Chapter Eighty-Six: Soul Search
Maybe it's because Chen Xian's vitality is too strong, and the heart that was dragged out of the body is still beating non-stop, except for the sticky. In addition to the thick blood, many black meridians can be seen on the surface of the heart, which are traces left by black light parasites on the organs.
Chen Xian lowered his head and looked at the heart held in his hand by the Worship Demon, and maintained the calmest expression on his face from beginning to end, just like the posture of a bystander, as if the heart that was taken out did not belong to him.
He had never seen his heart so clearly.
The dark red organs were the size of fists, and there were several tubes that looked like tails dragging behind them, which were supposed to be broken blood vessels torn by the demons, and each beat of the heart would cause these tubes to splatter sticky. thick blood, and those slightly quivering blood vessels were like tentacles that had become jellyfish, constantly swaying gently.
After losing his heart in an instant, the blood circulation in Chen Xian's body also quickly entered a state of rest, the lack of oxygen in the body tissues and cells is the most intuitive manifestation, and the brain is the most intolerant to hypoxia of the body tissue, so at this moment Chen Xian's brain is very affected, the whole person seems to have been drained of his soul, his eyes are also half-closed, and he is groggy as if he will fall asleep at any time.
If you put aside the protection of the black light parasite, Chen Xian's physical body is actually not that strong, at least the body's ability to resist attacks or physical defense in a broad sense...... It's not as easy as those Inhumans who focus on "refining their bodies", but it's not so easy if they want him to lose his combat effectiveness instantly.
Chen Xian only has one death hole on his body, and attacking this death point can only cause him the effect of "death" with one blow, because in terms of his current self-healing ability, the speed of cell proliferation and self-healing is not enough to repair this part of the injury in an instant.
This dead hole is his brain tissue.
Once the brain tissue is seriously damaged, Chen Xian will fall into a state of suspended animation uncontrollably, until the cells in his body complete self-repair, and repair that part of the damaged brain tissue to a normal state, at which point he can recall his consciousness and resuscitate again, and before the recovery, his suspended animation state is very pure, and he can almost reach the state of selflessness.
I can't feel the presence of the body, and I can't feel any pain.
Wake up again and everything is back on track.
So for Chen Xian, being "killed" is not a bad thing, at least it won't hurt for a short time, but judging from the current situation...... He seemed to be going through something more unbearable than pain.
"You want to find a container, a medium, so you want to possess me?" Chen Xian asked without changing his face, his calm eyes still faintly shining in the dim room, "You are not a spirit body...... Do you have a soul? ”
It replied in a sarcastic tone, and the mouth that grew on the cover of the ancient book kept opening and closing, and let out an unsettling laugh: "I have no soul, but I have consciousness, and my essence is my consciousness condensation, and it is no different from the soul in the sense you describe." ”
"That's ......" Chen Xian frowned, and then fell silent.
Chen Xian is not untouched by objects that have not dealt with abnormal beings or possession abilities, in his memory, those who want to possess him are very weak, and almost have no effect on him, because his innate physique is like this, and the abnormal cells in his body are very repulsive to everything in the outside world.
I think that when the parasite parasitized him for the first time, the reason why Chen Xian was so painful was because his extremely abnormal body cells had been rejecting the parasite from beginning to end, until the black light parasite showed itself harmless in some unknowable way, and those cells gradually accepted it, but it was still limited. control its active area.
The active area of the black light parasite is divided into the body part below the head. Once the parasite wants to illegally invade Chen Xian's head, the abnormal cells in Chen Xian's body will intercept it as quickly as possible, and drive the parasite back to where it should be, all of which is finally changed by the mask of the afflicted.
Ever since Chen Xian put on the mask of the Afflicted, the black light parasite has been able to enter the head area in a grand manner, and there are only two explanations for this change.
First, the Afflicted Mask's power is far stronger than that of the parasite, which can resist the rejection of abnormal cells in the body, thus forcibly invading the human body.
Second, the abnormal cells in the body do not repel the Mask of the Afflicted, as for why not reject it..... Maybe it's because the cells feel that the Afflicted Mask isn't threatening?
All in all, before he got the mask of the parasite and the sufferer, Chen Xian's body belonged to the kind that was difficult to be possessed by the energy body, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was an insulator, at least no object had ever been able to attach to Chen Xian's body, and now with these two "artifacts", .......
Based on Chen Xian's knowledge of parasites and masks these days, he can be sure that these two devices possess the same repulsive properties as abnormal cells. It is clearly stated in the documents given to him that they can insulate nearly ninety-five percent of known spirits from possession, although this book is a condensation of consciousness...... But after all, it's some kind of unknown energy, right?
Energy bodies and spirit bodies have a lot in common, and the only risk is that the types of energy are different.
Chen Xian thought of this, and his mood was a little heavy, because no matter how you look at this book, it is not an ordinary object, it is composed of consciousness..... It should be a lot more complicated than a regular spirit.
"From what you can remember, you shouldn't have been possessed by an energy body." It spoke in a strange tone, as if it meant something, "I think it's a little difficult to get into your body...... At least I don't have a chance to enter your body until you eat part of my consciousness. ”
Hearing this, Chen Xian suddenly shuddered.
The white light in the body of the insect giant on the Spirit Rhino Mountain...... Isn't that its consciousness?!
Didn't you succeed in digesting that mass of consciousness??
At this moment, Chen Xian felt something strange in his stomach. Things were churning, as if a flame had appeared, invisible to the naked eye, burning the stomach lining at extremely high temperatures......
"The parasite gave up its protection from me...... It's also because of this white light......" Chen Xian's face was extremely ugly.
Hearing this, it just smiled and didn't give any explanation.
"All you need to enter your body is a primer, and that's what you eat, but before I do that, I'm going to pull your soul out......" it said earnestly, meticulous and unsparing, "I don't want to be in the same room with your lowly soul...... I'm going to give your soul to the Demon ......."
"Can't be discussed?" Chen Xian's brows furrowed, and his tone looked a little annoyed, "I'm not ready to die yet, can I discuss it again?" ”
“........”
"Why don't I give you this body and you let go of my soul?" Chen Xian cautiously put forward his careful wishes.
"Do you think it's possible?" It asked rhetorically.
Chen Xian frowned and thought for a while, and said, "It's unlikely, but ......"
Before Chen Xian could finish speaking, a long tongue stretched out from the mouth on the flesh cover. The head, structure and outline approximate the human tongue. head, only to be forcibly stretched and extended......
One meter, two meters.
until he stretched out in front of Chen Xian.
The dense human eyes on the tongue coating are only the size of soybeans, and while Chen Xian is looking at them, they can also turn freely to look at Chen Xian, and that strange gaze seems to hide the most evil thing in this world, and when looking at them, they can only feel deep unease.
Without waiting for Chen Xian to say anything, the Body Demon suddenly pulled out the arm holding the heart, and its tongue. The head also took advantage of this gap to stretch out. into the wound in Chen Xian's chest, all over the tongue. The eyeballs on the surface of the head also cracked in an instant, and countless black wire-like objects suddenly drilled out of it, and the hundreds of bones along Chen Xian's limbs began to invade frantically.
Chen Xian only felt that his body was occupied by some kind of web-like thing, like a new neural network, which was everywhere and every corner of his body, searching for something.
"It seems that your soul is well hidden....... "it muttered to itself, "I have taken out countless human souls...... Human souls that are more powerful than you are not so hard to find....... Is it ...... in the brain?"
At the same time as it said this, Chen Xian only felt an uncontrollable tremble, because he found that those nets extended from his neck to his head, and their invasion of his body did not bring him the slightest pain. The physical sensation is more unbearable than the pain, as if the whole body does not belong to you...... became its marionette.
The process of searching for souls was very short, it only lasted about half a minute, and every second during this period Chen Xian struggled to think of countermeasures, but the reality was so cruel that he couldn't help despairing, because he had no ability to resist in front of this book, and he was controlled from head to toe and couldn't move.
"Even if you call for help now, it's useless...... Mu He, their combat strength should not be as good as mine......" Chen Xian sighed in his heart, as if he had accepted his fate, "Let them come and die...... This time it was a complete miss...... I just don't know if the headquarters can solve this problem......"
Suddenly, Chen Xian heard the book "huh".
It was as if it had discovered something surprising to it, and that tone of astonishment and surprise appeared on it for the first time.
"What's wrong?" Chen Xian looked at it with a pale face, and rarely took the initiative to open the taunt skill, "I said that your level is inferior, and you have been looking for a long time, and you haven't found it yet?" ”
It didn't pay attention to Chen Xian's taunt, and searched in silence for another half minute, and when it spoke again, its tone was already full of disbelief.
"You..... You don't have a soul?? ”
