He knew that his physical strength was at most twice as powerful as the guards he had hired. Compared to Chen Moxuan, he was certainly far inferior. This was also the reason why he immediately surrendered after realizing the situation.
In Heartless Valley, even if one suffered fatal injuries or had their head severed, as long as there was enough vitality or an Emotional Connection, they could survive. The only way to die here was to lose all vitality and Emotional Connection.
Fu Bo then conveyed this information to Chen Moxuan, which only deepened Chen Moxuan's astonishment. "Let me give it a try," he said. In an instant, he appeared beside Fu Yingying, who was listening in, and grabbed one of her arms, throwing her to the ground.
Fu Yingying let out a pained scream. She had never expected Chen Moxuan to suddenly attack her, and his swift action left her no time to react. "The way you looked at me made me uncomfortable; consider this a lesson for you. Now use your vitality or Emotional Connection to heal that arm of yours!"
Fu Yingying shot a fierce glare at Chen Moxuan. She knew she was no match for him and could only swallow her anger for now, planning her revenge later. Instead of immediately healing her injured arm, she turned her gaze to Fu Bo.
Fu Bo quickly handed her a Crystal Bottle filled with vitality. Fu Yingying caught it with her other hand and silently focused on using the vitality to heal her arm. Instantly, three strands of vitality disappeared from the Crystal Bottle, and her arm began to regenerate at an astonishing speed.
It grew back just like her original arm. If it weren't for the bloodstains on her shoulder, one would hardly notice that just moments ago, her arm had been severed!
A severed arm reborn! Chen Moxuan witnessed this miraculous scene firsthand. It seemed that both vitality and Emotional Connection were incredibly precious; even such severe injuries could be completely healed so quickly!
Chen Moxuan believed that with so many people living in the Heartless Valley, it was impossible for everyone to rely solely on their own life force and emotional connections to survive. Clearly, that would not be enough. Therefore, there must be other channels to acquire life force and emotional connections.
For instance, Fu Bo had brought him, a newcomer, to his courtyard with the intention of secretly siphoning off his life force and emotional connections. The methods to obtain life force and emotional connections were limited to a few options.
The first method was to exchange one's own lifespan and emotions for life force and emotional connections. The second was to cultivate the Qian Qing Wan Yu Jue inscribed on the stone tablet at the center of the valley. Practicing this technique could yield a large amount of emotional connections in a short time, but the consequence would be a significant loss of emotions for that duration. The third method involved doing tasks for others in exchange for life force or emotional connections. The fourth method was through trials to enter the Ruthless Mansion, which distributed a batch of life force or emotional connections each month based on one's position. The final method was to possess skills for making a living; for example, if one could cook well, they could open a restaurant to earn life force and emotional connections.
These were the methods Chen Moxuan knew of. He was particularly interested in the first and fourth methods. For the first method, he wondered if his strong life force meant he could convert it into bottled life force without sacrificing his lifespan. If that were possible, he wouldn't have to worry about life force and emotional connections at all, thus reducing the impact of the valley's rules on him.
His interest in entering the Ruthless Mansion stemmed from the fact that it was where the valley's master resided. There, he might uncover the secrets of Heartless Valley and perhaps even discover a way to restore his memories ahead of time.
Was it necessary to use a Crystal Bottle to convert one's lifespan and emotions into life force and emotional connections? Yes, it had to be done using such a Crystal Bottle. I have plenty; I can give you a few later. The process of converting life force and emotional connections is simple—just hold the Crystal Bottle and mentally recite the necessary incantation!
Fu Bo said this as he held a Crystal Bottle and began murmuring something under his breath. Soon, a strand of life force appeared within the bottle, while Fu Bo's own life energy diminished slightly. It seemed this too was a manifestation of some rule's power.
Witnessing this transformation firsthand, Chen Moxuan realized that Fu Bo's ability to convert emotional connections and life force must be due to the influence of the Rules Spirit.
"Let me try it myself later!"
"Yes, I can sense your life force weakening. If you absorb a bit of life energy now, can your aura return to what it was before?"
"It won't be exactly the same, but it can reach about ninety percent. There will be some loss involved."
"This damned Rules Spirit is just like Zhou Baopi!"
"Where does the loss go? It's obvious that the Rules Spirit has stolen it!"
"One last question: if I leave now, can I get out of Heartless Valley? Over the years, do you know if anyone has ever escaped from Heartless Valley?"
Regarding Chen Moxuan's question, Fu Bo was not surprised.
"Because every newcomer who learns about this place usually asks the same question."
"You absolutely cannot leave right now, because the rules set by the Rules Spirit state that once you enter Heartless Valley, you cannot leave within seven days. Only after seven days can you possibly leave, and it's extremely difficult."
"I've lived here for hundreds of years and only know of one person who managed to escape. That person's physical strength was also very formidable!"
"How did that person escape?"
"I don't know that. But the information is definitely true because many people died that time, and the Rules Spirit was furious, even striking down with lightning!"
"You must stay in this valley for at least seven days."
Chen Moxuan had a premonition that leaving this place sooner rather than later would be better. Moreover, those with strong physical bodies had an advantage here.
The person who had left this place gave Chen Moxuan a sense of familiarity upon hearing about it, yet he could not recall anything specific.
"For now, that's all the questions I have. If I think of more later, I'll ask you again. Please give me a few Crystal Bottles; I’ll go rest in my room."
"Sure, sure."
Fu Bo quickly brought over several Crystal Bottles and handed them to Chen Moxuan.
Chen Moxuan took the bottles and went to the room that Fu Bo had arranged for him. He did not immediately attempt to convert life energy and Emotional Connection; instead, he began to think. He needed to consolidate the information he had just learned from Fu Bo and extract what he truly wanted to know.
