Chapter 73 - 73: 72: Granting Longevity with a Touch of the Head

This sudden voice caused all the nobles of Dai Li present to fall silent.

The Emperor of Dai Li’s face turned pale white.

To the Immortal Teacher, these mortals were basically no different from ants.

What happens when an ant makes a request?

The blood-filled sky over the Capital City of Da Li twenty years ago is the best answer.

They all lowered their heads in succession, sweating profusely, and stealing glances at Li Fan with their peripheral vision.

Inexplicably, the same voice fearlessly repeated again at a high volume: “I implore the Immortal Teacher to save my sister!”

Li Fan looked in the direction of the voice, and it was Su Changyu, a boy in his early teens.

A middle-aged man finally reacted and hurried forward, pushing Su Changyu to kneel on the ground.

“Yu, what nonsense are you spouting!” The middle-aged man, also kneeling on the ground, held down Su Changyu and kowtowed towards Li Fan.

While kowtowing, he pleaded, “The child is ignorant, please forgive him, Immortal Teacher!”

Li Fan fell silent.

All the nobles of Dai Li panicked at this. Led by the Emperor, they also knelt down in succession.

Xiao Heng, who was also kowtowing, spoke with caution: “Respected Immortal

Teacher, please save Su Xiaomei’s life.”

After a long time, Li Fan slowly voiced: “So be it, let me have a look. This will not set a precedent.”

Everyone at the scene heaved a sigh of relief.

Li Fan had initially planned to check on Su Changyu’s critically ill sister anyhow. He just could not consent to it so readily outwardly.

Therefore, he put on a show of reluctance.

A while later, Li Fan met Su Xiaomei in an underground room.

The temperature in the basement was very low and many of the officials who had followed in shivered uncontrollably.

A newborn infant quietly lay on a small jade bed.

Next to the jade bed were piled many ice blocks.

The infant’s body seemed to be extremely hot. She required the constant care of a maidservant who kept crushing ice blocks and applying them to her body to cool her down.

Seeing this abnormal scene, Li Fan squinted.

He stepped forward, his divine consciousness sweeping over Su Xiaomei. His expression instantly turned grave.

“All of you, leave first!”

He ordered coldly.

All the nobles hurriedly exited the basement.

Only Li Fan and Su Xiaomei were left in the room.

Li Fan placed his hand on Su Xiaomei’s burning body, channeled a miniscule amount of spiritual energy into her body.

After it circulated once through her body and returned, Li Fan confirmed something, his face full of shock.

“There is no existence of Immortal-Ordinary Miasma in Su Xiaomei’s body?”

“And, what is this physique? The wisp of spiritual energy I just passed on into her body has actually been amplified after a single round of circulation?” Li Fan directed that strand of spiritual energy to gather at his fingertip.

Its nature was distinctly different from the spiritual energy within his body, it bore a warm sensation.

But it was different from the warmth of the Crimson Flame he had seen before.

It was not the warmth brought by fire, but…

Li Fan analyzed the clump of spiritual energy at his fingertip for a long time before making a general determination. His expression unintentionally became strange.

“Heat brought by rage?

Li Fan peered at Su Xiaomei, who was still asleep, his face revealing an indescribable expression.

“Could this be the rumored Innate Immortal Body, the object of heavenly jealousy?

With the experience of two lives in the Immortal Cultivation World, Li Fan was far from being a clueless rookie.

He knew a thing or two about the common knowledge of the Immortal Cultivation World.

First, regarding Innate Immortal Body.

As everyone in the Immortal Cultivation World knows, mortals carry the Immortal-Ordinary Miasma from birth. If they wish to cultivate, they must first cleanse their bodies of the miasma.

However, when two cultivators procreate, there’s a chance that their offspring might not carry any Immortal -Ordinary Miasma.

Such people are known as those with Innate Immortal Bodies.

Innate Immortal bodies hold an unparalleled affinity for all kinds of techniques and mystical arts.

These individuals also often have very high cultivation talent.

Once combined, these elements make an Innate Immortal body not only capable of cultivating at a terrifying speed but also achieving a natural increase in strength when they use their techniques.

They are far beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.

These individuals are the true chosen children of the heavens.

In the distant lands, the legends of those who form a Gold Core within a mere decade or two, are all products of those with Immortal Bodies.

The story is not as simple when it comes to the Jealousy of the Heavens.

In the Immortal Cultivation World, there are people who have innate divine abilities from birth.

As if naturally possessing three eyes, able to discern falsehood; as if they are born with strange bones, with an almost infinite potential and an almost never depleting life force.

Or they could naturally control elements like water, fire, thunder, electricity, and others.

Those born with innate divine abilities often face their strong abilities drawing the jealousy of the Heavens and, in turn, facing countless trials.

The trials begin right at birth.

If they manage to overcome these trials, they become stronger because of the tribulations.

However, if they fail, they will inevitably meet their demise along with their god -given abilities.

This is both a restriction and a test set by the heavens.

People who possess an innate divine ability might not necessarily cultivate at a fast speed.

However, when it comes to fighting with others, they are frequently invincible within their own realm.

Even more so, there are many individuals with powerful innate divine abilities powerful enough to easily kill cultivators of the same realm. They even possess the strength to engage in battle with cultivators of a higher realm.

Such people within the Immortal Cultivation World are all infamous, and their feats are illustrious.

Both these constitutions are extremely rare, with only one in tens of thousands.

So what managed to catch Li Fan’s attention now?

The two characteristics have appeared simultaneously in a baby!

There’s not a trace of Immortal-Ordinary Miasma in her body, making her an Undoubted Innate Immortal Body.

Although he doesn’t know why an Innate Immortal Body that can only be born from the union of two cultivators has appeared in a world overrun by mortals.

But Li Fan is sure he isn’t mistaken.

And the constant burning power within Su Xiaomei should be her innate divine ability.

Li Fan suspects that her body is related to the emotion “anger”.

As her heart’s wrath intensifies, her own strength likewise multiplies.

Until finally, rage burns her and her enemies to ashes.

And the heat enveloping Su Xiaomei likely results from her innate divine ability going out of control and her raging emotions running rampant.

“Innate Immortal Body and Jealousy of the Heavens, no wonder she encounters such grave trials upon birth.”

“Suffering continuous internal combustion, even if she stays inside an ice vault all day long, Su Xiaomei will not possibly survive to adulthood.”

“No wonder, in the last life, Su Changyu was in such a hurry, becoming an experimental subject for Immortal-Ordinary Miasma to be a cultivator as soon as possible.”

“He probably thought that, becoming an Immortal Teacher like in the legends, he might be able to save his little sister’s life.”

“Such a pity…”

As Li Fan watched Su Xiaomei, the Blue Flame Illusion Spirit in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly woke up from its slumber.

“Unless she met me, even a Golden Core Cultivator might not be able to save her life.”

A light blue figure appeared in front of Li Fan.

It gracefully approached the small body of Su Xiaomei as if enshrouded in a thin layer of fog.

Slowly it raised its hand and placed it on Su Xiaomei’s head.

The scorching heat of the baby’s body slowly dissipated.

The baby’s furrowed brow smoothed, and Su Xiaomei smacked her lips and rolled over in sleep..
