On the Seven Towers

The saint's resolute words only made Xiao Chen smile slightly.

Along with his smile, his eyes seemed to emit light. The saint was just looking at him, and she felt that she saw countless indescribable and ever-changing lights and shadows in Xiao Chen's eyes, and then she felt that she was immersed in it, a feeling of falling into a world. She fell deeper and deeper, and everything around her seemed to leave her, and only a dizzy feeling surrounded her.

It was unknown how long it took before she woke up again.

The saint subconsciously grabbed the front of her clothes with both hands: "You, what did you do to me just now?"

Xiao Chen said: "Nothing, just used the power of a saint to look carefully at you and her."

"Her? You mean, those inherited memories?" the saint asked.

"Yes."

"You invaded my mind?"

"Yes, but it shouldn't have any effect on you. I just came in to take a look in another way. You don't feel anything unusual now, right?"

The saint touched her head with both hands, shook it gently a few times, and said, "No."

"No, that's good."

"But how can you directly invade my mind like this!"

Xiao Chen leaned his head a little closer and looked into her eyes: "Can you stop me from looking at you?"

"Your eyes are on your body, how can I stop you?"

"So the mental power is the same. Since you can't stop me, I can only see you to the end." Xiao Chen said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that a strong man like you and a leader would be such a rogue."

"Do you still want to come with me?"

The Saint said: "Yes! I have made this bet, and there is no reason to regret it. If something really happens and you treat me badly, then blame me for being blind."

Xiao Chen felt that this sounded a bit awkward. Seeing the Saint's big eyes staring at him, he nodded and said: "At least you and I have no conflict of interest and I don't want to hurt you. I just probed into your soul just to understand what kind of state the inherited memory is with your consciousness."

"Then...what did you find?"

"I still need to think about it seriously. When I figure it out, I will come to you."

Xiao Chen ended the conversation with the Saint and walked out of the terrace under the complicated gaze of the other party.

Asimiro saw him walk out and didn't say much. He just asked: "Have you found the answer you want?"

"The Saint hasn't awakened yet, we still need to wait and study it." Xiao Chen said vaguely.

"Study it?"

"What I want to know may be buried deep in the Saint's memory. It's not so easy to find the answer now." Xiao Chen said.

Asimiro said: "What is your plan?"

"Of course, wait a while. If there is a chance, you can have more contact with the Saint. I am good at mental magic, maybe I can slowly awaken this part of her memory. This will also be good for you, right?"

"If that's the case, it would be the best." Asimiro nodded.

Xiao Chen followed them to eat something. The main meal of the Western Continent is very local. They are good at cooking by steaming and there are many soups and other dishes. Cooked by the chefs in the palace, they are indeed rare delicacies.

After the meal, the Saint also came back, and their discussion continued until dusk. The Saint was in better spirits than in the morning, and occasionally made a comment or two, and looked at Xiao Chen from time to time, with an urgent meaning hidden in her eyes.

When the show ended, Xiao Chen walked at the end. While no one was paying attention, the Saint walked to a position not far behind him and whispered, "Don't make me wait too long."

——————————————————

Late at night, Xiao Chen had returned to the house where Brudes had placed them. The house was their family's private property. It was not large, but not far from the Saint Bridge. The Saint's palace could be seen across the river.

Xiao Chen gathered the people who came together, released the masters in the meditation space and the tower spirits in the magic tower, and then told them about his contact with the Saint today.

"I didn't expect that you would be threatened by a little girl as soon as you showed up today." Luo Ling said.

"Although the Saint is still a young girl, she grew up in the palace, surrounded by people from the Sage Association and the Judiciary, so it's normal for her to have more thoughts. But in the end, she was still shocked by me."

"Hehe."

Meidiantian said: "Then have you observed the so-called memory inheritance? What kind of thing is it?"

Xiao Chen said: "This is exactly what I want to discuss with you. At that time, I used magic to invade her soul. Before I started to observe her, I found that there was a very powerful and vicissitudes of life force blocking my progress.

I feel that the source of that power is somewhat similar to the Saint's own feeling, but it is very different. I think this power should come from the Saint's inherited memory."

Glide said: "That is very likely the protection that the Saint set up in her memory in the past."

"Yes. I think so too." Xiao Chen said: "The inherited memory is the most important thing in the Saint. Once it is destroyed, the entire inheritance system will not be able to continue. So it is normal to have protection."

"Then how did you do it?" Luo Ling asked.

"That was a pre-set mental defense plan after all. It may be very effective for ordinary people, but it has many loopholes for me. I just secretly made a feint to the east and attacked in the west, leading the main defense force to a corner, and then sneaked behind the defense, and then I saw the memory inheritance." Xiao Chen said, "What He Jin said before was right, that inheritance is definitely not an ordinary soul, but more like a soul processed from a real soul, or a weapon spirit."

"Weapon spirit?" Luo Ling and others turned their eyes to the two tower spirits.

He Jin said: "It seems that this inheritance has a lot to do with us."

Xiao Chen also looked at the tower spirits and said: "Natural souls are often messy things, and processed souls will be much neater. The neatly processed style like her inherited memory reminds me of you two."

He Jin said: "You are right, there is such a difference between natural souls and artificially processed souls, and making artifact spirits is also a kind of thing with its own style. The artifact spirits created by different methods are also different.

If an artifact spirit similar to our method is found in the Western Continent, then there is only one possibility: it is the tower spirit of the Source Tower."
