Chapter 345 Absorbing Is Successful
It had already been half a year since Yuchi had absorbed the sea heart.
Three months ago.
Yuchi\'s sea of consciousness was still in a mess. The faceless fish was still attacking Yuchi\'s black-gold sun in a very brutal way.
However, three months later, the situation was completely different from three months ago.
Although Yuchi\'s sea of consciousness was still a lush green, and the surroundings looked like a tropical rainforest, the black-gold sun in the sky had already given birth to many, many golden threads.
These golden threads had already tied up the faceless fish, keeping it in place. Yuchi had to focus on two things at once; the faceless fish, as well as the transformed demons and ghosts it controlled.
This was quite difficult. More than multitasking, it was like overseeing two different levels of battlefields at the same time.
Luckily, thanks to the little animals that shared his consciousness, this was entirely doable for him.
Now, Yuchi was currently using his black-gold sun to comprehend the thoughts that were flowing through the faceless fish.
These thoughts were the sea heart formed by the ancestor of the Purple Cloud sect.
As he slowly understood its thoughts, he gradually merged and assimilated some of its characteristics.
After a while, the faceless fish looked like it had been wrapped in spider silk due to the sheer number of golden threads that held it in place. It was finally completely controlled by Yuchi.
It had been a long and hard battle. Yuchi\'s body was almost completely transparent, like that of a ghost. He was almost fully exhausted.
If Cofuran had come to the top of the mountain to take a look, she would have noticed that Yuchi\'s body had turned into stone. His entire body was like a rock, and the surface of his skin was covered with all kinds of moss.
Even plants were growing all over his body. It was as if he had become a part of nature.
Looking deeper within…
Yuchi\'s muscles had been replaced by fibrous plants, and there were plants growing on his internal organs as well. These plants were fighting for control of Yuchi\'s body.
The only thing left was a half plant-infested heart that was slowly beating.
The heart had shrunk greatly. It was like the heart of a little bird. Half of the heart was green and covered with various plants.
The other half of his heart was still beating forcefully. It was beating extremely quickly, at least 1,000 times per second.
This was the final struggle.
However, these plants could only do so much, or perhaps they could only do so much because Yuchi allowed them to.
After all, the battlefield was inside Yuchi\'s body, so if he wanted to defend both his body and sea of consciousness, it would consume twice the energy.
The battle in his sea of consciousness was the priority. All he needed to do was ensure that there was a wisp of vitality left in his body to return to.
"So it was like this."
"There are good and bad things about nature, but all of it is natural. The growth of plants is natural, so is the withering of plants, and animals killing each other as well. If you want to master this peaceful sea heart, one must be like nature, allowing everything to take its natural course."
Yuchi\'s original Dao heart was the Deathmatch Dao heart.
In the end, this kind of Dao heart was a fearless one that fought to the death and risked life and limb for victory. It lacked patience and flexibility, and its owner would often be caught between a rock and a hard place.
"The fusion of the peaceful sea heart and a fighting Dao heart is like the fusion of water and fire."
"They are essentially incompatible like fire and water, but both are also creations of this world. Why can\'t they be fused?"
"In this world, there is nothing that cannot be connected. One simply has to have a detailed understanding of both sides to identify the points of connection and similarity. It\'s also a process of trial and error."
Yuchi watched as the moss-covered Vast Sea Dragon King charged toward him while wielding its trident. Now, it was just a mindless walking corpse that was attacking based on its past instinct.
Yuchi, on the other hand, stood calmly in front of the Vast Sea Dragon King, staring at the mushrooms covering its body.
Just as the trident was about to pierce through his chest, its movements came to an abrupt stop. Then, in the blink of an eye, it had already turned into dust.
Similar situations were happening everywhere in Yuchi\'s sea of consciousness.
As Yuchi\'s sea of consciousness gradually became clear, the faceless fish in the sky finally changed.
The golden threads finally released the faceless fish. It did not change, but it was obvious that he had already found a home in Yuchi\'s sea of consciousness.
It had become Yuchi\'s second Dao heart, and was slowly circling around the black-gold sun, swimming around happily.
His sea of consciousness began to recover, and the crack in his sea of consciousness was also slowly repairing itself.
Standing in his sea of consciousness, looking at the injured little animals, Yuchi\'s face finally displayed a trace of a smile.
"After obtaining my second Dao heart, I can sense more aspects of the Heavenly Dao, and have mastered a lot of things."
"It seems that this thing is quite beneficial."
