Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1685: Chapter 1687: Ye Luo’s Choice

This method, in Ye Luo’s eyes, is indeed very undesirable!

”Senior, is there a way to break the Absolute Spirit Body? Is it possible that by absorbing all the energy from this Void Shard, I can break the Absolute Spirit Body!”

Ye Luo asked the question lingering in his heart.

Ao Long’s laughter echoed, but he calmly said, ”Of course, it’s certain. You became an Absolute Spirit Body because you sealed the Void Shard within you, not because you’re innately an Absolute Spirit Body. Naturally, it can be broken. By the way, the energy from the Void Shard is actually more powerful than Spiritual Power. If you can comprehend it on your own, it might even allow you to use your current cultivation technique to unleash even more formidable strength!”

Ye Luo’s brow furrowed slightly. Among the three methods Ao Long mentioned, the first two were almost clear at a glance. Refining it into a treasure, given the unique nature of the Void Shard having no physical form, would make the treasure very powerful. It could bring Ye Luo incredible strength for a certain period, considered a mid-term benefit!

Direct absorption, on the other hand, could quickly boost Ye Luo’s cultivation, acting as a short-term investment, though a one-time one, but it wastefully yields the most immediate effects!

However, sealing the Void Shard within oneself is a long-term investment. Although its short-term effects are not obvious, it makes the most efficient use of the Void Shard.

So, how will Ye Luo choose?

The Absolute Spirit Body?

In Ye Luo’s heart, this constitution truly seems unpromising. After all, whether it’s the Man Niu or the Bearmen, Ye Luo understands that the Absolute Spirit Body will make it not only difficult for him to adapt for a long time but also drastically reduce his strength in the short term!

Yet the Telun Country might invade at any time!

The Absolute Spirit Body can almost be described as an unprecedented path, after all, anyone with spiritual power wouldn’t be foolish enough to voluntarily give it up!

How to choose!

Short-term, mid-term, long-term, three different ways lie before Ye Luo, each having its own merits for him!

Ye Luo silently pondered, with no one urging him. After all, this decision is crucial for his future development!

Ye Luo stood up, casually pacing back and forth, evidently torn in his heart.

At this moment, what came to Ye Luo’s mind was not these three ways, but his experiences on Earth, and since coming to this Martial Realm!

For Ye Luo, his life has been fairly smooth but dangerously filled!

What is life?

Life is a distant journey formed by countless crossroads.

Every choice at these crossroads determines one’s future!

The future is shaped by these recurring choices!

Ye Luo thought of his cultivation path. It seemed his way of cultivation was unique, like he had been forging his own path ever since coming to this Martial Realm.

The road lies ahead; yet another fork emerges. Choosing different paths will inevitably affect Ye Luo’s future, but discerning right from wrong lies beyond Ye Luo’s current grasp!

Perhaps, the path itself holds no right or wrong; only by persisting to the end will one know the answer!

Unconventional?

Anyway, Ye Luo is already quite unconventional, so what’s the harm in being even more so?

”Senior, I choose the third option. I am willing to seal this Void Shard within myself!”

Ye Luo made his decision, a choice pondered over for a long time!

Ao Long’s voice was neither sad nor happy. In fact, even Ao Long couldn’t decide for Ye Luo. The Void Shard is exceptionally rare even in the Sixth Region; despite Ao Long seeming knowledgeable in front of Ye Luo, this was the first time Ao Long had encountered a Void Shard.

So even Ao Long didn’t know the best choice.

Thus, it was better to leave the choice to Ye Luo himself.

After all, even if Ye Luo finds the decision unfavorable in the future, no one else could be blamed!

Moreover, although Ye Luo’s choice seems to have the least immediate effect, over time, it yields the most return!

”Good, since you’ve made your choice, take this Secret Technique!”

Without any hesitation, Ao Long handed the Secret Technique to Ye Luo. After passing it on, Ao Long said nothing further, for he understood what Ye Luo needed most now was quiet contemplation and peaceful cultivation!

Having obtained the Secret Technique, Ye Luo hesitated not. At times, to cut off endless troubles, once a choice is made, there’s no need for hesitation!

The Secret Technique began its execution. Within Ye Luo’s body, strands of light flowed toward the Void Shard; this was Ye Luo’s spiritual power. However, under the Secret Technique’s influence, it was unaffected by the Void Shard’s turbulence.

This was the first stage: assimilation!

Ye Luo must align his spiritual power with the Void Shard’s energy to proceed with the second step.

Indeed, any single action required utmost caution, as any mistake could lead all efforts to naught!

The cohesive strands of spiritual power, almost tangible, were continuously corroded by the intangible power of the Void Shard around them.

As they appeared, many strands of spiritual power were destroyed immediately.

Yet Ye Luo persisted in melding the remaining strands of spiritual power with the intangible forces time after time.

This was an indescribable Secret Technique.

Even while Ye Luo manipulated the Secret Technique, he couldn’t explain the principle, merely imitating as best as he could!

The strands of spiritual power dwindled. At one point, Ye Luo feared failure!

But at the brink of collapse of the final strand, an uncanny power surged into Ye Luo’s body!

Ye Luo realized he had successfully merged the spiritual power strand with the Void Shard’s energy!

And now that he had succeeded once, naturally, more would follow. Having this successful example allowed Ye Luo to proceed with subsequent actions based on this experience!

New strands of spiritual power manifested, now integrated with the Void Shard’s properties, immune to its effects. Slowly, they surrounded the Void Shard, compelling it toward Ye Luo’s body.
