Arcane Lord

As his soul becomes more and more solidified and his perception continues to increase, Shado is able to discover the vicious curse imposed on him by the illusion master Zhamdas without resorting to other means.

It’s as easy and obvious as looking at lines on the palm of your hand!

As he thought before, Mojave transmitted a large amount of consciousness information to him through the connection between the consciousnesses of both parties at the moment when the mental world collapsed.

Those consciousness information are similar to computer viruses, which are at the software level, but they actually affect the soul, the special hardware of the human body.

His current state of soul solidification is equivalent to changing the computer hardware together with its adapted consciousness software. Then the "virus" that originally parasitized in it has become prominent due to compatibility issues.

Of course, since the consciousness itself cannot execute the self-delete command, and the virus in it cannot be deleted, unless Xia Duo maintains his current soul solidification state, he will still have to face that problem sooner or later.

So he chose to peel off part of the hardware (soul fragments), thereby peeling off the virus locked in it.

Judging from Xia Duo's current understanding, only his consciousness, not his soul, can represent the essence of a person. However, the two are very closely combined and often influence each other. It is almost impossible to completely separate them. Impossible.

Because Xia Duo can accurately position himself at the conscious level, he dares to peel off the fragments of his soul. Otherwise, if he is not careful, his personality may be mutilated, and at the worst, he may lose his memory.

But before he could start peeling off the soul fragments, the main body of the soul that had solidified to a certain extent naturally began to reject the parts that were inconsistent with the main body.

At the same time, Shaduo also started corresponding operations at the level of consciousness, while tapping into the convergence trend of Mojave consciousness while locating all information about himself.

“I really didn’t expect that!”

Originally, these two steps needed to be carried out separately. At first, Xia Duo was worried that there would be mistakes if done separately. Now, with the powerful perception of the solidified soul, he can clean up the consciousness at the conscious level while the soul automatically eliminates "lesions".

…

In this way, as the degree of solidification of the soul continued to increase, the progress of Sha Duo's self-rescue also continued to increase, and soon reached the critical point——

At the end of the solidification of the soul, although the dark red threads wrapped around the soul are essentially from the soul itself, at this moment, driven by instinct, the main body of the soul does not identify with these alienated small parts of the soul.

Therefore, when the main body of Xia Duo's soul was completely transformed into a crystal villain, the twelve dark red threads that were originally connected to the soul's surface were instantly torn off, or in other words, were expelled.

At the level of consciousness, Shado also set off a storm of consciousness information, throwing out most of the sensory information he had received when incarnating others in the projection plane, which he had given up and never interpreted.

Wrapping up the shattered Mojave consciousness, it was abandoned at the moment when the soul fragments were peeled off.

At the same time, at the reality level in the laboratory, the soul-encrypting gem that had been prepared was immediately activated, imprisoning the soul fragments that Sha Duo had stripped away.

When Xia Duo returned to reality, he immediately looked at the soul-binding gem beside him. There was a knotted dark red thread floating in it, which was the fragment of his soul.

It's just that he has just deliberately injected a large amount of elves' sensory information, coupled with the original Mojave consciousness, at this time, this group of soul fragments quickly transformed into a hybrid image with many elven characteristics.

The human part is presumably derived from the self-awareness of the Mojave ontology.

Xia Duo observed that the image did not stabilize in the end, but continued to twist and change, as if it had fallen into a great cognitive disorder.

He was not sure whether Mojave's body was dead, but it was obvious that although the other party's consciousness had completed the "body seizing", it was also contaminated by the garbage consciousness information abandoned by Sha Duo.

If he can find a way for the other party to automatically reorganize the chaotic information fragments, then he may be able to create several sub-personalities in his consciousness with the help of the consciousness information received from the projection plane.

The next time you encounter this kind of "separation" situation, let the sub-personality come in, and then use a large number of sub-personalities to assimilate the opponent.

"Mohave, do you remember me?"

Xia Duo communicated with the other party through the psychic interference field, and he even wanted to thank the other party for giving him such a comprehensive equation spell in the psychic field.

But it is a pity that Mohave's consciousness has been confused at this moment. Even the mechanism that automatically reorganizes consciousness cannot save this situation. When faced with Xia Duo's inquiry, he only asked an almost instinctive question:

"Who is Mojave? I am Mojave? No! I am Brandon! No, I am Athos! No, I am Silin! No, I am Lael Akarama, Cormanthor The only true king!"

Just when Sha Duo felt disappointed and wanted to put away the Soul-Restraining Gem, Mojave's consciousness briefly regained clarity and shouted to Sha Duo:

"Lord Shado? I didn't expect that everyone underestimated you. You actually have the essence of an elf hidden under your human appearance! But don't think that you win, I will always haunt you! We are one, I It’s you! You’re me!”

In this regard, Xia Duo just shook his head helplessly. Can't this guy even feel his own situation? He didn't want to compete with the consciousness of a madman, so he put away the Soul-Restraining Gem when the other person was about to fall into madness again.

Now the value of this soul-binding gem is not only the value of Niya's family heirloom, but also the experience and knowledge of a psychic master, and even the many secrets of the elf world.

Of course, if his soul fragments were included, it would be even more immeasurable, but he had no intention of selling it, but planned to study it carefully after returning from Everesca.

As for now, Xia Duo feels that the extraordinary perception brought about by the solidification of the soul is rapidly degrading, which also means that the solidification of the soul has begun to reverse.

After all, it is not a complete immortality ceremony, and the most critical step of preserving the soul is missing. Of course, Xia Duo does not feel regretful, because the solidification of the soul also means that the connection with the outside world will be interrupted one by one.

This includes the connection to the body.

If there is no step to preserve the soul, solidifying the soul is equivalent to death. The moment the soul is completely solidified, it will be attracted to the outer plane.

However, in order to completely eliminate the hidden danger of Mojave invading consciousness, Shado also paid a huge blow, one of which was that he had to re-establish the link between body and soul.

The body here refers to his true body. The intrusion of consciousness affects not only the soul projection, because consciousness is the only one, but actually affects the true soul.

Otherwise, as long as the incarnation is abandoned, everything will be fine. How could the consciousness invasion of a psychic master be resolved so easily?

Fortunately, Sha Duo had mastered the resurrection spell before and was able to reestablish the connection between the body and the soul. Otherwise, he would not have dared to do this, and he was fully prepared before performing the "soul surgery".
