Chapter 953: Chapter 825: Stealing the Body

"Stealing Spirit Fruit"

Umberto looked at the blue fruit in his hand and spoke its name.

"I’ve seen it in books, but since it was just random sketches, I didn’t know the exact colors, so I didn’t recognize it at first."

"Now it seems that its appearance doesn’t differ much from the drawings."

Saying that, he placed the blue fruit near his nose and sniffed it lightly.

Smelling the fruit’s aroma, Umberto nodded.

"A refreshing yet piercing scent that causes a slight pain between the brows."

This made him more certain about whether the fruit he held was the Slicing Spirit Fruit.

Kane stood beside watching Umberto’s actions, his eyes flashing gold, staring at the fruit in Umberto’s hand.

"Does this fruit have any use? It seems to be the key to solving the problem."

Kane asked, then stared at Umberto.

Umberto looked at the blue fruit in his hand, beginning to recall how this fruit was introduced in the books he had read.

He dug through his memories and said slowly, "Just like the fruit’s name, it can steal spiritual power.

For those who can see spirits, those who understand the existence of spirits, greedy people always yearn for everything about spirits, long for their abilities, long for their eternal life..."

Looking at the blue fruit in Umberto’s hand, Kane frowned and couldn’t help saying, "Although the fruit’s power is to steal spirit power, can it really steal this Deer God’s spirit power? Can it reach that extent?"

Kane remained skeptical about it.

If it were that simple, you could steal golden power, even approaching colorful power.

The price would certainly be extraordinary.

At this moment, the silver chain nearby vibrated the air, transmitting its words.

"The essence of this fruit is not to steal, but to mimic."

"It cannot steal the power of the spirit but mimics and changes, merely transforming human body and soul into spirit."

After hearing that, Umberto looked at the fruit in his hand, "Is that so? Then it would be meaningless."

After all, this fruit is very rare, and Umberto had never seen it before, only read about it in books.

Now discovering that it is not as stated in the book, what meaning does it have in guiding him here?

At this time, Meizike stepped forward and silently took out a tube of potion from his belt.

"Perhaps it’s not without opportunities."

Saying this, Meizike held out the potion in his hand, attracting everyone’s gaze.

The potion in Meizike’s hand emitted a strange energy, which made Kane and the others look somewhat uncomfortable.

The potion’s color was a grayish-white, with a golden thread moving inside, like a living creature.

"A failed product made last night, but it fits well."

Upon hearing this, Kane walked over and took the potion from Meizike’s hand.

He looked at the potion in his hand and identified it without hesitation.

[Spiritual Potion]

[Consumable]

[Color: Golden]

[Effect: After consumption, the user can transform into a spiritual body and possess a spirit. The stronger the target’s spirit, the more difficult the possession.

Can only possess spirits, possession time is 24 hours.]

[Introduction: A potion created by Alchemist Meizike through studying a strange creature.

A powerful, albeit flawed, potion, a failed product.]

Kane looked at the potion description in his hand.

"The effect is useful, but the duration is too short, it doesn’t decide anything. If it were permanent, that’d be good enough."

Just 24 hours doesn’t solve any problem.

Upon hearing Kane’s words, Meizike went to Umberto’s side, took the blue fruit from his hand, and held it in his own.

"In my research on spirits, the humans here differ from ordinary people outside, possessing certain spiritual characteristics."

Saying this, he shook the fruit in his hand.

"Give me some time, and I should be able to refine this fruit into a more interesting potion, paired with the earlier failed product, it should allow Umberto to transform into a true spirit and merge with this body."

With this, Meizike seriously looked at Umberto.

"Are you willing to merge with the deer god’s corpse for your world, becoming a true spirit with certain risks?"

Looking at this usually taciturn person suddenly speaking so much.

Umberto was a bit silent.

To become a spirit?

As a Spirit Doctor, most of his time throughout the centuries has been spent preventing humans.

He had seen countless individuals who fused with spirits, even completely turned into spirits.

Most of them were extraordinarily regretful.

And himself?

Thinking this, Umberto raised his head to look at Meizike, nodded, "I can accept."

Upon hearing Umberto’s words, Meizike nodded, then had a conversation with Kane.

The two stood there talking, discussing topics that everyone else could not understand, subjects of an academic nature.

After communicating with Meizike, Kane nodded. He roughly understood Meizike’s idea. It could only be said that alchemists, indeed, thought differently than someone who worked with machinery.

According to Meizike’s idea, he planned to use the Spiritual Potion to allow Umberto to temporarily possess the corpse of this Spirit God.

Before possession, they would inspect the Spirit God’s corpse to ensure there wouldn’t be any remaining spirit that might affect Umberto.

After all, this Spirit God was once an existence about to ascend to godhood, while Umberto is merely a human who has lived for over a century.

Their spiritual strength couldn’t be compared at all.

Then, using the Stealing Spirit Fruit, Meizike, relying on his previous simple research on spirits and the world’s humans, would let Umberto transform into a spirit during the possession.

Meanwhile, Kane was responsible for using the Blessing to make Umberto’s spirit more powerful, so that Umberto’s spirit and soul could bear the Deer Spirit’s body—not necessarily to use it freely but at least to endure it.

Such a collision has a great possibility of causing Umberto’s death.

But this was the effect Meizike desired, as his mastery over soul and harmonious authority had reached a certain level. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Allowing Umberto, at the moment of death, to perfectly occupy this body.

At that time, there was a high possibility that this powerful body could be revived.

Because, to some extent, this body was new, having just died.

The reason for communicating with Kane for so long was to ask Kane about the mastery of resurrection and Blessing; whether such a condition could be fulfilled.

To this, Kane nodded, indicating no problem.

Actually, they could easily let the nearby silver chain, or even other slightly intelligent spirits, become a Spirit God, which would be simpler than letting Umberto become a Spirit God.

But they hadn’t forgotten their goal.

As humans of this world, they would trust Umberto a bit more.

Even if it would take more time and effort.

But to prevent some accidents, it’s worth it.

"Then let’s start now," Kane said to Meizike.

Meizike nodded.

Then Kane waved his hand, and instantly two buildings appeared in the cave.

Kane turned to Kreya and the others and said, "You guys take a break here first. We might need some time to conduct research."

Seeing Kreya and the others nod, Kane and Meizike entered the nearby laboratory.

After all, their previous exchange was just a thought, and Kane used Divine Gaze to foresee this idea.

Affirmed that this method had a success rate.

Now they needed to simulate this operation, find the issues within, and raise the success rate.

There’s only one fruit.

Only one chance.

...

After an entire week.

Kane and the others finally managed to increase the success rate to over 90%.

Through Kreya and Kane’s simulation using Origin Skills, they discovered all the problems they could find.

And Kane even resorted to casting a dice.

Although it showed only red 2 points, it was at least a boost in luck.

Looking at Umberto beside him.

Kane walked over and patted his shoulder. During this time together, they came to have immense respect for him.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t let him occupy this powerful body.

"How is it? Are you ready? Ready to save your world?"

Umberto took a deep breath, and finally nodded.

During this week, he had perfectly built up his psychological preparation.

And under Kane’s Blessing, he constantly strengthened his spirit. Now his body was starting to become unable to bear his powerful Spiritual Power.

Seeing Umberto nod and make a ready expression, Kane said, "Then I’ll give you the final Blessing, which will make your spirit completely surpass your body’s bearing limit. You must endure it."

Then, a golden Magic Stone appeared in Kane’s hand.

He was now completely able to use his Magic Power and colorful Personality to perform Blessing.

But for such a direct enhancement of spirit and soul strength, Kane wasn’t too confident.

So he decided to use a golden Magic Stone for assistance.

This was entirely worth it.

Holding the Magic Stone of spirit in his hand, then mixed it with the Magic Power in his body, it became a golden light point.

Kane took a step forward and pointed the light at Umberto’s forehead.

A simple Lamp Mark followed the golden light marked on his forehead.

This was a sign that Kane always left during Blessing, representing Kane’s power.

The Lamp Mark had already been bound with Kane.

As the mark dissolved into the forehead,

Umberto’s brows furrowed tightly, sweat kept dripping down his face.

His soul and spirit were too strong, the body was wailing, making him extremely uncomfortable.

There wasn’t much time left.
