Bai Fei thought wrong. Yun Ming had indeed quit the game, but the moment he woke up, he was seamlessly dragged into the soul realm by his predecessor Yun Ming. At this moment, Yun Ming looked as if he was asleep to outsiders.
Returning to his old place, Yun Ming still found it difficult to adapt to this pure white world. In the soul realm, his predecessor Yun Ming sat opposite him, as solemnly as when the two met for the first time.
"Long time no see, Yun Ming." His predecessor Yun Ming smiled.
"...It hasn't been long." Yun Ming responded calmly.
"It has been a few days since you last entered the soul realm." My predecessor Yun Ming recalled: "And my consciousness can only be confined in this boring and pale world. Without a clock, the concept of time is blurred. Of course."
"Oh, you're talking about the time we were chased by Apache helicopter gunships in Bangkok." Yun Ming could not have no memory of such a rare experience: "I have been trying to call you since that day, but I have never succeeded."
"Nonsense, in order to solve the mess you made, you took the stalker's soul away and used it before I could even warm it up. Even my own soul was damaged because of this, and it lasted for several days. You can’t even respond.”
The short three or two sentences of his predecessor Yun Ming revealed a considerable amount of information. Yun Ming made an inference based on actual experience: "It turns out that the scientific name of the translucent villain I crushed before is Soul Body. Now it seems that when you asked me to hold the forehead of the stalker's body after killing him, was this a necessary ritual to collect the latter's soul?"
"That's not necessarily the case. What that action collects are soul fragments, and I polish them into a more complete soul body. Under normal circumstances, when a person dies, his soul also disintegrates like a lamp. But the return of my supernatural soul can put an end to this. In the process, even if it is impossible to preserve the soul in its entirety, some fragments will still be fine." His predecessor Yun Ming said proudly.
Yun Ming scratched his hair. The words of his predecessor Yun Ming greatly stimulated his thoughts: "I understand. I realized that the concept of soul really exists in this parallel universe after traveling. The last time I used stealth The user's ability to escape from danger, as well as the high-speed self-healing ability I acquired not long ago, all prove that superpowers are bound to the soul of the user."
"Yes, I think you have probably discovered that whether it is air flash or unparalleled, the effects of these two abilities you exert are not as good as their original owners, and their power is greatly reduced." My predecessor Yun Ming felt very regretful: " It is true that on the one hand, the reason is that you are not level enough and your proficiency in using supernatural powers is not as good as that of Stalker and Jiang Yao; on the other hand, it is also because there are only a few soul fragments that have been absorbed, and the two souls you have captured are not. whole."
"I haven't seen Jiang Yao's soul, but I have an impression of the Stalker." Yun Ming recalled more details: "His soul is only the size of a palm, translucent, very turbid, and his facial features are quite rough. The stalker's face can only be barely made out."
The predecessor Yun Ming nodded: "Jiang Yao's soul body is very different from what you described. This is how I understand it. The two soul bodies purchased so far are semi-finished products that have only undergone simple processing, but this level is already I've reached my limit. Firstly, I lack the raw material of soul fragments, and secondly, I don't have much experience in studying them. I have to test the method of removing soul impurities step by step."
"You have been in the Soul Realm for six years, but why does it sound like your research on your own abilities has just begun?" Yun Ming was puzzled.
"You don't calculate my time like this." My predecessor, Yun Ming, clapped his fingers and said, "It was indeed six years ago that I accidentally forcibly summoned you to my body when I awakened and returned to my soul, but in the following two years, my The state of the soul was very bad, basically struggling on the verge of collapse, and it did not gradually stabilize until three years after the soul-piercing incident."
"I was almost unconscious at that stage, but after crossing the line of death, my soul body repair speed was much faster than before, and various functions were also restored. More than half a year later, my consciousness restarted ; After another two months, I began to receive your five senses simultaneously; it was only in the fifth year that I tried to communicate with you."
"So strictly speaking, I have only spent less than a year studying the Return of the Soul, and it is human nature that I do not understand it deeply."
Yun Ming is digesting this information, and he knows part of it. For example, his predecessor Yun Ming can sense the situation in the outside world. This can be easily inferred from his words even if his predecessor Yun Ming does not point it out; Yun Ming does not What comes to mind is that the first communication between his predecessor Yun Ming and him did not seem to have happened on the night of the defense battle of the ninth branch as he thought.
"In the fifth year, that is, since last year, my predecessor Yun Ming tried to communicate with me intracranially? I have no impression of this. Did all previous attempts fail... No! There is another possibility! Is it possible? Say..." Yun Ming suddenly raised his head, and he retrieved the disguised truth from several memories in his mind: "Did you send out those crisis signals?"
"I finally guessed it. I thought I was going to continue to remind you."
In Chapter 9 of this work, Yun Ming once mistakenly believed that his superpower was "immune to the ability attacks of the ability user and reacted to a certain extent." The basis for his conclusion was mostly based on his interactions with Jiang Yao and Pu The car attendant dealt with him, but the words of his predecessor Yun Ming told Yun Ming: He was the leader of those extreme stress reactions.
"On the night when I pledged the goods, you were the one who instantly replaced my consciousness and controlled my body to avoid Jiang Yao's attack. Later, you realized that Pu Cheshi was not telling the truth and pointed me to find the flaws in his words and deeds."
"No wonder you didn't warn us of the dangers we encountered several times after we were attacked on the Bangkok Bridge until now. The first is that, as you said, your soul origin is damaged and you are unable to contact me; the second is that you are not Omniscient and omnipotent, even if you gain control of your body in those critical moments, you won't be able to do anything."
When my predecessor Yun Ming heard this, he felt a little worried on his face: "You did a great job in self-rescue, Xumizuo! To be honest, when I was seriously injured by the individual mecha, I thought it was over this time. I didn't expect you to be able to save yourself." So decisively kill Jiang Yao and seize her Wushuang to heal her wounds."
"Huh, a dead horse is just a live doctor. No matter how I called you at that time, you didn't respond. I could only rely on the experience of killing the stalker. You told me last time that you should touch someone after killing him. I'll just repeat the same trick on the deceased's forehead." Yun Ming told the story of his evil deeds calmly: "Speaking of which, why did your soul origin get injured? Every time we communicate, we must come to the soul realm. Can’t you use your heart sounds?”
"That kind of thing is really not possible for the time being." My predecessor Yun Ming was also troubled by this: "I just mentioned the reason why my soul was seriously injured for the first time, and the second time happened when I lent you the soul of a stalker. At the same time, what happened in the second half of this morning was the third time."
"What's the meaning?"
"In order to obtain air dodge, you crushed the soul of the stalker. You obtained the superpower by doing so, but the foreign soul fragments also invaded us, and my soul was mixed because of this. If my soul was originally intact, Then this small dose of alien soul fragments is nothing, but..."
"I understand, similar to how young people, old people, and children have completely different resistance to the same virus."
"Absolutely." The predecessor Yun Ming said with a bitter face: "In order to remove the alien soul fragments from my soul, I spent a lot of effort on this, and my original savings were greatly damaged again, and it will take me who knows how long to slowly recover them. As a result, the stalker Before the matter was dealt with, Jiang Yao’s matter came again..."
Yun Ming rubbed his chin and looked his predecessor Yun Ming up and down. He did not see any major difference in appearance between the latter and the last time they met: "Forgive me for asking, if the alien species that invaded the soul body What are the consequences of having too many soul fragments?”
"Have you ever had any contact with multiple personalities?"
"Uh...no."
"Then imagine what it would be like if the original master personality is weakened and is challenged by the secondary personality. The two personalities compete for one body. Just replace the body with the soul."
"That kind of thing is just too bad."
"Right. So I will need a lot of time and energy to deal with these soul fragments, and I have no time to deal with you."
"...I understand, but can you give me an accurate idea of when you will regain the ability to communicate with my heart? It's okay for us to chat now because the place we are in is safe. If I come to the soul realm during a battle, wouldn't it mean Are you going to fall into a coma with your body and let others slaughter you?"
"Just wait, it will probably take a while. The reality is that if I force you to enter the soul realm now, it will consume a lot of energy, and we won't be able to chat for a few minutes."
"That's it?"
"Go back, I will call you when the time is right." His predecessor Yun Ming couldn't help but give the eviction order. He raised his hand and used his strength to push Yun Ming's chest hard. The latter was caught off guard and was knocked down by him. The scene in front of him Suddenly changed, from white to black.
Yun Ming, who fell to the ground, opened his eyes. This action drove away the darkness in his eyes, and what he saw was an oversized crystal lamp hanging from the ceiling.
"came back."
