Seeing that Lingmo was starting to get confused again, Heita decisively ended the conversation.
"As for your current situation..."
"Black Tower, do you have a solution?"
Lingmo's eyes lit up.
"Have."
Black Tower nodded: "But the cost is a bit high, so Screw and I are trying to optimize this method for you. For this, I asked a friend who specializes in the field of biology for help."
"So, the price is..."
"Don't think about it anymore. I know you. You can't accept that price."
Black Tower sighed: "And I can't accept it either."
"When I first introduced you to the concept of destiny, you should remember that I described a special destiny to you, right?"
"【Balance】Destiny, its corresponding star god is the Balance Star God Mutual, who once indirectly created a mysterious star god, but ended up losing to the one who was learned and knowledgeable even when fighting two against one."
"Remember to remember."
Lingmo nodded repeatedly: "Balance exists in all things!"
"In the course of balanced destiny, there is a special profession called the Arbitrator."
Black Tower continued, "If you see someone in the universe who is powerful and has traveled far on multiple destinies, even contradictory ones... that person is most likely the arbiter of balancing destinies."
"Because of this profession, one can embark on multiple destinies simultaneously under the influence of balance, and ensure that the abilities of these different destinies do not interfere with each other. As for whether this is a characteristic of balanced destinies or a blessing from the Star God, opinions differ."
“In my space station, there is a wondrous artifact called the [Medium-Level Thought Group Machine]. This thing can directly influence your path to equilibrium. Combined with some other things, I am confident I can make you an Arbitrator, but…”
"That means you will become an extension of [Mutual]'s consciousness, because in the universe, Mutual's influence on its destiny travelers is even greater than that of the Last King and Lan, almost reaching the same level as intellect."
"Hmm... I probably really can't accept that."
Lingmo blinked: "However, the influence of mutual influence should have already silently permeated every corner of the universe, right? Looking at it this way, it seems that the power of balance is not far from us?"
"So, this is the research direction that Screw and I have chosen."
Black Tower shrugged: "We plan to extract some products of balanced destiny—whether power or artifacts—to help you stabilize the balance of power within your body."
"Of course, since you are involved, I don't intend to put all my eggs in one basket. I have already asked the company for a sample of Jianmu, which was a gift that Xianzhou and the company exchanged a long time ago. Then, I gave this to Ruan Mei."
"If a balance cannot be achieved, then let the [Abundance] within you completely suppress the [Destruction], which is also a solution, because the blessing of abundance within you is actually a third party outside of the destiny of abundance and the destiny of destruction."
"Oh right, we actually have a third backup method."
"As expected of Lady Black Tower!"
Lingmo immediately felt a sense of relief wash over her. With geniuses as her support, the feeling of security was indescribable.
"Don't get too excited yet, the third method is Stephen's responsibility."
Black Tower said with a hint of helplessness.
"If your physical problems really can't be solved, then he can find a way to get you some projection technology, so that at least your consciousness won't be locked in a dark room every day."
"So, this can only be considered... a last resort."
Chapter 179 Marshal of the Immortal Boat: My God, how can someone be so unlucky?
Several days later, in the Lin Yuan Realm, there was a place that was difficult for ordinary people to find, but where the Jianmu tree could be directly observed.
A figure dressed in a long robe, whose face was completely covered, was silently watching Jianmu.
Behind her, Jing Yuan lagged half a step behind, seemingly waiting for her to speak.
"Don't worry... she's fine."
After a long pause, the unfamiliar figure spoke.
"Jianmu is now, in a sense, her nanny. As long as she doesn't leave Jianmu, her life is safe."
"As for her wanting to leave..."
"Then members of the Genius Club will naturally step in."
Jingyuan immediately added.
"Yes."
The figure nodded slightly, then looked at Jing Yuan with a half-smile: "However... this time I have truly realized what it means for plans to go awry."
"If someone who doesn't know the inside story were to make the judgment on this matter, then... you'd really be branded as the 'miscalculating general'."
"Fortunately, it was you who came."
Jing Yuan smiled slightly: "I have already submitted a written report on the whole story. I hope the Marshal will investigate thoroughly."
"Although it is indeed inconvenient, I had to come here when the Black Tower and Screws were putting pressure on the Alliance."
The voice of Marshal Hua of the Cloud Cavalry sounded somewhat helpless.
"After all, it was Yao Qing who revealed that the company delivered the Jianmu sample to Ruan Mei, a friend of the Black Tower, while Zhu Ming provided information on the movements of that Mr. Screw Gumu. If we have to say, both sides have submitted evidence that is favorable to you. The people in the Ten Kings Division will definitely not trust them to investigate this matter."
"So, without making a big fuss about this, I have no choice but to make the trip secretly."
"Speaking of which, you mentioned in your report that this little guy seemed to have used a special ability to cosplay as me once? Do you have a photo?"
"Of course, Marshal."
Jing Yuan tapped the terminal a few times: "I knew you'd be curious about this."
"Um……"
Hua's gaze swept over the "other self" in the photo, then lingered for a moment on Ling Mo's photo, especially on the round, full heart on the girl's chest, before silently turning off the terminal.
"It really does look alike, no wonder Huanlong was scared."
"Alright, enough of the small talk. Jingyuan, this time I'm not here in Luofu for a formal investigation, so the specific procedures are a bit different from usual."
"Now, I need you to tell me the real reasons and details behind the whole incident... not the flowery words on the report, but your true plan and scheme. Do you have any objections?"
Jingyuan had no objection.
Jing Yuan bowed slightly in politeness: "However, this story may be a bit long, it probably... starts from thirty years ago."
"The Marshal should know that thirty years ago, shortly after the end of the Third Abundant People's War, I sensed that the Medicine King's secret teachings might be lurking within the Pill Cauldron Division. Of course, we had no evidence at the time, so I instructed Ding Yunhua, the then head of the Pill Cauldron Division, to secretly investigate the matter."
"But what I didn't expect was that at that time, due to the vacancy of the Dragon Lord's position, the Dragon Master, who held the power of the Vidyadhara, actually dared to cooperate with the Medicine King's secret transmission. As for the reason... I guess it was nothing more than the inherent flaws of the Vidyadhara clan. With the help of the Dragon Master, Yunhua and Lingsha, master and disciple, failed in their political struggle and fell into danger, and my plans were completely disrupted."
"So, I immediately took remedial measures and formulated a new plan. I found a reason to exile Yunhua and Lingsha to Zhuming and protect them. Then, I deliberately did not appoint a new Director of the Pill Cauldrons, creating a power vacuum in the Pill Cauldrons Department and prompting the Pill Master to take over."
“In the past, we couldn’t take action against the Pill Cauldron Division because we couldn’t find any evidence. The Medicine King’s Secret Lineage knew that its power was weak and acted with extreme caution. However, after the Pill Cauldron Division was taken over by the Medicine King’s Secret Lineage, their behavior gradually became erratic. At first, the Pill Cauldron Division could barely control the situation, but in recent years, this trend has become unavoidable.”
"As for me, I have already planted an inside agent in the Medicine King's Secret Teachings. The reason I haven't made a move yet is because I want to obtain irrefutable evidence of the Dragon Master's cooperation with the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, so as to pave the way for the current Dragon Lord Bai Lu... However, just as I was about to make my move, the second unexpected event occurred."
"The second surprise is about Huanxianglong, right?"
Hua listened very attentively.
"Yes."
Jing Yuan nodded with a wry smile: "In order to lure the Medicine King into making a move, I set the most tempting opportunity for them, but I did not expect that the Annihilation Lord of the Annihilation Ancestor had already set his sights on the Immortal Ship... That's why I repeatedly warned everyone at the Alliance meeting to be careful of the forces of destruction. We don't know how many more schemes the other side has that have not yet surfaced, or how many people have been watching the Alliance for a long time."
"Without long-term observation and infiltration, Huanlong would never have been able to find such a good opportunity... I can guarantee that this was not a spur-of-the-moment decision by the other party."
"In short, after Huanlong intervened, the original situation changed. The trap I set for the Medicine King's Secret Technique has now become my own constraint... This is why I believe the reasons given by the Star Core Hunter—neither Fu Qing nor the train crew knew that Luofu at that time was indeed as dangerous as the prophecy predicted."
"As for what happened next... it was pretty much the same as what I presented in the report."
"In this light, it seems that things turned out this way because of bad luck."
After listening to Jing Yuan's bitter and resentful description, even Lian Hua couldn't help but feel a pang of pity in his voice.
After all, according to Jing Yuan, including the later "God War" of destruction and abundance, his plan was actually disrupted by three consecutive "subversive" accidents.
Each time an accident occurred, Jing Yuan remedied it in time. Apart from the plan itself being somewhat radical, he did not make any major mistakes. However, the next accident would always find his weakest point and strike him hard again. Hua Du was a little suspicious that Jing Yuan was suffering some kind of malice from the world.
"There were a series of unexpected events, but my lack of ability was indeed one of the reasons."
Jing Yuan shook his head slightly: "Regarding the matter of Luofu, no matter what decision the Marshal makes, Jing Yuan will obey the arrangement."
"Don't worry, I know what you're worried about. The Ten Kings' Office can't interfere with the appointment and removal of generals."
Hua turned around and walked towards the edge of Lin Yuan.
"I have a general understanding of this incident. In a few months, I will send other generals to Luofu to conduct an official investigation..."
Hua smiled slightly as she glanced at Jing Yuan, who still seemed about to speak.
"Don't worry, it's just a formality. Your plan can continue."
"After all... although the Medicine King's secret technique has been eliminated and Huanlong has been repelled, due to Huanlong's intervention, you still haven't found an opportunity to deal with the Dragon Master in the rush, right?"
Chapter 180 Black Tower (Red Warm): Yuan o Mu is also a five-character god, right?
Although she had been secretly observed for a while by Hua, the Marshal of the Immortal Boat whom she had cosplayed, Ling Mo was unaware of Jing Yuan's experiences in the Lin Yuan Realm.
Moreover... her recent experiences have left her with little time to think about these things.
After all, with the arrival of the Black Tower itself on the Luofu Immortal Ship, Lingmo's daily life suddenly became much richer.
Besides cooperating with Black Tower to test all sorts of strange objects and instruments every day, he also had to provide some physical data from time to time according to Ruan Mei's remote requests, and he also had to chat with Black Tower lady who came to Lin Yuan Realm for "strolls" whenever she had nothing to do. It was quite a fulfilling job.
However, this enrichment soon brought good results. After the Black Tower brought all sorts of strange objects from the space station and tried them one by one, Lingmo's problem soon made a new breakthrough—but the breakthrough was not on the side of balanced destiny that everyone had originally envisioned, but on Ruanmei's side.
After carefully analyzing Lingmo's physical condition and conducting several small tests, Ruan Mei finally sent a communication projection to the Black Tower.
"Hello? Ruan Mei, do you have any results on your end?"
"Well... I can't say the result, but I have some ideas."
Ruan Mei's voice remained as emotionless as ever.
"Then just say it. I'm also connected with Lingmo. Although you can't hear her voice, she can hear you."
"Okay, that's perfect."
Ruan Mei's projection nodded.
"Judging from the current situation, the experiments to remove the destructive destiny from Suzumo's body are not going well. It can be said that Nanuk attaches great importance to Suzumo. If he does not completely abandon this body, Suzumo will have a hard time escaping these marks of destruction."
"...Your next sentence isn't going to be about creating a new body for Lingmo, is it?"
Black Tower's lips twitched slightly: "Let me make this clear first, this option is outright rejected. Due to certain reasons, it's impossible for Lingmo to change her body or undergo any procedures like body slicing."
"Oh, okay, let's try a different approach then, since the underlying principles are the same."
It can only be said that Heita truly deserves to be Ruan Mei's best friend; judging from Ruan Mei's reaction, Heita clearly guessed correctly.
"Instead of trying to get rid of destruction, we might as well maintain the status quo and let destruction and abundance fight each other in Lingmo's body. After all, the mutual repulsion between destruction and abundance is not that intense. The situation in Lingmo's body is entirely because her power is directly infused by the Star Gods, and both of these Star Gods want to 'possess' her."
"The reason why Lingmo cannot leave Jianmu at present is that her body cannot withstand the result of destruction and abundance repelling each other within her body. She needs Jianmu to constantly activate the blessing of abundance within her body, provide energy, and repair her body."
"Therefore, we can take advantage of Lingmo's high adaptability to abundance, and through Jianmu and some other materials, modify Lingmo's body to a degree that can withstand this kind of fateful collision, which can be called 'Powerful Brick Flying'."
"Based on my tests of Lingmo's body, with modifications, Lingmo can maintain her body for five to six minutes without collapsing in the extreme situation of a completely chaotic and conflicting destiny. Moreover, during this time, she can also... beep beep beep—"
Before Ruan Mei could finish speaking, Hei Ta immediately disconnected the communication.
"Huh? Why did the sound stop?"
Lingmo, who had been listening intently from inside the Jianmu tree, sounded somewhat puzzled: "Didn't we just get to the crucial point? The signal from Lin Yuan Realm is bad?"
"...Maybe so, and her plan also has many problems and needs further discussion."
Black Tower gave a few perfunctory replies and then stood up.
"Wait a moment, I'll go check the signal."
"Oh……"
Hearing Lingmo's obedient voice, Heita nodded, her figure flashed a few times, and she left the range of Jianmu. Then, she dialed Ruanmei's communication again.
"What's wrong? Is there a problem on your end?"
"I'm fine, it's your problem."
Black Tower said angrily, "Ruan Mei, I remember I told you before, didn't I? Don't..."
"Shouldn't we use methods that involve changing the body? Or is it that even using the Blessing of Abundance to modify the body won't work?"
