1212. Be my apprentice! (below)

"You turned my mother into an immortal monster!!" Anakin yelled angrily.

"Who told you that your mother is a monster?" Tang Xiao looked at him sideways, "Do you actually want to treat your mother as a monster?"

"I don't want to be glib with you!! I want you to pay for it!!" Anakin yelled.

"Want to fight?" Tang Xiao sneered, "Although I don't mind crushing you to death with one finger, it's still not good to do it in front of your mother. I'm not like you, who can even call your own mother a monster."

"Compared to a life, my mother is now more like a corpse! A moving corpse!! How dare you desecrate my mother's corpse like this!!" Anakin yelled angrily.

"She is dead, so I need a container to hold her soul." Tang Xiao said lightly, "So you are right, your mother's body is indeed dead."

"What did you say?" Anakin was stunned.

An unpredictable smile appeared on the corner of Tang Xiao's mouth, "I want to say that your mother is indeed not dead. My Resurrection Spell was not perfect at the time, but at least it preserved her soul and kept her soul in that dead body. However, because she had been dead for more than an hour before, her brain suffered irreversible hypoxic damage and lost many memories. I must admit this."

"You..." Anakin's brain couldn't digest what Tang Xiao said.

Tang Xiao said, "Then let me tell you more straightforwardly. The so-called Resurrection Spell is just a saying in myths and legends. And for us Sith, this is just a part of Sith magic. And what I am currently researching The research is Essence Transfer. The so-called Essence Transfer is the technology of transferring a person's soul and the Force to another body. Through this technology, people can realize... another form of Immortality."

"So, I couldn't really resurrect your mother at that time, but I kept her soul. So, as long as I can complete Essence Transfer, then I can transfer her soul to a new body. At that time, your mother will be truly resurrected."

After Tang Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Anakin-Skywalker, waiting for his reaction.

Anakin-Skywalker was really stunned. He imagined countless possibilities, but he didn't expect that this Archangel of Death actually admitted it openly and carefully explained the principle of resurrecting his mother!

Sith Lord When did you become so talkative? Or is it that Tang Xiao is not Archangel of Death at all?

He thought for a moment, his face darkened, and he said, "You mean, my mother is really not dead yet?"

"Yes, her current condition is only because her body is dead. Her soul can no longer control this body, so she is in the current situation. Just complete Essence Transfer and transfer her soul to the new body, and then everything will return to normal." Tang Xiao said with a smile, looking amiable.

But he was talking nonsense.

Essence Transfer and Resurrection Spell are basically two unrelated things. He just bullied Anakin into not understanding Sith magic, so he confused the two to get through.

But in fact, when he resurrected Shmi-Skywalker, his Resurrection Spell was not perfect. Basically, he resurrected Shmi-Skywalker into a walking zombie. There is no saying that everything will be restored after completing Essence Transfer.

Give an ordinary person Essence Transfer and he can do it now. All the elite pilots from Fourth Civilization have joined Rebirth Plan. This is the use of Essence Transfer.

But based on the current situation of Shmi-Skywalker, even if Essence Transfer is really used, the transfer will still be so confusing. If her current condition is that of a zombie, then after using Essence Transfer, she will at most become a fresh zombie, nothing more.

"You... how could you do such a thing? Sith Lord should just be interested in destruction and destruction." Anakin-Skywalker still couldn't believe it.

"Ah, I have to mention my master, Das-Pregas." Tang Xiao smiled and said something to the side. Soon, someone sent over a shaved white mouse.

While Tang Xiao was using the Force to immobilize the mouse, he picked up a scalpel and cut a deep wound on it. He continued, "My master, he is constantly studying and practicing the essence of life. He can even use the Force to heal wounds, and even... create life."

As he spoke, he raised his hand and scratched the mouse's body. Life Force was immediately filled with its wounds, and he saw that this fatal wound was slowly healing!

Just over ten seconds passed, and the little white mouse that had just been cut with a wound that penetrated deep into its internal organs actually started jumping around again!

"And I, after inheriting his research, can naturally do these basic things." Tang Xiao continued, "Ah, by the way, my master has another apprentice. If anyone tells you about Life Force, it is most likely him."

He quietly dug a hole for Darth-Sidious.

Then, he added, "As for you saying that Sith only knows destruction and destruction, this is actually true. But for life, this is not the case... because the other side of life is death."

He raised his hand and pointed, and the body of the white mouse instantly withered away, and all the flesh and skin instantly turned into dust, leaving only a rotten skeleton, which was still moving!

Tang Xiao raised his eyes and looked at Anakin, his smile getting colder and colder, "Life and death are two sides of the same coin. Who told you that life can only be light? As far as life and death are concerned, all living beings are... equal..."

Then, he used Life Force again, only to see a layer of flesh and blood begin to grow on the skeleton of the white mouse!

But after only a few seconds, the skeleton that had grown a little flesh suddenly fell apart, and then there was no response at all.

Tang Xiao shook his head and said, "Look, I can only do this one step now. I still have a long way to go before life and death can truly become one and the same."

"Then what is your purpose in resurrecting my mother?" Anakin-Skywalker said, "I don't believe you are just for so-called compassion!"

"Because in a sense, my master Das-Pregas, you should at least call him... well, adoptive father." Tang Xiao said.

"Are you asking me to consider a thief as my father?! Stupid! And despicable!" Anakin said angrily.

"This is related to an incident about 22 years ago... However, I can't tell you more things now." Tang Xiao began to make up his mind.

"What do you want?!" Anakin said.

Tang Xiao smiled slightly and said, "I need your help, Anakin-Skywalker. You are far from realizing how powerful your potential is. You are far from realizing that in this galaxy, no one's talent can compare with yours, including me."

He stretched out his hand to Anakin, "Come on, become my disciple! I will take you to explore the mysteries of life! To conquer life! By then, there will be no more sadness and separation..."
