Fairy, wait a minute, let me explain.

Phoenix City, the former residence of the Imperial Preceptor.

Wei Wuxian suddenly opened his eyes, his expression more solemn than ever before. He manipulated his avatar to activate the immortal foundation within his body and directly escaped into the void.

As it vanished into the void, it stirred up the Bishuiyu, one of the seven northern constellations.

In an instant, a square, hazy gray wall slowly appeared, hiding Wei Wuxian inside.

This serves to shield the inside from the outside, isolate the void, and prevent others from spying on it.

When Wei Wuxian took another step, he was already high in the sky above the back mountain of the Daoist temple in Guang'an City.

Below, Luo Huanxi was carrying his original body and landing in the courtyard on the wind.

Just like yesterday, he was put into the medicine barrel. Unaware that Luo Huanxi harbored any ill will towards his true form, Wei Wuxian's avatar, Li Jingming, did not make any move.

Time passed by, second by second.

It took about three hours for Wei Wuxian to truly wake up.

He was leaning against the bathtub, the candlelight flickering in the room, and the moon and stars shining brightly outside the window.

His eyes flickered as he recalled the events before he lost consciousness.

The bad news is that there's something wrong with the body he's in, and he doesn't know where the problem comes from yet.

Good news, a blessing in disguise. Just before he fell into a coma, his powerful will surged forth, allowing him to achieve a small success in his wisdom and gain an extra idea.

It can still be upgraded to the idea of ​​will.

It belongs to the category of the wisdom path of attachment, and is a form of protection and mindfulness.

That's right, what's manipulating him to become Li Jingming isn't him, but his thoughts.

Humans think, and thinking leads to ideas that revolve around the self.

However, not all thoughts can be independently visualized. Thoughts that can be independently visualized are naturally associated with the Tao.

One of the great achievements of the Way of Wisdom is the ability to manipulate one's own independently embodied thoughts.

For example, Wei Wuxian's current protectiveness.

If he is in a crisis and needs to think about how to protect himself, he can use mindfulness to assist his thinking, which will be more effective and may make him notice things that he usually overlooks.

In-game effects include additional positive buffs.

However, the ultimate use of thoughts is to evolve into will, just like now, to act independently of oneself.

However, Wei Wuxian's current protective thought has not yet fully become his will; he can only perform passive protective actions and cannot actively think about and execute the most effective protective actions.

Once a thought becomes a will, one can open the door to practice and attempt to cultivate supernatural powers.

As a kind of obsession, the most suitable type of supernatural power to cultivate is to implant it into others.

For example, secretly implanting a protective thought into someone.

In this way, when he encounters an accident, this thought will come to mind, making him instinctively protect him.

Of course, this supernatural power is best used in conjunction with the supernatural power of concealing the world and isolating the void; otherwise, if it is discovered, you will end up losing more than you gain.

Whether this protection will ultimately condense into the attainment of wisdom depends on future opportunities.

With a sliver of his mind elsewhere, Wei Wuxian once again personally took control of his avatar, Li Jingming.

The original body did not retract this protective thought.

Although this protective thought has not yet fully become a will, it is already usable. For example, if you encounter an unclaimed puppet, you can send this protective thought over and immediately have an extra bodyguard.

He left the protective spirit on his main body, but since his main body only cultivates martial arts, it wouldn't be of any use.

Manipulating his avatar Li Jingming to escape into the void and return to Phoenix City, Wei Wuxian's expression turned serious as he thought about his original body's situation.

He never expected that his own body had a problem.

Could it be that Wei Wuxian's eventual rise to become the BOSS was due to a powerful figure having already planted a seed in his hands?

But that's impossible. He was extremely meticulous when organizing his predecessor's memories; there's absolutely no way someone could have tampered with his past self...

"You're awake?"

Luo Huanxi, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up.

Wei Wuxian immediately turned his head, hummed in agreement, and then sincerely said, "Thank you, Miss Luo."

"What... happened to you?"

Although he was wary of Luo Huanxi, the other party's behavior while he was unconscious proved that she had no ill intentions towards him.

So Wei Wuxian honestly shook his head: "I don't know."

"I... might have some leads."

"Is there any progress on Miss Luo?" Wei Wuxian immediately held his breath: "Please enlighten me."

"When you were unconscious, I first observed the Qi in your body and felt that your symptoms did not originate from within. Then I probed your consciousness and found that your soul was incomplete, as if you were missing a part of your soul and spirit?" Luo Huanxi said cautiously.

Wei Wuxian frowned again, but then slowly relaxed.

The missing soul and spirit he was lacking were in the incarnation of Li Jingming.

In reality, he doesn't lack anything.

So, is this symptom caused by the separation of the soul and the spirit?

That's possible...

But logically speaking, it shouldn't be like that. Even if someone is mentally and physically incomplete, the only thing that should be shown is that they are not intelligent, etc.

You should know that he could endure the pain of cultivating the "Sword Forging Technique", but this pain in his soul directly made him faint, and even affected his avatar Li Jingming, who temporarily lost consciousness.

Furthermore, separating one soul and one spirit for the avatar is an operation performed on his game panel.

This is, after all, a higher-dimensional existence...

Luo Huanxi observed Wei Wuxian's expression, not missing the slightest abnormality.

Actually, she had half a sentence left unsaid.

Wei Wuxian's symptoms, no matter how you look at them, are manifestations of a remnant soul repelling the body after it has possessed it.

But she really didn't dare say those words.

Although she is only at the sixth level of cultivation now, she has lived two lives after all, and this time when she came to Dongsheng Divine Continent, the person behind her gave her a semi-immortal artifact called the Dao Discussion and Tranquility Platform. It is an ancient relic with wonderful uses such as helping to calm the mind and maintain self-control. Its power is comparable to that of a modern immortal artifact!

The moment she landed on the wind carrying Wei Wuxian, Baotai spontaneously moved as a warning, and she instantly sensed that someone was watching her from the shadows.

She was truly traumatized by those powerful cultivators who held sway over the world, and she didn't even dare to entertain the thought of trying to possess Wei Wuxian.

I only dare to tell half the truth like this.

"Miss Luo, there's a hidden reason behind the missing soul and spirit, which I cannot disclose... um..."

Luo Huanxi stood up abruptly: "I can swear to the heavens that I will never reveal a single word of this matter to anyone."

As she spoke, Luo Huanxi actually made a vow to Heaven.

"Miss Luo, there's really no need for this." After Luo Huanxi finished making her vow, Wei Wuxian spoke softly, "Miss Luo has saved me twice already. If it weren't for Miss Luo bringing me back this time, I'm afraid there would have been a real problem."

This is the truth.

He had just fallen back to the first-rank martial artist level, his body riddled with wounds. If he were to faint by the lake, even if he survived by sheer luck, it would severely damage his foundation, making his path in martial arts even more difficult to climb.

Hearing the sincerity in Wei Wuxian's tone, Luo Huanxi breathed a slight sigh of relief.

She was actually prepared for the other party to suddenly attack.

Since there was no sudden attack to silence them...

So, it really wasn't possession?

What exactly is the cause of Wei Wuxian's illness?
