The grand and solemn Sacred Soul Palace was empty. Only Xia Pingan and Elder Mu were standing under the dome of the palace.
A golden stele gushed out from the underground of the palace. Right in front of the two, there were four words on the stele — Doppelganger Technique!
A palm-sized groove was right below the four words.
To be honest, seeing such a secret method, Xia Pingan was not only excited, but also shocked. This was because he didn't expect the Spiritual Realm to have such a secret method. Xia Pingan had never heard of such a secret method.
"Elder Mu, what kind of doppelganger can I have after learning this secret method? Isn't my current spiritual body a doppelganger? " Xia Pingan didn't rush to put his palm into the groove of the stele. Instead, he frowned slightly and asked.
"Your Majesty, spiritual bodies and doppelganger are not the same thing. In the worldview of the Spiritual Realm, everything in the material world is just an extension of the Spiritual Realm, including Your Majesty's body in the material world. That body is just a tool for the spiritual body to walk in the material world. It's a raft for the spiritual body to pass through different stars and worlds. It's also your armor and clothes. The reason why this doppelganger secret method is placed in the Sacred Soul Palace is that it's a high-level application of spiritual body and soul power. After mastering this secret method, Your Majesty can have more tools and bodies to walk in different worlds …"
Hearing Elder Mu's words, two words suddenly appeared in Xia Pingan's mind — Possession! This made Xia Pingan's heart skip a beat. According to the worldview of the Spiritual Realm, spiritual bodies were dominant and fundamental. The physical body was just a body and clothes. Since it was a body and clothes, it could naturally be changed frequently.
"You mean, after mastering this secret method, I can … can take over other people's bodies for my own use?" If this mystic technique was the same as possession, Xia Pingan was somewhat against it. Mystic techniques were neither good nor evil. This was a manifestation of the application of laws and rules. However, humans were both good and evil. Xia Pingan found it hard to accept possession.
Elder Mu looked at Xia Pingan with a deep gaze. "Your Majesty, since ancient times, people in the Spiritual Realm who have mastered this kind of secret method have seized other people's bodies, but it's very rare. The consequences of seizing another person's body are extremely serious. The lightest consequence is a backlash, mental disorder, and complete madness. In the worst case, one will be punished by the Heavenly Dao and be struck by lightning, destroying one's body and soul. The doppelganger secret method that we've mastered follows a commandment and law passed down from ancient times, which is not to seize another person's body."
"If it doesn't plunder the bodies of other living beings, how can this secret technique possess a body in the material world?"
"If a person dies in his sleep, the body he leaves behind in the material world will be ownerless and will turn into dust. According to the laws of the Spiritual Realm, the ownerless body can be used by us and become our doppelganger!"
"Ah, Elder Mu, are you saying that this secret method can take over the body of a dead person?"
"Yes, as long as that person dies in his sleep within six hours, we can become the owner of that body again!" Elder Mu explained with a deep look in his eyes. "In fact, in the early days of the Spiritual Realm, this doppelganger technique was just a method for people in the Spiritual Realm to experience different material worlds. We use different doppelgangers to travel to different worlds and experience the wonders of different worlds, enriching our life experiences. This secret method has no evil meaning at all!"
Xia Pingan immediately grasped a key piece of information from Elder Mu's words, which shocked him. "Elder Mu, you're saying that this secret method can allow us to travel to different material worlds through the Spiritual Realm? That is to say, this secret method is not limited to the world where my physical body is?"
"Of course, if this secret method is only limited to one world, then why do we need different doppelgangers?" Elder Mu nodded. "After learning this secret method, as long as your spirit body goes to different places in the Spiritual Realm, you can find a doppelganger in the corresponding material world of the Spiritual Realm and create a new life experience!"
Xia Pingan was stunned. If that was the case, didn't it mean that he was in the corresponding Spiritual Realm of Earth? So … he could use this doppelganger technique to find a doppelganger on Earth and return to Earth, the Great Yan Republic, and see Xia Ning, Old Tu, Mo Yanshao, and the others again …
The space passage between Earth and the Yuanqiu World was sealed, but the connection to the Spiritual Realm was still there.
This doppelganger technique was the Trojan horse and back door from the Spiritual Realm to the material world.
Xia Pingan was suddenly excited. He felt his heart throbbing violently because he had thought of many possibilities in an instant. This made his mind a little muddled.
Xia Pingan took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and asked, "Elder Mu, I'm a Six-Sun Realm Summoner now. If I have a doppelganger in the material world, will that doppelganger also be a Six-Sun Realm Summoner?"
Elder Mu smiled wisely and then asked, "Your Majesty, do you think the secret mandala of a Summoner is attached to our spirit body or our physical body?"
Xia Pingan was stunned. This was the simplest question, but it was probably a question that many Summoners would never think of in their lifetime. Which body was the secret mandala attached to?
Xia Pingan thought about it and said uncertainly, "Uh … I think it should be the physical body?"
"If it's the physical body, then can the organs, tissues, and cells of the physical body accommodate the scale of the secret mandala, create a world in the physical body, and summon thousands of troops? If it's the physical body, why can't we find any traces of the existence of the secret mandala even if we dissect the Summoner's entire body? Why is it that some Summoners are disabled, lose many of their organs, and even change their hearts, but it doesn't affect them from using the secret summoning technique? "
Elder Mu's question stumped Xia Pingan.
"If the secret mandala of a Summoner is attached to our spirit body, then why can't I use the summoning technique now?" Xia Pingan asked his own question.
"Because although the secret mandala is attached to our spirit body, it needs to borrow the power of the physical body and the material world to manifest!"
Xia Pingan's heart trembled. "So …"
Elder Mu smiled. "So, if Your Majesty is a Six Sun Realm Summoner, then Your Majesty's doppelganger is naturally a Six Sun Realm Summoner. It's just that Your Majesty's spirit body has used different bodies and tools to manifest the secret mandala in the material world. However, the doppelganger secret technique also has its limitations!"
"What limitations?"
"Your Majesty's spirit body is 100% compatible with Your Majesty's original body in the material world. This compatibility allows Your Majesty's original body to have 100% potential in the material world, and your physical attributes will also be top-notch. However, if it's a doppelganger, the compatibility between the spirit body and the doppelganger won't be as high as the original body. According to the compatibility, the doppelganger's physical attributes in the material world will vary. Those with a low compatibility will only be able to display less than 50% of the spirit body's physical attributes. Those with a high compatibility with the doppelganger will be able to achieve about 90% of the spirit body's physical attributes. This is also a flaw of the doppelganger secret technique!"
"Will this compatibility affect the release of the secret technique?"
"No, it will only affect the physical attributes. Not every body can fully display the potential of the spirit body!"
"Then it doesn't matter!" Xia Pingan exhaled deeply. He took a step forward and directly placed his hand on the palm groove of the golden stone tablet. In an instant, all the information of the doppelganger secret technique surged into Xia Pingan's consciousness and merged with his spirit body. In just a moment, Xia Pingan grasped the doppelganger secret technique.
After learning the secret technique, Xia Pingan withdrew his hand, and the golden stone tablet slowly sank into the ground. Xia Pingan's eyes flickered, and he was eager to try.
"Your Majesty, do you want to try the doppelganger technique?" Elder Mu asked.
Xia Pingan nodded.
"Your Majesty has advanced to the Six Sun Realm. There will be a huge change in the secret mandala, and there will be an independent Spirit World God Palace. In the future, if Your Majesty wants to enter the Spirit World and this fortress, you can actually do it in your own Spirit World God Palace!"
"Ah, how do I do it?"
"Are there many empty high platforms in the square of His Majesty's Spiritual Realm Immortal Palace?"
Xia Pingan was shocked. "Yes!"
"Therefore, as long as Your Majesty passes through the arched passage of the Spirit World, the projection of the same arched passage will appear on the platform in the plaza of the Spirit World God Palace. In the future, Your Majesty can quickly enter and exit different Spirit Worlds from your secret mandala."
"I see!" Xia Pingan slapped his forehead. He finally understood why the plaza of his Spirit World God Palace was empty. It turned out that the platforms in the plaza were spatial passages that the Spirit World God Palace had reserved for him to enter and exit different Spirit Worlds. This meant that even if he left Immortal City in the future, he could easily return to the different Spirit Worlds that he had entered before.
… …
Only after a few minutes, Xia Pingan had returned to the Spiritual Realm of the Immortal City through the Golden Arch Gate in the fortress. After that, he returned to the Spiritual Realm of the Immortal City through the Golden Arch Gate in the Spiritual Realm of the Immortal City.
Everything was as Elder Mu had said. When he returned this time, a golden arched door suddenly appeared on a high platform in the square of the Spirit World Shrine. The golden arched door was exactly the same as the one he had used to enter the Spirit World on Earth. The various patterns and stars on the arched door were exactly the same. It was just that the size of the arched door was smaller.
This change greatly excited Xia Pingan.
Xia Pingan then left the secret mandala … …
… …
In the secret chamber, Xia Pingan opened his eyes at once.
If he wanted to use the Doppelganger Technique in the Spiritual Realm, there were conditions. The main body in the Material Realm had to be taken care of first. He had to use the secret technique of the Doppelganger Technique to let the main body enter the Embryonic Breathing Divine Stillness Realm. He had to leave a powerful Soul Power Protective Barrier around the main body to prevent the main body from being taken over by other spirit bodies. Only then could the spirit body enter another body in the Spiritual Realm and create a doppelganger.
When Xia Pingan was preparing to set up a barrier around his body, suddenly, there was a knock on the door and a voice that penetrated through the door outside the secret chamber.
"May I ask if Brother Long lives here … …"
This voice was inexplicably familiar. It was … … Meng Ziqi!
Xia Pingan slightly frowned. 'Why is he here … …'
