Chapter 243
Jingliu knew very well that this matter could not be rushed.
After all, she had waited for so many years.
Moreover.
If someone really told her they could bring the dead back to life immediately, she would instead be afraid to believe it.
Hearing Jingliu's answer, Lin Qi nodded and said no more, instead turning back to the laboratory on the ship.
He had gained a lot from this trip.
Qiong Sang, the remains of the Swarm King, the former Sword Champion of the Luo Fu...
And a fox.
Each one required time to study.
But they were all of great value.
Lin Qi thought about it briefly and decided to rank these matters by difficulty.
From easy to hard.
The hardest was definitely resurrecting the "dead."
Even the Time Cloth couldn't do that.
Next was researching the Aeons.
Actually, this difficulty wasn't particularly high; it was just hard to research thoroughly.
So it required a lot of time.
Then there was Qiong Sang.
Don't look at the fact that Lin Qi had already revived it; he hadn't fully solved its characteristics or the eradication of the Abundance's divine power.
Finally, or rather the easiest, was actually resurrecting Tingyun.
She was very different from the person Jingliu spoke of.
For one.
Tingyun wasn't completely dead yet.
For another.
The person Jingliu spoke of was from hundreds of years ago.
After such a long time, without protective measures, she would likely have long since turned into a pile of dry bones.
Besides...
The cause of that person's death must also be very complex.
Looking at Jingliu's appearance, Lin Qi could guess roughly.
However, Lin Qi didn't intend to get the answer from her; he prepared to ask Xueyi later.
As a Judge of the Ten-Lords Commission, she certainly wouldn't know little.
After some consideration.
Lin Qi had a decision in mind.
Immediately.
He dove his consciousness into the Synesthetic Dream and arrived at a sea of flowers deep in a valley.
At this time.
A person was standing here.
A black-haired woman of the Foxian race.
"You seem to be adapting quite well?" Lin Qi asked softly.
"Oh my, it's the Benefactor."
Tingyun hurriedly turned around, bowed first, and then said, "This little woman is usually busy with business, running between so many galactic factions, and rarely has time for long rests. This time, I finally have some leisure, so I must stop and take a look, right? Speaking of which, I have to thank the Benefactor for this... um... the dream you created, Benefactor, is just like the real thing! The sea of flowers in this valley is the place I like to come to most."
Tingyun looked at the sea of flowers and continued, "It's so nice! The flowers in the dream will never wither. Sometimes I think, if I were a fox, and not a Foxian, and could run freely in a place like this, wouldn't that also be a wonderful thing?"
"It seems you quite like it here." Lin Qi smiled, "Since that's the case, I won't be in a hurry to restore you."
Tingyun's beautiful eyes widened suddenly.
She was even stunned for a moment.
But she quickly reacted, her tone sweet to the point of being cloying.
"Don't, Benefactor."
"Although it's nice here, there's no human activity; this little woman still likes lively places."
"Besides, in this state, how can I repay the Benefactor~"
Lin Qi found it somewhat funny and stopped teasing her.
He replied.
"Before I restore you, there are some things that must be made clear to you first."
"Go ahead, Benefactor, this little woman is listening." Tingyun looked focused.
Lin Qi nodded and said, "It's like this: under the influence of the Lord Ravager, the traces of Destruction remaining in your body are likely difficult to purge. If I clean them out by force, even if I restore you, I'm afraid it will leave behind very strong sequelae."
"It doesn't matter to this little woman; as long as... I can see the real world with my own eyes again and touch those familiar things, this little woman will be very satisfied." Tingyun said in a low voice, her tone disappointed.
Obviously.
She had some concept of her own situation.
And she also knew that she wasn't easy to restore.
"Don't be so pessimistic. My meaning is, it is indeed not easy for you to recover as you were, to recover to the state before the Lord Ravager appeared, but..." Lin Qi paused and continued, "It is not difficult for you to incorporate this power for your own use, or even take a step further."
"Is that so?"
Tingyun said with pleasant surprise.
She had thought that after recovering, she would be a "useless person."
She didn't expect.
That she could actually tame this power.
It's just...
"The Antimatter Legion soldiers I've seen are all extremely fierce; after fusing with Destruction, won't this little woman turn into that too?"
Tingyun said with some worry.
"Rest assured, I have my own measures."
Lin Qi found it even funnier.
You can't even save yourself, and you still care about beauty or ugliness?
However, given Tingyun's personality, if she really turned into one of those soldiers, she would probably rather not be "resurrected."
Fortunately, Lin Qi had a plan.
He also didn't want to see a beautiful Foxian turn into a heartless war machine.
After thinking about it, Lin Qi spoke again.
"There are three plans available for you to choose from. First, I will try my best to maintain your original form, but in this way, your degree of fusion with Destruction might not be very deep. Because your body will constantly reject the existence of Destruction, in the end, you will neither be able to gain very strong power, nor will you live very comfortably."
"The second option is for me to perform some modifications and optimizations on your body to coexist with Destruction. But after the modification, you might have some extra organs to house the Destruction. Don't worry, I won't make you grow a few extra arms or a few extra heads; currently, I'm considering adding a few more tails."
Lin Qi said, looking at Tingyun.
He wanted to see her reaction.
Tingyun's mouth was open, and she was somewhat dazed.
Obviously.
The second option Lin Qi mentioned surprised her greatly.
Will there be extra organs?
Even if it's just tails, it would be very uncomfortable, right?
After all, when she only had one tail before, just grooming it took an entire system hour.
If a few more were added, and if she followed the previous method, she wouldn't have to do anything all day; just grooming the tails would take up the whole day.
"Benefactor, didn't you say there was a third option?" Tingyun looked at Lin Qi with anticipation.
"This third option is even more special; it is based on the second option, with further deepened modification." Lin Qi paused and said to Tingyun, "Didn't you say before that you sometimes wanted to turn into a fox? How about it, are you interested in becoming a nine-tailed fox?"
Hearing Lin Qi's words, Tingyun's expression became very colorful.
She couldn't imagine at all how a human body could turn into a fox.
Could it be like the Borisin?
