383: Chapter 383 Treatment

Hearing Cao Yang's words, Jinwu Lanxin gave a playful huff and muttered, "Hmph, boring!" However, despite what she said, she quickly put aside her playful mood and began to adjust her state.

She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, as if expelling all distracting thoughts from her mind.

Immediately after, she sat cross-legged with her hands resting naturally on her knees, her eyes slightly closed as she entered a state of meditation.

Clearly, Jinwu Lanxin had realized by now that Cao Yang's previous behavior was just him teasing her.

Although a trace of displeasure still lingered on her face, deep down, her heart felt as if it had been brushed by a spring breeze, rippling with sweetness.

In reality, Jinwu Lanxin knew very well that given Cao Yang's strength, if he had just clenched his fist slightly, she would never have been able to snatch that chaos tribulation ring from his hand.

Moreover, with Cao Yang's Chaos Supreme Realm true spirit, how could he not know whether there was anyone else behind him?

Just after Jinwu Lanxin was ready, Cao Yang unhesitatingly extended his right hand and tapped his index finger gently, landing accurately on Jinwu Lanxin's forehead.

This contact caused Jinwu Lanxin to let out a soft "Mm."

Clearly, she had not expected Cao Yang to touch her directly with his hand. This sudden action surprised her, but she did not ask any questions, quickly adjusting her state, calming her mind, and preparing for what was to come.

Seeing this, Cao Yang quickly explained, "I will treat your injuries first, and then upgrade your Physique. The process might be a bit uncomfortable, so please bear with it."

Jinwu Lanxin nodded slightly and replied softly, "Mm."

After receiving Jinwu Lanxin's response, Cao Yang took a deep breath and began to mobilize the powerful Eternal Life Power within him.

This energy was like a refreshing spring, flowing endlessly from Cao Yang's hand, then along his fingertip, and slowly into Jinwu Lanxin's body.

As the Eternal Life Power was injected, Jinwu Lanxin's Chaos body began to undergo wondrous changes.

The internal injuries previously caused by the shock of Cao Yang's aura were recovering at a visible speed, nourished by this powerful energy.

However, when Cao Yang carefully examined Jinwu Lanxin's injuries, he could not help but be greatly shocked. He had originally thought that Jinwu Lanxin's injuries were not serious, but the reality far exceeded his imagination.

This seemingly strong girl had been enduring intense pain all this time, yet she could still pretend that she had only suffered light injuries. Her Chaos body had suffered heavy internal damage, and not only that, but her true spirit had also been injured to a certain extent.

Cao Yang could not help but sigh; this girl's endurance was truly astonishing! If not for an accompanying Chaos Supreme Treasure that had protected Jinwu Lanxin's true spirit in time, her true spirit would likely have suffered severe damage.

However, Cao Yang thought about it and understood the reason.

After all, his current strength had reached the Chaos Supreme Realm, and it was that extremely powerful type of Chaos Supreme Realm, with strength comparable to the Chaos Emperor Realm.

Although Jinwu Lanxin was from the powerful Golden Crow Clan, possessed excellent Aptitude and talent, and had considerable strength, her Realm had only just broken through to the High-level Chaos Domain Lord Realm, and her strength was at most only at the Low-level Chaos Supreme Realm.

With such a huge disparity in strength, how could Jinwu Lanxin possibly withstand even a trace of Cao Yang's Chaos Emperor Realm aura? It was like an ant facing a mountain; no matter how hard it tried, it could not shake the mountain in the slightest.

However, this was not intentional on Cao Yang's part.

Although this was not only his Inner Universe but also his Invincible Domain, logically speaking, he should not have experienced this situation where he could not control his own aura.

After all, within his Domain, he was the absolute Dominator, and everything should be under his control.

However, the situation this time was somewhat special.

Cao Yang's aura was emitted by himself, and it happened during his sudden, unexpected Realm Breakthrough. In this situation, his true spirit was focused on guarding against external threats, completely not expecting to break through at this time, and even less expecting to emit such a powerful aura because of it.

Normally, if an outsider were to intrude into his impeccable Domain, Cao Yang would definitely detect the anomaly in an instant and firmly control the other party with lightning speed, preventing them from even letting out a trace of aura.

However, this situation was vastly different; the source of this aura was actually himself, and it erupted suddenly at a moment when he was completely unprepared.

Precisely because of this, Cao Yang completely lost control of his own aura in the very first instant.

After all, his true spirit had always focused its attention on guarding against external enemies, and he had never expected the need to maintain high vigilance toward himself.

Furthermore, this was his Chaos Domain; he was full of confidence in his own strength, believing that he was invincible within this Domain, so his true spirit's vigilance naturally relaxed.

In addition, although Cao Yang's true spirit was already quite powerful, compared to that unfathomable Invincible Domain and the various mysterious existences within the Heavenly Emperor Hall, it still seemed insignificant.

Even in the Invincible Domain, he could easily defeat any enemy, but his true spirit's control ability and level of mastery were far from perfect, unable to achieve absolute precision and perfection.

For example, if a Transcendence Realm powerhouse were to suddenly launch a sneak attack on Cao Yang right now, Cao Yang would likely be easily killed by the opponent before he could even make any reaction.

This was because Cao Yang's true spirit was simply too weak compared to Transcendence Realm beings, to the point that he could not detect the opponent's presence in time, let alone activate the Invincible Domain to counterattack and kill the enemy in the first instance.

Of course, if Cao Yang had known in advance that a Transcendence Realm powerhouse would come to sneak attack him, then he might have been able to make full preparations in advance.

Or, if Cao Yang's Invincible Domain were wide enough to cover an area as large as a Divine Realm, then he would also have the opportunity to instantly counter-kill a Transcendence Realm being.

However, at present, the scale of Cao Yang's Invincible Domain was not very large; its coverage area could only be equivalent to one Divine Realm.

Although compared to when he was at the God-Emperor Realm, this range was already quite vast, for Cao Yang, whose strength had now reached the Chaos Emperor Realm, such a range still seemed insignificant.

After all, with Cao Yang's current ability, he only needed to glance around with his naked eyes to easily see further beyond the Invincible Domain.

Let alone Transcendence Realm beings; those were powerhouses who had jumped out of the peak of the Chaos World, and their power was simply beyond imagination.

Such a vast area as the Divine Realm, for them, might just be a small step away, and that too, a careless, casual step.

However, Cao Yang possessed the Heaven-Defying ability of the Invincible Domain. This meant that even if a Transcendence Realm being wanted to sneak attack him, they would absolutely not be able to succeed. Not only that, even if someone more powerful than a Transcendence Realm being came to sneak attack, they would still not be able to put Cao Yang to death.

The reason was simple; Cao Yang had another even more powerful trump card—the System Loli.

As long as any existence that could not be resisted even with the Invincible Domain approached Cao Yang, the System Loli would detect it in the first instance and quickly inform Cao Yang.

In this way, Cao Yang could use the power of the Invincible Domain to easily kill any powerful enemy.

The Eternal Life Power that Cao Yang was now using to treat Jinwu Lanxin actually originated from a special Eternal Life Physique he had obtained when he killed a Child of Fortune in the past.

Although the Rank of this Eternal Life Physique was relatively low at the time, not even comparable to a Dao in the Great Universe, the potential it contained far exceeded the Dao.

One must know that the lifespan of an Eternal Life Physique was equivalent to the Great Universe, while the lifespan of the Dao was much shorter.

Different Daos had different lifespans, and even for the most powerful Daos, their maximum lifespan was only one-hundredth of the Great Universe's lifespan.

Precisely because of this, there existed the so-called "Day of Dao Fall" in the Great Universe, when many powerhouses would suffer misfortune, and countless living beings would also perish on this day.

However, ordinary people usually had no chance to witness the arrival of the Day of Dao Fall; only powerhouses above the Source Venerable Realm had a glimmer of hope to witness this historic moment.

In the current world, the Eternal Life Power that Cao Yang possessed had reached the chaos level, post-natal Supreme Treasure level. The strength of this power made his lifespan far exceed the scope of the Great Universe, and as for exactly how long it was, even Cao Yang himself had no way of knowing.

Precisely because of this, although Jinwu Lanxin's injuries were exceptionally serious, under the treatment of Cao Yang, a Chaos Emperor Realm powerhouse, with his special and powerful Eternal Life Power, Jinwu Lanxin's injuries had completely healed in less than a month.

During this period, Tian Qing had also returned once. Cao Yang told her the whole story in detail through sound transmission, and after Tian Qing understood the situation, she hurriedly left again.

After a long and arduous treatment process, Cao Yang finally succeeded in completely healing Jinwu Lanxin's injuries. However, this process was by no means easy for him; it not only consumed a large amount of Eternal Life Power but also expended quite a bit of the precious Chaos Power within his body.

"Whew..." Cao Yang slowly released the finger he had been pointing at Jinwu Lanxin's forehead, as if all the strength in his body had been drained at this moment. He exhaled softly and said in a low, apologetic voice, "I didn't expect you to be so seriously injured. I'm sorry."

Jinwu Lanxin's eyes were tightly closed, as if she were immersed in a deep dream. However, when Cao Yang's voice reached her ears, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her tightly closed eyes.

At this moment, Jinwu Lanxin's forehead and face were covered with tiny beads of sweat, which were particularly noticeable on her pale skin. Her lips were also somewhat chapped; clearly, she had endured tremendous pain during the treatment process.

However, despite the tremendous pain her body was enduring, Jinwu Lanxin still tried hard to squeeze out a smile. Although the smile appeared somewhat pale and weak, it contained endless gratitude and warmth.

She shook her head gently and replied in a slightly hoarse voice, "No, I should be the one thanking you for treating my injuries; you really don't need to apologize for this."

Seeing this, Cao Yang's heart softened. He had originally been worried that Jinwu Lanxin would hold a grudge against him because of what happened before, but he didn't expect her to be so magnanimous.

Therefore, he also smiled slightly and replied, "Since you say so, I won't say more. However, your physical condition is indeed not very good right now; do you want to rest for a few days before proceeding with the Physique upgrade? Or, I can help you upgrade your Physique to the Hongmeng Golden Crow Bloodline right now; what do you think?"

Upon hearing this, a flash of surprise crossed Jinwu Lanxin's eyes. She quickly said, "Brother Cao, I want to proceed with the Physique upgrade right now; I can't wait! However, I heard that when the Physique is upgraded to the Hongmeng level, it might trigger many powerful phenomena. I wonder if you, Brother Cao, have any way to conceal these phenomena?"

After listening, Cao Yang's lips curled slightly upward, revealing a confident smile. He said, "You can rest assured about that; I naturally have a way. However, you just called me Brother Cao, which makes me very happy. It seems my twenty-plus days of treatment were not in vain!"

Cao Yang was truly happy this time, because the System Loli had just announced it!

"Beep, congratulations, Master. Jinwu Lanxin's favorability toward the Master has increased by five points, reaching eighty-five points. Please keep up the good work, Master."

"Giggle, I will call you Brother Cao from now on."

Jinwu Lanxin covered her mouth and laughed, saying with a blush.

"Haha, that is excellent, exactly to my liking. Xin'er, get ready; I will help you upgrade your Physique now."

Cao Yang laughed heartily, very happy. He was wondering if Jinwu Lanxin's Physique upgrade would also lead to a Breakthrough in her Realm like his did, though the possibility was not very high.

"Alright, come on!"

Jinwu Lanxin nodded and once again calmed her mind and sat cross-legged.

Seeing this scene, Cao Yang no longer hesitated in the slightest. He decisively ordered the System Loli in his mind, "System, immediately upgrade Jinwu Lanxin's Physique to the Hongmeng level!"

"Beep, instruction received, Master. 800 hongmeng sign-in counts have been deducted. Jinwu Lanxin's Physique is currently being upgraded..." The System Loli's voice rang clearly in Cao Yang's mind.

Accompanied by the System's prompt, Jinwu Lanxin's body suddenly erupted with intense light; the dazzling white light was like daylight, illuminating the entire space.

At the same time, outside Cao Yang's Heavenly Emperor Hall, an astonishing scene was unfolding.

In the Chaos, the phantom of a Hongmeng Divine Dragon rose into the air, its huge body circling and flying in the Void Realm, emitting unparalleled majesty.

And beside it, there was also a phantom of a Chaos Phoenix, its feathers shimmering with five-colored light, dancing gracefully, beautiful and magnificent.

Not only that, but there were also phantoms of Hongmeng Golden Crows, phantoms of Hongmeng Qilins, and so on. Numerous powerful phantoms of Hongmeng Divine Beasts appeared one by one, roaring and flying in the Chaos, displaying endless power and majesty.

These Hongmeng Divine Beast phantoms were completely different from the Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan that Cao Yang had seen before; their aura was more powerful, and their forms were more peculiar.

Cao Yang could not help but marvel; it was his first time seeing such unique and powerful Dragon Clan and Phoenix Clan.
