“Your father… is actually the same as you, a double innate talent individual. He awakened two domain concepts.” Number One’s expression was serious. “Little Four wasn’t aware at the time, so it caused a huge deal of problems when he tried to put these two concepts together inside of him.”

“Father is too strong.” Ling Lan felt grateful to Little Four for saving her father without any care in the world. But, she was also angry at her father for hurting Little Four

“Strength is one thing, but what hurted Little Four the most was the domain of your father’s terrifying innate talent.” After saying that, Number One’s expression turned steeled. Even if it was him, facing Ling Xiao’s Devour innate talent probably won’t be easy either.

“Terrifying?” Ling Lan was shocked.

“Your Profound Insight innate talent is the strongest innate talent in the world. However, there is a forbidden innate talent that can almost rival yours.”

“Forbidden… my father?” said Ling Lan in shock.

“Little Blossom is like that too.” Instructor Number One nodded.

“Devour!” Ling Lan took in a deep breath. When Instructor Number One mentioned Little Blossom, she knew what the forbidden innate talent was.

“Come.” Number One opened up a tear once again and led Ling Lan to the next location.

Ling Lan finally saw Little Blossom. He was unconscious just like Little Four, hovering in the air with countless bands of light pouring energy into Little Blossom. It seemed that Little Blossom’s condition was just as bad as Little Four’s.

“What’s wrong with Little Blossom?” Ling Lan’s expression was serious as she asked worriedly.

“The spiritual power core of Devour isn’t something that can be absorbed. That thing would devour all energy once it touches something and would not stop until there’s nothing left.” Instructor Number One remembered the moment of crisis from when it first happened and sighed inside his head. “If Little Blossom didn’t use all of his own devour energy to force your father’s Devour spiritual power core out of the learning s.p.a.ce, we and the learning s.p.a.ce might not exist anymore.”

“However, the result of that is Little Blossom’s energy being completely drained, causing him to fall into a coma. His injuries are more severe than Little Four’s.” Number One told Ling Lan Little Blossom’s condition in detail, then he led Ling Lan back into the room where Ling Xiao and Xie Yi’s cores were being kept.

“Look closely at Xie Yi core,” Instructor Number One asked Ling Lan.

Ling Lan activated her Profound Insight domain and saw a layer of dark energy swirling around that dim and seemingly extinguis.h.i.+ng light source. That small amount of dark energy was slowly sucking Xie Yi’s life force dry.

“That’s the Devour concept?” The concept energy gave Ling Lan a sense of familiarity. It was strange to her because it was something she had never experienced before, yet it was ever so familiar to her.

“Yes.” Instructor Number One’s hand slowly reached towards Xie Yi’s core. Then, he transferred his own energy to Xie Yi’s core, supplying it energy while not damaging the core.

Slowly, the light source in Xie Yi’s core became brighter. This seemingly simple action actually caused a thin layer of sweat to form on Instructor Number One’s forehead. It should be known that no matter what Instructor Number One did, he would do them all calmly and nonchalantly. He definitely wouldn’t become like this. It seemed like keeping Xie Yi alive was not an easy task.

Ling Lan didn’t dare to make a sound, in case it would bother Number One. Just like that, she stood there without moving a muscle for half an hour. Just when she saw Instructor Number One slowly take back his hands. Xie Yi’s core’s light source was now much brighter than before and was more lively. However, compared to Ling Xiao’s core, it was not even worth mentioning.

“One session of energy transfer used to be able to support him for one week. Now it can only support him for three days,” said Instructor Number One. “The Devour concept your father has left behind is much stronger than Little Blossom. Moreover, it has the ability to take in energy and evolve into something even stronger. One of these days, I won’t be able to keep it at bay. When that happens, Xie Yi cannot be saved anymore.”

“Even you are out of ideas?” Ling Lan asked anxiously.

“If forbidden concepts were that easy to handle, they wouldn’t be forbidden,” said Instructor Number One as he shook his head. “On Mandora, it’s considered something that cannot be resolved. Whoever touches it, dies. The Mandora Star System once had a Devour virus, the Doomsday Flower, appear in our star system. Back then, it almost destroyed the entire star system. Countless hackers, scientists and two intellect kings died before we managed to successfully lock up the Doomsday Flower. However, even until now, we can only lock it up. We didn’t have the power to completely destroy it. You see, Little Blossom is really strong, right? Well, in reality, he is only just code left over by the Doomsday Flower who evolved into what he is now. He can’t be compared to an actual Doomsday Flower back in the day.”

After saying all that, Instructor Number One turned around and asked Ling Lan, “And that was the Doomsday Flower of just the virtual world. However, your father’s Devour concept is an existence that can devour energy from both reality and the virtual world. Its power is stronger than the Doomsday Flower by a hundredfold.”

“So, only my father can deal with it?” Ling Lan didn’t want to lose any of her friends. If no one could deal with the Devour concept, her father’s own powers should be able to resolve the issue.

“It would have to be a Ling Xiao with the Devour concept.” Instructor Number One didn’t believe that Ling Lan’s idea was any good. Especially because after the Devour core was spat out by Little Four, they didn’t know where it had gone. Perhaps they might not even find it in this lifetime. If in the future, conditions allowed it, using the Duplication core to resurrect Ling Xiao still wouldn’t be a way of resolving this problem.

“Then, is there anyone else in this world that can deal with this problem?” Ling Lan clenched her fists forcefully. Why was she always so weak and could only watch as her loved ones die in front of eyes?

“Little Blossom could perhaps be able to deal with it,” Instructor Number One guessed. However, Little Blossom was still in a coma. No one knew whether it would work or not. “However, there’s a problem. We don’t know when Little Blossom will wake up and if Little Blossom waking up is related to whether Little Four can wake.”

Ling Lan raised her head and looked towards Instructor Number One with determination, “Tell me Instructor Number One, what do you need me to do?”

“Meditate like your life depends on it. Provide more energy to the learning s.p.a.ce. You know that the learning s.p.a.ce’s energy comes from your concept energy and strong spiritual power supply. We can’t be short of either of those two things,” Instructor Number One replied in a serious tone.

“I understand,” Ling Lan turned around, preparing to leave.

“Are you not going to stay by your father, Little Four and the others for a bit longer?” asked Instructor Number One nonchalantly.

“Staying by them now won’t do any good. I would rather go back and research how I can supply the learning s.p.a.ce with more energy,” said Ling Lan calmly. It wasn’t because she didn’t want to stay, but because she knew what was more important for her to do.
