His nostrils could no longer smell. He wanted to close his mouth, but he realized that his lips were gone and his tongue was quickly disintegrating.
Not long after, Garon could no longer feel anything. His sight, hearing, touch, smell, taste, and even pain were gone.
Originally, he wanted to help Andrela, but he did not expect that he could not even protect himself now. The power of Mother Stream was so strong that even he could only hold on for a little while.
It was as if he was floating in the endless darkness. There was nothing around him and he could not feel anything. It was like the space where the Nine-Headed Dragon Totem existed, the dark space.
Garon knew that this was the space of his soul's mind. He guessed that his body might have completely disintegrated and disappeared, leaving only his soul.
The power of the Living Secret Technique was also completely dissolved under the power of Mother Stream. But that seed, the soul seed of the Northern Trident Frost-Fire True Water Evil Technique, was still floating in front of Garon with the protection of his soul, undamaged.
In the dark soul space, this seed was a faint blue light spot, quietly floating in the center, emitting a faint blue light.
After an unknown amount of time, Garon could only observe the soul seed to pass the time.
Maybe it was a month, two months, a year, two years.
He could not remember clearly even if he counted. He counted for hundreds of millions of seconds, but sometimes he would suddenly forget where he had counted to, and then he would start from a round number again, and so on and so on.
But during this time, he confirmed a key point.
That was, his soul did have the ability to resist the disintegration of Mother Stream, or rather, to resist the huge erosion of time travel.
His body had been disintegrated for an unknown amount of time, but his soul did not show any signs of damage. Although the power of the Living Secret Technique's body had been completely disintegrated, the soul seed was still there.
The upper limit of the soul that was increased by the Cthulhu's Origin was still there, and all the power related to the soul was still there.
The soul seed not only contained the seed of the Living Secret Technique, but after being absorbed by Garon, it gradually became the seed of his own martial arts. His Living Secret Technique's power was only half, and the power in the seed was the foundation of the Living Secret Technique.
Under the disintegration of the Mother Stream, the physical body completely disappeared. Garon controlled the soul seed of the Frost-Fire True Water Evil Technique to retract most of its power into the depths of the soul, building layers upon layers of defense on the periphery.
He didn't know how to seal it. He simply wrapped the seed in layers of energy as a form of defense. Although he was protected by his soul for the time being, it was still good to be prepared.
He noticed that the Living Secret Technique seed seemed to be slowly changing as time passed. It seemed to be getting more and more condensed, smaller and brighter. Compared to the power of the physical body, the power of the Soul Seed was not a physical energy. Instead, it had to go through the physical body to affect matter. All the parts that could directly affect matter had been washed away by the Mother Stream.
Only this part of nothingness could remain.
Garon called this power Soul Force. Through his analysis and observation, he found that although soul power could not directly affect matter, it could affect and modify the body through things like neurons, and then use the body to modify matter. Other than that, the Soul Seed seemed to have an unusual function, but Garon had yet to discover any deeper secrets.
Regarding the exploration of the soul, even if he had exchanged some information from the Cthulhu King, he was still far from being a weak ant.
In fact, if a living being didn't have a soul or consciousness, it was just a combination of various elements.
Soul Force was like a combination of pure consciousness, memory, and spirit. It was a very strange way of existence.
However, as time passed, Garon could vaguely feel that his soul seemed to be weakening.
Without the support of the physical body, no matter how strong the soul was, it was like a rootless duckweed. It gradually began to weaken.
"How much time has passed?"
His consciousness floated in the darkness. There was nothing around him, only darkness.
In the middle of the darkness, the Soul Seed was still emitting a mesmerizing blue halo, as if it was the most beautiful crystal and gemstone.
All of a sudden, he seemed to feel some kind of vibration.
It was a sound!
Unbeknownst to him in the outside world, in the dark green waters of the Mother Stream, the Coordinate Silver Ring was originally not pure enough. Now that it had been soaked in the Mother Stream for a long time, a crack finally appeared on it with a cracking sound. The direction that was originally clear suddenly became crooked and flowed towards an unknown direction.
Garon's soul turned into a ball of red light, and was also washed along the river to an unknown direction.
*****
Garon seemed to hear something, as if someone was talking.
The voice seemed to be separated by a layer of membrane, hazy and unclear. The language used was not something he was familiar with, it sounded like German, but lighter.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to have regained his senses.
His hearing and touch returned, but his vision and smell were still the same.
He felt as if he was curled up in a small space. His surroundings were warm, as if he was soaked in water. He could also feel a young and strong heartbeat close to him.
Time passed by slowly.
His senses became clearer, and he began to notice an interesting phenomenon — — he seemed to have shrunk.
Or rather, not shrunk, but turned into an embryonic state.
He still couldn't open his eyes, but the oxygen he needed came from his navel, and he breathed through his stomach. This state made Garon unusually interested.
Through all the information in his senses, he knew that his special soul talent had reincarnated again. He might have completely turned into a baby, a baby that was still in his mother's womb.
Outside the womb, there was a man's voice, a woman's voice, and a little boy's voice from time to time. Sometimes he would shout, and although he couldn't understand what he was saying, he could feel his excitement from it.
Garon curled up his body, and quietly began to adjust his blood in his mother's womb. The baby's blood began to follow the route of the Frost-Fire True Water Evil Technique, and under the influence of his soul, it slowly moved in an extremely precise and complicated way.
His body that had once mastered the Secret Technique had been completely dissolved, and now that this body had just begun to grow, it naturally had to be strengthened as soon as possible.
The baby's body was abnormally weak, but fortunately, the Living Secret Technique had an extremely strong restorative effect, and could instead accelerate the growth of the body.
But what made Garon a little confused was, the Northern Trident Frost-Fire True Water Evil Technique, this extremely powerful Living Secret Technique, what was its specific source of energy?
Normal Secret Techniques would turn food into blood, and then refine the blood to strengthen oneself. But the Living Secret Technique seemed to be different, it seemed to build a complete and extremely complicated system in the body of a living being, and also seemed to be countless complex runes, patterns, or three-dimensional structures.
These structures were naturally formed through the accumulation of the practitioner's daily practice, and when there was only one pattern, it had no effect or meaning, but when there were enough of them, it would produce some kind of mysterious effect.
This time, Garon began to use his soul to observe the transformation process of the Living Secret Technique in the body during the gestation period, step by step, and it was extremely clear. The body's structure was still relatively simple, and many organs had not fully developed, so logically speaking, this should be the best time to observe the Living Secret Technique, but even so, Garon's powerful soul actually felt tired halfway through the observation, that dense and complicated Living Secret Technique's blood vessels, endocrine, and various other effects and changes, even he felt an incomparable headache.
The special effect of the Living Secret Technique at the beginning was very weak, and this effect was not even easy to detect at the beginning, it was just a simple effect on the blood flow. But as time passed, perhaps more than a month later, Garon felt that something was different.
Under this effect, his body gradually changed a little bit.
This little change leaned towards the direction of the Living Secret Technique, causing the body to become more suitable for the Living Secret Technique's ability, and in turn, strengthen the effect. Then, the effect sped up the transformation of the body, and the transformed body in turn strengthened this effect.
This mutual promotion became bigger and faster.
"No wonder the Living Secret Technique is called a seed, so it really is like a seed, at the beginning it only has a little effect, and then it slowly becomes bigger and stronger." Garon seemed to have understood something.
But the initial question was still incomprehensible to him. Where did the energy of the Living Secret Technique come from?
He observed carefully, in the process of the baby's body operating the Living Secret Technique, it seemed to produce some kind of special power out of thin air.
It was as if someone took a pen and paper and drew a bunch of complicated non-repeating symbols and patterns, then these patterns increased to a terrifying degree, and suddenly a special weak power appeared, this power was weak at the beginning, but in turn, it would affect the pattern, causing it to become more powerful.
This seemingly absurd result was indeed what Garon observed.
The Living Secret Technique was like this, this influence power came inexplicably, as if it appeared out of nowhere, completely defying the law of conservation of energy.
His baby's body also gradually became stronger under this change, and more and more showed the best state of compatibility with the Living Secret Technique.
Finally, the long-awaited day had finally arrived.
Garon suddenly felt that his body was being squeezed out by a force, and there seemed to be words of encouragement coming from outside, as well as the painful cries of a woman.
The squeezing force was getting bigger and stronger.
It was as if his whole body was being squeezed, moving along a narrow elastic channel, moving in a direction.
He knew that he was about to be born.
Garon had a complicated feeling in his heart, he had lived for three lifetimes, but now he was once again born in the womb of a strange woman, and this woman once again gave him a body, and gave him a new life.
