Wake up. "
"Tang Ling, my father, my brother, my partner …"
"Wake up.
Wake up! "
In the dark void, Tang Ling opened his eyes all of a sudden.
Countless memory fragments turned into waves, drowning him in an instant. In an instant, they filled his mind and finally stopped at Tang Long's punch on his chest.
"I'm Tang Ling. Am I not dead?" Tang Ling wanted to sit up, but the moment the thought crossed his mind, his body floated up and he was transported to a white world.
Tang Ling's memories were still messy and had yet to fully recover. He subconsciously floated in this world and realized that there was a shadow in this world, which made it seem like this world was not as lonely as it seemed.
Feeling a little lost, Tang Ling approached the shadow and stopped less than two meters away from it.
Is this the hell of the old civilization? Is the shadow King Yanluo?
Isn't hell a little too lonely? Isn't King Yanluo a little too lonely?
Tang Ling's thoughts ran wild. He had no idea what was going on. The only thing he was sure of was that he was dead and should be in his soul form.
It was at that moment that the shadow turned around.
When Tang Ling got a clear look at the shadow, he was stunned. That shadow looked exactly the same as him?!
No matter how confused Tang Ling was about his current situation, he knew he was not in some kind of hell and the shadow was not the King of Hell.
"Where am I? Who are you? "Tang Ling asked the question that he could not figure out, so he chose to ask.
"Have you forgotten how I called out to you?" The shadow raised a brow and retorted.
Calling my voice? Tang Ling frowned. He suddenly remembered that in the endless darkness, there was indeed a voice calling him to wake up.
The shadow addressed him as' my father, my brother, and my partner '?
What kind of weird address was that?! A father, a brother, and a companion?
However, a possibility popped up in Tang Ling's mind. He looked at the shadow and said, "You … You are the little seed?"
"How … How can you be like me?"
The little seed smiled when it saw Tang Ling's astonishment. "I'm just a cluster of consciousness. I don't have a specific appearance. But we are symbiotic. In essence, you are me, and I am you. Your appearance is naturally my appearance. "
"I see." Tang Ling nodded as he understood what the little seed was trying to say. At the same time, he showed a guilty expression. "I'm sorry. I seem to be a little stupid. I killed myself and dragged you into this …"
"He's not dead." The little seed was still smiling, and its smile was filled with intimacy, trust, and dependence on Tang Ling.
"Dead." Tang Ling touched his heart. He could feel that his heart was crushed. How could he still be alive?
However, to his surprise, he did not touch the familiar chest. Instead, he felt nothing in his hand.
"This is the space in the deepest part of your consciousness. We are communicating through our consciousness, so we don't have a physical body," the little seed explained.
The next moment, he said, "Since the space of consciousness still exists, how could you die?"
"Not dead? Why aren't you dead? "Just like how the little seed trusted Tang Ling, Tang Ling also trusted the little seed.
Since the little seed said it wasn't dead, then it wasn't!
However, he had to know why he wasn't dead. What was going on now?
"Because I've shared my life force with you, but there's only one chance. However, there's only one chance. If you die in the future, I'll really go into hibernation unless I find another Symbiote. "The little seed explained the reason in a straightforward manner.
"Your life?" Tang Ling's eyes were filled with gratitude.
"Yes, my life. It wasn't that powerful before because in my blurry memory, my life force was greatly depleted and I went into hibernation. When I regained consciousness, I realized I was already in your heart, living with you. "
"I see. Did you consume a lot of energy? "Tang Ling was worried about the little seed.
"It doesn't matter. You're the one who gave me this power. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to share my life force with you. " The little seed was calm. After a pause, it added, "You really don't have to be touched. We're living together, so it's only natural."
"No, I'm touched. I'll remember! "Tang Ling instinctively wanted to pat the little seed's shoulder, but he missed.
Both of them laughed as if they were looking into a mirror.
"But why did you say I gave you the power? Do I have the ability? " Tang Ling raised a brow. Did he eat like a Harsheen boar and somehow give the little seed power?
"Do you remember the Demon Infant? I want to replenish my life force, so I need something special. More precisely, the life force of a powerful life form. The Demon Infant was very powerful, and you were lucky to be able to kill it. "The little seed curled its lips into a smile. It knew everything about Tang Ling.
"Hey, hey, hey! What do you mean by luck? "Tang Ling was a little upset.
The little seed seemed to be a calm person. It did not argue with Tang Ling and said, "There's an inconspicuous bottle in your backpack with half a bottle of water in it. It's the key to killing the Demon Infant. You just forgot about it.
In short, the Demon Infant is a powerful life force. Even though it's dead, it still gathers the life force that I need. It's a huge supplement for me. "
Tang Ling recalled that when he killed the Demon Infant, the black-robed clergies from the Dream Domain had poured a bottle of water on the guy who possessed the Demon Infant.
Tang Ling had conveniently scooped the bottle of water away and forgotten about it.
However, he did not know what the bottle of water was used for. Was it used in the Dream Domain or in the real world?
Tang Ling's mind was filled with all sorts of questions. The little seed continued, "That's one of the reasons. Secondly, you bought a bottle of blue blood at the auction by accident. Although I don't know what it is, I'm not sure what it is. I don't know what it is, but the effect of that bottle of blood is as powerful as the Demon Infant's body.
"So, you can share your life force with me? What about the tooth? "Tang Ling asked as he pondered.
Aside from the Demon Infant's body, the bottle of blood was a little strange. He felt like someone had purposely given it to him. What was the goal?
On top of that, Tang Ling cared a lot about the things that he had spent money on. Since the little seed wanted the tooth, it was a rare opportunity for him to communicate with it, so he had to get to the bottom of it.
"The tooth? Hmm, do you remember the red blood vessels? It's definitely a tooth left behind by a powerful life form. The red blood vessels are the life force that has yet to disperse, "answered the little seed. There was no need for it to beat around the bush with Tang Ling.
"Does that mean that the tooth itself is worth a lot? Little seed, can you just absorb the life force and leave the tooth for me? "Tang Ling's eyes shone.
The little seed smiled but did not comment. It did not continue the topic. Instead, it looked at Tang Ling and said, "Regardless of the reason, my life force has been replenished. This time, I can only share my life force with you in times of danger. Other than that, I have a gift for you.
To be more precise, I finally have the power to give you the gift that someone left behind in my place. "
"What gift?" Tang Ling was delighted when he heard the word gift, but he was puzzled after a second. Is the gift that someone left for me? It sounded like it was full of questions. It was a very strange feeling.
"The gift is my true form. To be precise, it's my real five forms. That person sealed a special power in my body. It's a very precious Origin Energy that can allow me to transform into the five forms in a short period of time. "The little seed frowned as it explained.
"How should I explain it to you? This Origin Energy can indeed transform me, but without you, I might not have been able to transform into the true five forms, especially the fifth form.
"Or maybe it will evolve into another form."
"What do you mean?" Tang Ling had a feeling that the little seed was hiding a big secret.
"In simple words, only your Genetic Chain can allow me to transform into the most perfect form with you. But don't ask me too much. My memory is broken … "The little seed's face was filled with pain and confusion.
"Fine, I won't ask anymore." Tang Ling regained his calmness. He did not know what was so important about the little seed transforming into the true five forms in such a short period of time.
However, there was one question that he had to figure out. "Who left this gift behind?"
When he asked the question, Tang Ling already had a hunch.
"Tang Feng." The little seed knew that Tang Ling did not want to address Tang Feng as its father, but it had to give him the answer.
"I see …" Tang Ling did not know how to respond. His death was supposed to be to repay Tang Feng's debt.
It was a strange thought. Why would he repay Tang Feng's debt? He had no memory of Tang Feng at all.
However, Tang Feng did not seem to care about him.
What about Tang Long? Tang Long was his brother. As long as he existed, it would prove how cruel and ridiculous Tang Feng was!
Tang Ling and Tang Feng were supposed to be even, but what did Tang Feng leave behind for him? Didn't he die in order to repay his debt?
Even if he died …
With that in mind, Tang Ling suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. Or rather, he had finally woken up and regained his memories.
Yes, he was dead! At the very last moment, Higan appeared.
Tang Ling thought he was dead, but when he thought about how sad Higan might be because of his death, his heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife.
Why was the feeling in his heart so strong? Tang Ling did not want to think about the question anymore. There were too many mysteries between him and Higan.
"You remember everything, don't you? Don't worry though. Our conversation was just a moment ago. It's time for us to wake up. "The little seed's gaze turned sharp.
"The situation outside seems to be very lively. When you wake up, you will truly sense my five transformations. "
You're heavily injured. When the five changes finish, even if I share my life force with you, you'll still fall into a coma.
That's why you have to settle everything as fast as lightning. You have my five changes, so it'll be shameful if you lose. "The little seed's smile was wicked and domineering as if this was the real him.
**
Lively outside?
It must not be a good thing! Since Tang Ling and the little seed were living together, he could feel the little seed's rage from its gaze that was filled with spiritual energy.
Without a doubt, they shared the same joy and sorrow.
Alright, wake up! I still have to face this world again. The unfinished grudge and the people I missed … After a year, I realized that this world is still worth remembering.
"Now, you …" The little seed wanted to tell Tang Ling how to wake up.
"Wait, tell me, how did you become like this from the little guy who called me daddy in a childish voice? Will you always be like this from now on? If that's the case, don't call me daddy anymore. "Tang Ling never liked the little seed calling him daddy.
Damn it! Even if it has matured into a middle-aged man, does it still have to call me daddy?
I'm barely 16 years old! Can I not be a daddy anymore?! Being called daddy by a middle-aged man …
"I'm sorry, but I can't do that. You were beaten up so badly that half of the life force we shared was used up to barely sustain your life. Then, I had to use up my life force to activate your gift, so all I have left is to support our conversation. "The little seed shrugged.
"So?" Tang Ling raised a brow.
"So, I will return to my childish self and grow up with you. Unless you can find a large amount of life force that I need! Otherwise, my growth will be very slow … "The little seed's smile was teasing.
Tang Ling had the urge to curse.
"Remember, I've shared my life with you! Your path of cultivation will change subtly because of this. You can explore it yourself, but don't die so easily next time. I only have one life, so I can't share it anymore. " After the little seed finished, it looked at Tang Ling with a domineering aura that shook the entire consciousness. "Remember, my form is invincible!"
"It's the same in the whole universe. I am …" The little seed's eyes were filled with confusion again.
However, in the next second, it regained its domineering aura. "Let's wake up!"
The word "wake up" carried a powerful spiritual force that shook Tang Ling out of his consciousness.
**
'Thump, thump, thump, thump.' Could the broken heart still beat strongly?
Even in the Purple Moon era where superhumans were everywhere, anyone who said such a thing would be treated as a joke by others.
However, Tang Ling, who had been dead for almost 10 minutes, started to beat again.
The first person he felt was Higan, who was hugging him tightly.
However, Higan was not surprised at all as if Tang Ling's heartbeat and waking up was a matter of course.
The deep-sea black serpent's teeth were almost touching Higan's body. Even though the ring was not small, Tang Ling could still smell the heavy stench of blood from the serpent's mouth.
However, everything stopped.
The Deep Sea Black Serpent that was being controlled suddenly smashed into the sea in a weird posture and sank to the bottom of the sea.
"Hmph, don't you have the courage to die? Do you want to go back to the Stardust Council? Unfortunately, you don't have the chance anymore! You'll be imprisoned in the Stardust Council forever as a captive. "The deep-sea black serpent sank to the bottom of the sea? Draconic Twelve's heart was overwhelmed with joy.
Initially, he had no confidence in subduing Tang Ling and Higan before the serpent devoured them and bringing back the bodies of Higan and Tang Ling, who were of utmost importance to the Stardust Council.
However, Higan had walked right into his trap. Instead of persuading her with kind words, he decided to solve everything with violence.
After all, he was also suppressing his anger! How dare he expose the secret of his identity in front of so many people!
Nevertheless, it did not matter. His great master had expected this to happen and had prepared an explanation and a backup plan.
Draconic Twelve's words sounded like a joke. Higan did not listen to him at all. With tears in her eyes, she kissed the corner of Tang Ling's lips.
So what if a girl was not reserved? So what if she kissed him in front of so many people? Higan did not care about what others thought of her.
It was delightful to find someone that she had lost.
Since that was the case, before he woke up, could she feel the warmth at the corner of his lips?
His heart was already beating, so his lips should be warm soon, right?
Thump, thump, thump. Tang Ling's heart was beating like a drum as it grew stronger and stronger.
Higan kissed him without a second thought.
Beside her, Draconic Twelve twisted the gemstone with a ferocious expression. A faint gray aura leaked out from the gemstone. If he could twist the gemstone open, then …
Tang Long's body trembled as he looked at Higan in despair.
This must be his own hell! He had to watch Higan suffer and watch her kiss Tang Ling!
Higan would die. She would die, wouldn't she? Compared to death, kissing Tang Ling was nothing. As long as Higan could survive this crisis, he would have to …
Higan no longer cared about anything else. What was more important than kissing the person in her heart? What was the excruciating pain of twisting the gemstone? What was the huge amount of blood that flowed out from his nose and mouth? Even if she was beyond redemption, he would be alive.
However, she could not let him know what she was doing.
Higan's heart was filled with sweet shyness, but it was only shyness towards Tang Ling. Her bloodied lips finally landed softly on the corner of Tang Ling's lips.
Tang Long turned his head away. His trembling fists were still clenched and blood flowed out.
This scene was like a frozen image, imprinted in the eyes of everyone present, causing them to feel a trace of heartache.
Even though Higan was the Queen of Misfortune, she was pitiful at the moment. Was it because she was too beautiful? Even though she was in a terrible state, she still exuded a kind of poignant beauty that made people pity her?
The people sighed in their hearts. No one expected a Life Or Death Ring to cause so much trouble. Draconic Twelve, who had somehow turned into a monster, could not help but hate him, yet he could not do anything about it.
**
"Invincible in the universe? Is the little seed that arrogant? Does it know how big the universe is? "That was the only thought in Tang Ling's mind when he was jolted out of his consciousness.
However, in the next moment, he regained all his senses.
The exhaustion from the battle, the pain from his wounds, and the excruciating pain in his heart were all gone, but his heart seemed to have recovered.
What was that salty taste at the corner of his mouth? Was he thrown into the sea? No, it was the smell of blood. Why did he vomit blood when he woke up?
Wasn't he supposed to be strong?
Tang Ling suddenly opened his eyes and saw Higan.
Why is Higan in front of me? Tang Ling's heart suddenly raced. His heart that had just recovered started to throb in pain.
"Ugh." The pain made Tang Ling groan, and his groan made Higan open her eyes right away.
Their eyes met for a moment.
Tang Ling was awake! When did he wake up? Higan's face flushed red instantly. The burning sensation almost made her forget the excruciating pain.
It was only then that Tang Ling realized that Higan's lips were on the corner of his mouth. Is she kissing me?
Even though his heart was throbbing in pain, the discovery made his heart race.
However, in the next second, an unpleasant stench accompanied by a gray mist rolled towards Higan.
"Tang Ling, it's starting. Remember, you only have one chance. "At the same time, the little seed's voice echoed in Tang Ling's mind.
Right after the little seed's voice subsided, a powerful force spread from Tang Ling's heart.
Tang Ling's body stood up uncontrollably. His feet were a dozen centimeters off the ground as he floated in the air.
Even so, the recovery of his Precise Instinct allowed Tang Ling to grab Higan in time. He pulled her behind him as his consciousness blurred. Countless lines flashed in his pupils.
"Yes, this is the first transformation." In Tang Ling's eyes, the gigantic muscular giant that looked exactly like himself appeared in his transformed form.
The giant stood in the middle of the universe with the stars as his back.
He roared soundlessly in the vacuum of the universe as his body shrunk. As his body shrank, the color of his body changed drastically.
Bronze, black iron, silver, gold …
In the end, the giant's body returned to its normal size. His muscles shrunk back to their normal size, but every single one of them was as tight as a diamond and indestructible.
The dazzling golden color shrunk back into his skin and his skin returned to its normal color, but upon a closer look, one would notice a metallic luster.
Then, this person, who already seemed to have a domineering aura, changed again.
Starting from his limbs, grayish-white bone armor appeared. Even though the bone armor was dull, it felt indestructible. There were also mysterious patterns on the bone armor.
The bone armor spread rapidly and covered his entire body in an instant. In the end, it formed a helmet with a beautiful horn on the back of his head before it stopped spreading.
"The second transformation? Is this it? "The transformation in the space of consciousness did not even have the concept of time.
The others did not even have a second, but Tang Ling had gone through the transformation that was both fast and slow.
However, he was not satisfied with the second transformation.
As expected, there were new changes in the second transformation! The bone armor started to darken while the patterns started to fade. What would the final form be?
