Wang Jixuan had set up a temporary small chamber using a cloth curtain.
He didn’t rashly use the Soul Capturing Charm, his signature ability, but simply pinched a Magic Formula and silently recited a spell.
A trace of faint light infiltrated the space.
The Primordial Soul of ng Caiyuan, which had almost left his body, slowly sat up, passing through the barrier of the Nutrition Storage.
The youth appeared stunned for a mont, looked down at his own body lying in the chamber, and then calmly looked toward Wang Jixuan, who was wearing a helt.
The voice of the youth appeared in the depths of Wang Jixuan’s mind.
The two communicated in a silent environnt.
"Who are you?" the youth’s voice trembled slightly.
"Code na Black Storm, Military Spirit Ability User," Wang Jixuan transmitted, introducing himself, "My ability is to occasionally speak with the souls of those nearing death."
"Alright, Mr. Storm," the youth asked, "What do you need to do for you?"
Wang Jixuan gazed at the soul: "Can you communicate with Blade Beasts?"
The youth seed to be thinking.
His emotions unexpectedly calm, so calm there was not the slightest ripple, just like a... polite machine.
"Actually, it’s hardly communication, it’s mostly just issuing simple commands to them."
The youth spoke softly:
"If it’s according to what the professors and researchers say, it’s a type of interference signal that intrudes into the Blade Beasts’ communication system. Low-level Blade Beasts would recognize as a General Level Blade Beast lifeform.
"Likewise, this requires so devices. Due to the state of my being, the Spiritual Ability Waves I can release are very weak.
"They usually jokingly call that type of device an ’amplifier.’"
Wang Jixuan grew more curious about this youth, trying to keep his tone gentle as he asked, "Weren’t you always in a coma? How do you know these things?"
"Only my body was in a coma."
The youth calmly said:
"You are the first Spirit Ability User who can communicate with in this state; before, I only observed them in this state.
"It must be related to your own abilities.
"Going back to your earlier question, my precise answer is—I can issue commands to a small part of Blade Beasts, send them unilateral ssages, but I can’t understand them."
Wang Jixuan slowly nodded: "Are there many individuals like you in the Thirteenth Institute?"
"In a sense, very few but also many."
The youth quickly explained:
"The research directions within the Thirteenth Institute are probably extrely chaotic; they are divided into thousands of research groups.
"Based on the information I have observed from them over a long period, I am an individual who erged from an accidental situation, so there are few.
"But I am not a normal human individual.
"I originated from a being called a ’Beast Speaker,’ an S-Level Spirit Ability User, whose stem cells were used as cloning material to cultivate ; even in my most ideal state, my lifespan can only reach between thirty-seven and forty-two years.
"From my batch of Clones, initially, there were three thousand and four hundred that survived, after experints of infusion of spiritual abilities, only three hundred and twenty remained, and after more than ten years of cultivation and various experints, twelve are now extant, but each awakened Spiritual Ability differs, with only three slightly similar to those of a Beast Speaker.
"So in a sense, there could be many individuals like .—as long as they increase the sample input volu."
Wang Jixuan slightly leaned back, frowning as he observed the youth: "Your... emotions? Why can’t I feel any changes in your emotions?"
"I have had part of my brain tissue removed."
The youth said calmly.
Possibly because he was in a soul state, his gaze appeared very gentle.
"Mr. Storm, if you need it, I can simulate so emotions.—In fact, I do have emotions, just very faint.
"For example, when facing Researcher Qin Qin, I would show a gentle and timid side.
"She actually is a pitiful person, she was raped by her supervisor in the laboratory during her student years while completing her thesis; I was about eight years old at the ti, not far from her, later her supervisor treated her as a pet, exchanging her with other old n’s pets.
"Many tis, such unbearable occurrences happen inside the supposedly pristine laboratories.
"So, I understand why Researcher Qin Qin, when later studying my sample, constantly stimulated, played with my male characteristics; she did this to obtain the pleasure of completely controlling a lifeform, to fill the void created by her wounded soul.
"But I think, our current soul-based communication should be the most fundantal, the most sincere form of interaction... I don’t need to add those emotions."
Wang Jixuan folded his arms, took two steps back, and carefully examined the youth’s physical condition.
Daoist Wang asked, "Can you sense the location of Blade Beasts?"
"I need equipnt for occasional sensing; each ti, they have to operate for a long ti, similar to a type of biological radar."
The youth calmly said:
"I only have a very small part of the Beast Speaker’s abilities, as well as the current ability to observe various places."
"This belongs to a case of Primordial Soul leaving the body, proving the strength of your soul."
Wang Jixuan explained simply.
That was also the reason he had Lingtong leave first.
Although Lingtong was physically robust, with a chanically augnted arm that had impressive lethal power, her soul’s defensive strength was not considered strong.
"Have you finished asking?" the youth asked.
"Hmm," Wang Jixuan lightly nodded.
A very faint sense of unease appeared in the youth’s eyes: "Then may I ask you a few questions? Probably just four questions would suffice... You are the first human to interact with in this sincere, utterly truthful manner."
"You may," Wang Jixuan said, "I can see the state of your soul, you indeed haven’t committed any evil acts, and moreover, you have previously assisted the Military by misleading the Blade Beast Group."
