The Mental Strengthening Chapter does indeed have drawbacks.

Ren Anran's forgetfulness is not an isolated case. Ren Wuyang also has weaknesses in his personality, and even exhibited corresponding extreme symptoms Ren Yisheng.

This is not because there are inherent flaws in their character, but rather because it was triggered by their cultivation of the Mental Strengthening Chapter.

After Ren Anran drove Zuo Teng out, Ren Wuyang quietly recounted the relevant events.

"In other words, the Mental Strengthening Chapter of cultivation will continuously strengthen the spirit, but this strengthening may also induce some hidden problems," Zhang Xuezhou asked doubtfully.

"That's right, these symptoms are all latent problems, but as the brain and spirit continue to strengthen, these latent problems become manifest," Ren Wuyang nodded and said, "Under normal circumstances, my sister's forgetfulness is just a matter of her brain freezing up, and she suddenly can't remember some things. But for her, everything is amplified. She may forget things that happened months ago, or even extend it to years. It may take a long time for her to remember them, or she may never be able to recall them in her entire life."

"Then why don't I feel like there's anything wrong with me!"

Zhang Xuezhou asked a question, and was then looked at by Ren Wuyang with eyes that seemed to care for a mentally challenged child.

If Zhang Xuezhou's occasional episodes of pseudo-brain death are not considered a symptom of illness, then there's practically nothing wrong with the world.

Zhang Xuezhou's perception of normalcy is only his own. In the eyes of others, Zhang Xuezhou's defects are severe, and he even has to be taken to the medical room for observation from time to time.

"Something's not right. If this cultivation method causes problems, then if I give it to my family to practice, wouldn't that be harming them?" Zhang Xuezhou said.

"The impact of this drawback is always less severe than death," Ren Wuyang said. "Besides, the aftereffects vary from person to person. What if your parents and sister are less affected and can live normal lives?"

"You have a point!"

Zhang Xuezhou pondered the pros and cons, while also thinking about the emperor and empress in the secret realm.

Just as Gene Fighting Technique require the collective effort of many people to advance and evolve, the perfection of a cultivation technique clearly cannot be achieved without the cooperation of various individuals.

Without a certain level of skill, few can surpass the framework of the Mental Strengthening Chapter defined by Ren Yisheng.

At least in the real world, Ren Yisheng was at the forefront, while many others who cultivated Mental Strengthening Chapter could only follow along, lacking the possibility of independent improvement.

From the top of that other world, Zhang Xuezhou felt that the Emperor and Empress were indeed qualified.

These are two top-tier masters of secret realms. Although these people are mysterious and eccentric, they are capable of anything, from flying to disappearing into the earth.

If the Emperor is interested, Zhang Xuezhou feels he should discuss this further with him in the future to see if he can make corrections and improvements, or if he can make amends.

"But you shouldn't spread it recklessly," Ren Wuyang cautioned, "Lest it affect someone's entire life."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I'm not one to keep a secret. If my parents didn't have health problems, I would never have even considered involving them!"

Within Ren Wuyang's knowledge, only the Zhang Household family followed suit and learned from them.

Zhang Xuezhou's sincere assurance made Ren Wuyang nod.

Effective treatments for mental illness are few and far between, and the Mental Strengthening Chapter is Zhang Xuezhou's only hope at the moment, so it's normal for him to use it on his family members as well.

Only by truly upholding the bottom line and engaging in relatively equal exchanges can the Ren Household be free of resentment towards Zhang Xuezhou as a collaborator and allow him to continue learning.

There are some things that Ren Yisheng is not comfortable saying, but Ren Wuyang obviously has to say them for him.

The real problem is that Zhang Xuezhou has too much initiative in many matters. Relying on Hongku's cultivation methods, Zhang Xuezhou has almost completely Ren Yisheng.

In order to expand his network, Ren Yisheng also shared this new path of cultivation.

Since he himself hadn't done a clean job, Ren Yisheng obviously couldn't ask Zhang Xuezhou to do anything in any way.

Ren Wuyang acted as the mouth double, and he was also glad that Zhang Xuezhou was not an ungrateful person and knew how to restrain himself.

In this incident, they encountered risks. Zhang Xuezhou obtained an X446 body repair kit by plucking hairs from the tiger's mouth, while the Ren Household followed closely behind by repurchasing the shares of Save the World Group.

People like Zhang Xuezhou, who only seek short-term gains, can be overlooked, but those who vie for control of the Save the World Group involve numerous disputes.

This inevitably led to a period of turmoil for the Ren Household.

At this moment, Ren Wuyang was trying his best to minimize all possible impacts and eliminate some potential rivals who might attack the Ren Household.

He glanced at Zhang Xuezhou in the medical container several times before turning around and pushing open the door to the medical room.

I feel like I've seen you before!

The patients received extremely advanced medical care, and their severe wounds were largely healed within two days, requiring only minor finishing touches.

People kept leaving the medical room, until only Ren Anran remained.

She stared at the pair of eyes inside the jar, realizing she had forgotten something very important.

"Is there some kind of relationship between us?" Ren Anran asked.

"Sister, what kind of relationship could we possibly have!"

Zhang Xuezhou looked on with a sigh.

He was very glad that he hadn't had any ulterior motives.

Once you get caught up in emotions, it's hard to get out. Zhang Xuezhou felt it would be too tragic if he really developed feelings for Ren Anran, while Ren Anran completely forgot about him.

Age is a wall that blocks the light of love!

He saw Ren Anran leave looking disappointed after hearing the response, and he hummed a little tune.

For young people like him, the ideal romantic partner should be a woman within five years his age. Too young and she's psychologically immature; too old and she seems immature.

Ren Anran's style was unacceptable to Zhang Xuezhou.

The love he wanted wasn't about repayment, nor was it based on a dream; he wanted an equal relationship.

You like me, I like you. Our chance encounter left us with our first memories, and as our relationship deepened, we eventually fell in love.

"That would be perfect!"

He pondered his thoughts on life, but when he returned to his own precarious situation, he felt that his condition was even worse than Ren Anran's.

Ren Anran at most forgot his memories, but this unlucky guy might be gone one day, directly becoming the target of the Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon.

This made Zhang Xuezhou feel that someone like him was incapable of love.

He would never prey on normal women, and who knows when Zhang Xuezhou will be able to resolve his physical problems.

Perhaps thirty, perhaps forty, or perhaps fifty.

At that age, Zhang Xuezhou felt that there were very few women who met his criteria for choosing a partner.

The thought of dating a woman in her forties or fifties when he was in his forties or fifties felt like a nightmare to Zhang Xuezhou.

"We need to go a little faster!"

If he didn't want to die, and didn't want to leave any regrets in his life, Zhang Xuezhou felt he needed to run a little faster.

Only if he runs in the lead can he possibly escape many unspeakable troubles.

This is not only for myself, but also for my family, and more importantly, for a bright future together.

Once he settled down, he began to delve into everything he possessed.

Four thousand and ninety-six acupoints!

Newly acquired techniques will inevitably be tested.

Zhang Xuezhou circulated the Grain Avoidance Instruction, feeling as if the acupoints in his body were constantly opening up like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

This is quite different from his pace of cultivation at the Wondrous Dharma Palace.

Zhang Xuezhou even noticed the perfection in his practice of the Grain Avoidance Instruction.

"It's due to environmental factors!"

He pondered and focused, feeling that being inside the medical tank containing the X446 Body Repair Technology seemed to provide excellent conditions.

Around his body, various fluids that Body Control proportions swirl around him, while hydraulic injections slowly regulate Zhang Xuezhou Zhang Xuezhou's internal circulation, practically opening up every pore on his body.

This is far better than the environment in which he practiced in the open air.

Zhang Xuezhou never expected that the X446 Body Repair Technology medical tank would provide such assistance.

He stared at the ratio data that had rapidly decreased by five percent in the instrument's recording, and then immersed himself in the world of Grain Avoidance Technique.

Given this environment, there's a high probability that his Grain Avoidance Instruction be mastered quickly.

Once he becomes familiar with the many connections to the Grain Avoidance Instruction, he will obviously be able to quickly increase his cultivation speed in the other world, just like an old horse that knows the way well.
