Volume 11: The Crown Prince Chapter 52: Incarnation is extension, but we don’t know where to extend
The person holding the bone gourd now is none other than Gourd Taoist, one of Lu Bai’s two incarnations.
Previously, I went through the resource plane of Dao Qiuzhen, and then joined a scavenger organization.
In that organization, Gourd Taoist gradually took the initiative and moved closer to the Kingdom of No Death. Sure enough, taking advantage of an opportunity, he joined a medium-sized natural dimension nearby, and then smuggled into the Kingdom of No Death, becoming the commander-in-chief of the other party's resistance army here.
"This is not my job." Taoist Gourd said with some complaint.
The Taoist of Calabash Bros follows the path of Thunder Mythology, while the ghost path of the Lord of Ghosts and Goblins should be the most suitable individual for this operation.
However, Louis, that guy, hid his identity better than the Taoist priest Hulu.
His identity is relatively clear, and his relationship with Lu Bai makes him more credible.
After becoming a Sun-level being, Lu Bai even discovered that Louis' soul even had some protection from the Thousand-Dimensional God.
In other words, the God of Thousand Dimensions also helped in this regard, making it not so easy for Louis to be discovered by the Impure World.
Louis did not intend to become a pleasure seeker in the filthy land. He just wanted to use the channels of the filthy land to practice and cross the channels.
With his advanced understanding of the Impure World, this is actually possible.
The premise is not to be greedy in this filthy land.
There are still some individuals like Louis, who are born into powerful families and have good natural knowledge.
Louis' current identity is a soul that has intercepted some of the understanding of the Impure World from Lu Bai.
As Lu Bai's identity gradually becomes apparent, Louis's abnormality can be covered up.
Precisely because his identity has not been exposed yet, it is not easy for Louis to take the initiative to come forward and get involved in this matter.
And it seems that the Impure World Team did not push Louis to deal with Lu Bai's situation.
"I guess they plan to let Louis truly become a day-level pleasure seeker before bringing him out to fight against the main body." Taoist Gourd guessed.
But by that time, Louis could no longer hide.
The reason it can be hidden now is because its size is small enough. If the Impure Earth examines it in depth, it will easily cause the individual to be distorted and mutated.
However, if we do not conduct an in-depth inspection and only observe from the outside, we will not be able to truly detect Louis' abnormality.
After becoming a Sun-level being, Lu Bai's disguise of the two incarnations made them almost indistinguishable from normal life.
But, after all, the incarnation cannot be regarded as a normal life form.
They don't have a specific soul core, so Lu Bai can only use the spiritual energy and the One Spirit Origin to create the prototype of their soul.
If you keep pushing forward, you will create a real soul.
At that time, these individuals are no longer incarnations, but new lives with Lu Bai's driving force.
To be honest, Lu Bai is not able to handle the conflict here well yet.
His strength is not enough to make a real life become an incarnation under his complete control.
And with Lu Bai's temperament, he actually doesn't really like this kind of operation of completely controlling a life with infinite possibilities.
Lu Bai did not fully control the demons, but gave them great possibilities for the future.
Not to mention individuals that are created by themselves.
The same is true for the incarnation. Before the incarnation truly possesses a soul core, it is essentially just an extension of Lu Bai.
Once these incarnations awaken to their own will, they will even be able to cut off their connection with Lu Bai on their own and gain independent power.
But now, as Lu Bai improves, he gradually realizes that if the incarnation cuts off the connection with the original body before reaching a certain level.
Then after a period of time, one's outer soul will fail.
They will be pushed forward by the lack of driving force, just like a rolling ball, which will eventually stop after rolling for a while.
Unless they find new driving force during this period of time and inject this driving force into the depths of their souls.
In this way, the incarnation has the possibility of independence.
In other words, the current incarnation has no way of being independent, nor is there any way of breaking through to the Sun level.
This can be seen from the thirty-nine incarnations of No Return.
They were originally living people, but in order to create the No Return, they sacrificed their souls and were eventually degraded to incarnations.
Although they possess all Sun-level characteristics, they are no longer qualified to be human beings. Unless they get their souls back, it is impossible for them to reach the Sun-level again.
Among them, there are some incarnations who, when they were alive, mastered the solar-level characteristic of One Spirit Yuanshi, which was able to barely create souls. However, after becoming incarnations, this characteristic became unusable.
The later the day-level characteristics are, the more driving force they need to support them.
Most of the driving force possessed by the incarnations comes from the extension of the main body, which is far from enough for them to support the powerful sun-level characteristics, let alone further reach the sun level.
Therefore, it can be confirmed that after reaching a certain level, Louis can no longer go any further.
But Lu Bai doesn’t think so. As an extension of him, Louis and Hulu Taoist don’t think so either.
Perhaps after waiting for a while, when Lu Bai becomes stronger, he will be able to develop a method to use the driving force without generating autonomous "consciousness".
Allowing these incarnations to have the driving force without changing their essence as extensions.
This is actually a bit hypocritical.
Even if the soul core is born and has the driving force, the relationship between the subject and the incarnation is simply transformed into control by the driving force.
In essence, it is just a procedure, and many Japanese-level people don’t really care about it.
However, Lu Bai is particularly "persistent" about this kind of thing.
Either the avatar becomes a complete extension of yourself, or you simply set them free.
"I hope the main body can be faster." Taoist Gourd sighed.
His strength also increased rapidly during this period. His path to mythology was relatively smooth, and he gradually learned some mythological secrets.
The reason for joining the resistance this time was actually to spread myths to these vast numbers of exploited people.
He was not going to rely mainly on faith when obtaining the mythological path, but was going to use the mythological cosmology and his own yang energy as the core, with the power of faith only serving as a supplement.
Although this way you walk slower, you will also walk more steadily.
It’s just that the mythological worldview requires a kind of collective identity and the need to spread the myth widely, preferably with corresponding deeds, so that these deeds become the core of dissemination.
Only then can it eventually become the carrier of mythical power.
Taoist Hulu felt that if he could not complete the cosmic mythology view to a certain extent and use it to reach the Sun level.
Then he will gradually become a wedding dress for others and gradually become the background of his own cosmic mythology.
It is just like the creation gods in some myths, who often do not exist in the world , and those who appear before humans are mostly second or third generation god kings.
In the mythological cosmology, the creator gods are not necessarily the strongest. They can be decomposed, killed, and fall into sleep.
The Taoist Gourd is now gradually becoming the "God of Creation" in mythology.
"If there is really no other way, we can only give up independent development, completely transform from an extension to a subsidiary, and inherit Lu Bai's property." Taoist Gourd sighed.
The long-term "separation" from Lu Bai, as well as the different paths of power, gradually gave Gourd Taoist a different "personality" from Lu Bai, which is the origin of autonomous difference.
At this time, Gourd Taoist was standing at a fork in the road, one path leading to a dark future where one could not see the future, and the other leading to Lu Bai. From then on, this difference was completely erased, and he existed completely as another body of Lu Bai.
And now this completely extended state is exactly in the middle choice position.
However, he is the one in this position, and it is the subject who can decide the direction.
This feeling is not very pleasant.
"Let's help the main body to attack this immortal kingdom and try to improve the main body's strength." Taoist Gourd threw the bone gourd in his hand into the distance.
Then a ray of light flashed out from the gourd, and countless thunders in it suddenly exploded, forming a thunder field.
Those individuals hiding in the darkness were all stimulated by the thunder at this moment.
These undead spirits looked at Lei Ting and took a few steps back.
Undead individuals rarely come into contact with such violent and positive energy, and their dead bodies cannot withstand such torment.
And they could also feel that this thunder also had a transformation effect.
The aura of death on their bodies can be easily absorbed by the bone gourd and then transformed into positive thunder.
The unusual movement here immediately attracted the attention of the rebels. A large number of rebels immediately activated defensive measures and began to surround these intruders.
"They are still useless." Taoist Gourd shook his head as he looked at the rebels. So many people had come to their home. If it weren't for him, they wouldn't be able to do anything to rebel.
But it’s not their fault.
Before this, the Kingdom of No Death had an overall advantage, and those elites were attracted to the Kingdom of No Death to become the superior ones.
Only a few people who missed their homeland were left, barely maintaining their resistance work with no future in sight.
Apart from that, the remaining members of the resistance were all undead slaves who had been stripped of everything and were left with nothing.
Many of them have difficulty thinking normally. They are only very skilled in one kind of work, but are almost idiots in other things.
Only a very small number of individuals can gradually recover and become an individual capable of normal thinking through a long period of "normal" life.
"Of course, these hostile parties are now our last enemies." Taoist Gourd took a step forward and his expression became serious.
He could recognize that these individuals before him were basically assassins sent by some middle and lower-level forces .
These forces could not get involved in the dimensional war, nor could they obtain information from the internal dimensions. They watched the resistance grow stronger and gradually erode their interests, so they united.
