Chapter 1338: Indestructible Diamond Physique
The rest of the group stared at the two. They had grown accustomed to Fairy’s speech. These two always talked about strange things that only the two of them could understand.
Li Qiye gently sighed after a long silence: “Heartache is good. It shows that your heart is still beating, that you are still alive. Something like this is unbelievable for you, so you should feel happy instead.”
She quietly asked: “Why is it that this pain lasts for so long?”
Li Qiye looked at her but didn’t know how to explain it right away. It wasn’t good to tell her before the time was ripe, so he softly said: “There is always pain and parting in this world. Countless calamities have fallen, and experiencing too much can torture the heart. When you understand why things come and go, you will be able to understand everything.”
“When I understand it all, will the pain go away?” She looked at him with her pretty eyes in a serious manner.
He found it difficult to answer since he didn’t wish to lie to her. In the end, he said: “You will find out when that day comes.”
Fairy gently nodded as her eyes became muddled again. Li Qiye walked forward and looked at the old rudder. He smiled and said to the daoist: “Go outside and remove your talisman.”
“For what?” The daoist was frightened after seeing this smile. He didn’t know what was going on.
“Fishing inevitably requires bait.” Li Qiye chuckled: “And you are a very fat and delicious bait.”
“Why me? Can I not be the bait?” The daoist replied with a pained expression.
“What are you afraid of?” Li Qiye looked at him with disdain: “You have the Indestructible Diamond Physique, so how are you going to die? Oh right, don’t fall down into the sea because you will drown even if your physique was stronger. Maybe you would be okay if it was at grand completion, but what you have right now won’t do.”
Ruyan smiled and chimed in: “Puresun Island Lord, you are the leader of the charming spirit race, a hero among men. If you don’t want to be the bait, do you want weak women like us to be the bait instead?”
“Schoolmaster Liu, there’s no need to praise me so much, I’ll just go be the bait then.” The daoist hastily surrendered with a wry smile.
He went to the deck and took a deep breath. His body exuded a glow with a buzz. It was glittering as if cast from gold and had a cold metallic sensation.
He no longer looked like a living person and more like a diamond sculpture. This was the Indestructible Diamond Physique, one of the twelve. It was completely impervious to weapons and all other existences. Some even said that at grand completion, the user would be unkillable regardless of the attack.
Of course, this was an exaggeration. However, it was prohibitively difficult to kill a user at grand completion; some would even argue that it was even harder than killing an Immortal Emperor.
The daoist’s physique was at half completion. In addition to his powerful cultivation, he would always be in an unlosable situation regardless of who his enemies were.
After activating his physique, he looked at Li Qiye and asked: “Can I begin?”
Li Qiye nodded and smiled: “Go for it, attract them and let them beat you up.”
The daoist sighed and took off his talisman. The skeletons on the ship immediately reacted. Red soulflames appeared in their eyes.
