Chapter 239 Professor Cao’s Journey to the Spirit World
Can a person live without a care?
In other words, without the support of the soul, can a person's body still show signs of life activities?
The answer is: yes and no.
There are many examples where this is not possible, such as a vegetative person who suffers from complete apathy, such as an animal that has been corroded by the aura of the spiritual world and turned into a stone treasure, such as a witch hunter knight whose soul was devoured by a furnace and turned into a statue.
There are many possible examples, such as the legendary Bigan of the Shang Dynasty, the legendary earth-bound spirit, and the lich whose spirituality replaced the soul and became the dominant body.
They follow the traces of the past and practice the decisions made by their hearts in the past.
Although they all have no future and can no longer make changes beyond their past thinking and decisions, there are real traces of life activities.
Why the ‘self-sufficient furnace improvement plan for the leek garden’ proposed by Lu Tingyu was supported by the previous generation of Lujiao people? In addition to the wonderful future that can be imagined if this direction of research is successful, there is another reason.
That is, if the core of the furnace like antlers really devours the soul, can the Witch Hunter Knight not turn into a statue?
The Antlers follow the rules of discipline, and if the leader proposes a direction, everyone will give their best to it.
However, the deer-antler people don't obey anyone. Each deer-antler wants to go further than the other.
Even if the opponent is the extremely talented Lu Tingyu.
Even the wealthy old man Chen Fugui would secretly study Dr. Zhang's theory of seven emotions and six desires, and figured out the magician's physical skills of digesting emotions like 'Contortion Technique', not to mention Professor Cao, who was eagerly expected by Lu Tingyu before his death to continue his research. .
He did it!
I don’t know from which generation, the apprentices of Witch Hunter Knights are all ordinary people. Even if they have extraordinary power because they inherited the core of the Antler Furnace, they are not wizards after all. It is difficult to feel what a wizard is like firsthand.
What Professor Cao did was to turn himself into a wizard.
This is almost impossible to achieve in the supernatural world. It is almost unheard of that a person without wizard blood has become a wizard.
Fortunately, there is a reckless wizard in Shenhou City, Liu Yuanmou, who has deeply studied the "heart-to-heart" witchcraft and transformed himself into a strange creature who is neither a human nor a ghost.
When the Antler Witch Hunting Knight chased the Eyeball Lich and found the big banyan tree, Professor Cao keenly sensed the opportunity!
Even Lao Zhang can graft his soul into this guy's body. It's not easy for Professor Cao to graft this guy's body and blood into his own body.
It relies on that big Shibao banyan tree.
Look, Liu Yuanmou's research on heart-to-heart witchcraft has simply turned himself into a platform.
This is a dangerous attempt and a failed one.
For Professor Cao, who has reached the ceiling of the witch hunter knight, Liu Yuanmou's wizard bloodline is too spicy.
Being firmly suppressed by the furnace, no matter how hard it was, no splash of water could come out.
Not even witchcraft can be performed.
It was at that time that Professor Cao figured out why the kid Lu Dexian couldn't even perform witchcraft.
Tiger poison doesn't even eat its seeds. Brother Lu is so crazy that he brutally attacked his own son!
He has been hesitating about this matter, wondering whether to take out the antlers from Lu Dexian's body. Xiao Lu seems to have found a way to get along with his father's furnace core. Maybe there will be other answers.
he does not know.
It has become increasingly difficult for him to think. Every time he sits on the chair, his head is so empty that there is not even the sound of water.
But no matter what, there is still some use in connecting Liu Yuanmou's 'platform' with blood.
Professor Cao suddenly had a whim one day and followed the blood traces all the way forward.
This is an experience he has never had before. Is this...a spell?
The power of extra dimensions is simply amazing.
He felt that this platform was connecting Lin An, and Chen Xin was competing for Lin An.
When his precious apprentice was threatened, he took action instinctively.
He swung his knife along the bloodline traces and instantly shattered the covetousness of the two wizards.
But at this time, he discovered an interesting thing. Lin An's furnace, which was similar to the core aura of his furnace, was essentially very different from his own!
The breathing furnace of Antlers is a harmonious one.
In principle, it means sealing one's own life activities and one's soul from being affected by the aura of the spiritual world.
And the 'Wizard's Furnace' he created was actually open, like an alchemy furnace without a lid, with the furnace opening leading to the spiritual world!
In just a moment, he made the decision to go from Lin An's wizard furnace to the spiritual world to have a look.
Then Professor Cao saw a scene that overturned his outlook on life.
Spirit world……
It’s the real world!
In other words, the spiritual world is the real world in another dimension.
In this world, everyone is running around with ideas. These ideas are no longer invisible brain waves, but tangible substances. Some are like water droplets, some are like knives, and some are like glue...
Professor Cao's increasingly stupid brain found it difficult to describe the texture of his 'idea' clearly, but it became the substance.
These essences, these ideas of each person, all collide with each other in a limited space.
Sometimes the collision is successful and the ideas are absorbed into other people's bodies.
Sometimes they collide and annihilate each other, turning into gray-black smoke.
There is no speed in the speed of thinking. Professor Cao traveled a long way in the spiritual world in an instant.
He found that the more people gathered in a place, the denser the population, the more 'ideas' collided there.
The gray-black smoke produced by these collisions began to become thicker and stratified.
Dark golden mist floated up and merged into the sky.
Black oil precipitated and covered the entire land.
so……
The origin of the spiritual world is actually due to the appearance of high-rise buildings in the real world?
The population of a community gathers the population of a village or even several villages, and a city can easily accommodate the population of the entire country.
Humanity has entered a higher density than ever before, and the collision of 'ideas' has begun to occur on a scale far greater than before?
Professor Cao didn't know that it was difficult for him to think deeply about such a concept.
But he was desperate - there seemed to be no way to destroy the spiritual world.
It seems that the only way is that the lich destroys the city and the spiritual world disappears?
What to do, he didn't know.
Maybe this is just the contact of a blind man and an elephant. After all, he is not a real wizard and has no way to truly contact the reality of the spiritual world.
So he thought of the method studied by Brother Lu's grandfather, the plan of 'turning the witch hunter knight into a lich and entering the spirit world' that was confirmed by the Antlers to be useless and harmful. He connected with the lich here and took over the lich's erosion. .
When it comes to spiritual games, Witch Hunter Knights are the best at it, enough to allow the Lich to corrode themselves to an appropriate degree.
He chose Lin An’s ‘Lich’.
After all, there are people connected with the melting pot, which will make this spiritual game easier.
What's interesting is that Lin An has three 'lichs'. One is a dark golden statue floating in the dark golden mist in the sky, the other is a head falling into the black oil on the ground, and the other is the opposite of Lin An. A darker, dark golden body without a head.
What does this picture represent?
he does not know.
He chose Lin An's headless body as the object to erode his mind. After all, he was gradually losing his head (thinking).
The effect is beyond expectation!
He, the witch hunter knight, has really become a lich in a certain sense!
…
In the real world, countless figures flickered and overlapped, each figure seemed to have lost its soul, and suddenly one of them came to life.
Without the suppression of the soul, the spiritual game was completely out of control. In another dimension, Lin An's spirituality completely eroded Professor Cao's spirituality.
The bronze-like jade-like antlers standing above Professor Cao's head are turning into dark gold bit by bit.
The antlers seemed to be turning into a living thing.
It began to take over the body of Professor Cao, who had lost his soul, and completely completed the 'lich transformation'.
It first looked up, and could see the spirits of everyone floating in the air, and could see Lin An turning into a black cat and resting on Liu Yuanmou's spirit, ready to bite but still.
It looked down and could see a black cat looking here anxiously. Seeing it, its eyes widened in horror.
"Chen Xin is obsessed with spirituality?"
It murmured, and the black cat was so frightened that it ran away, shouting as it ran, "Oh my God, the witch hunter knight has turned into a lich, I'm scared to death!"
But after a while, the black cat slipped back, looked at it curiously, and raised its black paw, as if it wanted to try to touch it.
It ignored the black cat and just slowly stretched out its hand.
The feeling of space began to become confusing. It clearly overlapped with Liu Yuanmou. He raised his arm flat, but it happened to be stuck on Liu Yuanmou's body.
It can no longer think at all.
What it can do is follow past behavioral judgments - Liu Yuanmou must die, Chen Xinmi is a good kid, Lao Zhang is a traveler, and Lin An is the one who inherits the legacy.
Therefore, it seemed that the only thing left to do was to take action against Liu Yuanmou.
Lao Cao has always been quick and decisive in his actions.
The powerful strength of the arm suddenly tightened.
Click!
There was a crisp sound, and Liu Yuanmou's old body and neck were shattered instantly as if a ramming machine had been hit hard.
This is not enough!
Expose your strength and crush your bones and scatter ashes!
In just an instant, Liu Yuanmou's body was completely destroyed.
Next, there was the two-story giant Liu Yuanmou. He twisted his neck and looked at it, then stretched out his hands to strangle the giant man's neck.
Beside him, the black cat swallowed his saliva and backed away subconsciously.
This man is so scary!
"Chen Xinmi!" Black Cat screamed, "Wake up quickly, it will be your turn to die soon!"
It anxiously walked around the overlapping figure, meowing, "Lin An! Lin An! Wake up! Woohoo, I'm so desperate, there's nothing I can do at this time!"
"I can't become a lich too..."
"Huh?"
The black cat tilted its head and blinked, why not?
Thinking of this, it quickly pounced into the overlapping body that was constantly flashing, and accurately entered Chen Xinmi's body.
