘roulette’ was dazzling and brilliant.

Since Principal Zhang left behind this pointer, then there should definitely be a way to merge with this ‘roulette’.

Lin Xi decided to give up on his Divine General ability, to give up on his past world, to truly become an ordinary person of this world. Thus, what he needed to do was only to figure out this method.

After a long time passed, as he continued to study this ‘roulette’, it became more and more clear.

He even entered a strange type of meditative stance. He seemed to have entered the depths of his own consciousness. It was as if he was standing in the sea, calmly gazing at a green moon.

How was someone gazing at a moon from the ground supposed to devour this moon in the sky?

This seemed like something completely impossible.

In Green Luan Palace’s remains, both time and space seemed to have frozen. It was as if no time passed at all.

However, the amount of food they had on them continuously dwindled.

“It shouldn’t be this hard.” When Nangong Weiyang informed Lin Xi that they needed to return to the warm lake to replenish some food, only then did he realize that quite a few days had already passed. The amount of food they had was only enough for them to return to the warm lake.

He began to realize that he might have been mistaken from the start.

When his eyes landed on that metal trunk again, on Principal Zhang’s cowhide scroll covered in words, he suddenly realized what was going on.

“With loss, there will definitely be gain.”

He quietly repeated this to himself, and then shook his head. He said to Nangong Weiyang, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue, “Let’s go. Let’s return to the warm lake.”

He didn’t say too much, but Nangong Weiyang, Gu Xinyin and Qin Xiyue sensed something different from his tone. As such, the three of them all became nervous. They looked into his eyes with shock, and then all three of them saw a conclusive answer.

…

White snow scattered down from the sky.

The warm lake’s lakewater and the rocks inside the lake were all extremely warm.

“With loss, there will definitely be gain… Turns out from the very start, he not only told me what I can do, he even told me the method.” Lin Xi was sitting on the warm rock, looking at the milky white water. He calmly said, “Most people wish to possess and own things, but compared to this world, we are all nothing, all just that insignificant. That is why from a certain perspective, most people are too arrogant. The higher one’s cultivation, the great one’s power, the easier it is for them to become arrogant. His words were also a final reminder for me.”

Nangong Weiyang, Qin XIyue and Gu Xinyin pondered over Lin Xi’s words. However, Lin Xi himself instead closed his eyes.

In his world of perception, when he faced that green moon, he no longer tried to ‘devour’ that green moon. Instead, he sent his consciousness towards the green moon, as if he was allowing the other party to devour him.

This almost seemed like self destruction.

However, this was still his world of perception after all. Under his suicidal movement, his sea of consciousness naturally began to surge intensely. His entire consciousness seemed like it was going to completely collapse, completely disappear.

However, this green moon… this power that had accompanied him in this world for so long, was also closely linked with his consciousness. That was why this moon also began to tremble, and then it began to collapse.

His mind suffered serious injuries, his head feeling like it was going to split open. He felt unimaginable pain, pain that was too difficult to bear.

However, in this moment, waves of powerful natural vital energy instead entered from the surrounding world. It entered his body and surged about within him.

The instant this tremendous power poured into Lin Xi’s body, the vital energy that gushed out from Lin Xi’s body already pushed aside Nangong Weiyang, Gu Xinyin and Qin XIyue.

The three of them couldn’t understand the changes that were currently taking place in Lin Xi’s world of perception, but they could perceive that the waves of powerful natural energy didn’t come from within Lin Xi, but were rather transferred between heaven and earth, coming from Green Luan Palace’s ruins!
