"Hehehe, Little Gu, you’ve matured, you can comfort people now. You’re right, let’s go back and rest; we have to seek immortals tomorrow."
That night, Xiao Jie unexpectedly did not have nightmares.
Early the next morning, he woke up early. In fact, Xiao Jie’s body no longer needed sleep, but he did so out of habit and to calm his mind.
After this night passed, he felt a lot better indeed.
He initially thought he would dream about the death of his teammates, but nothing happened.
Xiao Jie felt he had accepted the setting— they weren’t truly ’dead,’ just temporarily in the cetery, waiting for him to resurrect them.
Leaving the room, Xiao Jie turned on the computer and suddenly channeled his mana.
Outer Body Incarnation!
A blood mist spouted from within him, and Xiao Jie felt a sense of emptiness within, as if his body had been hollowed out all at once. That blood mist gathered into a humanoid form in mid-air, rapidly growing bones, flesh, skin, and facial features, and the most magical thing was that even the clothes appeared along with it.
Looking at that avatar who looked just like him, Xiao Jie felt like he was looking in a mirror.
Qi Healing Skill!
He channeled spiritual power, which quickly transford into life force within, nourishing his body and blood, gradually dispelling that sense of weakness.
With a thought, another perspective appeared in his eyes.
Indeed, Xiao Jie could switch and control both his body and avatar’s perspectives, but multitasking was sowhat difficult, so after giving it a try, he let the avatar act on its own.
"From today onwards, you’ll be called Xiao Xiao Jie." Xiao Jie said to the avatar.
"Received, so what do you need to do?" The avatar’s tone was identical to Xiao Jie’s.
If not for being able to switch to the avatar’s perspective at any ti to control it, watching soone just like him move around would indeed be rather creepy.
"Go make breakfast for first."
"No problem." The avatar saluted and turned into the kitchen, soon the sound of the frying pan and the sll of fried eggs and at wafted from the kitchen.
In actuality, Xiao Jie no longer needed to eat, but he was used to it, and having a hearty breakfast could sowhat boost morale in the morning.
When Gu Feiyu walked out of the bedroom, the table was already set with utensils and food.
The aroma was enticing.
"Jie— huh, Jie?"
Gu Feiyu looked at the two Xiao Jies with a face full of astonishnt.
Xiao Jie, while eating breakfast, explained: "This is my Outer Body Incarnation, Xiao Xiao Jie. From now on, the avatar will be responsible for shopping and cooking so we can enjoy playing gas in peace."
"Ah, understood." Gu Feiyu sat down uneasily, "Little Jie, aren’t you going to eat sothing too?"
"I’ve already eaten, you guys go ahead. I’m going to read for a while— by the way, main body, call directly if you need sothing. Don’t keep switching to my perspective, it’s annoying." Saying so, he casually picked a book from the shelf and started leafing through it.
Xiao Jie had bought quite a few physical books, but rarely read them. Watching the avatar read felt sowhat comforting— at least they weren’t bought in vain.
Suddenly, his heart stirred, and he switched to the avatar’s perspective. The next second, a piece of mory surged into his brain.
It was the prologue of that book, and as he glanced at it, it was word for word.
This Outer Body Incarnation was essentially an extension of Xiao Jie’s body, but it ca with a built-in AI simulating Xiao Jie. When Xiao Jie took over the body, this AI went into standby mode, and once Xiao Jie left the avatar, the AI would take over the body and act according to Xiao Jie’s thought patterns.
Moreover, each ti Xiao Jie took over the body, he would synchronously acquire all the mories of the avatar.
Not bad, not bad, this makes it convenient; using the avatar to learn and read books is indeed nice.
Switching back to his own perspective, the avatar was montarily dazed and looked at Xiao Jie speechlessly.
"I told you not to randomly switch perspectives..."
"Damn, where did a troubleso avatar like you co from? Focus on your reading, rember to make sothing nice for lunch, don’t just fry eggs all the ti; at least I’m a Grandmaster Level chef, alright?"
Of course, Xiao Jie wouldn’t be polite with his avatar, and he knew that the avatar didn’t possess independent consciousness; all its actions and reactions were rely simulations of his thoughts.
Having given his instructions, Xiao Jie went about logging into the ga.
Leaving the inn, he conducted the last supply run without hesitation, transford into a Storm Thunder Eagle, and flew north.
Soon, the walls of Lonely Mountain Town vanished from the view behind him.
Ahead there were only continuous mountains, dense forests, and snow-covered land; a barren expanse stretched as far as the eye could see.
Xiao Jie flew while comparing the map routes, and at this speed, he’d reach the map’s edge before noon. The thought of soon finding Gu Yun State excited Xiao Jie.
An hour passed, then two. At first, the forest below still had patches of green, but the farther north he went, the less green there was, white becoming the dominant color. Even the dense forest was completely covered with snow.
As he flew further north, even the forest turned sparse.
Occasionally he spotted powerful demon beasts, barbarians cloaked in beast skin, or transparent Ice and Snow Ghosts wandering in the wild, generally Level 40-50 big monsters; Xiao Jie even saw a Level 56 Frost Giant chasing a herd of long-haired elephants.
