Second Body, Soul-Splitting Method

Of course, the bigger issue was not this matter, but something else.

The first was the problem with his Fallen Angel martial soul.

Once powerful figures like Mu En, Xuan Zi, and Yan Shaozhe thoroughly investigated his condition, there was no way he could hide the fact that he possessed twin martial souls.

And once that matter was exposed, it would bring enormous danger to his life and might even lead to an accident befalling him.

That was not something Li Qingming wanted to see, so he had prepared a backup plan as well.

Li Qingming stood there, his gaze calm.

As he raised his hand, an immense power surged around him.

At his side, Qian Renxue's remnant soul and the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger appeared together.

Facing the confusion in the two soul spirits' eyes, Li Qingming slightly raised both hands.

Immense power surged from his body once more, while his two martial souls appeared in his left and right hands almost simultaneously.

As the power of the two martial souls began to shift, Li Qingming's expression brightened slightly.

An even stronger force gathered in his hands, while his body trembled faintly.

As he raised his hand, the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger seemed to understand Li Qingming's intentions.

He let out a somewhat helpless sigh.

"You really are ruthless, kid. To avoid being discovered, you actually dare pull something like this. Fine. Since you've made up your mind, I'll fulfill your wish."

As the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger spoke, his eyes flickered.

He had fused his soul with Li Qingming's original body, so his own physical body naturally still remained.

However, after ten thousand years of being frozen—or rather, through his own deliberate actions—his body had completely transformed into pure power at its source.

Now, as that power was fully drawn out.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's eyes held a trace of heartache, but he did not go back on his word in the end.

As that power gathered, Li Qingming's vast sea of spirit began to gradually divide.

One half shone with holy light, reflecting pure radiance and filled with a sacred, brilliant aura.

The other half was filled with an eerie, dark power.

One was bright and clear, its seabed visible at a glance, while the other resembled an abyssal demonic pool. The two were distinctly separated.

Looking at the two completely divided seas of spirit, Li Qingming sat down cross-legged.

A complete image of Li Qingming appeared above his body.

The youth's body began to split in two, until it became two entirely different people.

This was not some special soul-splitting technique, nor did Li Qingming possess the ability to divide his soul in two.

Rather, he used a special method to forcibly separate the two martial souls.

The two god-tier martial souls could merge within his body, so naturally, they could also split apart.

Now that the Fallen Angel martial soul had been exposed, rather than letting it become a threat to him, it was better to strip it away completely.

As the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's power gathered, a figure who resembled Li Qingming by about fifty percent appeared.

This young man was not quite as handsome. He had black eyes and long black hair.

His gaze was gloomy to the extreme, yet there was not the slightest hint of lifelessness between his brows.

As this body fully condensed.

The Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's divine soul was the first to rush into it, followed closely by the Fallen Angel martial soul.

Behind the black-haired youth, three terrifying pairs of wings spread open, their deep, fallen luster flickering.

On the other side, as the youth opened his eyes, his gaze turned toward Li Qingming.

Li Qingming looked back at him.

Both of them were Li Qingming, and both possessed a portion of Li Qingming's consciousness.

There was no distinction between clone and original body, because both were Li Qingming's original bodies.

However, there was indeed a certain difference between them.

Li Qingming's primary consciousness remained within the angel body.

Meanwhile, terrifying spatial power surged within the other body, which vanished from the spot.

Li Qingming had actually prepared for the creation of this second body long ago.

Naturally, he had no intention of putting all his eggs in one basket.

He himself would remain at Shrek Academy to study, while the other body would head to the Sun Moon Empire and join Sun Moon Imperial Academy.

That place naturally could not compare to Shrek Academy in this era, but it had one advantage—it was equivalent to an extra safeguard.

If one of his identities was completely exposed or died, he could simply fuse the two bodies together again and reappear elsewhere under the other identity.

Moreover, the two bodies could cooperate with each other and seek the opportunity to become gods together.

Thinking of this, Li Qingming sighed.

He sat cross-legged and recovered briefly before quickly rising to his feet and returning to Shrek Academy.

There was no need to ask—Shrek Academy had definitely erupted by now.

And as long as Zhou Yi saw those enormous black wings, he would certainly be the first person suspected.

Li Qingming knew this himself. It was unavoidable.

All he could do was resolve the matter as quickly as possible.

Meanwhile, at Shrek Academy, Mu En sat within Sea God's Pavilion.

Pure light energy flowed from his body into Zhou Yi's, beginning to eliminate the Judgment Angel's power of judgment within her.

This judgment power was not strong, but after entering Zhou Yi's body, it made her body tremble faintly.

Watching this, Mu En's eyes flickered.

"Very powerful. This power is even stronger than I imagined. Moreover, it contains a trace of source power—perhaps a clue we have yet to discover."

Mu En paused here. Just as Yan Shaozhe and the others grew tense, he slowly continued.

"Unfortunately, the level of this power is ultimately too low. Its strength is roughly around the four-ring to five-ring level. Power at this level is ultimately of little use to me."

Mu En waved his hand, and powerful energy surged forth.

Pure light power instantly purified all the judgment power on Zhou Yi's body.

However, Mu En's expression did not look good. He had used more than four or five times the power to purify it completely.

One had to know that the Light Holy Dragon martial soul was also one of the world's most top-tier martial souls.

For it to require more than five times his power, the strength of that martial soul absolutely far surpassed that of an ordinary god-tier martial soul.

He did not even know what concept to use to describe that martial soul.

Yet he did not mention this matter.

Time passed second by second as the two quietly kept watch there.

After roughly twenty minutes, Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu arrived as well.

Seeing his wife so seriously injured, Fan Yu hurried over.

Only after seeing that Zhou Yi was unharmed did he finally let out a long breath.

Then, the few of them remained there and waited.

However, Mu En had already left.

As the master of Sea God's Pavilion, he still had many matters to deal with. Coupled with his age and need for rest, only the three of them were left behind to wait.

Time passed second by second until another half hour or so had gone by.

Only then did Zhou Yi's fingers twitch lightly, and her eyes slowly opened in a daze.

Her eyes were filled with confusion.

Seeing his wife awaken, Fan Yu immediately lunged toward her.

A flash of fear passed through Zhou Yi's eyes.

But when she opened her eyes and saw her husband, the fear in them faded. She then let out a long breath.
