"Ah... It should be fine now, it should be..."
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl cautiously withdrew her fair hands, carefully scrutinizing the spiritual body before her. Her expression still sowhat flustered, she surveyed the end product she had clumsily pieced back together and whispered with a hint of guilt.
Gu Mo: "..."
The once fragnted spiritual body had indeed regained stability.
At least it no longer looked like a leaking balloon about to exhaust all its spiritual power reserves rapidly. However, even though the girl's power was sowhat hard to fathom, it's clear this could only count as a tily rescue.
Moreover, probably due to being excessively flustered, her repair actions just now were indeed sowhat...
In short, it's hard to describe.
She completely relied on that unimaginable power, pressing clay-like pieces onto visible cracks. The whole process was as tense as kneading dough, managing to smooth out the cracks in the spiritual structure and successfully repair the outer layer...
But—
If it were a balloon, then the salvaged product now...
Looked dirty and gray...
With "transparent tape" pasted over every damaged and cracked spot...
—In other words, the entire "balloon" now had a battered aesthetic, with a subtle comical feel, leaving him unsure of what to say. In such a situation, it might have been better to just let it explode.
"..."
"..."
The air fell silent for a while.
The girl's gaze wavered, moonlight falling upon her delicate face, clearly showing her awkward blush: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I really didn't pay attention just now, I was lost in thought and didn't expect anyone to be here..."
"It's alright..."
Gu Mo gathered his thoughts. Although the initial start was very smooth overall, not everything was. Several divine thought projections had already been lost. This kind of situation was expected and he was ntally prepared for it; accidents are unavoidable.
Moreover, the current situation, while not terrible, was slightly peculiar.
He was now more interested in the girl's identity. That transcendental power of creation—he had recently been dabbling in a similar domain of creation and vaguely sensed a sowhat similar power attribute...
Due to the unique situation, the girl directly showcased this power and used it to repair his spiritual body—
Hence, he could perceive it directly.
"Is it really alright?" The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl cautiously looked at him, carefully observing his current state, "You... you're not a ghost, right? You probably aren't an ordinary person's soul either? But it seems like your soul body is sowhat incomplete, though it's much more stable than a human's..."
"..."
"..."
"Naturally not. I am rely a divine thought projection, a re notion manifesting here. So there's no need to worry, it doesn't matter much to ..."
Gu Mo wasn't surprised that she could perceive so of his situation. Musing briefly, he chose to be honest.
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl apparently had a significant background, and her abilities were imasurable. Thus, it was hard to conceal his true situation before her, so he chose to be more candid. From her previous behavior, it seed she had no ill intentions, so he decided to adjust his current negotiation strategy.
At worst, he'd view this as a Holy Grail War (task) failure—
The servant projection would exit the current ti-space (dungeon world), with the information returning to his original self on the Heroic Spirit Throne (real dinsion).
"Oh? Divine thought projection... does that an this isn't your true self?"
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl examined him with intrigue, blinking her bright gemstone-like eyes, seeming to relax a bit: "That explains it... But from what it sounds, you're an Eastern Immortal, right? I believe only that side says it like this."
Eastern Immortal...
This world, indeed, had such a system.
Gu Mo quietly noted this clue. The demon qi felt earlier in the flower field, encountering the silver-haired girl now, and hearing about Eastern Immortals—he roughly understood the backdrop of this world, though more clues needed collecting.
"Eastern Immortal, if taken literally, that could be, but my situation is sowhat unique. So it's not inaccurate..."
He thought while responding.
—This was not a lie.
—He indeed was an Immortal, indeed from the East, and his situation was indeed unique.
After all, being an Immortal from another world, everything was true, except the fundantal premise was wrong. However, she hadn't asked that, and he did ntion it was from a literal standpoint and hinted at his unique situation... Yes, precisely, it's not a lie.
"Oh, so that's how it is..."
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl nodded slightly. It was unclear if she understood or simply imagined sothing herself, but she seed disinclined to continue questioning.
Her expression seed to carry a hint of embarrassnt as she carefully observed the spiritual body before her, seriously inquiring, "I'm really sorry... Did you separate this spiritual power to do sothing? Did I just ss up your plans?"
"It's really nothing..."
Gu Mo wanted to shake his head to show that he didn't mind, but realized he couldn't perform that action now. Simultaneously, he suddenly thought this girl had just demonstrated a power of creation, which was precisely the assistance he needed at the mont.
Perhaps this world seed to have an unfavorable start, but in reality, could it be progressing faster than expected?
emmmmm...
Apart from projecting the body of an ordinary person in so world and having already successfully boarded an alien spaceship, leaving Earth to head for an unknown star system...
Gu Mo pondered, gazing at the silver-haired, silver-eyed girl before him. Although he lacked the usual sensory perception of the eyes, his spiritual power simulation for regular sensing had no issues. The girl on the opposite side also seed aware, showing a bit of unease under his gaze.
Of course, it was the feeling of guilt and unease of a perpetrator facing the victim's gaze, feeling silently accused...
Especially upon discovering that the other party's true form was an immortal on the other side, she unconsciously elevated the importance level of this accidental incident. After all, they're from the sa world, and they're likely to interact in the future, with relatively equal status, naturally warranting more attention.
"Could I ask you for a favor? In my current situation, I probably can't complete certain tasks according to the original plan."
After thinking it over a little, Gu Mo straightforwardly chose to speak frankly. There was no need for unnecessary pretense at this mont. Honesty was the best choice.
"What... what can I do to help you?"
The girl was slightly stunned.
"Before talking about that, may I ask your na? Where is your immortal realm, beautiful fairy?" Gu Mo smiled as he opened his mouth to ask.
"Is this... are you asking for my na?"
The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl blinked, seemingly needing a mont to understand the aning behind the formal phrasing.
For so reason, she almost instantly showed a look of great interest, her pure eyes revealing a kind of joyous excitent as if about to shine. Happily and eagerly, with a childlike loudness, she said, "My... my na is Shenqi!"
"..."
"..."
"...Shenqi?"
Gu Mo paused, seemingly reflecting on sothing.
"How is it? It's a nice na, right? I thought about it for a long ti..." The silver-haired, silver-eyed girl clasped her hands behind her, taking small steps in mid-air, swaying her body slightly to both sides in a mini-circle. Her tone exceptionally cheerful as she said, "But I've thought of it for many years, and you are the first one to ask for my na!"
It seed she had a reason to be very happy.
She didn't know when the desire for a na started, but she had worried about it for a long ti. Finally, when she painstakingly thought of a na for herself, it went unused for years, leaving her sowhat disappointed and dejected.
Until now, soone finally asked her na!!
The girl's mood suddenly lifted.
......
...
A dark, sunless world...
A lifeless world...
A chaotic world...
Shenqi, with Gu Mo's divine thought split, directly traversed space, arriving at a very peculiar place. The latter could only feel slight pangs of ntal discomfort in his spiritual perception, forcing him to retract all external spiritual power to avoid further harm to his divine will.
"Is this... where you live, Miss Shenqi?"
Speaking in a tone of inexplicable curiosity, Gu Mo tried to observe the external environnt as much as possible in the limited form of perception, unable to help feeling a bit of a headache.
This dark space resembled the purgatory space of the eve of creation, completely devoid of life.
The atmosphere was thin, or there wasn't a typical atmosphere at all, just a vast space shrouded in unknown red-black mist. In so places, lava visibly surged across the surface, hot as a fla prison, while in others, sparse snowflakes danced with the wind, with the extrely low temperature covering the ground with a thick ice layer...
In so areas, heavy cloud mists hung like lead, accompanied by apocalyptic thunder, exuding a foreboding sign...
Other regions seed to have large wounds in space for unknown reasons, releasing high-frequency pulses at unimaginable rates from the other side, with violent electronic flow storms raging...
So—
This girl actually lives in such a place?
"Yes... It's nice, right!" Shenqi nodded repeatedly, seemingly seeing no issue with it, "I put in a lot of effort to carve this out. Although there's nothing here now, I'll strive to create a world I've ticulously envisioned!"
