“The consequences of doing so would be very great. Not only would it affect the future development potential of the forbidden core, but my soul power will also be greatly consumed, and in the end, it would completely dissipate.

Thank you readers!

“Without Ning Shi, you will ruin your future because of Wang Fu and lose my guidance forever. Can you bear this price?”

This time, Muraka was very angry. She kept reminding Nico that there might be something wrong with Wang Fu and that going to Cloudy Mountain was a trap. However, Nico was stubborn and refused to listen.

Therefore, she had to explain to him the consequences of Nico acting on her own accord so that he would deeply understand his mistake.

Nico lowered his head and admitted his mistake again. “Teacher, it was my fault this time. I promise you that there will never be a next time.”

Muraka was satisfied with Nico’s attitude of admitting his mistake. She sighed and said, “Work hard. I don’t know how long I can stay with you.”

Nico turned pale with fright. He quickly asked, “Teacher, what do you mean?”

“My soul is already more than 500 years old,” Muraka said frankly. “The human body will rot, and so will the soul and consciousness. One day, they will rot and die.”

“I can feel that my soul is gradually weakening recently.

“According to my estimation, in five years at most, my soul power will be unable to maintain itself and will naturally dissipate.”

The person Nico trusted the most was Muraka, who had accompanied him since he was young. He could not accept the fact that his teacher was about to die. He asked dejectedly, “Didn’t Teacher Ye Hongmian say that if a person’s consciousness is transferred to a machine or mecha, they can obtain eternal life?”

Muraka had long seen through life and death. She laughed and said, “Immortality is a false proposition. There has never been absolute immortality.

“To humans, ten thousand years is too long. However, to a planet, a hundred years is but a flash. To the vast universe, ten thousand years is but a flash.

“One day, you will understand that time is only a relative concept. Immortality is a lie that time has placed on humans.

“Even the boundless universe will come to an end one day, let alone us puny humans.

“The lifespan of an ordinary person is 150 years. I have lived to be more than 500 years old. To an ordinary person, I can be considered to be immortal in a certain sense.

“Therefore, humans have been tirelessly researching how to transfer consciousness to mechas.”

“Is there no way for you to continue living?” Nico asked unwillingly.

Muraka did not answer Nico’s question directly. Instead, she asked, “Do you know why the forbidden mecha Scarlet Demon wants to find a master for itself?”

This question stumped Nico. He had never thought about Scarlet Demon’s thoughts carefully. Now that Muraka had asked him, Nico also felt that something was wrong.

The Scarlet Demon was a powerful forbidden mecha. It was free to move about alone. Why did it need to find a master for itself?

“Because Scarlet Demon is like me,” Muraka answered herself. “His soul is about to reach its end. His mechanical consciousness is like a human. It has a lifespan.

“Whether it is the human soul or the machine’s consciousness, they are constantly fluctuating and depleting.

“If one only consumes without replenishing, one’s soul and consciousness will be exhausted one day.

‘Therefore, Scarlet Demon thought of a way. He created the Forbidden

Meditation Technique and found himself a master in Scarlet. As long as Scarlet cultivates the Forbidden Meditation Technique, he would drive the forbidden mecha.

‘Scarlet Demon is able to absorb the souls of those slaughtered, replenishing his soul power and extending his lifespan.”

Nico seemed to have seen hope. He said, “Teacher Muraka, in other words, as long as you become a forbidden mecha and find a mecha master who practices the Forbidden Meditation Technique to replenish your soul power, you can extend your life.

Muraka was not so optimistic. She said, “The fact that I can attach my consciousness to the forbidden core is a coincidence. It’s an accidental result of the laboratory explosion, not a scientific plan.

“If I want to extend my life, I must first transfer my consciousness completely to a mecha. The technology of consciousness transfer has yet to be mastered by humans.

‘Even if I were lucky enough to transfer my consciousness to the mecha and become a forbidden mecha, I might not be able to find a suitable master.

‘Scarlet Demon spent a total of thirteen years to find Scarlet.

‘Because the meditation coordinates of the Forbidden Meditation Technique are illusory images of killing and soul absorption, the cultivation process is not only extremely difficult but also extremely dangerous. It has high requirements for one’s aptitude and various aspects.

‘Scarlet Demon is lucky to find Scarlet.

“I reckon that there won’t be a second Scarlet on this origin planet.”

If Muraka wanted to extend his life, not only did she have to transfer her consciousness, but she also had to find a special genius who was suitable to cultivate the Forbidden Meditation Technique. It was extremely difficult.

The hope was slim.

However, Nico did not give up. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he

would do his best to fight for it.

Just as he was about to speak, he saw a speck of starlight in the distant sky.

In the next second, a hundred-meter-tall mecha stopped in front of Nico.

The mecha disappeared and Wu Yisheng stood in front of Nico.

When Wu Yisheng saw Nico, he heaved a sigh of relief. He first called Principal Liang to report the good news of finding Nico.

Then, he asked Nico about his encounter.

Nico did not hide much. He told him everything about how he had been deceived by Wang Fu, including what had happened in the underground passage.

It was just that Ning Shi was replaced by an unknown mysterious person..
