Reborn One Week Before the Apocalypse

“If there was someone whose attribute value far surpassed the Matriarch’s, there might be a way.”

The Sect Leader shook his head. Even he couldn’t think of any other solution at this moment.

“Her sea of consciousness contains all sorts of energy. It shouldn’t be that only a Spirit Attribute Superpower User can repair it. Any other attribute should be able to as well, right?”

At that moment, the calmest person present was probably Lin Yu. It wasn’t that he didn’t care about Tang Mo; on the contrary, he cared so much that he knew he had to force himself to stay calm. Only then could he think of the most effective way to save her.

“Energy from other attributes can indeed repair a sea of consciousness. Although it’s difficult for the spiritual power of those attributes to leave one’s body and enter another’s, it’s not impossible with the guidance of a Spirit Attribute Superpower User and a Crystal Stone.”

The Sect Leader thought for a moment before speaking. “Theoretically, this method is feasible, but only in theory.”

Because Tang Mo’s attribute value wasn’t just number one among Spirit Attributes; she was number one among all attributes in all of Huaxia. So, finding someone whose attribute value far surpassed hers was still impossible.

“If one person isn’t enough, can we gather the energy of many people? We could combine our powers into one, and that would be enough to repair Tang Mo’s sea of consciousness!”

Lin Yu’s mind raced, and he quickly thought of another solution.

The more he thought about it after saying it aloud, the more plausible it seemed. He wished he could summon people to implement it that very second.

Although Xiao Tao and Lin Yi didn’t fully understand the technicalities, they listened intently and felt that Lin Yu’s idea was a good one.

After all, if the spiritual power of other attributes could be guided, then gathering the spiritual power of different attributes into a single force shouldn’t be too difficult, right?

Three pairs of eyes stared at him in unison, and the Sect Leader only felt his heart sink further.

He couldn’t bear to say what came next. It felt like he was constantly delivering despair.

“It won’t work. Not all energy can enter the Matriarch’s body. Just as your Spirit Attribute was rejected, Lin Yu, the energy of others would be even more strongly repelled. It’s already incredibly difficult to find even one person whose energy isn’t rejected by the Matriarch’s spiritual power. Finding a large number of people whose energy she doesn’t reject is practically impossible.”

The Sect Leader shook his head.

‘There’s almost no chance. First, I myself have a Spirit Attribute. Second, my Healing Power was inherited from Tang Mo, so the patterns I form are familiar to her. Finally, and most importantly, Tang Mo recognizes my aura. Moreover, just now in her sea of consciousness, her spiritual power had shown a sense of trust toward my own.’

‘That proves Tang Mo herself trusts me. Only with those other two factors could I smoothly enter her sea of consciousness.’

‘And that was just entering. If I actually tried to do something, I don’t know if it would still go so smoothly.’

‘Finding someone who meets all three of these conditions is just too difficult.’

‘First of all, among those with the Spirit Attribute, only a few people from Wuxi Village can heal. It’s not something you can learn just by being given the patterns; it requires immense Talent.’

‘And among those people, I’m the only one Tang Mo knows and trusts.’

‘Besides, even if we ignore the trust requirement, it’s not even certain that the combined spiritual power of everyone who meets the first two conditions could match Tang Mo’s attribute value, let alone far surpass it.’

The Sect Leader’s words made the atmosphere heavy once again.

At this point, Lin Yu also understood just how difficult this task was.

Considering Tang Mo’s attribute value, it would likely take the combined power of the top ten people on the Huaxia leaderboard to repair her sea of consciousness.

But everyone present knew Tang Mo’s personality all too well. She wouldn’t even let someone as close as Lin Yu get near her. The only exception might be Lin Yi.

‘Perhaps…’

‘There is one other person.’

Lin Yu suddenly thought of someone: Qin Ling.

Lin Yu knew what kind of relationship Qin Ling and Tang Mo had. Moreover, Qin Ling’s attribute value was extremely high, ranking second in Huaxia. He was arguably the person closest to Tang Mo’s attribute value.

“If it’s Qin Ling, maybe he won’t be rejected,” Lin Yu murmured.

“I know his attribute value might not be enough, but he has an Agility Pearl inside him,” Lin Yu added.

The Sect Leader froze for a moment. Without a word, he immediately turned on his ID Watch, opened the message that had just sent a high-priority alert, and began carefully reading its terms.

Lin Yu knew the Sect Leader understood what he meant. They must have had the same idea.

He then quickly opened the same notice himself, reading it line by line.

Lin Yi and Xiao Tao had been trying their best to follow along, but at this point, they still had no idea what Lin Yu and the Sect Leader were talking about.

They didn’t know what the two were looking for in that notice.

But seeing how serious both of them were, Lin Yi and Xiao Tao didn’t dare to interrupt. They just quietly opened the notice on their own watches, poring over it bit by bit, hoping to find some useful information they could understand.

A little while later, Wen Jianshu returned from outside the tent.

Wen Jianshu had been very busy ever since entering the protected zone. After all, with more and more people inside, the Sect Leader couldn’t handle everything by himself.

So, the Sect Leader was mainly responsible for maintaining the Protective Shield and ensuring everyone’s safety.

As for maintaining order and managing food supplies, those responsibilities had been fully entrusted to Wen Jianshu. Lin Yu, Xiao Tao, and Lao San’s men were all assisting him.

After all, Tang Mo had been the one to create this protected zone; even Qin Ling had arrived later. Lao San and his group had been idle anyway, and with Qin Ling away, they decided to help out Tang Mo’s people.

Wen Jianshu was a natural leader. He’d managed much larger groups of people before without breaking a sweat, so it was no surprise he kept the small protected zone running in perfect order.

The fact that the protected zone was now orderly and safe was largely thanks to Wen Jianshu.

As soon as Wen Jianshu entered, he saw Momo lying unconscious and pale on the bed, while everyone else in the tent was staring at their watches with rapt attention, as if possessed.

“Honey, what’s going on?”

Wen Jianshu’s face was also filled with worry.

Seeing Wen Jianshu, Lin Yi, who had just managed to calm down a little, immediately broke down again. Tears streamed down her face.

“Jianshu, Momo… Momo, she…”

Lin Yi was crying too hard to form a complete sentence.

“Auntie, why don’t you and Xiao Tao go take care of Yangyang and Xianxian for now? I’ll explain the situation to Uncle Jianshu.”

Lin Yi and Xiao Tao couldn’t be of any help by staying here anyway. To prevent them from having an emotional breakdown, it was better to have them go look after the children.

It wouldn’t do for someone else to collapse before Tang Mo even woke up.

Lin Yu had Xiao Tao lead Lin Yi out of the tent.
