Chapter 514 Things will fall into place (1)
The consciousness was not expelled, which allowed Liduo to feel the changes in her spiritual power more clearly.
As the perfect inscription on the Great Spiritual Stone took shape, the pressure on the Nascent Soul became greater and greater. After the spiritual power ball originally used for reference and positioning was shattered, the spiritual energy particles in it returned to the Nascent Soul under the action of the inscription. However, for the Nascent Soul that was almost a hollow shell, the replenishing effect was better than nothing.
Previously, Lido used visualization to shape her spiritual core into her own appearance, which is now the Nascent Soul. In a sense, this deepened the fusion of consciousness and soul, and had a very positive effect on Lido.
But at this moment, facing the seemingly endless pressure brought by the perfect great spiritual stone inscription, Lido's spiritual power core could no longer maintain the appearance of a Nascent Soul, and gradually turned back to its original spherical shape under the pressure.
If Lido hadn't been worried about causing irreparable damage to her own consciousness, she would have tried her best to control her Nascent Soul to resist the increasing pressure while slowly reducing the strength of resistance, so that the Nascent Soul would slowly return to its spherical shape bit by bit.
I'm afraid that when the pressure exceeds a certain critical point, the Nascent Soul will instantly return to a spherical shape, or if Lido chooses to release control of the Nascent Soul, the result will probably be similar.
But this is actually equivalent to Lido's Nascent Soul being instantly shattered into spiritual energy particles, and then gathered into a sphere under the influence of the inscription. This is a process of destruction and reshaping.
This does not seem to have much impact on the spiritual energy particles themselves, and even the core soul layer in the center may not be affected at all, but for Lido's consciousness that has integrated into it, it may be a disaster!
In the past, when Lido was undergoing soul sublimation, the consciousness in her mental core was shaken and separated into consciousness fragments, but this situation is very different from the previous one.
The previous fusion of consciousness fragments and spiritual energy particles was not so deep. After being separated by the vibration, they were far away from the area where the spiritual energy particles were vibrating, floating on the periphery, and were intercepted by the spiritual power cocoon so as not to dissipate out of the sea of consciousness.
Therefore, except for the impact when it was separated by the shock and turned into smaller fragments, there is still a chance to piece them together, and the lost information fragments after the piece is pieced together will not affect Lido's self-cognition.
But if the above-mentioned process of the Nascent Soul being instantly shattered and reshaped really happens, then Lido's consciousness, which is deeply integrated with the Nascent Soul, will also be shattered into tiny fragments. These fragments will be much smaller than the consciousness fragments that were separated by vibration during the previous soul sublimation!
And even if the fragments of consciousness could still be pieced together at this time, under the continuous pressure brought by the inscription on the Great Spiritual Stone, the fragments of consciousness would only be further broken into even smaller fragments of consciousness.
Can it be put back together? Or even if it is put together, can it still be put together in the correct order?
Confusion of consciousness is a minor issue, but I’m afraid that it really cannot be pieced together. What will be the final destination of those fragments of consciousness?
I'm afraid it will be like the black impurities that Lido observed in the psychic stone, leaving only some simple regrets.
It can be said that at that time, Lido was probably not even as good as a high-level monster, and her rationality was at most equivalent to that of a mid-level monster.
With such serious consequences, how could Lido dare to take chances?
That's why Lido tried her best to slow down the process, and while resisting, she quickly transferred the original mental power that was integrated with the imprint of consciousness to a position close to the core layer of the soul.
Here, even if the Nascent Soul changes back into a spherical shape, it is still inside the soul ball. Although it can still feel the pressure brought by the inscription, the impact will be much smaller with the buffer of the outer layer of mental power.
Sure enough, after the Nascent Soul turned back into a spherical shape, Lido's consciousness was still in the original mental power and did not separate.
After Lido's soul returned to the spherical shape, it shrank a lot, because the previous generation of the perfect large spiritual stone inscription and the stable sea of consciousness barrier really consumed too much mental energy.
The Nascent Soul turned back into a soul ball, but the pressure it was under did not decrease. This pressure still forced the soul ball to compress inward.
Here it comes! This is exactly what Lido has been waiting for!
The outer spirit particle layer of Liduo's original Nascent Soul and the spirit soul layer in the soul core were originally only a thin line apart. Although the Nascent Soul was almost turned into an empty shell in order to form the sea of consciousness barrier, which made the distance between the two much larger, but under the heavy pressure, the Nascent Soul turned back into a soul ball and the distance returned to the state of only a thin line apart.
Now the soul ball continues to compress inward, causing the spirit particles in the spirit particle layer to get closer and closer, and finally they collide with each other!
Due to the existence of external pressure, after the soul particles collided with each other, they did not begin to vibrate like the previous times of soul sublimation, but were forced to merge.
This kind of fusion is much faster than the previous shock fusion. In this process, the consciousness imprint integrated into the mental power still does not separate, and multiple consciousness imprints naturally merge into one.
Every time the energy level of spiritual energy particles is increased, it can accommodate more consciousness information and the consciousness imprint will be larger. Now that Lido's spiritual energy particles have merged, its energy level has naturally increased, and the consciousness that can be accommodated will also increase synchronously. Therefore, there is no pressure at all to bear the consciousness after the fusion of multiple consciousness imprints.
Perhaps when the energy level of every spiritual energy particle in Lido's soul reaches an extremely high level, every spiritual energy particle will be able to accommodate Lido's complete consciousness. At that time, Lido's spiritual power will no longer be divided into original spiritual power and peripheral spiritual power.
In that case, as long as there is one spiritual energy particle that has not been destroyed, Lido's consciousness will still have the possibility of complete rebirth. Perhaps then will be the time when the real Nascent Soul will be born.
But that was a long time in the future. Now Lido still had to be careful to protect her original mental power and not lose too many fragments of her consciousness imprint.
That’s right, now Lido’s spiritual energy particles cannot contain Lido’s complete consciousness, so although the fused consciousness imprint is called a consciousness imprint, it should be more accurately called a consciousness imprint fragment.
What is integrated into Lido's original mental power is not just one complete imprint of consciousness. Lido has already copied several complete imprints of consciousness with a sense of crisis, divided them into many fragments of consciousness imprint and integrated them into a large number of spiritual energy particles, thus forming Lido's original mental power.
But even so, there is still a possibility of losing some memory information. What if what is lost happen to be fragments of the same consciousness imprint?
If all backup copies of consciousness imprint fragments are lost or damaged, the memory information they carry can never be recovered.
