Chapter 43: The Enthusiastic Brother Who Accomplishes His Mission
Luan Qingyu attacked suddenly. The Nascent Soul stage gave her extremely excellent physical attributes, so that her speed was incredibly fast, and her figure left an afterimage.
How could Wen Rui's mortal body react fast enough to keep up with the attack, and he was frightened by the pounce. Luan Qingyu in mid-air clearly saw his face full of shock, his mouth wide open, and his embarrassed look of being at a loss, which was exactly the ugly appearance of an ordinary person when being attacked.
At that moment, Luan Qingyu couldn't help but feel disappointed, and even wondered what kind of magic potion had been given to He Lingyun to make him look down on such an ant.
"boom!"
A loud bang echoed in the reception hall, like thunder, proving the great force of the impact, and the entire hall seemed to shake slightly.
This loud noise was naturally not caused by Luan Qingyu's fist hitting Wen Rui's face. With Wen Rui's physical strength, if he was hit by a casual punch from a Nascent Soul cultivator, it would only make a "puff" sound like a watermelon being smashed.
Luan Qingyu was stuck in a big letter shape on an invisible barrier in the middle of the long oval table. His head was almost smashed into his chest by the huge force of the collision. His body was stuck to the invisible wall for a few seconds before slowly sliding to the ground.
She rolled over on the table, holding her nose in pain, and accidentally fell off the table and onto the ground, looking so miserable.
“It hurts, it hurts… It hurts so much!”
After a long while, Luan Qingyu finally stood up, holding onto the oval table. He covered his red nose, trying hard to hold back the tears that were about to flow from the pain, and said in an annoyed voice, "Why is there a mountain defense formation in the reception room?"
Wen Rui looked frightened and said apologetically, "Sorry, sorry, I forgot to remind you in advance. Since your outfit, whether it is the Taoist robe or the flying sword, is not the standard equipment of the Lishan Immortal Sect, for safety reasons, I have taken some necessary security measures."
This sudden pounce also scared Wen Rui and once again refreshed his assessment of the threat level of the Lishan Immortal Sect's junior sisters.
Judging from the impact force data fed back by the defensive formation, if this pounce had hit a 10,000-ton battleship in the reality of the previous life, it would have been able to create a human-shaped dent in the metal armor plate!
If you don't have a strong body and want to get close to Lishan's pretty sisters, you will definitely pay the price with your life. At best, you will be broken in half, and at worst, you will be shattered to pieces.
Luan Qingyu was filled with shame and anger, and said angrily: "Senior Brother Wen, you keep saying that the Wen family has revered the Phoenix Clan for generations, but is this really how you treat guests? You actually set up a mountain protection array-level barrier during the meeting, keeping people away for thousands of miles, which is really chilling!"
Wen Rui narrowed his eyes, stared at Luan Qingyu for a long while, then smiled and said, "Junior sister, with your little experience, you can see through my little thoughts at a glance. Don't test me. To be honest, I am just an ordinary person. If it weren't for the barrier blocking me just now, my head would have been blown off by you!"
"Humph!"
Although the girl in blue had her thoughts seen through, she just rubbed the bump on her head, curled her lips and snorted in hatred, and it was obvious that she was still angry.
"It's not impossible to remove this barrier, but please don't attack me again, Junior Sister. I'm weak and can't withstand your fancy punches and kicks."
Wen Rui's tone was sincere, but he did not close the formation directly. He said to the metal puppet beside him: "Jarvis, have the nanorobots been deployed?"
"Sir, the deployment has been completed, the network connection has been established, and it can be mobilized at any time."
"Close the formation and set the safe distance to two meters."
Luan Qingyu didn't quite understand the conversation between the master and servant. She tried to reach out and touch the invisible barrier, but touched nothing. She confirmed that the magic circle had been lifted and there was no longer any obstacle between her and Wen Rui.
"Hehe, don't worry, I will beat you gently."
Luan Qingyu dodged and rushed towards Wen Rui again. She was not the type to listen to advice. If she was unhappy, she would not give up easily without venting it on the spot.
The Yuanying powerhouse was incredibly fast, and she covered the distance of several meters in a flash. Just as she was about to touch Wen Rui, she felt a sharp pain in her cervical vertebrae, and then her whole body went limp, and she actually lost control of the body below her neck in an instant.
Wen Rui stepped aside and watched her fall face down on the ground with a hard landing.
The fall caused Luan Qingyu to be more than two meters away from Wen Rui. The pain in her cervical spine disappeared and she regained control of her body. She got up in horror and said in a trembling voice, "What happened just now? What did you do to me? You poisoned me!"
Wen Rui sighed and said, "Why bother? Why won't you listen to my advice? It makes the situation so tense. Junior Sister Luan, I'm really scared of you. Can you please stop trying to do anything to me?"
"How dare you poison me!"
Luan Qingyu almost went crazy. The experience of suddenly losing control of his body and becoming paralyzed was too terrifying.
Since entering the Jinling Sect, Luan Qingyu's only flaw was that she had eaten some snacks. When her body lost control, she did not feel any fluctuation in spiritual power, so the only reason could be that the poison entered her body through the mouth.
She has the Holy Body of Heavenly Phoenix, and should be immune to all poisons. Even evil witchcraft cannot hurt her at all.
However, Senior Brother Wen used some unknown means to paralyze her in an instant, and at the same time he was able to detoxify her immediately so that she could move freely again. This poison technique was simply incredible and unheard of.
"Junior Sister Luan, don't be too nervous. I'd better keep it a little mysterious to enhance the deterrent effect."
Wen Rui said calmly, "Anyway, it's not poison. If you don't believe me, try to cast an antidote spell on yourself. Anyway, I won't offend others unless they offend me. Don't attack me again, OK?"
"What if I attack again?" Luan Qingyu said with a cold face, word by word. She is not the kind of girl who would give in easily.
"Then I'll give you a sample first, and you can decide for yourself whether you can handle it or not!"
Wen Rui was not a man who was gentle with women. As soon as he finished speaking, Luan Qingyu collapsed to the ground again. This time, not only did he lose control of his body below the neck, but every inch of his skin began to become extremely itchy.
It's a pity that she couldn't move, and she couldn't scratch to relieve the pain of being bitten by thousands of ants.
What's worse is that her vocal cords were paralyzed and she couldn't even scream. I'm afraid that all the sufferings she had experienced in her life added together would not be as long as those ten seconds.
Ten seconds later, the strange itching sensation subsided and the body was able to move again. However, Luan Qingyu did not get up for a long time. She collapsed on the ground and gasped for breath. She was shocked and angry, and a trace of fear arose deep in her heart.
Now, she finally understood why Senior Sister He's eyes revealed a hidden fear when she mentioned Wen Rui - although that guy was a mortal, he was really despicable.
Moreover, he really didn't indulge his junior sister. When he got ruthless, he didn't even treat Luan Qingyu as a human being. He treated her like a ferocious beast!
Wen Rui's method of dealing with Luan Qingyu was to let her eat half a pound of nanorobots with snacks. This method was a special countermeasure developed by Wen Rui after in-depth research specifically for cultivators.
In the world of immortal cultivation, there are corresponding ways to break out methods such as poisoning, poisoning, cursing, spreading viruses, and mind control. Detoxification spells, poison removal spells, curse-exorcism spells, disease-healing spells, and mind-purifying spells can all work to break the symptoms.
As for creating some powerful and unique poisons, great witchcraft curses, plague gods' severe epidemics, soul-stealing magic scriptures and other enhanced means, there is a saying that "the devil is one foot high, and the Tao is ten feet higher". Any god who comes and casts higher-level spells and magic can break them.
Moreover, strange and poisonous curses are rare items, and the cost of obtaining them is very high. Some of them require luck, so the cost-effectiveness is really too low.
After in-depth research, Wen Rui finally discovered a world-class BUG, that is, the nanorobots rewarded by the system. After searching all three realms, he really did not find any spell specifically to break the problem of nanorobots parasitic in the body.
The techniques of deworming and curing diseases correspond to organic organisms, and purely mechanical structures are not affected at all.
If we have to name a unique method to crack the problem, it would only be the Jinling Sect's secret spells "The Art of Melting Gold and Refining Iron" or "The Art of Controlling Gold with Magnetic Force".
If these two skills are practiced to perfection, one can perfectly control metal particles like Magneto and destroy the nanorobots in the body.
However, the Jinling Sect, which was once the most powerful gold-based sect in the myriad worlds, now has only one successor, Wen Rui, in the mortal world. The other disciples were deified or fell, and their traces have long been hard to find in the mortal world.
In other words, in the mortal world, Wen Rui is the only one who holds the secret manual of these two skills, which means that the only key to cracking the skills is in the hands of the person who releases the nanorobots. Doesn't this mean that there is no solution?
After receiving the nano-advanced technology reward granted by the system, the first applied technology product developed by Wen Rui was the nano-parasite, and Luan Qingyu was fortunate to become the No. 1 test subject.
Nanorobots enter the body and spread throughout the body through blood circulation. They can be combined according to the program to form various micro surgical components that destroy the human body from the inside.
A major flaw of a cultivator is that his body has a hard shell like a coconut, but is very watery inside.
Just like the Iron Fan Fairy and Iron Fan Princess in the realm of True Immortals, the Black Bear Demon, the Rat Demon, the Yellow Eyebrow King, the Green Lion Demon and the Python Demon in the realm of Great Sages of the demon clan, once they were eaten by Sun Wukong, they immediately cried out in pain and were helpless.
Nanorobots are countless times smaller than the little bugs that Sun Wukong transformed into, and are more concealed. When combined into various surgical components in the body, their lethality and functionality are also stronger.
For example, Luan Qingyu's paralysis was caused by the nanorobots gathering at the cervical nerves through the blood circulation to form an electrical stimulation probe. One injection hit the spinal nerve cord, immediately causing temporary whole-body paralysis.
For example, if you feel itchy all over your body, it is because the nanorobots enter the capillaries, spread throughout the skin's peripheral neurons, and stimulate the somatosensory nerve receptors.
Wen Rui was not sure whether the nanorobots would be effective for cultivators at a higher level, but for Junior Sister Luan, who was only at the Nascent Soul stage, they seemed to be able to do it perfectly.
However, nanorobots can almost only be delivered into the enemy's body by feeding, which limits their application scenarios.
This is because the immortal cultivators have impermeable bodies. It does not mean that all the pores have been closed through cultivation, but that when they reach the Golden Elixir realm, a special barrier similar to Superman's "bioforce field" will be generated on the body surface. Although the nanorobots are microscopically small, they cannot penetrate through the skin pores. In addition, the cultivators can hold their breath for internal circulation, so the breathing penetration effect is not good.
The young girl in green stood up tremblingly, folding her arms to protect her body. She was really scared, and she stepped back slowly, saying in a hoarse voice, "Brother Wen, please don't mess around, and quickly put away your magical powers."
"Hehehe..." Wen Rui sneered with a gloomy face: "What kind of place do you think I am? You can come and go as you please?"
"No...don't..." Luan Qingyu had never seen such an ugly face before, and said in a trembling voice: "What...what do you want to do to me?"
"You asked me what I was thinking? I also want to ask you what you want to do! It was you who came to me and asked me to help you defeat He Lingyun, so I will naturally follow your wishes and help you with all my strength."
Wen Rui was extremely surprised and said, "I am known as Mr. 'Mission Accomplished'. I am a man of my word and I will not give up until I fulfill my promise. Until you have the ability to defeat He Lingyun, I will never let you leave the gate of my Jinling Sect!"
“Eh? Eh~~~!”
Luan Qingyu was also extremely surprised. He never expected to get such an answer from Senior Brother Wen.
