The glasses man whom the woman called Brother Wen put on a performance, battling an invisible enemy in front of Jiang Qiao.
Even after opening his Dual Pupils to their fullest, Jiang Qiao could not see what he was fighting. But it was obvious that the glasses man was taking the battle seriously and putting all his strength into it. His expression was even rather grave.
Clearly, he had run into trouble.
"Supernatural attacks that invade the consciousness are the most troublesome. Ordinary methods can't expel them at all. If you're not careful, you might even kill the victim." Jiang Qiao also found it somewhat tricky.
After reaching the Sixth Tier, one could survive for a long time by relying on supernatural power even after the Physical Body died.
Therefore, to settle a battle with a single decisive blow, one had to use methods that could kill the consciousness.
That was why, starting from the Sixth Tier,
battles often involved invading and erasing the mind and consciousness.
However,
even if Awakened possessed such methods, most of them were offensive in nature. When facing someone else's attacks, they generally relied on dodging, substitutes, interception, and similar methods to keep the consciousness-invading curse from approaching the body.
Abilities that could expel a curse from the body after it had taken hold were practically unheard of.
Even if such abilities existed, they were merely isolated cases.
They could not be replicated.
If there truly were a universally applicable method of defending against consciousness curses, Evolvers would not need to fear having their consciousness replaced when fusing with Vicious Ghosts, and Awakened would not need to worry about the mental pollution caused by carrying supernatural entities for long periods.
Humanity's use of the supernatural would also enter a new era.
