Chapter 484: Reincarnation Blockade
What it was to them no longer mattered, because in the next moment, an extreme white light would engulf everyone present.
These Unity Realm cultivators were too close to the bomb, all piled up at the center of the explosion. After the energy was completely released, their shields were instantly torn apart, their bodies dissolving and returning to nature.
The Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks suffered a second blow, with a huge crater appearing, forming symmetric twin craters, quite a sight.
However, it was unfortunate for the innocent plants and animals around the mountains and rivers, simply because they were born outside the Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks and inexplicably suffered calamity.
After everything settled down, two tall crystal-armored figures appeared above the explosion, looking around.
“Boss Wei, it seems everything’s resolved!”
Suo Hao said, “Are there others?”
Yashan replied, “The remaining matters are not a big problem, leave it to me! My spiritual power is a bit depleted now, I need to go back and replenish it. It will take at most ten days to completely settle things and get the Starry Sky Chamber of Commerce back on track.”
Suo Hao smiled, “Alright! Call me if you need anything.”
As he was about to leave, his radar sensed a cultivator flying towards them at an extremely fast speed, causing him to pause and exclaim, “Friend Immortal Master?”
Yashan hadn’t seen the Immortal Master before and couldn’t help but ask, “What Immortal Master?”
Suo Hao said, “This person is someone I met a few years ago. If all goes well, I can assign him for some simple research for you. Here he comes!”
Two streaks of light flew over, stopping in the distance, revealing a man with a thin face and sunken eyes, along with a glamorous woman, who were indeed Immortal Master and Lin Mei.
Seeing the two crystal-armored figures, Immortal Master was also surprised, “Friend Jia Wei?”
However, seeing the two crystal-armored figures, he hesitated and stopped in place, not daring to approach rashly.
Suo Hao said, “Let’s go, let’s go over and take a look.”
After flying closer with Yashan, they stopped not far from Immortal Master and asked, “Friend Immortal Master, it’s been many years. How did you end up here?”
After exchanging greetings with Suo Hao, Immortal Master looked at Yashan and asked, “And who is this?”
Suo Hao said, “This is my younger brother, Jia Yashan!”
“Younger brother?” Immortal Master looked at the shiny crystal armor and immediately believed it.
Immortal Master didn’t care about these, but pointed to the two huge craters in the Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks and asked, “I heard a loud noise here just now. Friend Jia Wei, do you know what happened?”
Suo Hao casually said, “You’re talking about that! One was blown up by me, and the other was blown up by Jia Yashan. Nothing major, Friend Immortal Master, you don’t need to think too much about it.”
Immortal Master had a new understanding of “nothing major” and forcibly held back a series of subsequent questions. He looked at the two huge and incomparable craters again, repeatedly confirming that this was something that he, a cultivator of the ‘Cycle Realm,’ could not achieve, and silently said, ‘Indeed, Friend Jia Wei is unpredictable. His strength once again exceeds my expectations.’
On the side, Lin Mei’s eyes widened, her mouth slightly open!
The Immortal Master’s mood quickly calmed down, and he chuckled, “The Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks, which has dominated the immortal cultivation world for who knows how many years, has come to an end today.”
Suo Hao said, “We’re still far from it. We just destroyed the mountain gate and killed a few elders! As long as there is intention, the remaining elders and disciples can quickly rebuild in another place.”
The Immortal Master said, “Even if they rebuild, they dare not use the name ‘Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks’ anymore! From now on, there is no Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks.”
Suo Hao smirked, “Indeed, any sect that doesn’t dare to use the name ‘Elemental Constellation Sanhe Peaks,’ regardless of whether they are the original members or not, has fundamentally changed. Speaking of which, it’s quite a coincidence that you, Friend Immortal Master, also appeared here.”
The Immortal Master said, “In recent years, I’ve been traveling around and heard many strange rumors about the Morling City in Huayang Beizhou. I came here to take a look.”
“Oh? What are your thoughts after seeing it?”
The Immortal Master thought for a moment and summarized, “Their skills are superb, and their techniques are ingenious. This marks the beginning of a prosperous era for mortals.”
“Superb skills” refers to the craftsmanship of artisans, while “ingenious techniques” refers to the mindset of industrializing productivity.
Suo Hao agreed but corrected, “Indeed, but Friend Immortal Master, you made a mistake.”
“Please correct me, Friend Jia Wei.”
Suo Hao said, “This isn’t the beginning of a prosperous era for mortals; it’s the beginning of a prosperous era for the human race. Mortals and cultivators should be united as one.”
The Immortal Master thought for a moment, nodded, and said, “Friend Jia Wei always manages to uncover the essence of things. He is truly a rare talent in this world. I admire him! I’ve lived for over two thousand years, but I couldn’t see through this! Now, seeing Morling City and being reminded by Friend Jia Wei, I finally understand! Unfortunately, it’s too late!”
Suo Hao smiled, “It’s not too late. A hundred years is enough! The changes you saw in Morling City are just the changes of the past five years!”
The Immortal Master laughed heartily, “Does Friend Jia Wei still want to invite me to work for you?”
Suo Hao said, “Of course.”
The Immortal Master immediately said, “Since that’s the case, I can’t refuse your kindness. I’ll go back with Friend Jia Wei this time! I’ll sell the rest of my life to you, Friend. I just hope to see a different scene in my remaining years.”
Suo Hao didn’t make any promises but simply said, “Let’s give it a try. You won’t lose anything, right?”
However, he then turned to Yashan and said, “Friend Immortal Master, before officially starting work, you need to follow my younger brother, Jia Yashan, to study for a while and master my set of immortal cultivation theories.”
Regardless of whether the Immortal Master agreed or not, he directly said to Yashan, “Later, take the Immortal Master back to the academy and arrange for him to audit courses, just like Third Uncle.”
The Immortal Master and Lin Mei turned to look at Yashan, surprised, “Academy?”
However, he had no objections to Suo Hao’s arrangements and just said, “In my remaining years, Lin Mei will accompany me. Can we arrange that together?”
Yashan then spoke up, “Of course, and I can give you ten slots. You can recommend friends and family to enroll and study.”
The Immortal Master chuckled, “No need, I no longer have friends and family.”
After some discussion, the subsequent matters were quickly settled. The Immortal Master followed Yashan back to the academy for study, and depending on his progress, work arrangements would be made after graduation…
Perhaps the Immortal Master was the talent Suo Hao was looking for, or perhaps not, who knows! It needs time to verify.
As for the concern about the threat posed by the Immortal Master, a cultivator of the ‘Cycle Realm,’ he believed that Yashan could make the Immortal Master acknowledge defeat. It wouldn’t be too complicated, just take out the ‘Enchantment Array Plate,’ approach him, take a picture, and the Immortal Master would be placated!
Suo Hao returned to his laboratory once again, diving headfirst into the research on consciousness.
For the past five years, Suo Hao had mostly focused on researching the issues of consciousness and spiritual power, occasionally solving some problems submitted by Yashan.
Five years of focused research made him realize that consciousness was much more complex than imagined. Finding a way for consciousness to exist indefinitely was extremely difficult.
However, during these five years, experimenting with hundreds of consciousnesses within the spatial realm had also brought Suo Hao many gains.
Among them, the biggest gain for Suo Hao was: the matching conditions for consciousness information.
With just this one condition, Suo Hao could come up with many tricks. If one were to consider a person’s consciousness information as a soul, then he would be the evil wizard who could manipulate souls.
The main gains were:
First, reincarnation resurrection.
He could revive the consciousness information recorded in the pinball space in another person’s body.
However, the conditions were quite strict. Human consciousness could only be revived in the body of a humanoid creature, with the body structure being secondary, and having the same brain was crucial.
Male and female brains had fundamental differences, such as significant differences in the ratio of gray matter to white matter. While it was possible to insert a man’s consciousness information into a woman’s body, the success rate was not high. Forcibly matching had a high probability of causing confusion.
In addition to having the same brain, it was also required that the original owner’s consciousness be weak. If the consciousness was too strong, it was difficult to match. It was best if it was a child who hadn’t experienced much.
Second, reincarnation blockade.
Suo Hao had found a method to completely control the consciousness information recorded in the pinball space, including his own consciousness information.
In other words, when Suo Hao died and his consciousness was brought into the universe by the pinball space, it would randomly go to an unknown place until his consciousness information was shot into a suitable body container. At this point, Suo Hao could set conditions for himself, choose to reincarnate, or continue to wander with the pinball space.
What does this mean?
It meant that Suo Hao could control whether the consciousness information recorded in the pinball space reincarnated, and when it reincarnated.
Taking Yashan as an example, if Suo Hao blocked Yashan’s consciousness information, when Suo Hao and Yashan both died and arrived in another world, if Suo Hao was reincarnated but Yashan remained in a dormant state, wandering with the pinball space until Suo Hao personally intervened and found a suitable container for Yashan.
The principle of achieving ‘reincarnation blockade’ was not complicated either, it only required setting matching conditions for the consciousness information recorded in the pinball space. That is, when the consciousness information found a suitable host, Suo Hao set it to ‘none match,’ and the consciousness could not be revived.
Third, consciousness information decoding.
The recorded consciousness information could be decoded and restored into text or image information, that is, extracting the memory of consciousness information.
But this line of progress is currently very slow, in the initial stage. He also set the cracking method after inadvertently noticing the rules of consciousness information. This line is currently basically unusable, but since there is a beginning, complete decoding is only a matter of time.
Of course, this requires him to have more knowledge about consciousness information.
Suo Hao muttered, “In the next world, let’s use Yashan as the experimental subject first. Let’s try out the effect of ‘reincarnation blockade.’”
