Chapter 111 – 102: Doppelganger
Baili Jin Yan’s consciousness had recovered, but he was unable to use even the slightest bit of Spiritual Power within his body, and he couldn’t even open his eyelids.
A pain like flaying and deboning spread from every part of his body, and no part could escape this sensation of pain.
Just as he had tortured Li Shiming, he had tortured Li Shiming to the extre of soul pain, but now it was his body that was in extre pain.
“I’ve been captured by that Li Shiming! He’s torturing
with the sa thods!” Baili Jin Yan thought about his situation and guessed a possibility.
He didn’t have Li Shiming’s endurance. The re thought made it impossible for him to think further.
Because of the pain, he lost his ability to think; the terrifying pain made his soul tremble.
He didn’t understand what thods Li Shiming had used to render his Body Refinent, perfected in the Qi Refinent Realm and comparable to an early-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivator’s body, completely immobile.
Even he was slowly losing his awareness of his body and simultaneously, he felt sothing eroding his soul.
Baili Jin Yan didn’t know that his bodily restriction wasn’t intentional by Li Shiming, but rather a result of the Life-bound Corpse Refinent process.
Baili Jin Yan’s body was transitioning towards Corpse Refinent, and this was a forced conversion using a living person’s body.
Not that no Cultivators had researched the feasibility of converting a living person into a Corpse Refinent; in fact, this cruel thod had never stopped being experinted with by malevolent Cultivators.
But starting from the early stages of a living body’s Corpse Refinent would result in failure, confounding all Cultivators.
Baili Jin Yan’s body was special; a Tier 3 artifact’s ’faux death’ had even deceived the Life-bound Corpse Refinent Corpse Liquid in the early phase of the body’s transformation.
The transformation liquid needed more than five ’two hour periods’ to convert the faux dead body before the Tier 3 artifact took effect and began repairing Baili Jin Yan’s body.
This subjected Baili Jin Yan to even greater pain. If it were just the transformation liquid, he would have died very quickly, preventing prolonged tornt.
It was because of the Tier 3 artifact that his body was repetitively fought over by the transforming Corpse Liquid and the healing powers of the artifact.
In this tug-of-war, the biggest victim was Baili Jin Yan.
Gradually, Baili Jin Yan’s consciousness dissolved, his final unwillingness slipping away slowly, replaced by a Corpse Refinent spirit created from the transformation liquid containing Li Shiming’s blood.
And an important point was that the control room space, a special area bound to Li Shiming’s soul, was unknowingly strengthening the connection between the Corpse Refinent spirit and Li Shiming as it ford.
The connection between a Life-bound Corpse Refinent and its master is already deep, but the control room space significantly enhanced this connection, ensuring a perfect match with Li Shiming in the newly created spirit.
Since Baili Jin Yan’s body had not moved at all, IBMz15 did not issue a warning to Li Shiming, allowing the whole process to occur without disturbing Li Shiming’s rest.
Two hours later, the internal struggle in Baili Jin Yan’s body finally ended.
This body neither transford completely into a Corpse Refinent nor was it healed by the Tier 3 artifact; instead, it remained in a state known as a Living Corpse. Your next journey awaits at Novgo
Living Corpses are naturally occurring special types of zombies that require extrely strict conditions, many high-tier artifacts, and nurous coincidences to form.
Records of Living Corpses co from history, where they are cited as the rarest kind of zombie.
This type of zombie possesses vitality, yet shares the sa defensive power and cold aura as regular zombies, representing a life form between life and death.
After a deep sleep, Li Shiming woke up feeling his exhaustion swept away and his body was in optimal condition.
Recalling what had happened earlier, he thought of the body left in the control room space.
Just as he was thinking about it, the scene before him blurred, and he appeared in a room with a white ceiling four ters high.
He was sowhat at a loss, wondering what was going on.
“Could I have traveled through ti again?” he wondered, feeling the condition of his body.
He couldn’t bla himself for thinking this way because this body was too special. The almost overflowing sense of strength and the dense Spiritual Energy Vortex in his body clearly indicated that this was not his original body.
Compared to his original body, this body was much more powerful.
In terms of strength alone, he estimated that one hand of this body could easily overpower his original body, even if the original used Spells or Magic Artifacts.
Not to ntion the Spiritual Energy Vortex inside; though Qi Refinent was divided into nine levels, all of them were actually stages of the Spiritual Energy Vortex’s growth.
The Spiritual Energy Vortex within him now was of a quality beyond his imagination.
The massive Spiritual Energy Vortex inside him, in terms of size alone, was more than ten tis larger than his original vortex.
He tried to sit up and his gaze fell on a plant nearby.
“Isn’t this a spirit tea tree?” he murmured to himself.
He then saw more familiar items: IBMz15, uninterruptible power supply, perpetual motion generators, and so forth; he imdiately understood where he was.
He had never observed the control room space from this angle before; he had always controlled it from a god-like perspective with his consciousness.
He had also tried entering the control room space himself, but his body was unable to enter it.
