As the thought crossed her mind, Luo Huan stood up immediately.
All eyes turned to her at once.
“Luo Huan, what’s wrong?”
Lu Linglong also had no idea what kind of ruckus Luo Huan was trying to stir up again.
After all, this was the Lu Family. If something ended up embarrassing Lu Jin, it would be slapping the Lu Family in the face!
And Wang Bing instinctively let his qi burst forth.
He thought Luo Huan was about to start a fight after finishing her food!
But he soon realized he looked like a fool.
After standing up, Luo Huan swept her gaze over everyone present.
Hmm, around a hundred people—very good.
She then turned her head to look at Lu Jin’s table.
She locked eyes with Lu Jin and the old Heavenly Master.
“What’s the matter, Luo Huan?”
Lu Jin, who had just made a decision, looked confused, not knowing why Luo Huan suddenly stood up and looked his way after finishing her meal.
Then he saw Luo Huan nod at him.
“Master Lu, I’m ready!”
Luo Huan spoke abruptly again, without any context.
Ready for what?
Lu Jin was still baffled.
He tried hard to recall if Luo Huan had mentioned preparing something.
But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t remember a thing.
Besides the Reverse Life Triple and eating and drinking, Luo Huan hadn’t brought up anything else, had she?
Could it be there was some grand dish he didn’t know about that hadn’t been served yet?
Surely it wasn’t about the Reverse Life Triple again?
She was already at the second layer—was she really going to attempt the third layer right now?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
She had been studying for less than a week. How could she possibly be aiming for the third layer already?
Lu Jin couldn’t believe his own guess.
It was simply too far-fetched.
“Linglong, can you help clear a space in the middle here?”
Luo Huan turned and asked Lu Linglong for a favor.
“You’re planning to...?”
Lu Lin stood up at once.
Normally calm, he was now visibly shocked.
The others, seeing this cryptic exchange, were drawn in too.
Lu Linglong and the rest didn’t even need to act.
Everyone got moving, and in no time, they had pushed the chairs aside, clearing out a large open space in the middle.
“What’s she about to do?”
“No idea, but it’s going to be a show for sure!”
“Is Luo Huan about to perform something for us?”
“Didn’t think there were more performances to come!”
...
Young and old alike widened their eyes and stared at Luo Huan, all eager to watch the drama unfold.
After all, the biggest names in the entire world of the different ones were seated right here—even the biggest commotion could be handled!
When you had a safety net, the bigger the spectacle, the better!
Luo Huan nodded to Lu Lin, then walked straight into the cleared space.
She sat down cross-legged, five hearts facing heaven.
Regardless of how the others looked at her, she focused all her attention inward.
Internal Viewing Technique, activate!
The qi in her body also began to surge violently.
Only then did Lu Jin realize what Luo Huan was trying to do!
He sprang up from his seat, all color draining from his face.
Reverse Life Triple! Begin!
Zhang Zhiwei also understood and golden light erupted from his body, expanding outward.
He enveloped the area where Luo Huan sat in a barrier of golden light.
“A promising youth, indeed.”
Zhang Zhiwei looked at Luo Huan and couldn’t help but speak.
“She’s being far too reckless.”
Lu Jin looked at Luo Huan, who had already closed her eyes to meditate, and felt deeply troubled.
Damn it, she really was about to break through to the third layer!
Right now, he wished he could rush over, crack open Luo Huan’s head, and see what on earth was going on inside!
Was this really something a proper cultivator would attempt to do?
Had the recent days of cultivation burned her brain away?
How could she do something so reckless!
Yet, for some reason, he couldn’t suppress the anticipation rising within him.
What if? What if she succeeded?
The others were first shaken by the terrifying qi radiating from Lu Jin, and then stunned again by the powerful Golden Light Spell from the old Heavenly Master.
Just looking at it, the strength was overwhelming!
But this grand display was actually just to protect Luo Huan—could there be something even more momentous coming?
“Reverse Life Triple... If I remember right, the first level grants Dragon-Tiger Power, the second lets one regrow severed limbs, and the third is said to allow communication with heaven and ascension to immortality. Could it be...?”
Wang Ai spoke faintly.
It sounded like he was explaining to Wang Bing, but his gaze also flicked toward Gao Lian, the head of the Northeast region, and Xu San, the head of the East China region, both of whom were already standing.
He had openly pointed out the unknown, waiting to see how these corporate representatives would react.
“Immortal? That’s impossible.”
Xu San looked at the cross-legged Luo Huan on the ground, full of disbelief.
In his mind flashed the woman his father cared about most—Feng Baobao.
“Ascend to immortality? Is the Reverse Life Triple really that powerful?”
Lu Lin and Lu Linglong looked at each other in shock after hearing that.
Indeed, they had never heard any legends about the Reverse Life Triple. Lu Jin had only taught Lu Lin the cultivation technique itself.
“Become an immortal? Is that even possible?”
Zhuge Qing squinted as he looked at Luo Huan sitting firmly, also intrigued.
He hadn’t expected that coming out with his father to see the world would bring him such an interesting event.
Ascend to immortality? It was said that his ancestor Mr. Wolong of the Zhuge Family had reached that realm, only never taking that final step.
But Zhuge Qing had always treated that like fiction. After all, how could there be immortals in this world?
And yet here it was—a technique directly pointing toward immortality!
Could it really be?
The others were also full of doubt.
Although legends of immortality had always existed, they were all from who-knows-how-many years ago.
Most seemed obviously unreliable.
And now, right before their eyes, they couldn’t completely deny it—but could only remain skeptical.
But Luo Huan didn’t care.
She began channeling the Reverse Life Triple within her body.
Her soul gradually began using qi to take control of her physical body.
Very quickly, her entire outer appearance began to lose its color.
Reverse Life First Layer: qi transforms flesh and skin, granting superhuman Dragon-Tiger Power.
Then her internal organs began to transform.
Reverse Life Second Layer: qi transforms the five viscera and six bowels, gaining control over the Five Qi and maximizing physical capabilities.
And finally!
Her Three Dantians—housing essence, qi, and spirit—began to transform.
Reverse Life Third Layer: qi transforms the Three Dantians, fully mastering essence, qi, and spirit! Achieving total control over the body, and fully reversing the pre-heavenly form!
Then—complete collapse!
In the next moment, under everyone’s gaze, Luo Huan—bathed in white qi—suddenly burst like an overripe watermelon.
With a loud pop, she exploded.
Turning into countless streaks of white qi that clashed within the golden light before vanishing into nothing.
“And then? Why is she gone?”
The same question appeared in everyone’s minds.
And in the very next instant, Luo Huan reappeared midair.
But it wasn’t the white-haired, floating, celestial figure Lu Jin had imagined.
It was just a normal pink-haired girl with no trace of white qi, appearing in the air.
As she was about to fall, a flash of white light appeared—Lu Jin caught her firmly.
But in the next moment, Lu Jin’s already pale face turned ghostly white and blank.
Because—
There wasn’t a single trace of qi in Luo Huan’s body.
She was dead.
