My health recovery is incredibly fast.

This is equivalent to having two sets of elemental shells.

Xia Zuo touched the square colored blocks on the spirit's body.

He pulled down a perfectly square red block...

? !

Xia Zuo stared incredulously at the colored block in his hand, and then, as if possessed, pressed it onto the corresponding part of his body.

The spirit's hand loosened its grip, but the colored block didn't fall.

Xia Zuo glanced at his character template.

...

【Elemental Body (Spiritual Form)】

Completeness: 98%, Unavailable

【Elemental Shell (Body)】

Completeness: 2%, Unavailable

...

It really is possible to put the elemental shell of a spirit onto a physical body!

Xia Zuo used both hands to pluck off the colored blocks one by one and pat them onto his body. On the character template, one of the two [Completeness] values ​​kept decreasing, while the other steadily increased.

When the last piece of color was stuffed onto the buttocks of the body by Xia Zuo, the integrity of the [Elemental Shell (Body)] reached 100%.

Xia Zuo immediately broke out of his meditative state, opened his eyes on the desk and chair, and entered a shallow meditative state.

A nearly transparent, hazy outer shell appeared on the body; this was the complete version of the universal elemental shell, before any alchemical tools were added.

One person possesses two elemental bodies!!

The candles at the shrine originally had this function.

Shazo sat in the chair, stroking his hair and thinking for a long time before finally deciding to tell Christo about it.

The temple has an extremely high level of enthusiasm for exploring spiritual artifacts.

Xia Zuo failed, but another experimenter will take over.

If the next experimenter also added the powder from the shrine candle during the process of condensing the elemental shell, and then revealed to the temple that he had an additional layer of elemental shell on his spirit body.

As the previous test subject, Xia Zuo would become a suspect.

This is a classic prisoner's dilemma.

Moreover, Xia Zuo was certain that the fact that the spirit used an elemental body had absolutely nothing to do with cheat codes.

The style of the cheat system is quite obvious: it provides feedback when something happens and asks the host for their choice.

If a cheat code were to condense an elemental body for a spirit, Xia Zuo would definitely receive a question like "Please select whether to perform this operation".

Therefore, it can be concluded that the shrine candles were the culprits, revealing the changes in the spirits to the temple without exposing the existence of the cheat system.

Shazo put down Christo's ring, tidied up the desk, and stuffed the pendant, which he hadn't used much, into his alchemy pouch.

One minute later, Christo's secret message arrived.

Xia Zuo glanced at the message, said something to An Ru'er, and then used his Windwalking spell to fly to the top floor of the Boxin Building.

...

Inside the office, a faint crimson glow emanated.

Christo arrived here first.

A mage, whose figure was hidden in a large cloak, appeared beside her.

“Shazo, this is the mage who controls the shrine of Devantana, a high tower mage of the detection school, you can call her Rena.”

Christo summoned three sofas, invited the two to sit down, and then said to Shazo:

"As you probably guessed, Rena is my descendant. She will keep your secret."

"Good day, Lady Reina." Xia Zuo bowed slightly.

Reina leaned forward slightly in return.

Christo stared at Shazo for a few seconds, observing the elemental shell on his body for a while. "Shazo, you and Rena will meet in Soul Vision. She will briefly check your spiritual condition and witness the process of you transferring your elemental shell."

“Yes, Your Excellency.” Xia Zuo nodded. “I’m ready.”

Rena leaned back in her chair, her breathing became steady, and her eyes, hidden in the hood, closed.

Xia Zuo also entered a meditative state.

This was the first time he had seen someone else's spirit through his clairvoyant vision.

Rena's spirit appeared beside Shazo, corresponding to their positions in reality. In her hands she held the shrine of Divantana, the candlelight as soft as the spring sunshine melting winter snow.

A warm and comfortable feeling was slowly flowing across Xia Zuo's spirit body.

Rena's spirit body was also completely naked, but it had no facial features or obvious gender characteristics, and it was difficult to distinguish between the front and back.

She walked around Xia Zuo's spirit body, turning his head to determine where his front was.

She nodded to Xia Zuo and gestured with her right hand on his spirit and body.

Xia Zuo understood; Reina was asking him to demonstrate how to transfer an elemental body to a spirit.

Xia Zuo squatted down and skillfully removed the square colored blocks from the body and installed them on the spirit body.

Rena's movements as she held the shrine visibly swayed, as if she hadn't expected the method of transferring her elemental body to be so simple...

The two remained in the realm of soul-seeing vision for about half an hour. Xia Zuo demonstrated it twice, and then they both exited the meditative state.

Xia Zuo opened his eyes on the sofa.

Rena gently rubbed her fingers, hidden in her sleeves, summoning a patch of silver sand that formed a message:

“I saw his elemental body through soul vision, and it was no different from a normal elemental body.”

"The method of transferring the elemental shell is to remove the shell components from the body or spirit and place them in the correct position on the correct spirit or body. The rules for component placement are consistent with the research results of existing theories."

Christo rested her chin on the back of her right hand, examining Shazo with interest. "So, you can now possess two elemental bodies at the same time, right?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Christo said:

"We need to conduct further research."

"I won't take that pendant back. But I have one condition."

"You need to condense a second elemental body as soon as possible, preferably of a different type. After that, you need to come here and demonstrate the process of exchanging elemental bodies to us."

"Perhaps there will be other experiments that require your help, and we can discuss them in detail later."

Xia Zuo nodded. "No problem, Your Excellency. I will have the elemental bottle for condensing the elemental body ready in a week at most."

“I have a suggestion,” Rena said, weaving words with silver sand. “Give Xia Zuo a small piece of the spirit shrine candle and let him melt into the elemental bottle. Then, while the spirit body still has no elemental shell, let him condense a second elemental shell.”

Christo snapped her fingers. “Excellent suggestion, Rena. This reduces the number of variables. If the second elemental shell can’t be applied to the spirit because of the lack of candle shavings, then we’ll have to remove the second elemental shell and start all over again.”

Christo took out a crystal and placed it in front of Shazo. "Just like before, crush this crystal before you begin to condense your elemental body."

After Xia Zuo put the crystal away, she continued:

"The reward I promised you will be given to you depending on the situation after you condense your second elemental body. There may be some adjustments to be made because that item is related to the elemental body."

"Yes, sir."

Xia Zuo stood up with the two of them and was then teleported back.

...

After 6 days.

The same meditation room, the same soft couch.

108 elemental bottles reappeared in front of Xia Zuo.

He crushed the crystal, obtained the shrine candle, and after preparing himself, drank the secret medicine that would condense his elemental body.

This time, the same strange state of being unable to enter meditation and contemplation occurred again.

Xia Zuo's consciousness remained dormant in darkness for three days. When he opened his eyes again, he immediately entered a meditative state.

Sure enough, a new elemental shell appeared on the spirit body.

Following his mentor's advice, Xia Zuo chose an elemental shell specifically designed for oil alchemy.

Now, there is one set for the spirit and one set for the body.

Both use the same number of cute elements, but the rules for arranging them on their bodies are different.

Xia Zuo memorized the positions of the color blocks on the two sets of elemental shells, and then tried to swap their positions.

When he awoke from his meditative state, the elemental shell on his body had transformed into an oil-based alchemy-specific type.

It is indeed possible to possess two elemental bodies at the same time!

It just requires manual switching each time.

If only we could find a way to switch elemental shells with a mere thought.

After tidying up, Xia Zuo flew to the top floor of the Bosin Building.

...

Christo's office.

The area had been prepared in advance; an open space had been added to the room, and a carpet with magic circle patterns had been placed on the floor.

The beige carpet, its soft texture, and its warm, pleasant scent filled Xia Zuo's heart with peace as he sat cross-legged on it.

Sitting opposite Xia Zuo was Reina, who was completely wrapped in a cloak.

The low table between the two was filled with all sorts of spiritual materials.

Christo sat on the sofa beside the carpet. "Shazo, have you memorized all the key points?"

"Yes, Your Excellency."
