Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1742 In the Deadly Game 29

To make matters worse, when everyone was returning to the dormitory, they suddenly found two newcomers at the password box, trying out the passwords one by one.

Ling Jiushi kindly reminded: "The box monster would not leave such an obvious loophole..."

The other party showed no sign of appreciation. "But trying passwords is normal behavior. If you're jealous of our numbers, then I have nothing to say."

Jiang Xinxin couldn't help but retort, "Are you blind? There are three of us here, and you only have two. How can you say there are more people? You're such a grown-up, but you can't even count. This is the first time I've seen that."

The two girls had always disliked Jiang Xinxin for her arrogant look, and when they heard Jiang Xinxin's harsh words, they were about to stand up and try to figure out the password. As a result, they actually figured out the password after a few tries. The two girls were very proud of themselves, and Jiang Xinxin reached out to rescue her, but ended up grabbing air.

Ruan Lanzhu watched the password box swallow the two of them, and could only sigh and say, "Respect the fate of others."

Ling Jiushi thought for a moment and said, "It seems that killing the box monster is much more difficult than finding the key. We should pay more attention to the key."

Jiang Xinxin shook her head. "No, finding the key is more difficult. Killing the box monster is easy for me."

Jiang Xinxin smiled at Ruan Lanzhu and said, "When we were in the lobby downstairs, you talked a lot about the box demon. Maybe it's already set its sights on you. So, you better think carefully and see if you can catch it before you find the key."

Hearing Jiang Xinxin say that the box monster had set its sights on Ruan Lanzhu, Ling Jiushi immediately became worried. "Then we must pay attention to what others have opened from the box so that we can respond in time!"

Ruan Lanzhu smiled casually and comforted Ling Jiushi, saying, "I know, I know. Miss Jiang is still here. Since killing the box monster is easier than finding the key, what do we have to be afraid of?"

Ling Jiushi didn't doubt Jiang Xinxin's abilities, but everyone was mainly trying to purify the game and shut it down. "If we kill the box monster, will that affect the game's purification and closing?"

Jiang Xinxin said with a relaxed expression, "While purifying the entire world of the door is indeed a bit tricky, simply killing the box monster and closing this door is still quite easy."

Jiang Xinxin further explained, "The door gods we've passed before all have some conscience. As long as they wake up and regain their sanity, they will naturally stop being troubled by resentment and hostility."

"But the box demon is different. It was dismembered and sealed because of its numerous evil deeds. So it can't be reformed, and there's no need to reform it. Just let its soul scatter."

Ruan Lanzhu was fine. As for the extremely dangerous door god like the box monster, he certainly agreed to completely eliminate it.

However, Ling Jiushi was still a little worried. "Ms. Jiang, do you have any solution? The box monster has been dismembered. If a piece is missing, will it have a chance to come back?"

Ling Jiushi's concerns were completely unreasonable. After all, the world of the door would be refreshed before the door was opened next time, regardless of whether anyone had passed it or not. If one was not careful, all the work might be in vain.

But this wasn't a problem at all for Jiang Xinxin. She smiled and asked Ling Jiushi, "Have you ever heard of the legends about various strange fires, Lingling?"

Ling Jiushi understood a little bit about what Jiang Xinxin meant. Curiously, he switched seats with Ruan Lanzhu and moved closer to Jiang Xinxin. He asked expectantly, "Miss Jiang, do you have that legendary strange fire?"

Ruan Lanzhu was also very interested. "I've been surfing the internet, and whether it's online novels or so-called classics, there are countless references to various kinds of strange fire. The most famous ones are the Sun's True Fire and the Southern Ming Fire. Even everyone may have heart fire in their body."

Jiang Xinxin smiled and said, "Some strange fires do exist. For example, I have the Sun's True Fire, the Glazed Pure Fire, and the Red Lotus Karma Fire. Of course, I should also have Heart Fire, but unfortunately, I don't have a flesh and blood body, so I can't condense this Heart Fire."

Ruan Lanzhu's expression changed instantly. He carefully looked Jiang Xinxin up and down, but he didn't realize that Jiang Xinxin was actually a person without substance just like him before!

Ling Jiushi was stunned and doubted his ears.

Jiang Xinxin chuckled softly and casually chatted with everyone about the characteristics of the strange fire: "This true solar fire is considered the hottest flame in the universe. Because of its pure yang nature, it is more effective against all evil spirits, except for when it is less effective against demonic energy;"

"As for the Glazed Pure Fire, the key is the word 'pure'. It targets all impurities. Demonic energy happens to be turbid energy, which can be considered impure, so its effect is quite obvious."

"The Red Lotus Karma Fire is simple. It only targets sinful karma. Its effect on the physical body is very limited, and it is more likely to target the soul."

"Dealing with the box monster is relatively simple. No matter which kind of strange fire we use, it will be completely destroyed."

Ling Jiushi nodded repeatedly. As a game planner, he was very familiar with online literature. Since the topic had reached this point, he simply continued to ask, "So, do things like the ten innate spiritual roots mentioned in online literature really exist?"

Jiang Xinxin carefully checked her space and finally replied, "As for the ten innate spiritual roots, I've only seen peaches, and only peaches, and they are all second-generation species. I haven't seen the others, so I can't answer you."

"But I have the Three Lights Divine Water. It's the divine water that Guanyin used to heal Zhen Yuanzi's ginseng fruit tree, which Sun Wukong knocked over in Wuzhuang Temple in Journey to the West. It's the water that Guanyin used to heal the ginseng fruit tree by dipping a willow branch from the suet jade bottle. It's truly effective for healing physical injuries; it's a real life-saving tool that can actually bring the dead back to life."

Ruan Lanzhu's mind moved, and he asked tentatively, "When you told me to find a master, did that mean that in real life, there are people who cultivate spiritual power like in novels?"

Jiang Xinxin didn't care about Ruan Lanzhu's temptation at all, and she also noticed Ling Jiushi's secret excitement. There was nothing to hide. The world of the door had appeared, so what was so strange about a cultivator coming out?

"Generally speaking, as long as there is spiritual power, one can practice. Even if one cannot cultivate immortality, at least one can practice the high-level martial arts described in novels."

"The problem is, some of the inheritances have been lost, and times have changed. Most people simply can't reach the required state of mind. So even if you have the correct technique, it's still a huge challenge to get started."

Despite this, Ling Jiushi's heart was still pounding with excitement, and he wanted to kneel down and worship Jiang Xinxin as his master.

Jiang Xinxin naturally stepped aside and directly refused: "Lingling, you don't have the qualifications to practice martial arts."
