Death glare!
Hand-crushing system (Requesting monthly votes)_3 Chen Dengming pondered thoughtfully, recalling the sudden realization that had flashed across Bai Shouhong’s eyes before, he too had perceived a trace of sentiment.
He nodded and said, “It seems that the Divine Spirit of my second senior brother had actually awakened a long time ago, but at that time it was likely a subconscious awakening due to sensing danger.
Over the years, his reason for being frivolous and unconcerned with learning, and not diligently practicing cultivation, was mostly influenced by that moment of subconscious awakening back then, as a form of self-protection.
...
Since he has already become aware of the danger, our current revelation of the danger won’t cause a big impact on his Divine Spirit, hence the low degree of integration…”
“So, what should we do now?”
Chen Dengming’s eyes flashed with a bold and novel idea, calmly transmitting his thoughts, “I have a method.
It appears that the Divine Spirit of the true Princely Heir, Bai Shouhong, is not completely unresponsive, but the chief culprit has yet to be brought to justice.
Luo Huatian controls the throne; he cannot become the emperor himself and can only share the benefits, he is not a direct vested interest party.”
Su Yanyan said, “You mean, we still have to pursue the emperor’s crimes?
That’s easy to do.
But what if after doing this, the second senior brother still hasn’t awakened?
Given the current situation, that’s a very real possibility.”
“That’s where my method comes in,” Chen Dengming smiled.
“Actually, with the second senior brother’s current high-grade Spiritual Root talent, as long as he is willing to practice diligently, the speed of cultivation will not be slow, and awakening is only a matter of time.
We just need him not to waste time and to practice diligently.
Even if the assimilation with the Divine Spirit is slow, and awakening is late, it won’t be a hindrance.”
Su Yanyan was astonished, “Are you saying that the second senior brother will sense the absence of danger subconsciously again, and then he will practice diligently by himself?
I don’t think that’s too reliable.
Once a person gets used to a life of luxury and idleness without learning anything, without a complete awakening, it’s very difficult to change habits, and they might even become more indulgent.”
“Subconscious mind is just one of the factors.”
Chen Dengming shook his head, “Just watch me, I will make the second senior brother become diligent on his own.
However, after pursuing the emperor’s crimes, and looking after the second senior brother for a while, I will have to trouble you, senior sister.”
“If you can solve it properly, senior sister will naturally follow your lead.”
Their conversation was a spiritual exchange, faster than any verbal communication.
To outsiders, these two mysterious and powerful Immortals merely exchanged a few glances and did not engage in any verbal exchange.
Soon after, Chen Dengming’s eyes suddenly shone brightly, like two streaks of lightning, as he made eye contact with the Princely Heir Bai Shouhong.
Bai Shouhong, plump in figure, suddenly shuddered, only to feel that the bright eyes opposite him were flickering with a strange light, which stirred a strong fluctuation in his heart, as if he had suddenly touched an electrical current, sending tremors through his spirit, beyond his control.
His gaze became bewildered, as if he had fallen into a misty dream world.
In that world, he had traveled through the skies and burrowed through the earth, laughing proudly at the heavens, like an Immortal, determined to pursue eternal life, so carefree and untroubled.
Compared to immortality, the various worldly authorities, wealth, and beauties seemed to gradually become insignificant.
In his Spirit, it was as though an odd gate of the heart had been touched, as if a piece of soft feather gently lifted the eyes of his spirit.
For a moment, joy, anger, sorrow, pleasure, grief, bitterness, anxiety, color, sound, fragrance, taste, touch, and the law—emotions and desires—came flooding in, filling his Heart Lake with ripples.
…
One day later.
Inside the chamber of the Princely Heir of King Zhongyong’s Mansion, Bai Shouhong felt as if he had been having a very long dream of becoming an Immortal.
As he turned over, he suddenly woke from the dream, his hefty body nearly tumbling off the bed.
Realizing it was just a pie in the sky dream, he couldn’t help but laugh dumbly, and also felt an immense sense of loss.
Thinking about having to continue the life of a frivolous Princely Heir and being unable to proudly defy the heavens and seek immortality like in his dream, he unexpectedly felt little anticipation, only a bland and tasteless feeling.
But the thought of the pain of diligent cultivation also left him without the motivation to put in the effort to practice.
Just then, he froze, blinking twice, and suddenly sat up from his bed, staring in surprise at a transparent square that had appeared before him.
“Qi Cultivation level three cultivator [Bai Shouhong]
Lifespan: 21/???
Spiritual Root: Wood (high-grade)
Daoism: “Wood Escape Skill” (beginner 19/100), “Blue Wood Skill” (third layer 93/300), “Wood Wall Skill” (beginner 29/100), “Wood Arrow Skill” (beginner 11/100)…
Main mission: Cultivate to Qi Cultivation level four within one month.
Reward for success: Lifespan increased by 5 years;
Punishment for failure: A tour of the Nether Spring for three months.
Countdown: Twenty-nine days and eleven hours…”
Bai Shouhong read every word and was dumbfounded.
What was this thing?
This punishment of a tour in the Nether Spring for three months, it’s a joke, right?
Outside in the sky of King’s Mansion, Su Yanyan frowned as she observed the condition of Bai Shouhong inside the chamber, then retracted her gaze toward Chen Dengming.
“Brother Chen, this method of yours…
Are you sure it will work?”
Chen Dengming laughed heartily, arms crossed over his chest, “I think it will definitely work.
If all else fails, I’ll just send him down to the Nether Spring for a few months to experience a transformation and come back.
Surely, he will cherish his cultivation time then.”
As he spoke, he stroked his chin, quite pleased with this masterpiece.
The foolish Princely Heir, reborn in the body with a Nascent Soul master, and accompanied by a system he had crafted to supervise him—if this couldn’t bring about an awakening and turnaround, then he indeed was beyond hope…
