Chapter 368: Chapter 357: lter Wizard
Pain derived from the soul is sothing not even the strongest will can exempt from.
Especially when the creator of this pain is Tang Qi himself.
Soul Splitting Spell!
In essence, a crude understanding of it is the dissection of the soul.
If cultivated to a profound degree, it may be painless, so silent that one can dissect and segnt a soul—their own or another’s—without notice.
Regrettably, among the witchcraft Tang Qi specialized in—Guardian Spell, Illusion Spell, Body Control Spell, and even Life Spell—he had only a shallow practice in the “Soul Splitting Spell,” despite possessing a much stronger understanding of the soul than ordinary Transcendents.
At this mont, he had no ti to pay attention to the transformation happening to his lting Furnace Power.
But was fully exerting the Soul Splitting Spell in another unknowable dinsion.
Tang Qi seed to have birthed another “self,” like the clumsiest of surgeons, wielding an infinitely sharp “surgical knife,” and lying ekly before him on the surgery table was the “patient,” which was also himself.
The intangible surgical knife thodically dissected himself.
Self observes self!
What Tang Qi saw was a powerful soul.
Yet within it, there were so unusual “marks.”
They originated from the two souls Tang Qi had devoured: the original owner and Old Morgan. Although the soul breath of the two was masterless or willingly devoured by Tang Qi, bearing not even a hint of resentnt, there was no chance of creating an “immune rejection” reaction.
Now, their essence was Tang Qi’s soul.
But leaving marks was inevitable.
This scene didn’t surprise Tang Qi at all.
Unless one specifically cultivated a sinister Profession related to the “soul,” almost all Transcendents would avoid contaminating their souls with the soul breath of others, as it would provoke significant trouble.
But Tang Qi clearly had no second choice at that ti.
For the sake of reversal, for Rebirth, Tang Qi had resolutely absorbed Old Morgan’s half soul breath and the original owner’s entire soul.
But now, perhaps it was another opportunity?
Of course, regardless it was an opportunity or not, he had to cast the “Soul Splitting Spell.”
It was the price to preserve his self.
“What consequences will arise from peeling away the soul breath of the two?”
While acting, this thought erged, and with it the answer beca clear.
His Special Ability seed to follow the self, still effective even under these circumstances.
“Information Fragnt One: The Soul Splitting Spell can separate and segnt one’s own soul, but the segnted Soul Fragnts correspond to specific mories. Once separated, the self will completely lose that part of mory; unless the fragnts are re-fused, the mory cannot be recovered.”
“Information Fragnt Two: An unskilled Soul Splitting Spell is likely to bring severe Pain.”
“Ah~”
Tang Qi did not have ti to ponder what the so-called “Amnesia” ant. The terror and intense pain that erupted as Tang Qi fully plunged the “surgical knife” into his soul was unprecedented.
Amid screams of agony, Tang Qi’s other self remained absolutely rational.
If it was not for “his” clumsy technique, an Observer would mistake this for the work of a seasoned surgeon performing a delicate and astonishing operation.
“Hu”
Amidst howls, a large chunk of Soul Fragnt fell.
Before Tang Qi could experience the loss of those mories, suddenly, as if with a “hiss,” the surgical knife plunged in again.
This ti, it was to segnt the part belonging to Old Morgan.
But no matter which part it was, that razor-sharp knife unavoidably cut into so edges.
Especially as he, in his haste to split another “Tang Qi’s Soul” before the Furnace Mark was cast, made even cruder incisions, inflicting unforgettable traumas on his self.
Within this unknowable Mysterious dinsion, this scene unfolding.
If it were in the outside world, it could entirely pass for a psychopathic Serial Killer’s dismbernt tableau, with Tang Qi’s dissector being none other than Tang Qi himself.
With the cessation of the wails, the Soul Splitting Spell rapidly completed its work.
Although he had just completed a Professional Trial, at this mont Tang Qi was incomparably weakened, struggling to look in front of him.
“Buzz”
This scene was like looking in a mirror.
Only that the quality of the mirror was questionable.
In front of Tang Qi was another “Tang Qi,” with a silhouette nearly identical in contour, yet the facial features and so details were blurry and akin to mosaic fragnts, as if it were a sculpture that had yet to be “face-sculpted.”
But the soul breath was of the Sa Origin.
Tang Qi could feel a wondrous connection with the other soul.
He could control it completely, as if it were another self.
“Boom!”
“Is it coming?”
As Tang Qi marveled at the magic of soul separation, suddenly before his eyes unfolded a series of lter breaths containing certain “Great Power,” gradually outlining a golden Sun, just as when Tang Qi obtained the Molten Furnace ditation Technique Scroll, with its engraved emblem.
Molten Furnace Seal!
An amazing feeling surged forth.
“Submit to the great Master of the Crucible, rge into the great Master of the Crucible, as part of the Crucible share that boundless vast Great Power…”
“Accept!”
Old Morgan seed to have long awaited the chance to beco a “follower,” and instantly released the intent of acceptance.
Almost imdiately, the imprint flew towards Tang Qi.
But it seed completely oblivious to the fact that there were two “Tang Qis” standing one in front of the other, with identical soul breaths. It automatically touched the first rigid, uncustomized soul of Tang Qi, slowly penetrating deep into his soul.
Until the next mont, with a “boom,” infinite light and heat were released.
At the bottom of Tang Qi’s eyes, an Information Fragnt erged.
“The Molten Furnace Seal has recognized its master; this soul has beco the new follower of the Master of the Crucible. If it fuses back with it, the seal will still take effect…”
“It worked,”
With a thought, the first Tang Qi suddenly curled up, turning into a “Soul Ball” with a Sun-like seal wrapped inside, which automatically flew into Tang Qi’s mouth.
He did not re-fuse, but rather, withstanding the pain, he separated a strand of Soul Power and wrapped it inside the soul body.
“Now, it’s ti to harvest.”
The incredibly weak Tang Qi revealed the most brilliant smile.
Then, his entire figure staggered forward, yet with a sort of unstoppable montum, he threw himself into the deepest part of the crucible.
Boom!
In the Molten Universe, where countless “Ember Suns” floated in the vast void, one of the suns close to extinction suddenly exploded, its golden light flas like a storm, expanding and raging without restraint, and a brand new, revitalized sun erged.
…
Library Tower, fourth floor, inside the tranquil ditation Room.
Tang Qi, sitting cross-legged on the ground, his eyes which had been tightly closed, suddenly trembled at this mont, and his eyelids slowly opened.
The unprecedented weakness, along with the confusion of losing a massive amount of mories, surfaced simultaneously.
However, it was only for an instant. Accompanied by a “rumble,” a great commotion was born within his body.
The change began from the first strand of lting Furnace Power returning to his body.
The original lting Furnace Power was like a golden version of Holy Light, but it lacked the extre sanctity of Holy Light.
But at this mont, they transmuted.
Everything Tang Qi felt within the “Ember Sun” had now beco real.
Like golden magma, the lting Furnace Power surged within Tang Qi’s body, transforming everything in its path—his flesh, organs, marrow… even down to his skin and hair. The golden flas completely ignited Tang Qi.
Yet he did not feel the slightest bit out of control; on the contrary, what he felt from within his body was exceptionally good.
The genuine, or rather “premium version” of lting Furnace Power, was transforming him.
“Harvest ti!”
At this mont, Tang Qi was just like the “Sun God” of legends.
In his opened eyes, even the mysterious sights involving the essence and rules were reflected, even if that flash of an image was fleeting. But Tang Qi saw it—the world was undergoing trendous change, an aura corresponding with the “Mysterious” was perating the entire Origin Blue Star.
Like a vast tide, it enshrouded the world with an unstoppable montum.
“Spiritual Tide?”
This was the first ti Tang Qi caught a glimpse of the key to the revival of the Mysterious Side: the returning Spiritual Tide.
Even though it was a brief glance, after that one look.
An epiphany dawned in Tang Qi’s heart.
Even though there were so similarities, Origin Blue Star was entirely different from the Earth he lived on in his previous life.
Here, despite a hundred-year “Silent Period.”
In fact, the Mystery had never been separated from Blue Star. Those Divines, Exotic Realms, bizarre universes, unknowable biological entities… They seed to have always surrounded Origin Blue Star, and the return of the Spiritual Tide was like opening so sealed portals one by one.
No one could predict, once the Spiritual Tide reached its zenith, whether Origin Blue Star would return to the Dark Age, the age of ignorance, or even an epoch far more ancient.
Ti is even more of the essence now.
With this thought flashing through his mind, Tang Qi felt a strong sense of crisis.
He reined in his thoughts, returning his consciousness to himself.
And at this mont, feedback erged from within his body.
The transformation was complete!
Tang Qi felt his own power in an instant, as well as a strong sense of weakness.
The forr ca from his body, the latter from… his soul.
He focused his gaze on himself, where a special image slowly ford.
Ignoring the unchanged information, Tang Qi’s eyes imdiately fixed on the Skill Bar.
Skills:
[Golden Furnace ditation: An unimaginably ancient ditation thod that can grant you strength beyond your wildest dreams; Realm: Profession; Progress: 0%.]
[Molten Furnace Eye: A derivative Skill, activated in the eyes, with effects: Judgent, Red; Realm: Profession; Progress: 0%.]
Seeing the reset progress of the ditation thod and Molten Furnace Eye, Tang Qi was not surprised, and his gaze imdiately shifted to the newly appeared section.
Profession!
There, only a solitary na appeared.
“lter Wizard!”
“I’ve stepped into the Professional Level.”
Feeling the new power within him, Tang Qi’s lips curved into a smile, then said.
