Rencarnation Room {Other Story line}

Chapter 216: Behind El's Calm



Xiao Yi Xian fell silent, transfixed by the terrifying calmness of El's voice. She turned her head, looking at El who was now bowing his head and face unreadable.

Xiao Yi Xian wanted to speak, but El continued, her tone remaining cold, as if describing an endless void. "Ji is nothing more than a walking corpse, or even a blaze that cannot radiate warmth."

"Everything has been taken away relentlessly, and continues to be lost every second. In fact, Ji's own destiny killed Ji's family." El said flatly, but contained a depth that pierced the listener.

Xiao Yi Xian froze, transfixed by those words. For the first time, she sensed that there was something behind El's cold demeanor. That metaphor of "flames that cannot radiate warmth" now made sense.

Behind El's calm, seemingly untouchable demeanor was a deep emptiness. Xiao Yi Xian began to realize that perhaps, the suffering she was experiencing was not the only terrible tragedy that existed in this world.

In front of Xiao Yi Xian, stood a figure that looked so empty, someone who had lost everything, even himself.

However, behind that emptiness, there was something that kept him going, as if fighting against an aimless current.

Xiao Yi Xian looked at El with a curious look in her eyes, trying to understand how such a person could continue to live.

"How... How can someone like you life? If life is no different from death?" asked Xiao Yi Xian slowly, her tone of voice softer, almost a whisper.

El raised her head slowly. A faint smile appeared on his face, but it was not a smile of happiness. It was a smile of bitterness.

"That question... has already been asked by someone in the past, even our conversation too," El said softly, his voice almost a whisper.

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yi Xian looked at her curiously.

"Ji's answer remains the same," El replied in a light tone that contrasted with the heaviness in his eyes. "I don't know. Ji is also curious... whether Ji is still human, or has become something worse than a monster."

He paused for a moment, then continued, her voice calm yet heavy. "To live, Ji just follows where fate takes Ji. If fate wants life, Ji doesn't mind giving it."

That sentence hung in the air, as if bringing a chill into the room.

However, before Xiao Yi Xian could respond, El added, "But Ji would never let fate take Ji's life that easily. After all, Ji has promises and responsibilities."

Xiao Yi Xian fell silent, those words echoing in her mind. She could feel the deep truth behind El's every word.

However, amidst the silence, an idea came to her mind. With a look that now turned serious, she said, "Then, make a promise to me."

The words were simple, but had a power that seemed to shake.

Xiao Yi Xian stared at El with confidence, as if she had just discovered the only way to reach out to someone who had lost everything.

El looked at Xiao Yi Xian with a cold gaze that was hard to interpret, "Why do you want to make an appointment with Ji?"

"Does Xiao Yi want to know the secret of Ji's immunity to poison? If that's your reason, Ji can't give it." El said, his voice remaining flat without emotion.

That firm tone made Xiao Yi Xian pause for a moment. However, there was something in El's eyes that made her wonder, as if there was a deeper reason behind her refusal.

El noticed the wavering that began to appear on Xiao Yi Xian's face, but he maintained his stance.

In his mind, El could clearly understand what was at stake.

Sky Pearl Poison.

In the original world, Against the God, Sky Pearl Poison was one of the Seven Heavenly Treasures, ranked fifth, with extraordinary abilities in the fields of poison, medicine, refining, and even space manipulation.

What if Xiao Yi Xian had Sky Pearl Poison?

El could imagine many scenarios. Calamity Poison Body was already terrifying under normal conditions, coupled with Sky Pearl Poison was something even more extraordinary.

It could indeed make Xiao Yi Xian extremely powerful, not only preventing her body from exploding the poison, but also controlling the poison that was tormenting her.

However, in one brief thought, El was reminded of the story of Yun Che from Against the Gods.

Yun Che, in one of his lives had been chased by hundreds of enemies for the Sky Poison Pearl, which belonged to his Master, until he finally chose to commit suicide instead of handing it over.

Xiao Yi Xian, if she possessed these two powers, would not be an exception. She would become a walking artifact, attracting the attention of practitioners from all over, and her life would never be peaceful.

However, for El himself as the owner of the Sky Pearl Poison, El had developed a strategy to protect the secret of this artifact.

With the function of using the item, El can connect directly with Sky Pearl Poison without needing to reveal physical form.

This artifact works like a part of his body, allowing El to efficiently use his poison, purification, and space manipulation abilities.

Through digital mode, Sky Pearl Poison is hidden in a special space, making it completely undetectable by any method.

It only appears when El explicitly wants it to, providing maximum protection from those who target that.

However, that didn't mean El didn't have other ways to deal with Xiao Yi Xian's Calamity Poison Body. It was just that, she couldn't just hand over Sky Pearl Poison.

{Note: MC Bastard! Making me write this much for a simple reason? Damn it! Looks like I'm still too soft on you these days!}

El touched Xiao Yi Xian's hand to get his attention. "Ji can't tell you the secret of Ji's immunity to poison, but Ji has a way to help suppress your body."

Xiao Yi Xian looked at her with interest. "What do you mean? Explain."

"Ji can suppress the poison," El replied briefly and a clear voice was heard.

In his mind, El added, "For now only. After returning to the Reincarnation Room, I will look for a more definite solution to control it."

El had information from forums circulating on the internet: naturally, the Calamity Poison Body could not be cured.

However, it could still be controlled through the Poison Pill Method, a technique that collected all the poisons in one's body and turned them into Poison Pills.

Once the Poison Pill is formed, the Calamity Poison Body will develop into an extremely terrifying constitution, even approaching unimaginable strength.

The Dou Qi Continent had once witnessed a great disaster caused by people with Calamity Poison Body. However, no one had been able to reach this stage of refinement.

The reason was simple: the ingredients needed were too rare and almost impossible to find.

The Poison Pill refining process required three essential elements: Three Kinds of Heavenly Flame, Monster Core of Rank 7 Beast -Sky Poison Dragon Scorpion Beast- and Bodhisattva Body Transformation Saliva.

However, El had no intention of following those conventional refining methods. Instead, he devised an alternative approach by utilizing substitute materials that had similar or even stronger effects.

Those materials could be easily found in the Reincarnation Room Auction House and even other worlds.

Then, to combine all the materials, El only needed to use Rinnegan's Creation Of All Thing ability like he had done when combining Varanium and Black Transmitting Iron on Metsu.

El recalled her hard-earned understanding of Rinnegan in the Reincarnation Room Training House.

Creation of All Things is one of the highest abilities possessed by Rinnegan users.

Inside the Reincarnation Room training room, El practiced endlessly while facing Madara, Nagato, and even the Six Paths of Pain.

Through those battles, El not only survived and was killed hundreds of times, but also observed and learned the essence of the ability.

Eventually, El understood that Creation of All Things refers to the ability to create and manipulate matter and energy by combining two main forces: Yin Release and Yang Release.

Yin Release: Relates to spiritual energy and the power of imagination, allowing the user to create something out of "nothing" by mere thought or will.

Yang Release: Relates to physical energy, giving tangible form or life to what is created through Yin Release.

When these two elements are combined, Yin-Yang Release is created, an art that is capable of turning imagination into reality.

This technique not only creates matter but also has the potential to create a civilization of life, repair the body, and even reset the principles of death and life itself.
