Chapter 775 - Twin Souls

Chapter 775: Twin Souls

As a veteran reaper, Meng Chao knew that the Tree of Wisdom was not lying. tigerfish did have the habit of returning to the upper reaches of the river to lay eggs during the breeding season.

Since going against the current consumed a lot of physical energy, the tigerfish would become especially ferocious at the beginning of the breeding season. They would even attack aquatic monsters that were larger than them to store enough food for the upcoming journey.

If Jin Qianxi was seriously injured and fell into the Red Dragon River, her blood and spirit energy might indeed attract the tigerfish, which would swallow her in one gulp and bring her back upstream.

However, Jin Qianxi was, after all, the top expert of Dragon City in that era.

According to Lei Zongchao, the Battle God, and Jin Wanhao, the Underground Emperor, Jin Qianxi was the most talented and most powerful member of the three-man team that explored the ancient ruins in the past.

Otherwise, she would not have been killed in the Red Dragon River by the leader of the Blood Alliance in the battle to overthrow the Blood Alliance.

Lei Zongchao and Jin Wanhao had told Meng Chao their comments about Jin Qianxi personally.

One of them was the well-known martial arts legend in Dragon City, the pioneer of the spirit energy cultivation system, and the other was the master of the Lair, the Ultimate Style giant who had dominated Dragon City’s gray domain for decades.

Their evaluation should be quite credible.

Such a heroine, even when she had just fallen into the Red Dragon River, had fainted temporarily due to her serious injuries and the stimulation of the river water, and had been swallowed by tigerfish...

Would she have really... died there?

Sure enough, the wind and clouds suddenly changed in the translucent light and shadow.

The Tree of Wisdom, which was like the amalgamation of thousands of jellyfish, had already waved hundreds of tentacles to wrap around the girl’s body, which was only left with her chest and head.

However, as its nerves pierced into the girl’s brain through her nose, ears, eyes, and temples, the sleeping girl suddenly opened her eyes. In the depths of her eyes, an incomparably dazzling golden light blossomed.

In an instant, balls of golden light instantly surged into the Tree of Wisdom’s body.

In the beginning, the wisdom tree was still actively exploring and absorbing.

Soon, however, the memories, emotions, and strong willpower hidden in the depths of the girl’s brain turned into a raging torrent of information, flooding into the Tree of Wisdom’s body, bringing an incredible impact to the wisdom tree, it even gradually changed the Tree of Wisdom’s color!

“She’s still alive!”

The Tree of Wisdom said with great surprise, “I’ve never felt such strong emotions, such strong willpower, such strong strength, and such surging spirit energy in any human’s brain. This ordinary-looking and incomplete girl is actually stronger than Peach Blossom Town’s leader, the guy who swallowed a lot of resources to cultivate!”

Of course.

Meng Chao thought to himself, if the Tree of Wisdom was not lying, this would have happened ten years after Dragon City’s transmigration.

Dragon City’s industrial sector, scientific research system, and emergency preparedness were already much better than Peach Blossom Town’s.

In the early stages of transmigration, they had discovered and taken control of the ancient ruins.

At that time, the Blood Alliance that ruled Dragon City was an evil organization that treated human lives like grass. It often forced innocent people to enter the ancient ruins as test subjects, and triggered all kinds of traps, spores, as well as mysterious forces, in the ancient ruins.

However, their madness had indeed explored a brand-new path of spirit energy cultivation.

Jin Qianxi had been the luckiest of the thousands of test subjects who had been sacrificed. In the primitive era, when humans had not had much concept of spirit energy realm, their strength was above that of gods.

If the Tree of Wisdom measured the limits of human beings based on the strength of Peach Blossom Town’s leader, it would have suffered a great loss at Jin Qianxi’s hands.

As expected, as more and more golden light was transferred from the girl’s body to the Tree of Wisdom, the tree’s thousands of tentacles seemed to be under Jin Qianxi’s control.

It was as if the neural networks of two carbon-based intelligent beings had gradually fused together. They exchanged countless messages in depth, but in the end, Jin Qianxi’s soul took over the magpie’s nest and became the core of the neural network that did not distinguish between the two of them!

“I realized that I had encountered a different kind of human, and it was a different kind of powerful human. The result of this fusion will probably be far beyond my expectations.”

The Tree of Wisdom said, “I had been fighting with this human named Jin Qianxi for three days and three nights, but neither of us was able to do anything to the other. Therefore, I decided to retreat temporarily and examine our relationship in a calmer and friendlier way.

“Jin Qianxi’s body was about to die.

“It’s said that she was an unparalleled existence in the Dragon City in the past, but she was seriously injured in the fierce battle, and after falling into the Red Dragon River, she was devoured by the tigerfish crazily. She was also soaked in the stomach of the tigerfish for a long time in the highly corrosive digestive fluid. Even with the protection of spirit energy, the incomplete and bumpy body was already beyond its limit.

“My appearance just happened to be her life-saving straw.

“As I opened the neural network and tried to share memories, perceptions, and thoughts with her, her soul and will flooded into my body like a flood and merged deeply with me.

“No matter how angry and disgusted I was, it was impossible for me to separate their souls. In other words, such a separation would inevitably pay an extremely tragic price, and it would even lead to the complete destruction of the soul and civilization that I had painstakingly condensed. I did not dare to take such a risk.

“Besides, I don’t really dislike Jin Qianxi’s existence because my soul was originally a combination of the senses, memories, and thoughts of thousands of plants, monsters, and humans.

“I am in a period of confusion, and I do need a new, powerful human soul to guide me.

“We all realized at the same time that, whether we are willing or not, we can only form a brand-new life form in order to continue the marvelous journey of life.

“After thinking through this point, our hostility toward each other turned into deep curiosity.

“Of course, because our souls have been deeply integrated, we can use a more advanced way to exchange information.

“With the surging of the electric current in our nerves and the bursting of incomparably bright sparks, we almost instantly understood each other’s living environment, way of thinking, and the problems we faced.

“It was then that I learned Peach Blossom Town was not the only town on Earth that had transmigrated to another world. Not far from the jungle, there was Dragon City, which was dozens of times larger than Peach Blossom Town.

“Unfortunately, although it was much larger than Peach Blossom Town and the research on spirit energy, as well as the ancient ruins, was more advanced, Dragon City and Peach Blossom Town did not seem to be fundamentally different.

“The ‘marching ants’ are ruled by ‘fierce rats’; the vicious competition and even cannibalism between human beings in an environment where resources are scarce; some of them have become zombies, while some of them have become something even more evil and ugly than zombies; some of them are crying in the cold night because they are hungry, but their screams attract zombies and human beings who are even scarier than zombies; and some of them are sitting on the resources that they can never use up in their entire lives and laughing in peace.

“To be honest, Dragon City really disappointed me. If Dragon City was just a large-scale peach blossom town, what new things could I learn from the Dragon City Civilization?”

Meng Chao was speechless.

The bloody era in which heroes fell and order collapsed in the early stage of the transmigration was indeed a dark history that the historians of Dragon City could not erase no matter how much they tried.

“Under the Blood Alliance’s cruel rule, the explorers who were thrown into the depths of the ancient ruins to die were living a hundred times darker and bloodier lives than the people of Peach Blossom Town!”

The Tree of Wisdom continued, “I’ve read countless cruel scenes in Jin Qianxi’s memory. Her past can not be described as ‘living a life worse than death’. It was simply a frozen hell. Every second of suffering made people want to give up all their emotions and wisdom.

“Even though I’ve learned from the powerhouses of Peach Blossom Town how to derive pleasure from the pain of the weak, and even turn torture into an art, I still can’t help but feel that I’m suffering.

“Everything that the members of the Blood Alliance did to the explorers and experimental subjects, such as Jin Qianxi, Jin Wanhao, and Lei Zongchao, is still far beyond what I can bear. The bloody scenes made my young soul feel extremely uncomfortable for the first time.

“However, what made me feel very strange was that Jin Qianxi herself didn’t leave too many psychological scars under such cruel torture. There seemed to be no trace of anger, hatred, jealousy, fear... Such negative emotions that I often sensed in the brains of other humans.

“Even the researchers of the Blood Alliance who almost chopped her into pieces and dissected her, as well as the leader of the Blood Alliance who personally beat her down to the Red Dragon River, she didn’t have much anger and hatred.

“Yes, she wanted to destroy them, but it was only to stop them from continuing to do evil and save more people.

“I also found that almost all the heroes in Dragon City after I transmigrated had fallen. On the contrary, zombies and wolves ruled the city, and those who were scarier than zombies and wolves ruled the whole city. Occasionally, some people overthrew the evil rule of the ‘fierce rats,’ but they often transformed into new, more ferocious and cunning ‘fierce rats’ in a very short time.

“Even so, Jin Qianxi is still full of confidence in the future of Dragon City.

“She firmly believes that mankind will be able to survive in this new world that is shrouded in fog and full of dangers. She firmly believes that the flame that is burning in the deepest part of everyone’s heart will become brighter and stronger. People will eventually unite and rebuild order bit by bit, rebuilding a bright, just, equal and beautiful civilization.”
