From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

With great power comes great responsibility, you know?

If you don't help and instead just watch the drama unfold, you'll inevitably be implicated if problems arise later.

Yang Yuwen Xiaoyu was speechless, but she was unconvinced.

After all, if her other self really wanted to hurt Xiaozhu, she would stop her.

"And then, the greater the power, the greater the influence."

But Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu added a sentence.

"Oh, my little Jade, who taught you this?" Teacher Hamand exclaimed in surprise.

“You know, Professor Hammond, if we only talk about ability and responsibility while ignoring power, it becomes moral blackmail. No one says that having ability means you have to help others,” Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu said logically.

"Alright, Xiaoyu, after school, before you leave, write me a self-criticism, two hundred words." Teacher Hamand didn't argue.

This sentence immediately silenced Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu.

Meanwhile, Yang Yuwen Xiaoyu was secretly laughing.

then--

"the same as you."

Instantly.

Yang Yuwen's smile vanished, and she said, "Teacher, this is not fair."

"How about 300 words?"

Hamand turned around, adjusted his glasses, and consulted with the two girls, Xiaoyu, but his tone left no room for argument…

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

Students left school one after another, but two girls, Xiaoyu and Liang Xiaoyu, stayed in the classroom to write self-criticisms.

Do you need me to write it for you?

Seeing that Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu had only written about a hundred words, while Yang Yuwen Xiaoyu, who had already written three hundred, reached out her hand and said, "Although you made me write a self-criticism too, I have to say, the scene where you mentioned Xiaozhu, I dream of doing that, and the way you confronted Teacher Hamand—"

That's absolutely awesome!

"Really? I think I'm pretty cool too!" Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu didn't find her other self so annoying at this moment.

As for asking her to write my self-criticism...

Forget it.

My own responsibility!

You'll have to bear the consequences yourself!

Seeing that Yin Yuwen Xiaoyu insisted, Yang Yuwen Xiaoyu also changed her mind slightly, thinking to herself, "The other me doesn't seem like a purely 'bad guy' either."

The mutual understanding between the two also caused the light spots that existed in their ancestral apertures to tremble slightly.

Jiang Liuxin, who was pondering how to merge two identical bodies in his father's antique shop and magic laboratory, was slightly surprised and thought to himself: "Have they reached a consensus so quickly?"

Indeed, although the situation of the two little jades was similar to that of the real and fake Monkey Kings, they were still children after all.

Xiaoyu, who is obsessed with 'emptiness', is not pursuing the true path;

Xiaoyu, who is obsessed with 'lust', does not pursue fame or fortune.

Perhaps they didn't like each other at first, but they were both real, flesh-and-blood people, so becoming friends wouldn't be difficult, especially in a school where both were quite mature and wouldn't get along with other students their age...

However, this puts pressure on Jiang Liu.

To be honest, relying solely on the Light of the Mind - Huiyuan and the method of comprehending demonic energy to regulate one's aura, Jiang Liu was not 100% confident that he could merge the two Xiaoyu into one.

Other methods will also be needed.

With this thought in mind, Jiang Liu took out a large number of items from his storage ring, including a golden rhinoceros horn, a jade-winged golden-scaled mermaid, a crystal scalpel, a Buddhist wheel, a vampire's touch, a golden hoop, an earring with a yellow bead, and other items.

In an instant, Jiang Liu's gaze locked onto the earring. He picked it up and remembered that he had obtained it from Zhao Zhuikong of the East America Team in the Active Space. The yellow bead was engraved with a large number of complex and invisible runes, which were intertwined to form a mysterious symbol.

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Liu felt that this thing was somewhat familiar. After a moment's thought, Haotian Jinque Jade Emperor found the corresponding information.

Dragon Ball Z!

This earring is identical to the Potara Earring worn by the Supreme Kai!

Therefore, its only function is—

This allows two different individuals to merge!

If used by a non-King of the Sea, the duration will last for one hour.

However, it seems that it will disintegrate within Majin Buu's internal environment?

# Chapter 853 Three Corpses and Six Thieves

Potara earrings?

Integration?

Jiang Liu pondered for a moment, then clipped the earring onto his right ear. There was no reaction. He infused it with a wisp of Qi, but still no reaction.

Even if there is only one, it contains such complex, complete and naturally formed symbols that it should also produce some effect under the influence of Qi.

So Jiang Liu took off his earrings, looked at Shi Yin with his eyes open, and observed the symbols within. Finally, he discovered a clue:

The symbol inside the earring was complete, but it gave him a sense of loneliness.

Yin alone cannot grow, and Yang alone cannot produce; only when Yin and Yang are integrated and coordinated can they be effective.

"One more is needed."

After finding the key, Jiang Liu recorded the talisman inside the earring, defining it as "Yang," and began to work backward to find the corresponding "Yin" talisman.

In an instant, Jiang Liu constructed tens of thousands of "yin" symbols in his mind that corresponded to the "yang" symbol in the Potara earring, and attempted to simulate matching them, but none of them could be successfully simulated.

"It's harder than I imagined."

Jiang Liu was slightly puzzled. Even though the Potara earrings were items of the Supreme Kai in the world of Dragon Ball Z, the fact that he could observe and replicate the complete rune pattern meant that he could deduce it from the reverse.

But why did none of them succeed?

What if the problem isn't with the symbol?

Thinking of this possibility, Jiang Liu picked up the earring again and examined it closely, confirming that the Potara consisted of two parts.

Firstly, the silver metal earring chain is made of an extremely hard alloy—if it cannot be broken down at the atomic level, it would probably have to be thrown into the core of the sun to melt it.

Secondly, yellow gemstone-like earrings.

According to Jiang Liu's observation, this is not a gemstone, but a special type of calcification, similar to an insect's exoskeleton...

Perhaps the material of this earring comes from a special insect, and even the symbols engraved on it are very likely derived from that insect.

After all, the talisman gave Jiang Liu a sense of natural déjà vu.

Perfectly natural?

If it's not due to reaching the pinnacle of cultivation, then it's about imitating the patterns on naturally occurring, unique species by carving and creating them.

Since this earring can exist in this spacetime, it means that this universe allows for the existence of corresponding alloys and calcium compounds.

The composition of earrings is easy to determine; it's a certain type of calcium compound. With a few experiments, it can be created.

But alloys are difficult to refine.

and many more!

Jiang Liu suddenly realized that while it would be extremely difficult to refine the alloy for the Potara earring chain in the main world of Under One Person, the difficulty was significantly reduced in this "Little Jade's Adventure" world.

Because of the surrounding Qi formations, Qi magic can accomplish all sorts of incredible things. If we apply the methods of Qi cultivation to it and find the right approach, we can definitely replicate it!

He mastered the profound and wondrous secrets of the exoteric and esoteric schools, and used the five elements in a reversed and interconnected manner with the cosmic energy system. By leveraging this power, it would not be too difficult for him to refine the corresponding alloys.

All you need to know is the refining ratio of the Potara lug chain alloy.

"Brother Jiang, can't we just copy an earring and remove the alloy from it?"

Upon learning that Jiang Liu was going to refine the earrings he obtained from the reincarnators in the Main God Space, Lu Jin took out a book called "Introduction to Basic Magic" from the bookshelf and turned to the page on copying magic.

"It's called copying magic, but it's not actually creating something from nothing."

Jiang Liu knew about this copying magic, and with his keen eyes, he had even seen Xiao Yu use this magic to copy his father's most precious antique vase, as well as herself.

The problem stemmed from a mismatch in the proportions used to prepare the potion, causing the replicas to be repeatedly copied.

Even if the entire Earth were covered by the Zhouqi Bureau, energy would still be conserved; it's just that the efficiency of using Qi would be elevated to an unimaginable level.

Therefore, things that are copied, including people, have form, weight, and texture, but in essence they are nothing more than solidified and materialized energy.

To directly convert energy into matter—

can be realised.

But currently, no mage can do this.

Without him.

None of the mages at present understand science. The magic they learn mostly comes from the experience passed down from generation to generation of mages. Even the "new magic" created by the new generation of mages is still rooted in basic potions. The mages themselves are deeply ingrained in the concept that "magic is magic and science is science" and do not bother to understand the knowledge at the microscopic particle level of matter.

"Therefore, there are no shortcuts."

There are even shortcuts, whether in spiritual practice or anything else, but if it's not necessary, it's best not to take them.

If you take chances, you'll inevitably suffer the consequences later.

Jiang Liu shook his head and used "Journey to the West" to explain to Lu Jin that Sun Wukong had provided them with many wrong examples of taking shortcuts in cultivation.

Focusing solely on spiritual practice and cultivating the mind:

First, eliminate the six thieves.

Sun Wukong only eliminated the bandits in the mountains, but not the bandits within himself.

After leaving the Five Elements Mountain, he violently killed six thieves, which resulted in him wearing the golden headband.
