Chapter 1770: Chapter 1617: Otherworldly Entertainment Tycoon 47
Hao Ren’s thoughts really angered Jian Shuangshuang, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter. Jian Shuangshuang absolutely did not approve of this method of indirectly plundering others’ lives.
Even if the plundering is aimed at one’s own future life, it’s the same. What does the next life have to do with the current life? Since reincarnation already makes one another person, this method is as despicable as soul-seizing.
Although in this world, some powerful beings can regain new life through reincarnation, those powerful beings reincarnate with memories.
The bodies they enter never have another spirit within them from the start, so their reincarnation is true reincarnation, not a soul-seizure of a fetus. This is different from seizing one’s next life in the present.
Being told by Jian Shuangshuang, Hao Ren’s face paled. He hurriedly explained, "No, I never thought of having Chusheng seize his next life, it’s just that if his next life remembers the present, there’s no harm; it’s merely the union of two lives."
Hao Ren truly did not want Fan Chusheng to seize his next life. He just thought if a person reincarnates, there’s a chance to recall the present life, then wouldn’t the integration of past and present be quite good?
Actually, when Hao Ren first found Fan Chusheng, he was all confused by Fan Chusheng’s wish to turn ghost cultivator, and hadn’t really thought about soul-seizing or not. His earlier words hadn’t gone through his mind.
Jian Shuangshuang carefully observed Hao Ren’s expression, realizing he was truly regretful and panicked but didn’t show any guilty emotions. Her expression then relaxed.
Her tone softened as well: "Maybe you want the best for him, but even if you mean well for someone, you have to see if your good intentions are needed by them. Do not force your thoughts onto others.
You think the union of two lives isn’t bad, but think about it yourself, if one day, you suddenly recall your own past life.
And then suddenly inherit the emotions and past from then, while your present feelings are overridden by the thoughts and emotions of the past, how would you feel?"
Hao Ren imagined for a moment, a feeling of reluctance immediately welled up in his heart. If he were overridden by his past emotions, then what about his current self? Wouldn’t he become another person and lose himself, Hao Ren?
Also, what does the past have to do with the present? Why should he let past emotions dominate his feelings and mind? Just thinking this made anger rise in his heart from his life being invaded.
Taking a deep breath, Hao Ren’s face turned a shade of red. At this moment, he truly understood that he had previously thought wrongly. Hao Ren couldn’t help but look at Fan Chusheng, filled with guilt, whispering a "Sorry."
After apologizing to his friend, Hao Ren turned to Jian Shuangshuang, suddenly bowing deeply: "Thank you, Miss Jian, for awakening me, otherwise I might have made a great mistake."
Seeing Hao Ren’s posture, Jian Shuangshuang’s expression completely softened, she waved her hand: "It’s not that serious; even if he truly reincarnates, he can’t possibly remember the present.
If recalling the past were that easy, the Mortal World would have been in chaos long ago. You were just worried and confused; I understand. I might be too fond of being earnest, but it’s fine as long as you don’t blame me for interfering."
Hao Ren blushing slightly: "Miss Jian, please don’t say such things. Otherwise, I would feel too ashamed. The previous matter was indeed my misjudgment, not at all Miss Jian’s meddling."
Jian Shuangshuang and Hao Ren exchanged polite words, brushing aside the previous contention, turning their attention to Fan Chusheng. At this moment, Fan Chusheng had reached the crucial stage of transforming into a ghost cultivator.
Fan Chusheng’s body flickered between reality and illusion, converting continuously. The biggest difference between a ghost cultivator and ordinary ghosts is that ghost cultivators are not afraid of the sun, while ghosts are.
The soul body of a ghost cultivator can switch between entity and illusion, whereas a mere ghost cannot convert to entity. When a ghost cultivator switches to entity, they can consume food and transform it into Soul Power for absorption.
Whether a ghost is successfully transformed into a ghost cultivator is judged primarily by whether it can convert its illusory soul body into an entity.
Now Fan Chusheng’s soul body is gradually converting to entity, starting from below and moving upwards, first materializing the feet, then shins, and gradually onwards.
Hao Ren and Xuan Fire were nervously watching Fan Chusheng’s transformation, their eyes unblinking, even their breaths subconsciously lightened for fear of disturbing Fan Chusheng.
Luckily, everything proceeded smoothly, Fan Chusheng’s soul continuously materialized at a stable pace, quickly transforming completely into entity.
The moment his soul body fully materialized, Fan Chusheng opened his eyes, and as he did, dense Yin Qi rapidly converged from all directions towards him.
This Yin Qi was precisely attracted by Fan Chusheng. When human cultivators cultivate, they attract large amounts of Mystic Energy for themselves; similarly, when ghost cultivators cultivate, they naturally attract large amounts of Yin Qi.
Yet after gathering the massive Yin Qi, Fan Chusheng didn’t immediately absorb it; all the Yin Qi instead converged at the top of his head.
The presence of Yin Qi brought moments of extreme coldness. If Jian Shuangshuang and Hao Ren weren’t Great Xuan Masters, and if Xuan Fire weren’t extremely heat-oriented, this coldness could freeze them into solid ice.
Even though Jian Shuangshuang, Hao Ren, and Xuan Fire weren’t frozen into ice, the underground tunnel’s walls and floors began to show patches of frost.
These frosts weren’t of the usual white variety; inexplicably, amidst such atmosphere, they exuded a chilling blue hue, far colder than ordinary white frost.
The Yin Qi continued being drawn in by Fan Chusheng, converging above his head. As the Yin Qi accumulated more and more, it formed a visible Yin Qi vortex above him.
As the Yin Qi vortex formed, the surrounding ground and walls no longer were frosted; instead, they began to accumulate large areas of icy blue frost.
When the Yin Qi vortex consolidated into a giant cloud of shadow, Fan Chusheng finally ceased gathering Yin Qi. He took a deep breath and began to sharply absorb the Yin Qi vortex into his Qi Sea.
This was the final, most challenging step in Fan Chusheng’s transformation into a ghost cultivator: injecting vast amounts of Yin Qi into his Dantian to establish a Yin Qi Sea.
Human cultivation cannot proceed without a Mystic Energy Sea, and similarly, ghost cultivation cannot progress without a Yin Qi Sea. Yet the formation of the Yin Qi Sea is the toughest barrier of all.
It’s a lengthier process than conversion to entity. Xuan Fire and Hao Ren closely monitored Fan Chusheng without blinking, but Jian Shuangshuang found it somewhat dull.
It’s uncertain how much time passed before the Yin Qi vortex was entirely absorbed clean by Fan Chusheng, and his body remained in a substantial state, indicating his successful transformation into a ghost cultivator.
He leapt up, excitedly feeling his longed-for, no longer semi-transparent body, eyes glistened with tears.
