Chapter: 6553

They also enjoyed the feeling of being able to chat freely without any secrets or worries. They were like two people who could share all their secrets with each other, and the interior of the moving vehicle was one of the most private environments they had ever experienced.

From discussing the Breaker's Assembly to talking about Meng Changsheng, from Meng Changsheng to Lin Wan'er's father, Lin Zhubi, they chatted and laughed. Suddenly, Lin Wan'er thought of something and asked Ye Chen, "Oh, Prince, has Father left any other uses for that ring besides bringing you near me and sending you back to me before I die?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Besides the two uses of bringing me near you and sending me back to you before I die, I haven't discovered any other uses for it."

As they spoke, Ye Chen added, "Oh, by the way, it's probably because we've met more frequently lately that now I'm getting close to you, and it's already lost its response."

Lin Wan'er looked at him seriously and said, "Prince, I always feel that this ring shouldn't just have these two uses."

"Really?" Ye Chen asked. "I think the transmission skills of this ring are really magical. Until now, I haven't figured out how it actually achieved teleportation. It's hard to understand whether it's dispersing people at the atomic level and reassembling them or establishing a wormhole that can instantly pass through two points like in sci-fi movies. Such a powerful ring, and yet you think it has more functions? That doesn't seem very realistic."

Lin Wan'er said, "Prince, I feel that Master Changsheng although he never treated Lin Zhubi and Wu Feiyan as his true disciples, when he passed away, he indeed left this ring to Lin Zhubi. It was certainly with the hope that after Lin Zhubi leaves the ten-thousand mountains, he could chase out the Xiongnu and restore the Han dynasty's great achievements. After all, he is also a Han person, and there must be some national sense in his heart. Since he had such an intention, then I think it's possible that this ring has other uses, although Lin Zhubi didn't have time to explore them and I myself am unable to research."

Lin Wan'er's words gave Ye Chen some inspiration.

He thought for a moment and muttered to himself, "Meng Changsheng may have sought immortality his whole life, but he must still have had some lingering human emotions."

"He would ask about the results right after achieving them and return specifically to fulfill his promise to Jiang Jia's old ancestor. Unfortunately, Jiang Jia's old ancestor was too weak and lacked deep connections, so he couldn't wait for him;"

"After that, he closed himself off in the ten-thousand mountains and didn't even ask about worldly matters or touch dust. When he witnessed Lin Wan'er and Wu Feiyan being pursued by the Qing army, he, as a Han person, also extended his helping hand to them;"

"He gave Lin Wan'er that ring, hoping he could support the Han dynasty; it's not like he just said it casually. Who knows if in his eyes, at that time, there was still a possibility to support the Han dynasty. Otherwise, how could he transmit and kill during that era with the Qing court's million-strong army?"

He asked Lin Wan'er, "Miss Lin, do you think this ring has any hidden abilities?"

Lin Wan'er said, "I dare not say it out loud, but I think the elixir recipe of a hundred turns and a thousand returns is somehow related to that ring. Wu Feiyan wants to get its maximum power and unlock her next five-hundred-year plan."

Lei Chen nodded thoughtfully, "Perhaps it's also a treasure that can be used to attack with arrays. However, my abilities are limited, and I haven't been able to discover this aspect of the ring yet."

As he spoke, Lei Chen held the ring in his hand, examining it carefully, wondering, "When Meng Changsheng gave the ring to Lin Wan'er, the Qing army had already occupied the Central Plains. If he really thought that thing could help Lin Wan'er support the Han dynasty, then it would have to possess the ability to block a million-strong army..."

Lei Chen suddenly felt a sense of longing.

If this speculation is true, then this ring should be a divine artifact.

Of course, its transmission ability is indeed very strong. However, this looks more like a passive defensive skill that can only be used to prolong one's life. If he relied on such a skill to overthrow the Qing court in that era, it would likely cost at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of lives.

Furthermore, the ring's function is not something that can be used repeatedly. Each time it's used, it requires a large amount of spiritual energy to be injected into it. If he didn't have a large supply of elixir to back him up, he would probably still be half-dead and recovering from his injuries now.

So if the ring only has this level of endurance, then Meng Changsheng handed it over to Lin Juefu, letting him go out on his own to support the Han dynasty, which is like having the Nine-Headed Worm say to Monkey King in Journey to the West: "You go and wipe out Tang Monk and his disciples!"

At this point, Lin Wan'er asked Ye Chen, "Did you test how much spiritual energy it could hold before injecting it all the time?"

Ye Chen shook his head and self-deprecatingly said, "Who dares to keep testing it... each time, it can drain almost all my spiritual energy in a very short period. I use elixir to replenish it, but it will immediately suck up another batch, with no signs of stopping, as if there's no limit to its needs, like an abyss. My supply of elixir is limited, so I haven't dared to test it further."

Lin Wan'er nodded slightly in understanding: "Spiritual energy is invaluable, and if it's really this relentless trial, it would be quite heart-wrenching."

She then said, "But, you must know that the ring has already saved your life once. If you hadn't injected spiritual energy into it back then, it might not have been able to play a decisive role at a critical moment. So, I think you should continue to invest in the ring's power and will definitely get its reward; since it has saved you once, it won't betray you in the future." JrNovels.com
