"Im... Impossible!" Jasmiaggered a few steps bad fell to the ground. As she fell, her skirt rolled up, revealing her underwear, but she paid no attention to it. Her trembling finger poi Yun Wuji, her eyes shrinking to pin-size as shock overwhelmed her.
She couldn't believe what she had just witnessed. It was as if reality itself had shattered, plunging her into an absurd, nightmarish delusion. No—not even a dream! No one, not even in their wildest, most unhinged imaginings, would dare jure something so impossibly absurd and utterly ridiculous!
Seve profourances!
All living human beings in this world are born with profound veins, and without exception, whether mortal or eveion gods possess exactly 54 profourahis unging truth had stood as the bedrock of cultivation, an irrefutable fact woven into the very fabric of existence.
It was as fual as fire being hot, the sun rising in the east, or water flowing downhill. To cim otherwise would be like suggesting the heavens themselves could fall or that day and night might trade pces. No one had ever seen, heard, or even imagined someoh more or less than 54 profourances.
It was absolute, the ultimate on sehat defied debate!
But… but right now, someone had shattered the very foundation of those fual ws and on sense before her eyes! Not only did he have more profourahan normal, he had a staggering total of seve!
It wasn't just unpreted; it was unthinkable, a direct defiance of the natural order of the universe. This wasn't merely bending the rules, it was as if those rules had been torn apart ateirely!
"Sigh, do you uand now why I tried to hide the truth from you?" Yun Wuji let out a helpless sigh, walking toward her aending a hand to help her up.
"Who... no... what are you?!" Jasmine didn't take his hand, instead, she stared at him, her eyes trembling with disbelief. The way she viewed him had pletely ged, no longer seeing him as a mere lowly mortal from a lower realm, but as a monstrous anomaly beyond her prehension!
"I am your disciple, Yun Wuji," Yun Wuji said with a warm smile as he reached out aly held her small hand. "Why are you ag like a scared child? Get up!" He shook his head inwardly, thinking, 'This little girl's mental fortitude is far weaker than the divine spirits.'
He hadn't expected her to react so dramatically.
'Well, I finally say that my genius is terrifying!'
'Alright, let's set a new goal—sg someoo death with my genius!'
"..." Jasmine's eyes didn't leave his face, and she remained silent, not eveing as he helped her into a seat.
"Here, have a hot chocote to calm down," Yun Wuji said as he took out some hot chocote from the Sky Poison Pearl, poured it into a cup, and ha to Jasmine.
"Master, I want some too," the Evil Infant, who had been silently watg the show earlier, suddenly piped up.
"..." Yun Wuji gave her a helpless look and poured a cup for her as well.
Jasmihe cup in her slightly trembling hands, her gaze dropping to the rich brown chocote ihe sweet, delicious aroma finally mao stir her, and with a sigh, she raised the cup to her lips and took a sip.
'As expected, sweets are the way to deal with children,' Yun Wuji thought with a nod of satisfa. But then, a sudden crossed his mind. 'Wait... the FBI won't e after me for this, right?'
"I've never seen a freak like you in my entire life," Jasmine finally recovered from her shod said.
"You're only 13 years old, what could you have possibly seen in such a short life?" Yun Wuji scoffed at her attempt to act like an adult.
"..." The hand holding the cup tightened, and she seriously sidered smag him. But, annoyingly enough, his absurd response mao jolt her out of her shock.
"Now, do you believe what I said earlier?" Yun Wuji leaned ba his chair and said.
"...Somewhat, but... how could someone like you eve?" Jasmine nodded slowly. Even though she didn't want to believe his cims, she had no choice but to, because there was nothing more unbelievable than profound veins with 78 entrances!
Poor little girl, she had no idea that the man in front of her had done something even more eous. He was someone who had been scious even when he was still a sperm.
"I don't know, maybe I'm just built different," Yun Wuji said with a shrug, spreading his hands. His expression practically screamed: I'm the chose's not my fault I was born superior to you lowly mortals.
'...Why do I feel looked down upon?' Jasmi an irritating feeling crawl up her spine as she gred at his smug expression. Suppressing her annoyance, she asked again, "What did you mean earlier by predig the future?"
"It is an innate ability I was born with, from time to time and under certain ditions and when I pay the right price, I see future events," Yun Wuji told her the lie that he cooked to cover up his meta-knowledge.
If one day someone requested him to see the future of something he didn't know about, he could just cim that he hadn't fulfilled the necessary ditions or that the price for using his ability was too high.
"What do you mean by certain ditions and a high price?" Jasmine asked further. If what he said was true, then this ability of his could be truly overpowered!
"ditions had to be reted to the object that I want to see the future of. Let's take you, for example, I used myself to see what would be beneficial for me iure, and I saw a vision of you two years ahead," Yun Wuji uttered loads of bullshit that sounded ving. He paused before adding, "As for the price, it differs, but even the lowest price isn't something you casually pay." As he said that, a sad aful look fshed on his face before he smiled again.
"..." Jasmine caught the plex look on his fad stopped asking. She guessed that the 'price' he had to pay for using such a heaven-defying ability must be astronomically high.
"We went off track because of you. Give me the Heretic God's Iructible blood," Yun Wuji said, feeling that he had spouted enough nonsense for today and decided to return to the main topic.
He had spent so much time bullshitting her because he knew she would be stig to him 24/7. There was no way he could hide as from her, so the best option was to feed her with believable lies, no matter how ridiculous they seemed. After all, with his profound veins, what could be more unbelievable than that? He held an absolute advantage.
He could always attribute his lies to his profound veins. The Phoenix, Azure Dragon, and Golden Crow had all been bullshitted by him, mainly because they had witnessed his profound veins, which defied all logic. When you had something as eous as that bag you up, who would dare question the lies that you spouted?
"Hmph! Here, take it," Jasmine snorted and flicked her finger, sending the blood flying toward his dire.
"Thanks," Yun Wuji held the Heretic God's blood and looked at it with a plex look. This was the stro ian this current world; anyone who got it would dominate people a greater realm than them. But to Yun Wuji, this was just an addition, it 't pare to his profound veins.
He walked over to his body which was sitting on the ground, motionless. His bodies were trolled remotely by him; they weren't es with separate sciousnesses or indepe personalities. He had to split his attention and multitask to trol them, much like using both hands to draw a circle with the right hand and a square with the left.
If he withdrew his trol from the body, it would stop funing, being nothing more than a dead, soulless body.
Yun Wuji stretched out the hand holding the Heretic God's blood and pced it on the body's chest, iing the blood into it.
The moment the dark-red drop of blood ehe body, tens of bloodstain-like crimson lied wildly across the body, inating from his chest. The lines spread across his entire body in an instant, his chest, hands, legs, face, ears, and even his pupils were now filled with blood-colored els, resembling demonic markings.
Yun Wuji braced himself for the intense pain, recalling how Yun Che had undergoorturous process when he digested the drop of blood in the novel. However, to his surprise, the pain he experienced was not nearly as intense as he had anticipated. There was some disfort, but it was far from the excruciating agony he had expected.
'Right! I fot, this body doesn't have profound veins, so the process isn't as painful,' he suddenly realized.
Normally, if someoo use the Heretic God's blood, the blood would devour the existing Profound Veins and give birth to new ohe process of having your Profound Veins devoured was naturally excruciatingly painful.
"Did you really create this ing teique?" While he aying attention to his body, Jasmine's voice came from his side. She had e over to observe the body.
"Hmm, I created this teique when I was still a kid, I guess," Yun Wuji nodded casually, splitting his attention to trolling the body.
"..." Jasmine's iris shrank upon hearing his response. Although she had expected something like this, it still filled her with shod even a hint of fear! How could someone who hadn't even stepped into the Divine Way, and was still not yet in his twenties, have created a teique so exquisite and mysterious?
This man's genius is...is frightening!
After waiting for a long while, the body finally opes eyes and stood up. Yun Wuji took trol, guiding the body to circute its minuscule profound energy. As he focused, he noticed that only 11 profourances had opened.
Yun Wuji lifted his hand and pced it on the body's chest. The Sky Poison Pearl immediately emitted a beam of dark green light, which dissolved into the body and flowed through the Heretic God's profound veins.
In a few moments, all fifty-four Profourances were opened.
"...!!!" Jasmine's eyes widened, her lips parting in disbelief at the se.
" you please stop being shocked at every turn? Holy, it's getting annoying," Yun Wuji g her and said.
