"Assuming there are a thousand Outer City districts, and each district has an average of three thousand Soul Eater patients, then there are three million victims!"
Li Zheng recalled the scene when Kuimi was murdered: "And during this process, not everyone’s spiritual body can be successfully extracted, those who fail may be killed on the spot."
So the actual number of people who died due to the extraction of spiritual bodies far exceeds three million!
Mirel looked at the five pieces of obsidian, carefully felt them, and said: "The strength of these five obsidian pieces is not equal, but increases from weak to strong, indicating that the strength of the prey chosen was gradually enhanced."
"They want to catch you, could it be that they want to extract your spiritual body and make you into sothing like this?"
"It’s highly possible." Li Zheng frowned and said, "The strongest one among these obsidian pieces should have just begun to absorb a quasi-Purple Level magic crystal, the ape-man’s spiritual power is approximately equivalent to five node points in strength, but the foundation is much weaker."
In this way, Mirel, with only two spiritual power nodes, can slightly affect the ape-man, which makes sense.
"The one who wants my spiritual power should be the Celestial Will Organization leader suspected to be a clone like . With his strength, there may no longer be a suitable ’container’ for him to continue growing stronger."
Li Zheng suddenly realized sothing was wrong: "Strange, where exactly did they get my whereabouts, and how did they know the strength of my spiritual power?"
Even if it’s using my genes to identify so information, but... how did the other party pinpoint ?
Mirel guessed: "Could it be soone from the Outer City who sold you out?"
"Outer City..." Li Zheng’s heart sank abruptly. If soone from the Outer City could betray him, the terminal is undoubtedly the most suspicious.
"Also." Mirel continued: "Before, when you were in the Fourth Sin Domain, wearing disguise clothing, you inadvertently attracted the ire of the Celestial Will Organization mbers. At that ti, I thought it was just because you disrupted their plan to obtain twisted magic crystals."
"Hmm." Li Zheng looked at her, not understanding why she brought this up now.
"Do you rember the last thing the ape-man said to you?" Mirel said: "He said Nato secretly gave him money to kill you and take you back afterwards. Don’t you find it strange? How did Nato know you were the person in the Fourth Sin Domain?"
That’s right!
Unless Nato knew my identity from the start, how else would he give the ape-man crystal coins to kill ?
But...
This way, there are unreasonable points again.
If the Celestial Will Organization leader wants my spiritual body to make a container, and the ape-man really kills and takes back, then the leader...
Unless the leader didn’t tell the ape-man the real purpose of taking back!
Li Zheng tried to recall the events of this ti, starting from entering the Fourth Sin Domain for the first ti, slowly connecting it to the attack by the ape-man.
"I understand now..."
Five minutes later, Li Zheng sorted out everything, took a deep breath, and said: "So the mont I went to the Fourth Sin Domain, I was already being watched. Later in the gathering area, the Shadow Controller who created the infected body might have also been targeting , because in such an environnt, they couldn’t confirm my identity."
And I easily dealt with two infected bodies, leaving no traces.
Such strength revealed my identity.
Then in the Golden Light Zone, Nato kept targeting inexplicably, obviously with a preditated purpose.
After all, in such a place as the Sin Domain, without a hundred percent certainty of killing soone without leaving traces, offending a stranger is absolutely unwise.
Later, when I went out to face the beast tide, they saw my combat ability and thought it was nothing special, then acted on afterwards.
Unfortunately, they failed to expect that soone dared to stand up for others in the Sin Domain and co to help .
Later, when I went with Mo Li to the Three Races base, the other side should also have known.
But with the Three Races present, I had too much help, and the risk of coming for was too high, so no one made a move.
Then ca today’s ape-man attack.
"Li Zheng, could it be Xu helping the Celestial Will Organization to locate you?" Mirel again offered a guess: "The terminal has no reason or need to sell you out. If it’s replaced with Xu, it makes sense."
"Xu..."
Li Zheng’s heart trembled: "Indeed, all his spiritual power is with . After escaping from the Dark Realm, his strength weakened greatly. Maybe he’s not my opponent if he ca directly, so he had to find soone else to help."
Moreover, my powerful spiritual power was originally Xu’s, so he can locate more precisely and conveniently than the terminal selling out.
"Hmm." Mirel suddenly shook, her body dimd significantly: "I can’t hold on, I’ll head out first."
"Alright."
Li Zheng watched her exit the ape-man’s spiritual world, while he attempted to remove the five obsidian pieces from the ape-man.
Reaching into the lava, before touching it, the five obsidian pieces voluntarily adhered to his hand.
A noisy sound suddenly fluttered past his ear, unclear, but Li Zheng knew the source was those five pieces of obsidian.
He brought the obsidian into close proximity of his face and found each piece imprisoned a small, varying figure within.
Their races and appearances varied greatly, but they shared a commonality; each bore an expression of extre agony, seemingly enduring inhuman torture constantly.
"Your consciousness is still alive?" Li Zheng tried to communicate with the small figures, but they ignored his question, maintaining their pained expressions.
Li Zheng attempted to inject spiritual power into them, but as soon as he did, the figures appeared more tornted, and their bodies flickered, ready to dissipate anyti.
He promptly ceased his actions, retracted his spiritual power, and the figures returned to their original state.
With these five obsidian stones obtained, the place held no further value for him.
Exiting the ape-man’s spiritual world, Li Zheng opened his eyes to look at his own hands, finding nothing there.
"Have they followed my spiritual power into my spiritual world?"
Li Zheng felt a change within a certain part of his mind, confirming that the five obsidian stones were indeed with him, but not in his spiritual world, they were kept outside.
"... My spiritual world is too crowded, unable to accommodate anything more. I’ll send them into the Dark Realm, and once I find sothing out, I’ll try again to release them if possible."
Li Zheng sent the five obsidian stones into the Dark Realm, to the part of his spiritual body seated beneath the Bodhi Tree.
Who’d have thought that at this mont, a sudden change occurred!
