Li Changzhou gently tapped on his sister's head and said, "Not as perfect as I imagined."
"Perfect? Do you not only want to be pregnant with all females, but also let——"
Li Qianxia's forehead got hit again, this time harder, making her whimper while holding her head.
Yang Qinglan pursed her lips, her smile contained, watching the two siblings horse around.
"The current Divine Body just gets bigger," Li Changzhou explained, "Think about it—"
"Lying in bed, a pair of hands behind your head, another pair holding a cell phone, one pair eating food. If you had two extra eyes, you could watch videos and study besides playing on your phone. It would be best to have two heads to improve efficiency."
"Life becomes convenient, the efficiency of studying and playing increases drastically, not to mention fighting, many mythological characters have three heads and six arms."
"Wouldn't three heads and six arms look ugly?" Li Qianxia touched her forehead and said.
"That's only because you grew up in a world with one head and two arms. If there were a race with three heads and six arms, they might discriminate against us."
"I'll accuse them of racial discrimination!"
Ignoring the playful Li Qianxia, Yang Qinglan pondered:
"Humans with one head and two arms need about 7 to 8 hours of sleep, consume 1500–2000 kcal a day. Suppose you became what you described, three thousand meters tall, with three heads and six arms, just by eating, even if it's Elixir Pills, you'd still not match the consumption."
"That's why they evolved a way to consume anything, even absorbing radiation to replenish energy," Li Changzhou looked down at a tuft of grass.
The vigorous green grass wilted at a visible speed, and strands of vital energy were absorbed by Li Changzhou.
"If I wanted, I could transform out a complete Divine Body, open my mouth and even absorb the vital energy from human bodies."
"Not everything can be absorbed though. If the radiation exceeds a certain strength, you'd still die," Li Qianxia loved to burst her brother's bubble.
"You'd die from drinking boiling hot water too," Li Changzhou replied irritably.
"Not me!" Li Qianxia confidently said.
With her current Constitution, she wouldn't, but a Divine Body capable of absorbing any form of energy would, just like humans drinking water; "too hot" can't be consumed.
Enemy attacks wouldn't work either; energy is indeed food, but that's an attack, like there's "poison" in the food—actively pulling it out from someone else's body is a different matter.
"What about the white Identity Card?" Yang Qinglan asked.
"It's similar to the Black Card," Li Changzhou said, "No major changes, I switched 'Stepping in the air' with 'Hell Road'."
Yang Qinglan nodded, "You can fly on your own now, 'Stepping in the air' is useless."
"Actually, after obtaining the Divine Body, I already learned 'Stepping in the air'," Li Changzhou smiled and said.
"Stop talking about that, let's see the Hell Road!" Li Qianxia urged.
"You want to go in and train yourself?" Li Changzhou suggested mischievously.
"No, absolutely—"
Li Qianxia hadn't finished speaking when the sky turned gloomy, the sunny "Honey Pot World" instantly became a place of chilly winds.
The black clouds rolled over the treetops, the eighteen levels of Hell appearing faintly visible, larger and more complete than seen in 1661.
Amidst the clattering of chains, iron locks descended from the sky, forming the Heavenly Ladder.
"Ladies, please." Li Changzhou smiled and made a welcoming gesture.
"You're not going to toss us into a boiling pot, are you?!" Li Qianxia was quite terrified, worried her brother was planning to "train" her.
"You don't need to strengthen your bodies, but if you want to learn Ice Magic, you can go to Ice Mountain Hell."
The three of them climbed up the ladder, while Carrot and Butterfly rode a leaping antelope that Li Qianxia had swiped, flying in from the woods by stepping in the air.
"So dangerous, so dangerous!" Carrot was like a person who can't handle spicy food but insists on eating it, feeling the danger yet still wanting to fly higher.
"Woo~" Butterfly was seemingly saying something too, appearing very excited.
Li Qianxia turned around, mounted the leaping antelope, standing tall and proud like an emperor consecrating Mount Tai.
Li Changzhou and Yang Qinglan walked side by side, casually discussing the diverse uses of the eighteen levels of Hell, as leisurely as enjoying a spring outing.
◇
July 25, 1848, the First Italian War of Independence, Custoza.
The sound of horses neighing, heavy artillery fire, before them lay a gory battlefield akin to a meat grinder.
Bullets and shells ruthlessly swallowed up the lives of every Austian and Piedmont soldier.
With every lift of a hoof, the blood-soaked soil clung to it.
The battle had reached its fiercest moment, and both sides began hand-to-hand combat.
Yafeiluna rode a white horse armed for battle, her red hair billowing, her long legs tightly squeezing the horse's sides, and from twenty shades of 'Gray Fog' that had survived numerous battles and ambushes, only four remained.
"Kill!"
The four shades of Gray Fog, wielding scythes, battled the trident-wielding Water Elves, a brutal fight where every strike drew blood, with the scythes of Gray Fog showing cracks.
Bang! The horses collided, sending up a painful neighing into the sky.
Yafeiluna, overwhelmed by the rich scent of blood and sweat, had never been dry of sweat and blood since her arrival in this era.
The one she collided with was a Sea Elf, its body a deep blue like the sea.
Their horses collided and they both leaped up simultaneously, Gray Fog swarming forward, the Water Elf wielding its trident, sweeping a waterfall of sea water.
Yafeiluna felt like she was in a washing machine, the world spinning around her.
"Maria! Maria!"
"Cough, cough, cough!" Yafeiluna landed, constantly coughing up water from her nose and throat.
Hurd protected the front, and within a few exchanges, he was pushed back by the Sea Elf, each move a narrow escape from death.
"Maria Yafelona!" The Sea Elf stood on a wave, trident in hand, like the Sea God, "I give you one last chance, submit to me!"
