Lord of the Truth

663  Lifeline

After the guard left to spread the news that the War Council had been summoned, Robin did not return inside his palace immediately but remained standing in his place, looking up and opening his mouth, swallowing as much rain as he could.

This is the first time he has seen liquid natural energy and even the first time he knows that energy can be liquefied in this way, so how could he not take a sip or two to try? And he was not disappointed...

Although it was tasteless as it went down his throat, it gave him a feeling of warmth. Then it penetrated his stomach and he felt it purifying him of any accumulated impurities or toxins, He even tangibly felt the solid energy level No. 38 forming faster!!

”Amazing... Just amazing...” Robin muttered as he swallowed a few more drops, then looked at Evergreen, ”Can we do something to retain some of this liquid? I feel like it is a waste as I see it seeping into the earth and oceans without any benefit from it.”

”This process that is happening across the planet is the main purpose. After the rain ends, the plant life will develop tremendously, the beast will become stronger and their meat more useful, and the talent level of the newborn intelligent beings will also increase.” Evergreen flew around Robin for a turn, then stopped and put her hand under her chin, ”But I think I can save some of them for you... Watch that move!”

After Evergreen finished speaking, she snapped her finger, and Robin felt something strange.

Evergreen compacted the ground in many places to create deep holes in the ground, then hardened the stones in those holes so that water would not leak out of them. By simply snapping her fingers, she created several artificial lakes to collect energy rain! The strangest thing is that Robin felt all of this as it was happening, and even monitored the locations of the artificial lakes, even though they were scattered around the entire planet.

No... Not just that, when he focused a little, Robin began to feel strange things happening, such as the volcano in southwest Greenland that was about to explode, or the group of beasts that started rampaging due to the rain and attacked a city belonging to the empire, and he even saw them being slaughtered by golden armored soldiers as if he was watching them in front of his eyes!

”Sigh~ I have to admit.. the time I spent refining you is no longer a waste.” Robin sighed and nodded. At this moment, Robin felt that he saw the entire planet as if it were on his palm.

”Hehe, does that surprise you? Wait until you see your lifeline.” Evergreen put her palms to her mouth and jingled

”Lifeline?” Robin raised his eyebrows slightly and then automatically sent his consciousness to check the artery, ”Hmm?”

The lifeline of any living being is a closed artery between the heart and the head that retains a certain amount of dense energy, which the ancients called life energy because they noticed that when this dense energy runs out, the owner of the body dies, no matter how hard they try to prolong his life.

Even when cultivators break through to a higher level and their lives are prolonged, the dense energy within this lifeline remains the same, what changes is only the speed at which that energy is depleted. So someone like Old Gu, even after he became an Emperor and added thousands of years to his life, would still look like an old man because the life energy in his body was still seriously lacking! The only way Robin knew to increase this energy was through the Major Heavenly Law of Life, but it was too slow. An experienced Life Law user may take a month of non-stop hard Work to prolong the life of the person in front of him for a month or two!

There is another method, which is the artificial Life Fire Law. The user of this law can trap this energy using the green Life Fire steal it from a person and then inject it into another person or thing. But Robin discovered this ability late after he completed the Law of the Life Fire and when he found it to be a powerful technique but it was evil and would open a door to the dark path, he gave it to Mila in silence and didnʼt tell her about this ability and refused to hand it over to anyone else from the fear that someone might discover it... Until Richard discovered it anyway.

This dense life energy can also be used by cultivators after they reach a certain level of control over their bodies. Using this energy produces tremendous power that makes the cultivator break through his limits, but it is also irreplaceable. That is, every drop that is burned brings its owner closer to death.

As for Robin, It is true that he lived for 200 years, but he is a high-level sage now and can live for thousands of years easily, so his lifeline was somewhat incomplete, but not to the degree that would suggest danger, but when he checked his lifeline now, he found it completely filled.

”Mmm, thatʼs good, thanks..” Robin scratched his head and thanked Evergreen, but he didnʼt seem very enthusiastic

”Hmph hmph, you donʼt understand what this means, do you?” Evergreen turned his head around and crossed her hands on her chest, ”Come on, try to burn off your life energy as if you were preparing to carry out a major attack.”

”No thanks, I may not look like it but I still stay young longer.” Robin waved

”Come on, do it!!” Evergreen stepped forward and smacked him several times on the head with her small fists

Robin laughed out loud and shook his head, he knew that Evergreen wouldnʼt hurt him and was just messing with her, so after he tried teasing her a little more, she started focusing on his lifeline again... and he gave the order to burn.

*SHWALAAAA*

A tremendous force rushed out from within Robin as if he were in the middle of an explosion. The wind, rain, and even the sounds of thunder around him all stopped twenty meters away from him as if he were surrounded by a colorless dome.

Robin raised my hand until it was level with his shoulders and closed his eyes to enjoy this tremendous power. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and the dome of energy around him expanded, ”Hmm.. AAAH... KAAAAHH!!!” His life energy exploded wider and his hair began to fly upwards

Even though Robin did not use any attack, the ground beneath his feet cracked, and the palace gate was destroyed when it came into contact with the pure energy emanating from him, the thick stones of the palace themselves did not fall, but rather began to evaporate!

At this moment, Robin felt that he could withstand a few seconds against an Emperor without using the Law of Time or space!

”Hooh~” Robinʼs outburst that terrified the residents of the steep hill did not last long. After only five seconds, Robin stopped burning his life energy, then prepared to hold his heart and spit out blood, and to quickly check on his body to what extent he had aged, but strangely, he did not feel anything, rather There was a storm starting to activate above his head and energy is pouring into his body at a terrifying speed

”Hmm?” Astonished by what was happening, Robin went back to check his lifeline again, but he was surprised by a strange scene, ”What is happening here?!”

Unlike normal, his lifeline was not damaged by use, and the percentage of condensed life energy in it was also rising very quickly. Within an hour or less, it would be completely back to full!

”Hehe, have you forgotten that your life is connected to mine now? Your lifeline will be constantly replenished by the laws of nature on any planet you find yourself on as long as our connection is in effect, just be careful and donʼt burn it to zero, always leave at least one drop and it will replenish automatically~” Evergreen clapped excitedly, she knew exactly what this means for an energy cultivators

”Haha.. hahaha!! This is amazing, Evergreen, amazing!!” Robin clenched his hands and laughed at the sky

Regardless of the enormous power he had just experienced, it was more than just power... using the intense life energy would solve many of the problems that were troubling him!

”Hmph, have you realized the importance of this little lady yet?” Evergreen folded her hands and looked up proudly, ”Wait until you learn the next ability!”

”There is still another ability that you havenʼt told me yet? Is it like using a lifeline?” Robin stopped laughing and faced Evergreen again with eyes full of anticipation and excitement

”Of course! Using the power of the lifeline is a side effect of linking your life to mine, but it is not my special ability, If it is linked to any other planet spirit you will have the same result. But each planetʼs spirit has a special ability that it gives to its owner, in addition to binding life and doubling the power of the soul. The special abilities of planetary spirits are strong and appropriate for what the owner goes through in order to obtain them, and it is also one of the motivations that make you want to refine more planets, but it has a flaw, which is that when you activate this ability, everyone around you will immediately know that you are the owner of a planet, so most planet owners prefer to keep it secret so as not to bring harm upon themselves.” Evergreen shook her head, then winked at Robin, ”My dear owner… Do you want to know what special ability I have for you?”
