Chapter 382 Connection and Will

Suddenly, tiny scarlet eyeballs appeared on the dragon's body, seemingly emerging from under its scales.

Densely packed, countless.

Even Lu Shaoqing, who considered himself well-informed, couldn't withstand such a bizarre scene.

Thousands of eyes were staring at him, the gaze so intense it was impossible to ignore, as if it could penetrate his skin and reach his soul.

He suddenly felt a sense of relief, and the oppressive feeling brought by his inner demons disappeared.

The Seven Demons of the Heart is a tall, slender figure standing with his hands clasped together and his legs together. He has seven faces, which change randomly every five seconds, making him truly capricious.

When Lu Shaoqing used visualization to observe his inner demons, he discovered that tiny eyeballs had sprouted on the surface of the inner demons, one appearing every few seconds, and more and more of them, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Moreover, they are living creatures, blinking and turning with agility.

The eyeballs spread extremely rapidly. When the scarlet eyeballs covered his entire body, a deep red mist enveloped the inner demon.

When eyeballs grew on all seven randomly changing faces, the inner demon closed its eyes, seemingly falling into a deep sleep.

The little black dragon was formed from tens of thousands of souls, so it certainly has more than just physical abilities.

Using eye contact as a medium and relying on the vision of the soul, the cross-shaped double pupils locked onto the inner demon within Lu Shaoqing.

Wei Miao then threw an eye seed at the inner demon.

Eye contact is a connection. With connection, power can be transmitted.

A continuous stream of soul power flowed into the eye seed on the inner demon through thousands of gazes. Even though the quality was extremely low, it was still a force that could not be ignored.

Thus, the Crimson Contamination changed under the manipulation of the Cross-shaped Double Pupils, and no one understood its capabilities better than itself.

It uses the power of the soul to stimulate the polluting power within the eye, and the two combine to suppress and pollute the inner demons that exist as soul-like entities.

The "soul-like entity" refers to a being that is neither a pure spirit nor a true split soul, but is imbued with Lu Shaoqing's life force and is closely connected to him.

This pollution will not shake the essence of the inner demon, nor will it be used to distort and dominate it. Instead, it will cause it to fall into a power struggle and stop it from focusing on Lu Shaoqing's soul.

This gives Lu Shaoqing room to maneuver without worrying about being attacked by inner demons.

Now, the power of pollution has woven a curtain, temporarily separating the inner demons from the Faceless God and Lu Shaoqing.

[Multiple assessments of scarlet contamination are underway...]

The system message stopped there, with no further updates. The contamination attempt neither succeeded nor failed.

Wei Miao said in a deep voice, "Open your mind and accept the guidance of your subconscious."

She gave Lu Shaoqing a wink.

Although Lu Shaoqing's soul was strengthened, it still could not compare to that of a normal superhuman.

With his cooperation, the scarlet pollution easily achieved deep domination.

The pollution process has stalled here.

The Eye Seed will exert a subconscious suggestion on him, and under the guidance of the Cross-shaped double pupils, he will pounce on the faceless god's soul-like form.

The Heart Seed is a product of rules that combines the will of the idol. It absorbs the host's spiritual power and a small amount of life force, generating a Heart Demon and a Faceless God.

However, Faceless God does not have a conscious will, so the power within Him is quite pure.

It can be absorbed by Lu Shaoqing, after all, it was originally nurtured by Lu Shaoqing.

The inner demon contains the will of the idol; it will only fight Lu Shaoqing and will not be at the mercy of others.

The reason for not directly and brutally infusing Lu Shaoqing with the Black Dragon's soul power is that the soul power from mortals is inferior and chaotic, containing residual emotions and thoughts. Feeding it to Lu Shaoqing would only fill his soul with impurities, making it bloated and inferior. Only the Eye Seed, which is indiscriminate in its use of both meat and vegetables, possesses inherent polluting power and is chaotic and disordered. The slight chaos in a mortal's soul would simply be assimilated and integrated by it.

Lu Shaoqing lacks soul cultivation techniques and cannot control his soul independently.

Therefore, eye implants are needed.

On the little black dragon, a small portion of its eyeballs shifted slightly, looking at the Faceless God.

Through a series of connections between "Free God - Little Black Dragon - Cross-shaped Double Pupils - Eye Seed - Lu Shaoqing", the Eye Seed successfully guided Lu Shaoqing's soul to invade the Faceless God.

The soul devours another soul; it's an instinct for feeding, something we're born with.

In Lu Shaoqing's visualization, the outline of the Faceless God was gradually disappearing. This represented His power being gradually eroded.

Lu Shaoqing became so engrossed in his work that he almost forgot himself.

The feeling of spiritual fulfillment made him feel like he was floating on air.

Having grown accustomed to a life of hardship, he had never experienced such exhilarating cultivation. In the past, each cultivation session required him to carefully balance the power of his divine will and inner demons, causing him considerable repression.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Miao calmly said, "That's about enough."

At this moment, the Faceless God was actually forced back into the Heart Seed state. If it weren't for the suppression of the Cross-shaped Double Pupils, the inner demon would have already pounced on Lu Shaoqing and started devouring him.

Lu Shaoqing's soul has grown to a level close to that of the original faceless god.

Although it is still weaker than the inner demon, it at least has some strength.

The improvement of soul strength is generally linked to the improvement of mental strength, and the two complement each other.

Mental willpower played a crucial role in this experiment.

Lu Shaoqing almost emptied his mind and left his actions to his subconscious.

In reality, the crimson dragon's eyes gazed at the statue of the free god placed on the ground.

It excels at establishing and utilizing connections. Possessing immense spiritual power, its methods are undoubtedly far more diverse.

There is a power transmission between Faceless God and the God of Freedom behind him, because the Five Lucky Rats said that they can erode Faceless God through their inner demons, and then devour the power of the God of Freedom behind him.

This connection is so obvious and strong.

A wisp of power from the eye seeped into the heart seed. Even though it was instantly extinguished under the suppression of the rules, the invisible connection was still captured.

It drove Lu Shaoqing's soul to crash into the seed in his heart.

The soul burns fiercely when it collides with the seed of the heart, and the power of the rules and the power of the soul intertwine.

Lu Shaoqing's spiritual will, driven by his burning soul, caused the core of his soul to break free and invade the God of Freedom through the connection, entering the statue of the god.

Pure spiritual will possesses keen perception.

Lu Shaoqing felt as if he had entered a storm of darkness, his mind in utter chaos strangling his will, his thoughts fragmented and unable to flow.

He drifted with the empty waves of his mind, oblivious to time and direction, in a daze.

“If one cannot refine one’s will amidst emptiness and chaos, one will be assimilated by the spirit of the free god.” Wei Miao observed coldly and made a comment. “In other words, he must have a spiritual anchor that allows him to firmly remember who he is and what he really wants to do.”

"If you go with the flow, you will gradually lose yourself."

However, since Wei Miao had chosen Lu Shaoqing, she naturally had confidence in his qualities.

At the very least, the subconscious suggestion he receives through his eyes can give him a helping hand.

She stood aside, waiting quietly.
