Chapter 713 Cutting Myself, Making A New Me (seeking monthly ticket)
In the black rain, Su Nian's figure was surrounded by undead warriors.
The depleted body struggled several times to resist, but was pinned to the ground by the undead warriors around him, and sharp sickle-shaped weapons slashed at Su Nian's body.
During the days at Shuo Death Field, Su Nian's body was severely eroded.
The Blood God's body did not last long in the fierce siege before it collapsed prematurely, and blood poured into Su Nian's body.
Then a jet-black sickle-shaped weapon suddenly fell down, cutting Su Nian's body in half.
Next came the head, limbs... Su Nian's body was divided in the fierce offensive.
After doing all this, the burly figure at the head dispersed the undead warriors that were still surrounding him, squatted in front of the dead Su Nian and began to check on Su Nian's condition.
After checking for a long time and finding nothing, the burly figure couldn't help but frown.
It stood up at this moment, glanced around, and finally locked on the trembling Gulu lying at the entrance of the slave prison cave not far away, and then said in a distant voice with cold eyes:
"Slave, come here to collect the body and remember to drain the blood from his body."
After saying that, without waiting for Gulu to answer, the burly figure put away the sickle-shaped jet black weapon and left with the army of undead warriors without looking back.
Gulu stood up at this moment, tremblingly came to the body of Su Nian who died in the battle, and started busy in a hurry.
Holding Su Nian's body in his hands, Gulu's tears were covered by the heavy rain.
Returning to the slave prison, Gulu began to piece together Su Nian's torn body with trembling hands. At this moment, he felt extremely confused.
Su Nian is his teacher and his spiritual mentor.
During the days of studying with Su Nian, he had already developed feelings and dependence on Su Nian.
Just like a child's dependence on his parents, the moment he saw Su Nian die in battle, he felt like his sky was falling.
After putting Su Nian's body together, Gulu lay on Su Nian's remains and cried loudly.
The moment he really lost Su Nian, he realized that the cowardice in his heart had not disappeared, but the appearance of Su Nian gave him the determination to face future challenges.
Now that Su Nian is dead, he finds that his strength seems to have been drained from his body in an instant, and he doesn't know how to go on in the future.
Coward, loser, slave...Gulu punched the ground and kept scolding himself.
After a long time, Gulu ignited the blood flame.
The flames spread along his palms to Su Nian's flesh and blood, and Su Nian's remains burned fiercely in the bloody flames.
The firelight reflected the confusion on Gulu's face.
After burning Su Nian until the ashes were gone, Gulu carefully held Su Nian's ashes in his hands, but his eyes became more and more confused.
He found that his courage was completely dependent on the birth of Su Nian. Without Su Nian, he would still be the useless slave who had achieved nothing, unable to muster the courage to continue to resist, and felt extremely confused about the future.
Thinking of his promise to Su Nian, Gulu hated himself extremely.
Waste! Waste! Waste!
Amid the scoldings, Gulu couldn't help crying again.
"Teacher, I will definitely succeed, I will definitely do it."
Putting Su Nian's ashes into the space bracelet buried in the corner, Gulu came to the center of the blood slave prison, sat down cross-legged and started the flesh and blood sacrifice technique.
In the days that followed, Gulu began to accumulate the strength to resist.
But the confusion in my heart never dissipated.
He mustered up the courage countless times, but in the end he was defeated by his cowardly self.
Only then did Gulu realize that the ideological seal in his mind had not been broken at all. The courage given by Su Nian suppressed the fear in his heart.
Su Nian's death caused the cowardice in his heart to grow like a demon, eroding his fighting spirit.
While struggling with his thoughts, Gulu thought of Fengqi, the god of faith. Su Nian had told him countless times that Fengqi could give him the power to change himself.
He firmly believed in this.
Every day from now on, Gulu will spare time to worship the statue of Fengqi's faith, and then enter the faith space database to find the answer to becoming stronger.
On this day, Guru was browsing information in the faith database as usual.
At this time, an article came into view.
[Behead yourself (theoretical technique)]
The founder of the practice: Lin Ran.
The effect of the exercise: destroy the old self and create a new self. I am still me, a different me.
Founder's note: Don't practice. This is just my tentative and innovative method. If you practice it, big things may happen. This method is not as reliable as spiritual immortality.
A detailed description:……
…
This is a theoretical exercise that has not been fully developed.
According to the description of the exercise, it can change one's own personality so that one can have the personality one wants.
Seeing the description of the exercise, Gulu was like a drowning man grasping for life-saving straws, ignoring the note that clearly stated that the exercise was not perfect.
The important thing is that this is a pure spiritual cultivation method. Even if he is not a human being, he can practice it.
In the days that followed, Gulu began to practice "Beheading Self" through meditation.
According to the description of the exercise, he would imagine a courageous self every day and angrily denounce his own cowardice.
This fictional self becomes more real during meditation practice.
Another fictitious spiritual self is Gulu's best fantasy about himself.
He was just like what Su Nian saw in his future, full of courage and fearlessness, daring to resist the unfairness of fate, daring to change himself, and risking his life to move forward.
Time passes.
A few years later, Gulu discovered that his true self was getting weaker and weaker, and his other secondary personality became more and more real.
Gulu found that he often couldn't tell which one was his real self.
With the growth of another spiritual consciousness, he felt as if he was schizophrenic and often talked to himself, as if two selves were having a conversation.
At this time, the blood slave prison.
Gulu said to himself with a distorted expression:
"Trash, it's time to practice. Don't waste time in useless sorrow. Don't forget the teacher's expectations for you."
"I will practice right now."
Amidst the scolding of the other me, Gulu muttered to himself, then sat cross-legged and began to operate the flesh and blood sacrifice technique.
Now that the other me is extremely perfect, Gulu finds that he is gradually losing control of his body.
But in Gulu's eyes, this is the result he wants.
The cowardice and humbleness of my current self have been imprinted in my bones, and the other me is the most perfect self in his eyes.
As he continued to practice according to the description of the technique, Gulu knew that he would eventually take the final step.
Cut yourself off and build a new self.
At this point, the dove takes over the magpie's nest, and the sub-personality will completely become the master of this body. The current self will be completely cut off and become the nourishment of the new self-consciousness.
The founder, Lin Ran, developed this technique and was inspired by ancient myths and stories of the human race.
A training mode called killing three corpses.
On this basis, Lin Ran developed the idea of developing exercises to build a new self.
Gulu understands that if he does this, his true self will eventually disappear.
But giving up his enslaved and cowardly self is exactly the future he wants.
When the new self is successfully created, the years of being a slave in his memory will no longer be the pain that cannot be erased from his heart, let alone the inner demons that plague his growth, but will only become a spur on the growth of the "new self"
and motivation.
Thinking of this, Gulu was extremely excited.
He also once asked himself, after cutting off the old self, will that kind of me still be me?
But after thinking about this question carefully, Gulu felt that the answer was not important. What was important was that it was what Su Nian expected of him.
Time passes quickly during practice.
After a long time, Gulu stood up and began to harvest blood.
After completing the task, he gathered all his energy and blood, turned into a skinny appearance, and walked out of the slave cave with one leg.
After delivering the harvested blood to the cave where his master lived, Gulu crawled at the entrance of the cave where he lived, looking at the tribesmen walking around the city and thinking about his thoughts.
The teacher taught him a lot of things.
Among them is how to become a good leader.
Pure force cannot solve many problems, especially when he succeeds in his struggle, he will have to face the reshaping of his race.
That is a more challenging problem than becoming stronger.
When the teacher was still there, whenever he encountered a question that he couldn't understand, he would always ask the teacher, and the teacher would always give him an answer.
But the teacher is gone, and he has to find answers to many questions by himself.
Fortunately, there is a faith database.
This is the treasure house in Guru's eyes, which can answer all his doubts.
In the following years, in addition to harvesting flesh and blood and practicing cultivation, Gulu also learned how to find information for self-study.
The cowardice in his heart never faded, but he always kept the teacher's expectations in mind and refused to give up.
This made Gulu feel extremely disgusted with himself now.
The sub-personality became more and more solidified under the influence of his meditation practice. This was Gulu's new way to break the steel seal of his thoughts.
The memory of being a slave is like a cage, binding him tightly.
He once thought he had escaped from this ideological prison, but it was only after he lost his teacher that he realized that he had only seen a different world through his teacher's eyes and understood many truths.
After losing his teacher, he found himself still in prison without moving an inch.
So he wants to create a new me.
A new self is born outside the prison.
…
Years go by.
As the consciousness of his new self became more and more perfect, Gulu found that he would occasionally lose control of his body.
The new personality is trying to control his body.
Gulu did not resist and looked forward to the further growth of the new me.
At this time, Gulu is like a father, hoping that his children can realize the dreams that they want to achieve but cannot reach at all.
The time for the new self to control the body gradually extends during cultivation.
The new me has all his memories, but his behavior is completely different from mine.
Whenever the new self controls the body, it will always clearly implement its own goals, either studying or practicing.
His strength also grew rapidly during this period.
The birth of the new self made his cultivation and learning efficiency more efficient. Gulu found that the new self was smarter and more efficient than him.
Another half year passed.
Gulu discovered the new me and gave birth to a brand new idea.
The new self-consciousness wants to change the status quo and gain a faster cultivation speed.
He is no longer satisfied with practicing by stealing food.
The new me sets my sights on the undead warriors wandering outside and regards them as nutrients for my growth.
This is where the hunt begins.
That day, it was raining heavily outside.
Gulu, who was sitting cross-legged in the blood slave cave, opened his eyes.
At this moment, my new self-consciousness took over control of Gulu's body, stood up and walked out of the Blood Slave Cave.
Come outside the cave.
The black rain soaked Gulu's body. Under the control of his new self-consciousness, Gulu glanced around and began to look for hunting targets.
His eyes finally locked on the undead warriors patrolling the city who were walking slowly from a distance.
There are five of them in total.
The new self's conscious gaze then swept not far away, and began to observe whether there were other undead warriors nearby.
After confirming that there were no other figures nearby except the five undead patrol warriors, the murderous intention surged in my new self's consciousness.
When the patrolling undead warrior came to him, he couldn't help but frown when he saw Gulu standing at the entrance of the cave:
"Slave, kneel down."
When meeting the upper class, Gulu, as a slave of the lower class, needs to kneel down and cannot look directly at the undead souls of the upper class. This is part of the strict class rules of the Shuode clan.
Facing the scolding, Gulu slowly squatted down under the control of his new self-consciousness.
At this moment, Gulu's body surface ignited with flames of energy and blood, and his crouched and tense body was like a sharp arrow ready to go, suddenly shooting towards the leader of the undead warriors.
His right arm, which was dyed red by the blood, suddenly passed across the neck of the leader of the undead warrior, and then his left hand stabbed into its chest, taking out the black crystal of death, killing him in a flash.
When the remaining four undead warriors realized something was wrong and wanted to take action, Gulu, under the control of his new self's consciousness, took action again, striking out with both arms at the same time, grabbing the two undead warriors' necks and breaking their necks.
Then he quickly withdrew his hands, pierced their chests again, and pulled out the death energy crystals, cutting off the vitality in their bodies.
The other two undead warriors suddenly realized that their strength was no match for Gollum.
They turned decisively and tried to escape.
Gulu, who was under the control of his new self-consciousness, raised his right hand at this time, and the light of faith appeared between his eyebrows. The talent ability "Ghost Chain" was poured into his body at this time, and condensed into an illusory talent bead in his body, and then Gulu's palm appeared.
An energized blue chain was wrapped around his arm.
He grabbed his right arm forward, and the chain immediately swept forward automatically. As it moved forward, it split into two ghost chains and wrapped around the waists of the escaping undead warriors, pulling them back.
His arms were ready to strike again.
Jam! Jam!
There was a crisp sound of bones breaking, and the two undead warriors had their necks broken at the same time, and then Gulu took out the death energy crystals from their bodies.
After doing all this, Gulu dragged five undead warriors and threw them into the blood slave cave, then returned to the surface and began to clean up the traces of the battle.
In the black rain, Gulu was running the flesh and blood sacrifice technique, sucking the dead blood remaining on the ground into his body.
After confirming that there were no traces, Gulu turned around and returned to the Blood Slave Cave, where he began to refine five undead warriors and destroy the corpses to eliminate traces.
…
In the days to come.
Whenever the black rain pours, the new self-consciousness will start a bloody hunt.
The new me is extremely strong-willed and completely different from the current Guru.
Gulu clearly remembered that the target of his first hunting was the heir of his master. Before that hunting started, he was struggling in his heart. Even though he had the ability to easily kill the heir, he still felt extremely scared.
After plucking up the courage several times, he gritted his teeth and completed the hunt.
After the hunt was completed, he felt hesitant in his heart and endured the discomfort before completing the refining process and absorbing the successor's death energy core.
But the new self-consciousness is different.
The hunting of the new self-consciousness is like art, dormant, waiting, and then kill with one blow.
The new me after killing the prey will not have any fear, which makes Gollum understand that this is the new personality he is looking forward to.
Only this kind of self can have the ability to fulfill the teacher's expectations.
In terms of the use of abilities, the new self has an understanding that he cannot match.
Switching between talents and abilities during hunting is very smooth, as if he is a born shadow killer. Once he has an idea, he will execute it without any hesitation.
By hunting the upper-class undead, the growth rate of Gulu Land is greatly increased.
During this period, Gulu did not forget the teacher's other five disciples.
The teacher is dead, and they regard themselves as their spiritual leader. As long as he does not fall, they will not fall.
The new self-awareness began to teach the other five fellow travelers, teaching them how to make themselves stronger through hunting.
Time flies like an arrow.
The new self-consciousness has occupied the body for longer and longer, and it has become more and more proficient. Gulu's main personality has gradually become a bystander.
But Gulu knew that this was not the end of the practice of "Beheading Self".
His existence cannot allow the new self-consciousness to exert its true power.
The two personalities are interfering with each other, and the new self's consciousness will occasionally experience inexplicable difficulties when controlling the body.
Whenever the new self hunts, the fear born in his mind will affect the execution efficiency of the new self.
It's like dragging a boulder to run, and every step forward will be resisted by the boulder.
This made Gulu understand that it was time for him to take the final step of "killing himself".
He is a burden now and should not continue to exist.
On this day, Guru did not release his new self-consciousness.
After completing his master's mission, he returned to the Blood Slave Cave.
He took out the jar containing Su Nian's ashes from his space bracelet, knelt down on the ground and kept prostrating.
The moment he lost his teacher, he realized what his teacher meant to him.
The experience of getting along with the teacher was treasured in the deepest part of his memory. It was the happiest time in his heart.
Every time I think about it in my dream, I smile unconsciously.
At that time, he was an ignorant slave. An unexpected encounter opened the door to his growth.
Every time I think of my teacher, images from the past will appear in Gulu's mind.
At that time, it was pouring black rain outside, and the sound of rain came into the cave. He sat on the ground and listened to the teacher's teachings.
In the story, there is the struggle of the human leader Feng Qi who is unwilling to give in to the predetermined fate, the heroic spirit of the God of War Ye Huangmian to turn the tide in the desperate years of domain invasion, Wei Wei who hides in the underground world day and night to save the future of the human race, and Mu.
Qing, Lu Yue, Zhang Daowen, etc.
Whenever we talk about the stories of human heroes, the teacher's eyes always shine with light, which is the light of faith.
These characters made Gulu's blood boil, and he also understood what a hero is.
They are like a flag, leading future generations to move forward firmly.
This is what the teacher said, after the fire of faith is ignited, the inheritance of the will of dawn will never fade.
The fire of faith that belonged to Su Nian has now been handed over to him.
Memories are like a knife. Gulu's eyes are filled with tears at this moment.
"Teacher, I miss you."
Su Nian's voice and smile appeared in his mind, and Gulu's eyes became firmer.
"The other me, you will inherit the teacher's fire of faith from now on. I look forward to your future performance. Don't let me down, let alone the teacher."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gulu opened his hands, then lowered his head and knocked heavily on Su Nian's urn.
The sword at the level of consciousness was also slashed at this moment, cutting through the sea of consciousness and completely cutting into pieces Gulu's personality.
The new self's consciousness emerged at this time, swallowing the fragments of Guru's consciousness, and blending with the physical body.
When Gulu opened his eyes again.
The cowardice in his eyes dissipated, and the shackles of the steel seal that restrained Gulu completely collapsed at this moment, and a new Gulu was reborn from the ashes.
"I will."
Gulu murmured softly, as if responding to the owner's expectations before his personality dissipated, and then kowtowed to Su Nian's ashes again.
