Chapter 265: Harming Others to Benefit Yourself and Helping the World
More than half a month later.
Song Chengyun felt a clear wave of Qi in his body. After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of excitement.
"Qi Hai Realm, this is Qi Hai Realm!"
"Qi! It actually exists!"
Song Chengyun has been practicing for so long, and has been stuck in the late stage of the body refining realm for almost two years. He has never shown any signs of breaking through the Qi Hai Realm. He once doubted whether there really was Qi, and also had some doubts about the authenticity of the Suzaku Liuyang Gong.
Now that he has finally broken through, he finally understands why he couldn't break through before.
It's because there is no heaven and earth vitality.
And now, in this mysterious place, the heaven and earth vitality is so rich that it simply shocked him.
"If I can keep practicing here, I'm afraid my cultivation will soar all the way..."
Song Chengyun thought so.
At this time, Su Xin's figure quietly emerged.
Song Chengyun hurriedly bowed and said:
"Thank you Su Shen for your great grace. My cultivation has successfully broken through to the Qi Hai Realm."
"Good."
Su Xin smiled with relief.
During this period, he also studied the secret method of absorbing other people's true qi. This secret method is not difficult. After all, he did not consider the subsequent steps of refining other people's true qi. If this secret method really exists, that step should be the most difficult.
Considering his evil physique, Su Xin did not worry about any sequelae, and only needed to absorb a little bit, so he did not consider it so complicated. He just changed the part of absorbing the heaven and earth energy in the Wuliang Longxiang Gong to absorb other people's true qi after appropriate modification.
This change is not big.
The difficulty is not great.
So it only took more than ten days to succeed.
However, this technique is only a theory at present. He has not really used it yet, and it is not sure whether it can really work.
Su Xin stretched out his hand, gently pressed on Song Chengyun's abdomen, and said lightly:
"Let me check your cultivation."
As he said, he quietly operated the technique of absorbing true qi and tried to absorb the true qi in the other party's body.
Instantly, a huge suction force came from his palm. The small amount of true qi that Song Chengyun had just condensed in his body was originally flowing slowly along a specific trajectory. Under this sudden strong suction force, it immediately rushed towards the position of Su Xin's palm.
These true qi were easily absorbed by Su Xin.
Song Chengyun showed a painful look on his face, but he still stood firmly in place, not daring to move.
Su Xin retracted his hand and stood calmly.
Carefully feeling the insignificant group of true qi that had just entered his body, in front of his vast amount of true qi, this group of true qi was as small as a grain of sand in the vast ocean, inconspicuous, and could not have any impact on the vast ocean.
Even Su Xin's true qi wanted to instinctively expel this small group of true qi, but Su Xin certainly would not allow such a thing to happen.
He had waited so hard for this little bit of true qi.
If it was gone, he would have to wait at least a few more days.
Therefore, Su Xin deliberately controlled his true qi to actively avoid it, allowing this small group of true qi to invade his body.
Normally, when the true qi of others enters the body, it will cause serious erosion to the body, just like concentrated sulfuric acid flowing in the body.
This is why the true qi has such a great killing power on ordinary warriors and the strength gap is so large.
This is also why it is easy to cause serious internal injuries after being injured by the true qi of others. Even if the external injuries are healed, it is possible that the injuries will become more and more serious under the continuous erosion of the true qi of the opponent.
Su Xin took the initiative to remove the true qi protection. This kind of thing is extremely unwise for anyone.
People with weak cultivation are easily eroded by the true qi of the opponent and cause serious internal injuries. It is very, very difficult to recover.
People with strong cultivation are also strong in body. Although they are not easily eroded and injured by the true qi of the weak, it is definitely not good to allow the true qi of the opponent to invade.
Unless the body is too evil.
Just like Su Xin at this time...
When that small ball of true qi invaded his own flesh and blood, it originally wanted to erode the flesh, but in the face of the evil flesh activity and vitality, the true qi was swallowed and absorbed by the flesh and blood.
These happened only in an instant.
Almost at the moment when Su Xin released the Qi protection, the Qi automatically invaded, and then was directly swallowed by Su Xin's body instinctively.
"Ding! [Harm others and benefit yourself] progress +1."
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, the task [Harm others and benefit yourself] has been completed, and you are rewarded with a chance to awaken your superpower. Do you want to use it?"
Su Xin smiled slightly and said in his heart:
"Use it!"
"Ding! Awaken the superpower [Harm others and benefit yourself]"
[Harm others and benefit yourself LV1: When killing intelligent life, you will gain 10% of its remaining lifespan. ]
[Note: If the other party is resurrected or has other abilities to resist death, the premise does not hold, and the superpower will not take effect. ]
"Hmm? This superpower..."
Su Xin's eyes moved.
But he did not consider the issue of upgrading superpowers for the time being, but looked at Song Chengyun and asked:
"How do you feel now?"
Song Chengyun looked a little pale, and said:
"I feel... my true qi... seems to be gone, I should practice again."
Su Xin comforted him: "It's okay, then you continue to practice here, there is such a rich heaven and earth vitality, and so many spirit stones, it is enough for you to practice true qi again."
"Okay, thank you Su Shen."
Song Chengyun was not discouraged and nodded.
As Su Xin's subordinate, the biggest advantage is that you don't have to worry about life and death, let alone such a small matter as the loss of true qi.
After Su Xin sent Song Chengyun to continue practicing, he came to the exclusive palace that was sealed by him and only he could enter.
"The ability of harming others to benefit oneself does not seem to be very useful. With my ability of the Unyielding Dead and my constantly improving cultivation, I don't have to worry about my lifespan at all. It seems unnecessary to keep it."
"But..."
"The effect of this ability is also magical. It would be a pity to forget it directly."
"Forget it. Anyway, there are so many ability slots now, and it is easy to get causal points. It's okay to keep one more ability."
"Try to upgrade first, maybe I can get a few valuable characteristics for me..."
Su Xin thought for a while and finally decided to keep this ability and then start upgrading.
He doesn't have many causal points now, only more than 200,000 points, but for the LV1 ability, it is more than enough to upgrade.
After many refreshes, Su Xin got a pretty good characteristic——
[Da Ji Tian Xia: The absorbed lifespan will be automatically stored and can be given to others at will within one day, but there will be a 90% loss. 】
The second characteristic is useless. After refreshing for more than ten times in a row, no valuable characteristics appeared. He simply chose one at random and didn't continue to upgrade.
Harming others for personal gain also stays at LV3.
If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no further upgrades. After all, even the second useful feature cannot be refreshed. Upgrading again is a waste of causal points. It is better to save it for more useful abilities.
However, the feature of Daji Tianxia gave him a small surprise.
After ten years in the other world, he found that many acquaintances had obvious signs of aging. In a few decades, these people may die of exhaustion. He was powerless before. Even if the person was valuable, he could only watch the other person die.
As for extending life by breaking through cultivation, not everyone can do it.
And now, with the feature of Daji Tianxia, he can truly control the lives of others. He will not die from accidents or aging.
Of course.
Su Xin does not intend to extend the life of everyone. Only the few people he cares about the most are qualified to obtain the life he bestows.
For example, Zhai Shiquan who has the ability to resurrect, Xie Fan who has the ability to travel through time, and a few others.
However, the effect of Daji Tianxia still needs to be verified in practice. The key is to try whether it can delay death caused by terminal illness.
Su Xin left the small world.
Through the charity software of the Dawn Society, several terminally ill cancer patients who were on the verge of death were found.
...
In the intensive care unit of a large hospital.
There were patients lying on four beds, and each person was connected to various instruments for real-time monitoring of various physical data.
On the bed near the door was a bald man in his thirties, his face was pale without a trace of blood, his eyes were closed, and he had no reaction.
There were many people standing by the bed, including relatives, doctors, and nurses. The doctor touched the man's carotid artery, looked at the data on the instrument, and then shook his head slightly at the patient's relatives.
"Prepare for the funeral, he only has a few hours left at most. It is a medical miracle that he can hold on for so long. Let's be open-minded."
Hearing this, the faces of several relatives by the bed suddenly dimmed, and the atmosphere was gloomy.
At this moment.
A figure seemed to walk out of the void, but did not attract the attention of anyone at the scene. He just walked to the bed and gently touched the patient's forehead with one finger.
When the doctor was about to turn around and leave, he subconsciously glanced at the instrument, suddenly exclaimed, paused, and looked carefully.
The next moment, his eyes widened:
"How is it possible?!"
A relative of the patient asked in surprise: "Doctor Wang, what's wrong?"
The doctor did not answer, but took two steps to the instrument, stared at it carefully for a while, and touched the patient's carotid artery again.
At this time, the man on the bed also woke up. Although his face was still very pale, it was obvious that he was in good spirits.
He looked at the people in the room and asked in confusion:
"Dad, Mom, Second Uncle, Third Aunt... Why are you all here?"
The doctor also came back to his senses at this time and said repeatedly: "The patient's condition has suddenly improved a lot, but it doesn't seem like a last gasp. I will arrange a few examinations for him first. You wait a moment..."
Because the patient's condition was so special, Dr. Wang personally urged the nurse to check as soon as possible, and the results came out in less than half an hour.
Holding the results, Dr. Wang looked unbelievable and was stunned for a long time. He even asked several other doctors to look at it together before he dared to confirm that the patient's physical condition had indeed improved suddenly.
And it was a significant improvement.
It was as if he had returned to the physical state of a few years ago, as if time had flowed backwards on him.
For a terminal cancer patient, the physical condition is completely different after one or two years, and ordinary people can see that they are two different people with their naked eyes.
Now, the terminal cancer patient who was diagnosed by the doctor as having only a few hours left to live has recovered a lot in the blink of an eye. This is a real medical miracle, enough to shock the medical community.
But what no one noticed was that Su Xin stood silently by the side and watched all the patients' physical examinations and result reports throughout the process.
No one noticed that all this was caused by Su Xin who was ignored.
"As expected, terminally ill patients can also prolong their lives..."
Su Xin nodded secretly: "Although it cannot cure the patient, as long as it can prolong the life of the patient and turn the terminal stage into the early stage, there is a chance of cure."
"Besides, if there are really important people suffering from terminal illnesses, they can also be immortalized by continuously giving them life."
"This ability is still of some value."
Although Su Xin does not intend to rely on this ability to save people all day long, it is better to have it than not.
In addition, by saving this patient, he also gained dozens of karma points. Although not much, it also reminded Su Xin that he had not earned karma points through donations in the past ten years. Next, he should be able to quickly harvest a large number of karma points.
Ten years ago, he donated through the charity software with one click, donated tens of billions in a short period of time, and earned more than 10 million karma points. After that, he did not do this again for a long time.
At that time, the main reason was that the funds were not enough.
In addition, the charity software was not perfect at that time, it was not popularized, and there were not enough terminally ill patients registered, so it was shelved.
Now that ten years have passed, the organization has grown and has sufficient funds. Although the charity software has not developed much, it has accumulated a lot of terminally ill patients.
"I can make a lot of karma points again."
Su Xin thought about it.
But he did not ask for money immediately, but first found the former president Zuo Shuanghui who was dismissed some time ago. The latter was enjoying a leisure time with his wife and children on a private beach.
Su Xin teleported to this island, sat by the swimming pool on the third floor of the sea view villa, and sent a voice transmission to Zuo Shuanghui with his mind.
A few minutes later.
Zuo Shuanghui, wearing beach pants, went up the stairs with a smile on his face, came to the swimming pool, and shouted respectfully as usual:
"Meet Su Shen."
"Well, sit down."
The two lay side by side on the lounge chair.
Su Xin crossed his legs and asked casually:
"Is there any resentment in your heart for suddenly dismissing you? Or do you feel unwilling?"
Zuo Shuanghui smiled bitterly and said, "God Su, you are too kind. You have been very kind to me. Almost everything I have was given by God Su. God Su can give at will, and he can naturally take it back at any time."
"I don't have any resentment in my heart."
"I am just a little confused, but I have thought about it carefully these days, and combined with the rotation system proposed by God Su, I feel relieved."
"Now the whole world is doing well, and the Dawn Club is growing stronger and stronger, gradually becoming the uncrowned king of the world, with increasing financial resources and power, and greater influence."
"But the core of all this essentially depends on the deterrence brought by Su Shen, rather than the ability of the Dawn Society itself."
"The current prosperity is only a superficial phenomenon."
"To put it bluntly, it is a lack of virtue."
"The key is that many people in the Dawn Society, especially the top leaders including me, have gradually ignored this point. Instead, they are dazzled by the strength of the Dawn Society and immersed in power."
"If Su Shen does not show up for a long time, and the Dawn Society continues to maintain this arrogance, and its power is rigid for a long time, it will sooner or later be overturned by the whole world, and the internal will inevitably fall apart."
"Su Shen's move should just be to let the Dawn Society really get on the right track on its own."
