Chapter 1824: Chapter 438: Rebirth
"You..."
Deep Sea only had time to utter this one word.
Turing’s second punch was already on its way.
Boom!
Turing’s punch wasn’t very strong, hitting the Divine Infant without causing injury, only leaving a faint white mark. But this punch, landing in the Spiritual Sea Domain of the Deep Sea Main System, resonated with a tremendous roar!
Blackstone, targeting the spirit!
Gu Shen’s jade ring was made of "Blackstone," a material from the [Old World] that ordinary people couldn’t control.
But... the man in front of him was Turing!
The Divine Infant closed its eyes, its face full of pain.
Having withstood two punches from Turing, it didn’t retreat but continued to endure the immense mental pressure, still occupying this body.
Now Deep Sea was certain, this shell was the "newborn body" Turing had prepared for Gu Shen.
Even if I can’t use it, I won’t let Gu Shen use it!
Therefore...
He planned to destroy the Divine Infant!
This shell didn’t have a spirit residing in it. Now that he was here, given some time to familiarize himself with this body and figure out a way to "self-destruct," it shouldn’t be difficult.
"You damned Gu kid, how long are you planning to delay your spiritual descent?!"
Seeing this, Turing squinted his eyes and shouted in a bad mood, "If you’re any slower, this body might really be gone!!"
...
...
"You damned Gu kid, how long are you planning to delay your spiritual descent?!"
"If you’re any slower, this body might really be gone!!"
Gu Shen raised his head, looking at the silver-white light of the Pure Land Skytop, the vague sounds from beyond slowly entering his Spirit Sea.
He furrowed his brow, looking at the world beyond the Skytop.
Outside the Pure Land...
It was all a blur, unknown.
At this moment, he slowly reached out his palm, touching the sky, countless silver rays pouring into the umbrella stretched open by the whispering wood, into his palm, into this Pure Land.
The Divine Infant opened its eyes again.
But this time, the gaze of the Divine Infant changed again!
"Gu Shen!"
A hint of joy appeared on Chu Ling’s face.
The next moment.
The Divine Infant’s pupils clouded over with a shadow; the will of Deep Sea descended once more... immediately this shadow was expelled, replaced once more by Gu Shen’s [Truth] silver glow.
"What is going on?"
Lin Lin was stunned and speechless as he saw this scene.
"Two strands of will, vying for control over the ’Divine Infant’ body."
Turing held his fist up, hesitant to strike.
Because he wasn’t sure.
If this punch was thrown, would it land in the Spiritual Sea Domain of Deep Sea, or in Gu Shen’s Heart Lake... hitting the former would be fine, but hitting the latter would be counterproductive.
"The Divine Infant shell is for Gu Shen. The control over this body must be won by him."
Turing said in a deep voice, "However, this kid’s spiritual power is extremely formidable. Since he’s already awake, taking over this body shouldn’t be difficult."
This remark was clearly meant to reassure everyone.
Chu Ling, Lin Lin, and Gu Nanfeng weren’t relieved by this... because they also noticed.
Turing’s clenched fist never loosened!
He was also waiting for the outcome!
At this moment in the Spiritual Space of the Divine Infant, there was a frenzy, two distinct and powerful spiritual forces clashing fiercely.
Boom boom boom! Countless silver lights and shadows collided with each other!
When Gu Shen navigated the whispering wood’s branches to break through the Pure Land Skytop, he directly entered the Divine Infant’s Heart Lake.
Here was a vast area, yet to have an owner.
But a black shadow had already claimed it unceremoniously...
Gu Shen was very familiar with the aura of this shadow!
He had just recently killed the bodies of the white lizard and light!
The moment he saw Deep Sea, he acted decisively and immediately!
A strand of silver glow shot out swiftly and sharply—
Unfortunately.
Deep Sea’s reaction was fast.
This spiritual body shrouded in shadows slightly shifted to the side, dodging Gu Shen’s [Truth] slice.
Busy devouring the Divine Infant Spirit Sea, the Divine Sea slowly turned its head.
He looked grimly at the young man burning with silver brilliance.
"Gu Shen! You’re really not dead!"
The grand play of the [Old World] had already ended.
Deep Sea thought he had won—
He thought he had anticipated everything, planned for all contingencies...
It wasn’t until this moment he realized he had been outsmarted!
Meng Xizhou and Turing had put on a good show, and if not for the Spiritual Imprint left on the Tomb Ghost, he might have taken a long time to realize!
Even so, he still didn’t understand the nature of the connection between Meng Xizhou and Turing, the kind of collaboration they engaged in...
But one thing Deep Sea was sure of.
That was, the events in the [Old World], which seemed to be his initiative, were actually all part of these two’s design!
"Surprised, aren’t you?"
Gu Shen mocked expressionlessly, then raised his palm.
Countless threads of silver light swirled in his palm.
The arc light of [Truth] hovered, forming shapes, sometimes transforming into petals of lotus, sometimes into blades.
"Go!"
Gu Shen pinched two fingers together, pointing at Deep Sea.
Buzz buzz buzz!
The Spiritual Sea Domain erupted immediately, thousands of blades flying towards Deep Sea like fish swimming.
This was a spiritual battle concerning the control of the Divine Infant.
Gu Shen certainly wouldn’t hold back—
He’s never been afraid in a battle within the spirit world!
On the other side, Deep Sea didn’t retreat either.
He was originally an intangible will and spiritual body, even now, only a strand of spirit from the main system was dispersed, but it was strong enough... after all, his main body was a "data aggregate" formed by the computational power of the thousands upon thousands of citizens of the Five Continents.
