Chapter 218: One Body, Two Souls? The Legendary Perfect Root Bone!
His gaze passed over the two individuals and fell on the geniuses behind them.
ng Changqing raised an eyebrow.
He noticed that standing at the front was a woman, appearing to be about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Her skin was fair as snow, and her face was exquisitely beautiful, rivaling anyone he had encountered before. Perhaps due to her practice of Buddhism, she exuded an ethereal, otherworldly aura, as if untouched by the mundane world.
Though she wore a loose, pale white robe, her graceful figure was still discernible, especially her long legs, which drew attention.
Instinctively, ng Changqing activated his Observation Eye.
Basic Information:
[Na: Yue Qingchan / Yue Youchan].
[Race: Human].
[Cultivation: Ninth Level of Life and Death Realm].
Attribute Information:
[Root Bone: Perfect].
[Comprehension: Supre].
[Techniques: Sutra of the Other Shore: Bodhi Bright Sage Technique (Perfect), Sutra of the Other Shore: Six Styles of Heavenly Buddha (Perfect), and more…].
In an instant, ng Changqing’s pupils contracted.
What he saw in the “Root Bone” section shocked him. It was… a perfect root bone!
Although the system had ntioned that there was a level above first grade, known as perfect, until now, even after participating in the Genius Battle, he had never encountered one. There was only first grade at best.
Over ti, he had almost forgotten that perfect root bones even existed!
Though comprehension was more important in the mid to late stages of cultivation, the root bone was still the foundation, the cornerstone of a towering cultivation achievent. It remained incredibly significant.
And this was not just a first grade root bone, but a perfect one. It signified an even deeper martial potential!
A first grade root bone ant the individual could at least achieve the Marquis Realm, but a perfect root bone could an becoming a king or even stepping into legendary realms!
Additionally, it was said that perfect root bones transcended the typical definition of a root bone and ca with various mysterious abilities!
“My friend,” thought ng Changqing, feeling a surge of excitent.
Coming to the Wild Sea was proving to be the right decision after all. He never expected to encounter a legendary perfect root bone!
But how to add this woman as a friend? That was a question worth pondering.
Forcing her to submit once they entered the Wild Sea?
That seed like the simplest approach, but what if she chose death over surrender? As a top-tier genius, she was bound to have great pride in her bones, so he would need to carefully consider his approach.
Moreover, why are there two nas in her information?
This was the first ti ng Changqing had encountered a situation where one person had two nas in the system panel.
“Could it be an extrely rare case of one body, two souls?” ng Changqing’s eyes flickered with thought.
Such occurrences did exist in the cultivation world, though he wasn’t sure if his guess was correct. Still, it seed likely.
Hmm?
A cold sensation brought ng Changqing back to his senses.
He realized that Yue Qingchan was staring at him with cold eyes.
Perhaps his gaze had lingered on her for too long, and she had noticed.
“Interesting,” ng Changqing thought, unfazed, continuing to look at her openly without averting his gaze.
This made Yue Qingchan’s gaze grow even colder.
Naturally, ng Changqing wasn’t srized by her beauty. Rather, it was her eyes that intrigued him. They seed devoid of any emotion whatsoever.
Could it be the Dao of Emotionlessness?
It was said that in Buddhist cultivation, there was once a popular thod of practicing this path. However, while it was called “emotionless,” in most cases, it was more about severing all emotions.
True emotionlessness was when soone was born without emotions, whereas, as humans, we are naturally born with feelings.
The Dao of Severing Emotions was about cutting off all attachnts and desires, focusing solely on cultivation.
Though such a thod was effective and often produced excellent results, many were bound by emotions, which beca shackles that prevented true freedom.
But just like everything, there were two sides to this. Emotions also played a vital role. For many, it was the driving force behind their cultivation, fueling their desire to protect those they cared about. At crucial monts, emotions could unleash unimaginable power.
Therefore, there was no absolute strength difference between the Dao of Severing Emotions and the Dao of Emotions. It all depended on the individual.
“You rascal, you just left little Kong, and now you’re eyeing soone else?” The elder’s voice rang in his mind, teasing. “And this ti, it’s a nun.”
Cough, cough.
ng Changqing couldn’t help but let out a light cough, surprised that the esteed elder would joke like that.
“This woman is the top genius of this year’s Genius Battle in the Western Desert. Her na is Yue Qingchan, and she practices the Dao of Emotionlessness. She’s extrely powerful,” the elder said, his tone growing serious. “She’s only about five or six years older than you, but her mastery of intent has already reached fifty percent.”
“Fifty percent?” ng Changqing raised an eyebrow.
As expected from the Western Desert, the second-ranked domain among the four regions. Among the younger generation, soone had already reached such an achievent in intent. It was two levels higher than Yu Hongxue...
“Is there anything special about this Yue Qingchan?” ng Changqing asked telepathically.
He mainly wanted to know if she was indeed one body with two souls.
“Are you referring to her physique, bloodline, or talent?” the elder asked.
“Does she have another na?”
“No, she’s just called Yue Qingchan. Over in the Western Desert, she does have a title, though — Buddha Child Yue,” the elder replied.
“Got it,” ng Changqing nodded slightly.
It seed the elder didn’t know much more either. But that was understandable. After all, the Western Desert was a place dominated by faith. Any spies sent there without an exceptionally strong will would end up converted. So, information about the Western Desert was understandably scarce.
With that in mind, ng Changqing shifted his gaze and began scanning the attributes of others in the group.
Unfortunately, while most of the attributes were decent and lived up to the standard of top-tier geniuses, none of them had anything that truly stood out. Nothing worthy of keeping, aside from techniques and martial arts.
Thus, in the Western Desert’s group, only Yue Qingchan was worth adding as a friend.
“You’ll do.” ng Changqing made his selection.
“Also, do you see the last two people in the Western Desert’s group?” the elder suddenly transmitted his voice again.
“I see them,” ng Changqing nodded.
According to the jade slip the elder had given him earlier, those two individuals were geniuses who had been stuck at the Life and Death Realm for twenty or thirty years.
They were now over fifty years old.
Though for soone in the Life and Death Realm, with a lifespan of five or six hundred years, that age was nothing. In so sense, they were still young.
“Back then, both of them had already mastered twenty percent of their true intent. Now, I fear they’ve reached at least eighty percent, if not higher,” the elder warned. “You’ll need to be careful with those two.”
“Understood.” ng Changqing nodded, withdrawing his gaze.
For geniuses, especially the top-tier ones, reaching one hundred percent mastery of true intent over the course of two or three decades was not an insurmountable challenge.
But, as he had said before, ng Changqing had already condensed his Martial Dao Domain. No matter how much true intent these people possessed, it would be aningless.
Once the domain was unleashed, their intents would all shatter on their own.
So, this trip to the Wild Sea shouldn’t present much difficulty, unless the external forces behind these individuals were extraordinary.
