Chapter 20: Fusion! (Second update, seeking recommendations!)

  Compared to Chen Hao, Li Yuan is clearer about what this confrontation between souls means.

  Crazy Li Yuan, a rare talent in the world, stood at the pinnacle of science at the age of 30. After feeling his body decline, he devoted all his energy to pursuing immortality and eternal life. Using science to change his physical quality, he spent five years mastering the ancient Chinese martial arts he had collected, but found that it was impossible to achieve longevity. He then began to practice Taoism, but unfortunately, despite collecting many Taoist techniques from countless mysterious ancient ruins in China, the Earth filled with high-tech radiation was no longer suitable for practicing Taoism. Li Yuan did not give up, and he began to explore the deep sea, seeking another way to achieve immortality.

  Luckily and coincidentally, he discovered the vividly existing female corpse that had been unknown for tens of thousands of years. This gave Chen Huan a nearly perfect physical body with cellular vitality that was unimaginable. Once successfully merged into it, although it couldn't be said to have achieved true immortality, longevity was certain. Thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, or even longer were all possible!

  Now it has come to the last step, how can Li Yuan possibly give up?

  It is precisely because of the two people's respective obsessions that they can both grit their teeth and endure this inhuman suffering, especially Chen Huan. Compared to the arrogant and invincible Li Yuan, he is much younger and his memories are far fewer than Li Yuan's. Therefore, Chen Huan has more memories to merge, which also means that he has to endure even greater pain.

  As time went on, Chen Huan fell into a completely passive situation. Under Li Yuan's full force of memory fusion, even with Chen Huan's strong heart, he began to be unable to bear it, and his mind was on the verge of collapse...

  But every time he was about to lose consciousness, a strange rumbling sound like the drumming of a morning bell would mysteriously appear in the depths of his soul, miraculously awakening his spirit. After waking up, it would silently and quietly disappear, as if it had never appeared before...

  So it went back and forth countless times, in this situation where one side waxes while the other wanes, Li Yuan's original absolute advantage began to tilt, and gradually, the weaker Chen Huan instead gained the upper hand.

  ……

  Rumble...

  As time passed minute by minute, Chen Huan's memories grew more and more numerous. When all of Li Yuan's memories appeared in his mind and were fully linked together, a thunderous roar of terror suddenly burst forth from his brain. In an instant, all the pain suddenly vanished.

  What accompanied it was a kind of joy that Chen Huan had never experienced before, a spiritual joy, as if he had been reborn, allowing Chen Huan to clearly feel the extremely mysterious and subtle changes in his heart.

  At the same time, he also clearly realized what kind of existence he was!

  "Hmm..."

  Chen Hao didn't know that at this moment, in the depths of his soul, a voice so faint it was almost imperceptible let out a sigh, as if it had lost all its strength, and then hid itself in the deepest part of Chen Hao's soul, never to make another sound.

  ……

  "Li Yuan is me, I am Chen Hao... Heaven's gift... It turns out that Father and Mother have never lied to me..."

  In his mind's eye, he saw his disabled father and his exhausted mother who toiled day and night. Chen Huan's mouth twitched with a bitter smile as he muttered to himself. At this moment, he finally understood what kind of existence he was. Just as Li Yuan said, he was Li Yuan, and Li Yuan was him. If it weren't for the accident, there would be no Chen Huan.

  And now he has triumphed.

  This victory came so suddenly that Chen Huan felt a little inexplicable, because at this moment he had completely merged with Li Yuan. He was very clear that he had been on the verge of destruction many times, but had miraculously come back to life. Chen Huan himself didn't even know what that thunderous sound like a morning bell was. Chen Huan could only describe his victory as lucky. He and Li Yuan's special souls had completely merged, and he had gained control.

  Li Yuan is him, but he is Chen Hao!

  ……

  Dong...... dong......

  Another hour later, when the melodious bell rang out, Chen Huan, who was immersed in digesting his memories, slowly opened his eyes, and two bright lights flashed in his pupils. He jumped down from bed, washed up simply, and walked out of the dormitory.

  ……

  "Xiang Huang... are you okay? Last night when we came back, it seemed like you were asleep and couldn't be woken up..."

  When Chen Huan walked out of the dormitory, Xiaoling and others also happened to walk out of the dormitory, looking at Chen Huan who seemed a bit unusual.

  Xiao Ling'er looked at Chen Huan in front of her, feeling that there seemed to be a big difference, but specifically where the difference was, Xiao Ling'er couldn't say, anyway it was a bit different now, especially Chen Huan's eyes, as if two deep black whirlpools, slightly gazing at each other, making Xiao Ling'er feel like she was being drawn into them.

  "It must be overthinking, I remembered too many words yesterday, my head hurt badly, and I had two more fights, I was exhausted, now it's fine..." Chen Hao, who had never lied before, said naturally.

  After finishing speaking, even Chen Hao himself was a bit stunned, and his mouth corners helplessly revealed a wry smile as he shook his head.

  It seems that after the fusion of their souls, Chen Huan was still greatly influenced by the merged soul, and his insight, vision, wisdom, experience, and even temperament underwent tremendous changes.

  Just like the surroundings now, although nothing has changed, the feeling it brings to Chen Huan is completely different. The little spirit of the same age, in Chen Huan's eyes, has a bit of a young maid's flavor.

  "Xiang Huang, why are those people bullying you?" Just then, another girl named Xiao Xiang Li looked at Chen Huang curiously and asked.

  "I don't know, unfortunately my strength is too weak...... Alright, let's hurry up and go, don't be late." Chen Huan's expression didn't change at all, seemingly very calm as he spoke. However, those pitch-black eyes inadvertently sparkled for a moment.

  "Be careful, on our way back last night, we also heard that those people often bully others. They've suffered a loss and definitely won't let it go like this... Also, was it Xiao Jihan who instructed them? Half a year later, the outer door disciples of the Xiao family will have a trial, do you really want to challenge Xiao Jihan?" Little Ling'er said.

  "Now that I've said it, of course it's true! Don't worry about these things anymore..." Chen Hao said in a low voice after taking a light breath.

  Chen Huan, who had been holding back all along, was now filled with a strong desire for battle.

  When mentioning the challenge to Xiao Jihan, he was indeed forced to do so and had no grasp at all. After all, Xiao Jihan was a seventh-grade warrior, much stronger than him.

  When facing Xiao Jikang, Chen Huan only had an absolute advantage in speed, but his strength was far from enough. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been pinched by Xiao Jikang's one hand and fallen into danger. And Xiao Jikang was just a second-rate warrior, compared to Xiao Jihan, he was five ranks lower, so how strong would Xiao Jihan be?

  Moreover, during the fight with Xiao Jikang, if it weren't for the memory fragments that surged into his mind, allowing him to launch sharp and effective attacks, Chen Huan would have been in great danger...

  But now Chen Huan has nothing to fear!

  Many things, Chen Hao originally couldn't see through or understand, but at this moment, he was clear that he, Chen Hao, was absolutely not someone who could be bullied by a clown like Xiao Jihan!

  What does Xiaolao's heavy equipment and specialized transmission of the seven-level Gongfa "Changsheng Jue" mean?

  It means Xiao Lao attaches great importance to it. And Xiao Lao's status in the Xiao family is absolutely revered.

  Just because of this, Xiao Jihans couldn't help but think about what would happen to himself.

  Of course, Chen Hao didn't want to rely on Xiao Lao to threaten Xiao Jihuan. With his relationship with Xiao Lao, he wouldn't be driven out of the Xiao family, and that was enough.

  What's more, Chen Huan now possesses the ancient Chinese martial arts that Li Yuan had cultivated in pursuit of immortality?

  In half a year, with his innate talent, he made the most of his speed advantage and then rigorously trained in powerful ancient martial arts for another half year. Relying on his speed and clever techniques, combined with the formidable anti-impact strength of his perfect physique, even a seventh-grade warrior would be no match for him.

  Silence is golden, but one cry can shock the world!

  Fists are the truth, Chen Hao wants to let Xiao Jihan and everyone who bullied him know that he, Chen Hao, is not a soft persimmon to be taken advantage of!
