Chapter 551

Chapter 551: Solution

She actually quite enjoyed having Bai Huxin teach her, because this way, she could dissect the male psyche; Dark Yaner felt like she was growing with every moment.

Moreover, the things Bai Huxin taught were super practical.

Currently, Bai Huxin hadn’t yet imparted the seductive techniques from the Darkness Origin, but she was teaching her how to interact with men—especially this particular man whom she liked very much and was quite formidable.

When it comes to seduction, if you rush things and don’t wait long enough, it often backfires.

If successful, it could lead to the other party feeling resentment due to insufficient feelings.

If you fail, you’ll definitely end up with disdain.

Right now, what Dark Yaner needed to do was master some minor seduction techniques; even if they failed, they could turn into an adorable, naïve act, rather than evoking any negative emotions.

As long as she could spark a bit of desire in the man, with time, things would naturally fall into place.

Lu Ye was totally unaware that Dark Yaner was honing her skills.

He was practicing relentlessly.

I’m just gonna practice, practice, practice!

“Ding! Simulation complete!”

Lu Ye suddenly opened his eyes as the simulation results began flooding his mind.

He frowned.

This truly was a wicked technique.

The Dark Beginning Insect Seal was like a late-stage cancer cell, spreading rapidly throughout your body. No! It’s way scarier than cancer cells, as it forms a sort of rules-based imprint.

Cancer could be surgically removed and disappear.

But once this imprint appears, even if you destroy your body and reshape it, the imprint will reappear within you and your soul.

These imprints completely merge into your flesh, your soul, your everything.

And the master of the imprint can choose to integrate themselves into the imprint in a special way.

At that point, you’re no longer you.

Instead, you become the vessel of the imprint.

The other party could completely replace you.

It’s like a completely new being being nurtured inside your body; everything about you would be swapped out for this new existence.

Not only would everything about you be replaced, but they’d also bring back everything about themselves.

A Saint-level being could appear right here in this world.

Terrifying!

So, what’s the solution?

Lu Ye had no clue where this thing was hiding.

Honestly, these women are truly talented; they’ve managed to find things that are extraordinarily well-hidden.

Lu Ye had already had the system simulate where the poison was hiding.

But it couldn’t simulate anything at all.

It was as if the poison was stored in a parallel world, only emerging at the right moment.

You have to know, in his previous life, even when Lu Ye became a Celestial Lord, he never realized he had been poisoned.

Part of the reason was that he genuinely trusted these women.

Another reason was that these poisons were hidden way too well.

There’s definitely something in his body that doesn’t belong to this world; his eight ex-wives used this something to store the poison they inflicted.

So how do you solve this?

The system had two simulation methods.

First, find the poison and eradicate it at the source.

Second, find the poison, place it on someone else in advance, and lure the so-called Dark Clan deities into an early appearance, then kill them.

Once the Dark Clan deities are dead, then the so-called poison will naturally disappear.

Lu Ye scratched his head at these solutions.

No way…

Dark Clan deities are at the Saint level.

Are they that easy to kill?

The first method is about finding the poison on Lu Ye.

The second method is about finding the remaining poison in the Dark Clan.

It’s just like Reincarnation Obsession; due to time reversals, it doubles.

The Dark Clan definitely still has this poison around.

But both methods are quite challenging.

What’s the sticking point?

The Dark Clan is located in the Seventh Heaven.

Due to the power of the Dark Clan deities, they prevented the laws of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens from being triggered.

The Dark Clan has Great Emperors because the laws of the Great Sage of the Nine Heavens exist, so the Great Emperors and those above them in the Eighth and Ninth Heavens couldn’t clear out the Dark Clan at all.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t just be shouting without taking action.

And in the Seventh Heaven, it seems like only Lu Ye could confront the Great Emperors as a Quasi-Emperor; the key is that the timing of the poison’s effect coincides with Lu Ye breaking through to Quasi-Emperor.

By the time Lu Ye has the power to obliterate the Dark Clan, it will be too late.

This is really frustrating.

Unless Lu Ye reaches the Ruler Realm, he might have a shot against a Great Emperor!

But that’s super difficult; the gap between Quasi-Emperor and Great Emperor is just too massive.

For Lu Ye to confront a Great Emperor as a Quasi-Emperor is already unprecedented; if he could escape from a Great Emperor while being a Quasi-Emperor, he’d cement his place in history.

Ruler confronting a Great Emperor?

Don’t kid yourself!

Lu Ye furrowed his brows.

“Ding! When the Dark Beginning Insect Seal erupts, more information can be deduced; there’s no need for the host to rush,” the system said.

Because the Dark Beginning Insect Seal is an outer-world thing, the system has already achieved a remarkable level of deduction.

“I’m not rushing; I’m just checking if I can take on a Great Emperor when I reach Ruler Realm,” Lu Ye said, looking at the brilliant fiery halo above his Nascent Soul.

It’s been destroyed for so long; any spark of rebirth would benefit Lu Ye tremendously. For instance, his current physique—even if a Quasi-Emperor was training beside him, they couldn’t even fight for spiritual energy against him.

He doesn’t even know what kind of physique he has now.

But his physique keeps getting stronger.

Just a bit of rebirth amid destruction can yield such results; what if it became even stronger?

Lu Ye felt that in the reborn world, there might be infinite possibilities.

So, he should think of ways to accelerate this rebirth of the world.

“Ding! Host, I take it the main business has been concluded?” the system asked.

Lu Ye?

“Ding! I heard you praised her for her contributions to the Darkness Origin?”

Shen Xitang appeared before Lu Ye.

Lu Ye…

“Yeah, it makes sense to praise someone for their accomplishments, right?”

Shen Xitang snorted coldly.

“Ding! Well, I’ve made quite a few contributions as well, right? Why don’t you praise me?”

Lu Ye…
