Chapter 161: Inner Demon Wu Xian! (Please give me a monthly ticket! Please subscribe!)

In a trance, vague whispers sounded in my ears.

It was a sound that was hard to describe in words.

It sounded like roars, wails, cries, and screams...all these things intertwined together made people feel a splitting headache and extreme irritability.

Wu Xian, who had just recovered from the state of [oblivion], was surrounded by these sounds as soon as he came to his senses. It was as if his soul was about to be eroded and taken away by an indescribable thing. In comparison, the pain of being destroyed by the power of [annihilation] before was nothing.

Is he going to be possessed by the "Forgotten"?
No, this isn't its scent. Instead, it feels strangely familiar yet strange...

Amidst his doubts, a flash of inspiration emerged in Wu Xian's mind, and he suddenly understood the source of these whispers and indescribable things.

According to the setting of the gene lock system in Yuanzu Infinity, when the reincarnation reaches the fourth level, although the strength will be subversively improved and leaped, it will also face huge risks, which is the so-called inner demon.

There is no doubt that anyone who has read fantasy novels about cultivating immortals should be familiar with the term "inner demon". It can even be said that this is a threshold that must be crossed in many cultivation systems.

However, unlike those cultivation systems that often take years as the unit of measurement, the characteristic of the advancement of the gene lock lies in the word "fast".

People who unlock their genetic locks do not need long-term training and cultivation, nor do they have any special requirements on their mentality. As long as they have sufficient qualifications and a great desire for survival or some kind of strong obsession, they can gain tremendous power in a short period of time.

However, because of this, people who reach the fourth level with the help of the gene lock often have very serious flaws in their state of mind.

It was fine at the beginning, but once the fourth-level gene lock was turned on for a long time, a strong and violent consciousness would be generated involuntarily.

If it cannot be controlled, it will turn into a monster that knows how to destroy. As the violent consciousness is suppressed, the reincarnationist will have inner demons. Only after resolving the inner demons can he reach the intermediate level of the fourth stage and awaken his own spiritual light.

Otherwise, the reincarnator will die in madness or become a soulless walking corpse.

And at this moment, Wu Xian is facing his inner demon.

The reason why it happened so suddenly was because the "Forgotten One" had previously used the power of [Forgetfulness], causing him to lose all his memories in a short period of time.

It just so happened that at that time, Wu Xian was under the sun's rays, and his iron body involuntarily absorbed stellar energy. Even the genetic lock that had just broken through the fourth level was running at full power, leading to the birth of violent consciousness.

Then, due to the power of [Forgetfulness], his violent consciousness was suppressed invisibly, which caused the inner demon to appear, forcing him to face the difficulties that most of the four beginners could not overcome in advance.

"What the hell is going on?"

After figuring out the key to everything, Wu Xian felt speechless. He looked at the surrounding environment and found that this place was very similar to the mysterious space. It was all white. It should be the illusory space projected by his mind.

At this moment, he felt a strong murderous intent coming from behind him.

Turning around, I saw a black figure standing opposite me. Both the appearance and the figure were exactly the same. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a clone.

However, the area below the neck was as black as ink, as if he was wearing a black tights, and there was a sense of madness and violence in his temperament, which made Wu Xian feel a little strange.

"Hehehehe... Hello, my true self."

The other person raised his lips in a mocking arc: "It's our first meeting, there's nothing much to entertain you with, so why not just offer my hospitality."

With that, two fiery red rays of light shot out from his eyes. These were the Kryptonians' most commonly used energy attack skill—heat vision. Wu Xian dodged sideways, feeling the scorching heat, and guessed that this spiritual world could simulate real-world abilities.

So he didn't bother to say any nonsense, he just clenched his fist and sped up, punching the man who was obviously the embodiment of his inner demon, trying to defeat him with violence and temporarily free himself from this mental illusion.

As for completely defeating the inner demon and directly reaching the fourth intermediate stage...

It's better to just go to bed. Not to mention that he has just entered the fourth stage and has not yet fully understood the capabilities of the gene lock at this stage. Advancing rashly will only cause endless troubles.

Even if he really has this plan and ability, the opponent's inner demon will not cooperate obediently. In nine out of ten cases, he will play a game of hide-and-seek. Without wearing him down for a year or two, he will never easily launch a decisive battle.

Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom————!!!
The fierce battle was accompanied by the roar of terrifying power, and the stirred air continued to expand and exploded into white clouds.

The powerful speed, strength and explosive power make it impossible to capture the figures of the two people. Every collision of their limbs will form an astonishingly powerful shock wave.

If it were in reality, it would probably have turned into a scene of devastation by now.

However, in this pure white spiritual world, the void is extremely stable, and not even a noticeable vibration can be felt.

Soon, as if realizing that their physical strength was equally matched, Wu Xian finally stopped insisting on close combat and started energy attacks instead.

In addition to the Kryptonians' heat vision and freezing breath, there were also various elemental words from the dragon world, as well as various magical powers of the dark horse minions. In the end, they were all resolved head-on by the opponent's inner demons with the same moves.

Buzz buzz buzz————x2
The four heat rays collided with each other, condensing into a huge red sphere in mid-air. Finally, because the energy could not be suppressed, it turned into a mushroom cloud that boiled up.

The blazing flames rushed out over a radius of ten thousand meters in the blink of an eye, dyeing a large area of pure white space red, and then disappeared in an instant, revealing two figures floating and confronting each other in the air.

"Hehehe! Stop struggling. I can do everything you can do, and I can't do anything you can't do... either. But every attack between us consumes all your mental strength. Once too much is consumed, your soul will become extremely weak, and that will be the time for me to take over your position."

The inner demon Wu Xian said confidently.

"Ha! It's just psychic power. You can have as much of that as you want. Believe it or not, I can fight you for a whole year."

Wu Xian sneered in response, but he also knew that the other party was not bluffing.

At this moment, it is a battle of mind and consciousness. Neither of them has a physical body, but the other party is his own inner demon, so no matter whether it is physical combat or various energy attacks, it is his own mental power that is consumed.

After getting something for free, he still wants to turn the tables... How shameless!
Thinking of this, Wu Xian couldn't help but grit his teeth. But at this moment, he seemed to have thought of something and asked the inner demon tentatively, "By the way, do you know what classical martial arts is?"

"Ok?"

Wu Xian, the inner demon, frowned upon hearing this and asked in confusion, "Are you talking about the Emperor's uncle? Why are you bringing this up for no reason? Are you trying to figure out if I inherited all your memories?"

Very good, it seems that he really doesn’t know... In that case, there is no need for me to talk about martial ethics!

Taking a deep breath, Wu Xian looked up at the pure white sky above and shouted at the top of his voice: "Guangzhi...Ah! Wu Xian, save me!!"
