My Ability Is Role-playing

Chapter 426 - 419: The Robed Youth: I Am Wudang!

In the torn firmament, streams of light like lunar radiance transformed into a torrential downpour, dousing the entire Wudang Mountain in the blink of an eye.

Everyone standing in this rain of light felt their bodies become much lighter.

Those with illnesses found their ailments begin to diminish.

The healthy ones felt their energy surging; clenching their fists, they could feel their strength incrementally increasing.

What once seemed a foggy and muddled mind became sharp and clear as it was bathed in this light rain, making many difficult problems seem simple.

The girls who paid more attention to their appearance noticed their skin becoming smoother, with pores more refined and delicate.

Those who possessed Inner Qi vaguely perceived that their Inner Qi cultivation started to gradually and permanently elevate!

In this process, the greatest beneficiaries were the Academic Society members of the Guardian Organization.

Everyone’s Inner Qi cultivation grew by at least forty percent.

The fortunate ones with the right techniques, able to absorb more of the light rain...

For instance, Su Qiangwei.

She had just reached the Seventh Rank of Inner Qi, and this moment elevated further, not only completely mastering the current realm’s characteristic of Microscopic Control but also reinforcing her foundation, paving the way to the Eighth Rank of Inner Qi.

If it weren’t for guarding Zixiao Palace and preventing the building from being shattered by the aftermath of the battle between Ma Ran and Zhao Guanlan, her gains would have been even greater.

At this very moment, Su Qiangwei was simultaneously protecting the buildings around her and releasing semi-transparent Inner Qi, performing microscopic control in the sky.

The outward Inner Qi was sometimes condensed into forms of swords and spears, sometimes into the appearance of a human guardian deity.

A closer look at the guardian deity revealed that, although the figure was not entirely complete, hints of Ma Ran’s essence could vaguely be seen.

Su Qiangwei was immensely satisfied.

Molding Ma Ran with bare hands!

Doesn’t this have more flair than crafting a system out of thin air?

Master Qiangwei, forever divine!

Above the firmament.

Ma Ran fully unleashed the Youwen Text Illusion.

All the sensations experienced by the crowd after bathing in the light rain, apart from the enhancement of Inner Qi, were merely illusions.

Once the light rain ceased, except for the growth of Inner Qi, all other positive feedback would gradually dissipate.

The permanent increase in Inner Qi was, in reality, merely the wondrous utility of the Fifteenth Rank of the Inner Qi Hall of "Burning Martial" combined with Youwen text.

Although Ma Ran couldn’t enhance the strength of people worldwide, augmenting the Inner Qi cultivation for a few thousand, even tens of thousands, was no problem at all.

After all, during the previous Sea Demon calamity, he absorbed all of Feng Yuji’s life force, establishing a robust capital, a perfect foundation, and vitality that didn’t resemble a human being. Enhancing a few thousand people casually wouldn’t shake his foundation and could be fully recovered after resting for a couple of days.

A point worthy of attention——only those who practiced "Burning Martial" could benefit from the scene.

As for those without Inner Qi...

Ma Ran could only apologize.

After all, within the entire territory of China, every major province had a permanent Super Bureau office, and any law-abiding citizen without a criminal record could obtain a free copy of the "Burning Martial" manual to begin cultivating Inner Qi.

As a versatile Extraordinary System, the ceiling of Inner Qi had been elevated by Ma Ran to the Vacuum Level, and cultivating it to a profound level can even enable one to traverse the cosmos with their physical body.

But "Burning Martial" at the low tier posed no difficulty; as long as one was willing to invest time and energy, Inner Qi could certainly be cultivated.

Extraordinary popularization in China had persisted for such a long time, with such generous conditions and environments, far surpassing innumerable times the previous life.

Under such circumstances, those still unable to cultivate Inner Qi had nothing to do with aptitude and talent; it could only be said that they were unfeasible or set impossibly high standards.

Regardless, such individuals do not deserve serendipity.

Ma Ran, returning from rebirth to protect the civilization of Earth and prevent past tragedies, did not mean he could alter every individual’s destiny.

Doing everything within one’s ability to the extreme and leaving the rest to Heaven’s Will——this was Ma Ran’s credo.

...

Li Xing diligently maneuvered the icy wind, wrapping the Perpetual Motion Camera in it, aiming the lens at Ma Ran and Zhao Guanlan, cautiously and with great care.

Reaching this point had already pushed him to his limit.

During this period, apart from the tasks assigned by the Guardian Organization, Li Xing spent all his free time training his superpower and cultivating Inner Qi.

Compared to when he had just awakened his superpower, he had grown stronger by a whole order of magnitude.

Even so, Li Xing was acutely aware of the gap between himself and the truly powerful.

Weak.

Too weak!

He must exert ten, even a hundred times more effort to possibly follow Ma Ran, not being left too far behind.

Only then would he qualify to glimpse the silhouettes of the first echelon!

As Li Xing steeled his resolve, the rain of light fell on his face.

"What is this?"

He opened his hand, attempting to catch a couple of drops of the light rain to study them carefully.

But every drop of light rain, when it landed in the palm, was instantly absorbed by the skin and disappeared without a trace.

Li Xing, who clearly felt his Inner Qi rapidly increasing, was not overly excited.

He didn’t believe in pies falling from the sky.

As a seasoned Non-chief, Li Xing originally thought this was just an illusion.

However, when he opened the System and saw his cultivation progress bar increasing by one percent at a time, he no longer held any doubts.

The icy wind swept through the light rain, merging into his body!

With every drop of light rain that entered his body, Li Xing’s cultivation would increase significantly.

The feeling of rapidly increasing strength and realm was truly wonderful!

It was intoxicating, mesmerizing!

Li Xing was a quite responsible person.

Even at such a moment, he still spared some energy to aim the camera at Zhao Guanlan and Ma Ran, trying to capture their movements as much as possible.

He did not forget his mission.

In the Earth Super Forum, within the livestream room.

"Li Xing, I underestimated you! Even at a time like this, you’re considering the feelings of us viewers, I’m giving you a five-star review!"

"Yes... Every other livestream has already been cut off!"

"What exactly is this light rain?"

"@[Extreme Cold], can you explain?"

Li Xing, taking a moment amidst his busyness, glanced at his phone, wanting to explain, but found that the Perpetual Motion Camera was too far away, and even if he said something, the viewers wouldn’t be able to hear it.

The next moment, someone in the livestream room already provided an answer.

"This light rain is Spiritual Qi! After bathing in it, you can become stronger, more handsome, and smarter! It’s a panacea! A universal remedy!"

"Listening to your description, it doesn’t sound like the legendary Spiritual Qi, more like the Emperor’s Liquid."

"The liquid excreted by the Emperor? What is this? Why does it sound so obscene? Friends from China, are you driving?"

"Emperor’s Liquid, a medicinal stone name, is said to be a magnet that does not attract iron, and Taoists say that the essence of moonlight contains Emperor’s Liquid."

"I see, something that does not exist in reality, right?"

"Even if it’s an extraordinary fantasy encounter, it doesn’t make sense! The sun has just risen, and I think, we can’t see any moon..."

"Heavenly Dao Awakening, Spiritual Qi Revival!"

"I’m now at Wudang Mountain, and after absorbing some light rain earlier, I felt a flash of inspiration in my mind, feeling like I’ve grasped some opportunity to become stronger, possibly breaking through to the Second Rank of Inner Qi at any moment, but Zhao Guanlan gave me a look! My inspiration... extinguished! Moreover, my Inner Qi realm has regressed, not a trace of Inner Qi is left! And it feels like I can no longer cultivate Inner Qi! Damn it! Zhao Guanlan, this enemy of humanity! Japan once used the Ten Fists Sword but didn’t blow him up, what a pity!"

"???"

"This Zhao Guanlan, powerful indeed! Such a bastard indeed!"

"You’ve misunderstood the Profound Immortal. Although he’s not any good, the guy who just spoke, once slandered Zhao Guanlan and the Prophet online, saying they were just show-offs, pretending, and that instead of wasting time, they should be supporting the United States or South Korea, helping those international friends through difficult times—don’t scold me, the above words are just a summary, not spoken by me."

"What the hell? What’s this? Sympathized with him for nothing! This bastard with a Holy Mother complex, doesn’t go support foreign countries himself, but lets others do it? Huh? Truly infuriating!"

"Bah! What a joke! We’re already struggling ourselves, and you expect us to save others? Doesn’t Ma Ran need to cultivate?"

"Exactly... criticizing Zhao Guanlan, that’s fine, we can still be good friends. But you criticize the Prophet? Sorry, we’re enemies now!"

"Crap! The Profound Immortal now has only one head left!"

"How terrifying! Luckily I didn’t go to the scene, otherwise I’d probably be having nightmares about him!"

Above the torn sky, the Divine Dragon under Zhao Guanlan shattered, his body dissipated, his limbs and torso were dense black mist!

However, his expression remained calm, as if he had just shed a layer of clothing, showing no change in his demeanor or heart rate.

Finally, the light rain scattered.

Black mist swirled around Zhao Guanlan, reforming into the appearance of a pink suit.

He and Ma Ran exchanged a glance and both landed on the Golden Summit.

The next moment, on the mountain peak, smoke and clouds gathered.

In an instant, this lingering white smoke transformed into the appearance of a youth dressed in a Taiji robe.

This youth had black hair and eyes, a delicate appearance, lively eyes, brows as sharp as a blade, a nose like a hanging gall, lips like painted cinnabar, stepping on Cyan Cloud Shoes, paired with the Taiji robe, his aura was outstanding, like an immortal descending to the mortal world.

Li Xing instinctively took two steps back, raised the Perpetual Motion Camera, and aimed it at the youth in the robe.

No matter who this person was, just judging by his charm, there would be no problem debuting as a star.

Zhao Guanlan and Ma Ran’s gaze fell on the youth in the robe, without speaking, seeming to already know the identity and background of this mysterious youth.

But Li Xing and the audience didn’t know!

So, Li Xing, gathering his courage, looked at the youth in the robe and asked, "Dare I ask your esteemed name?"

The youth in the robe originally smiled towards Ma Ran and Zhao Guanlan, upon hearing this, slowly turned his head, cast a sidelong glance at Li Xing, and laughed heartily, yet there was a faint metallic clang in his voice.

"Wudang!"
