165: Chapter 165: Link of Life
“...!”
Entering the Earth Demon Territory, a completely materialized illusory realm, again, Fang Yuan felt the monster factor in the surrounding air even more clearly.
His increase in strength allowed Fang Yuan to barely observe the existence of the monster factor; everywhere his eyes could see, specks of greyish monster factor filled his entire vision.
Like an ocean of viruses, Fang Yuan, immersed in it, felt his scalp tingle, and his body experienced waves of discomfort due to psychological suggestion.
In reality, Fang Yuan’s strength was already enough to barely resist the erosion of the monster factor.
An ordinary Gold Rank could only last about ten days, but he could now last a month without worrying about the danger of monster syndrome.
As the monster factor drifted in the air, Fang Yuan could even see some of it directly penetrating his Physical Body and disappearing upon contact.
He turned to look at Gu Yue; her situation was even more terrifying. After her entire Physical Body came into contact with the monster factor, a large portion of those terrifying entities easily entered her Physical Body.
“What is it? Is something wrong?”
Seeing her look at him like that, Gu Yue somewhat confusedly watched Fang Yuan, whose eyes were unfocused. She didn’t know why he was looking at her this way.
“Nothing, I can just see the monster factor…”
Fang Yuan truthfully explained what he was doing.
However, his words instantly startled Gu Yue, and goosebumps immediately appeared on her skin.
Feeling uncomfortable all over, she swayed from side to side, nervously looking at the greyish surroundings. No matter how she looked, she couldn’t see anything amiss, except for the mist that obscured her vision.
“Fang Yuan, can I discuss something with you…?”
Unable to see the monster factor, Gu Yue suddenly approached Fang Yuan, speaking to him with a strange expression.
Fang Yuan had never seen such an expression on her. Looking at this beautiful woman with a fawning, ingratiating face, he silently took a few steps back, guarding himself cautiously.
“..., hehe, you don’t have to be like this, it’s not a big deal, it’s just ~ I just want you to experiment with the ability of the Chain of Life with me. Fang Yuan, can you try to share one of the abilities from your True Spirit Talent with me?”
“You also know the effect of the Chain of Life, the last ability of my True Spirit Talent. Currently, as long as I use my Talent ability, I can possess seventy percent of your Physical Body strength. The Chain of Life can not only replicate Physical Body strength but also Talent abilities, so can you…?”
Gu Yue seemed not to notice Fang Yuan’s resistance, taking a few steps forward to keep up with him as he retreated.
Soon, less than ten centimeters remained between them, almost touching.
“Stop…!”
“Continue.”
Fang Yuan, still retreating, raised his right hand and placed it on the girl’s forehead, preventing her from getting closer. After creating some distance, he allowed her to continue speaking.
“Oh, as long as I use the Chain of Life to connect with you, and then you demonstrate your Talent ability, I might be able to possess the same Talent as you.”
Blocked, Gu Yue stated her idea, then looked at him with immense anticipation.
The reason she suddenly decided to act with Fang Yuan this time was that she wanted to try out her Talent ability.
After expressing her thoughts, Gu Yue’s heart pounded wildly while waiting for the result; she was filled with extreme nervousness and anticipation.
Her nervous and expectant gaze was fixed on the young man in front of her. This request was somewhat absurd, and she didn’t hold too much hope for it.
Her pitiful appearance truly made it hard for anyone to refuse.
“..., fine, but I can only demonstrate one ability for you at most~.”
Fang Yuan, looked at by her, thought for a moment and finally agreed to let Gu Yue replicate his ability. Not only was she very kind to him,
but he also wanted to know if this so-called Chain of Life could truly replicate his abilities.
“Yay~, thank you!”
Hearing what she wanted, Gu Yue jumped up, her excitement uncontainable.
The happy girl took a step forward with full anticipation, greatly reducing the distance that had been created.
At her signal, Fang Yuan placed his already raised right hand between them. Then, wisps of light emanated, and an energy orb containing thousands of attribute energies appeared.
“What is this…?”
The attribute energy orb was brilliant and colorful, with thousands of different colored bands flowing within it. Looking at this dazzling energy orb, Gu Yue was already captivated.
“Myriad Laws Return to Origin, one of my Talent abilities. Currently, I can control 1,111 types of attribute attacks. I can use a single attribute or all attributes simultaneously…”
When the ability of Myriad Laws Return to Origin was explained, Gu Yue’s pupils widened abruptly. This ability was too abnormal.
Before this, although she had seen Fang Yuan use multiple attribute attacks, the reserved Fang Yuan had only used a few attributes, even in front of them.
“Then I’ll start now, okay?”
The power of Myriad Laws Return to Origin deeply attracted Gu Yue; she was already impatient, but to maintain her composure, she suppressed the desire in her heart and once again sought Fang Yuan’s consent.
When Fang Yuan nodded in agreement, she immediately raised both hands, placing her slender, fair fingers, like scallion roots, on either side of the energy orb.
With her posture set, a milky-white, translucent glow appeared, enveloping their hands together.
“…”
Soon, Fang Yuan felt an unknown force sweep over him, which made him instinctively want to resist it.
However, remembering that he had promised Gu Yue, he had no choice but to suppress the thought of resistance and allow this translucent milky-white glow to touch him.
During this time, the two stood motionless; the former, Fang Yuan, could only remain still to avoid any problems, while the latter was using her own ability… “Phew~, that’s it.”
A minute later, Gu Yue finally lowered her hands, revealing a slight smile. Clearly, she had succeeded.
Hearing her speak, Fang Yuan dispelled the energy orb in his hand, then stared directly at her, wanting to see if she could indeed use Myriad Laws Return to Origin.
Just now, apart from an unknown energy touching him, he hadn’t felt any discomfort or discovered any problems.
“Hehe, look, isn’t this Myriad Laws Return to Origin…?”
Gu Yue, who had replicated Myriad Laws Return to Origin, raised her right hand just like Fang Yuan had earlier. Subsequently, a colorful energy orb appeared, which was clearly a large amount of different attribute energies.
Having cast Myriad Laws Return to Origin, Gu Yue was very happy; her strength had advanced another step.
Under the effect of the Chain of Life, Gu Yue’s current strength was equivalent to seventy percent of Fang Yuan’s normal state, roughly 1.3 billion points….
