Xia Tianlai suddenly realized something and immediately looked at Jiang Liu, then knelt down with a thud. "Jiang Liu! Jiang Liu! Please, save my wife!"
Jiang Liu walked around him, avoiding his bow, and went to Laila. He looked her up and down and said, "I usually only accept the kneeling of beasts and ordinary people who are acting out of emotion... Old man, your manner is improper."
Summer opened her mouth, pleading, "Please, I'm willing to give anything!"
This obsession—
He never let go.
Without him.
If he truly wanted to let go, he should have prevented Layla from suffering further torment, taken the initiative to end her life, and then sent her life essence to the soul storage jar in Dragonbone Village, hoping to conduct a resurrection experiment after the village's life iteration system was fully completed...
However, the future was too far away, and Xia Tianlai's love for his wife turned into an obsession, so he begged Bai Yuekui to let his wife be the first test subject.
Perhaps it's also related to the fact that Xia Tianlai is a doctor.
"Returning her to normal is not difficult, but are you really prepared to bear the price of bringing her back from the dead?"
Jiang Liu, however, turned his attention to Bai Yuekui and Mark, "When resurrection is no longer just a dream—"
As long as you have the resources, you can create a physical body!
As long as the source material is intact, it can be resurrected!
What changes will occur in a person's will and thinking?
Am I going to revive all the life essence in your village's soul storage jars one by one? Tsk tsk, then this planet will truly become the 'playground' of Mana Ecosystem's higher-dimensional will, only the players have changed from higher-dimensional will to humans.
Although I am also human, this kind of "power fantasy protagonist" resurrection might bring you a disaster even greater than the Mana ecosystem.
Having experienced that dark and apocalyptic time, Bai Yuekui knew that Jiang Liu's words were true. Although the life iteration system of Dragon Bone Village was being continuously researched, it could only give everyone a vision of a distant future, a hope and a source of strength that would prevent them from continuing to degenerate and even encourage them to strive for progress and fight against the Mana ecosystem.
Leila's "resurrection" at this stage is not successful. Her miserable appearance makes the rest of the village uneasy, but it also gives them hope for the improvement of the life iteration system.
But what if we mastered the technology of true resurrection right now?
The villagers' cohesion will undoubtedly increase significantly in a short period of time, but what about the more distant future? Will people be bold enough to deliberately court disaster?
Bai Yuekui possesses an extremely long-term vision, taking it upon himself to benefit all of humanity, and keeping the future of the human race in his heart.
Therefore, this matter must be considered carefully!
At the very least, detailed and comprehensive rules for "resurrection" must be established to prevent situations from arising in Dragon Bone Village where villagers don't value their lives!
"But...but Leila, she..."
Having finally seen a glimmer of hope for Leila's recovery, how could they easily give up now that summer is here?
But on the other hand, the "resurrection" brings a shock to the original order of Dragonbone Village...
He is not reconciled!
Seeing this, Jiang Liu blew a breath through Leila's Ren and Du meridians, and after a full rotation, he managed to straighten her body.
"Lyra!"
Xia Tianlai looked at Leila in surprise as she sat up, then looked at Jiang Liu.
"How should I put it? She has actually been 'resurrected,' but the flow of her life essence is obstructed and it is constantly dissipating outwards, which has led to her current state. As long as she continues to practice the Small Heavenly Circuit, her life activities will be no different from those of an ordinary person."
Jiang Liu explained, "But for the rest of her life, she must constantly use her mind to circulate Qi."
Chapter 1173 Resurrection (Part 2)
"Thank you!"
Although the right side of Lyra's body is still in a state of flesh and soil, the fact that she can now speak and walk is already a very good start.
Leila's changes also made Bai Yuekui realize what the life iteration system was lacking—
Refining Qi!
As long as the life essence is reverse-transported to the carbon-based body that has been bio-3D printed, and the body can actively guide the life essence to circulate according to the Ren and Du meridians, true resurrection can be achieved!
Mark had also considered this, and excitedly asked Bai Yuekui, "I absorbed Ran Bing's life essence. Is she still inside my spirit seed? If so, could you extract her, create her body, and then transfer the essence back into her body..."
If only we could get Jiang Liu to help us open up those two meridians...
Will Ran Bing be able to be completely resurrected?
Bai Yuekui glanced at him, and finally nodded, saying, "Ever since we found you in the Wrong Street Canyon, we have sensed her presence within your Spirit Seed."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
Mark was somewhat angry.
"The spirit seeds of the Devouring Beasts are not as tough as their bones; they can easily break if you're not careful."
Bai Yuekui remained unfazed.
"Furthermore, the life essence will gradually dissipate within the Spirit Seed."
"I'm not telling you this to avoid leaving you powerless after you know the truth."
Faced with these reasons, Mark gritted his teeth, focused all his attention on Jiang Liu, and asked, "Jiang Liu, can you save Ran Bing?"
"Grandma Bai, do you think that if Ran Bing comes back to life, he will generate a strong enough will?" Jiang Liu didn't answer Mark, but instead passed the buck to Bai Yuekui.
The latter frowned slightly and said, "You have a way to revive Ran Bing, but as you said before, there is a price to pay for resurrection. Laila is one thing, you only helped her open up her Ren and Du channels, but if you really revive someone, then Ran Bing cannot be an isolated case. A large number of people in the village need you to revive them. Moreover, once death can be resurrected, then life is no longer so precious."
"Therefore, we need more comprehensive rules. Didn't you create the life iteration system so that the dead could return to the world someday in the future?"
Seeing that Bai Yuekui had tacitly agreed, Jiang Liu then turned his attention to Mark and said, "I can help you revive Ran Bing, but you will need to pay a price."
"I'm willing to do anything!"
Mark was incredibly excited, exclaiming, "Including my life!"
"Your life is spared. Otherwise, even if your Ran Bing came back to life and found out that it was thanks to you, she would probably commit suicide for you."
Jiang Liu sighed, glanced at Bai Yuekui, and said quietly, "In the entire Dragon Bone Village, only this Grandma Bai can be considered a true cultivator, capable of controlling her emotions quite well."
Everyone else, including you, Mark, from the lighthouse, is too sentimental.
While this emotion is a driving force behind human evolution, being constantly emotional, restless, and prone to distractions makes success difficult.
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Liu reached out a hand, traversing space, and directly connected with the storage ring on Hong Guniang's hand, pulling out a thin golden hoop.
"This is?"
Mark was puzzled, but immediately asked, "A tool that can extract Ran Bing's life essence from my spirit seed?"
"No, it's a golden headband I crafted. As for its function, Dragon Bone Village should have shown the animated film 'The Monkey King Subdues the Demon,' right? It's similar to Sun Wukong's headband."
As he spoke, Jiang Liu chanted the mantra: Om Mani Padme Hum. After refining it once again with the primordial energy, he floated it in front of Mark. "As long as I chant the mantra of calming the mind, and your mind is not calm and your mind is not at peace, and your whole person is completely dominated by emotional impulses, then it will tighten and make you suffer unbearable pain."
However, this thing can also, to some extent, isolate you from the subtle influence of the mana ecosystem...
Besides me, any higher-dimensional deity behind the Mana ecosystem could also help you resurrect Ran Bing if they so wished...
Make a choice.
Bai Yuekui, Xia Tianlai, and Xia Dou looked at the golden hoop, then at Mark, and all held their breath.
Mana's ecological energy can revive Ranbing.
He Jiangliu can also revive Ran Bing.
The golden headband is both a constraint and a test.
Restraint—
Mark will lose some of his freedom.
test--
Does Mark still consider himself a human being?
And what about the parties involved?
Mark grabbed the golden headband without hesitation and put it on his head.
In an instant.
The golden hoop took root in the flesh, piercing Mark's skin and muscles, drilling into his skull, and then into his cerebral cortex, perfectly intertwining with his brain nerves.
"I've already put it on, so can I save Ran Bing now?" Mark asked eagerly.
However, Jiang Liu did not answer. Instead, he put his right index and middle fingers together and silently recited the six-syllable mantra for calming the mind.
"what!"
Mark's face was contorted, his head was throbbing with pain, and all his strength seemed to vanish in an instant. He collapsed to the ground, howling in agony.
"Wait, what are you doing? Mark is in excruciating pain!"
Xia Dou called out anxiously.
Jiang Liu stopped chanting and said to Mark, who was lying on the ground with his chest heaving and a look of relief on his face, "It's not possible to remove Ran Bing in a short time."
"How to say?"
Upon hearing Ran Bing's name, Mark immediately perked up, straightened up, and hurriedly inquired about her.
"The mantra I recite is called the Mind-Soothing Mantra, also known as the Six-Syllable Mantra. It is the six-syllable mantra Om Mani Padme Hum, which comes from a higher dimension. However, it only works when recited with the power of the mind. Ordinary people can recite it ten thousand times without any effect."
“Your mind is too cluttered, and you cannot achieve inner peace, so you cannot bear it, and you feel pain with the slightest thought. In this state, if you rashly remove Ran Bing's life essence, your spiritual seed will be damaged or even shattered.”
"You must first become completely familiar with the body of this Devouring Beast, and then cultivate to the point of being indifferent to external gains or losses, before you can extract Ran Bing's life essence more smoothly."
Mark frowned, suspecting that Jiang Liu's move was to prevent him from being bewitched by Mana Ecology and thus defecting to Mana Ecology, which made him feel somewhat indignant.
Although he now possesses the body of a Devouring Beast, he still considers himself a human!
If only Mana Ecology can revive Ran Bing, then he will first pretend to join Mana Ecology, borrow its power to revive Ran Bing, and then find a way to defeat it!
But now—
This road seems to have been given a golden headband because of him...
broken.
"As practitioners, or rather, as human beings, from the moment our ancestors, the ancient apes, first straightened their backs, even when forced by changing circumstances, they still defined what 'righteousness' is."
The price you pay for taking shortcuts is far beyond your imagination.
