Chapter 139 Qi Luck Pillar

"Just arrived at the Great Wilderness Era?"

Qi Ba Jiu frowned slightly. "It hasn't been long. Why wake me?"

"Reporting to Lord Qi Ba Jiu, the Jibing Sect is facing a great calamity and urgently needs a pillar of luck to lend a hand. We believe you are that pillar of luck!"

Before Ni Dongmei finished speaking, Qi Ba Jiu directly and decisively said, "Lies!"

Ni Dongmei immediately broke out in a cold sweat, her whole body trembling slightly.

"I, I wouldn't dare!"

"Then you are ignorant. A pillar of luck never manifests in someone from outside the era! One era is 500 years. I am from the previous era, not within the karmic cycle. How could I be a pillar of luck!"

Ni Dongmei was so frightened that she hastily wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Then, then it must be manifesting in the body you're possessing."

"A body with a Void Spirit Root… that is possible."

Qi Ba Jiu closed her eyes slightly, instantly comprehending all the mysteries of the body.

While they were discussing secrets, Fang Yue was chatting with Wei Ba.

"So, you really died just now? You even exited the game, and then your game watch suddenly notified you that your character had been resurrected and you should log in as soon as possible?"

"Yes!"

"This, this, this, I've never heard of such a thing! That's too strong! And they said you have a Void Spirit Root. What's the use of a Void Spirit Root?"

"I don't know. I can't control the body right now. It's like I'm in a game cutscene. Lord Qi Ba Jiu is controlling my body. But whatever she feels, I feel too, as if she controls my body, but all the other sensations are my own."

This was too, too miraculous.

Fang Yue immediately thought that if Lord Qi Ba Jiu cultivated some technique, then Wei Ba would immediately synchronize her perception and comprehension, and learn it.

This was taking off!

No wonder Ni Dongmei was already touting Wei Ba as a pillar of luck.

This wasn't Wei Ba latching onto Fang Yue's coattails, this was Fang Yue latching onto Wei Ba's coattails!

While Fang Yue and Wei Ba were having a private chat, and Ni Dongmei and Qi Ba Jiu were having a private chat,

The [Shadow Devouring Ghoul], which had been struggling for a while, finally broke free from the shackles of ice. With a loud roar, it charged towards the three.

"Noisy."

*Bang!*

On the way the [Shadow Devouring Ghoul] swooped down, its body shattered like an ice sculpture! When it crashed to the ground, it was a pile of ice shards, no longer any threat.

"System Notification: Congratulations to player [Night Dusk] for participating in the slaying of the ghoul [Shadow Devouring Ghoul]. Rewarded with +4 Force Control, +4 Force Dissipation, +10 days of lifespan."

Fang Yue: …

A long-lost assist!

Fang Yue couldn't help but rub his forehead. Don't be fooled by his seemingly fierce battle with the [Shadow Devouring Ghoul], as if he was going to fight it to the death.

But if you really converted it to the data panel, then Fang Yue, apart from a few instances of taking damage and dealing a pitiful 1 point of damage, hadn't launched any other attacks at all.

So being able to get these free attribute rewards was already pretty good.

He opened the attribute list.

"Name: Night Dusk."

"Realm: Acquired Second-Rate."

"Status: Healthy."

"Health: 400/400."

"Inner Force: 151/700."

"Force Control: 175 [Base: 195] [Status/Buff: -20]."

"Force Dissipation: 195 [Base: 215] [Status/Buff: -20]."

"Comprehension: 1. [Special Attribute]"

"Talent: Breath of the Night [Human Grade High]."

"Skills: Analytical Eyes [Human Grade Low], Starlight Saber Technique 1st Level [Acquired Third-Rate], Water Sky Saber Technique 1st Level [Crude Martial Art], Blazing Fire Heart Sutra [Acquired First-Rate/Fourth Layer], Starlight Heart Sutra 3rd Level [Acquired Third-Rate/Max Level]."

"Lifespan: 7 months and 25 days."

His lifespan fluctuated up and down, but it was still considered stable.

After all, every battle was burning his lifespan.

On the other hand, his base attributes had been raised a bit, which made Fang Yue quite satisfied.

Of course, compared to a freak like Qi Ba Jiu, Fang Yue was far inferior.

That [Shadow Devouring Ghoul], which seemed almost invincible to Fang Yue, couldn't even withstand a single move from Lord [Qi Ba Jiu], and was instantly killed on the spot.

The difference in strength was already as vast as the heavens and the earth.

"Let's go, we, Jibing…"

Just as Lord Qi Ba Jiu said this, she suddenly frowned slightly.

"It seems I can't fly back myself. Her body has reached its limit."

Ni Dongmei immediately understood. "Lord Qi Ba Jiu, rest assured, I will escort Wei Ba back to the Jibing Sect. You can rest and recuperate."

"Yes, and don't teach her cultivation techniques randomly. When I have recovered, I will personally instruct her."

"Yes!"

As soon as the words fell, Qi Ba Jiu's eyes slowly closed, and when they opened, her eyes returned to Wei Ba's usual black.

But her frosty white, long legs remained.

"Night Bro, it's me!"

"I know…"

Fang Yue looked at Wei Ba strangely. It was indeed a bit strange for two people to be using one body. Fang Yue hadn't transitioned from Qi Ba Jiu's majesty, and seeing Wei Ba using Qi Ba Jiu's image, jumping and skipping, happily surrounding him, Fang Yue always felt strange.

He was always worried that Wei Ba would switch to Qi Ba Jiu in the next second, and then shatter him into ice with a single glance.

"Lord Ni Dongmei, what exactly is going on with Wei Ba's Void Spirit Root? And what's her situation now? Will she go back to the Jibing Sect with you? Take me with you!"

The first few questions were still normal, but the last sentence was a bit outrageous.

Take you with me? Are you kidding me!

Ni Dongmei rolled her eyes at Fang Yue.

"You've already learned the Blazing Fire Sect's Heart Sutra, and you still want to join our Jibing Sect?"

"What are you talking about! Your Supreme Sect Master, Lord Qi Ba Jiu, used to be the Blazing Fire Sect Master! If she can learn the Blazing Fire Sect's techniques and then be the Jibing Sect's boss, why can't I?"

Hearing Fang Yue's words, Ni Dongmei's expression clearly changed.

"How do you know that Lord Qi Ba Jiu once…"

"I have my own channels, anyway, this shows that learning the Blazing Fire Sect's Heart Sutra does not affect becoming a Jibing Sect disciple at all, right!"

"...Even so, your aptitude is far from qualified to enter the Jibing Sect."

What? What, what, what?

Fang Yue was angry. "I am a man with 1 point of comprehension!"

*Pfft!*

As soon as Fang Yue finished speaking, Ni Dongmei burst out laughing.

"Someone is actually holding 1 point of comprehension as a treasure? Do you have some misunderstanding about 1 point of comprehension? If you want to enter my Jibing Sect, you have to be a genius to start! One in ten thousand! With your comprehension, you should go to a third-rate sect and be a treasure."

Something's wrong… very wrong!

Fang Yue's heart skipped a beat.

Could it be that my proud comprehension is actually not that great?

But that's not right, other players have even lower comprehension than me, all 0 points of comprehension!

No! Wait!

The so-called 0 points of comprehension is just my own guess. Other people just have hidden attributes that can't be seen. As for what the actual value is, who knows.

After thinking about it, Fang Yue asked, "Then… what is Wei Ba's comprehension?"

"How would I know?"

Fang Yue: ???

Something's not right with you. You're mocking my low comprehension, but you're also saying you don't know how much Wei Ba's comprehension is.

"What are you thinking, little guy? Wei Ba, even if she's the trashiest of trash, with her Void Spirit Root, she's still an object that many sects will scramble to snatch! To the point where she can directly become a true disciple!"
