Chapter 299: Five Elements
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
The deep autumn fog was thick, and the cold wind was bleak.
In another reed marsh, another lantern shone brightly.
Inside the cabin, a person sat alone, ignoring the corpse beside him, muttering to himself in his heart.
“Indeed, my avatar is still my avatar!”
“And this attribute panel, skill traits…”
Name: Xu Yang
Lifespan: 28/100
Cultivation: None
Skills: None
Talent: Five Elements Spiritual Root (Yellow Tier, Lower Quality)
Whether it’s the Second Nascent Soul method or the Yang God Spirit Divorce Method, these kinds of avatar methods all have one issue, which is the connection and control between the original body and the avatar.
This is also the main reason for the Second Nascent Soul’s rebellion or the avatar’s backlash against the original body.
What connects the original body and the avatar, can this connection be affected by external forces, cut off, or even altered?
As for other methods, Xu Yang didn’t know, but when it came to the “Yang God Spirit Divorce and Splitting Method” he created, the connection between the original body and the avatar relied entirely on the power of the Daoist Yang God to maintain.
However, the Yang God is not omnipotent. Once the distance is too great or external forces intervene, the connection between the original body and the avatar can be severed just the same.
Once the connection is severed, the original body cannot control the avatar, nor is it clear on the avatar’s condition, only when the avatar returns and reconnects with the original body to share memory information, can it learn of the avatar’s experiences.
This allows for room to maneuver, and the possibility for betrayal.
Most “Division methods” have this flaw and there is no way to remedy it. The Yang God Spirit Divorce Method created by Xu Yang is no exception.
Given this, the problem arises.
Deploying an avatar is for reconnaissance, but with the interval of a world, the connection between the original body and the avatar will surely be interrupted. After gathering intelligence, how can it be communicated back?
Re-Breaking the Realm for Ascension, returning to the World of Dao and Law?
That’s clearly not realistic.
Therefore, the problem with avatars is significant.
But for Xu Yang, these problems, these risks, they do not exist.
Because he has the attribute panel, skill traits.
Zhuanzhou Mengdie, Divine Travel Through Worlds!
My avatar is still my avatar!
The world may sever the connection between the “Taoism Origin Body” and the Yang God avatar, but it cannot sever the dream butterfly connection between the “real self” and other avatars. As long as the Yang God avatar is connected to the real self, it is essentially connected to the Taoism Origin Body.
Therefore, for Xu Yang, issues like distance and the hidden dangers of avatar methods simply do not exist.
He has absolute control over his avatars. Or to be precise, each avatar is him, differing only as the left hand differs from the right hand, the left foot from the right foot; there’s no other self, no possibility of another Xu Yang.
Beyond the issue of connection and control, the avatar even inherits his attribute panel.
This surprises Xu Yang, but he quickly comes to terms with it.
The attribute panel, skill traits, as his greatest secret and the foundation of his cultivation, exhibit and possess capabilities that are profoundly mysterious. Even now, Xu Yang dares not claim to have truly unearthed its power.
This mighty “cheat” remains shrouded in a layer of mystery, and with his current abilities, he cannot unveil it.
Since he cannot unveil it, he lets it be!
Therefore, Xu Yang currently does not fret about the origin of the attribute panel, nor does he contemplate any plots behind it. He focuses on using this “cheat” to strengthen himself, at most conducting a bit of research and observation.
His research has made a little progress now.
The standard of inheritance for this attribute panel seems to be not the number of avatars, but the number of worlds.
Zhuanzhou Mengdie, Divine Travel Through Worlds, every avatar in each world can inherit the attribute panel.
But in one world, there can only be one such avatar, one such attribute panel existing.
Therefore, previously in the World of Dao and Law, when the Daoism Origin Body cultivated the Yang God avatar, the Yang God avatar did not receive an attribute panel until it was dispatched and entered this world, whereupon it acquired a brand-new attribute panel.
One world, one panel?
Is the attribute panel related to the power of the world?
What drives it, why does it exist?
With too little information, it’s difficult to conclude; such a guess is already the limit.
Without a clue, Xu Yang doesn’t dwell on it, after all, one must live in the present.
There are many issues at hand, and Xu Yang has made clear plans.
First, the main task of the Yang God avatar—reconnaissance!
But being a scout is not so easy; you must have sufficient strength to access relevant information.
Therefore, enhancing strength and developing power is still an unavoidable procedure.
Having experienced several worlds, there is already a template for power development.
The Great Zhou’s villagers, bandits, sects, the path of martial world supremacy.
The Great Tang’s officials, medical centers, guilds, the path of dynastic unification.
The Blackwater’s Green Fish, transforming into dragons, Earth Deities, the path of alien beast evolution.
And there’s the World of Dao and Law’s cautious advances, from Guo Bei Academy to Wandao School of enlightenment.
All these can serve as templates.
Which to choose?
It’s not yet certain.
Whether it’s in dealing with people or conducting affairs, one cannot rigidly adhere to a fixed pattern; it is essential to take actual conditions into account and adapt accordingly.
This is not Great Zhou, nor is it Great Tang, but a world of demons.
The entities from which he extracted Demonic Qi initially were at least of the Deity Transformation demon head level.
The presence of such demons indicates that the upper limit of power in this world is very high, and acting recklessly could easily trigger a chain reaction—he could capsize at any moment.
This is a Yang God avatar, not a dream butterfly avatar; death here means no second chances, only redeployment, which has too great a time cost and too high a risk factor.
So, one must advance step by step and develop with stability.
