Qu Tong looked at Feng Baobao and shook her head: "Her memory may have completely disappeared. It may be difficult to recover it."

Wu Gensheng heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he did not give up. He believed that as long as he found the right method, Feng Baobao's memory would be restored.

Just then, a voice came from outside the door: "Maybe, I can try."

Wu Gensheng and Qu Tong turned around at the same time, only to see a young man walking in. His name was Li Tong, a person with special abilities that Wu Gensheng had recently discovered.

"You?" Qu Tong looked Li Tong up and down and said with some disdain, "What can you do?"

Li Tong smiled and said confidently: "I have the ability to touch the depths of a person's soul. I believe I can find Feng Baobao's lost memories."

Hearing this, Qu Tong frowned: "Touching the depths of the soul? How dare you say such a thing? Who do you think you are?"

Li Tong didn't care about Qu Tong's doubts. He looked at Wu Gensheng and said, "Wu Gensheng, believe me, I will definitely help you realize your wish."

Wu Gensheng looked at Li Tong with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. He knew that Li Tong's ability was indeed very special, but he was also worried whether this ability could really help Feng Baobao recover her memory.

However, thinking of Feng Baobao's helpless look, Wu Gensheng finally made up his mind. He nodded and said, "Okay, I believe you. Li Tong, just give it a try."

Seeing this, Qu Tong shook her head helplessly. She did not believe in Li Tong's ability, but she also understood that Wu Gensheng's feelings for Feng Baobao were so deep that they could not be measured by reason.

Li Tong began to use his ability. He closed his eyes and muttered something, as if communicating with some mysterious power. Wu Gensheng and Qu Tong looked at him nervously, expecting a miracle to happen.

As time went by, Li Tong's face became paler and paler. Finally, he suddenly opened his eyes and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Found it!" he said weakly, "Feng Baobao's memory is sealed in a deep space. I can try to unlock the seal..."

Wu Gensheng's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this. He held Li Tong's hand tightly and said, "Thank you, Li Tong. No matter what the result is, I will remember your kindness."

"Li Tong, you keep saying that you can do it, so why don't you tell me how you are going to do it specifically?" Qu Tong's voice was filled with disdain.

Li Tong smiled slightly and said, "Senior, my method is not something you can tell anyone casually."

"Oh? Then what do you want to do?" Qu Tong raised her eyebrows.

"It's very simple. If you are willing to share your final plan, I will tell you my methods." Li Tong said leisurely.

Hearing this, Qu Tong frowned, as if weighing the pros and cons. After a moment, she took a deep breath and decided, "Okay, I'll tell you. I plan to ascend."

As soon as the word "ascension" came out, the atmosphere around them suddenly became solemn. Li Tong and Zhang Chulan looked at each other, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

"Ascension? There hasn't been an ascender in this land for a long time." Wu Gensheng said lightly.

A trace of determination flashed in Qu Tong's eyes: "That's why I want to try. I will not give up the path that others have walked before me easily."

Li Tong nodded, with some guesses in his mind. He looked at Qu Tong and said slowly, "The predecessor you mentioned, could it be that you are referring to Master Zi Yang?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Qu Tong's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure: "You are indeed smart."

"Then, that middle-aged man is the physical body of True Man Zi Yang?" Li Tong continued to speculate.

Qu Tong did not deny it, but just nodded silently.

Li Tong was excited, his guess was confirmed. He looked at Qu Tong, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes: "Senior, your plan is too risky, if it fails..."

Qu Tong interrupted him: "I know the risks, but I am willing to give it a try. Li Tong, if you are afraid, you can leave now."

Li Tong shook his head: "I am not afraid of death, I am just worried about your safety. Since you have made up your mind, I will naturally do my best to help you."

In the following days, Li Tong and Qu Tong began to work closely together to study the method of ascension. Sometimes they argued endlessly, sometimes they smiled at each other, and their relationship became closer unconsciously.

The middle-aged man also became the focus of their attention. They tried to find more clues about Zi Yang Zhenren from him so as to better complete the Ascension Plan.

Qu Tong stood aside, frowning, obviously surprised by Li Tong's remarks. She asked coldly, "Why do you think so?"

Li Tong smiled slightly and explained, "The Daluo Cave Observation is to transcend the mundane world and gain insight into the secrets of heaven and earth. If Zi Yang Zhenren could truly achieve the unity of body and soul, his body should have been turned into nothingness, rather than being properly preserved like this now."

Qu Tong was silent for a moment, as if thinking about what Li Tong said. She suddenly spoke, with a hint of cunning in her voice: "Since you know this, how do you know that I am not using this body to practice my way?"

Li Tong laughed and shook his head, saying, "You kidnapped Wang Bing and the others just to use the power of the self-cultivation furnace to transfer their cultivation of the Eight Wonders to this flesh body and stimulate its original ability. But you know, even if you can create a powerful puppet, what can it do? How can the way to ascend to heaven be helped by external forces?"

Qu Tong's face changed, and he said angrily: "How dare you underestimate me like this! How can you understand my way?"

Li Tong didn't take it seriously and said calmly: "Your way may be profound and unfathomable. But in my opinion, it is just an unorthodox way. If you want to merge with this body or take over its body, I'm afraid it will be a waste of effort."

Qu Tong was so angry at Li Tong's words that her face turned blue. She gritted her teeth and said, "Since you said so, then give it a try! See if you can stop me!"

Li Tong smiled slightly, not caring at all. He turned around and looked at Feng Baobao who was unconscious, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes. He said softly: "Baby, don't worry, I will definitely make you regain consciousness after I solve these problems."

Hearing this, Qu Tong sneered, "Recover your sanity? Who do you think you are? Feng Baobao's condition is not something you can easily solve."

Li Tong turned back to look at Qu Tong, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He said calmly: "Although I, Li Tong, am not omnipotent, I know my limits in this matter. Just one word from me and the baby will recover immediately."

Qu Tong snorted disdainfully, obviously finding Li Tong's confidence ridiculous. She sneered, "Who can't say empty words? If you can really do it, then let me see."

Li Tong said no more. He walked to Feng Baobao and patted her shoulder gently. Feng Baobao's eyes suddenly opened, and a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, but then became clear. She looked at Li Tong and asked softly, "Brother Tong, what's wrong with me?"

After hearing this, Wu Gensheng frowned and asked doubtfully: "Li Tong, what you said is really too mysterious. How can I believe you?"

Li Tong sneered and said disdainfully: "Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I don't need your trust, I only need the power of my words."

His words revealed a kind of domineering aura that made everyone present feel oppressed. The situation instantly became tense, as if it was about to explode.

At this moment, Li Tong suddenly changed the subject and said in a gentle tone: "In fact, there is no need for us to fight. Our goals do not conflict. Why can't we turn enemies into friends and move forward together?"

Hearing this, Qu Tong sneered and said, "Li Tong, your attitude was not like this before. Why are you suddenly saying this now? Is there some conspiracy?"

Li Tong smiled faintly and said, "Conspiracy? I, Li Tong, act openly and honestly, why would I need a conspiracy? I just think that the fight between us is too boring, so why not put aside our prejudices and pursue a higher realm together."
Qu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh? Then tell me, what are you pursuing?"

Li Tong laughed and said, "What I pursue is nothing more than a peaceful life, wealth, a beautiful wife and concubines, and a romantic and handsome man. Aren't these what you pursue?"

His words stunned Qu Tong and Wu Gensheng. They originally thought that Li Tong would have higher aspirations, but they didn't expect his request to be so simple.

Qu Tong was silent for a while, and then said, "Li Tong, is this really all you're after?"

Li Tong nodded and said, "Of course. Life is short, why bother fighting for those illusory things? It's better to let go of everything and enjoy the beauty in front of you."

After hearing this, Qu Tong couldn't help but feel a little moved. She began to reflect on her own behavior and whether it was really necessary to be an enemy of Li Tong.

Seeing this, Wu Gensheng quickly said, "Li Tong is right. Why should we keep fighting over trivial matters? Why don't we put aside our prejudices and pursue a higher realm together?"

He stood on his own side, hoping that Li Tong and Qu Tong could reconcile and work together to help him achieve his goals.

Qu Tong looked at Wu Gensheng, then at Li Tong, and was hesitant. She didn't know whether she should believe Li Tong's words, nor did she know whether she should give up the fight with Li Tong.

Seeing this, Li Tong smiled and said, "Qu Tong, you don't have to rush to make a decision. We can try to cooperate once and see how it works."

Qu Tong thought about it, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll trust you this time. I hope you won't let me down."

Li Tong laughed and said, "Don't worry, I, Li Tong, never break my promises."

Just like that, a fight that could have broken out was miraculously resolved under the power of Li Tong's words.

Qu Tong looked at Li Tong, her eyes full of doubt: "Are you really willing to negotiate peace unconditionally?"

Li Tong smiled slightly, with a deep light in his eyes: "My love for peace is far beyond your imagination. As long as I am not disturbed, I don't want to get involved in any fights."

Qu Tong sneered: "Then why did you stop me before?"

Li Tong shook his head: "That's because you threatened my safety. I will resolutely eliminate any threat."

Qu Tong frowned. She understood what Li Tong meant, but she didn't intend to give up. "Your peace terms, don't you want me to become your slave?"

Li Tong glanced at her calmly: "You can understand it that way. But I want to tell you that this is the only chance I give you."

Qu Tong glared at Li Tong, she felt her dignity was trampled upon: "I would rather die than accept such conditions!" Li Tong sighed and took out a contract from his arms: "Since you insist so much, then sign this contract. As long as you no longer pose a threat to me, I can let you go."

Qu Tong took the contract and read it carefully. It was a money contract, requiring her to obey Li Tong's orders and not to have any bad thoughts about him or the people around him. She sneered and threw the contract back to Li Tong: "Do you think such a contract can bind me? I, Qu Tong, am not a puppet to be manipulated by others!"

Li Tong picked up the contract and gently dusted it off: "You are wrong. This contract is not a tool to bind you, but a chance I give you. You can refuse it, but you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

Qu Tong glared at Li Tong. She felt that her anger had reached its peak: "Li Tong, don't go too far! Although I, Qu Tong, am not your opponent, I am not a lamb to be slaughtered!"

Li Tong glanced at her calmly and said, "I know your strength. But in this world, strength is not everything. Sometimes, wisdom is more important than strength."

Qu Tong sneered: "Wisdom? Do you think you are smarter than me? Let me tell you, I, Qu Tong, am never afraid of any challenge!"

Li Tong shook his head: "You are wrong. It's not that you are not afraid of challenges, but that you cannot accept failure. But in this world, no one can win forever. One day, you will meet an opponent stronger than you."

Qu Tong was enraged by Li Tong's words. She stood up suddenly and was about to attack Li Tong. But at this moment, a strong aura emanated from Li Tong, suppressing her firmly in place.

Qu Tong looked at Li Tong in horror, she found that she couldn't move at all. Her heart was filled with fear and despair, she knew that she had been completely defeated by Li Tong.

"Ah!" The middle-aged man screamed, and an iron chain suddenly appeared on his arm, tightly wrapping around him, making him unable to move.

"What the hell is this?" The middle-aged man struggled, trying to break free by brute force, but the iron chain seemed to have taken root and did not move at all.

Li Tong sneered and did not answer. He had expected this to happen, so he made preparations in advance. This iron chain was a special magic weapon he made to deal with such a difficult opponent.

Meanwhile, Qu Tong's situation was not optimistic either. She was besieged by Li Tong's men, and although she fought back with all her might, she was soon subdued.

"Let me go!" Qu Tong struggled, but her voice sounded so weak.

When the middle-aged man saw this scene, a trace of anxiety flashed in his eyes. He knew that if Qu Tong fell into the hands of the enemy, they would be finished.

"Roar!" The middle-aged man let out an unpleasant roar, his body began to swell, and black digestive fluid spurted out of his mouth, shooting towards Li Tong and the iron chains.

Li Tong was well prepared. He covered the iron chain with a layer of glass, successfully resisting the corrosion of digestive fluid.

"Is this all you can do?" Li Tong said sarcastically.

There was a flash of shock in the middle-aged man's eyes. He didn't expect that his attack would be so easily resolved by the other party.

At this moment, Qu Tong suddenly gave up struggling and closed her eyes, as if she was making a decision.

"Not good!" Li Tong's heart tightened and he felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

Sure enough, the next second, Qu Tong's body suddenly began to tremble, and her soul left her body and flew towards the middle-aged man's body.

"She wants to take over someone else's body!" Li Tong exclaimed.

But it was too late, Qu Tong's soul successfully entered the middle-aged man's body. Her eyes became cold and murderous, as if she had become a different person.

"You are all going to die!" Qu Tong said coldly, her voice becoming hoarse and low.

After saying that, she raised her hand and waved it, and a red light came towards Li Tong. Seeing this, Li Tong quickly gave up the chain in his hand and stepped back.

"Bang!" The red light hit the place where Li Tong was originally standing, creating a big hole.

"Li Tong, how dare you force me to this point!" Qu Tong roared, his voice full of hatred.

Li Tong stood not far away, with a sneer on his face. He was not in a hurry to attack, but just quietly observed Qu Tong's attack.

Qu Tong's attacks became more and more fierce, but Li Tong seemed to see through her moves and could easily avoid them every time.

"Qu Tong, why are you so persistent?" Li Tong said calmly, "As long as you are willing to submit to me, I can spare your life."

When Qu Tong heard this, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and continued to attack Li Tong.

"Do you think I will surrender to you?" Qu Tong sneered, "I would rather die than become your puppet!"

Li Tong sneered and suddenly reached out to grab Qu Tong's neck. Qu Tong suddenly felt a strong force coming, making her unable to move.

"Do you really think I dare not kill you?" Li Tong's voice was cold and cruel. "Your body is just a shell to me. Without it, what do you have?"

Qu Tong's face turned pale, and she felt that her vitality was being sucked away by Li Tong bit by bit. She was filled with resentment and anger, but she also knew her situation.

She tried to struggle, but Li Tong's hands clamped her neck tightly like an iron clamp. She felt that her breathing was becoming more and more difficult, and her vision began to blur.

"I... I won't give in..." Qu Tong said with difficulty, but her voice had become extremely weak.

Li Tong sneered and twisted Qu Tong's neck. Qu Tong's eyes widened, as if she couldn't believe what she saw.

Li Tong let go of his hand and let Qu Tong's body fall to the ground. He stretched out his hand and a ball of fire emerged from his palm, instantly burning Qu Tong's body to ashes.

"Hmph, you want to revive by borrowing a corpse? That's not that easy!" Li Tong sneered.

Qu Tong, who lost her body, did not die. Her soul attached itself to a middle-aged man not far away. She controlled this body and launched a crazy attack on Li Tong.

Her hands transformed into countless phantoms, attacking Li Tong. But Li Tong seemed to be prepared, and he dodged Qu Tong's attack with a flash of his body.

"Shuangquanshou? Humph, nothing more than that!" Li Tong sneered.

Qu Tong's attacks became more and more fierce, but Li Tong seemed to be able to handle them with ease. He sometimes dodged, sometimes counterattacked, and each time he could make Qu Tong suffer a setback.

After a fierce battle, Qu Tong's crazy attack finally stopped. She gasped, her eyes full of anger and unwillingness.

Li Tong stood aside, looking at her coldly, with no expression on his face, as if nothing had happened.

"You so-called elites in the alien world are nothing more than this." Qu Tong sneered, her voice full of contempt.

Zhang Chulan and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. They all knew that Qu Tong's strength should not be underestimated, but at this moment they had no other choice. They could only helplessly endure her provocation and secretly think of a countermeasure in their hearts.

At this moment, Li Tong stood up. He did not take action directly, but took out a yellow talisman paper from his arms and muttered something. The talisman paper flashed with golden light, and a majestic figure appeared in front of everyone - it was the legendary Zi Yang Zhenren!
"Li Tong, what do you mean?" Qu Tong's face changed slightly. She didn't expect Li Tong to invite such a master.

Li Tong did not answer, but bowed deeply to Master Zi Yang and said, "Master, this person has used your body to commit many evil things. Please take action to deal with him."

Zi Yang Zhenren nodded, and his eyes were full of majesty and anger when he looked at Qu Tong. He raised his hand and waved it, and Qu Tong's body turned into a golden light and dissipated in the air.

Qu Tong's soul floated out of her body. She stared blankly at her body disappearing, her eyes full of confusion and helplessness. Before she could recover from the shock, Li Tong had already made another move, using the spell of soul-binding and general-sending to imprison her soul.

"You...how could you do this?" Qu Tong's soul struggled in confinement, her voice full of fear and unwillingness.

Li Tong looked at her coldly: "No matter how perfect your plan is, it cannot defeat the power of justice. Today is your end."

After that, Li Tong put Qu Tong's soul into a jar and prepared for subsequent processing. This battle ended with Li Tong's victory.

Zhang Chulan and others looked at Li Tong's back with respect in their hearts. They knew that they could defeat Qu Tong today only because of Li Tong's wisdom and strategy. And Qu Tong's failure also made her pay a heavy price.

After dealing with Qu Tong, Li Tong sighed deeply. He looked up at the sky, feeling mixed emotions. He had planned everything, but in the end, he ended up like this. It really fits the old saying - he ended up losing his life.

He shook his head, turned around and said to everyone, "Okay, let's go back." After that, he took the lead and walked back the way he came.

Wu Gensheng, Gong Qing and others saw this and did not say much, but just followed Li Tong silently. They knew that Li Tong was a man with his own ideas, and since he had decided to go back, it would be useless to say anything more.

Along the way, Zhang Chulan couldn't help but ask curiously: "Li Tong, how do you plan to deal with Qu Tong?" Hearing this, Li Tong smiled faintly and said: "I haven't thought about it yet. If it doesn't work, let Ma Xianhong deal with it himself." His words revealed a sense of ease and casualness, as if Qu Tong's life and death were not important to him.

Zhang Chulan was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect Li Tong to look down on Qu Tong so much, but at the same time he admired his decisiveness and courage. He knew that Li Tong was a man of means, and no matter what difficulties he encountered, he could find a way to deal with it.

Sitting in the back seat of the car, Li Tong began to imagine his future. He thought that he was now invincible in the alien world, with money, leisure and strength, so what else should he worry about? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile proudly.

The car quickly returned to Yiren's office. Liu Yanyan, who stayed in the office, saw Li Tong and others coming back and hurried to greet them. She asked curiously, "Li Tong, did you gain anything from this trip?" Li Tong smiled and said, "Of course I did." Then he told Liu Yanyan about his experience in detail.

When Liu Yanyan heard that the powerful body left by Zi Yang Zhenren had disappeared due to the appearance of its original owner, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful. She sighed and said, "It's such a pity. It would be great if such a powerful body could be used by us." Li Tong saw this and comforted her, "Don't be sad. I will help you find something better."

After hearing this, Liu Yanyan felt a warm current in her heart. She knew that Li Tong was a man of his word, and since he said he would help her find something better, he would definitely do it.

In this way, Li Tong spent a peaceful night in Yiren's office. He lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling, his heart full of expectations and longings for the future. He knew that he still had a long way to go, but as long as he kept going, he would definitely reach where he wanted to go. (End of this chapter)
