Chapter 2872 - 1361: Super Spirit Body, Possession and Fusion [II]_2

Just as he mentioned to Motan earlier, the [Spirit Medium] profession is different from the typical spellcaster like the [Undead Mage], as its corresponding talents and skills are rather peculiar, akin to the elusive recipes of many Chinese dishes, making the adjustment process indispensable to achieve a perfect state.

Fortunately, Yi Dong has great talent in this area...

So even though he only focused on adjustments for five minutes, he felt he was in ’optimal state’ upon receiving Motan’s message and without hesitation, activated the skill which, although not explicitly stated, carries an extremely heavy cost—

[Possession Merge·Super Spiritual Body]

Active Talent

Usage Restrictions: Must possess the [Spirit Medium] profession, have the [Lifebound Ghost] skill, the lifebound tablet must not be in cooldown, have any super spirit body medium/basic attributes not less than 50% of the target spirit body

Effect: For a certain period, using oneself as a vessel, channel the target spirit body into oneself and acquire the corresponding ability, cooldown time: none

[Note: Those who can see spirits are not bad people~]

Though the description is very brief and ambiguous, this is [Rin Winter]’s character’s strongest skill in name and effect. The greyish-white mist emanated from the short blade and directly merged into Yi Dong’s body, while a tinge of pitch-black glow spread from his left eye.

In the next instant, accompanied by a burst of ghostly blue soul fire igniting at the center of Yi Dong’s left pupil, this young man, who had a refreshing and sunny aura with handsome features in his Zombie form, suddenly hunched over, emitting a growl unlike anything human from his vocal cords, then jerked upright like a puppet on strings, and moved his body sluggishly.

Then proceeded to break over twenty bones.

That’s right, by just shaking his neck and shrugging his shoulders, [Rin Winter] managed to snap over twenty bones within his own body. Clearly, the consciousness that awakened within his current feeble body through this ritual couldn’t adapt, causing physical damage to Yi Dong’s ’muscles and bones’ from mere instinctual actions, almost killing him.

However, before it could proceed to the next action, a dark and obscure mist arose from Yi Dong’s chest, condensing instantaneously behind him into a figure identical to [Rin Winter]. Yi Dong’s lifebound shadow emerged expressionless, with a blackened forehead and iron-green complexion, wearing a perpetually ’flowing’ misty black robe. It stepped forth synchronously with Yi Dong, merging as one.

After that, his right eye, which had maintained a somewhat normal appearance, also transformed. Only remaining clear, it too ignited with a pitch-black soul fire, creating a fashionable yet dangerously high-intensity visual alongside the left eye’s ghostly blue flame.

Simultaneously, Yi Dong regained autonomy over his body, moreover with enhanced control.

What’s specific about this enhanced control? Let’s illustrate with a simplistic example—

For most normal people, like you holding your phone or facing your computer screens, or myself here squinting while typing on a keyboard, controlling the body seems straightforward..... through the thalamus, frontal lobes, striatum, cerebellum, etc., we intend, plan, command, control, and execute movements: wish to lift a hand, we lift it; wish to stretch a leg, we stretch it.

However, Yi Dong’s current enhanced control state adds an extra layer of function: action-commanding through sheer thought.

Specifically, if one feels thirsty, there is normally a series of actions, like standing, walking, opening doors, retrieving water, unscrewing caps, applying more force to unscrew caps, using tissues to hold caps, adjusting breathing rhythms, applying extreme force to open caps, and finally drinking.

Yi Dong now can reduce all that to a singular thought, ’I’m thirsty, I want a drink’, and his body will complete the entire series of actions on its own, complying entirely with his habitual mannerisms; while the motions remain his own, it liberates his mental capacity.

Although this sounds fantastical, it’s not hard to explain.

At the moment, Yi Dong’s body utilizes a three-tier control system: the highest being his consciousness, equivalent to how we are with our bodies; the lowest is the primitive instinct of the super spirit body, devoid of literal consciousness, a tangible representation of experience and memory—silent, no weeping, no dispute, no clamor; the middle layer is Yi Dong’s lifebound shadow, fortifying the main consciousness’s bodily dominion, and subduing the super spirit body’s instinct.

The previously described ’enhanced control’ entails Yi Dong relinquishing control, letting his lifebound shadow take over. Naturally, his own lifebound shadow would not act contrary to his wishes, adhering entirely to his original mannerisms.

In summary, only now has Yi Dong fully engaged in the super spirit body mode, and the interval since Motan’s transmitted message hasn’t exceeded two seconds.

Although these events were recounted with considerable verbosity, in reality, roughly only a second and a half elapsed.

In the next instant, under Yi Dong’s will, his lifebound shadow, having seized bodily control, propelled [Rin Winter] out of a window at an unbelievable velocity towards the now eerily quiet ’battlefield’, even managing to don a comical mask in transit.

Observing remotely, Yi Dong’s primary consciousness opened the system menu to check his character panel—

’This is my current character panel, isn’t it impressive? I just ask if it’s impressive!!’

Yi Dong grinned, promptly copying the character panel and sending it to Motan exactly as it was.

’You must be a big fool, how can you have the leisure to send me data at a time like this?!’

Motan, for his part, timely responded with a message just as Yi Dong finished sending his.

Simultaneously as the message was sent, a stark glint descended from the sky aimed precisely at Double Leaf’s back.

Blood splattered—
