Chapter 414 411- The Truth (6)
"Border Guardian!"
Shi Lei Hu seeing this was shocked.
"It's fine, it's just a finger."
Old man South Border said as he watched the dark flames dissipate. His finger had long burnt to ash.
"These flames…"
Old man South Border frowned.
'It's quite dangerous. For a brief moment when it covered my finger even the Heavenly Laws were burning.'
"Senior disciple brother!"
While old man South Border was in thought, he heard Jun's voice echoing out on the ship. He then remembered he had accidentally allowed Yang Su the fall.
On the ship, Jun move to catch Yang Su's falling body but he was still quite weak. Fei Yin was the one who moved instead to catch him, however, a shadow suddenly sped past him to grab Yang Su before he could.
Landing beside the others, Fei Yin watched as this person landed with Yang Su in their arms.
Everyone frowned at this person.
"Who are you?! Let go of him!"
"Mu Fan, wait!"
Mu Fan immediately became defensive and step forward. However, Jun who was being held up by Lihua stopped him.
"What? Who is he?"
Mu Fan asked as he turned to Jun.
"Just wait, everyone too."
Hearing Jun, everyone slowly calmed down. They didn't know who this person was, but since Jun who was the most worried about Yang Su said to wait then this person must be harmless.
While everyone waited, they watched as this person who was covering his appearance with a cloak placed Yang Su to lay on the ground.
Tai's eyes flickered when this person began patting Yang Su's head, but that light immediately faded away when the person started caressing his cheek. But soon Tai and everyone's faces turn weird as this wasn't just a simple caress. It was something in the way how this person was doing it while staring down at Yang Su.
"T-This guy, what's his deal? Are you sure this is alright?"
Mu Fan seeing how this dude was rubbing Yang Su's face with his coarse hand started to become uncomfortable.
But the person didn't continue for long, he soon got up and turned to walk away.
"Senior disciple brother still cares about you. He just doesn't show it."
The cloaked person paused upon hearing Jun but continued walking towards the rooms on the ships shortly after.
"Jun, just who was that?"
Tai asked.
While watching as his person disappeared in the crowd of disciples who were finally waking up, Jun softly muttered.
"Its senior sister X-"
Jun didn't get to finish that, however, because Yang Su suddenly cried out in agony. His veins were seen bulging from his forehead and his eyes were opened wide, but they weren't focused on anything.
Jun left Lihua's hold and hurriedly knelt down next to Yang Su.
With his palms placed on Yang Su's chest and abdomen, Jun sent his perception inside his body.
Immediately, Jun saw that Yang Su's Fire Divine Platform was dim and the Fire Qi inside was completely exhausted.
However, a portion of the other Divine Platforms was contaminated with the Fire Qi. Like a red dye being poured in water, the Fire Qi was slowly corrupting the other Divine Platforms.
Jun didn't hesitate to call upon his Karma ability to drive these corrupted spots out and back into the Fire Qi Divine Platform to restore balance to Yang Su's elements.
However, like a toddler that refused to eat vegetables, the Fire Qi Divine Platform refused to accept back its Fire Qi. It refused to swallow what it had already spat out.
"Damn it."
Jun cursed and was about to put his Kun Peng legacy into overdrive like before, but Fang Chen grabbed onto his arm.
"Jun, you-"
Jun opened his eyes and stubbornly interjected.
"This isn't your decision brother Chen. Senior disciple brother is no different than a real brother to me. To me who was an orphan that was saved by Master, you guys are my closes friends, but Master and senior disciple brother are the closes thing I have to blood relatives. I already thought I lost Master, I can't lose my brother."
Hearing this, Fang Chen felt that he had no right to stop Jun, so he reluctantly let go of his arm.
Lihua and the others were the same, they didn't have the heart to stop Jun and he'd never forgive them if they did.
Jun closed his eyes once again and released a deep breath. He was about to overclock his legacy power to boost his karma ability, but the voice of old man South Border interrupted him.
"No need to do that child, just continue what you've been doing."
With his senses inside Yang Su's body, Jun saw several golden chains appear and wrap around his Fire Qi Divine Platform to restrain it.
Jun didn't hesitate and he began forcing that corrupted Fire Qi residue from the other Divine Platforms.
However, the process was slow as Jun's ability was limited.
'Child, is there a method that was used to suppress this process before?'
Jun heard old man South Border's question in his head and he responded.
'Yes senior, disciple brother has a cultivation method that can suppress his Fire Qi.'
In the outside world, old man South Border walked over to Yang Su before placing a finger on his forehead. After a moment, old man South Border found Yang Su's consciousness and pulled it forward.
Yang Su suddenly released a groan before his eyes cracked open.
The first thing he saw was Jun and the others standing over him.
"Wha-"
"Child, before anything you need to start circulating your cultivation method."
Yang Su hearing this voice shifted his head slightly to look at old man South Border. After glancing at him Yang Su turn to look at Jun for a moment before he closed his and began circulating his cultivation method.
As he did, the Fire Qi residue inside his other Divine Platforms weakened enough for Jun to start expelling them.
After a couple of minutes to an hour, a majority of the Fire Qi was expelled. At this point, Yang Su called upon the Calamity Lightning from his Lightning Qi Divine Platform and completely forced all the Fire Qi back into his Fire Qi Divine Platform.
The golden chains from old man South Border fully wrapped around his Fire Qi Divine Platform. Even as Fire Qi slowly began accumulating inside it, the Fire Qi was blocked by the golden chains from coming out.
Yang Su seeing his Fire Qi Divine Platform accumulating Fire Qi beyond his control, felt like he was watching a timer go down for another disaster to occur.
In the outside world, Yang Su suddenly felt something like water hit his face. Opening his eyes, he came face-to-face with Jun who was crying up a river.
"Elder brother, I thought...I seriously thought I would never see you again."
Jun's address for Yang Su turned to 'elder brother' from 'senior disciple brother.'
It was unlike the elder brother Fei Yin used to address Yang Su. When he heard it, Yang Su remembered how he would call Li Shen elder brother in the past.
Yang Su couldn't help but smile and raised his hand to pat Jun's head.
"I'm sorry I made go through that, I promise I'll work harder to never let you worry so much again."
Jun used his sleeves to wipe his tears while he nodded his head.
Tai, Li Wen, Fang Chen, Mu Fan, Fei Yin, and Lihua all collectively felt a heavy pressure on their chests lifted.
After comforting Jun, Yang Su turned to old man South Border and said.
"Senior, thank yo-"
Yang Su suddenly had to stop because he saw that old man South Border was staring at him with a solemn expression.
"Senior, is something wrong?"
Everyone turned to old man South Border when they heard Yang Su.
'Child, do you know the truth about your dantian?'
Yang Su heard old man South Border's voice in his head and he immediately stiffen but quickly responded.
'Elder, I apologize but I request that you don't ask me about my cultivation, I am unable to tell you.'
Hearing his response, old man South Border shook his head.
'It seems like you do not know. Child, your dantian was created in such a way that it could be harvested after your comprehension of the elements reach a certain level.'
Yang Su hearing this looked at Old man South Border with confusion, but old man South Border only continued.
'Something like this means whoever transformed your dantian is using you to increase their comprehension, it's called a Comprehension Cauldron. But I have never heard of this kind of method before to use a person's dantian. It's truly too cruel, even if I wanted to help with this I can't. The only way to reverse this is to destroy your dantian, but you'd lose the ability to cultivate. Child, this is something for you to choose, but just know that the more you cultivate the closer the time will come when the entity who did this to you will take it away.'
After saying that, old man South Border looked at Yang Su whose expression had turned from confusion to just a blank look.
'It seems this news is too big a blow, maybe I should have said nothing.'
Old man South Border thought back on the entity's warning, to stay away from Yang Su.
'He at least has a right to know, no matter how painful it is.'
For old man South Border, his assumption was that it was the entity that had taken over Yang Su's body who was responsible for using him as Comprehension Cauldron. He thought after saying this much Yang Su would know it was that entity, but little did old man South Border know that he was completely wrong. He missed the mark entirely.
It was Li Shen that had created Yang Su's dantian, not that entity.
'This isn't true, right Master?'
