Chapter 707: Chapter 353: Exchange with the Doppelganger_2
These three avatars were one with him, so as the owner of the Primordial Spirit, he could freely enter any of the three avatars, replacing them and taking over control of their bodies.
What was more important was that the title panel followed his Primordial Spirit, not the body. Therefore, whenever his original Primordial Spirit inhabited any of the avatars’ bodies, he could use all the title effects. This way, he could ensure absolute security.
Between Dongfang Bubai and the Hua Tuo avatar, Lin Yi chose the latter, namely the Pedestrian A avatar. Although in the Demon race, such an ordinary Human face would attract considerable attention, it at least made moving around easier.
The Hua Tuo avatar was formed from the Golden Nascent Soul in his Middle Dantian, and this Golden Nascent Soul was the embodiment of his Golden Core Dao Fruit, which he called the Golden Human Infant.
This Nascent Soul possessed formidable adaptability. Originally within his own body, it served as the bridge for Elemental exchange between the Yin and Yang Nascent Souls, and it could perhaps adapt to the Demon race’s aura as well.
However, he had no idea where this fellow was now. Although he, the main body, could communicate with the three avatars, it still required being within a certain range.
Lin Yi first tried calling out in his heart, “Hua Tuo Daoist Friend, where are you now? I need to find you.”
He felt that the Hua Tuo avatar should be cultivating in some city within the Human territory, especially after obtaining the title of Emperor of Survival, where he would certainly be staying in a safe place.
After calling out a few times and receiving no response, it indicated that the Hua Tuo avatar was not within the Demon Tribe Territory.
Given the circumstances of following the Path of Survivor, he would naturally not risk venturing into Demon Tribe Territory.
The possibility that Hua Tuo avatar had heard him but intentionally chose not to respond was non-existent.
As the main body, whatever he uttered was considered a command; if the avatar heard him, it would be impossible to refuse to respond.
The Primordial Spirits of the three avatars were differentiated from his own after Refining Void. Being one with him, this also meant they were unified; a Primordial Spirit that split off would not develop a separate will.
Therefore, Lin Yi tried calling out to the Dongfang Bubai avatar. He sensed that Dongfang Bubai was still in Sword Edge Spirit City and hadn’t left. Within this distance, communication was still possible.
If Dongfang Bubai had returned to the Tai Xuan Dao Palace, then the distance would be too far for establishing contact.
“Dongfang Bubai Daoist Friend, can you hear me?”
Very soon, Dongfang Bubai responded, “Master, are you seeking me for matters related to the Demon race?”
Lin Yi smiled. Communicating with his own avatars was convenient since they came from the same Primordial Spirit and were equivalent to himself. Sometimes there was no need to explain his thoughts; these avatars could foresee them in advance.
“Yes, I wish to enter the Demon race under Hua Tuo Daoist Friend’s identity to rescue Xu Yu Rou and Master Golden Sword. I just can’t sense him, and calling out got no response. I would trouble Dongfang Daoist Friend to call out to him, to have him come to the Main Demon-Slaying City.”
“Master’s thoughts are no different from mine. The identity of Hua Tuo Daoist Friend indeed seems more appropriate. Please wait for a moment, I’ll call out on your behalf.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
“Thank you, Daoist Friend,” Lin Yi said with a smile, expressing his gratitude.
After a while, Dongfang Bubai gave a reply, “I have made contact with Hua Tuo Daoist Friend. He is cultivating in a city within the Human region and will teleport to the Main Demon-Slaying City in a few days.”
“Thank you, Dongfang Daoist Friend.” Lin Yi was relieved. As long as he could make it to the Main Demon-Slaying City, within that distance, he would be able to enter his avatar without leaving Big Monster City, using the Eye of Emptiness, along with the Creation Method, and leveraging the connection of their shared Fruit of Dao to directly merge with the avatar.
If he wished, he could at any moment enter Dongfang Bubai’s avatar and take control of the body. However, he would normally not do this as a form of respect for his avatars.
“Master need not be polite. However, Hua Tuo Daoist Friend mentioned that you will be responsible for the expenses of this teleportation,” Dongfang Bubai’s avatar stated calmly.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but show a trace of amusement, chuckling as he scolded, “This Hua Tuo is really carrying on the very essence of my Path of Survivor from the beginning, saving wherever possible. Alright, when the time comes, I will take care of it.”
Currently, in his Jiao Dragon identity, he could use the Human race’s teleportation arrays at will without any fees and Dongfang Bubai’s incarnation, who had become an excellent disciple of the Dao Palace, also had certain teleportation privileges.
Only this Hua Tuo incarnation was an Emperor of Survival, cultivating in a Human race city and probably hiding his cultivation realm to the extreme, a true embodiment of stability just like an old survivor.
Thus, several days passed, and suddenly Lin Yi received a message from the Hua Tuo incarnation through Primordial Spirit Communication, “Master, this is Hua Tuo. I have learned the reason from Eastern Daoist Friend. Do you wish to use my body to rescue Xu Yu Rou and Master Golden Sword from the demons?”
“Yes, Hua Tuo, your identity is the most suitable. Are you willing to help me?” Lin Yi responded in his mind, and out of respect, he certainly needed to ask for the incarnation’s opinion.
“There’s no need for formalities, Master. As part of the same entity, we naturally need to support each other. Just let me know when you want to teleport,” Hua Tuo replied with a chuckle.
“Don’t worry, I’ll pay back double the Spirit Stones for your teleportation,” Lin Yi said with a laugh, obviously hearing the intention of mutual support.
“It’s settled then,” Hua Tuo’s voice seemed to become even happier.
Lin Yi shook his head and smiled. It was no surprise that this incarnation had inherited his Golden Human Infant, bringing with it the breath of mortals, which was also his most precious quality. “However, my main body will require your control for a while. I will arrange everything, and you can just cultivate within the Cave Mansion.”
Although he was in the Refining Void Realm and had divided some of his Primordial Spirit to help control his main body, it probably wouldn’t be as adept as Hua Tuo’s Primordial Spirit, after all, this was a senior Emperor of Survival.
Once an identity was transformed, it would not change, even if his main Primordial Spirit went to other incarnations with the title panel, the identity of the Jiao Dragon would not alter in any way.
Moreover, Hua Tuo had also inherited his Path of Survivor title and could use its effects. Once he entered the main body, he should be able to freely change between Jiao Dragon and human form.
“Alright, everything will be as you say,” Hua Tuo agreed with a nod.
Afterward, they engaged in a thorough exchange of memories through Primordial Spirit Communication, sharing each other’s experiences through the connection.
After receiving the experiences of the Hua Tuo incarnation over the past hundred years or so, Lin Yi couldn’t help but be somewhat moved; this incarnation had really taken the Emperor of Survival’s effect to its limit.
He was now living in a city near Tai Xuan Main City, had even opened an Elixir Shop, hired an assistant, and in his spare time, crafted some pills to sell in the shop, spending most of his time cultivating in a rented Spirit Energy Cave Mansion.
Moreover, the Hua Tuo incarnation had been studying the mysteries of the Golden Human Infant and had also made some considerable progress.
After transferring the memories, Lin Yi cut off the connection with the Hua Tuo incarnation and started preparing for his visit to the Demon Tribe, and since he was going as an incarnation, he wouldn’t be able to take the three types of energies within his body. He would have to rely on the incarnation’s Golden Human Infant to face the enemies.
However, he didn’t plan to stir up any trouble in the Demon race; his sole purpose was to rescue Xu Yu Rou and the others. Hence, the strength of this incarnation was sufficient. Besides, his main body’s Primordial Spirit, armed with the title panel, could predict crises and wield the strength of the Body Fusion Realm with the help of the title’s effects.
First, he explained to Zhi Ling that he was going to go into closed-door cultivation for a while, telling her to also cultivate diligently.
Although Zhi Ling knew some of his secrets, they were just the tip of the iceberg, and she couldn’t be aware of the various titles.
After explaining to Zhi Ling, Lin Yi gathered White Painting and some other Monster Beasts, similarly informing them that he would be in closed-door cultivation for a while and not to be disturbed unless it was urgent.
White Painting and the others also agreed with a cupped fist salute.
Last of all, he went to the Demon Saint Palace and the Serpent Region to explain to the four Demon Ancestors that he would be in closed-door cultivation for a while. Each of the Ancestors stated that they would not disturb him unless there was an urgent matter.
Having completed these tasks, Lin Yi returned to his Cave Mansion, turned the power of the Formation up to its maximum, and prepared to switch bodies with the Hua Tuo incarnation.
