Reincarnation Paradise: The Void Debt Collector

Lin Yi frowned. He turned to Zhuge Qing and Zhuge Gong and asked in a serious tone: "Your grandfather's condition is very serious. How could it develop to this point?" His eyes wandered between the two of them, waiting for their answers.

Zhuge Gong sighed and began to recount the heroic deeds of Zhuge Zhenglong in the past.

During the years of continuous war, the young Zhuge Zhenglong, as the heir of the Zhuge family, was full of passion to serve the country. He resolutely joined the army and vowed to be loyal and perform his duties for the country.

During his days in military uniform, he used the excellent deductive skills inherited from his family to gain foresight time and time again, successfully predicting the movements of the enemy forces hundreds of times.

His accurate predictions were like a beacon on the battlefield, guiding us to victory again and again. His military exploits are outstanding and worthy of admiration.

However, these deductive techniques are not without cost.

When Zhuge Zhenglong was only in his thirties, he had to rely on a wheelchair to walk because his body could not bear the strain due to excessive use of the art of deduction.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country has always remembered Zhuge Zhenglong's outstanding contributions.

Although his injuries were not caused by ordinary diseases but were a punishment from heaven, the country still spared no effort to maintain his life.

In the eyes of the country, Zhuge Zhenglong is a hero of the country, and his contributions and sacrifices deserve the country's eternal remembrance and gratitude.

After listening to Zhuge Gong's detailed explanation, Lin Yi nodded slightly, and he understood the whole story.

Zhuge Zhenglong's situation is similar to that of Ubuyashiki Yoya, but he suffered hidden injuries left by the way of heaven. These hidden injuries are quietly eroding his vitality, causing his body to gradually decay.

In order to save Zhuge Zhenglong, Lin Yi first used his purification skills to help the old man eliminate the negative state in his body.

When the purifying white light gently enveloped Zhuge Zhenglong, he felt an unprecedented sense of relief, as if the shackles that had bound him for so long were suddenly released.

Afterwards, Lin Yi performed healing techniques and began to carefully repair Zhuge Zhenglong's almost collapsed body.

But unfortunately, since Zhuge Zhenglong is already in his eighties, his body functions are naturally declining. Even if Lin Yi's treatment can adjust him to the best condition, it is difficult to significantly extend his life.

But at least, such treatment can make the old man live more comfortably and easily in the rest of his life.

After the treatment, Zhuge Zhenglong fell into a deep sleep in his wheelchair, and his loud snoring showed his peace and relaxation at the moment.

Seeing this scene, Lin Yi quietly reminded others to keep quiet so as not to disturb the old man's rest.

Zhuge Zhenglong had been suffering from illness for a long time. Now that the pain was gone and his mind relaxed, he fell into a sweet dream.

Zhuge Gong looked at his father's sleeping face, feeling deeply moved and tears welling up in his eyes.

He had been looking forward to this moment for so long, finally someone could cure his father's illness.

In order not to disturb his father's rest, he wiped away his tears and stuffed the briefcase into Lin Yi's hands to express his gratitude.

Afterwards, he personally pushed the wheelchair and carefully took his father back to his room to rest, for fear that Zhuge Bai would accidentally wake up the sleeping old man.

This moment of tranquility and serenity is undoubtedly a long-lost warm time for the Zhuge family.

In order to prevent being disturbed again, Lin Yi hung a sign at the door that read "Resting, do not disturb."

After seeing the sign, other people seeking medical treatment were tactful enough not to knock on the door and disturb the other party.

The next day, when Lin Yi came to the arena again, he found that there were many more spectators in wheelchairs in the stands. Obviously, they all came here specifically because they had heard of Lin Yi's medical skills.

This situation made Lin Yi feel very stressed, and he had to run to the VIP seat where Lu Jin was to seek help.

"No, uncle, there are too many people here. You have to help me." Lin Yi said helplessly.

Lu Jin looked at Lin Yi, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Don't look at me, I can't do anything. Many of these people are my close friends, I can't persuade them to go back."

"Old Heavenly Master——"

"Master Lin, I can't help you with this matter."

Seeing that Lu Jin and Zhang Zhiwei had no intention of taking action, Lin Yi sighed and said, forget it, let it be whatever it wants.

This time the competition became unusually easy for Lin Yi, because his opponents all chose to give up after learning that their opponent was Lin Yi.

They knew that it was not a wise move to cause trouble for Lin Yi at this time, not to mention that their elders had also come to the scene, hoping to seek treatment from Lin Yi.

"Zhang Chulan, do you think we should ask Lin Yi to help take a look at Sister Baoer's head? Maybe he can help her restore her memory." Xu Si suggested.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Chulan looked at Feng Baobao who was standing beside him. She was looking at the match on the ring with a blank face, and seemed indifferent to everything around her.

Zhang Chulan pondered for a moment and said, "You can try."

Chapter 117: Fooling Zhang Chulan

Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao made their way through the noisy crowd and finally squeezed to the stand where Lin Yi was.

After the crowds had receded a little, they were able to talk to Lin Yi at close range.

"Hello, Brother Lin, I'm Zhang Chulan, and this is Feng Baobao." Zhang Chulan introduced politely.

Lin Yi nodded, "Baby, I know her. She was the one who escorted me back to China before. We met once."

"Oh, since you know each other, that's easy." Zhang Chulan was obviously relieved.

But he frowned again, revealing deep worry. "Brother Lin, you may not know that Sister Baoer accidentally hit her head during a mission, causing some damage to her memory. So, we would like to ask you to help see if you can treat her."

When saying this, Zhang Chulan's attitude was extremely sincere, even a little humble.

For Zhang Chulan, such attitude and behavior are not unfamiliar.

Under the close surveillance of the alien world, disguise and acting almost became his daily routine.

Lin Yi looked at Zhang Chulan, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.

"Zhang Chulan, you are the descendant of the Eight Wonders Qi Body Origin after all. You don't need to be overly humble in the Tianshi Mansion."

Lin Yi paused and continued, "Sometimes, playing the role of a weak person may be a strategy, but you can't let yourself really sink into being a weak person."

Lin Yi knew in his heart that if Zhang Chulan could receive strict training from a young age like his master Zhang Zhiwei, then his achievements might surpass Zhang Zhiwei and become the new generation of leader of the alien world.

You know, Zhang Chulan experienced a blank period of ten years, during which he never used Qi, let alone had the opportunity to perform the Five Thunder Technique.

But after only one month of training, he was able to fight on equal terms with talented disciples of the Tianshi Mansion like Zhang Lingyu.

This is enough to prove how amazing Zhang Chulan's talent and potential are.

Thinking of Zhang Chulan's grandfather Zhang Huaiyi, Lin Yi couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Zhang Huaiyi was an extremely stubborn man. He was always worried that his identity would bring trouble to the Tianshi Mansion, so he never dared to return to the mountain gate.

If he had chosen to return to the Tianshi Mansion, with Zhang Zhiwei's strength and prestige, who would dare to attack?

"Brother Zhuge, could you and Taoist Lingyu please step aside for a moment? I have something private to talk to Zhang Chulan about alone." Lin Yi stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, and politely made a request to Zhuge Qing and Zhang Lingyu.

Zhuge Qing smiled slightly to show his understanding, and turned and left, giving them enough private space.

Zhang Lingyu was a little hesitant, but thinking of his master's instructions, he finally followed Zhuge Qing and left.

In a small wood far away from the hustle and bustle, Lin Yi, Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao sat together.

The environment here is quiet and there will be almost no disturbance, which is perfect for them to have an in-depth conversation.

Lin Yi looked directly into Zhang Chulan's eyes and said slowly, "Zhang Chulan, I can help Feng Baobao with her medical treatment, but how are you going to pay for it?"

As he spoke, he handed a cigarette to Zhang Chulan.

Zhang Chulan took the cigarette, but did not light it immediately. Instead, he put it on his ear thoughtfully.

"Brother Lin, to be honest, my baby and I are in a very difficult situation right now. If the company hadn't taken us in, we wouldn't even have a stable place to live." Zhang Chulan sighed helplessly, "If you need anything, just tell me and I'll try my best to find it."

After hearing this, Lin Yi smiled softly and shook his head: "Forget it, I said I want the source of Qi, will you give it to me?"

When Zhang Chulan heard this, he was obviously stunned.

He was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Brother Lin, aren't you making things difficult for me?"

"I don't have much obsession with the Eight Great Skills. I collect them just out of interest." Lin Yi explained, and then he took out a notebook from his pocket. This was a gift from Lu Jin, and it recorded the contents of the Tongtian Talisman in detail.

"Tongtian Lu?" Zhang Chulan asked curiously, taking the notebook and flipping through it. "Brother Lin, you already have the Eight Wonders, why don't you learn this?"

Zhang Chulan flipped through the notebook and found that the contents were profound and difficult to understand, and he could not fully comprehend them.

But just some of the superficial knowledge in the notebook benefited Zhang Chulan a lot.

He seemed to have figured out a new way to apply the Five Thunder Method, such as forming talismans out of thin air to attract thunder.

"Eight Unparalleled Skills? Zhang Chulan, it seems you are still obsessed." Lin Yi sighed, looking at Zhang Chulan with a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

Zhang Chulan was a little confused when he heard Lin Yi's words: "Brother Lin, I..."

Zhang Chulan's years of disguised life have made him very sensitive to other people's emotions.

He could clearly feel that what Lin Yi said was not hostile towards him.

His intuition told him that Lin Yi was a trustworthy person.

Zhang Chulan likes to stay with Feng Baobao, because Feng Baobao's heart is pure and innocent, and he can feel a rare tranquility and comfort around her.

As for other people, even close friends like Xu San and Xu Si, Zhang Chulan could sometimes sense their complex emotions and sense of being used.

"Let me ask you, has the old master learned the Eight Wonders?"

Zhang Chulan was silent for a moment, then shook his head: ".No."

"So, if you have learned the Tongtian Talisman now, do you think that with your Qi body source, you can defeat any one of the Ten Lords?" Lin Yi continued to ask.

Zhang Chulan fell into deep thought again, then showed some helplessness: "I'm afraid not."

“See, that’s why I said you were obsessed.” Lin Yi smiled gently and said earnestly: “The Eight Wonders, after all, are just icing on the cake. The strength of a skill is closely related to the strength of the user. In the hands of a strong person, the Eight Wonders can exert earth-shaking power, but in the hands of a weak person, it is just an ordinary skill. A truly strong person’s strength is not only reflected in how many superb skills he has mastered, but also in his own cultivation and state of mind.”

"Many extraordinary people have fallen into a misunderstanding. They excessively pursue powerful skills, but ignore the cultivation itself. This is actually a practice of putting the cart before the horse. The dual cultivation of sex and life is the foundation of our practice. Sex represents our skills and state of mind; life refers to our physical fitness and vitality. Only when both are given equal importance can we achieve true power."

Lin Yi paused, and then continued: "For example, if those strange people in the Tianshi Mansion attacked the old Tianshi together, do you believe it or not, for the old Tianshi, it would only be a matter of a few more palm strikes? Even those masters known as the Ten Masters could not withstand a palm strike from the old Tianshi."

Hearing this, Zhang Chulan's eyes widened, revealing deep shock.

Although he always knew that the old master was very powerful, he didn't expect him to be this powerful.

Chapter 118 Negative Effects of the Eight Wonders

"Why are all the big powers pursuing the dual cultivation of sex and life? Because they are well aware of the survival rules of the alien world: life is the foundation, and sex is supplementary. Without a strong body as a support, no matter how superb the skills are, they are like flowers in the mirror and the moon in the water, appearing illusory and unrealistic, and fragile at the touch of a button." Lin Yi explained.

He looked at Zhang Chulan and continued, "Your talent and potential are both top-notch, Zhang Chulan. But you must remember that the path of cultivation cannot be neglected."

"I have something very important to tell you. I wonder if you are willing to listen."

Zhang Chulan looked at Lin Yi's expression and knew that what he was going to say next might be very important. He nodded and said, "Whether it is possible or not, please go ahead, Brother Lin."

"In that case, I won't hide it any further. Zhang Chulan, do you know what the price is for inheriting the Eight Wonders?"

"Price?" Zhang Chulan was obviously confused by this question.

In his opinion, learning skills does not seem to require any special cost. You just need someone to teach you and then you can learn by yourself.

"It seems you still don't understand, so let me explain it to you in detail." Lin Yi looked at Zhang Chulan and explained, "For example, Fenghou Qimen, do you know it?"

"I've heard of it, but I don't know much about it." Zhang Chulan answered honestly.

"Then do you know what kind of risks you will have to take to inherit Fenghou Qimen?" Lin Yi continued to ask.

Zhang Chulan was silent for a moment, then shook his head.

"Let me tell you," Lin Yi took a deep breath, "All sorcerers have an inner world, but learning Fenghou Qimen will make 99% of sorcerers fall into the inner world and cannot extricate themselves. Have you seen "Inception"? It's almost the same situation."

A trace of solemnity appeared on Zhang Chulan's face, "Is Fenghou Qimen dangerous?" He obviously did not expect that inheriting Fenghou Qimen would have such a great risk.

"Yes, it is very dangerous." Lin Yi said affirmatively, "For example, the Shuangquan Hand, its awakening method requires the user to fall into a state of serious injury and near death, and stimulate it through an extremely strong desire to survive. If it cannot be awakened, it will die in extreme pain. Do you think this is dangerous?"

Zhang Chulan's expression became increasingly solemn, and he obviously realized the seriousness of the problem.

Lin Yi continued, "There is also the Six-Storage Immortal Thief. This skill constructs a special digestive system that can instantly decompose any substance inhaled and convert nutrients into Qi. It sounds attractive, right? However, this ability may tempt the user to steal the vitality of the world and even go to the extreme of cannibalism."

"Brother Lin, I..." Zhang Chulan was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to respond. He was shocked beyond words, as this information was too shocking for him.

He began to reflect, if the other eight great skills all have potential negative effects, then does the source of his own Qi body also hide costs that have not yet been revealed?

"Now you understand why I don't learn Tongtian Lu, right? This thing looks tempting, but it's actually a potential pitfall. Maybe there are some unknown risks hidden in it." Lin Yi spread his hands and explained half-jokingly.

This is just Lin Yi's superficial statement.

In fact, it wasn’t that Lin Yi didn’t want to learn the Tongtian Talisman, but that he simply couldn’t master it.

The real reason why he put so much effort into this was to obtain the source of Qi from Zhang Chulan.

Zhang Chulan is an extremely smart person who is difficult to deceive. It is not easy to fool him.
