Wizards in the world of cultivation

Chapter 2: Twins of Fate (Please continue reading)

The Primal Wizard, as the name suggests, is the first wizard.

When wizards first appeared, they didn't have a complete system or various kinds of witchcraft like they do now. Instead, they relied on plundering the bloodline talents of other creatures and solidifying them into their own mental space.

However, each time the bloodline talents of different creatures were solidified, it would lead to violent conflicts. If they failed, a huge explosion would occur in their spiritual sea. At that time, every time a wizard advanced, he would face a life-or-death test. Therefore, after the wizarding model gradually became systematic, the original wizards slowly declined.

Of course, if it were just this kind of inheritance, Su You wouldn't be so happy.

Rather, this inheritance left behind a method to solve the difficulties of the original wizards in advancing their ranks: a mark that can be integrated into the soul and become one's innate talent, a twin of destiny.

Twins of Fate: You can choose one body as your clone. After merging with the soul imprint, you can be resurrected from the other body as long as neither body dies.

This talent is indeed incredibly powerful. Firstly, it can resolve the conflict between the bloodline talents of the original school, and as long as you keep trying, you will eventually succeed. Secondly, it can protect the life of the inheritor, making it a very powerful life-saving talent.

Without hesitation, Su You released his soul and merged the mark into it.

In an instant, the entire soul was enveloped in white light, which continuously transformed it.

In a short while, Su You felt that the Gemini Mark had completely merged into his soul and become his innate talent.

After transforming it into his innate talent, Su You also understood how to use it.

This talent, though powerful, has limitations; it can only be used to select creatures that are no more powerful than one's own.

"Now that I have such a powerful talent, I have a better way to leave," Su You thought to himself.

After all, it would be risky to forcibly kill eight people using mental power, but it is possible to forcibly destroy a person's soul using mental power.

Then it will be easy to send the twin mark into it and occupy its body as a clone.

Although he wasted his only chance to create a clone, Su You had considered this clone. If he chose a powerful demon beast, it might bring greater power, but the improvement would be limited. Primordial wizards could take over the abilities of beasts anyway, so at most they would just lose one ability.

This clone is meant for self-preservation; as long as he stays in a safe place, his life will not be in danger.

And what is most important for a wizard?
It involves the study of knowledge and the exploration of the world. It also requires a lot of time to study and integrate the knowledge from both worlds.

Therefore, the clone only needs to be in an absolutely safe place to conduct research in peace.

Although it was only a preliminary exposure to knowledge from both worlds, Su You's wizarding instincts had already triggered dozens of topics to surface in his mind.

Now that his talents had been successfully integrated, Su You no longer hesitated. He was getting closer and closer to the Void Heaven Sect, and it would be bad if something unexpected happened.

Mental Thrust!

Su You's spiritual power transformed into a sharp spike, which landed directly on the two cultivators in the nearby cage.

Without any strength to resist, the two collapsed instantly inside the cage.

"Stop!" The leading cultivator from the Void Heaven Sect immediately noticed the anomaly inside the cage.

In an instant, the entire group came to a stop.

After several people came up to investigate the situation, Su You's gaze fell on a fair-skinned cultivator at the back.

Although this person is at the peak of Qi Refining, he only took out one top-grade offensive magic weapon and one high-grade defensive magic weapon in the battle just now, so he should have the fewest trump cards.

Choosing this person would minimize the risk. Without the slightest hesitation, Su You's spiritual power surged forth, transforming into countless spiritual spikes that pierced the person's soul.

It was pierced and riddled with holes in an instant.

Twins of fate!

Without the slightest hesitation, the moment the attack was launched, his innate talent was immediately activated. The Twin Mark, carrying a part of his soul, silently landed in the other person's mental sea.

Within the mental space, the opponent's will had long been destroyed, and the remaining soul had no power to resist, and was easily devoured by Su You.

"What's wrong? Junior Brother Jiang?" Zhou Yunming caught Jiang Chen, who almost fell over.

"It's nothing, Senior Brother Zhou. I accidentally bumped my wound when I came down. I'll be fine after a few days of rest back at the sect," the twin clones explained.

Zhou Yunming simply responded without saying anything. As for offering the other party some pills, that was impossible. His own healing pills were purchased with spirit stones, and the other party wasn't seriously injured. He couldn't very well say anything since he was reluctant to use good pills for minor injuries.

"Junior Brother Chi, have you found anything?" Zhou Yunming stepped forward and asked.

Chi Shan is the son of a late-stage Golden Core cultivator from the sect, so his knowledge and experience must surpass theirs.

"It looks like a mental attack destroyed the soul, but a mental attack can only be done by someone at least at the Foundation Establishment stage, and they would also need to master a mental technique." Chi Shan looked around warily.

But the surroundings were completely calm, and there was no further movement after the two people died.

He wasn't afraid of ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators, but he was indeed difficult to defend against strange spiritual attacks.

However, the opponent only dared to attack the few people inside the cage, so perhaps their spiritual attack wasn't too strong; otherwise, they would have attacked those few directly.

"Let's keep going. We'll reach the sect's territory in three more hours. By then, no matter what kind of demons or monsters they are, they won't dare to cause trouble there," Zhou Yunming decided.

The group continued to ride the Azure Blood Horse, quickening their pace to return to the sect.

……

Inside the cage.

Although Su You remained expressionless, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

With his twin clones, his safety is guaranteed.

"However, these twin clones are indeed incredibly peculiar." Su You could now clearly feel that he was multitasking, simultaneously controlling two bodies, yet they did not interfere with each other, as if they were independent entities.

Having seized Jiang Chen as his twin clone, Su You's escape route was secured; now it was time to consider his main body.

“If this group of people is sent to the Void Heaven Sect, their souls will be searched and their spirits taken away. Then, based on the slightest clues, the situation of the Blood Abyss will be investigated. Therefore, this group of people cannot be kept.”

Su You didn't care whether the investigation would lead to the Blood Abyss, but his identity within the Flowing Mountain Sect could not be exposed.

Moreover, the other party is unlikely to find any information about Blood Abyss, and it would be bad if they could trace it back to him.

"No rush. Once we're almost at the Void Heaven Sect, we'll annihilate the souls of these people, and then commit suicide. That will perfectly cover up all the information," Su You pondered silently.
