However, what the other party said next was sowhat beyond his imagination.
"At the ti when you severely injured the soul of the [Pioneer], I took the opportunity to tear a thread of my own soul and hide it in the Sealing Bottle, the sa one that contained the last Prince of Fierce Ghosts of the [Lost Realm]."
[Yin Qiming] said in an incredibly calm tone, as if discussing what to have for lunch.
"I was betting that you would seize the chance when the [Pioneer] was severely injured to clear the [Promised Land], and in order to protect the organization, he would use the trump card of the [Lost Realm], which would naturally bring out my thread of soul."
At this point, Wu Liang’s expression already showed a hint of surprise.
Yet he didn’t expect even more daring moves from this guy were still to co.
"I was also aware of the bloodline curse on Triton and Director Long’s family, so after it was released, Director Long absolutely couldn’t face it personally." [Yin Qiming] said with so luck. "I also bet the officials would definitely send you to handle Triton."
"The final bet was that during the last phase of exorcizing, Triton would certainly manage to cast so sort of curse on you, then attach my thread of soul to it."
"..."
This was followed by a long silence from Wu Liang.
What [Yin Qiming] described was less of a gamble and more of a hope for a miracle from heaven.
Yet, this miracle indeed happened!
Even though he spoke so lightly, any single error in these steps would lead to a complete failure.
If the [Pioneer] had chosen to watch coldly as the [Promised Land] vanished; if the officials had not sent Wu Liang to deal with Triton, the last Prince of Fierce Ghosts of the [Lost Realm]; if the opponent hadn’t cast a curse during the exorcism or Wu Liang had found a way to resist the curse.
None of these following events would have happened.
After several minutes, Wu Liang reluctantly spoke, "Dude... you really are the reincarnation of the God of Gamblers, aren’t you? Even Chen Daozai winning hundreds of millions from 20 bucks at the casino isn’t this exaggerated!"
But no matter how much he ridiculed [Yin Qiming] for this daring sche.
The fact remains that he succeeded.
By finding a loophole through the already damaged soul perception of the [Pioneer], he finally achieved contact with Wu Liang.
"I just want you to help successfully separate my soul, and as a reward, you can also gain the location of the [Pioneer’s] true body as well as the plans for future actions."
It must be said that [Yin Qiming]’s request was hard to refuse.
Especially since Wu Liang, ever since coming out of Apang Palace, had wanted to find the [Pioneer] to understand the situation of the Great Qin Army and the First Emperor in the old world.
Only after completely dealing with this threat could Wu Liang have the energy to think about how the Second Supernatural Calamity would ultimately end human civilization.
And in what manner he should resolve this final crisis.
Thus, the two struck a deal and reached an agreent.
"First, you need to find a way to hide , hide in a place where the [Pioneer] cannot find or detect beforehand, otherwise, once his wounds heal, he will sense sothing as soon as he approaches you." [Yin Qiming] reminded Wu Liang.
His words imdiately prompted Wu Liang to think of a great hiding place.
So he said, "That’s easy, I’ll just hide you within my own soul; no matter what thods he has, there’s no way he can detect your true existence."
If [Yin Qiming]’s betting behavior made Wu Liang exclaim that he was the reincarnation of the God of Gamblers, then this thod proposed by Wu Liang made him exclaim extravagance to the extre!
One must know that the spirit and soul are the core of a person; his current attachnt as a minuscule fragnt outside Wu Liang’s soul is already the limit.
If he were to hide directly inside the soul, the two would certainly affect each other!
But regarding this situation, after a mont of contemplation, Wu Liang smiled mysteriously and said, "No worries, this influence is only temporary, your soul fragnt cannot cause any permanent distortion to ."
Seeing that he couldn’t win the argunt, [Yin Qiming] could only go along with it, gritting his teeth.
From that day onwards, when Nightmare and other Fierce Ghost Minions noticed that Wu Liang’s state began becoming strange, his thinking and personality turned exceedingly cold.
This was the manifestation of his soul being affected.
Because what’s occurring here is only a fragnt of [Yin Qiming]’s soul, the real core is still inside the [Pioneer], so in a sense, the abnormal state of Wu Liang over these days also counts as half of the [Pioneer]’s consciousness changing its way of thinking.
At the sa ti, even the [Pioneer] himself, hiding deep in the mountains attempting to attract City-Destroying Level Fierce Ghosts using supernatural objects, was subtly influenced by Wu Liang’s thoughts via the soul link with [Yin Qiming].
This is also why the [Pioneer] occasionally found himself enjoying nitpicking over trivial matters.
Even during this point and in conflict with Wu Liang, he noticeably spoke more than before.
Now everything finally ca to light!
As part of the [Pioneer]’s soul, [Yin Qiming] could naturally take his place and lift the soul-binding curse placed on Zeng Hu.
To deceive Wu Liang’s perception and perform the soul-binding curse, [Pioneer] had brought out all his cards carried with this avatar.
Yet due to [Yin Qiming]’s ddling, he suddenly found himself in the awkward situation of breaking the cauldrons and sinking the boats with no spoils to replenish ahead.
"Truly cunning, you deliberately lured out one of my avatars just to reach this mont, why can you always set a trap before I do? Which one of us truly rembers the previous world’s mories?"
At this point, the [Pioneer] did not intend to struggle anymore.
In fact, even [Yin Qiming], beside him, was shocked by everything Wu Liang managed to accomplish, making it feel like he was the one possessing mories of the future.
"Alright, alright, let’s cut the flattery here. We need to perform a lobotomy now."
Wu Liang sneered as he approached the pitiful shell of the [Pioneer] that had turned into a muddy ss.
On his face, a strange purple-red Nightmare Mask appeared, slowly rging into the ultimate ntal spirit form.
Snap—
A crisp snap of fingers broke the silence.
The Emotion Ghost inside Zeng Hu, which had been completely dormant, suddenly woke up in fear: "Damn! I just had a dream, an endless nightmare that seed impossible to wake from!"
The mont it spoke, it saw Wu Liang patting the mud on the ground.
In its utterly horrified gaze, like a world-class sculptor at work, the mud began reassembling, gradually forming the rough outline of a human.
Soon, its features like eyes, ears, mouth, and nose started to take shape, taking only a few minutes to revert from a pile of mud back to the form it had when the [Pioneer] first arrived on the plains.
Seeing this, Wu Liang couldn’t resist teasing, "You really went all out! This body was made with special supernatural objects, wasn’t it? Oh, no, to be precise, it itself is a humanoid supernatural object!"
Honestly, if it weren’t for the [Pioneer]’s special body, it would have been extrely difficult to find a shell that could perfectly accommodate the separated soul of [Yin Qiming].
Now, all he needed to do was perform the surgery!
By using [Yin Qiming]’s soul fragnt to forcefully separate his core from the [Pioneer]’s body, inevitably both would suffer varying degrees of soul damage.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s not like I’m the one in pain.
For sothing that could conveniently re-injure the recently healed [Pioneer], Wu Liang was more than delighted to get to work!
"Kekeke! This is gonna hurt a lot, don’t cry... Crying’s on the clock! Hahaha!"
