61 Chapter 61 – Soul Integration (2/2)
After hearing Shen Long, he also found issues about his emotions. For example, his unusual enmity towards Zhu Lang and the moment he awakened his bloodline also because he was angered by Zhu Lang. He shouldn't have been that emotional about Zhu Lang and also when Zhu Donglai expelled him from the clan, he felt disappointed, sad and angry. Also his closeness towards his aunt, like she is his only family member since the moment he met her.
He shouldn't have felt those feelings in the first place because he doesn't have anything to do with Zhu clan or them, only the predecessor of this body had known them since his childhood not himself.
At that point of thinking, he thought of a possibility and was shocked.
Looking at Zhu Xuan's shocked face, Shen Long answered ”Looks like you guessed what happened. If I'm not wrong, you didn't replace the body predecessor's soul, but when he died you integrated his dissipating soul to yours and took his body.”
”This situation is called Soul integration, which is an soul method practiced by evil cultivators to devour others soul and strengthen their own soul, but they lose their own self in the integration of various souls and become bloodthirsty killers. Even though you didn't intend this, I didn't expect this to happen to you and this will influence your emotions of both souls and cause mutual destruction.”
Zhu Xuan was terrified that he will lose himself and now understood why he felt his consciousness getting fuzzy when he used his bloodline power; it is not because of his bloodline transformation but because of the issue with his soul.
Zhu Xuan looked at Shen Long with expectation. Shen Long answered ”The problem those evil cultivators lose their mind due to Soul integration is because when the other soul is absorbed they are influenced by the anger of that soul for being killed mainly and the other strong emotions they had while living.”
”Since you have only integrated with this body's predecessor's soul is an accident and it is only one soul you integrated, we have ways to solve it. First, if I'm not wrong, bloodline awakening is mainly because of the predecessor's anger towards Zhu Lang and craving for power to kill him, because he was killed because of Zhu Lang's plot. You have to kill that Zhu Lang if you want to keep your anger and the thirst for power in control.”
Shen Long continued ”Another method is you accept this predecessor's identity as completely yours and accept his soul and memory completely as one without losing your own. But, I feel that you should try this and also you have to kill Zhu Lang because of your special situation.”
Zhu Xuan understood this point and nodded ”His own emotion is already craving to get strong and powerful so that he can find a way to get back to Earth, now mix the emotion of this body's predecessor and you have a bloody big mess.”
Shen Long saw that he understood and continued ”I can seal your bloodline until you are strong enough to go against your enemies, but since your awakening is based on the emotions of craving for power and to kill Zhu Lang, if those emotions arose and go beyond a point the seal will not be able to control your emotions and you will be found out by your enemies.”
So he has to try both methods, but killing Zhu Lang should be on the top of the list because the emotional imbalance of his anger and craving to gain power could really cause an issue for him.
He finally decided and said ”Please seal the bloodline in my body Senior Long. I will work on controlling my emotions by accepting the other soul and also will try to find a method to reach Zhu Lang”
Shen Long nodded and said ”Okay, I will seal your bloodline now but you have to relinquish your right for the reward for this mission. And I can also seal your bloodline in the future if you activated your bloodline but you should not know that every time you use your bloodline power, your bloodline gets stronger and it will get harder for me to seal it and you have to pay a higher price.”
Then Shen Long spent half an hour to completely seal the bloodline and Zhu Xuan finally relaxed.
But what Shen Long didn't tell Zhu Xuan was that not every bloodline power increase every time they use it, and it only happens for Zhu Xuan because he has a royal bloodline.
Shen Long thought with a grim face ”I really hope his bloodline isn't related to those bloodthirsty maniacs.”
