Chapter 226: 237

Duanmu Yin's crisp voice echoed throughout the silent lab, but the only response that greeted her was Gu Nan's expressionless face.

"Perhaps you’re mistaken about something." Gu Nan stood up after hearing her explanation, scratching his head slightly.

"What did you say?" Duanmu Yin said with a cold face, "Are you even aware of just what level of existence Zuo Zuo is? You—"

Stab!

Gu Nan's shadow sword pierced her chest, depriving her of all vitality in front of Duanmu Yin's disbelieving eyes.

This girl who claimed to be a split soul of Zi Yi slowly collapsed in front of Gu Nan.

Gu Nan slowly walked up to her corpse and looked down at it. The power of shadows in his hand spilled down uniformly. There was no emotion on his face.

Gu Nan didn't believe a word Duanmu Yin said.

Of course, he knew that there must be credible parts to her story, but for players, if the known facts weren’t enough to judge the truthfulness of each sentence, then it was better to not believe the NPC’s entire story.

Under Gu Nan’s control, the power of shadows containing the law of resurrection slowly took effect on the girl's dead body.

He was trying to manually manipulate the law of resurrection in order to have a more meticulous revival that would retain the deceased soul as much as possible.

A very important feature of the Evil God game was that it was extremely concerned about details and authenticity. Besides the Evil God Temple, players could hardly feel that this was a game.

Not only did the disciplines in the game all have their own serious setups, but even the applications of the various laws could be manually manipulated, unlike skills, which were activated with the click of a button.

Gu Nan had used the law of resurrection over a hundred times, which was enough for a top player like him to sum up the rules behind this law.

The soul wouldn’t dissipate immediately after death, and the more intact the corpse was, the slower the soul would dissipate.

To create a body through resurrection, he first had to repair the damaged parts with the power of shadows, then slowly replace all of a carbon-based lifeform’s biological operations bit by bit. Only then would the whole resurrection process be completed.

Usually, Gu Nan wasn’t willing to do this, because it would make him very tired, and he’d need to expend a lot of energy.

"It’s a good thing that this body is only at Innate Realm, or else who knows how long it would take. Her soul might’ve even vanished by the time I’m done," Gu Nan muttered to himself.

After all, he was a player who walked the combat route. Even if he had played the necromancer route of patching up corpses all day before, the cleverest housewife cannot cook without rice—he currently had too few skills in this area.

After a moment, Gu Nan finally sighed in relief and slowly withdrew his hand.

“Tell me, how much of your memories did you retain?" Gu Nan's voice contained rare traces of exhaustion. This kind of extremely delicate and entirely manual manipulation of law really wasn’t something humans should be doing.

"Yes, Master," Duanmu Yin stood up and answered emotionlessly.

Compared with those "shoddy" resurrection jobs in Immortal Demon World, her body was much more normal. At first glance, she looked no different from before her death.

Because the corpse was well-preserved and hadn’t been sliced apart by shadow clones, this shadow servant even inherited an intact body. It’s just that her heart no longer beat and her blood no longer flowed.

In place of her blood was pitch-black shadow, which made her whole person look a bit dark.

If you cut her open right now, you’d find balls of black shadow inside all the blood vessels in her body, both large and small.

"I'm… Zi Yi… Zi Yi's clone. My true body is in Zi Luo Heaven, injured," Duanmu Yin seemed to be trying hard to remember. Her words were intermittent.

Gu Nan nodded slightly. It was impossible for shadow servants to lie to him. This proved that the previous Zi Yi was indeed not telling the truth.

Her true body was clearly still alive, although perhaps she really was injured by Zuo Zuo. However, this was normal. If it was Gu Nan in her position, he would certainly hide his own condition as well.

"With the clone’s help… heal the true body…"

"What else?"

"Zuo Zuo… strongest under the Thirteen Heavens.”

"What are the Thirteen Heavens?" Gu Nan asked with a frown, but after Duanmu Yin thought for a moment, she finally shook her head slowly. Clearly, she didn’t retain this part of her memories.

The memories she could still retain were almost certainly memories that left the deepest impressions on her back when she was alive, as well as memories of matters she was most concerned about.

If a memory was general knowledge, then it was normal for her to forget it.

Words began to pour out of Duanmu Yin’s mouth again, but most of them were either useless information or nouns that Gu Nan couldn't understand at all.

Until she mentioned a topic that suddenly caught Gu Nan’s attention.

"Gu Nan… entered Starry Road early… secret."

"Think a little more carefully about this one," Gu Nan hurriedly interrupted her, his heart sinking slightly.

The fact that the shadow servant said such a sentence meant that Zi Yi actually saw through his true cultivation realm as well—among the three Star Rulers back then, the junior Qiu Wenran was probably the only person who truly believed that Gu Nan was also a Star Ruler.

"Star Ruler, truly a dangerous thing." Gu Nan's gaze was slightly cold. But even so, he still couldn’t give up on personal dungeons. Even if he was drinking poison to quench his thirst, he must still drink it.

He couldn’t level up without points, so wouldn’t he be stuck at Tier 4 forever?

"Lead him… find… Duanmu family's ancestral tomb… site of the lost…" Duanmu Yin finally managed to utter these words and couldn’t give more details.

However, Gu Nan was relieved. His biggest fear was not having any clues at all. As long as there was a path in front of him, he could always find out more while walking on that path.

"The Duanmu family’s ancestral tomb?" Gu Nan rubbed his chin. This directional clue was enough.

Zi Yi clearly didn’t just randomly choose to possess this girl; rather, it was intentional.

At that moment, the lab door was pushed open again, and Duanmu Nianlan appeared at the door, while there was a member of White Mist beside her trying desperately to persuade her.

"My Lord, this is the organization’s forbidden area. You—"

"Little Yin, it's great that you're okay," Duanmu Nianlan completely ignored him and said with relief.

It’s just that when combined with her eternally stiff expression and toneless voice, it sounded very strange.

Gu Nan glanced at her, then manipulated the shadow servant to go forward and ask, "Sis…ter, where is our family’s ancestral tomb?"

"Ancestral tomb?" Duanmu Nianlan revealed some rare hesitance. "Of course it's in our home back on Floral Jasper Star. Why do you ask?"

Floral Jasper Star was one of the main planets in the Central Region. This Gu Nan knew.

A location clue like this was already enough.

A smile appeared on Gu Nan’s face, and even Duanmu Yin, his shadow servant, started smiling eerily. This smile really looked a bit scary when it mysteriously appeared on a young girl’s face.

The next moment, Gu Nan's fist had already descended. The blow carrying the power to nullify all laws suddenly rained down with unparalleled strength.

"You…" Duanmu Nianlan reacted extremely quickly. Although she just said one word, her whole body had already moved.

She immediately returned a punch. There seemed to be some kind of illusion behind her. It was an imposing and solemn image of a god, glaring at Gu Nan coldly.

Eastern Shinto!
