Twelve years passed in the blink of an eye. It took Zhang Tie a full day to slowly accept and adapt to this news. When this news brought a huge impact to Zhang Tie, the only thing that made Zhang Tie feel a little bit... What is comforting is that during this period, all the people he cares about have been properly accommodated.
I stayed with my parents. When I left Huaiyuantang, I solemnly handed over some original liquid of Yuan Neng Aura Yeast that can continuously reproduce to my brother. With those things, even if I am not in Jinwu Castle, I will Brother should also be able to maintain the supply of full-effect pharmaceuticals, and the development of Jinwu Trading Company should be sufficiently guaranteed.
The girls from the Divine Grace Brotherhood and the Rose Society had already left Black Flame City before, and they all had the support and capital to live a good life. Teacher Dinah and Linda themselves have asked Brother to take good care of them, so nothing will happen to them. Even in the ice and snow wasteland, I had made proper arrangements for everything before leaving, and did everything I could. Even without me, everything there could continue to operate normally.
These thoughts made Zhang Tie feel a little better, but Zhang Tie knew that these twelve years were enough for a lot of things to happen and a lot of people and things to change.
My parents don’t know how much they miss me.
I don’t know if my friends on Qianlong Island are doing well.
Senior Sister Lan Yunxi didn't know what was going on.
How are the girls from the Divine Grace Brotherhood and Rose Society doing now
Teacher Dinah, how is Linda now
Also, does he still have the same authority in the ice and snow wasteland as before
the most important is. What is going on outside now? Has the holy war between humans and demons begun
Zhang Tie knew that in these twelve years. I must have missed a lot of things. Perhaps my only gain was that I survived a confrontation with a level 14 demon.
But the price of survival is too high!
Looking carefully at his unfamiliar face in the mirror again and his eyes that were as dark as Abian's before, Zhang Tie let out a roar and punched him, shattering the entire mirror into pieces. This is already the seventh mirror Zhang Tie has broken this day. Perhaps to a pure demon, such a face might be full of beauty, just like that pervert Abian. But for Zhang Tie, as soon as he saw this insect-like face and his own monster-like claws, Zhang Tie had the urge to destroy everything.
a lot of things. You only know how precious it is when you lose it. For example, you don’t think much of the human body when you have it. But after you lose it, you realize how valuable that pure human body is, with every line full of beauty. The myth says that God creates it according to his own wishes. The image creates the human body, which illustrates the perfection of the human body.
For the second form that this body was forced to have, and for the genes that were assimilated and transformed by chance when killing Abian. Zhang Tie felt as if his entire being was contaminated and infected with a disgusting and terrifying virus.
Zhang Tie has no idea what to do with his current state of mind and body. How would he face the people he was familiar with in the future? He didn't even know if continuing to have this body would drive him crazy one day.
What Zhang Tie couldn't accept even more was that Heller told him that some of the genetic characteristics of the second form in his body would continue to be passed on to his next generation if he wanted to have children in the future.
This is the horror of the Shadow Demon gene. For some people, such a blood descendant is the highest honor. For example, the Three-Eyed Society. It is said that the human race controls the secret families of the Three-Eyed Society. Many of them are Shadow Demons and The mixed-blood descendants of the human race, those people determine the purity of their bloodline and their status based on how much of the Shadow Demon gene they can inherit. For this reason, they even only intermarry with each other among the mixed-blood descendants who also have the Shadow Demon gene. It is to keep the demon genes in oneself from being diluted. In Zhang Tie's situation, many people would be overjoyed when it comes to the mixed descendants of shadow demons and humans in the Three-Eyed Society, but for Zhang Tie, he is completely unacceptable.
Because Zhang Tie feels that he is just an ordinary person, and what his parents have given him is the best. There are many things that ordinary people cannot accept, and he cannot accept them either. He does not want to let himself become a human being, a demon not a demon. A monster, and he didn't want his future descendants to become such a person. If that happened, Zhang Tie knew that his entire family would be destroyed. Not only his family, but his parents would never accept this reality.
So, the next day, Zhang Tie found Heller with red eyes.
"I know that you must have a way. There must be a way for the Manjushahua tree and this dimension. I want to restore my previous body. No matter what the price is, I must restore my previous body and put those demons away. I want the human race’s junk genes to be removed from my body. I want the human race’s body, no matter what the price, I am willing to do so!”
Heller looked at Zhang Tie. Over the past day, he had felt Zhang Tie's mentality and reaction to the second form of his body. Zhang Tie's reaction was huge, which was a bit beyond Heller's expectation. outside.
"Originally, I thought that as long as you didn't reveal the second form of this body, there would be no problem. The second form of this body has many of the abilities of the Shadow Demon. It can fly, change its appearance, and has terrifying and... With his strong vitality and ability to resist blows, he can pass through the demon clan without any hindrance and may play a huge role at critical moments. I didn't expect you to be completely unacceptable. Don't you think about it anymore? In my opinion, the so-called The body is actually similar to clothes with different structures.”
Zhang Tie looked at Heller seriously, "Heller, maybe your life and birth are naturally different from mine, so you don't understand how important a person's body is to him. This body of mine is not only mine, but also It belongs to my parents, my future wife and children. It is closely related to my family. Maybe you are right, but for me, this is what I don’t want. I just want to be a human being. , a person who can make everyone in the family happy and proud. Instead of a powerful but inhuman monster who makes everyone around him afraid, with such a body. I don’t know if I will You’ll go crazy!”
Heller was silent for a while, and then told Zhang Tie, "To restore your body to its previous state of a pure human body, and to completely reverse the influence of the shadow demon on your body's DNA, the price will be very high. Even the Black Iron Castle and the Manjushahua Treasure Tree are not omnipotent. There are many established rules and regulations followed here, and for many things, you have to pay a sufficient price to get results!"
"What price do I have to pay?" Zhang Tie asked.
"The price you have to pay is from now on. You will no longer be able to get the Seven Power Fruit from the Manjushahua tree!"
Zhang Tie was silent for a while. To a large extent, he was able to be where he is today because of the Seven Power Fruits that were changing his destiny. The Seven Power Fruit was the most powerful fruit the little tree could offer him. Without the Seven Power Fruit, Zhang Tie knew that a big advantage he had would no longer exist. It was hard to say whether his strength would be able to improve as much as it does now.
In the process of Abian evolving into the second form of Shadow Demon, most of the powerful life source power brought to him by the Seven Power Fruits he had eaten before has been consumed. The huge energy in Abian's body, After completing the assimilation and transformation of his body from the human body to the second form, he consumed 7788, leaving only a little energy. He also ignited the remaining bright points on his spine, so he was at this moment. Already a ninth-level warrior.
But my overall combat power at this moment, if not counting the body of the second form of the demon with powerful abilities, has actually dropped a bit compared to when I first arrived in Black Flame City. The reason is that within my body The energy of the Seven Power Fruits eaten before was consumed too much, and the strength of the whole person was no longer so abnormal. The increased potential of the thirteen bright points on the spine could not offset the loss of combat power.
If I could know how to ignite and cultivate the bright points in my body after level nine, the excess energy in Abian's body might be able to ignite more bright points in his body at once. Unfortunately, who can imagine what will happen later? Something like that will happen.
But at this moment, Heller told himself that if he wanted to obtain a pure human body, the price he had to pay was that he would never be able to obtain the powerful Seven Power Fruit.
What kind of choice can make parents feel happy and proud? Whenever faced with things that are difficult to choose, Zhang Tie only needs to ask himself this question, and he will quickly get the answer. This question is the compass for his life choices.
Zhang Tie hesitated for a moment, but then he raised his head firmly and said, "I am willing to pay this price. Even if I can never obtain the Seven Power Fruit in the future, I will keep my human body pure. The second form will make me lose a lot of things I cherish. Nothing in this world can replace those things. Although the Seven Power Fruit can enhance my power to the greatest extent, the improvement of a person's power is not limited to the Seven Power If there is such a path, those who do not have the Seven Power Fruit can all embark on the path of becoming strong. Wherever they can go step by step, I believe I can too!"
After hearing what Zhang Tie said, Heller looked at Zhang Tie with appreciation and respect, "Then, Lord Lord, everything will be as you wish, please come with me!"
Heller brought Zhang Tie to the place where they planted the Flower of Life. The Flower of Life was like a huge water lily planted on the ground. Each of its green buds was as big as a large water tank. size.
The Flower of Life occupies an area of tens of square meters, forming a scene of its own in the Black Iron Castle.
"Does the Flower of Life still have such an ability?" Zhang Tie was surprised.
"It can make a pure seed of life bloom here, and naturally it can also restore the blooming life to be as pure as the seed here, but the price of the latter will be even greater!" Heller said, stroking it with his hand. The bud of a flower of life opened, "Lord Lord, please take off your clothes and lie down in it. It will take about two days for your pure human body to fully recover!"
Zhang Tie lay down among the buds of the Flower of Life without any hesitation...
…
As an aside, regarding the twelve years, in the world where Zhang Tie lives, as long as the light is lit, most people will live a long life and age slowly. This has been explained before, and the earth It's different. For some cultivators who can live hundreds of years, even if they are fifty or sixty years old, they are still in their prime. Zhang Tie and the people he cares about are not very old. What's his is still his, it's not his, it's never his, so why bother. (… )
