Capítulo 1944: Chapter 1942: Taiji Abyss
According to Helen, it was with the help of the former keeper of the “Hand Remnants,” a supreme existence known as the “Lord of Nightmares” and “Second Prophet,” that a deep-seated seal area was created under the castle to assist the witches.
This raises a question.
Upper Beings often have the ‘arrogance’ that comes with being a supreme existence.
Matters within their own domain would never be handled by others.
Yet, the witch used the power of this Second Prophet to craft such an abyss structure in her crucial core area,
which makes Han Dong wonder if the one Helen calls [Grandmother], who dominates the witches, really has an Upper Rank, or is it just because the witch has a good relationship with the Second Prophet?
Before stepping into the abyss, Han Dong quietly asked:
“Helen, is the grandmother you mentioned an Upper Being?
During my invitation to provide testimony at the Pointed Horn Conference, I only saw the Second Prophet at the highest level, but never saw the shadow of this ‘Queen.'”
“Grandmother, for some reasons, has not reached [End Master], but is a [Pillar].
However, she is a special pillar, supporting the Dreamlands and nurturing witches like me, while also being responsible for the research and development of Forbidden Knowledge.
Things like my ‘Outer Shell’ and the physical structures of the witches are results of developing Forbidden Knowledge.
Grandmother’s status is almost close to End Master, and she is well regarded throughout the Dreamlands,
even the ‘Second Prophet’ often comes to visit and discuss topics related to Forbidden Knowledge with Grandmother.”
Han Dong himself was curious and wanted to personally meet this special [Queen of Dreamlands].
Soon, under Helen’s guidance, they arrived at the entrance of Taiji Abyss.
When Han Dong first heard about Taiji, he thought of the Taoist concepts from his motherland.
Upon seeing the entrance of the abyss, he finally confirmed that it was indeed related,
the entrance was designed in the style of a Taiji diagram, consisting of one white and one black “entrance.” Google seaʀᴄh novｅlfire.net
“Nicholas, you seem to know something?”
“Just a little. Miss Helen, please elaborate. Which entrance should we go through?”
“You need to go through both simultaneously~ When stepping into Taiji Abyss, you need to perfectly separate the soul from the body, body into [Yang Entrance], soul into [Yin Entrance].
When both enter the abyss at the same time, the ‘connection’ between the body and the soul will be completely cut off, becoming independent entities.
You will meet at the deepest point.
The only requirement for crossing the abyss is to maintain a synchronization rate of over 90% between the body and soul without any association… If the synchronization rate drops below this value for more than ten seconds, the individual will fall into a lost state and slowly walk back to the entrance.”
“Oh? Quite an interesting setup.
By the way, if the body is without the soul’s lead, isn’t it just a walking corpse? Or do you need to split the consciousness to control it?”
“That depends on Mr. Han Dong’s abilities.
For me, I use the ‘Outer’ to control the body and the ‘Inner’ to control the soul, ensuring a synchronization rate of around 95% even when completely separated.
Actually, as long as Nicholas follows me well, the synchronization rate will naturally not fall below the limit.”
Even though Helen said it so easily, her initial deep dive into the Taiji Abyss had trapped her for a long time.
Her ‘Outer’ was not originally present but was a shell given to her by Grandmother… It took a long time to slowly form a perfect whole with the ‘Inner.’
Han Dong made a forward gesture, “Got it, let’s go~”
“Nicholas, don’t you need to prepare? Soul separation is not an easy matter.”
Han Dong responded directly with practical action.
Accompanied by the glowing Yellow Mark on the back of his right hand, the body surface was enveloped in a faint yellow mist… A faceless, oxygenless soul body directly and perfectly separated from the body, smoothly without any obstruction.
“Yellow Mark! No wonder… I wonder how Nicholas plans to control the body?”
“Well, I need to pick a reliable subordinate.”
For the bodiless body, Han Dong only needed to give it a [Master].
There were quite a few trustworthy objects he could choose from in the Prison World,
Of course, the Count with a strong subjective consciousness was directly excluded, to avoid causing unnecessary trouble in the abyss.
Han Dong quickly chose the best candidate.
A brain exuding a mythological aura was injected into the body.
“Doctor, just follow Miss Helen’s ‘Outer’ well, if any unexpected situation arises, adapt accordingly.”
“Understood. It’s my honor to experience an abyss personally designed by [Second Prophet]!
I will do my best to analyze the operation and construction principles of Taiji Abyss and strive to integrate this design concept into your world, Lord.”
What Han Dong wanted was just that,
Mere experience was far from enough, [obtaining] is what matters.
As the body and soul stepped into the two entrances, their connection was immediately severed.
During the early descent, Han Dong actually achieved a synchronization rate of 100%, even matching the frequency of his steps perfectly.
Helen wasn’t too surprised, as this was just the beginning… As the individual delves deeper, such synchronization will slowly magnify with a small mistake until completely lost.
However… a half hour passed
Han Dong’s synchronization rate was still 100%, even higher than hers.
“How… how did you do it?”
“Miss Helen is referring to synchronized actions? The Doctor is my [Confidant], his brain is far more complex than any Migo.
He can achieve a perfect replica of me, aligning with my actions completely, without any deviation… [Deviation] is something we who do research must manage well from the start.”
“No Migo can compare? Could it be that legendary Migo… such a being willingly works for you?”
“The Doctor is indeed related to that legendary Migo and is also the most loyal Demon under my command, possessing a good sense of the larger picture.
He knows well that following me is definitely more promising and interesting than dominating the Migo race.
If Miss Helen has such thoughts, you can break the ties with the witches and come have some fun with me… I will certainly give you the best treatment.
Moreover, you can bring a group of good sisters from the Dreamlands, and pets to join you, I can build an area similar to the Witch Conference for you all.”
Helen quickly waved her hand,
Grandmother won’t let me leave~ Besides, Sister Sally would definitely have objections too.
I must stay here, and if necessary, take over Grandmother’s responsibility to bear the tasks of the entire Conference.”
I would not dare to abduct the current Element… Of course, if Miss Helen ever has this thought in the future, feel free to find me anytime.”
Han Dong was still quite aware of his place,
He was not qualified yet to have the Element work for him, but the future is uncertain.
Maintaining a 100% synchronization rate,
they descended through the Taiji Abyss for three full days and nights, even encountering the influence of ‘Yin-Yang Changes,’ but the synchronization rate remained unaffected.
The Doctor even imprinted the structure of the abyss perfectly in his brain to be analyzed later.
Perhaps in the future, a similar abyss could be created to seal some dangerous items or imprison dangerous prisoners.
When he stepped down the last stair.
The bodies and souls originally separated in two different abysses magnetically attracted each other and rapidly united as one.
When the Real Demon Eye peered into the depths,
they immediately saw two familiar figures and a terrifying presence enshrouded in Forbidden Secret Methods, impossible to see through directly.
Meanwhile, Han Dong’s arm involuntarily pointed forward.
The last piece of the hand part’s Remnant Pages, besides the brain part, was right ahead.
