Immortal after a Hundred Reincarnations
Chapter 271 - 129: One Body, 2 Wisdom SoulsInside his Sea of Consciousness, Xu Lei didn’t know how to wield the power of his soul.
He had never studied the methods of Ancient Spirit Immortals before.
He could only move and dodge like a mortal using their physical body.
Hui Lu, however, had clearly studied them.
This must have been the source of his confidence, the reason he dared to attack Xu Lei directly!
Of course, Xu Lei wasn’t panicked in the slightest.
Based on his prior understanding, the techniques of this world’s Ancient Spirit Immortals couldn’t affect the Ten Thousand Lives Book.
Sure enough, the moment the green light grazed his form,
the skin of Xu Lei’s Soul Body began to emit a subtle glow.
It was the Ten Thousand Lives Book’s protective power over the soul.
But Xu Lei didn’t immediately counterattack.
In that instant, Xu Lei suddenly gained a new understanding of the Ten Thousand Lives Book.
He sensed that every single page of the Ten Thousand Lives Book actually contained a sliver of his own Soul Origin!
The protective energy the Ten Thousand Lives Book offered his current Soul Body was actually quite limited.
The main body of the Ten Thousand Lives Book was filled with a protective energy ten thousand times stronger.
’The principle behind the Ten Thousand Lives Book might be that it had long ago made ten thousand imprints of my original Soul Origin,’ he thought.
’Sealed within its pages.’
’Each page holds a sliver of my Soul Origin.’
’And my current Soul Body was likely nurtured from one sliver of that Origin within my physical body for this life.’
’In other words, even if my soul in this life is destroyed...’
’...it would only mean losing a single life.’
’As long as I don’t run out of all ten thousand lives...’
’...I can still be reincarnated.’
’The Ten Thousand Lives Book... Excellent. Very reliable!’
Xu Lei sensed its power and couldn’t help but feel satisfied.
This way, even if he encountered a powerful Ancient Spirit Immortal in the future,
even if his soul was destroyed, it wouldn’t affect his reincarnation. At most, he’d just lose one life!
With this knowledge, Xu Lei was as steady as a mountain.
’Ten thousand lives! With that many chances, I could crush any Ancient Spirit Immortal!’
Of course, that was just a thought.
After all, in this era, no one had heard of an Ancient Spirit Immortal existing for a very long time.
Meanwhile, Hui Lu hadn’t stopped assailing Xu Lei with the green light.
But Xu Lei simply endured his green light attacks.
He didn’t suffer a single injury.
"Impossible!"
Hui Lu’s expression changed drastically. "How can this be?!" he exclaimed in disbelief.
Xu Lei stopped examining the Ten Thousand Lives Book, opened his eyes, and looked coldly at Hui Lu.
He didn’t waste any words.
"Suppress!"
With a single thought from Xu Lei,
his mind activated the Ten Thousand Lives Book.
Instantly, the Ten Thousand Lives Book flew out from the depths of Xu Lei’s Sea of Consciousness.
RUMBLE...
An enormous book appeared high above the space of his Sea of Consciousness.
It radiated a brilliant light
that rained down below.
Like sunlight melting snow and ice,
the skin of Hui Lu’s Soul Body began to burn. His face twisted in excruciating pain as he let out unending, bloodcurdling screams.
"I was perfectly polite to you. I was even thinking of a way to get you out of here and back into your own body."
Xu Lei looked at Hui Lu and said, "But you treated me like a fool!
You even tried to steal my body. You deserve to die!"
As he spoke,
Xu Lei shot forward with a cold expression, landing a vicious punch on Hui Lu with his current Soul Body.
POW!
Xu Lei’s punch twisted and shattered half the face of Hui Lu’s Soul Body!
"Die!"
Xu Lei then kicked him in the crotch.
THWACK!
The blow caused Hui Lu’s Soul Body to break apart and disperse.
Before long, Hui Lu’s Soul Body had turned into countless fragments, drifting within Xu Lei’s Sea of Consciousness.
They looked like tiny mirrors.
Or like fireflies dancing in the air.
Within them, fragments of Hui Lu’s life appeared.
Xu Lei was a little surprised.
But before Xu Lei could finish viewing the contents of these fragments,
they all shattered into dust.
Xu Lei felt a pang of regret, as he hadn’t been able to see much of Hui Lu’s memories.
He never expected, however,
that he would suddenly feel some of Hui Lu’s memories appear in his own mind.
Of course, they didn’t merge with his own consciousness; it was more like watching a series of movie clips.
Xu Lei guessed it was probably because the dust had been absorbed by his Sea of Consciousness.
Of course, it didn’t include Hui Lu’s entire life from beginning to end.
It was only a portion.
Perhaps Hui Lu’s Soul Body hadn’t been complete, but was merely a fragment of his soul.
Or perhaps Hui Lu’s memories were damaged and lost during the transfer process.
Xu Lei couldn’t be sure.
After that, Xu Lei took another look around his Sea of Consciousness.
After confirming that there were no other problems, he was able to rest easy.
Then, he wondered how he could wake up.
He suddenly felt that he could control his own body again.
The next moment, his consciousness was no longer within his Sea of Consciousness,
but had returned to his physical body.
He tried to return to his Sea of Consciousness, but he couldn’t!
The feeling of strolling through his Sea of Consciousness as a Soul Body was gone.
The only thing he could still perceive was the Ten Thousand Lives Book within his Sea of Consciousness.
Xu Lei didn’t dwell on it.
After he opened his eyes,
Xu Lei found Zhao Xin and Jingchun watching over him.
The three of them were still in the stone chamber, next to the coffin containing Hui Lu’s body.
Hui Lu’s body was still not dead.
It remained in a state of living death.
The coffin preserving his physical body was a Magical Artifact that steadily supplied it with energy, maintaining its vitality.
Unsure of Xu Lei’s current condition, Jingchun and Zhao Xin hadn’t dared to move his body.
