He looked at the gray bead in his hand with surprise and recognized it at a glance. It should be a mental power core.
She was just feeling strange when she suddenly heard Babao say, "Huh? Isn't this a soul crystal?"
Lan Ke immediately asked: "Soul crystal? What is that?"
"Soul crystal is the crystallization of soul power, right? Or it can be said to be mental power. Gu Yuluo must have been invaded by the death energy of the underworld, and turned into a zombie after death, with her soul trapped in the corpse."
"Isn't that the same as zombies?"
"Of course they are different. Zombies will rot, but these zombies won't. Their souls are trapped in their bodies. Not only are they sentient, but they will also turn into killing machines under the influence of death energy.
I'm lucky this time. It just transformed into a corpse and is still in a weak stage. Otherwise, if I let it absorb more dead energy and stay here for a year or two, its strength will improve by leaps and bounds, and even Yan Nantian won't be able to kill it easily."
Lan Ke was shocked. According to Babao, this living corpse was really different from a zombie. Most zombies in novels were just rotten and wanted to eat flesh and blood. They could upgrade after eating a lot of people.
But if you really compare them, zombies are definitely much more dangerous than zombies!
Lan Ke couldn't help but think, if she hadn't traveled through time, would Gu Yuruo have successfully opened the seal? When the death energy from the underworld invaded, how many such zombies would appear in this plane
If she hadn't come, Jun Tianheng would still be a useless person who couldn't practice. Once the zombies appeared in large numbers, wouldn't he be in great danger without the ability to protect himself
Even if Yan Nantian is determined to protect him, how long can he do so
Babao said that if zombies absorb more death energy, their strength will increase by leaps and bounds!
Once the entrance to the underworld is opened, death energy will flow in endlessly. How terrifying will the zombies be
The more Lan Ke thought about it, the more scared she became. She suddenly understood why the system had assigned her such a mandatory task.
If she didn't come to stop Gu Yuluo and reinforce the seal, this plane would probably be finished. Even if it didn't get destroyed immediately, it would turn into a hell on earth.
Thinking of this, Lan Ke couldn't help but look at Jun Tianheng.
At this time, he was young, handsome, gentle and beautiful. Not only was he not as cold as he became later, but he was often shy and very cute.
Perhaps he noticed her gaze, Jun Tianheng suddenly raised his eyes and looked at her. When their eyes met, Lan Ke's heart suddenly ached.
She couldn't imagine what Jun Tianheng looked like when he died. Just thinking about the fact that he had been murdered by someone made her feel extremely sad.
Fortunately, it's all over now.
"Ake, are you okay?" Jun Tianheng looked at Lan Ke worriedly and instinctively wanted to pounce on her, but his wrist was tightly grasped by Yan Nantian.
Just now, Yan Nantian collapsed due to exhaustion after successfully reinforcing the seal. He was worried that something had happened to Yan Nantian, so he hurried to check on his body. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the dead Gu Yurou suddenly stood up!
Fortunately, Lan Ke acted quickly, otherwise who knows what would have happened.
The way Gu Yuruo continued to struggle after his head and body were separated was too unbelievable, so Yan Nantian held him tightly and used his last bit of strength to move him away.
He was extremely worried at the time, fearing that something might happen to Lan Ke. Fortunately, Lan Ke was more powerful than he thought, and she quickly dealt with Gu Yurou and burned her to ashes.
Jun Tianheng felt uncomfortable when he recalled the scene just now. He was a man, Lan Ke's husband, but when she was in danger, he not only failed to help her, but also ran away. This was not what a real man should do!
Although he was forcibly taken away by Yan Nantian, Jun Tianheng was still very dissatisfied with himself.
After all, he is not strong enough now.
If he was strong enough, why would Lan Ke need to help? He could solve everything for Lan Ke.
If he was strong enough, why would Yan Nantian force him to retreat because he was worried about him
If he had the strength, how could Yan Nantian control him even if he wanted to
He knew Yan Nantian was worried about him, but he couldn't accept it in his heart. He was a man, a husband, how could he choose to flee when in danger and leave his wife to face it alone
Jun Tianheng sighed secretly and said to Yan Nantian: "Grandpa, let go, it's okay now."
Yan Nantian did not let go. He was afraid of Lan Ke just now, and now that his energy was exhausted, he was even more afraid of Lan Ke.
Although Lan Ke is Jun Tianheng's wife, she is still a stranger to him. How can he feel at ease
He has lived for more than two hundred years, and caution has long been engraved in his bones.
Lan Ke noticed Yan Nantian's vigilance, but she didn't care. Yan Nantian was wary of her, so why wasn't she wary of him too
This plane was too unfamiliar to her, and she couldn't trust anyone here, including Jun Tianheng.
Yan Nantian's reaction was just right for her.
"Tianheng, my mission has been completed." Lan Ke's tone was very calm, as if she was just talking about an ordinary little thing. "I've handed those things to you, take care."
"Ake!" Jun Tianheng was instantly anxious. He ignored Yan Nantian's objection, forcefully shook his hand away, and quickly ran to Lan Ke, grabbing her tightly. "You want to leave now? Isn't this too soon? You've just arrived, and I haven't done my best to be a good host. I..."
"Tianheng, you have your own path to follow, and I also have something important to do. Don't you want to join the sect? Go to the forbidden area to practice in seclusion after you return. Time is running out. Remember, no matter what happens, you must protect yourself and the people you care about."
She always remembered the cold and lonely look of Jun Tianheng in the future. He once said that everyone he cared about was dead.
She hoped that this time would be different.
Although she liked the cold Jun Tianheng, if possible, she hoped that he could live a smooth and happy life and not experience the pain of losing his relatives and friends again.
Jun Tianheng looked at Lan Ke with burning eyes and wanted to ask her to stay, but seeing the determination in her eyes, he couldn't say the words.
He realized very clearly that Lan Ke was really leaving.
He didn't know what to say, and after a long silence, he mustered up the courage to ask, "Will I be able to see you again in the future?"
"Of course." Lan Ke smiled, "It's not suitable to stay here for long. You'd better leave as soon as possible. After I leave, feed him the Hui Yuan Dan, and his Yuan power will recover as soon as possible."
Lan Ke didn't have any special feelings for Yan Nantian, but she had to consider Jun Tianheng. Only by letting him recover his vitality as soon as possible would Jun Tianheng be safer.
As for letting him take the medicine after she left, it was purely out of her selfishness.
She was worried about Yan Nantian, so she naturally had to be on guard against him.
Pulling Jun Tianheng's hand away, Lan Ke quickly turned around and left: "Babao, go back immediately!"
Jun Tianheng stood there stiffly, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. He instinctively chased in the direction Lan Ke left, but he only had time to see Lan Ke being sucked into a black vortex and completely disappearing.
On the other side, Lan Ke fell into a familiar embrace as soon as she returned to the spaceship.
