Bowente's Hidden Hand

This was the fire-aspected liver of an Elven Magister. The instant it was removed, the invaders curled around the soul's light specks vanished along with it in an eerie fashion.

Such an abrupt change astonished Li Ziran. It was as if he had discovered a novel toy. This was the first time he had concretely witnessed the connection between the soul and the organs.

The Time Ghost before him was slowly expanding his understanding of souls.

His guess had been correct. The soul was the operating code of the organs themselves. Every organ necessarily had its own unique manifestation within the soul, though that might not be absolute.

The soul ought to have a core of its own, just as the heart and brain were the operational cores of the body's organs. The heart controlled blood energy, while the brain governed the nerves. There should be similar core structures within the soul.

This light speck before him was merely an edge fragment of the vast soul system.

Perhaps if he transplanted another organ, a new cluster of light would reappear within his soul.

Through the soul, it was entirely possible to assess whether different organs matched within the same system.

Li Ziran was in no hurry. These fellows so eager to seize his body had given him the best opportunity to observe a soul. Their unreserved method of possession was rather crude, but it was precisely such crude changes that suited the rookie-level Li Ziran.

The light specks swam through the soul. Having lost one stronghold, they returned to their former adorable appearance, drifting slowly through the soul of the Double Helix as they sought their next target.

After floating for a long while, they finally began gathering around a rotating cluster of light. This was a special oval halo.
