Above all spirits

Chapter 9 At the Summit of Mount Tai, Drawing Innate Qi

Following Werner's explanation.

Having gained a deeper understanding of power, Gu Yun began to make plans.

He planned to divide the assimilation power into four stages.

The first stage is intervention.

It allows for complete control over when and where to interrupt coverage, enabling local assimilation.

He has already reached this stage.

It's only a matter of time before I can use it proficiently.

Poor Werner hasn't even reached that stage yet.

It's really terrible.

Werner: You're amazing, you're so arrogant!

The second stage is introspection.

Werner once mentioned that consciousness can actually attach to the soul matter. Many beings in the gamma dimension attach their consciousness to the soul matter and circulate it within their bodies, thereby examining whether their bodies have any hidden ailments or other discomforts.

Some blacksmiths can even more precisely control the soul essence to enchant weapons.

Even more advanced ones can create some simple powers!

In fact, power is easy to understand.

In Gu Yun's view, it was akin to supernatural power.

The assimilative power that Werner possessed could be described as a natural gift.

Since there are innate factors, there must also be acquired factors.

Gu Yun doesn't need to think that far ahead for now; his first priority is to practice attaching his consciousness to his soul essence.

This enabled him to master the analysis.

However, there was one point that Gu Yun still had doubts about and needed to address.

It means that although the soul matter is in the gamma dimension, it is like oxygen in the air.

Theoretically, using the Assimilation Power causes a tiny amount of soul matter to rapidly travel through the target's body without causing any harm, just like taking a normal breath.

It is almost impossible for the other party to detect it.

But what if the other party knows in advance and is prepared?

Or rather, those in high positions.

It already has a large amount of soul matter stored within it.

There is no need to collect the minuscule amount of soul matter in the air.

It is entirely possible to implement an internal loop.

Would they prevent their bodies from being in a state of isolation under certain special circumstances?

Because if I put myself in their shoes, I would do the same thing.

Does that mean my powers become ineffective?

Most likely.

Phase Three: Memory Replication

These are some of the theories of Gu Yunyuan's world.

In fact, the human brain has the function of passive memory.

In other words, your brain records everything you see and hear.

However, the brain filters this information.

Things deemed unimportant will be compressed, while things deemed more important will be put on the table.

Ordinary people can only access the files on their desktop.

They can't open compressed files.

But there are always some exceptionally gifted people who can.

That kind of person is the kind of person Gu Yun knows who has a photographic memory.

Since there are precedents, it is highly likely that they will also hold true in this world.

The original world consensus was that the brain is the carrier of memory.

In fact, Gu Yun believed that the world was the same.

The soul is merely a medium for recording memories.

That's why if a person loses their entire soul, their memories will have no future.

Because it is impossible to enter the data.

Does the soul have a save function?

The answer is yes.

Since the soul is the medium for recording memories, it must have backups.

Werner once mentioned that the cultivation of the soul requires entering the Omega dimension to absorb soul matter and thus increase its concentration.

If memories don't exist, how can one cultivate their soul?

Therefore, there must be a backup of memories somewhere in the soul.

Gu Yun is not a genius.

He cannot have a photographic memory.

However, he can review past events to achieve the same effect as photographic memory.

It's just a little less efficient.

Werner once said that the soul is a very magical thing; although it has a low status, it has many derivative functions.

Gu Yun believed this was one of them.

This is the necessary path for him to achieve assimilation and advancement in the future.

Change the prerequisite condition from "real-time contact" to "previously contacted"!

This is a qualitative change!

Finally, there is the fourth stage: energy efficiency.

The fourth stage mainly focuses on the maintenance of the assimilation power.

Optimal utilization efficiency is achieved through selective assimilation, thereby extending the duration of use.

For example, take the staff in front of us. They only need to assimilate the clothes, appearance, and body shape. There is no need to assimilate the internal parts of their bodies.

This wastes soul matter and increases the burden of maintaining assimilation, inevitably reducing the duration.

Now that these four stages have been determined.

So let's set our sights on mastering the first stage and learning introspection to reach the second stage.

Ugh.

Gu Yun sighed softly.

They say a master leads you through the door.

Spiritual practice depends on the individual.

My master led me to the door and then left.

One key was left behind.

You also have to be responsible for unlocking it yourself.

Werner: Achoo! Who is it?! Making fun of me again!

……

"Ding-dong-"

Gu Yun led the group out of the sightseeing elevator and headed straight for the summit of Mount Tai.

Because they were wearing work uniforms, some curious passersby did not speak up.

My colleague just frowned slightly and didn't say anything more; maybe he had something urgent to attend to.

In a corner where no one was watching, Gu Yun canceled the maintenance of his assimilation power and reverted to being a boy in black.

Arrived.

The summit of Mount Tai is Jade Emperor Peak.

Gu Yun looked around; the area was shrouded in mist.

In the distance, mountains stretch endlessly, layer upon layer.

It felt like being in a fairyland.

It truly deserves to be called the foremost of the Five Sacred Mountains.

Gu Yun sighed softly.

It's a pity he wasn't here for tourism this time, otherwise he would definitely have stopped to admire this beautiful scenery.

Next time.

Next time, I'll bring Yunyin along.

Then we can really see the magnificent scenery of Mount Tai.

Gu Yun walked to the railing and looked down at his shadow.

"What to do next?"

The shadow made a gesture of resting its chin on its fingers.

It indicates that you are thinking.

"Find a place that doesn't attract much attention first, then try to activate your innate energy with all your might and let me see what happens. Then we'll adapt to the situation."

"Theoretically, as long as one uses innate energy, one will be automatically kicked out of the Alpha Dimension and accepted by the Gamma Dimension. But this is Earth, and I don't know what will happen."

Do you want to listen to what you're saying?

Your two statements are somewhat contradictory!

Find a place that won't attract attention.

Wouldn't activating my innate energy attract attention?

It's a pity I don't have the fourth stage of assimilation power, otherwise theoretically I could just go to the top and become any building material, and then activate my innate energy.

Why is it that his innate energy is the same color as his soul?

This is so eye-catching!

If it were white, it would blend perfectly into the environment.

However, if he were given the choice, he would still choose gold.

People tend to gravitate towards the side that is stronger.

That would give me a certain sense of security.

and confidence.

Fight!

It's less attention-grabbing than having nine dragons pulling a coffin.

Anyway, I don't know how long it will take to come back.

"Power: Assimilation!"

Werner: ?

Gu Yun gripped the iron railing with one hand and then controlled the coverage of his powers.

Let it cover only its own face.

moment.

An iron mask was then embedded in Gu Yun's face.

The mask simply depicts a hairy-faced, thunder god-like figure.

It's a little easier now.

He didn't want people who knew him to discover his extraordinary nature.

Because in most such cases, they will be implicated because of themselves.

And the bad aspects outweigh the bad.

some people.

The moment the mask was put on.

Isn't it also like taking off a mask?

Gu Yun closed her eyes.

No more random thoughts.

Calm down and feel your current innate body!

In fact, from the moment he emerged from his cocoon until now, he has been suppressing something within his body.

It was very indignant.

It seems that it thinks Gu Yun doesn't respect it.

"Boom."

"Boom."

"Boom."

As time passes slowly.

five minutes.

ten minutes.

The noise from the surrounding tourists gradually faded away.

Instead, there was the rhythmic beating of a heart.

And the faint sound of blood and qi churning within the body.

gradually.

Gu Yun felt it.

No, it's them.

They were cheering.

They are dancing.

They coil around their own meridians.

They circulate beside their own bones.

They move through their own flesh and blood.

they!

Everywhere!!!

they!

It belongs exclusively to Gu Yun!

Innate energy!
