"Hmph, I helped her defused a time bomb. If she dares to cause me trouble, I'll deal with her... I'll have Master deal with her."
Jiang Ning changed his mind. His master said that General Balzeb, the Thunder General, was exceptionally strong and his martial arts were superb. In short, you couldn't beat him now.
Otherwise, why do you think Jiang Ning tries to avoid meeting with Balzebu?
However, if one could directly acquire the body of a demon god through this, that would be a different story.
"What do you want to do now? Go back?"
Heurelia said.
"Let's find a place where I can absorb this stuff."
Jiang Ning thought for a moment and then took out the Dust Song Pot.
"It's inside the Dust Song Pot. Let's go back to Daoqi City first, and after I give the Dust Song Pot to Keqing, I'll go in."
Heulia nodded: "That's fine, the Dust Song Pot is indeed a very safe place."
The two of them collected some minerals and plants needed to make bodies in the wild, and then rushed back to Inazuma Castle before dark.
…………
"how are you today?"
Jiang Ning saw Ke Qing and asked.
At this moment, the cat looked angry, and it was clear that someone had offended Inazuma.
"Why are the three chief ministers of Inazuma like this? I still have a good impression of the corporate chief minister, and dealing with them feels like a proper diplomatic affair."
"But the Kanding Envoy has been picking and choosing the supplies and goods we send over, while the Tianling Envoy is so arrogant and conceited."
"Honestly, even the Fatui didn't dare to speak to Liyue like that back then."
Keqing was truly enraged. After all, she was one of the Seven Stars, and the Emperor of Liyue was still alive.
And what was their attitude? They acted as if inviting us to do business here was a sign of respect.
And those merchants, they can be released, but they have to pay a ransom? It's even more impossible to get the goods back, there's always this explanation and that explanation.
It's almost like petty thugs collecting protection money.
Of course, today's negotiations ended in discord.
Jiang Ning poured Ke Qing a glass of water: "Calm down. I told you, you can talk to the other side however you want. I'll take care of everything, along with the immortals of Liyue and your master. But what about Yae no Kōji? He didn't show up today?"
Ke Qing said, "It seems they left halfway through. I heard that something went wrong with the sealing artifact, and after Miss Yae left, those people immediately changed their attitude."
Jiang Ning pondered. The sealed talisman... It seems there are quite a few things in this place that are harmful to Inazuma, but for him, that's another story.
Jiang Ning decided to return to his old profession of playing cards.
But right now, the most important thing is to absorb the deity inside the furnace core.
Jiang Ning took out the Dust Song Pot and said seriously:
"Keqing, there are some things I need to ask you... In Inazuma, you are the only one I can trust."
Ke Qing straightened her expression and said, "Go on."
Jiang Ning said, "I need to absorb some things and then I need a quiet and safe place to cultivate in seclusion. After thinking it over, the Dust Song Pot should be the safest. However, if I keep the Dust Song Pot at home, I am afraid that someone will sneak in. So, I will trouble you to carry it with you."
Ke Qing also said seriously, "Don't worry, as long as we're here, the pot will be there."
3仪唲叭义汜易Ⅲ纠
Jiang Ning scratched his head: "It doesn't have to be that exaggerated, I just want a safe place..."
After all, given my constitution, I wouldn't be prone to qi deviation or anything like that. If I get disturbed, I can just end my seclusion early.
He simply wanted to take this opportunity to obtain the body of a demon god in one fell swoop.
That's why I asked Ke Qing for help.
If we miss this chance, who knows when the next one will come?
Jiang Ning realized that things were really tough for him. He had to feed Heulia and then feed Gui Zhong, whom he had never met before. Now, it was even difficult for him to get enough to eat.
Keqing said, "Don't worry, I'll protect you... I doubt Inazuma would dare to attack us directly."
Jiang Ning couldn't help but say, "Just be careful of the Fools, but with your strength, even if you can't beat them, you should be able to run away, right?"
Keqing was very confident: "As a Seven Star, although my daily work is complicated, I have not neglected my swordsmanship and elemental power training at all."
As long as you're not facing a demon god, even if you're facing a regular demon god's familiar, you can run away if you can't win.
Jiang Ning nodded: "Here's what we'll do... Take this thing. If there's any real danger, just crush it. I can sense it. Also, it can generate a shield made of Master's divine power, which can withstand a single strike from General Lei Dian."
While away from home, with many elders at home and high expectations placed upon him, Jiang Ning was truly cunning and resourceful, possessing all sorts of abilities. If a fight broke out without any limits, Jiang Ning was confident that even General Lei Dian would be driven to madness by his cunning.
After explaining everything, Jiang Ning also entered the Dust Song Pot.
Ke Qing carefully put away the Dust Song Pot, deciding to carry it with her every day.
However, the Dust Song Pot cannot be placed inside the Eye of God, so I'll probably have to carry a bag when I go out these days...
Fortunately, I'm used to carrying a briefcase when I go out, so I just switched to a bigger one that won't attract too much attention.
…………
Inside the Dust Song Pot, there is a fairy island where Jiang Ning's family residence is located. Jiang Ning first left a note at home, telling those who come to his Dust Song Pot not to disturb him.
He then chose a fairy island that had not yet been cultivated and began his absorption.
"System, full power, suck!"
【receive! 】
Jiang Ning took a deep breath and suddenly opened a hole in the furnace core. The aura of the Divine Lord surged out wildly, and Jiang Ning immediately turned the power up to the maximum, frantically absorbing the power of the Divine Lord.
Its innate constitution was also operating at full speed, beginning to transform the divine aura into the purest energy and soul replenishment.
Jiang Ning is essentially treating himself as a giant purification pool.
Energy and residue useful for repairing the soul are slowly infused into the locks of the mortal world.
However, anything useless or even harmful was simply accepted by Jiangning.
Jiang Ning gradually entered a strange state, and the strength and status of his body also gradually changed.
The Worldly Lock floating beside him also began to shimmer.
153. That's infuriating!
Even Jiang Ning himself did not expect that this seclusion would last for three days.
However, the final result of these three days of seclusion was still very encouraging.
Jiang Ning's entry into the body of a demon god was a natural progression, without the lightning and tribulations of other worlds.
Just when the opportunity struck, I sneezed and stepped in.
Perhaps this is a characteristic of Teyvat? They are afraid that some strange celestial phenomenon might shatter the false heavens.
The Lock of the Mortal World has also stirred; Jiang Ning can sense the soul returning to its origin within, though it is currently still asleep.
However, Jiang Ning has "injected" so much energy into Gui Zhong this time that Gui Zhong still needs time to digest it.
Heureia looked at Jiang Ning before her, sensing the immense power within him and the refinement of his physical body, and couldn't help but say:
"It seems you've had quite a bit of success. You've worked hard."
"Yes, this surprise was really great, I'm very satisfied."
Jiang Ning clenched his fist and said.
Then, he felt Heureya looking him up and down.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Ning couldn't help but ask.
Heureia shook her head, then asked somewhat uncertainly, "Have you... grown a little taller?"
Jiang Ning was taken aback, then quickly took out a mirror and said, "Really...?"
After all this time, I had given up hope of growing taller, and now people are saying I've grown taller?
Looking in the mirror, Jiang Ning was overjoyed. He had indeed grown taller. Jiang Ning thought to himself, "My eyes are my ruler. Can't I tell whether I've grown taller or not?"
"It's about three centimeters."
Just in case, Jiang Ning took out a ruler and had Heulia measure him. He immediately felt refreshed.
Three centimeters! Hehehe, I'm so tall now!
Jiang Ning said with a serious expression, "No wonder my clothes feel a bit short now, it turns out it's because I've grown taller... Hehehe, I'm so happy."
Heureia looked extremely uncomfortable: "Are you serious?"
And this outfit was made for you by Xianyun, right? It was made with magic to ward off dust and is designed to fit snugly, so it can automatically change size as you grow... How could it be too short?
“Sister Liya, you don’t understand. This is a series of heartfelt efforts, a most significant step forward.”
Heuria pursed her lips, indicating her incomprehension. Shouldn't she be happy to have the body of a demon god at this time?
Having entered the inner sanctum, it is considered to have achieved this.
"Tongzi, come out and explain yourself! Didn't you say I wouldn't grow taller?"
[Perhaps it's because the host's physical strength has increased, allowing them to grow taller automatically? Let me see... Yes, the instructions say that the stronger the body, the greater the height will be, but it will plateau at 1.9 meters.]
"Really, Master?" Jiang Ning's eyes practically lit up.
Being 1.9 meters tall is like Mount Everest to me right now.
Jiang Ning could already imagine herself, who was always being carried in Shen He's arms, now holding Shen He in her own arms.
【…】
The system didn't say something, but the manual did: you basically need to be strengthened to the point where you can shatter the void and tear apart the river of time with just your physical body to reach that level...
In short, Jiangning now has something to look forward to.
However, before it fully matures, it still needs to be pulled along for a while.
The exact timeframe is unknown.
