Above the girl"s head, there was a faint golden light.
Under Chen Heng"s gaze, the Fortune was incredibly eye-catching, and it was difficult to miss even if he wanted to.
Evidently, she was also someone who had Fortune, and even though it was weaker than Liu Li"s Fortune, it was still stronger than Chen Heng"s in the past.
With such Fortune and talent, this girl would have no limits in the future.
Moreover, that was not all.
Following this, Chen Heng looked between Liu Li and Liu Yi.
As he activated his Fortune Mark, he realized something—there seemed to be a connection between Liu Li and Liu Yi.
Their fates and Fortunes seemed to be connected. This was even more terrifying.
They were not just individual people with Fortune but two people with Fortune connected together. This was more terrifying than all individuals with Fortune.
What others would face when facing a single one of them was not just one person with Fortune but two.
Seeing this scene, Chen Heng"s mouth twitched.
It could be said that given that these two"s Fortunes had been connected, the strength of their Fortune made even Chen Heng feel startled.
With such powerful Fortune, no matter how grave the danger they faced, that danger would turn into an opportunity.
Right now, Chen Heng thought to himself. If he suddenly attacked these two people, what would happen?
He was already half-crippled and his cultivation foundation had essentially been destroyed. However, he still had the power of a True Lord.
If he wanted to, he could temporarily burst out with his peak power again.
On the other hand, even though these two had immense Fortune, they were still just two mortals.
Facing his strength, they would not be able to resist at all and would be blasted to death.
Those who were bound by fate naturally could not do so; even if they had the power to do so, because of the control fate had over them, they would not think about it.
However, Chen Heng was different.
As a transmigrator, he was a variable and was more or less out of the control of fate.
Adding on the support from the Fortune Mark, he could temporarily break free from the sky net and do as he wished.
As such, if he wanted to act against these two people, he could do so.
Right now, Chen Heng was quite curious towards them.
If he tried to kill them, what would happen?
Would he succeed? Or, because of their Fortune, would he end up failing somehow?
Chen Heng thought to himself and felt like trying it out as an experiment.
Based on his experiences, as he went into more simulations, he would face more people like Liu Li.
Since this was the case, he might as well use this opportunity to do some experiments while he had nothing to lose.
After all, even if he did not do anything, he would die in a few years.
As for the Points? Teaching these two people and changing their fates could net him many Points, but directly killing them would have much influence as well.
At the very least, the number of Points he would obtain would be incredible.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng felt incredibly tempted to attack them.
However, in the end, he did not do so.
It was as if the Fortune Mark could sense his thoughts, and it gave off a light that seemed like a warning, stopping him.
A wave of energy appeared in Chen Heng"s body from the Fortune Mark.
Following this, various scenes unfolded before his eyes—they were scenes of the future.
In the scene, Chen Heng suddenly attacked, using his True Lord power, slamming his palm towards them.
Spirit energy raged outside, billowing like a storm.
Liu Li and Liu Yi"s faces displayed confusion, unable to understand why Chen Heng had suddenly attacked them.
They could not understand, nor could they react, and they could only watch as the palm slammed towards them.
Everything seemed like it would go smoothly.
However, at the most crucial moment, something surprising happened.
Surging evil qi suddenly rushed out of Liu Li"s body, exploding out.
In front of his chest, a black gemstone flew out and blocked in front of him, and the image of an elder seemed to appear.
Compared to the True Lord power that Chen Heng had unleashed, this elder"s power was not any inferior. It seemed to be on the same level as Chen Heng"s power, and it was extremely terrifying.
It seemed that he had been attached to Liu Li and had only appeared when Liu Li was in critical danger.
The power between the two of them clashed.
In the end, after risking his life, Chen Heng was able to beat back the elder, causing his image to disappear.
Following this, Chen Heng"s gaze was cold as he once again slammed out his palm.
By now, he had beat back that elder and there was nothing else that could stop him.
It was just that this palm of his was still blocked.
A slim arm stretched out, blocking this strike.
Chen Heng instinctively looked to the side, his expression one of shock.
The little girl, Liu Yi, stood there, but her appearance had greatly changed.
Her expression was incredibly cold and there was a complicated blue diagram on her forehead that gave off a mystical power. She seemed to have power that surpa.s.sed that of True Lords and blocked Chen Heng.
Liu Yi"s expression was stiff as her eyes became a pure blue color, "No… You"re not allowed to harm my big brother…"
Ma.s.sive amounts of frost descended, covering this area.
Following this, the scene shattered and disappeared.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Heng could not help but look to the side.
In front of him, Liu Li and Liu Yi were still kneeling in front of him with respectful looks.
Seeing this, Chen Heng"s mouth twitched and he immediately cast off any thoughts of attacking.
He silently thought to himself, "So these are people immensely blessed by Fortune? This is a bit too ridiculous."
Both of them were incredibly terrifying.
One had an old monster attached to him, who was not much weaker than Chen Heng, and the other one seemed to have special circ.u.mstances of her own.
Neither of them were people Chen Heng could go up against.
They seemed incredibly respectful now, but once they were cornered, they would become incredibly savage.
Compared to these two people, even Chen Heng felt quite inferior.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Heng shook his head and said, "It"s fine. Your sister"s talent is very good."
She looked at Liu Yi with a kindly smile and said, "If you don"t mind, would you like to also become my disciple?"
Hearing Chen Heng"s words, Liu Li did not hesitate as he looked delighted and said, "It would be Yi Yi"s fortune to be teacher"s disciple. Yi Yi, quickly pay your respects to teacher."
Liu Yi seemed a bit confused, but looking at her brother, she obediently nodded and earnestly kowtowed.
Following this, Chen Heng smiled and patted Liu Yi"s head before pa.s.sing the cultivation technique to her.
He then thought to himself before taking out some things.
"The spirit qi here is quite thin, and just internalizing spirit qi will not be enough.
"You can have these spirit pills; take one per day, and the effects should be quite good."
Chen Heng spoke as he looked at Liu Li and Liu Yi and smiled.
Looking at the spirit pills that Chen Heng took out, Liu Li"s eyes burned.
At the same time, he felt the distance between them.
He had essentially begged Chen Heng to take him as a disciple, but it was Chen Heng who had taken the initiative to take Liu Yi in.
Moreover, she had received such a big present as soon as she had become his disciple.
Fortunately, Liu Li was already used to all of this and did not mind too much.
After all, Liu Yi was his little sister.
For her to receive good things, he was naturally happy.
"You can go," Chen Heng smiled as he said.
Looking at Chen Heng, Liu Li did not hesitate and left with Liu Yi.
Sitting on the bed and looking at Liu Li and Liu Yi departing, Chen Heng slowly closed his eyes.
Time gradually pa.s.sed.
In the following days, Chen Heng remained at this place to teach Liu Li and Liu Yi.
Although Liu Li"s body had issues, his comprehension was very outstanding.
Even some things that true cultivators would find hard to understand were easily comprehended by him.
As for Liu Yi, this was even more so the case—her talent and comprehension were all top-notch.
If it wasn"t for the fact that she was still young and Chen Heng had suppressed the progress of her cultivation, she might have already completed Foundation Building.
Soon, one year had pa.s.sed.
Outside, Liu Li was wearing a beastskin cloak and had a wild boar on his back as he slowly walked in.
After one year, he had gone through many changes. Not only was his figure more well-built and taller, but his aura had also greatly changed, becoming much more confident.
During this year, after having his body cleansed many times by Chen Heng using magic energy, his body had finally become better. Even though it was still quite difficult for him, he could internalize qi by himself.
His qi internalizing speed was still quite slow, but with spirit stones and spirit pills from Chen Heng, his speed was not too bad.
After putting down the wild boar, he went towards the innermost room.
Before he entered, he could hear light coughing from within.
Hearing these sounds, he frowned.
"Teacher"s body still has not recovered," hearing the coughing from within, he could not help but sigh.
After one year had pa.s.sed, his surroundings had greatly changed.
Liu Yi had completed Foundation Building and was beginning to go through Qi Refining. She was on the path of cultivation and had become a cultivator.
What was worrying was that Chen Heng"s body still had not recovered.
On the other hand, it seemed that whatever was ailing him was becoming worse and worse.
Half a year ago, Chen Heng looked normal, apart from his face being a bit pale.
However, now, he would often cough to the point that his body sometimes trembled, making Liu Li feel pained.
It was just that he was unable to do anything about this.
At the end of the day, he was still a mortal who had not even completed Foundation Building; what could he do?
Standing there, he sighed before walking in.
Within the room, Chen Heng was sitting on the bed as he continuously coughed.
His face was incredibly pale and had no color to it.
Standing in front of him, Liu Yi wore white robes and was gently patting his back with a look of worry on her face.
"Teacher."
Seeing Chen Heng like this, a look of worry appeared on Liu Li"s face.
"You"re back."
Sitting on the bed and looking at Liu Li, Chen Heng smiled before pointing, "Have a seat."
"How were your gains this time?" he asked.
"Not too bad. I caught some prey.," Liu Li said honestly.
Chen Heng smiled and said, "Not bad. Perhaps it is because of your body, even without completing Foundation Building, you have done well with the Body Forging Technique from the Feather Scripture.
"Normal beasts will not be able to harm you. For you to reach this level, I am at ease."
Following this, he began to cough again.
"Teacher."
Liu Yi looked at Chen Heng worriedly, wanting to say something but stopping herself.
Chen Heng shook his head, "It"s fine. I"m alright. You two can go out; I want to rest."
Liu Li opened his mouth but chose not to say anything. In the end, he did not say anything and left with Liu Yi.
After they left, the door was closed, leaving behind only Chen Heng.
He sat on the bed and shook his head.
"It"s getting worse and worse…" he lightly coughed, a bit of blood appearing on his palm.
Looking at the blood, he felt quite frustrated, "Things have become this bad so quickly."
His body"s decline was faster than he had expected.
He had thought that he would be able to last for three or four years, but now, it seemed that two years would be his limit.
Moreover, the changes in Liu Li and Liu Yi were faster than he thought as well.
Recently, he had found that their Fortune had become more active and showed signs of breaking out.
Fortune breaking out indicated that they were going to break free from their current circ.u.mstances and begin to rise up.
He just wondered how it would happen.
As their Fortune began to break out, Chen Heng made a decision.
Chen Heng smiled, "It"s just a pity that I"ll never know just how far you"ll go."
Thinking to there, he felt that it was quite a pity.
On the other side, Liu Li was sitting in front of a small creek as he sighed and thought to himself, "Teacher"s illness is becoming worse and worse…"
Even though Chen Heng said he was fine, Liu Li could tell that he was just hanging on.
If his situation became worse and worse, then…
Thinking to there, he felt quite sad.
Over the past year, he had really come to see Chen Heng as his teacher.
During this year, after taking in Liu Li and Liu Yi as his disciples, he had patiently taught them, as well as provided them with large amounts of spirit pills and spirit stones.
For someone to treat them so well, it was incredibly rare.
Even though Liu Li had just wanted to use Chen Heng at the start, in the end, he really did begin to think of him as his teacher.
"There have been rumors that Golden Dragon Gra.s.s has appeared in the Desolate Forest. It"s a peerless medicine and if I can get some, perhaps…"
Standing in front of the creek, he looked in a certain direction as he suddenly thought to himself.
It was said that someone found some Golden Dragon Gra.s.s in the depths of the Desolate Forest.
As soon as this news was spread, many people began to gather there.
