Chapter 412: Unbroken Connection
Du Ge was completely submerged in the water, but the Sea God martial soul, which looked like Paul, floated on the surface. The seawater spread out, creating a vast ocean, making it hard to distinguish whether this place was a wilderness or a sea.
Lather looked enviously at the Sea God floating on the water and sighed, "The King's martial soul is even stronger than before."
Leen glanced at the black tiger behind him.
Compared to the majestic and powerful Sea God, his black tiger looked like a docile little kitten.
He couldn't help but twitch his mouth and said dejectedly, "The King says martial souls have no ranks, but no matter how much ours grow, they can't compare to his!"
"Years of enduring humiliation have forged the King's incredibly strong willpower and mental power. Moreover, he is more diligent than all of us combined. It's only natural that he is stronger than us..."
Reg glanced at the faintly visible figure of Du Ge at the bottom of the pool and said in a muffled voice, "The King may not say it, but I can feel his pain when he breaks his own limbs. Submerging his body in the pool must be to alleviate the pain."
Everyone fell silent at these words.
Then, they tacitly spread out, silently guarding Du Ge.
Upon closer observation, it was clear that everyone's attention was on Grand Duke Lynch.Obviously.
The followers who had come out of the prison trusted Grand Duke Lynch the least.
Grand Duke Lynch heard their conversation and saw their actions. He snorted disdainfully, thinking, "If it really comes to a fight, do you think you can stop me?"
But at this moment, he dared not make any rash moves.
He knew better than anyone why Holly chose the pool.
It wasn't to alleviate pain but because the pool could maximize his combat power.
The Battle of the Rhine River was a lifelong pain for Grand Duke Lynch.
To be honest, even now, he felt a faint pain in his rear whenever he drank water...
...
After calming himself, Du Ge opened his personal interface, looking at the mental power data, and tried to split the Sea God martial soul again.
This time, he didn't choose to split the Sea God martial soul in half but tried to separate a hand first, just like he had split his own body.
Separating a hand was much easier.
The pain of tearing his mental power was still there, but it wasn't the excruciating pain of splitting his whole body in half.
Du Ge easily detached the left hand of the martial soul from its body.
However, once the left hand of the martial soul left the body, it quickly reattached itself, like two magnets, merging back into the martial soul.
In the past few days, Du Ge hadn't made any significant moves, and the audience's enthusiasm for tipping had waned. His mental power increased very slowly, only by a few hundred or a thousand each day.
Most of the time, the mental power value remained constant throughout the day.
When the left hand detached from the body, Du Ge saw the mental power value drop by nearly two thousand in an instant, but when the detached left hand reattached, the value returned.
This proved that he had successfully split his mental power.
But the challenge was how to keep the mental power split for a long time.
After pondering for a moment, Du Ge conducted a second experiment.
This time, after separating the left hand, he quickly retracted the Sea God martial soul into his body.
The left hand of the Sea God was left outside, floating alone.
But soon, Du Ge realized he had lost control of the left hand. He couldn't inject thoughts into it, let alone manipulate it.
In a moment.
The left hand dissipated into the air.
Du Ge glanced at the interface. From the moment the left hand was separated to its disappearance, the dissipated mental power value did not return.
Du Ge sat cross-legged at the bottom of the pool, quietly reflecting on the entire process.
When the martial soul was outside, the detached left hand would return to the main body. But when the martial soul was retracted, the severed mental power lost its support and dissipated.
Did he fail?
Did he need to keep the Sea God's head outside to retain consciousness?
No, the martial soul itself didn't have consciousness. The Sea God martial soul was just a manifestation. Even if he kept the head outside, the result should still be dissipation!
Each dissipation meant losing a portion of mental power.
Even with over two million mental power, Du Ge couldn't afford such waste. After all, he had accumulated this mental power through several battles on the Alien Star Battlefield.
Unfortunately.
The Power of Faith couldn't be brought into the Alien Star Battlefield. Otherwise, with the Power of Faith, his mental power would grow faster than with Pan-Universal Entertainment, and he could experiment with splitting his mind without any worries.
Maybe he could try not completely severing the body, or perhaps leave a bridge as an intermediary...
With that thought, Du Ge immediately put it into action.
Du Ge once again manifested the Sea God martial soul, and the left hand of the Sea God martial soul regrew, looking no different from before.
After all, with over two million mental power, losing two thousand was negligible.
Du Ge severed the left hand of the martial soul again.
However, this time, he didn't retract the Sea God martial soul. Instead, as the left hand reattached, he separated a thread of water from the sea to catch the severed hand.
Then.
With the water thread connecting it, the left hand no longer merged with the Sea God martial soul, quietly floating on the surface of the sea.
The ocean was also a manifestation of Du Ge's mental power. Otherwise, losing a left hand wouldn't just mean a loss of two thousand mental power.
As long as it was connected to the main mental power, the left hand of the Sea God martial soul didn't care whether it was attached to the Sea God's arm or connected by a water thread...
Afterward.
Du Ge tried retracting the seawater and the Sea God, leaving only the left hand outside, connected by a water thread. He succeeded in one go.
After retracting the martial soul, the left hand, connected by a water thread, transformed into a small Sea God.
It was about twenty centimeters tall, standing on a small patch of water about a meter square, looking identical to the original martial soul.
At the same time.
Du Ge's personal interface flashed.
A new skill appeared:
"Unbroken Connection: You can remotely control the split mental power."
The skill description was very simple. It seemed neither offensive nor defensive, looking like a useless ability.
Looking at the skill description, Du Ge thought for a moment and decisively cut the water thread connecting the small martial soul.
Sure enough, with the skill, even after cutting the water thread, the small martial soul remained floating outside and didn't disappear.
Du Ge tried controlling the small Sea God martial soul. It could flexibly perform any action, the small sea beneath it could create waves, summon water dragons, and even form small water figures, just like the original martial soul...
But what use was this?
To scout for information?
Any random martial soul could destroy it!
Of course.
He could split off a martial soul with over ten thousand mental power, but his martial soul couldn't attack physical entities. If he sent it out and encountered a powerful enemy, who would compensate for his loss if it got destroyed?
Du Ge looked up at the small martial soul outside, frowning tightly. Was this a useless skill?
This wasn't what he had imagined!
Just then.
A giant white bird flew over the martial soul.
Du Ge had a sudden inspiration and controlled the small martial soul to rocket towards the white bird.
Pop!
With a crisp sound.
The familiar feeling of body possession returned. The small martial soul with nearly two thousand mental power easily invaded the giant bird's body.
Then.
Du Ge's perspective shifted, gaining a view from the sky.
His mental power had possessed a bird.
Du Ge had no experience being a bird. After successfully possessing it, he forgot to flap the wings, causing the white bird to plummet straight down.
He quickly flapped the wings, controlling the bird to fly away from Grand Duke Lynch and the others.
Du Ge often multitasked, so controlling a bird with part of his attention was a piece of cake.
Soon, the giant bird flapped its wings and flew away.
Without Du Ge's command, Grand Duke Lynch and the others, though curious about what had happened to the bird with the small martial soul inside, dared not intercept it.
Under the pool, Du Ge couldn't hide his excitement!
It worked!Nôv(el)B\\jnn
As long as Pan-Universal Entertainment didn't retrieve the split mental power when recalling the main soul, he could leave a presence in this world.
