Chapter 74 That's Mine
Chapter 74 That's Mine
"Horizontal boat!"
Looking at his increasingly weathered eldest disciple, Liu Zhan couldn't help but sigh softly, "These past few days, you've worked tirelessly day and night for me. You've suffered so much!"
"Teacher, I am not tired, it's just a pity for Junior Brother Feng."
Gu Hengzhou glanced at Feng Qiuchi's direction, then quickly turned his gaze back.
Supported by his eldest disciple, Liu Zhan's gaze lingered on Feng Qiuchi, who was still gritting his teeth and persevering despite being unconscious, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.
"I know you want to give me your body, but your Junior Brother Feng's body is the most suitable, the most compatible with me, and the easiest for me to merge with!"
"He's the most suitable in terms of both physique and status. Choosing him was a last resort!"
At this point, Liu Zhan couldn't help but sigh softly, "But I still feel uneasy. Hengzhou, tell me, were what I did right or wrong?"
"Teacher, you did the right thing. The people still need you!" Holding Liu Zhan's somewhat thin hand tightly, Gu Hengzhou quickly comforted him, as if to encourage him.
"Teacher, we've prepared for so long, and now we're just one last step. You absolutely mustn't waver!"
"The death of Feng Qiuchi, in exchange for the new students of the teachers, in exchange for the new lives of the people of the world, is absolutely worthwhile!"
"I understand!" After a brief sigh, Liu Zhan put away his pity.
"Is your preparation done properly?"
"Teacher, rest assured, over the years I have traveled to various places and those who have seized the people's land, oppressed the good and kind, and committed heinous crimes have all been suppressed by you with an iron fist."
"Those rebels numbered in the tens of thousands; their blood dissolved here, more than enough to completely cleanse Feng Qiuchi's consciousness!"
"Once his consciousness has completely faded, you can proceed to the next step, teacher!"
"Alright!" He nodded, looking at the blood-red giant wave, a hint of reluctance appearing on his face. "Using this method still makes me uneasy!"
"Teacher, things have come to this point, you must persevere and not soften your heart!" Seeing the pity on Liu Zhan's face, Gu Hengzhou was afraid that he would change his mind.
"I stumbled upon this soul-shifting technique by chance, and it was I who insisted on performing it."
"Now that it's all done, and they're dead, it's their blessing to become nourishment for the teacher's rebirth. They died a worthy death!"
"Teacher, all the sins are on my own shoulders, and have nothing to do with you!"
Kneeling abruptly beside Liu Zhan, Gu Hengzhou continued to comfort him, "Teacher, many of our fellow disciples are waiting for you to take charge again!"
"Once you are reborn, your students and friends will do everything in their power to help you. Teacher, you will soon be able to realize your ambitions and benefit all people."
"For the sake of the people, please, teacher, do not waver."
"Sigh!" Liu Zhan sighed heavily again, then said softly, "I understand, you can get up now."
Shen Che watched silently, saying nothing. From beginning to end, he only saw one word: pretense!
The deaths of tens of thousands of people create such a wave of blood, which washes away the consciousness of others.
Under the guise of serving the world, they do things for their own selfish gain. The once passionate scholar has completely changed; can power truly corrupt people so deeply?
What else could it be that his eldest disciple, Gu Hengzhou, saw it by accident? If Liu Zhan didn't want you to see it, how could you possibly have seen it?
His gaze was fixed on Liu Zhan. Was it a soul-shifting technique?
Back then, the Shi family, where Shi Lichou lived, had a secret technique for transferring souls, but it couldn't transfer all consciousness away.
Could it be that Liu Zhan figured it out on his own, or that it existed in his original world?
A new question arose in Shen Che's mind. If it involved soul transfer, was Liu Zhan still himself? Would his next step be to transfer all his internal energy there?
In an instant, Shen Che realized a possibility, and his expression immediately turned much uglier.
If that's the case, then Liu Zhan wouldn't be himself anymore, and would his investment be wasted?
Is this old man trying to live on in this way, and perhaps even break his promise?
Even if the soul transfer doesn't change Liu Zhan's identity as an investor, his power will inevitably be greatly depleted during the transfer process. It's even possible that he might drop from the Grandmaster realm to the Innate realm, or even fall below the Innate realm altogether.
More likely, this soul transfer is like transferring assets, and it has absolutely nothing to do with the previous company.
If you invest in the original company, and the company is now just an empty shell, then your investment is naturally wasted.
Could it really be like that? Could I really gamble on it? Absolutely not!
You still want to play tricks on me? I won't lose a single penny of my share!
"That's about enough!" Seeing that Feng Qiuchi's eyes had completely lost their luster and he was standing there like a puppet, Gu Hengzhou rushed forward to comfort him.
"Master, things have come to this; my junior brother is gone forever. Please, Master, immediately use the secret technique to transfer his soul into his body!"
"Alright then!" Liu Zhan nodded emphatically, then stepped forward and stroked Feng Qiuchi's forehead with both hands.
"Secret Technique: Soul Transference!"
Points of light flickered from his body, quickly enveloping the two of them. Gradually, the points of light turned into dazzling light, and it seemed as if some strange power began to connect the two figures.
The two of them were even involuntarily lifted into the air, and the light completely enveloped them.
For a moment, Liu Zhan felt a sense of weightlessness, as if he were falling from a great height.
He knew he was already halfway there. Now came the main event. Taking a deep breath, he prepared to complete the soul transfer process in one go.
But at that moment, Liu Zhan suddenly felt that all his power, all his knowledge, including the secret techniques and medical skills he had painstakingly studied for many years, had all disappeared.
He couldn't remember anything in his mind. Those profound martial arts and magical secret techniques seemed like something he had never encountered before, as if it were all just a dream.
The light vanished instantly, and he plummeted heavily from mid-air.
I felt a sharp pain all over my body from the fall, and I even felt a crisp sound in my forearm. Not only did my arm seem powerless, but the pain was also more pronounced than in other parts of my body.
In the past, let alone a drop of only half a meter, even a drop of three to five meters wouldn't have made him feel much.
Without the nourishment and support of internal energy, his aged body felt heavier than ever before, as if something was pressing down on him.
The feeling of aging and decay emanating from my body has never been so clear as today.
"Failed? How could it have failed?" Gu Hengzhou's heart tightened the moment he saw his teacher fall.
Seeing Liu Zhan's slightly aged body struggling to get up from the ground, he knew that his teacher must have failed, otherwise it would have been the teacher who had taken over Feng Qiuchi's body who got up.
"Teacher!" He was about to go up and help him up, but Liu Zhan rudely pushed him away.
The force that pushed him away was very small, almost negligible, and significantly different from the force the teacher had used before.
Looking up and scanning his surroundings, Liu Zhan's expression twisted slightly. "Was it you? You're here, aren't you? You took all my power, didn't you?"
"Give me back my power, it's mine, mine!"
