Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Spiritual Realm
Liu Dongfei's blood deformity is called "Blood Spirit Royal Hand", through physical contact, he can issue mandatory functional instructions to various cells and tissues in the human body, and can also obtain various information about cell tissues, but he cannot let one type of cell exert the specific function of another cell.
For example, he can't get muscle cells to secrete a certain glandular hormone, nor can he let glandular cells transport oxygen to red blood cells, nor can he make red blood cells expand and contract muscle tissue.
Among the types of cells that Liu Dongfei can interfere with at present, nerve cells are the type of cells that have not yet been fully mastered, and he has closed himself in the room in the past few days in order to break through the mastery of nerve cells, so this time to dominate Cao Yin's nervous system is both an opportunity and a challenge for him.
Although the survivors of the Black Mansion stronghold rely on Liu Dongfei very much, few people are willing to let Liu Dongfei do experiments and exercises on his brain and spine without any certainty, after all, it is not like muscles and skin, if it is not done, it will cause irreversible damage to the nervous system, and he will not even be able to take care of himself in the future.
Therefore, Liu Dongfei's "Blood Spirit Royal Hand" is currently best at strengthening the healing ability, immunity and metabolic ability of cell tissues, these physiological functions are very important in the case of scarce medical means, as long as Liu Dongfei is willing, he even has a way to solve recurrent constipation and diabetes.
However, this time, Liu Dongfei is about to enter the nerve field that he is not good at, and try to control Cao Yin's blood deformity "Shadow Blood", so that the "Shadow Blood" enters Cao Yin's skull and launches a miniature "Blood-devouring Razor", thereby destroying the pulse locator embedded in the skull.
The reason why it is difficult to manipulate the field of the nervous system is that in addition to touching the other party's brain with both hands, there is also a very dangerous and complicated operation, that is, Liu Dongfei must link his own spirit to the other party's nervous system to realize the permission sharing of neural networks.
Liu Dongfei once tried to establish a spiritual connection with a companion to treat the other person's epilepsy, but the consequences of the mistake were unexpectedly serious.
Because Liu Dongfei did not grasp the strength of the other party's cranial nerve tissue when manipulating it, the other party's cranial nerve was slightly burned, and the epilepsy was not cured, but the other party suffered from trigeminal neuralgia, and no one dared to find Liu Dongfei to treat neurological diseases from then on.
After this accident, Liu Dongfei also blamed himself very much, and at the same time, it also stimulated his urgent desire to break through the bottleneck of his own ability. He vowed never to treat anyone else with neural link-based therapy until he had mastered his abilities for the nervous system.
But this time, it is a matter of the safety of the entire stronghold, and even if Liu Dongfei is not sure, he can only establish a spiritual link with Cao Yin.
The process of spiritual connection is not as natural as eating and sleeping, and Liu Dongfei has to endure the intense pain that occurs when the two different spirits are bridged with each other, and this pain extends from the hand to the entire brain, like a red-hot electric current flowing through it.
This process is very similar to the pain that Cao Yin had when he stole the abilities of other awakened people, but Liu Dongfei did not have the "Misfortune and Bitter Ring" to transfer this severe pain, he could only bear it throughout the whole process, and he had to steadily maintain the smooth bridging of the spiritual link during this period.
When the spiritual link was successfully bridged, Liu Dongfei felt that he was rapidly detaching himself from the scene of reality, all the physical sensations in reality were disappearing rapidly, and he could open his eyes to see the flow of light and shadow around him, and the scarlet light and inky black clouds were intertwined and rolled together, forming a magnificent and strange endless tunnel.
When he felt that gravity began to return to his senses, Liu Dongfei knew that he was about to arrive at Cao Yin's spiritual realm, and if he wanted to control Cao Yin's "Shadow Blood", he must first become the master of his spiritual realm, and if he wanted to become the master of Cao Yin's spiritual realm, he must temporarily seize his "spiritual sense".
Liu Dongfei has entered his own spiritual realm, and he has also entered the spiritual realm of his companion with epilepsy, and the situation of everyone's spiritual realm is basically different, but the awakened people who are also "blood deformity traits", their spiritual realm has a common characteristic, the color of the sky is blood red.
The ground scene in the spiritual realm is related to the scene with the most profound memories in their childhood, so most people's spiritual realm will be unconsciously made into their childhood home and its surrounding scenes, and occasionally there will be acquaintance phantoms in childhood memories.
Finally, Liu Dongfei fell into Cao Yin's spiritual realm, he first had to find Cao Yin's consciousness body, and it was not difficult to find him, because the scope of the spiritual realm was actually quite limited, and it was in the center of the spiritual realm, and the periphery was the chaotic zone of consciousness.
In general, the ontology of consciousness will only stay in the concrete scene in the central area.
Liu Dongfei was stunned by Cao Yin's spiritual realm, the central scene of the realm was a very atmospheric classical palace, the main color of the palace was vermilion, it was surrounded by dark red mountain rocks and verdant spruce cedars, and the mountain rocks and tree canopies were covered with a layer of pleasing white snow.
Liu Dongfei used to be a veteran traveler, and there are few scenic spots in the Tamad Federation that he doesn't know, even if he doesn't go there in person, he only needs to look at the characteristic pictures or videos to tell the name and geographical location of the scenic spots.
However, in the face of this magnificent red palace and the dark red mountains and rocks around it, Liu Dongfei stopped and recalled for a long time, but there was no worthy name in the north.
The northern state of the Tamad Federation is the smallest state in the country, and its city size and population are very small, and its main role is to provide a base for the armed fortress of the federal army, and this kind of ancient palace architecture is the most unlikely to appear in the territory of the Chalk.
Liu Dongfei's feet were covered with a thick layer of silver frost, he shook the snow on his hair, couldn't help but shiver, and thought: "This is probably a scenic spot in a northern country, I have never seen it, Cao Yin turned out to be a foreigner, and I really didn't notice it when I heard the accent." ”
At this time, a thin and handsome man walked out of the main gate of the palace, Liu Dongfei fixed his eyes, it was not Cao Yin, but a middle-aged man in a gray suit, he had never seen him, and he looked at him suspiciously for a long time, this middle-aged man was not a remnant of memory, but a real spiritual incarnation.
The strange middle-aged man saw Liu Dongfei, waved at him, and motioned for him to come over.
"Who are you, don't tell me you're Cao Yin." Liu Dongfei remained vigilant, because in the spiritual realm, there would generally only be an ontological consciousness incarnation, and the man in front of him was obviously not Cao Yin, who was he?
The middle-aged man smiled calmly: "I'm not Cao Yin, but I know you, and I also know what you're here for." ”
"So, before I entered Cao Yin's spiritual realm, you shared your senses and perceptions with him, so who are you and why are you in his spiritual realm." Liu Dongfei was not surprised, since this person was in Cao Yin's consciousness, then he was very likely to be clear about what Cao Yin had experienced.
"It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I will assist you to achieve your goals," the middle-aged man said, "If you are alone, you can't help him take out the locator, do you know this?" ”
"How do you know?" Liu Dongfei responded with some disdain.
"Because you can't master the 'Shadow Blood' at all, let alone its sub-ability 'Blood Devouring Razor'", the middle-aged man sighed and said, "You trespassed into Cao Yin's spiritual realm, didn't you consider the danger of being swallowed by the outer Chaos Frontier?" ”
"Don't fool me, the center of the spiritual realm is a centripetal force," Liu Dongfei replied unconvinced, "Even if I fall to the edge of chaos, the center of the realm will pull me back." ”
"The centripetal force generated by the center of the spiritual realm will only have an effect on the proprioceptive consciousness, you shouldn't know this," the middle-aged man said, "If you fall into the chaotic zone of Cao Yin's spirit while shuttling, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”
"Why do you dare to say that!" Liu Dongfei replied unceremoniously, although he was not very confident in his ability to operate the nervous system, he was still very unhappy to be judged by an unidentified guy.
"Because just now you were about to fall into the spiritual chaos zone," the middle-aged man said, "It was I who adjusted your bridging route in time to let you reach the center safely and soundly, do you know what will happen if you really fall into Cao Yin's spiritual chaos zone?" ”
The middle-aged man paused, and his tone strengthened a little: "It is difficult for you to return to your body, you can only linger in Cao Yin's spiritual chaos zone forever." ”
Liu Dongfei saw that the middle-aged man's face was solemn, he didn't look like he was joking, and he no longer spoke disrespectfully, but just looked at him with a blue face.
"Forget it, wait until you have played your own spiritual realm thoroughly before thinking about entering other people's spiritual realm," the middle-aged man said, "Now Cao Yin is in a coma, so you can't see him here." ”
"Where is he?" Liu Dongfei was a little stunned at this time, "He didn't consider that the coma state would affect the position of Cao Yin's consciousness body. ”
"It's so comfortable floating around the border of chaos that you don't have to worry about him," the middle-aged man said, "Without further ado, I'll help you destroy the locator." ”
"You damaged me like a piece of waste just now, why don't you do it yourself?" Liu Dongfei said unhappily.
"Because the premise of the activation of the 'Shadow Blood' is that there is a complete consciousness, and I am not a complete consciousness, I still need your help to successfully control the 'Shadow Blood'."
"Didn't you say I couldn't master the 'Blood of the Shadows', aren't you inconsistent?"
"Of course you can't control it alone, do you think that the 'Shadow Blood' is an ordinary blood deformity, if you don't have my guidance and constraints, not only will you not be able to control the Shadow Blood, but you will also be injured by it," the middle-aged man said, "Brother Dongfei, you'd better trust me, otherwise you won't achieve your original intention of coming here." ”
"Hmph, do whatever you say!" Liu Dongfei raised his head and said, "What should I do to be satisfied?" ”
"The 'Blood of the Skeleton' requires the will of the body to activate, but Cao Yin is now in the chaos zone, and there is no way to count on him," the middle-aged man said, "What is your current awakening level?" ”
"A-grade, but it is expected to break through to S-level in the near future!"
"A-grade should be enough," the middle-aged man said, "I want you to temporarily become the embodiment of the 'Shadow Blood', so that you can penetrate into Cao Yin's skull in the form of blood, and at the same time, you can also sense the presence of the locator." ”
"How...... How? Liu Dongfei heard Cao Yin say that his ability can summon an incarnation called "Red Butterfly" in the form of blood mist, this incarnation has self-consciousness, in addition to being able to communicate with Cao Yin, he can also cooperate with Cao Yin, which is very incredible.
"Cao Yin's ability incarnation is called 'Red Butterfly', why don't you just let it go?"
"Without the will of the ontological body, the 'Red Butterfly' can't do anything, so the only way is to inject your complete consciousness into the 'Shadow Blood', but there is also a certain risk, if your adaptation level is not enough, it is very likely to be assimilated by the 'Shadow Blood'."
"What are the consequences of assimilation?"
"Your consciousness will be decomposed and absorbed by the 'Blood of the Shadow', and the 'Blood Terrant' of your body will expand wildly after losing the restraint of your spiritual power, and your body will become a walking corpse."
"Stay north, it's so terrifying!" Liu Dongfei waved his hand again and again, "I'm not doing it, I'll go back!" ”
The middle-aged man sneered: "I've been talking to you for so long, do you think you still have a way out?" ”
After that, the middle-aged man suddenly approached Liu Dongfei with an arrow step, and before Liu Dongfei could react, his neck was grabbed by the middle-aged man.
"Brother Dongfei, you can rest assured, I won't let you die here," the middle-aged man said in a deep voice, "My means can save your life, but only if you destroy the locator as I say." ”
After that, the middle-aged man shouted angrily, and his whole body began to erupt with dark red flames, and the flames around him emitted heat waves, surging and rising, and converged towards the back shoulders of the middle-aged man, and in a moment, Liu Dongfei saw a dark red humanoid monster crouching on the back of the middle-aged man.
Although the monster was humanoid, it was covered in blood, its head and body were skeletal with a little flesh, and behind its towering spine were two life-size butterfly wings, and there were several black and red, swirling whirlpools on the wings, and you could clearly see that there were three swirls with human faces embedded in the center.
There was a face that Liu Dongfei barely recognized, and it turned out to be Li Yehua, the former leader of the stronghold in the fifth district of the Black Building.
The scene was shocking, Liu Dongfei was so frightened that he couldn't speak at this time, and could only stare at the middle-aged man with wide eyes.
"Don't be nervous," said the middle-aged man, "I won't hurt you." ”
As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, he suddenly raised his other hand and pointed at Liu Dongfei, the monster on his back seemed to have received an order, his head was slightly raised, and he jumped towards Liu Dongfei.
The middle-aged man pinched Liu Dongfei's mouth open, and the dark red monster turned into a flame again, drilling straight into his body from Liu Dongfei's mouth, and at the same time, Liu Dongfei's body was covered with red and shiny vessel-like lines, and even his eyes were dyed with dazzling scarlet.
