Chapter 184 Immortality
Chapter 184 Immortality
“Shizhen!!!”
Bai Xi's heart-wrenching screams came to Lan Yin's ears, and she only saw Bai Xi's body being frozen in the air for an instant, at a 45-degree angle that remained unchanged.
Lan Yin knew that it was Bai Xi who used the space spirit to control Shi Zhen's body. Fortunately, after the gunshot, the people who were praying around the square were frightened and scattered, so almost no one paid attention to the small detail that Shi Zhen's body did not fall down.
The night was dark, and all the members of the Divine Religion and Bai Xi were wearing the Divine Religion's black robes.
By the time Bai Xi, Hei Ya and Lan Yin arrived in front of Shi Zhen, no one else could be seen in the central square, and You Feng also took advantage of the chaos to disappear in the square.
Bai Xi used the space spirit to temporarily freeze the space where Bai Xi was wounded.
Lan Yin looked at Shi Zhen's wound which had temporarily stopped bleeding, and recognized that the thing that hurt Shi Zhen was the small silver pistol she gave Shi Zhen, because the bullet of that pistol was very small in diameter, which was completely different from ordinary bullets.
You Feng took the pistol that Shi Zhen gave him and shot Shi Zhen.
You Feng never even thought about volunteering to be a sacrifice!!!
"Damn it, that cunning federal man! We were actually deceived. He never even thought of offering a sacrifice for Shizhen."
Bai Xi cursed in a low voice.
Black Crow's expression turned grim. "But during the day, if you hadn't used your spirit to stop his bullet, it would have already penetrated his temple. Could he have been so accurate in betting that you would save him?"
After all, you are betting your own life.
Bai Xi cursed, "Any normal person who understands what I'm saying will know that a willing sacrifice doesn't just require a willing corpse. He naturally knew we'd save him. And I should have known this earlier. He'd been locked up for ten years. If he truly wanted to die, there must have been a way. But he actually survived and was rescued, which proves he didn't want to die at all! How could he willingly sacrifice himself for someone he'd known for less than a week?"
"All of this is his lies."
Black Crow was silent for a moment, then murmured in defense, "Not all people in the Federation are like this..."
Bai Xi looked up at Hei Ya, and found that the other party looked unhappy, so he lowered his head again.
Lan Yin suddenly thought of a detail: "You Feng's spirit is a healing spirit. In his story, he was born with a deformed body, but after awakening his healing spirit, his body is now complete and intact. His spirit and body were even matched by the Federation's top brass. This shows that his spirit is not an ordinary healing spirit, it must be unique. What kind of healing spirit can make a deformed body whole again?"
"Flesh and blood regeneration!!!"
The voices of Bai Xi and Hei Ya came at the same time.
Lan Yin nodded. When she saw You Feng's spirit regenerating its flesh and blood before, she didn't pay much attention to it. She just thought it was an ordinary self-healing spirit and didn't pay much attention to it. Now she thinks that You Feng's spirit was chosen by the top leaders of the Federation, so it should be more than just flesh and blood regeneration.
"Is it possible that You Feng's regeneration isn't just ordinary regeneration? The bullet lodged in his temple might not have killed him at all."
This is probably the reason why the top leaders of the Federation excluded so many people from choosing You Feng as the compatible type. Otherwise, the spirits of others would not sound as cool as You Feng's healing type.
Because You Feng's spirit body is not just a simple regeneration of flesh and blood, it is more likely to be immortal.
"That explains everything. Why did You Feng shoot himself? Because he was the only one who knew that shooting himself wouldn't kill him. Why did he want his pistol back after we rescued him? Because he suddenly realized that killing himself wouldn't be as effective as killing the beneficiary of the sacrifice. As long as the other person in the blood sacrifice died, there would naturally be no need for a blood sacrifice. Why did he swear so confidently that he was willing to be sacrificed? Because he knew from the beginning that if he resisted, he would have no way of escaping us."
"It turns out that everything was premeditated!"
Bai Xi murmured.
Lan Yin couldn't help but glance at Shi Zhen's pale face and suggested, "We can put You Feng's matter aside for a while. Should we try to save Shi Zhen first?"
Bai Xi shook her head. "Most of the awakened spirits of the Divine Cult come from the sacred tree and are accompanied by companions. While these companions are ugly, they retain a certain degree of self-healing ability like mutant animals. That's why the Divine Cult doesn't have a hospital. Minor injuries don't require treatment, and serious illnesses can't be cured. And Shizhen originally escaped from the Federation's research institute, and her identity is on the Federation's wanted list. If we go to a Federation hospital, we'll be surrounded by Federation troops in less than ten minutes."
"So?" Lan Yin thought about the situation in the Empire. "How about we send them to the Empire?"
Bai Xi still shook his head. "My spatial spirit has limitations. The Empire is too far away, and my spirit won't be able to hold on until I can get her to the Imperial Hospital. If my spirit runs out mid-journey, I won't be able to control her current injuries, and they will only worsen. More importantly, I've never been to the Empire, so I don't know what the situation is like inside."
Lan Yin was also in a dilemma for a moment. Did she have to reveal her spatial spirit in front of Bai Xi and Hei Ya? Did Dai Shizhen go to the empire to see a doctor?
Is it worth it?
At this time, the dull voice of Black Crow was heard.
"Maybe there is another way."
"what?"
Lan Yin and Bai Xi looked at Hei Ya at the same time.
"Since You Feng is immortal, and there are still about two hours until dawn, and the formation has not been destroyed, as long as we capture You Feng before dawn and continue the blood sacrifice ritual, Shi Zhen's injuries will be transferred to You Feng, and You Feng's spirit will also be transferred to Shi Zhen's body. This is the same as our previous plan."
Bai Xi nodded, approving of the plan. She took the lead and said, "I can go find someone, but what about Shi Zhen's wound?"
Shi Zhen's wound still needs her to use the space spirit to control it, but if she doesn't come out to look for people, it will be difficult for Black Crow's spiritual system to find You Feng. Even if they find him, they may not be able to catch up with him. Therefore, there is no way to bring You Feng back to complete the blood sacrifice ceremony.
Black Crow seemed to have thought of this as well, and the three of them fell silent again.
Things seem to have become a dead end.
