Duke Siluo was silent for a while before he finally nodded his head in agreement.
Even though all these years were just to grant the Queen of Pain a true life, he still had strong and deep feelings for his only daughter. After all, she was his own flesh and blood. Even though he had never expressed his feelings, his heart was filled with worry and longing.
"I owe her too much … She should have had a happy childhood, but I personally implanted all kinds of horrors and experiments into her childhood memories. She must be very afraid." Duke Siluo sighed again. In order to calculate all kinds of important data, the young Cecilia had to undergo his mechanical experiments.
In her memories, most of the days she spent with her father were spent in the mechanical laboratory. She would lie on the cold mechanical table, like those lifeless mechanical creatures that he observed, disassembled, manipulated, and turned into a series of meaningless numbers.
Li Xiang still remembered the first time he saw her. Her body was fused with a large number of mechanical parts, almost making him think that she was a high-level mechanical creature.
Who knew that her original body was human, and the mechanical parts were only implanted later. And all of this was just for Duke Siluo's subsequent experiments!
She was even worse than a tool.
Cecilia split into a new personality. The original innocent and cute personality that did not know anything was forced to become independent. She was able to bear all the pain, and worked hard to become what she thought her father liked.
In the end, Duke Siluo had never put his heart on his daughter.
Cecilia had such a pair of parents. Her life was tragic, just like Ming Xu. They were both victims left behind by the love and hate of the previous generation.
"It's good that you can realize this. As for the apology, the guilt in your heart can only be said in person." Li Xiang shook his head. He could not accept this apology in his sister's place.
"I understand. Thank you, Li Xiang." Duke Siluo nodded and took a deep breath. "Fortunately, she still has you. Please take good care of her in my place."
"I will do my best." Li Xiang smiled bitterly. He had a headache dealing with this sister of his who had a changeable personality. As others grew older, their personality would more or less change, becoming more mature and steady.
Even Xin Yi, that little girl, became obedient.
Only Cecilia seemed to have been frozen at that time. She would always be an innocent young girl, or her alternate personality would appear. She was hot and capable, just like a queen.
No matter which one it was, Li Xiang couldn't deal with it. He felt an incomparable headache.
"Right, you seem to be researching cosmic particles and the new player system?" Duke Siluo suddenly asked.
Li Xiang nodded. The other party was at the peak of Level 9, so it was not surprising that he could see this. Furthermore, Duke Siluo had interacted with Eternal existences before and had made deals with them. He should have a better understanding of this aspect.
"That's good. I can feel that your aura is very close to Level 10, but you haven't broken through yet. You should be stuck at a certain point. I can help you with this." Duke Silo smiled and looked at the Queen of Pain. "She is the only mechanical creature in this universe that has been given real life. She has some authority in the mechanical aspect that even you do not understand."
The Queen of Pain pushed a cup of steaming hot coffee over and chuckled at him.
Li Xiang suddenly understood.
With Duke Siluo's reminder, he finally understood what he was still missing.
He was missing the most crucial key.
After touching the domain of the godly soul and cultivating the embryonic form of the godly soul, he needed to constantly polish and fuse everything about himself again to increase the strength of his godly soul. Only then could he successfully enter Level 10.
The creation and improvement of the godly soul was closely related to his own body. He had already reached the peak in terms of being a player and had successfully fused cosmic particles. In terms of his body and bloodline, other than this physical body, the soul from the other universe and the personality of the Dark Origin were also complete and perfectly fused together. There was no need for further changes. The only thing that needed to be improved was the Polar Night Player Authority that he was most familiar with.
The title of Polar Night Player was different from the others. The Evil Leader, The Fool, Bai King, and Lightless Empress all came from themselves. Polar Night Player actually had a part of the Dark Origin and a part related to machinery.
This was a hybrid Authority. To be precise, the power of the Dark Origin, the two great Authorities of Darkness, and the new Authority of Machinery had combined to form the current Polar Night Player Authority.
In terms of status, he had surpassed the Sanyuan Pillar God, so he had one more step on the road to Level 10.
Originally, after completing the cosmic particles and successfully absorbing other cultivation systems, Li Xiang could use this opportunity to continue forging his godly soul. When his godly soul was strong enough, it would only be a matter of time before he reached Level 10.
After returning, he could clearly feel that Level 10 was within reach, but he had not been able to break through this barrier. Now that he thought about it, what was missing was the Authority of Machinery!
After the Queen of Pain had obtained life, this Authority had become slightly imperfect.
Something had happened that exceeded his authority, and this forced him to grasp and perfect it.
And if he wanted to know the knowledge of giving life to machinery, he had to either get it from Duke Siluo or personally find it from the Queen of Pain.
The former obviously had a contract with an Eternal existence and could not easily reveal the secret. He could only let the Queen of Pain guide Li Xiang.
Li Xiang raised the cup of coffee and drank it in one gulp.
Suddenly, his consciousness became blurry. When he opened his eyes again, there were lakes and blue waves.
All kinds of strange birds were flying in the air.
In one of the lakes, there were stone mountains and forests. Mist rose and curled around it. The Queen of Pain, dressed in casual clothes, was sitting in the small house in the middle of the lake. She was kneeling with her legs crossed, holding a cup of tea in her hand as she looked at him with a smile.
Her eyes were bright, as if countless runes were flying out from them. Upon closer inspection, they returned to normal. She only had a faint smile on her face.
The Queen of Pain waved at Li Xiang, gesturing for him to sit beside her.
Li Xiang nodded slightly. Just as he was about to take a step forward, the world suddenly spun. When he regained his vision, he was already sitting in the small house in the middle of the lake, facing the Queen of Pain. It was just like in Duke Siluo's secret house.
He was puzzled. He lowered his head to look at himself, then at the Queen of Pain.
After drinking that cup of coffee, Li Xiang did not feel any fluctuations of power at any level. He did not know what magic the cup of coffee had to be able to forcefully pull a Level-9 being who was close to Level-10 into this strange space.
He was sure that there were no fluctuations of power of the laws. Logically speaking, if there was a change in the place he was in, it must have used the power of the laws of time and space. Even if it was the Divine Bell, as long as there was a slight change in her aura, he would be able to sense it.
This was the difference in power, the difference in realms.
But here, the same thing happened again. He still could not sense it and could not resist it.
Could it be that the Queen of Pain was at a higher level than him? She had to be at least an Eternal existence, right?
Li Xiang could not understand. This was obviously impossible. The other party was only a man-made mechanical life. If not for the support of an Eternal existence secret technique, she would not have been able to truly transform. This was definitely not her own power.
"This is the Dream Space, or rather, the Mind Island." The Queen of Pain explained with a smile. The moment she opened her mouth, she solved the core of his doubts. "It belongs to me alone."
"I see!" Li Xiang suddenly understood. Only another person's soul could do whatever they wanted to others. He had been cultivating for so long, and his body was invincible. He even jumped out of the shackles of the players and went further. The only loophole was the God's Soul and everything related to it.
The soul was obviously a part of the God's Soul.
The world of the soul was mysterious and full of all kinds of strange things. There were records in the vast history of mankind, but they were always vague and difficult to touch on the root.
Now, the general understanding of living creatures was that they had a physical body and a soul. The former highlighted the materiality, while the latter gave vitality. The soul was also called the soul, the primordial spirit, and so on during the Blue Planet era. It was the amalgamation of a person's essence, energy, and spirit.
As long as one stepped into the realm of a player, the soul would undergo certain changes. When the physical body decayed and died, the soul would return to the Land of Eternity and enter the long river of history and life. Perhaps it would return to the universe after billions of years.
Eternal existences controlled the Soul Power of the soul, and the Sanyuan Pillar Gods even had the mysterious secret technique of creating life and resurrecting the dead. After all, their level of life and understanding of the laws of the universe were far beyond other living creatures. Standing in a higher dimension, they naturally had a broader vision.
In the past, a part of the Soul Power Control Authority of the Dark Origin spread to the Seven Continents, allowing the player Lighthouse to stand out and create the concept of the Lighthouse and the New World. Thinking about it this way, the Dark Origin seemed to have long known that a new personality would be born to replace itself. It had planned this many years ago!
And with the improvement of the realm, players could begin to train their soul and shape their God's Soul. It was only after entering the realm of the God's Soul that they could truly touch the Soul Power. This was the power of the origin of all living creatures, the opposite of the physical universe's particles.
It could be understood as Yin and Yang, light and darkness. They were also the two sides of the Perfect Law.
Unfortunately, Li Xiang had never come into contact with the concept of the Mind World. Naturally, he could not obtain its essence and was always groping outside the door.
"Everyone has a Mind Island. As the God's Soul becomes stronger, the Mind Island will slowly expand into a world. I'm not strong enough, but Level Nine and above can already have a Mind Island as vast as a city. Level Ten can even materialize it. The true Eternal existences all have their own Mind Worlds."
The Queen of Pain explained.
"The Mind Islands are all interconnected. You can reach anyone's Mind Island from here, but other people's Mind Islands are very dangerous. They are filled with all kinds of laws formed by their own subconscious. Ordinary people are no different from ordinary people in the Mind World. If you enter the Mind Island of the Creator as an ordinary person, you can imagine the outcome. However, the minimum qualification to enter this area is Level Ten. Other realms can't come here at all, let alone know the concept of the Mind World's real existence. "
The Mind Worlds of Level Ten were already huge and could be materialized. Needless to say, they had great control. They could enter and leave freely, and they could also connect with others through their Mind Worlds and invade!
Seeing that Li Xiang understood what she meant, the Queen of Pain continued. "I'm a mechanical being.
"My essence is a lifeless mechanical creature. Even though Xiluo has given me everything that a human should have, without a soul body, I am not alive. And the creation of a soul body must rely on the existence of an eternal existence or higher, because they control the origin of soul power. The so-called soul power is the power of the soul, the power of the soul. Everyone has different attributes, and there is only one attribute. Whether you cultivate or not, you have soul power, but you cannot sense it or use it. It will spontaneously gather in the eternal land. Even so, the eternal existences can only use their own soul power system, and only their designated kin and adored are qualified to enjoy a certain amount of power."
Li Xiang remembered that when he was in the Land of Eternity, there were chaotic and disorderly rules of power all around him. It was completely different from the Source Particles. It turned out that they were the Soul Power of the entire universe. All living beings gathered there. It would be strange if they were not chaotic.
"The Sanyuan Pillar God can use all Soul Power systems."
The Queen of Pain added.
Duke Xiluo had signed a contract with an Eternal Existence, which allowed him to control a certain amount of Soul Power and instilled it into the Queen of Pain's body. But that was not enough. He needed an opportunity, a key to awaken her consciousness!
Without a doubt, that key was Li Xiang.
"The first thing I saw when I woke up was you. I was very happy." She said with a smile, her eyes gentle. Although she had the face of a young Bai Lili, her unique mechanical style and unconcealable emotional fluctuations made Li Xiang feel that she was more like his mother.
"At first, I was very confused and couldn't accept all of this. I was just a life created. I had no past, no present, and no future. I only had you. I didn't know where I should go or what the meaning of my existence was. I kept thinking, but there was no result. The one who really gave me life was you. Your every move and emotional fluctuations infected me. Although we were separated by countless worlds, I could always feel your joy and sorrow. "
The Queen of Pain said softly. It was Li Xiang's emotions that made her more alive.
Duke Xiluo gave her a body, that Eternal Existence gave her a soul, and Li Xiang gave her the key to awakening.
"Because I'm such a special form of existence, I don't seem to be restricted from entering and exiting the mind world. I can also pull people into my world, but that's too dangerous, whether it's to others or to myself. Before you, only Xiluo had entered." She said as she poured Li Xiang a cup of tea. "Here, you can do whatever you want without any worries. I can simulate it, and you can use it to cultivate your Soul Power and truly open the door to the mind world."
Li Xiang smiled. "Does this count as using a bug? Are we cheating? "
"Maybe …" The Queen of Pain shook her head and then nodded. "All the gifts of fate have a price. I don't think that Eternal Existence would leave such a loophole behind."
Li Xiang's smile slowly disappeared. He was silent. Indeed, he didn't let Duke Xiluo tell the truth and used the Queen of Pain's hand to help him. They seemed to be allies, but he didn't tell him the price of Duke Xiluo becoming his minion. There was something fishy about this.
Regarding this, the Queen of Pain obviously couldn't say much.
"Then let's begin." Li Xiang didn't think too much about it. Time was of the essence now.
"What should I do?" The Queen of Pain tilted her head.
"First, simulate a temple for me. As long as I want it, can you simulate it?"
"Yes."
Under Li Xiang's instructions, he quickly gained the same power as he had in the outside world and turned back into a Polar night player. This made him even more afraid of the omnipotence of the mind world.
Then, the same godly palace appeared.
