Therefore, Ling Xi decisively picked up the Lightning Herrscher Core, intending to absorb it into her body...

"Um?"

However, Ling Xi suddenly realized that she seemed unable to absorb it. No... this is...

Ling Xi sensed a restriction within the Herrscher Core, a kind of code that prevented humans from directly using the Herrscher Core.

"Wipe!"

However, after only a moment of confusion, Ling Xi immediately understood what was going on. Clearly, this must be the trunk of the Imaginary Number Tree... oops, it must be the Imaginary Tree!

According to the Imaginary Tree, humans from Previous Era were unable to directly use the Herrscher Core, but...

As a transmigrator, he could directly use the power of the Herrscher Core, and it was precisely because of this advantage that he was invincible in the Previous Era.

However, when the Imaginary Tree corrected the world, it clearly considered the possibility that it might return, so it also fixed the bug that allowed it to use the cores of Previous Era' Herrscher Core. Therefore...

Ling Xi "..."

This is like going from heaven to hell in an instant...

"Ling Xi, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Ling Xi's expression was rather unpleasant, Cangxuan frowned. Having spent so much time together, Cangxuan could roughly guess Ling Xi's emotions.

"Little Xuan, I..."

Ling Xi opened her right hand, revealing the Herrscher Core in her hand, and said, "It seems I can no longer use the power of the core from the Previous Era..."

"Ah?"

Hearing Ling Xi's words, Cangxuan was also stunned, because... she knew what this meant.

"What happened?"

At this moment, Cangxuan had no choice but to take it seriously, after all, this concerned the safety of himself and his sister.

"Prohibition".

Ling Xi said quietly, "The Imaginary Tree set restrictions, or rather, codes, for the Herrscher Core of the Previous Era. In other words, the Herrscher Core have certain limitations, preventing humans from using them directly and allowing them to be used as Divine Key."

"But weren't you able to use the core's power at will back then?"

Cangxuan was aware of this setting, but based on the situation in the Previous Era, this setting obviously wouldn't work on Ling Xi. But... why is this situation suddenly happening now?

"It was obviously the Imaginary Tree that fixed this bug for me."

Ling Xi took a deep breath and said, "Perhaps, when the Imaginary Tree sent me back to my world, it had already considered the possibility that I might return. Therefore, it also eliminated the possibility that I could use the core of Previous Era's Herrscher Core. Sigh..."

At this point, Ling Xi sighed, "It seems we've been tricked again."

At this moment, Ling Xi was extremely helpless. Because of the Imaginary Tree's actions, he could no longer directly use the Herrscher Core from the Previous Era. Although he didn't need the Herrscher Core's power now, since he was already powerful enough, but...

Cangxuan and Danzhu need it. If he cannot use the power of the Herrscher Core, he cannot enhance their Honkai Energy, and they will not be able to inject elite-level Hypervariable Factor. As a result, their lifespan will be no different from that of normal humans.

"This is troublesome..."

Cangxuan's feelings were also complicated. These past few days, his emotions had been like a rollercoaster, never settling down. He had thought this would finally resolve the issue, but...

Did I not expect it to end in tragedy...?

"Heh, it's alright, Ling Xi."

Cangxuan smiled slightly and said, "Life is short, after all. At least... I feel very content to have spent this life by your side. We... Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

"Thump!"

Ling Xi gave Cangxuan a sharp rap on the head and said irritably, "Alright, let's save the sentimental stuff for later. We're not at our wits' end yet."

"Ugh... Do you have any other ideas?"

Cangxuan looked at Ling Xi with a somewhat aggrieved expression, but there was a glimmer of hope in his eyes.

"Of course, my method is... whoosh..."

Ling Xi took a deep breath and then said righteously, "Ask the Doctor for help!"

Cangxuan "..."

Chapter 521: Elysian Realm, A Reunion After Ten Thousand Years!

"Ask the Doctor for help..."

While rubbing his forehead, Cangxuan asked with some curiosity, "Are you planning to awaken the Doctor?"

"Forget it."

Ling Xi shook her head decisively and said, "Didn't you say from the beginning that the hibernation zone can only be opened from the inside? If you want to open it from the outside, you can only break it open by force. But if you do that, the hibernation system will basically be gone, and..."

Ling Xi looked at Cangxuan with some helplessness and laughed, "If I were to awaken the Doctor for your sake, I think the Doctor would definitely help you, but at the same time, he would also beat me up."

Cangxuan "..."

"No, Ling Xi!"

At this moment, the Klein Puppet suddenly said, "Before the Doctor went into hibernation, he gave me the function of emergency wake-up, so if Ling Xi wants to wake up the Doctor, I can do it, but..."

"After waking him up, I'm not sure if I can put the Doctor back into hibernation..."

"Then let's not."

Ling Xi shook her head again. If she could wake the Doctor without harming him and put Doctor back into hibernation, she would definitely be willing to do Doctor, but...

Since I can put the Doctor into hibernation again, why am I still worrying about this? Why not just put Cangxuan Danzhu into hibernation as well?

Unfortunately, it's impossible.

After all, once the Fifth Divine Key is activated, it cannot be stopped; it can only be terminated. And if you want to restart it after termination, it requires extremely complex preparation and calculation. In the Previous Era, it took Dr. Doctor Mobius and Dr. Vill-V a long time to complete it, and a lot of resources were consumed in the process!

However, even setting aside the fact that Vill-V is no longer around, the sheer amount of resources humans consume today is beyond what they can afford.

Otherwise, why would Cangxuan Danzhu need to worry about this? He could just return to headquarters and hibernate.

"Does Ling Xi mean to activate the Elysian Realm?"

Having said that, Klein understood what Ling Xi meant. Since she wanted to ask the Doctor for help but didn't want to awaken Doctor, then... the only option was to ask the Doctor in the Elysian Realm. After all, activating the Elysian Realm would come at a price, but it was at least acceptable.

"Um."

Ling Xi nodded gently. Now that things had come to this, the only option was to activate the Elysian Realm and ask the Doctor Elysian Realm for help.

Although the Doctor in the Elysian Realm cannot participate in experiments in the real world, Cangxuan himself is a scientific researcher, so with the help of Mobius, Cangxuan can accomplish quite a lot, not to mention there is also the tool person Klein!

"OK."

Klein did not hesitate at all. He silently walked to the core area of the Elysian Realm and began to input parameters to prepare to activate Elysian Realm.

"Dudu..."

In just a moment, the pillar of light in the center of the Elysian Realm lit up again, and then three images appeared in the hall...

"Wow, it's Ling Xi!"

Before Ling Xi could react, a pink figure hugged Ling Xi and said with a happy smile, "Welcome back, Ling Xi."

"Huh? Elysia, you..."

Feeling Elysia's embrace, Ling Xi was utterly astonished. Wasn't Elysian Realm a virtual place? Why was she...?

"Hehe, isn't that amazing? That's the wonder of the Elysian Realm."

Elysia simply smiled, but didn't offer any further explanation.

"Ling Xi ..."

At this moment, another pink figure approached, none other than Sakura.

"Yes, it's been a long time, Sakura."

Ling Xi also greeted Sakura with a smile. Although the Sakura in front of him was just a memory, she was exactly the same as a real person in terms of both vision and touch.

"Uh-huh..."

Sakura didn't say much, just nodded silently. Although she knew she was just a memory, the feeling of being hugged felt very real.

"Ling Xi, what time is it now?"

At this moment, Mobius finally spoke. Compared to the other two, she seemed much calmer because she saw Cangxuan there, so she knew that this place was probably not modern times.

"I'm sorry, Doctor, it's still ancient times."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "It's at least four or five thousand years away from the industrial age we are familiar with. At this point in time, humans haven't even formed nations yet."

"Huh? Does that mean Kevin just left?"

Mobius countered with a question to Ling Xi.

"Um!"

Ling Xi nodded silently, "According to Klein, Kevin has only been gone for two hundred years."

"Two hundred years?"

Immediately, Mobius seemed somewhat surprised and said, "That's not right. If Kevin is going to carry out that plan, then humans now shouldn't be from ancient times, since two hundred years have passed. Could something have happened during that time?"

"Hmm? What does the Doctor mean?"

Ling Xi couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, because judging from Mobius's expression, this seemed to be different from the plan they had agreed upon.

"Hoo... It's nothing."

Mobius rubbed his forehead, unsure of what to say, as the final developments of the Previous Era had already spiraled out of his control.

"By the way, Doctor, where are the others?"

It was then that Ling Xi realized that there were only three figures appearing in the Elysian Realm, while there should have been thirteen people.

"Everyone's busy with their own things."

Mobius shrugged and said, "Aponia seems to be in the Deepest Place, Eden seems to be in her Golden Courtyard. If you want to find them, you'll have to merge your consciousness with that Elysian Realm. But I don't recommend you do that now; it consumes a lot of energy, after all..."

Mobius looked at Ling Xi with a smile and said, "You're activating the Elysian Realm in this era, you must be looking for my help, right? I don't believe you just came here specifically to see us. If that's the case, then I'll be very angry."

Having spent so much time together, how could Mobius not understand Ling Xi? She knew that there wasn't much energy in the Elysian Realm, so she felt that Ling Xi probably didn't activate the Elysian Realm just to see them; there was likely something else going on.

"Hehe..."

Ling Xi paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Actually, my main purpose is to see the Doctor. After all, a day apart feels like three autumns. We haven't seen each other for 50,000 years, which is hundreds of millions of years. Of course, I also want to ask the Doctor for a small favor."

"Cut..."

Mobius smirked and said with a wicked grin, "Then tell me, what exactly is this little favor you want me to do?"

At this moment, Elysia and Sakura sensibly stepped aside. After all, they knew that the energy in the Elysian Realm was limited, so their awakening time wouldn't be long. Therefore...

Let them talk about serious matters first.

"Wow, Cangxuan, long time no see."

Unable to bother Ling Xi any longer, Elysia decisively chose to wreak havoc on Cangxuan...

Cangxuan: "..." Don't come any closer!

Chapter 522: The Doctor's Solution!

"I never expected something like this to happen..."

Soon, Mobius learned the general outline of what had happened from Ling Xi. "It seems that the Imaginary Tree really did a flawless job this time, leaving us no loopholes at all."

"Yes."

Ling Xi sighed helplessly and said, "So I can't use the core's power right now, and that means Cangxuan and Danzhu Zhu..."

"Hmph, what does it have to do with me?"

Mobius curled his lip and snorted, "I haven't settled the score with you for seeing two other girls behind my back yet."

"Uh... hehe."

Ling Xi gently hugged Mobius and said with a flattering smile, "Don't be like that, Doctor. After all, they are both members of our lab. Besides, I'm doing this so that they can survive. After all, they are indispensable members of our lab, aren't they?"

"Heh, you just lust after their bodies, you're despicable."

Mobius sneered. She was this guy's wife; how could she not know this bastard?
