Chapter 694 Clone
This sudden turn of events instantly ignited a storm on the mainland.
There wasn't much objection to Zhong Ran becoming number one; what people were concerned about was what exactly happened with Zhong Yan.
Some speculate that Zhong Yan disappeared after entering the Forest of Death and remained there forever, which is why the Heavenly Mystery Array could not detect his presence and thus removed him from the list.
Some people say that Zhong Yan has become a cripple and is being kept by Zhong Ran's side.
A disabled person naturally cannot be on the popularity list anymore.
No matter how much they speculate, it's useless, because the popularity chart doesn't explain the reason.
But as everyone knows, the righteous path is missing one Zhong Yan.
The strength of Zhong Ran and Mu Jinning was also spread, not by the Wind and Cloud Ranking, but by the evil geniuses.
Even cultivators at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage have no chance to fight back against them.
Everyone guessed that they must have already advanced to the Void Refinement Realm.
Before the opening of the Great Wilderness Secret Realm, they weren't even at the Nascent Soul stage.
In less than three years, the two of them had already reached the Void Refinement Realm.
In other words, they advanced to a higher realm in about a year.
Such talent and speed of advancement put immense pressure on geniuses.
This poses an even more terrifying pressure to the evil and demonic paths.
On the kill list of both the evil and demonic paths, Mu Jinning, Zhong Ran, and Asheng became the primary targets.
However, Zhong Ran knew nothing about any of this.
After several days, she and Mu Jinning finally managed to set up a large spirit-gathering array by utilizing the natural terrain.
The spiritual energy here suddenly became denser, and the power of the array was used to draw the dense spiritual energy into the soil.
Afterwards, Zhong Ran used some of the power of the Earth Source Pearl to open a passage and send the old man into the mountain's belly.
Inside the mountain is a small cave, and the cave walls are engraved with spirit-gathering arrays, which draw in spiritual energy for the old man to recuperate.
"I've filled out the passage for you, so you can be truly safe."
She stood in front of the old man, her voice much softer: "I wish you a speedy recovery and that you can go out on your own soon."
The old man lay there lazily, like a pile of withered bones.
"I'm sorry for causing you trouble these past few days. Go on, go take care of your own business."
Zhong Ran was a little embarrassed: "It's not trouble at all, and I should thank you for your guidance, senior."
She bowed respectfully to Mu Jinning before turning to leave.
After leaving, she formed a hand seal, blocking the passage.
In this way, no one would discover him, and he could stay safely inside the mountain and cultivate and recover properly.
She did want to leave him some pills, but he couldn't even speak, so the pills wouldn't be of much use.
After doing all this, the two looked at each other, tore through the void, and left.
This was Zhong Ran's first time doing this, but she already had some understanding of space, so she did it without any hesitation.
When they reappeared, they were still in the forest, but this time there was a waterfall.
She released Ah Sheng and Zhong Yan's clones.
The clone had been in the space for so long, and the spiritual energy inside was so rich that it began to cultivate on its own. At this point, it had already reached the peak of Qi Refining.
"Is the talent of the clone the same as that of the main body?"
Zhong Ran curiously examined the clone, who timidly called out "Sister".
She smiled. Zhong Yan went to the underworld, but left her with a clone. That seemed pretty good.
"Don't worry, I'll prepare the cultivation resources for you. Just focus on your cultivation."
"I'll still call you Xiao Yan, is that alright?"
Since Zhong Yan himself isn't here, this is his clone, so naturally it's called Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan nodded again, displaying an extremely obedient demeanor, which reminded Zhong Ran of how he looked when she first found him.
My heart softened for no reason, and I gave him some food.
"You haven't fasted yet, you still need to eat. Here's a spatial ring for you, it contains prepared food, so don't go hungry."
She then took out a large spatial ring and handed it to Ah Sheng: "Ah Sheng, this is the meat your sister prepared for you. It should be enough for you to eat for a while."
"Thank you, sister." Ah Sheng happily accepted it, her curious gaze still lingering on Zhong Yan's clone.
"Sister, why does the little brother look different?"
"Oh, this is his clone. He doesn't have much cultivation right now. Ah Sheng, you have to protect your little brother in the future and make sure no one bullies him."
Ah Sheng scratched his head: "A clone? How do you create clones? Can Ah Sheng create clones too? Wouldn't it be awesome to have multiple Ah Shengs fighting together?"
Zhong Ran laughed. Yes, if there were multiple clones, all equally powerful, it would indeed be very cool to fight with them.
“Your cultivation system is different from ours. Whether you can cultivate an avatar is really unknown. You'll have to figure it out yourself.”
"Then how did you cultivate your clones? Ah Sheng wants to learn too."
Zhong Ran looked at Mu Jinning and smiled: "Jinning, shouldn't you start cultivating your clone technique too?"
He had reached the Void Refinement Realm before, but he hadn't had time to cultivate his clone. Then Zhong Yan disappeared, and they came out not long after, so they still hadn't had time to cultivate their clone.
Mu Jinning then smiled and said, "Asheng, I'm starting to cultivate and create clones. You watch and then figure it out yourself."
Ah Sheng's situation is special; even his meridians are different. Whether he can cultivate an avatar is truly unknown.
Mu Jinning began cultivating, and Asheng sat beside him, eating meat while watching him cultivate.
Zhong Ran and Zhong Yan walked to the edge of the pool to clean the monster meat. She asked her clone with some curiosity.
"Xiao Yan, do you also possess all of his memories?"
Xiao Yan chuckled: "Sister, yes, the memories before were the same, but later we each experienced different things, so the memories will be different too."
"Can you share your experiences and memories?"
If we could share this information, we would know what Zhong Yan is like in the underworld.
Xiao Yan shook her head: "No, but when we meet again in the future, we can check the memories of the divided soul."
Zhong Ran felt a little regretful; it would have been so much better if they could have shared it.
"Are clones also forms of devouring divine bodies?"
"nature."
What is a clone? It means that you have the same physique and skills, which is equivalent to having an identical version of yourself.
"That's good, it will make cultivation much faster."
Devouring a divine body is great; it will make cultivation much faster.
"However, do not rush things, take it slow."
Previously, their cultivation had been too hasty, especially hers. Because she had stayed at the eighth level of Qi Refining for too long, she had fallen far behind. After being able to advance, she continued to advance rapidly.
Recently, she has decided not to pursue any further promotions and instead focuses on honing other skills.
At the same time, she also wanted to cultivate her clone after she had fully mastered the Chaos Divine Body, which should be much better.
Otherwise, she wouldn't know if the clones she cultivated would also face the same difficulties as before.
