Bao Liang Died

Bao Liang felt a little embarrassed by what was said, but then he thought, wait a minute, there are two dragons living in my Spiritual Sea of Consciousness, how could there be a problem? Especially not the ruins that Electrolux mentioned?

As if guessing what Bao Liang wanted to ask, Electrolux spoke up, his tone tinged with helplessness, "You brat, are you trying to ask me why I still describe you this way when those two little dragons clearly reside in your Spiritual Sea of Consciousness?"

"Mmm-hmm!"

"Ha, those two little dragons are more like living in the External Soul Bone of your right eye than in your Spiritual Sea of Consciousness."

"After that, you acquired a head External Soul Bone and a left eye External Soul Bone. The three External Soul Bone were combined into one, which finally gave the two of them and this old man a place that could be called a dwelling."

"However..." Electrolux hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking, "Boy, do you dare let this old man possess you and examine you thoroughly?"

"Your situation is too special. Although I have woken up many times over the years, it has never been for a long time. I am not sure about your situation in a short time."

Bao Liang breathed a sigh of relief. "Oh, is that all? You can handle it, sir. Professional matters should be handled by professionals." After saying that, Bao Liang cleared his mind, offered no resistance, and eagerly pulled out the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife just in case.

"By the way, Elder Yi, this should be useful for repairing your divine sense, right? What do you think...?"

Through his Sea of Consciousness, Electrolux glanced at the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife, its true nature obscured by the curse, and shook his head with a wry smile. "What a waste! You can sense the immense life force within the Gold of Life, yet you don't know how to utilize it, so you resort to this method to barely unleash a fraction of its properties?"

"But you've got some unique ideas, finding a different way to try and remove the curse from it."

"Very well, it has indeed been of great help to me. With the Gold of Life, my wisp of divine consciousness will no longer be in danger of dissipating. Not only me, but it will also have a tremendous effect on you, allowing you to undergo a complete transformation."

"Maybe I can even help you get rid of this troublesome body of yours."

"Elder Yi, please do it!" Bao Liang nodded.

Electrolux couldn't help but exclaim, "You really don't put up with me at all, kid."

"Fine, since you trust me, I won't ask how you knew about my existence."

"If you have anything to say in the future, I am all ears."

"Now, I'll borrow your body for a bit."

The next second, a gray current of energy began to spread from Sea of Consciousness, gradually taking over Bao Liang body and turning his crimson and silver eyes into a lifeless gray.

"I am the Holy Necromancer, Electrolux. You may continue to call me Elder Yi..."

But the moment Electrolux took over Bao Liang's body, Electrolux was completely stunned.

"No? How did you die, you brat?"

"Huh?" Bao Liang was dumbfounded. "Not Elder Yi? What do you mean I'm dead? Aren't I alive and well?"

Electrolux snapped out of his daze, "Don't mess around with numbers, let me take a closer look..."

It would have been better if they hadn't investigated; once they did, Electrolux was even more bewildered.

"No? How did you die and come back to life? Half-dead? No, that doesn't make sense... In your condition, you're more like a living dead than a living dead. Calling you half-dead is an understatement. If something goes wrong and you lose some vital energy, you'll really be dead here."

"The undead in my Undead Demiplane are more like 'living beings' than you."

Bao Liang was now truly trembling with fear. It was a rare sight to see the former Child of Light, the Necromantic Calamity, and the Holy Necromancer describe someone in such a way, even just two years ago.

"Old man... Elder Yi, do you think I still have a chance to live... no, I mean, is there still hope for me to live?"

"Wait a minute, let this old man take another look... Hey, why is your body covered by some external force? What's with not letting people see it? Who gave you this rough thing?"

Electrolux was completely bewildered.

"Your grandpa? No, your grandpa didn't have the skill. The person who made this thing was terrible; it was all brute force... Alright, get started! Let this old man take a look..."

"..."

"Hiss--!"

Electrolux hesitated, leaving Bao Liang feeling increasingly uneasy.

"Elder Yi, please tell me, I can accept any amount of time I have left to live."

"That's not quite right. Anyway, your Fourth Soul Skill means you won't live past twenty-five. That being may not have the best technique, but he's still strong enough to keep you Immortality."

"But..." Electrolux paused, "Child, how much of your past life do you remember?"

"A past life?" Bao Liang asked, puzzled. "Elder Yi, you already know I have a past life, so why don't you just look at my memories?"

"... I asked because I saw it. To be precise, your memory lacks the defensive protection a living being should have. Although I forced myself not to look, I still saw some things." Electrolux hesitated again, "So, child, how much of those twelve years in your past life do you remember?"

Bao Liang thought for a moment, "I remember most of it, except for things from too long ago that I don't remember, I think that's all."

"... So, do you remember how you died?"

Electrolux's words left Bao Liang speechless for Jiujiu time before he finally uttered, "I don't know..."

"I don't know how I died. I only remember that I seemed to be in a lot of pain before I died."

"... You don't remember how you died, but judging from your soul and body... you died of blood loss, and you lost your heart and head after death. Therefore, your Spiritual Sea of Consciousness is shattered, and your innate qi and blood are depleted. The lack of these two things is also the reason why you were able to obtain External Soul Bone for these two parts so easily."

"Furthermore, I just reviewed your memories and discovered that the thing blocking your information seems to be related to that child named Huo Yuhao... It must have been created for you by the Plane Consciousness of that dimension for some reason."

As for the reason... I have no idea.

"It's a good thing you don't like to use your brain, otherwise you'd be getting fevers and headaches every day." Electrolux finished speaking, giving Bao Liang some time to process what he had to say.

Bao Liang was silent for a moment, then asked, "Elder Yi, are you sure that thing on me is related to Huo Yuhao?"

Electrolux affirmed, "I still have that much insight."

Thinking of this, Bao Liang immediately thought of Plane Consciousness.

After all, besides Tang San, Huo Yuhao's only connection to others is the Plane Consciousness, and the original purpose of this thing was clearly to help him block the detection of certain beings.

The fact that he had been found by the Destruction God King and even subjected to Divine Trial already indicated that the thing on his body definitely had nothing to do with Tang San.

Since it has nothing to do with Tang San, there is only one answer— the Plane Consciousness has already noticed him, and this thing on his body is what the Plane Consciousness used to guard against Tang San.

But that's not right.

Since I've attracted special attention from the Plane Consciousness, I should be considered a chosen one, right? How come I've entered and exited the Star Dou Great Forest so many times without ever encountering the Three-Eyed Golden Lion?

"Ahem... Elder Yi, let me tell you the whole story!"

"And so on and so forth..."

Bao Liang told Electrolux the whole Peerless Tang Sect in detail, and as a result, Electrolux... was furious.

"Outrageous! Outrageous!"

"Does Tang San even deserve to be called a parent?! He used such brutal methods to split his daughter's soul in two and stuff it into the body of a Auspicious Beast of Fortune! What kind of parents are these?! Even if it's Auspicious Beast of Fortune, it's still a beast! How can a human soul and a beast's body be compatible?"

"This is absolutely outrageous!"
