Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand

"You have to concentrate fully. Can't you spare even a little attention?" Nasus frowned slightly, with a hint of worry and confusion in his tone.

Bai Yun smiled softly and shook his head: "That's not the case. After all, it's not me who is evolving, but the world consciousness. If I could split myself, there wouldn't be so much trouble."

Nasus suddenly realized: "I see. I thought you were the one who controlled the entire evolution process."

Bai Yun spread his hands helplessly: "If only I had that ability, I wouldn't have to worry about this."

Suddenly, Nasus seemed to remember something. He slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "Brother Yun, you don't know how to split yourself, but I do!"

Bai Yun was stunned for a moment, then asked in confusion: "How did you do that? When did you learn it?"

Nasus explained: "During the three years of seclusion, I have not been idle. I have been working hard to absorb the remaining inheritance and memories of the Death Godhead. Then I discovered a cultivation method called 'Death Devouring'."

"Death Devour?!" Bai Yun was shocked. He was very familiar with this name. He almost fell into the hands of this evil magic in his previous life.

Nasus saw Bai Yun's reaction and asked in surprise: "Brother Yun, have you heard of this magic?"

Bai Yun nodded, his face solemn: "Not only have I heard of it, I remember it vividly! Tell me quickly, what exactly is this magic?"

Nasus continued to explain: "The main function of this magic is to devour, devour everything of others! The person who is devoured by death, his thoughts, personality, divine power, soul, cognition, everything will be distorted and become my private property."

Bai Yun took a breath of cold air. This was too scary!

Nasus went on to say: “After I devour the other person, I can choose two ways to utilize his existence. First, I can choose to become him and inherit everything from him, including his luck, talent, karma, fate, and so on.”

"Second, I can refine him into my clone. This clone may not even know that he is a clone. Before I activate him, all his actions are his own. However, as soon as I activate him, he will completely become my puppet!"

Bai Yun felt horrified after hearing this. This was even more terrifying than possessing another's body!

He took a deep breath and said with lingering fear: "Huh... That was close! I didn't expect that after being devoured, I would become like this. No wonder Silas Savoy wanted to devour me instead of killing me directly."

Nasus consoled him, “Brother Yun, you don’t have to worry too much. Although this Death Devourer is terrifying, it also has a huge flaw. That is, it can only devour three people at most, and each devouring will come at a huge price. Regardless of success or failure, you will permanently lose 30% of your own essence and lifespan!”

Bai Yun said solemnly: "Nasus, this magic is too evil. I won't practice it! And you are not allowed to practice it either!"

Nasus shook his head. “Brother Yun, don’t worry. I don’t plan to practice this magic. After studying it, I created a method of clones. I call it: Soul Clone.”

"Soul clone?" Bai Yun became interested and asked, "What kind of clone method is this?"

Nasus explained: "A soul clone, as the name implies, is an avatar condensed with soul power. It is not difficult to condense this kind of avatar. The only disadvantage is that it has no physical body and can only exist in the form of a soul. Therefore, it must consume its own soul power all the time when walking in the world."

At this point, Nether paused, then said excitedly: "But I found a solution! My martial soul has the ability to absorb soul power. I can use the soul-sucking attack to replenish the soul power consumed by the soul clone."

"Moreover, this soul clone can also practice, and the results of practice can be completely absorbed by the main body!"

"Sure!" Bai Yun's eyes lit up and he said excitedly, "This is tailor-made for us! Haha..."

Bai Yun suddenly thought of something and paced back and forth. Nasus's discovery gave him a bold idea.

“Nasus, you said…” Bai Yun stopped, his eyes gleaming, “My Desert Death God martial spirit is essentially a part of my soul, so can I separate the martial spirit and condense it into a soul clone?”

Nasus was stunned. He had never thought of such a possibility. The separation of martial souls was unheard of. If it was not handled properly, it might even damage the soul and cause irreversible damage.

“Brother Yun,” Nasus frowned, his worry evident in his words, “even if you can really separate your martial soul and form a soul clone, once the clone encounters an accident, your original body will also be severely damaged, or even…” He paused, his voice low, “You may even lose the Desert Death God martial soul forever!”

Bai Yun was silent for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Ordinary soul clones have a short existence time and frequently consume the soul essence, which has a great impact on the evolution of the origin. But the clone formed by the Desert Death God Martial Spirit can replenish the soul power through soul-sucking attacks, and the clone can also practice normally, so it has greater potential. Otherwise, the evolution of the origin can take tens of thousands or millions of years. Wouldn't I be trapped and die of exhaustion?"

Nasus carefully weighed the pros and cons, and finally sighed helplessly: "You are right, but the risk..."

Bai Yun patted his shoulder and said firmly: "Fortune comes with risk! How do you know it won't work if you don't try? I have a feeling that this path might really work!"

Nasus looked at Bai Yun's determined eyes and knew he could not dissuade him. He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Brother Yun, since you have made up your mind, I will definitely support you with all my strength! I will protect you and do my best to ensure your safety!"

Bai Yun sat cross-legged, slowly closed his eyes, and began to look inward. His consciousness gradually sank into his own spiritual world, and a golden desert appeared before his eyes, vast and boundless, full of desolation and loneliness.

In the center of the desert, there stands a huge figure. It is a monster with a dog's head and a human body, holding a huge battle axe. It is completely black and exudes a cold aura. It is Bai Yun's martial soul - the Desert Death God!

Feeling the terrifying pressure from the Desert Death God, Bai Yun was filled with awe. He knew that if he wanted to detach his martial soul, he had to face this powerful force.

"Come on!" Bai Yun took a deep breath, mobilized all his soul power, and shrouded the Desert Death.

With the infusion of soul power, the Desert Death God seemed to be awakened. His huge body began to tremble violently. Waves of terrifying energy emanated from it, impacting Bai Yun's spiritual world.

"Not good!" Bai Yun's face changed. He underestimated the resistance of the Desert Death God.

"Roar--"

The Desert Reaper let out a deafening roar, and the huge battle axe slammed towards Bai Yun's consciousness at lightning speed.

"Danger!" Nasus had been protecting Baiyun. When he saw this scene, his face suddenly changed and he exclaimed in surprise.

Bai Yun only felt a darkness in front of his eyes, and an irresistible force came over him, and his consciousness was instantly swallowed up by this force.

“Brother Yun!”

Outside, Nasus was horrified to find that Bai Yun's body was shaking violently, his face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead.

“Damn it! How could this happen!” Nasus was extremely anxious, but he could do nothing. Soul separation was an extremely dangerous thing. If you were not careful, it would cause irreversible consequences. He did not dare to intervene.

"Roar--"

In Bai Yun’s spiritual world, the Desert Death God let out a deafening roar, and the huge battle axe, with destructive power, chopped fiercely at Bai Yun’s consciousness.

"puff--"

Bai Yun only felt that his consciousness seemed to be torn apart, and the severe pain made him spit out blood.

“Hahaha… How dare you, an ignorant human being, dream of stripping me of my power!” The Desert Death God’s voice was filled with mockery and disdain. “Let me devour you completely and make you a part of me!”

Terrifying energy fluctuations raged in Baiyun's spiritual world, as if to destroy everything.

"No! I can't give up!" Bai Yun gritted his teeth and tried desperately to resist being devoured by the Desert Death God.

"My destiny should be controlled by myself! Desert Death God, you are nothing more than my martial spirit, my power, and I will never allow you to devour my consciousness!" Bai Yun's heart was filled with an unyielding will. He gathered all his mental strength and turned it into an invisible shield to resist the attack of the Desert Death God.

"Huh? You can actually block my casual attack?" The Desert Death God felt Bai Yun's tenacity, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, "But, that's all!"

The Desert Reaper raised his battle axe high, and violent energy gathered on the battle axe, transforming into a black soul power, which chopped down towards Baiyun's spiritual shield.

“Crack—”

Bai Yun's mental shield trembled violently, cracks appeared on it, and it was about to break.

"Brother Yun! Hold on!" Outside, Nasus' heart seemed to be tightened, and Bai Yun's weakness was clearly transmitted to his perception. He knew that this was a matter of life and death. If Bai Yun could not resist the devouring of the Desert Death, they would all be doomed!

“Let’s fight!” Nasus gritted his teeth, a trace of determination flashed through his mind, “I am Brother Yun’s clone, my soul power may be able to help him! Even if I fail, the worst that can happen is death. If Brother Yun dies, I will die too!”

Nasus no longer hesitated, closed his eyes, and injected all the soul power accumulated from his Soul-Draining Strike into Baiyun's sea of ​​consciousness.

"boom--

With the blessing of Nasus's huge soul power, Bai Yun's mental power surged, the broken shield was instantly repaired, and became more solid.

"What?!" The Desert Death God was shocked and angry. He had never thought that a human being could burst out with such powerful strength.

"Break it for me!" Bai Yun roared, controlling his mental power and transforming it into an invisible giant hand, tightly grasping the axe of the Desert Reaper.

"Roar—don't even think about it!" The Desert Death struggled desperately, trying to break free from the white clouds.

"Peel it off for me!" Bai Yun tried his best to peel the Desert Death away from his consciousness bit by bit...

Bai Yun only felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and then he lost consciousness.

"Brother Yun! Brother Yun! How are you!" Nasus' anxious voice rang in Bai Yun's ears.

Baiyun slowly opened his eyes and found himself lying on the familiar white sand in the Secret Realm of Time.

"Secret Realm of Time? How did we get to the Secret Realm of Time?" Bai Yun asked in confusion.

“That’s right. You are in a very dangerous situation now. You need to refine the Desert Death God Martial Spirit as soon as possible, otherwise your consciousness will be devoured by it sooner or later.” Nasus opened his eyes and said in a deep voice, “The Secret Realm of Time can buy you more time.”

After saying this, Nasus quickly passed on his self-created secret method of soul clone to Baiyun through the transmission of thoughts.

"So that's how it is, it can actually be done this way!" Bai Yun's eyes flashed.

He took a deep breath, calmed his excitement, and then began to try to practice this secret technique according to the records in ancient books.

Time passed by bit by bit, Bai Yun was immersed in cultivation, completely forgetting himself.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Yun suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"It's done!" He growled, and formed a strange mark with his hands. The vast soul power in his body surged out and transformed into mysterious runes, condensing into a huge formation in front of him.

"Soul clone, condense!" Bai Yun shouted softly, and displayed the secret technique of soul clone that he had practiced for a long time.

A blinding white light lit up between his eyebrows, and then an illusory figure that looked exactly like him but emitting a faint golden light walked out of his body.

This figure is the soul clone cultivated by Bai Yun!

Bai Yun carefully injected a wisp of his spirit into his soul clone. The clone suddenly opened his eyes and looked around. A strong aura flashed by. He clenched his fist, feeling the surging power in his body, turned his head to look at Bai Yun, and knelt on one knee respectfully: "Clone, meet me!"

Bai Yun nodded with satisfaction. The strength of this clone far exceeded his expectations. He stepped forward to help the clone up and chuckled, "No need to be polite."

“You two, are you acting?” Nasus couldn’t stand it anymore and complained, “Aren’t both you the clone and the real you? And you’re being so formal. Someone who doesn’t know would think you’re brothers who have been separated for many years.”

Bai Yun and his clone looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter. Nasus rolled his eyes. These two were really good at acting.
