1070 Possession (1/2)
”This set of seven ancient bronze lamps is called the 'Seven Star Destiny Lamps'. It can maintain the vitality of the body even if the soul has left it. It's also a set of treasures!”
Fang Yuan sized up the surrounding ancient lamps and flipped through Immortal Annihilating Soul's ancient books. ”This Immortal is really a great person!”
Possession was a very troublesome affair.
The most feared problems were the host's own soul being too strong and the physical resistance of the body.
Immortal Annihilating Soul had already reduced these issues by a fair bit. He had thought about the remaining problems and even prepared the necessary elixir and auxiliary materials.
This was equivalent to an old woman working hard to prepare a big meal but finally serving it to others!
Fang Yuan estimated that Immortal Annihilating Soul's heart had to be dripping blood now.
Gold Ingot checked several times and said to Fang Yuan, ”Not only does this body not have a soul, but it also received Blood Qi and natural source enhancements… That Immortal put in a lot of effort and resources into this body. It was obviously for his own use.”
”A first-grade peerless totem is naturally worthy!” Fang Yuan smiled. Light radiated from his hand, and a jade slip appeared. It was the 'Soul Possession Method'!
”You'll be punished if you don't take the chances given to you by the heavens… There are no problems after repeated checks. That Immortal Annihilating Soul obviously didn't think that I would steal Bamboo, so he probably didn't arrange anything on him. All that's left now is to just do it!”
Fang Yuan brought Bamboo's body into a secret room.
”I'll carry your karma since I'm going to use your body… Don't worry. I'll definitely take revenge for you and kill Immortal Annihilating Soul if he's still alive when I'm able to!” He offered a prayer and sealed the secret room.
All was dark without a trace of light.
Regardless of whether it was orthodox cultivators, demon cultivators, or barbarians, their essence souls would be very fragile until they reached the Immortal level. He could not see a shred of light when possessing.
This was all recorded in the ancient book.
The Kun Yun Sect of the Orthodox Dao and the Revenant Soul of the Demon Dao were the first to enter the barbarian lands.
He had found this reminder in the storage bag of Immortal Myriad Soul.
It seemed like this sect had researched a lot into souls and the like.
”Begin!”
Fang Yuan took a deep breath and operated the method.
Qi from the Clam Dragon rose and shrouded everything in fog. A Destiny Primordial Core emerged, and a small figure walked out.
”Essence Soul… split!”
He immediately felt pain like that of thousands of knives piercing him.
This unimaginable pain could even cause an Essence Soul to become unstable and collapse.
But who was Fang Yuan?
Even if his Essence Soul was splitting in two, the corner of his mouth merely twitched slightly. ”Gather!”
At that moment, two Essence Souls revolved and condensed into two smaller figures. One of them was clearly thirty percent larger than the other.
”Main Essence Soul, return!”
The larger Essence Soul nodded and entered his Primordial Core.
Fang Yuan exhaled, feeling exhaustion and weakness coming from the depths of his soul. Fang Yuan laughed bitterly. ”What a great loss to my Essence Soul. Fortunately, I have pills!”
Pills that nourished the soul were very rare among the barbarians, but those Immortals had high net worth, and he had obtained more luxurious items than from Annihilating Soul.
He did not hesitate to swallow three bottles of pills in a row and felt better immediately.
After a short rest, he formed hand seals and used various elixirs to nourish the split Essence Soul.
When he felt that it could improve no further, Fang Yuan nodded and pointed at the body. ”Go!”
Poof!
The small figure smiled and flung itself directly into Bamboo.
Bamboo's body trembled slightly and took a deep breath before long.
”Success!”
Fang Yuan could feel this body accepting his Essence Soul. He started sensing parts of the body to achieve the best effect.
”The Essence Soul still requires seven days and nights to fully adapt!”
He nodded, started meditating by the side, and swallowed pills while his clone slept.
Deep sleep was one of the best methods for the Essence Soul and the body to merge. Forcibly rousing him would be counterproductive to this perfect process, so Fang Yuan was not the least bit anxious.
…
Seven days and nights passed by in a flash.
Fang Yuan got up, feeling refreshed. ”Great, I should have recovered to ninety percent!”
His Essence Soul could naturally grow through various means; otherwise, he would not have been stupid enough to split a second Essence Soul out.
He was full of energy, standing silently beside Bamboo.
After some time, Bamboo sat up. His eyes sparkled as he exchanged glances with Fang Yuan.
”All right!”
Fang Yuan had experience manipulating his incarnations, so there was nothing he needed to adapt to since it was his own Essence Soul.
He walked out with his clone, stared at Bamboo's face, and rubbed his own chin. ”Hehe… Yet another new face. I'm a little not used to it!”
