Chapter 619: Accidental Harm
🕑 Added 2024-11-21 11:24:48 +0000 UTCThe power of the detection token was incredibly gentle, a testament to the skill with which Zhuge Ming personally crafted it, given Lin Di's delicate condition. The quality of this particular detection token was exceptionally high.
"Amazing... This investigative power is as soft as a spring breeze, so delicate. Even though it's coursing through Master’s entire body, it doesn’t cause any harm or disruption to his current state, yet it reveals everything we need to know," Lin Qing, the infant, exclaimed, clearly impressed by the delicate nature of the detection token’s abilities.
Lin Qian was not surprised. With Zhuge Ming personally overseeing the process, there was no way the result would be anything short of extraordinary.
By Lin Di's bedside, Yun Yunyan gently grasped her husband's right hand, her eyes filled with deep affection. She held on tightly, her love for him evident in her gaze.
Lin Qian watched his parents, a smile forming on his lips. His father and mother were truly a pair who had endured life and death together.
In the Heavenly Craftsmen Department, Zhuge Ming personally oversaw the process. Given that the subject of the investigation was the Supreme Emperor, extreme caution was necessary.
At the same time, Lin Qing carefully observed the situation inside his master’s body as the soft probing power delicately flowed through every inch of him.
The longer the detection continued, the more astonished Lin Qing became.
Investigation itself was an art form, and the investigative energy coming from the metal detection token was a masterpiece of precision. As it traveled through the master’s body, it did so with such meticulous care that it avoided every bit of soul force and energy circulation within.
“How’s the situation?” After what felt like an eternity, Lin Qian inquired with Zhuge Ming back in the Mystic Star.
Even though it had only been a short time since the investigation began, Lin Qian trusted his prime minister’s abilities. He was confident that Zhuge Ming would have found the answer by now.
“Your Majesty, the current state of the Supreme Emperor is rather complicated,” Zhuge Ming’s voice echoed in Lin Qian’s mind, bringing a smile to his face.
Zhuge Ming’s words indicated that there were results. Whenever Zhuge Ming described something as complicated, it meant that there was already something to report.
Lin Qian stepped forward, removing the detection token from his father’s body. Lin Qing looked at him, surprised. “What? Already finished?”
“Of course. My people work quickly and have never let me down,” Lin Qian responded with a lighthearted smile. “Now, don’t disturb me,” he added, gesturing for silence.
Lin Qian continued to listen as Zhuge Ming reported the findings.
“The Supreme Emperor’s soul is indeed incredibly powerful, but it’s also severely damaged. To be precise, it’s incomplete. In his dantian, there is a spear’s yuan device heart, which is emitting remnants of soul essence that are slowly repairing the Supreme Emperor’s soul."
“The soul essence spilling from the yuan device heart is identical to the Supreme Emperor’s, indicating they are one and the same. From this, I deduce that the spirit’s explanation was correct—the Supreme Emperor has indeed fallen once before, but he didn’t truly die."
“It seems that when the Supreme Emperor fell, his shattered soul was collected and sealed inside the spirit, along with his cultivation and strength. Whoever was responsible for this is extremely powerful, with methods that reach beyond ordinary comprehension.”
Intrigued, Lin Qian asked, “And how does this mysterious expert compare to you, Prime Minister?”
Zhuge Ming’s response was filled with pride and confidence. “Even though I am not a combat expert, I could destroy this individual with a single strike. If I had been the one to seal the Supreme Emperor, he would have regained his full strength in his first awakening.”
Lin Qian chuckled, pleased with his prime minister’s confidence. “Impressive, that’s exactly what I expect from my Prime Minister. Now, is there any way to improve the seal on my father?”
Zhuge Ming’s tone became more serious as he explained, “Here lies the real issue. The current method used to seal the Supreme Emperor is crude. While it allows him to recover, it’s only a one-time opportunity because it relies on the unique properties of the Reincarnation Fruit. Without this fruit, rebirth would have been impossible.”
“I can’t alter the seal itself, but I can enhance it. I can ensure that during future awakenings, the Supreme Emperor won’t lose consciousness, and he will be able to recover more of his power each time. But we will need Hua Shengyi’s help to create a special potion to repair the seal and stimulate his latent strength.”
Satisfied with the explanation, Lin Qian nodded. “Very well, get started on the potion immediately.”
Lin Qian then opened his eyes, returning to the present. Yun Yunyan, still sitting by Lin Di’s bedside, looked up at him and asked, “Qian’er, how is it?”
“Don’t worry, Mother. Father is fine. The seal on his former life’s strength and talents was too rough. My Prime Minister and Hua Sheng will create a potion to repair the seal and bring out even more of Father’s potential.”
“Also, when Father awakens in the future, he won’t lose consciousness anymore.”
“Rough seal? Repair?” Lin Qing and Yuan Xiang, who remained in their ethereal forms, both widened their eyes in disbelief.
“By the way, who was the idiot that sealed Father’s past abilities in such a crude manner? According to my Prime Minister, it’s hardly worth mentioning,” Lin Qian remarked, casting a glance at the two spirits. “If it wasn’t for that, Father wouldn’t have to pass out each time he awakens.”
After a long silence, Lin Qing stared at Lin Qian, frowning. “Are you sure this seal can really be fixed? You’re not just making things up, are you?”
Lin Qian chuckled and grabbed Lin Qing’s chubby little cheeks. “Little brat, if I say it can be fixed, then it can. Don’t question me.”
“Huaxia Empire is the best!”
“Oh, and who exactly is this moron who gave my father such a crude seal?”
With his cheeks puffed out from Lin Qian’s grip, Lin Qing mumbled, “Your... Your grandfather…”
Yuan Xiang sighed, stepping in. “The one who placed the seal on your father was none other than your grandfather.”
“...”
With a loud thud, Lin Qing fell flat onto the floor.
