"No, I don't know." The woman in white answered crisply.
"Pfft"
Long Chen was so angry he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood: "You don't know, what's the point of saying it?" "
I only know that this lotus can dispel the power of sin, and it was precisely because I saw it that I ultimately did not kill you."
It belongs to you. You can try to communicate with it, use its power to wear down the power of faith.
Of course, if your faith power belongs to light and kindness, the golden lotus is ineffective, but if it belongs to evil or darkness, it should be able to be dispelled. The woman in white said.
Hearing the woman in white say this, Long Chen's anger gradually faded, and he couldn't help but ask, "This lotus was given to me by an elder, but I've never been able to communicate with it. I don't know about the ... Hmm, do you have any ideas? Long
Chen originally wanted to respectfully address him as senior, but this Ice Soul had no trace of seniority, and he didn't want to suffer losses.
The woman in white didn't care about Long Chen's nickname, shook her head, and said, "It's yours. If you can't communicate with him, it only proves your merit... Luck isn't enough. Anyway, figure it out yourself! When
the woman in white mentioned the word 'merit,' she paused noticeably. Long Chen looked at the golden lotus and didn't notice this detail. Moreover, when she mentioned 'merit,' a trace of nervousness flickered deep in her eyes. Seeing that Long Chen didn't mind, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Bing Po said the lotus could help him dispel the power of faith, which made Long Chen's heart race. If it was true, wouldn't he no longer have to fear this abnormal power anymore?
However, Bing Po seemed to know very little about this golden lotus, so Long Chen could only give it a try.
Long Chen reminded Bing Po again not to speak while he was meditating, or he might turn hostile. After Bing Po nodded, Long Chen finally dared to focus and calm his breath, beginning to communicate with the golden lotus through his soul.
Long Chen's soul appeared beside the golden lotus, sitting cross-legged in the void, facing the lotus, his mind free of distractions, quietly sensing the lotus's fluctuations.
The golden lotus bloomed with golden divine light, illuminating Long Chen. Long Chen seemed to be coated with a layer of gold, making him appear sacred and solemn, lofty and unattainable.
But aside from that, the golden lotus showed no change. It slowly rotated on its own, casting golden divine light across the entire chaotic space.
One hour, two hours, three hours... Time passed bit by bit, but the golden lotus showed no signs of discomfort. Even as Long Chen tried to communicate with it in various ways, it continued to operate on its own, seemingly a lifeless object with no response whatsoever.
One day, two days, three days... Long Chen bathed in golden divine light, his expression serene. At first, he even tried to communicate with it, but later, he forgot his purpose and sat cross-legged opposite the golden lotus. Facing it, Long Chen felt a complete sense of peace, without the slightest ripple.
At that moment, the golden lotus became a pure land; beside it, everything was so peaceful and harmonious that it made people forget all worries.
As the world passed bit by bit, Long Chen had entered a state of self-forgetfulness, forgetting time, space, and even his own purpose.
By the seventh day, the golden lotus moved, slowly unfolding, revealing the golden platform inside, gently supporting Long Chen on it.
At that moment, Bing Po, who was recovering his body, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Long Chen sitting cross-legged on the lotus platform, a look of shock in his eyes.
"Could he really be the one you chose, sir? But his killing intent was so heavy, and inside him lurked a peerless fiend. Sir, are you really going to choose him? She
quietly watched Long Chen, who was shrouded in divine light, her face filled with disbelief.
As Long Chen sat cross-legged on the golden lotus platform, the faith power on his wound faded away at a speed visible to the naked eye, like snowflakes under the blazing sun.
When the power of faith was completely exhausted, the Ice Soul Jade Hand formed seals, and divine radiance scattered down—that was her spiritual power, which she had withdrawn.
The power of the Ice Soul is terrifying. Even with the formidable regenerative abilities of the Dragon Dust Chaos Space, it cannot be effectively removed; it can only be gradually eroded. The power of faith is eliminated, and the power of the Ice Soul is withdrawn.
Long Chen didn't need to do anything himself; the Jianmu Divine Tree in the chaotic space had already begun to automatically help him recover his body. Soon, his body was fully restored to its original state.
"Whoosh."
Suddenly, Long Chen was sent down from the golden lotus platform. He slowly opened his eyes, and within his gaze, a golden lotus pattern slowly faded away.
A smile gradually appeared on Long Chen's face. He seemed to have finally formed a spiritual connection with the golden lotus. Next time, if he wanted to use the lotus for healing, it probably wouldn't have to be so troublesome.
During the period Long Chen was meditating, he remained clear-headed. He knew everything happening around him. At that moment, it was as if he had broken free from the constraints of this world. From an observer's perspective, he looked at himself, at the golden lotus, at the healing Bingpo and Huo Ling'er, at everything around him—thinking of nothing, doing nothing. It was a mysterious state beyond words.
This mysterious state disappeared after leaving the golden lotus with him, as if his soul had been restored into his body, but fully restored brought him endless joy.
Long Chen looked at the slowly rotating golden lotus; it was still the same as before, as if nothing had happened.
"Bing Po, you don't mind calling me that, do you?" Long Chen looked at the woman in white and said.
"I don't mind." Bing Po said calmly.
"How are you now?" How much has it recovered? How is Huo Ling'er doing now? "Long Chen looked at the still-sleeping Huo Ling'er and asked with some concern.
"I'm infusing the power of these Flame Foundations into her body now. She should be fully restored in about ten days.
As for me? That battle back then damaged my origin, and I fell into their hands. Those bastards have tormented me relentlessly for billions of years. My source power is severely damaged, and I want to restore it... Endless and distant. "Ice Soul's eyes flashed with murderous intent, clearly recalling painful memories.
Suddenly, Bing Po looked at Long Chen and said, "Don't worry, what I promised will definitely be fulfilled."
Although it's impossible to fully recover in a short time, my recovery speed won't lag behind your growth rate. She will share all my power to help you fend off powerful enemies. Bing
Po misunderstood Long Chen's meaning, thinking he was worried she was useless. Her tone was clear: no matter how weak I am, I'm still stronger than you. Huo Ling'er can use her power at any time. Long Chen saved her, and he would never lose out.
Long Chen gave a bitter smile. Although he didn't particularly like Bing Po's personality, he hadn't expected anything in return for saving her. However, some things didn't need to be explained.
Long Chen exited the chaotic space and looked around. Several days had passed, and there was no movement nearby. It seemed this group knew they couldn't catch him and simply gave up.
Long Chen put away the array disk, took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and regaining his vigorous spirit, even feeling the urge to go back and fight Yin Changsheng again.
Long Chen checked his direction and sped toward the opposite direction of the scorched earth. After riding for a while, he suddenly heard commotion ahead—someone was locked in a fierce battle.
When Long Chen rushed up and saw the situation clearly, he immediately perked up.
