Chapter 179 - 71

Chapter 71: Ma Hongjun's Dream!This... this is even more Faith Power than Tang San provided the first time!But soon, he understood the key.Although Qian Renxue's luck level was slightly inferior to Tang San's, she was, after all, the first person to become a god in the original work, the inheritor of the Angel God.Her luck was so profound that it was second only to Tang San's.More importantly—Qian Renxue's current spirit power level was forty-seventh rank Spirit Ancestor!Fifteen years old, forty-seventh rank.Such cultivation, looking at the entire continent's younger generation, was among the very top existences.Therefore, merely arousing a trace of her curiosity and vague trust generated Faith Power far exceeding that of Tang San, who was still at the Spirit Master level!"Qian Renxue..."Fu Shiyan whispered the name, a flicker of thought in his eyes.He remembered that in his special plan for the second simulation, he had indeed implanted some "memory fragments" into target individuals like Qian Renxue and the Shrek Seven Devils.These memory fragments were usually dormant and would only be triggered and activated when they came into contact with matters or information related to "Fu Shiyan."He had expected Oscar to be the first to trigger them.But he never expected... it would be Qian Renxue!"It seems the matter with Yu Tianheng has already reached her ears."Fu Shiyan quickly clarified the situation.Qian Renxue had operated in Heaven Dou City for many years, with informants everywhere.Yu Tianheng, as a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and a prominent figure in the Royal Academy, naturally had his every move reported.And when he left his courtyard in a sorry state and then argued with Dugu Yan in the street... these things had probably already been seen by Qian Renxue's informants and noted in their hearts."The memory fragments have been activated."Fu Shiyan's lips curved slightly.The memory fragment implanted in Qian Renxue's mind should have awakened by now.Within the fragment, there should be Ning Fengzhi's future evaluation of her—"An eighty-ninth rank Spirit Douluo at twenty-six years old..."A smile flashed in Fu Shiyan's eyes.This information was enough to make Qian Renxue intensely curious about him and eager to investigate.And this curiosity and investigation were the best source of Faith Power!He took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.Four hundred thousand faith power points!This was enough for him to manifest a spirit ring close to one hundred thousand years for his second Spirit.But he didn't use it immediately.It wasn't time yet.More importantly... his gaze drifted into the distance, as if he could penetrate layers of mountains to see the young man in that distant village."Ma Hongjun..."Fu Shiyan murmured softly.The Evil Fire Phoenix Spirit had immense potential.If the Evil Fire problem could be solved, Ma Hongjun's growth speed would be no less than anyone else's.And now was the time.His consciousness sank into the system.[Target retrieved: Ma Hongjun][Current location: Fasinuo Province, outskirts of Silvis City, Phoenix Village][Current status: Eight years old, Spirit Evil Fire Phoenix (unpurified), eleventh rank spirit power][Emotional state: Suffering greatly from the Evil Fire, longing for liberation, inwardly suppressed and despairing]"Begin."Fu Shiyan selected Ma Hongjun as the target and brought up the Dream Weaving Module.[Target locked: Ma Hongjun][Implantation method: Deep dream penetration][Content template: Display key fragments from a bystander's perspective showing future Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire becoming increasingly severe, his body growing fatter, then receiving help from 'Fu Shiyan' to purify the Evil Fire, his Spirit evolving, and finally becoming a powerful Battle Soul Master.][Faith Power consumed: Approximately 90,000 points][Confirm?]"Confirm."[Command executing... Dream scene constructing... Emotional resonance enhancing... Penetration beginning...]...Fasinuo Province, Phoenix Village.In the dilapidated hut, Ma Hongjun huddled on the wooden bed.Eight years old, his face was flushed, and his body was burning hot.The Evil Fire was churning within him again.The burning pain in his internal organs made him almost go mad."Why... why me...?"He bit the corner of the quilt, tears flowing uncontrollably.Since the day his Spirit awakened, this pain had been his constant companion.Each Evil Fire outbreak was like being in purgatory.The ridicule of the village children, the pointing fingers of adults, the helplessness and heartache in his parents' eyes... all of it weighed heavily on this eight-year-old child's heart.He hated his Spirit.Hated this damned Evil Fire.And even more... hated his own powerlessness.Drowsily, he fell asleep.Then, the dream began... In his dream, he stood in a void.Before him, scenes unfolded like a water curtain.The first scene.It was a boy around ten years old, somewhat similar to him, but fatter.The boy was squatting in a corner, trembling all over, his face flushed.The Evil Fire raged within him, making him so painful he almost fainted."So hot... so hot..."The boy murmured to himself, his eyes full of despair.The second scene.The boy was twelve years old, even fatter.He sat in the Spirit Master Academy dormitory, looking at himself in the mirror—a bloated figure, a flushed face, no light in his eyes.The surrounding classmates whispered:"Look, that Evil Fire Fatty is acting up again.""I heard he almost burned down the dorm yesterday.""How unlucky, living with someone like that..."The boy lowered his head, clenching his fists, his fingernails digging deep into his palms.The third scene.The boy was fourteen, so fat he could barely walk.He lay in the academy's infirmary, covered in bandages.The Evil Fire had gone out of control, almost burning him to death.A middle-aged teacher with glasses stood by the bed, sighing:"Ma Hongjun, your Spirit problem is getting more and more serious.""If this continues, I'm afraid..."The rest of the words were unspoken, but the meaning was clear.The boy in the scene closed his eyes, tears streaming from the corners.Outside the dream, Ma Hongjun on the bed trembled all over.He seemed to feel that despair.The despair of being tormented by Evil Fire, ridiculed by others, seeing no hope."No... don't..."He mumbled unconsciously.Then, the scene changed.The fourth scene.It was a boy of fifteen or sixteen, still fat, but with light in his eyes.He stood on an open ground, with several peers beside him.One of the black-haired boys patted his shoulder:"Fatty, don't worry. Teacher Fu will definitely have a way.""Teacher Fu?"Ma Hongjun in the scene looked up, his eyes filled with anticipation."Mhm."The black-haired boy nodded:"My master said he can solve your Evil Fire problem.""And... he can even evolve your Spirit into a true Fire Phoenix."A true Fire Phoenix?Outside the dream, Ma Hongjun's heart raced.He held his breath, staring intently at the scene.The fifth scene.A young man with silver hair and black robes appeared in the scene.The man had a handsome face and a gentle demeanor, looking no older than his early twenties.
