Swallowing the Stars: The cheat system only comes when I'm almost a god?
Chapter 7: Openness and Frankness, Showcasing Financial Strength
[Lin Yuan: @Ye Fan, I'd like to ask you what your so-called safe departure standard is?]
Ye Fan: Lin...
He really didn't know how to address Lin Yuan.
Calling him by his first name or addressing him as Brother Lin or Brother Lin? That's inappropriate; he's over three million years old!
Should he call someone "big boss" like Xiao Meng? Even Ye Fan, who knew his future achievements after seeing the memory copy, couldn't bring himself to do it.
"We can't exactly call him Grandpa Lin, can we?!"
Lin Yuan: Just call me by my name. I'm still a young man in this world.
Besides, even billions of years from now, the age difference between everyone won't be that significant.
[Ye Fan: Uh... okay, Lin Yuan. What did you mean by that question just now?]
[Lin Yuan: It's simple! Your world is too dangerous, and with my current strength, I don't dare go there. So I can only give you some equipment or technical support.]
Lin Yuan: So you need to ask clearly whether you want to follow the original plot, or save everyone, or just save some classmates you are close to.
I will provide the appropriate level of support depending on the situation.
"Is that so!" Ye Fan nodded. Having seen the memory copy, he knew what kind of people his classmates were, and made a decision without much thought.
[Ye Fan: How can we save more people? Should we stop Pang Bo from taking down the bronze plaque?]
[Lin Yuan: It's a possible solution, but I don't think it will be very effective.]
[Lin Yuan: Shaking his head.jpg, In the original work, Crocodile Ancestor said when you returned to Yinghuo that even without you breaking the seal, he could have escaped within twenty or thirty years.]
Therefore, with only one bronze plaque remaining, it's hard to say how long it can be sealed. If he is reborn in a few days, and the five-colored altar is not yet fully charged, your path to becoming the Heavenly Emperor will be severed here!
[Zhang Zhiwei: Fellow Daoists, excuse me for interrupting.]
[Lin Yuan: What advice does the Celestial Master have for me?]
[Ye Fan: Master, what I need most right now is collective wisdom and effort. Please feel free to offer any suggestions you may have.]
Judging from the previous conversation, Xiao Meng is also a newbie who has just embarked on the path of cultivation. The Whitebeard system is too disconnected from them and it is difficult for it to provide any help.
Therefore, to achieve the goal, we still need to rely on Lin Yuan and this Heavenly Passage Master.
[Zhang Zhiwei: Smiling.jpg, I took another close look at the Martian content in the memory copy and found a problem.]
[Zhang Zhiwei: First, all damaged Buddhist artifacts are blessed with Buddhist power and possess the ability to suppress and seal the Crocodile Ancestor, is that correct?]
[Ye Fan: Nodding.jpg, you're right.]
[Zhang Zhiwei: If that's the case, then it's unclear who truly released the Crocodile Ancestor.]
[Ye Fan: Confused.jpg, wasn't that Pang Bo? The place collapsed after he walked out of the Great Thunderclap Temple with the bronze plaque.]
Zhang Zhiwei: No, no, no! Both Buddhism and Taoism have methods to seal demons, so how can you be sure that the bronze plaque is the key to the formation?
Couldn't it be that all the Buddhist artifacts are merely part of a seal, with any one piece capable of exerting its sealing power within the temple, and the formation only dissipating after all of them are taken away?
"Oh? A new idea!" Lin Yuan recalled his distant memories. There were indeed such speculations on forums and online communities back then, but not many people took them seriously. After all, it was obvious to the naked eye that Pang Bo was behind it all.
[Ye Fan: So, what does the Master mean? Is it to leave a few Buddhist artifacts at the Great Thunderclap Temple?]
[Zhang Zhiwei: No! Take it all!]
[Zhang Zhiwei: Judging solely from human nature, once you obtained that ancient bronze lamp, you couldn't stop all the Buddhist artifacts from being taken away, because there will always be people who didn't gain anything and would want the bronze plaque.]
[Zhang Zhiwei: Moreover, if the Crocodile Ancestor doesn't break the seal, and without the flesh and blood of the Little Divine Crocodile to power the altar, you might be trapped on Mars for a long time. At that point, the struggle for survival resources might lead to even more grotesque acts.]
"Hoo..." Ye Fan took a deep breath, a wry smile on his face. "Still can't escape?"
Ye Fan: I understand. It seems the only option is to empty the Great Thunderclap Temple and escape as soon as possible.
[Zhang Zhiwei: Fellow Daoist, don't be discouraged. This old Daoist cannot pull you out of that desperate situation, but there is still a powerful, prepared deity in the group.]
[Zhang Zhiwei: @Lin Yuan, the old Taoist has finished his analysis. Now it's your turn.]
[Lin Yuan: Hairless.jpg.]
[Lin Yuan: @Ye Fan, after reviewing everything again, I have three strategies for you to choose from: superior, middle, and inferior.]
[Ye Fan: Touching his chin.jpg, Oh? Tell me more.]
[Lin Yuan: The worst-case scenario is to follow the original story. I'll give you a few sets of armor and weapons, then you can find a few people to go on a rampage, kill all of Crocodile Ancestor's descendants before he appears, and then run away once you're fully charged.]
Ye Fan: ?
[Ye Fan: I'm lucky I wasn't immediately isolated after conjuring something out of thin air! How am I supposed to lead a team into battle?]
[Lin Yuan: poking his finger.jpg, so this is a last resort.]
[Lin Yuan: The middle strategy is for me to give you some things rich in energy. Using them to power the Buddhist artifacts is definitely much better than you just waving them around randomly.]
Ye Fan, who had entered the Great Thunderclap Temple before the others, had a bright idea in his eyes.
[Ye Fan: @Lin Yuan, this is it!]
Lin Yuan: Don't worry, there's a better plan.
Ye Fan: I'm all ears.
[Lin Yuan: Grab the stuff and run. Get back to the bronze coffin as soon as possible. I'll send you some high-energy items to fully power up the altar.]
[Lin Yuan: As long as we don't waste time on the road, we probably won't even encounter the small crocodiles before we set off.]
As Ye Fan picked up the ancient bronze lamp in front of the stone Buddha, a gleam of joy flashed in his eyes. This method required no fighting at all, and the chances of the Crocodile Ancestor possessing Li Xiaoman would be infinitely reduced if they didn't meet face-to-face.
[Ye Fan: Then I'll leave it to you!]
……
Lin Yuan was overjoyed at having made another deal, humming a little tune as he searched for the things he needed to send to Ye Fan.
A casual glance inside my body, and I knew it was you!
With a thought, the water level of a divine lake formed from the accumulation of cosmic energy, which had once been captured and used as an object of observation, instantly dropped by more than half.
"Ding! Group member Lin Yuan sent Ye Fan a designated red envelope."
"Ding! Group member Lin Yuan has sent out a lucky draw red envelope, everyone hurry up and grab it!"
[Lin Yuan: @Ye Fan, what I sent you is a thousand-year-old spiritual marrow, but the quantity is quite large. You'd better retrieve it from outside after most people have entered the bronze coffin.]
[Lin Yuan: @Zhang Zhiwei @Edward Newgate @Meng Qi, the lucky draw red envelope also contains Millennium Spirit Essence, but not much. Consider it a small gift from me to you all.]
[Lin Yuan: Everyone, try it out and see how it goes. If it's good, I'll post some more later.]
"Ding! Ye Fan has received the Millennium Spirit Essence."
"Um..." Under the Bodhi tree, looking at the water on the red envelope screen that looked like half a lake, Ye Fan fell into deep thought: "Is this telling me to flood the seven armies?"
[Ye Fan: Thank you, *clasps hands in thanks*.jpg]
"Ding! Meng Qi, Zhang Zhiwei, and Edward Newgate have received their lucky draw red envelopes."
[Meng Qi: Hahaha! I'm the king of luck! A full seventy catties of thousand-year-old spiritual marrow! This is the chosen one!]
[Zhang Zhiwei: The old Taoist is not bad either. Sixty catties of thousand-year-old spiritual essence is a miracle that is impossible to happen again in this world!]
Edward Newgate: Why do I only weigh 20 pounds? I'm a white-bearded guy!
It's clear that she's truly broken down; even her signature devilish smile is gone.
Seeing these messages, and then looking at his lake, which could be described as containing tens of millions of tons, Ye Fan fell into deep thought again: "Brother Lin Yuan truly loves me!"
[Lin Yuan: The Millennium Spiritual Marrow is mild in nature and can be used externally or taken directly internally. Its effect is to turn you into a mini-superman, making it one of the most suitable resources for those in the early stages of cultivation, like Ye Fan and Xiao Meng.]
[Lin Yuan: @Ye Fan, drink more; you can use it as provisions to start your journey through the Sea of Suffering.]
[Lin Yuan: @Zhang Zhiwei @Edward Newgate, besides greatly enhancing physical abilities, the Millennium Spiritual Marrow can also heal internal injuries. It should be useful for both of you. It's not a dream for Whitebeard to return to his peak after using it.]
……
The world that shrouds the heavens, the ancient star of Mars.
"Is this the Millennium Spirit Essence?" Ye Fan shook the mineral water bottle in his hand, the milky white liquid inside sloshing around.
Looking around, Pang Bo and his classmates were all searching for Buddhist artifacts, and no one was paying attention to this place.
After hesitating for a long time, he still tilted his head back and poured all the millennium spiritual essence in the bottle into his mouth. Now there was nothing else for him to use for testing medicine. Anyway, the Ancient Sacred Body was resilient, so he just went for it.
After swallowing the spiritual liquid, Ye Fan waited for a long time but his body showed no reaction. He couldn't help but look strange: "Does this stuff have an expiration date? Is it expired?"
"That's not right! I feel a bit more energetic." He shook his head, thinking to himself, "It might be because of the Ancient Sacred Body. This amount of energy is too far from the threshold I can withstand, so it doesn't seem to have changed."
With a reasonable explanation and no adverse reactions after use, he called Pang Bo aside and said, "Pang Bo, drink this."
"What's this? Nutritional Express? Why is it in a mineral water bottle?" Naturally, she took the bottle from Ye Fan and downed it in one gulp without asking any questions.
"Never mind that, just drink yours!"
……
In the world of Under One Person, Zhang Zhiwei's eyes were deep as he looked at the large wooden barrel that had appeared beside him.
"The spiritual energy it emits alone gives me a sense of breakthrough. It seems the item is genuine. I just wonder if Fellow Daoist Lin added anything to it."
Having lived for over a hundred years, he had witnessed far too many petty and despicable acts, making it difficult for him to trust others' selfless help again. He would be more comfortable using his junior brother's affairs as a bargaining chip, as he had done before.
I strolled slowly toward the dining hall, where there were a few laying hens. I decided to try using them first.
……
In the world of One Piece, on the deck of the Moby Dick, Whitebeard, holding a small wooden bucket that had suddenly appeared in his hand, didn't rush to drink it. He used his Observation Haki to probe the sea surface.
"Found it!"
A moment later, his eyes narrowed, and a surge of Conqueror's Haki erupted, causing a small Sea King several hundred meters long to rise from the water.
He jumped onto it and lightly punched a large hole in the upturned belly of the fish. The unconscious giant was immediately awakened by the pain and tried to struggle but was held tightly.
Whitebeard used his fingertips to pick up some water droplets, about half a pound, and flicked them directly into the mouth of the sea king beneath him.
A miraculous thing happened: the moment the millennium-old spiritual marrow entered its mouth, it no longer resisted, but instead showed a look of enjoyment. The wound on its abdomen also began to heal, and within two minutes it became completely smooth.
"The things Lord Lin Yuan gave me seem quite good; they should be able to heal my injuries too, right?"
In short, of the four people who received gifts from Lin Yuan, apart from the naive Xiao Meng who directly consumed it, the others all used their own methods to verify that the millennium spiritual marrow was beneficial or harmless before daring to take it themselves.
……
In the world of One Piece, on the Moby Dick, Whitebeard's hair turned from white to black after consuming two or three kilograms of millennium-old spiritual essence in one go, and his body also recovered its youth under the nourishment, becoming even stronger than before.
His uncontrollable burst of Conqueror's Haki stunned a large number of the men. Only a few captains approached despite the oppressive aura, hurriedly asking if an enemy had appeared.
With a single sentence, he told his sons to go downstairs, and only then did the white-bearded man have time to reply to the group message.
[Edward Newgate: Thank you! From now on, Lin Yuan, I will definitely support your decisions in the group.]
As he was forcefully feeding his junior brother the thousand-year-old spiritual essence, Old Zhang couldn't help but shed tears as he watched his junior brother's hands, feet, and flesh appear out of thin air.
[Zhang Zhiwei: If you have any orders in the future, as long as they do not violate the righteous path, this old Daoist will follow you to the death.]
