My Endless Life.

Chapter 323 Becoming Undead

After careful consideration, Li Qi decided to become an undead first.

At least I have to know the secret of the undead's reincarnation, so that I can avoid the limit of twenty years in every life.

After all, judging from what Li Qi saw of Huang Wanmian, she obviously didn't have to worry about being targeted by the world consciousness.

After learning about Li Qi's idea of ​​becoming an undead, Huang Wanmian also laughed. She looked much more relaxed and said to Li Qi:

"Since you are going to become an undead, then you will be my fellow tribesman. Let's first decide the relationship between you and me."

"relation?"

"Well, generally speaking, the undead who transform into the same race are considered to be parent-child relationships in a sense, but most new undead will not choose such a relationship. More people will choose to become 'brothers' and 'sisters'... This is the 'family relationship' among the undead."

Huang Wanmian explained.

Li Qi frowned slightly when he heard this. He thought about what Huang Wanmian said for a while, and then asked:
"The birth of new members of the Undead Clan can only rely on the transformation of members of the same clan?"

“Well, all of us undead were transformed from the first undead. After countless generations, there are now four undead families in existence.

"My family is called 'Heng'. My real name is 'Muxi Heng'. If you want to become an undead, you must also use 'Heng' as your surname. This is your real name."

"What does a real name do?"

"The function of your real name is to serve as the 'anchor' for you to become an undead. Only when you remember your real name can you completely restore your memory as an undead. Therefore, your real name is very important."

Huang Wanmian instructed seriously.

Li Qi asked again: "If someone tells you your real name... can you recover your memory in advance?"

"No, unless the person who tells the real name is a member of the same family, and must be a direct descendant within three generations."

Huang Wanmian added: "And unless you are responsible for converting you, or you are going to convert your roommate, it is better to hide your real name as much as possible.

"There is a family called the Key family in the Undead Family. They have mastered the secret technique of directly locking onto the souls of the Undead using their real names. If you encounter someone with malicious intent in their family, you will be in trouble."

Huang Wanmian informed Li Qi of the main matters concerning her becoming an undead, and emphasized the importance of her real name.

Li Qi kept all these precautions in mind, and then asked:

"So how do you become undead?"

"Give me your hand."

Huang Wanmian said to Li Qi.

Li Qi followed his instructions, and the two put their hands together. Huang Wanmian closed her eyes and said to Li Qi:

"Close your eyes, feel the vibrations of your soul with your heart, and determine your true name."

Li Qi closed his eyes and sank his consciousness into the depths of his soul.

A series of special fluctuations were transmitted from Huang Wanmian to Li Qi's soul. Under Huang Wanmian's control, wisps of strange aura suddenly appeared in Li Qi's soul.

These strange auras gradually penetrated into Li Qi's soul, forming a constantly rotating core inside.

What surprised Li Qi was that this core was quite fragile, as if it could be completely shattered as long as Li Qi had a thought about it.

Frowning slightly and suppressing the doubt in his mind for the time being, Li Qi focused all his attention on condensing the core.

Then he heard Huang Wanmian's voice:

"Think of your true name, and then carve it into your soul core!"

Without any hesitation, Li Qi engraved his name, which he had used for several lifetimes, into the core.

Li Qi Heng's name was all engraved on the white core.

After doing all this, Li Qi keenly felt that he had a strange connection with Huang Wanmian in front of him.

This connection is just like the one between him and Li Qiao. They can know each other's location at any time and send short messages through the connection.

Is this the family connection that Huang Wanmian... No, Mu Xi mentioned?
Li Qi was thinking about it, and felt Mu Xi let go of his hand, then he opened his eyes and looked at her.

When their eyes met, Mu Xi suddenly laughed and said:
"Is your name in this life your real name?"

"You know?" Li Qi looked at Mu Xi in surprise.

"Of course, I am responsible for pulling your soul core, so I can naturally see the name on it."

"Is there any problem with using my real name?" Li Qi asked again.

Mu Xi replied: "No problem, I also used my original name as my real name. As long as you are careful not to use your real name after reincarnation, the rest doesn't matter."

Mu Xi meant that since Li Qi had already taken the name 'Li Qi' as his real name, he should try not to use this name in his next life.

Other than that there shouldn't be anything to note.

Li Qi nodded slightly, understanding Mu Xi's thoughts. Then he heard Mu Xi say:
"After becoming an undead, you will also have the ability to transform others into undead. But you must be careful. When transforming a member of your tribe, you will need to consume both your original soul power and the other party's. If your soul power is insufficient, or the other party's soul power is insufficient, the transformation will fail."

"What happens if you fail?"

"As an undead, the most you can do is to have your core dimmed a little. But the person you transform will suffer from soul damage and dementia at best, or even soul collapse and die on the spot at worst. So you must remember this."

When Mu Xi said this, she seemed to remember something and quickly added:
"I transformed you because I was sure that your soul power was stronger than mine, so I dared to transform you... I definitely didn't want to harm you!"

Li Qi could feel Mu Xi's nervousness.

She was afraid that Li Qi would really misunderstand the reason why she did this, and then she would be truly wronged.

Seeing her cautious look, Li Qi found it funny:
"I didn't say anything. Don't worry. I can tell the difference between malice and kindness. I know you don't want to hurt me."

"Huh, that's good... It's not uncommon for people of the same clan to turn against each other due to misunderstandings. It would be very dangerous to be hostile to a fellow clan member who knows your real name."

Mu Xi let out a relaxed breath, patted her chest and said. Li Qi nodded slightly, focusing his attention on his fragile core again, and suddenly asked:

"Is the soul core... very fragile?"

"Fragile?" Mu Xi was stunned. "What nonsense are you talking about? Once the core is formed, unless you can't remember the memory in endless reincarnations and it is gradually worn away, it is basically impossible to be destroyed by any external force, not even by yourself!"

"…I see."

Li Qi looked deep in the eyes when he heard this.

It seems that he is indeed different.

The ability hidden in his soul that allows him to reincarnate takes precedence over the soul core of the undead.

Li Qi can choose to destroy the core at any time, which is what makes him different from other undead.

"By the way, I haven't asked you what kind of relationship you choose." Mu Xi raised the question again and said half-jokingly: "You can choose to be my son. I really want a child..."

“…Just brother and sister.”

Li Qi resisted the urge to roll his eyes at Mu Xi and spoke in a low voice.

Mu Xi shrugged in disappointment: "Well, I guess you will choose the same... In that case, remember that there are four of us in total, including you, from the three generations above.

"There is an older brother and a younger sister. The 'father' above the older brother has passed away, so the upper generations are cut off. We are the only ones who have connections between the upper and lower generations."

"Are these the only people in the Heng Clan?"

"That's not the case. There are many people in the Heng clan, but because there are many people who have been separated from each other, the 'family relationship' is also relatively scattered. If I explain it in a way that you can understand... it's probably similar to the difference between a branch and a side branch."

So Li Qi is the youngest one in Mu Xi's branch of the Heng family.

Li Qi felt it was wonderful to have a family that he could contact even after reincarnation.

Sensing the connection between him and Mu Xi, Li Qi felt that his heart, which had gradually become closed due to too many reincarnations, was showing signs of warming up.

Thinking of this, he looked at Mu Xi and said seriously:

"Then from now on, I will rely entirely on my third sister for care."

……

After communicating with Mu Xi, there was a few months of peace. Li Qi found Li Qiao and gave Eve No. 1 to her as a servant.

"How does it feel?"

Li Qi looked at Li Qiao who was circling around Eve No. 1 and asked with a smile.

"Why does this look so similar to me?"

Li Qiao's gaze lingered on Eve No. 1's face, which was almost identical to hers, for a long time, and finally she asked in surprise.

Because this is your substitute.

Li Qi talked to himself in his heart, but did not say it out loud. He just smiled and asked:

"Don't you like it?"

"No, I like it very much. Xiaoqi is thoughtful. This looks... much better than that... Adam series Yanjia you made."

Li Qiao commented on Eve No. 1.

Li Qi also turned to look at Eve No. 1 and nodded slightly in agreement.

Judging from appearance alone rather than strength, Eve No. 1 is indeed much stronger than the Adam series which is full of metal and man-made style.

Because Eve No. 1's appearance is exactly like that of a human, whether it is the skin or the "blood" flowing in the skin.

Even the bones and internal organs in the body were made by Li Qi to imitate the human structure.

The only difference is that the materials are not flesh and blood, but metal and wood.

Eve No. 1 has human senses and can hear, see, speak, and taste human delicacies.

The body also has its own internal circulatory system that can break down and transform the food we eat, and then excrete it through the excretion system.

Of course, Eve No. 1 cannot replenish energy by eating, it can only eat, but it is with this added ability that Eve No. 1 becomes more like a human.

The only drawback is that because most of the devices in Eve No. 1's body are used to make her more human-like, her strength is far inferior to that of Adam.

She probably only has the power of the fifth level of innateness, and cannot carry more offensive modules.

Because the more offensive modules it carries, the less human Eve-1 becomes.

Li Qi created Eve No. 1 with the original intention of transferring Li Qiao's consciousness and soul into Eve No. 1 after Li Qiao was targeted by the world's will and died.

But after obtaining the undead's reincarnation method, Li Qi came up with a better idea.

This certainly does not mean making Li Qiao an undead, but through the transformation of the undead, Li Qi can use the undead core to find the connection between himself and Li Qiao.

As long as this connection is cut off, the world's will will focus back on Li Qi.

By then, Li Qiao will no longer be targeted by the world's will.
