Soul Surgery, Tang Wutong Awakens
In the end, Wang Dong'er and the others chose to follow Xu Xingyu's advice and let Xiao Wu become Wang Dong'er's Soul Spirit, not only because there was no better way, but also because Xiao Wu's condition was urgent.
After obtaining their consent, Xu Xingyu could only allow them to take Xiao Wu to a secret room in the headquarters of the Spirit Contract Pagoda, where there was a small pool of water moved from the Lake of Life. In such an environment, the success rate of the surgery would increase.
Xu Xingyu hurriedly obtained the promised Soul Gestation Crystal from Electrolux, and after completing all the preparations, she began the soul surgery.
The first step in Xu Xingyu's surgery was to clear the Abyss energy from Xiao Wu's heart.
He placed his hands on Xiao Wu's chest, fully activating the three Soul Core and the Chaos Core of her heart, and drawing upon his Dragon God's Power and Power of Chaos.
Through gradual infiltration and envelopment, the Abyss energy is slowly forced out.
However, this process is not as simple as it seems. Abyss energy is full of Destruction and corrosive properties, and this energy also has its own independent consciousness.
Therefore, it will launch a counterattack when faced with a threat, which is why Xu Xingyu needs to concentrate highly for each infiltration.
Fortunately, he wasn't alone. Lysithea, his Purifying Flame Hong Lian Soul Spirit, was constantly using her own life-giving fire to disinfect and purify the Abyss energy.
The Abyss energy that is forced out will be completely incinerated to prevent it from harming the environment and others.
After the Abyss energy was cleared, Xu Xingyu used the Spirit-Splitting Wood to begin the soul-splitting surgery.
Prior to this, the Spirit-Splitting Wood had been meticulously crafted into the shape of a scalpel. Thanks to the inherent properties of the Spirit-Splitting Wood, this scalpel could precisely cut and process souls.
On Xiao Wu's soul, Xu Xingyu, like a professional doctor, precisely and quickly used the scalpel in his hand to remove the eroded parts, ensuring that there was no more Abyss energy.
Each cut had to be Xu Xingyu with extreme care to avoid causing further damage to Xiao Wu's soul.
The severed soul fragments were quickly incinerated by the flames of the Purifying Flame Hong Lian, thus preventing the residual Abyss within these fragments from being modified and eroding Xiao Wu's soul again.
During this process, Xiao Wu endured the pain of her soul being torn apart, refusing to utter a single cry, for fear of disturbing Xu Xingyu, who was performing the surgery on her.
There's no way around it; there's no such thing as anesthesia to alleviate the patient's pain during surgery on the soul.
The only way to alleviate Xiao Wu's pain is through the Power of Life contained in this pool of life-giving water.
Even so, the pain was unbearable for most people. Seeing her mother's ever-changing expression, Wang Dong'er couldn't help but feel worried.
Although her memories were somewhat hazy, Wang Dong'er had also experienced the pain of her soul being split, so she could fully understand her mother's current pain, and her mother's pain was likely even greater than her own.
However, whenever she tried to comfort her mother, her eldest father Da Ming, would grab her shoulders and shake his head.
As a former God Officer who worked under Tang San, Da Ming had a broad perspective. He knew that this kind of surgery could not be disturbed by anyone, otherwise the patient's soul might be shattered if he was not careful.
To be honest, if it weren't for Wang Dong'er's orders to stay here, he probably would have taken her away long ago so she wouldn't have to see this scene.
About an hour later, Xu Xingyu finally completed the soul-severing process, and all the Abyss energy on Xiao Wu's soul was completely removed.
The next step is to replenish Xiao Wu's missing soul. If Xiao Wu's soul was half of what it was before the surgery, it is now only about two-fifths.
If Xu Xingyu hadn't instructed Xiao Wu to focus her memories on her core Divine Sense beforehand, she might have already begun to show symptoms of memory loss.
To fill these gaps, Xu Xingyu took out the Soul Gestation Crystal provided by Electrolux.
The Soul Gestation Crystal contains abundant and pure soul energy, which can, to a certain extent, replace the removed part of the soul.
However, since this Soul Gestation Crystal is not at the God Level level, it cannot completely replace Xiao Wu's soul. But there is no better way at the moment, so we can only do it this way for now.
Xu Xingyu placed the Soul Gestation Crystal at the gap in Xiao Wu's soul, and then used her own Power of Chaos to fuse with the soul energy in the Soul Gestation Crystal.
The entire process is extremely complex, requiring exceptional control of the soul and meticulous execution.
The Soul Gestation Crystal gradually merged into Xiao Wu's soul, making up for the missing parts and restoring her soul to completeness.
This process went more smoothly than Xu Xingyu had imagined. Perhaps because of the excessive amount of missing Soul Gestation Crystal energy, Xiao Wu's soul began to actively merge with the energy of the Soul Gestation Crystal upon sensing its energy.
The only problem is that Xu Xingyu needs to prevent the Soul Gestation Crystal from being directly devoured by Xiao Wu's soul during this process.
While directly absorbing it can restore a large amount of Soul Power, it will also lose the characteristic of the Soul Gestation Crystal to continuously produce Soul Power.
Therefore, Xu Xingyu could only use the Power of Chaos to assist the fusion of the Soul Gestation Crystal and Xiao Wu's soul, and prevent any signs of it devouring the Soul Gestation Crystal.
After a difficult period, Xiao Wu finally succeeded in fusing with the Soul Gestation Crystal. Although it was still somewhat unstable, it was at least much more stable than before.
Finally, we can proceed to the last step: having Xiao Wu and Wang Dong'er form Soul Spirit Contract.
Xu Xingyu had the mother and daughter hold hands and used her Soul Power to guide their souls to form a contract.
With the signing of the contract, Xiao Wu's soul was stabilized, and his soul power could be replenished and maintained through Wang Dong'er's body.
Just when everything seemed to be on the verge of success, a sudden change occurred!
As Xiao Wu's body began to transform into the unique energy body of the Soul Spirit, Xiao Wu previously stable soul suddenly began to tremble, causing the Soul Spirit ritual to become unstable.
Seeing the situation before her, Xu Xingyu immediately tried to use the Power of Chaos and the stabilizing attribute of the Mountain Dragon King to forcibly stabilize Xiao Wu's soul so that she could at least survive the Soul Spirit Ritual.
Xu Xingyu quickly understood why this was happening; a crimson light began to flicker continuously deep within Xiao Wu's soul.
Xiao Wu, who once served as Tang San's sword sheath, always took his place as the God Position of Asura God.
Over a long period of time, the God Position of the Asura God also passively modified Xiao Wu's body and soul, making her more adaptable to the scabbard.
The Asura God's Divine Power that still remained in her soul began to sense the threat and started to surge violently.
This caused Xiao Wu's soul to become unstable again.
What puzzled Xu Xingyu was that the riot seemed a little too deliberate, as if it had been planned.
Before Xu Xingyu could continue thinking, Wang Dong'er's eyes also began to glow with a blood-red light.
Tang Wutong has woken up.
