My Daily Cultivation Life with a Clumsy Female Disciple

Chapter 368

Qin Ran's Divine Soul avatar's strength was primarily related to the power of the Divine Soul residing in the Water Avatar. The stronger the Divine Soul, the stronger the avatar. After all, the water he used to create the Water Avatar couldn't always be elixir water; most of the time, he used ordinary water.

The strength of the Divine Soul he separated each time was something he could decide for himself.

So far, he had used two types of Divine Soul avatars.

The first type, which was also the most basic, only separated a tiny portion of the Divine Soul to control the Water Avatar.

This type of Divine Soul avatar essentially only had the thinking ability of the main body, without the ability to control the Water Avatar in combat. Compared to the Water Avatar, this Divine Soul avatar merely had the added ability of independent thought.

Therefore, if this type of avatar died, the impact on the main body was negligible, about the same as the physical body being pricked by a needle - very painful, but harmless, fully recovering after a couple of days of rest.

The second type was a step further from the first type of Divine Soul avatar. Qin Ran separated more of his Divine Soul into the Water Avatar.

This type of Divine Soul avatar, besides having independent thinking ability, also possessed some combat power. Its Divine Soul was strong enough to control the Water Avatar to cast spells that the main body knew.

While powerful, if this type of avatar died, the impact on Qin Ran would be quite significant. If one died, Qin Ran would be weakened for at least a month.

The former was mostly used for scouting and deception. For example, when pursuing Jian Yuanjie, he mostly used this type of avatar for scouting, not minding if they died. Another example was when clearing out the Medicinal Hall, where several avatars appeared, most of which were this type of avatar used only for deception.

The latter was mostly used in scenarios that required some combat capability. For instance, when finally tricking Jian Yuanjie, combat might occur; or when going to Zhican Valley to purchase elixirs, to ensure the safety of the medicines; or when exploring the Xuan Qin military camp and sending a double agent to the Xuan Qin palace - these all used the latter type of avatar.

As can be seen, if one of these avatars was destroyed, Qin Ran's main body would be weakened for a long time, and he basically wouldn't take the initiative to cause trouble again.

The distinction between Qin Ran's Divine Soul avatars is mentioned here to explain what comes next.

Qin Ran decided to separate an avatar to send through the "ultra-long-distance one-way transmission array" he had constructed, to explore the situation at the array's destination.

This was his important backup plan, his guarantee for helping the Dao Sword Sect deal with Zhican Valley and the Boundless Sword Sect. It couldn't go wrong, so he needed to separate enough of his Divine Soul to construct a sufficiently powerful avatar.

He planned to separate one-tenth of his Divine Soul for this task. One-tenth of the Divine Soul could basically be considered a main Divine Soul.

Apart from the resource consumption, this was also why Qin Ran had been hesitating and unable to decide whether to activate the transmission array.

But now, with North Chu's affairs settled, he had returned to the sect, dealt with the accumulated matters in the Medicinal Hall, and Dan Peak was gradually getting on track. He had no choice but to restart this matter.

In the secret chamber beneath Dan Peak, two Qin Rans stood facing each other.

One Qin Ran was energetic, while the other was weak and frail.

The weak and frail Qin Ran was pale-faced, supporting himself on the platform that activated the array; the energetic Qin Ran stood in the center of the array pattern on the ground.

The two Qin Rans exchanged a glance, everything was understood without need for further communication. Having come this far, there was no turning back.

The energetic Qin Ran picked up the Universe Bag, carefully checking its contents. These were the things he would take to the other side of the transmission array; his life of luxury after going over depended on what was in here. It contained everything, including spirit stones, magical treasures, materials, elixirs, talismans, and so on.

The dispirited Qin Ran, extremely pained, took out two high-grade spirit stones and inlaid them into two gaps on the platform.

With the spirit stones inlaid and the supplies checked, the energetic Qin Ran looked at the dispirited Qin Ran and nodded, everything was ready.

The dispirited Qin Ran sighed, holding the array seal, and asked the energetic Qin Ran, "Are you ready?"

The energetic Qin Ran patted his chest, gave a salute, and said, "Ready at any time!!"

A dazzling white light flashed, and Qin Ran disappeared from the underground secret chamber.

Qin Ran emerged, mentally exhausted.

Now in the study, outside the study, Li Shiyin was knocking on the door: "Master? Are you in the study?"

He walked over, unlocked the door, pulled it open, and replied weakly at the same time, "Ye... Yes... I am."

As he spoke, the words in his mouth suddenly stopped, and so did the movement of his hand.

It was because of Li Shiyin outside the door.

She had put up her hair, adorned with the coquettish hairpin of a married woman, her black hair cascading over her left shoulder, falling onto her snow-white skin like a wedding dress.

She was wearing a white dress, very beautiful, but... very thin. So thin that it couldn't hide her fair skin, which was faintly visible through the dress.

Qin Ran could even clearly see the corset inside her dress, and her figure was so good that the corset's ability was quite limited...

Endless temptation.

This sight stunned Qin Ran! What... was going on?

Extremely shy, Li Shiyin lowered her head, her hands crossed in front of her body, fidgeting with each other. The usually confident girl's voice was smaller than a mosquito's.

She asked, "Master, do I look good?"

Qin Ran came to his senses, unconsciously looking his silly disciple up and down, then back to her face that was red as if dripping blood. He swallowed and replied, "You... you look good!"

Li Shiyin slowly raised her head, her gaze inexperienced yet alluring. She looked at Qin Ran, but seeing her master's dumbfounded expression, she felt a bit annoyed and said again, "Ma... Master?"

Qin Ran felt a fire burning in his body, his blood boiling in his veins, his physical body celebrating wildly, urging him to do something human; but at the same time, his Divine Soul was extremely empty and weak, making him want to retreat and lie down to sleep.

As his physical body became more and more excited, his Divine Soul became weaker and weaker.

He raised his hand, wanting to caress his silly disciple, her hand or shoulder, anywhere would do, but as soon as he raised it, he froze.

His hand stopped in mid-air, but he moved his body aside, saying, "Come in quickly... Don't, don't catch a cold."

Li Shiyin felt confused. Why was this different from what sister-in-law had said? Why hadn't her master turned into a beast and pounced on her?

She frowned slightly, thinking that her master wanted to be more reserved, so she took the initiative again, reaching out to hold her master's hand.

After holding his hand, she remembered what sister-in-law had taught her, and then interlaced her fingers with her master's one by one.

"Buzz!"

Feeling the soft and smooth fingers of his silly disciple, Qin Ran's blood instantly surged, his long hair "whoosh" stood on end, and his nose began to bleed.

But at the same time, he couldn't keep his eyes open, he was so tired...

He exerted force, pulling his silly disciple into the study.

Then, unable to control his strength, he fell backward helplessly with his own momentum.

Li Shiyin was an invincible prodigy, at this moment she had ten thousand ways to support her master.

But she didn't.

Her long legs hooked the study door closed, and she fell down together with her master.

They were about the same height, so she pressed her whole body and heart onto her master.

"Master?" She called out to her master in a hoarse voice.

But after waiting for a while, she received no response from her master.

She opened her eyes and looked down...

Only to find that her master had fainted.
