Chapter 493: Chapter 295: Appearance of the Alien Consciousness_2

Just as Arrogance was about to penetrate the flesh, the power of the soul quickly restrained it.

Afterwards,

Chen Sheng controlled Arrogance while pulling on the various other emotions.

At first,

Chen Sheng was quite comfortable.

But as the number of desires he needed to control increased,

He even needed to split his focus to monitor his consciousness and physical changes, preventing the possibility of the “Eighth Person” launching a sudden attack.

His brow furrowed more and more tightly.

Jealousy, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust.

With each additional desire Chen Sheng pulled to the edge of the channel,

Chen Sheng’s pressure became greater.

The pulling speed also became slower and slower.

At the beginning, he only took less than an hour to control Arrogance.

But by the time the last desire, Lust, was reaching its peak,

The time directly doubled.

Thus,

Not until night fell again,

Did Chen Sheng, who had been sitting cross-legged for half a day, slowly exhale a breath.

Although his body showed no abnormalities,

His expression appeared quite weary.

Now,

All five desires are bound at the entrance of the channel by Chen Sheng.

With just a single thought, they will immediately penetrate the flesh.

During this half-day process,

The so-called “Eighth Person” didn’t make any moves.

Chen Sheng didn’t know if his guess was wrong and the other party didn’t exist,

Or if this consciousness endured without taking action,

Just to take advantage of him using the panel to upgrade and losing consciousness during that time.

Regardless of the outcome,

The arrow is already on the string; it must be shot.

Before the Heavenly Person Awakening, Chen Sheng needs to quickly improve his strength.

He doesn’t want to be tripped up by these messy matters.

Thinking of this,

Chen Sheng once again focused his mind, concentrating on the panel and getting ready to upgrade.

At the same time,

The Activation Desires that were tightly bound by the power of the soul suddenly felt the pressure around them loosen.

Boom!!!

Without the slightest hesitation,

All the Activation Desires poured into the channel between consciousness and the physical body.

The intensity was much greater than when guiding Anger and Sloth before,

It was even abnormally strong.

In just an instant,

Chen Sheng felt his body completely lose control.

Even his consciousness quickly descended into darkness.

But at that moment,

Chen Sheng saw it.

Out of the power representing Gluttony, an entirely different light suddenly appeared.

As the light became brighter and brighter,

The influence on his body continued to expand.

However,

Chen Sheng, who felt the change, showed a smile on his face.

“Got you.”

“You little bastard.”

The next second,

Upgrade! Upgrade! Upgrade!

All upgrades!!!

Skill Points rapidly decreased.

The words representing the Seven Demon Mental Method became blurred.

At the same time,

Chen Sheng’s consciousness fell completely into darkness.

Time slowly passed.

The full moon hung high in the sky.

Its silver light sprinkled down,

And within the darkness, Chen Sheng’s body was gradually undergoing a transformation.

Starting from his forehead,

Various colorful patterns gradually appeared.

Representing Lust, the pink color,

Representing Jealousy, the purple color,

Representing Greed, the green color,

Representing Arrogance, the gold color,

And representing Gluttony, the orange color mixed with a trace of black.

These patterns started from his forehead and slowly extended around Chen Sheng’s body.

Under the moonlight, they appeared even more enchanting.

Chen Sheng’s eyes were tightly closed,

With his eyelashes trembling from time to time, as if enduring some sort of pain.

The light from the patterns on his body’s surface became increasingly dazzling,

Reflecting in the sky above the mountain peak, which looked very eerie from a distance.

Unknowingly, it seemed as if some monster had been born.

Just then,

An anomaly occurred.

“Huh—”

Chen Sheng, who was supposed to be in a coma, suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the ground.

“Good, very good.”

Feeling the surging power within his body,

The now awakened “Chen Sheng” had a full face of smiles.

He casually swung his fist,

In an instant,

It seemed as if space itself had shattered,

A visible distortion appeared in the air where his fist landed.

The next second,

Boom!!!

An endless wave of air exploded in an instant.

The roaring sound echoed throughout the surrounding mountain forest of Yihe Gate, startling flocks of birds into flight.

The mountain peak beneath his feet began to tremble violently as if it could crumble at any moment.

Powerful.

Unparalleled strength.

Feeling the surging power within his body.

Chen Sheng felt nothing but immense joy.

In the era he was born in, he had never seen such a powerful physical body.

So powerful that it gave him an illusion.

As if with a gentle leap, he could embrace the moon and hook the clouds.

As if with one foot stamping, he could crack the earth.

And such a powerful body.

Was getting stronger every moment.

This…

This simply didn’t seem like a human body at all.

This was more like a god!

And he was the one possessing this body!!

He couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

The sound echoed through the night sky.

It took a while for it to slowly dissipate.

“It was worth the risk of hiding inside the Heritage Stone back then.”

“It was worth the years of waiting.”

“Finally, I found the most suitable and powerful container.”

Slap!

Chen Sheng’s palm clenched into a fist.

There was a bursting sound in the air.

Slowly spreading his arms, it was as if he was embracing the night breeze.

His eyes were closed, but the corners of his mouth curled up into a wide grin.

“Chen Sheng… right?”

He murmured.

As if talking to himself.

Or as if communicating with the sleeping consciousness of Chen Sheng within the body.

“Your body carries the disgusting smell of Heavenly Person.”

What he was referring to.

Was the Power of Authority that sealed Chen Sheng’s senses.

This Power of Authority had a unique smell that belonged to Heavenly Person.

In his view, it was utterly disgusting.

“But you don’t have to worry.”

“This so-called prohibition, I can break it easily.”

“From now on, I will take control of your body.”

“Those damn trash Heavenly People…”

At this point.

That consciousness occupying Chen Sheng’s body showed an expression like an evil ghost on his face.

“I will use your body.”

“One by one, one by one, I will crush them all!”

In his voice, endless hatred could be heard.

But as soon as the words were spoken.

“Uh-”

The previously posing consciousness suddenly began to convulse.

Intense pain swept throughout the entire body.

“What’s going on?!”

Chen Sheng showed astonishment.

He suddenly lost control over the body, and it collapsed onto the ground.

This situation shouldn’t have happened.

He had already completely suppressed the consciousness of the body’s original owner.

Even if there was to be a rejection reaction, it shouldn’t have been so intense and abrupt.

Chen Sheng tried to search his memory for a possible solution.

But,

There wasn’t a single remaining memory that matched his current situation.

He was not a perfectly intact soul.

It could be said that,

No human with the most powerful soul in the past or present could ensure the integrity of their own soul after endless years have passed.

What he could remember now,

Were only the deepest memories and the various methods engraved deep within his soul, about how to be reborn and deal with various errors.

But even these memories,

Were now more than half-blurred.

The few that remained didn’t correspond with his current situation.

Logically speaking,

It was very difficult for an external soul to be perfectly compatible with a physical body.

Over time,

The body was bound to collapse due to rejection.

But this was not without a solution,

Seven Demon Mental Method,

This technique in his consciousness was created after exhausting a lifetime of learning.

The purpose was,

To make the body go through transformation after transformation, by harnessing the power of desire, until it reached sublimation.

And this sublimation was like being reborn anew.

It was equivalent to having the body completely replaced with high-performance parts, and perfectly adapting to the soul inhabiting the body.

But now,

The collapse came too suddenly and without any sign.

This consciousness from the Heritage Stone was now lying on the ground, convulsing helplessly.

He felt that every corner of this body was rejecting him.

The external consciousness opened his mouth wide, his face twisted in pain.

But he couldn’t make a sound.

As the patterns on the body’s surface continued to spread.

His pain grew more and more intense.

It seemed as if some invisible force was driving him out of this body.

So strong that he couldn’t resist at all.

“Damn it, damn it, damn it!!!”

“I must… return to the Heritage Stone.”

Enduring the pain, he slowly stood up from the ground.

He could feel that the force was getting stronger and stronger.

It wouldn’t be long before he would be driven out – no.

He would be directly crushed by that force.

And the Heritage Stone was a container he had specifically built to accommodate souls.

As long as he could touch the Heritage Stone, his consciousness could leave in time.

Even if he couldn’t possess this powerful body,

At least,

He could save himself a slim chance of survival.
