Ruo Ye's voice was hoarse. "Xiao Lin, I know you might feel a little upset, but..."
He never finished those last words, but for the first time, a light called hope appeared in his obscure gaze.
Any drowning person would magnify a single blade of grass infinitely, believing it to be a life-saving rope, so... what if? What if it really was possible...
Lan Mengqin was much more direct. She clutched Lin Yuan's sleeve, her voice trembling. "Really? Is this real...?"
Dong Qianqiu hesitated as if she wanted to speak, but her gaze was just as complicated.
Lin Yuan nodded lightly.
"Let's give it a try. All I can say is, it shouldn't be a big problem."
An unusual radiance and longing shone in Lan Bing's white eyes. If she could live, who would be willing to die?
Logically speaking, ordinary Ice Clan women were born with bloodline defects.
This kind of defect basically only erupted after the age of forty, but she had not even turned forty yet, and this trouble had already appeared on her body time and again.
Every time it acted up, Lan Bing felt as if she were experiencing death.
Lin Yuan sat before the guqin, recalled the melody of High Mountains and Flowing Water, and began to play.
His spiritual power accompanied the gentle melody, filling the entire room.
Lan Bing's heart had originally been seized by a sudden sharp pain, but the moment she heard this melody, her restless, agitated heart actually settled down just like that. It was as if a trickling stream truly flowed through her heart, silently nourishing the defect in her bloodline.
Lan Bing murmured to herself, "This spiritual power... the Spirit Sea Realm... How old is this child?!"
As a Title Douluo, Lan Bing instantly recognized that powerful spiritual power within the strings.
"Relax. Don't reject me. I'll enter your spiritual world through the music."
Immersed in his playing, Lin Yuan spoke softly.
Lan Bing hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she still nodded gently and opened her spiritual world to Lin Yuan without reservation.
Without a doubt, this was a bold attempt.
The reason Lin Yuan helped Ruo Ye, aside from the fact that Ruo Ye had shown him some grace in helping him gain enlightenment, was also because he wanted to see just how far his spiritual power could go when paired with music.
He wanted to know whether he could apply the Voice of the Stars to someone else.
In other words, he wanted to see whether he could turn the Voice of the Stars from passive to active.
If it could become active, then he would truly have a great killing weapon in his hands!
Lin Yuan crossed the long river of spirit and arrived in Lan Bing's spiritual world. Unlike his own raging sea, Lan Bing's spiritual world was like an abyss, so deep its bottom could not be seen.
A Spirit Abyss Realm expert!
A level above the Spirit Sea Realm!
Lin Yuan roamed continuously through this abyss. After wandering for who knew how long, he saw a shattered little island formed from ice crystals.
That small island looked as if it had just suffered an asteroid impact, broken into pieces and giving off a heavy air of death. At the same time, whenever a portion of the island's fragments drifted away, Lan Bing's face turned a shade paler.
Having read the original work, Lin Yuan immediately came up with a guess.
Could this be some kind of manifestation of Lan Bing's bloodline defect?
If that was the case, then piecing these shattered little islands back together should greatly ease Lan Bing's pain.
And at first, that was indeed what Lin Yuan thought.
Since he controlled Gravity, then by the same logic, no matter where he was, he could use it—including in the spiritual sea, and even inside the human body!
After all, strictly speaking, a single blade of grass also had Gravity, and a drop of blood also had Gravity. This was precisely universal gravitation!
I really should've gotten some kind of medical license. I'm practically a medical saint!
But right now, I should count as a support-type soul master, right? In the original work, countless soul masters were asked to look at Lan Bing's bloodline defect, but none of them had any good solution. Bloodlines were simply too mysterious, and no one dared act rashly.
Lin Yuan complained inwardly while raising his hand. A black singularity appeared in his palm.
And now, he was going to perform surgery on it!
"Universal Pull!"
Lin Yuan clasped his hands together.
The small island seemed to possess self-awareness, clearly unwilling to be merged just like that.
In an instant, the earth shook and the mountains swayed. A tsunami suddenly rose, kicking up massive waves several hundred meters high, and the entire spiritual world began to tremble as if warning Lin Yuan, this intruder.
Pretty lively, huh.
Lin Yuan planned to try courtesy before force. He smiled lightly and spoke in a warm voice.
"It's hard to imagine that Aunt Lan Bing is so beautiful, yet you're this ugly. How about it? Want me to help put you together and turn you into a pretty little island?"
The small island seemed to understand the mockery in Lin Yuan's words, and the tsunami surged again.
Waves a thousand meters high, covering the sky, flowed backward and swept toward Lin Yuan. Wherever they passed, dark clouds gathered, and the world instantly dimmed. As far as Lin Yuan could see, everything was gray and black.
That was not the end of it. Lin Yuan suddenly felt a wave of stifling heat.
The next second, a storm followed close behind. One thousand-meter waterspout after another, amid flashing lightning and rumbling thunder, gathered toward Lin Yuan!
It was like a world-ending disaster!
Without a doubt, this was a triple attack: a Title Douluo, Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power, and a bloodline backlash. Touch it, and death was certain!
At best, his mind would collapse; at worst, his consciousness would be wiped out!
At the center, Lin Yuan's robes fluttered, and his eyelids twitched slightly.
I only said one thing. How did he get so worked up while we were talking?
Lin Yuan was not arrogant enough to clash head-on with a Title Douluo. Without the slightest hesitation, he kept rising into the air, but the waterspout and lightning seemed locked onto him, chasing after him nonstop.
When Lin Yuan flickered again, dodging a bolt of lightning as thick as a tree stump, he looked back at the relentless assault and muttered to himself, "Pretty stubborn, aren't you? In that case, I'll just have to let you hear the voice of the stars."
Without hesitation, Lin Yuan pressed his hands together and immediately activated Voice of the Stars in the spiritual world!
That was right. Ever since Ruo Ye's enlightenment, Lin Yuan had already mastered the ability to use Voice of the Stars inside someone else's spiritual world.
However, summoning celestial bodies seemed to be subject to certain restrictions. For example, the current him could only manifest a single planet.
In an instant, a blue planet was born under the operation of Lin Yuan's Voice of the Stars.
"Is this... Earth?"
The moment Earth was manifested, Lin Yuan's face paled, clearly having pushed his spiritual power to its limit. But the instant he saw that planet, there was no fatigue or pain in his eyes, only nostalgia.
I never thought that whenever I mentioned planets, the one I always thought of would be Earth...
Unfortunately, it was all in the past.
Lin Yuan sighed. Then, his gaze instantly became resolute!
The moment Earth appeared, its own gravity completely overshadowed Lin Yuan. Countless bolts of lightning and tsunami waves were forcibly drawn over by that gravity.
And between Lin Yuan and a Title Douluo, there was, after all, an enormous gap.
Under this bombardment, the originally solid Earth actually began to feel on the verge of collapse in an instant!
Without a doubt, Earth could not last five seconds!
