Seven Deadly Sins System

Chapter 206 Elder Fang(2)

Fortunately, Elder Fang didn't keep Chu Wuyao waiting for long and soon continued his words:

"Actually, although creating clones is simple for most Supernatural Realm and even some Awakening Realm cultivators, doing so has many drawbacks."

"While creating clones, a cultivator has to split their soul, meaning that their soul will have to suffer some damage. Even though this injury can be healed through cultivation or by consuming resources, there will still be some side effects after the splitting of the soul."

"Generally, after a cultivator has suffered damage to their soul, their understanding will permanently decrease, and from then on, it will be harder for them to improve the strength of their soul."

Elder Fang explained patiently and when he noticed that Chu Wuyao was fully listening to him, he couldn't help but show a smug expression.

"Apart from this, there is also another major drawback when creating clones.", he added.

"The clone of a cultivator can not follow the same cultivation path as the main body. This means that if a cultivator has broken through the Awakening Realm using the Water Authority, then their clone can not break through using the Water Authority too."

"This is true even for the Authorities that a cultivator has understood after their breakthrough, and it's also true for their Vision. A clone can only use the Authorities and Visions that it itself has understood."

"So, even if there are cultivators who don't care about the damage to their soul and are willing to create a clone, they'll find that the combat power of their clone will always be lower than that of their main body."

"At that point, creating clones is simply a waste of time."

"Only cultivators like me, who have understood relative Authorities and awakened relative Visions are willing to make use of clones."

The explanation of Elder Fang was very simple and easy to understand, and by its end, Chu Wuyao had understood the issues that came with creating clones.

However, it was exactly because she understood that she became a little doubtful.

Although she had separated two clones, she had failed to notice any decrease in her understanding, nor did she remember suffering any injury during the splitting of their soul.

"Is this because of the influence of the system, or is it because my soul is special?", Chu Wuyao couldn't help but wonder, and secretly, she felt that it was most likely the latter.

All this time, she had been wondering why the system chose her instead of choosing somebody else.

She didn't believe that it was just because she was a transmigrator.

In her opinion, even though transmigrators, reincarnators, and time travelers were destined to be rare, when taking into account the vastness of the world, there should be many such people.

Chu Wuyao couldn't believe that she had just been lucky and guessed that there should be something unique about her.

Unfortunately, despite being able to guess this, the fact that her soul was special was only a mere suspicion and she couldn't confirm it with absolute certainty.

"At the end of the day, this is because I lack strength. If I was strong enough, all my doubts would have been answered long ago.", she thought and shook her head, deciding to no longer think about it.

Although countless thoughts went through Chu Wuyao's mind, in reality, less than a second had passed.

When she recovered, she was faced with the smug face of Elder Fang, who showed an expression of "come on, praise me".

Seeing this, a "shocked" expression appeared on Chu Wuyao's face and her eyes shone with "admiration".

"It deserves to be Elder Fang!", she praised and patted her thigh, as if she was struggling to contain her inner excitement.

A smile flashed in Elder Fang's eyes when he heard this and it was fairly obvious that his vanity was satisfied, making him very happy.

"About a month ago, the Divine World, another world which happened to pass by our own world, activated a large formation, opening a gate to our world and smuggling some practitioners in."

"In fact, although there were many invading practitioners, there were only four people who were equivalent to the Transcending Tribulation Realm, and the leaders of the major forces had an advantage."

As he spoke, Elder Fang's tone became solemn and he completely lost his previous casual appearance.

"Unfortunately, before anyone could breathe a sigh of relief, those damn monsters actually betrayed our world."

"While the leaders of the major forces were hunting down those so-called Gods, several Demon Kings took the opportunity to stab us in the back. In just a few days, hundreds of sects were destroyed, while millions of people were slaughtered, becoming their nourishment."

Chu Wuyao was originally shocked by the content of Elder Fang's words, but soon, her focus changed.

In her eyes, as Elder Fang spoke, his seemingly ordinary body changed, exuding a powerful and majestic aura.

At the same time, boundless murderous intent flashed in his aged eyes, as if he had turned into a Devil.

Sitting across from him, Chu Wuyao felt that she was surrounded by countless corpses, making her have the illusion that she had entered a bloody battlefield, a battlefield in which millions of people died.

This illusion didn't affect her, but instead allowed her to understand something.

Although Elder Fang seemed to be careless and was very amicable, not matching her original expectations of what a powerful cultivator should look like, his ordinary appearance was most likely a means to hide his true self.

Judging from the murderous intent he exuded, Chu Wuyao could feel that countless people had died at his hands.

"Sure enough, appearances can be deceiving. No powerful cultivator should be underestimated.", she thought, warning herself that she should not let down her guard while facing other cultivators in the future.

While Chu Wuyao was thinking, Elder Fang noticed his unconscious actions.

Immediately, he restrained his powerful aura and the murderous intent in his eyes disappeared, while a silly smile replaced his previous solemn expression.

In the blink of an eye, Elder Fang had turned back to his original appearance, looking like an ordinary kind elder.

"Cough, cough. You can ask the other disciples for more information later. You should choose the location of your Peak first.", he coughed and said.

"Make sure that you pick the right place. After you've made your decision, you'll be unable to change the Peak's location."

While speaking, Elder Fang waved his right hand, and instantly, an illusory three-dimensional map appeared in the air in front of him.

The map was of the Core Are and apart from the various landscapes and the buildings, there were also twenty-two red dots painted on it, seemingly at random.

"Each of these red dots represents the location of a true disciple's Peak. Apart from these areas, you can choose any other location."

Chu Wuyao looked at the illusory map and after she thought about it for a few seconds, she chose a relatively remote area.

"Just choose this one.", she pointed at a spot on the three-dimensional map.

Elder Fang nodded his head and with a move of his mind, another red dot appeared on the map, exactly where Chu Wuyao had just pointed.

Then, he waved his hand.

"Let's go.", he said, as a force landed on Chu Wuyao's body and pulled her away.
