Chapter 6 Prelude to the Great Hypnosis
"Oda Kiyoshi!" Just as death was imminent, Ye Huan suddenly shouted loudly, "If you still acknowledge yourself as a Japanese, then stop for me!"
"What?"
The blade hung over Ye Huan's head, and Tokugawa Kiyoshi stared at him in confusion. His universal language was not good to begin with, and Ye Huan spoke disjointedly, leaving himself stunned for a moment. "My country, nationality, your life and death, are they related?" However, he still acknowledged: "Ah, my ancestors were the Sixth Heaven Demon King!"
"Of course it does, you Japanese people aren't the ones who value Bushido spirit the most? Then you can't kill me, this is the most merciful lesson that Dan'ge has given you!"
Feeling the icy sword energy on his forehead, Ye Huan was so anxious that he became incoherent for a while before thinking of an excuse. "Look at my appearance, I'm covered in sweat and my back is soaked. I just finished taking a test and don't even have the strength to stand up. You want to kill me? Don't you have any shame? And you must have heard of my reputation, so you should know that I've been a useless person for two years already. If you fight with me, your ancestors will be embarrassed!"
Oda Hidenobu hesitated for a moment, and actually put down his samurai sword, bowed, "Hey, you're right!"
"Hey, young master Oda, don't believe his nonsense!"
Billy stood by, his eyes wide with wonder, thinking to himself: "Is this guy a big fool that I've invited?"
Just now, Billy was escorted to the religious trial chamber. Although he and the principal are related, this time the crime is too big, and there's no thought of coming out alive. However, just as the trial began, Oda Kiyoshi happened to come here for a routine report.
Oda Kiyoshi, originally trained in the secret knight training of the Vatican, would not participate in the ordinary divine college's struggle. However, for the upcoming four major divine colleges' joint martial arts competition, Principal Giggs made a big move and took out his treasured Three-Day Moon Tsunenaga - Oda Kiyoshi, this descendant of the Sixth Heaven Demon King, how could he refuse a sword that also came from Japan, once belonging to the Izumo no Okina who prayed for the moon?
He transferred to Donglin and even cleared Billy's name, and as soon as he heard that Ye Huan was once a hero, he immediately came to find trouble with Ye Huan.
In Oda Kiyoshi's view, the newly acquired divine sword must be dedicated with the blood of a hero, which is an ancient custom of their nation.
"I'll take care of it, you don't need to worry!"
Oda Hidenobu stepped back and nodded after a moment of contemplation, "Yayoi, great hero, I will give you the most fair duel!"
As he spoke, he inserted the divine sword Sangetsu into the ground, shook his shoulders, and a silver light burst out from behind him. This light was like a bright moon, quickly condensing into a vague human figure behind Oda Kiyoshi - black long hair, ancient warrior clothes, horse tail braids, looking at his face, it was surprisingly identical to Oda Kiyoshi.
"Whoa!" Billy laughed with a mixture of excitement and malice: "Huan Ge, you can't just spout nonsense, if you don't speak, the most that'll happen is you'll die by the sword. But if you keep talking, heh heh, Lord Oda will have to use his mother's soul!" The laughter grew even more sinister, "Don't say I didn't warn you, Lord Oda's mother's soul is a soul of decay, it can rot you into a puddle of goo in just a minute!"
Bang!
He hadn't finished speaking when Oda Seiichi slapped him in the face and scolded: "You, despicable coward, one more word and you're dead!"
After finishing speaking, he left the samurai sword to the other person who was like himself, and bowed out, just like an ancient Japanese warrior before a duel. He said seriously: "Ye Huan, your body is crippled, killing you would not be a victory, so let's have a fair duel, a battle of wits!"
He came to the door and respectfully closed the big gate, leaving only the mother's soul and Ye Huan in the house.
"Yue Huan, remember, I am the earth, the mother's soul, the three corrupt souls, corroding all metals, corroding all flesh, corroding all mother's souls!"
"Mother's soul?"
At this time, Billy and several others also retreated - Oda Kiyoshi wanted a fair duel, they didn't dare to stay and disturb.
The large testing room was left with only two people, Mu Hún and Ye Huan. Mu Hún looked at Ye Huan coldly for a moment, then pulled out the warrior's sword stuck in the ground, and just like Okita Sōji, she bowed slightly and spoke, "I, Mu Hún, the mother soul of Okita Sōji, the three-corrupted soul, Ye Huan, you, plus your mother soul, two people joining hands, defeat me, and walk out alive!"
Ye Huan had almost cried his heart out, he hadn't fully merged with the memories of another Ye Huan, and didn't even know what his own mother's soul was like, how could he fight a battle of mother's souls with others?
But with death staring him in the face, he couldn't care about what others thought of him anymore, and went all out to think quickly, sitting on the ground like a big fool who had suddenly become stupid.
……
Mother's soul is actually not complicated.
New humans can absorb power from nature, store power. For example, some people can absorb flames and burst out flame fists. Then there are two logical questions - what do they use to absorb the flames? Where is the absorbed flame stored?
This is the effect of the Mother's Soul, which can help the master absorb and store natural energy!
It depends on the master and the mother soul's level how much can be absorbed and stored!
A more straightforward metaphor is that if a Soul Master is a car, then the Mother Soul is the gas tank, responsible for storing gasoline and providing power!
Of course, the natural power of absorption is different, and the attributes of the mother's soul are also different. For example, this Okada Kiyoshi's mother's soul can absorb a kind of acid corrosion, used to corrode metal, flesh, and other people's mother's soul, so it is called the three-corrosion soul!
Ye Huan used to have a mother soul, with the attribute of sound waves, which could store all the sounds he heard and form a powerful sonic killing array. His strongest move was the Divine Melody - Guardian Angel, Beethoven's Elegy!
Generally speaking, the mother soul is the weakest part of a soul master's body, similar to the yuan infant in Taoism. If there was no special reason, soul masters would never let their mother souls appear on the battlefield - at this time, Oda Kiyoshi's meaning was that he used his own weakest mother soul to challenge Ye Huan and Ye Huan's mother soul at the same time! One against two, if Ye Huan still couldn't win like this, then even if she died, it would only be because she didn't have enough skill.
A fairly even match!
The key is that Ye Huan now is not the same as before. He can't even summon his own mother's soul!
"Wait a minute, Mr. Muxin, I am a follower of Dan Ge, and before the duel, I must pray to Dan Ge, this is my faith, you are also a follower of Tianfu Church, you must respect!"
Ye Huan muttered nonsense prayers with her mouth full, but in her heart she was thinking of a solution at lightning speed.
Damn it, how can I summon my own mother's soul to save me?
Mother's soul...
Huh? Ye Huan's eyes lit up as she suddenly remembered a phrase from her religious theory class: the maternal soul, which is another soul given to humans by the gods - this was of course a brainwashing phrase used in religion, but it actually spoke of a fact, the maternal soul, which is actually another consciousness within the human body!
"Another human consciousness..."
"Fuck! Isn't that just the subconscious?"
Ye Huan suddenly let out a loud roar, scaring the Mother Soul opposite him to retreat several steps back, thinking he was about to launch an attack. Ye Huan hurriedly waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay... This is part of the ritual to pray to the new Heavenly Messenger, Brother Dan. It roughly means, Ah, Brother Dan, you are so great, so radiant, so full of universal love..."
In her anxiety, Ye Huan suddenly came up with a bold and daring inspiration!
The mother's soul is the subconscious, which is not good because the subconscious will also disappear with the master's death. So, another Ye Huan died, his mother's soul also died, and now Ye Huan is a useless person without a mother's soul!
But...
I'm a psychologist! And my specialty is hypnosis that targets the subconscious mind!
"Heh heh!" Ye Huan smiled with narrowed eyes, taking off the necklace from his neck and wrapping it around his left wrist as a simple hypnotic tool.
