Chapter 59 The doppelganger

Jin Wei's body, which was supposed to be immortal, accepted its death. This wouldn't have happened if he had even a little bit of blood in his body.

But after his breakthrough, Jin Wei not only lost all the small amount of blood energy his body had, he even lost all his blood, and his soul got damaged a bit, causing him to age both physically and mentally. Normally, vampires don't age, but damage to their souls can cause unexpected effects.

Even though it didn't look like it, he was barely alive after his breakthrough. He was only conscious because he was continuously using star energy to keep his heart and mind active.

Truth be told, Jin Wei didn't expect to suffer such a loss during his breakthrough. Although he expected to lose all his blood energy and the blood in his body, he didn't expect to suffer soul damage.

This caused him to be in a near-death state, and there was almost no way for him to survive if he didn't recover his soul. This is only possible if he can become a Noble Blood Vampire since normal vampires can't regenerate their souls.

This is why he tried to be so desperate during this testing by blocking all his senses so that he could meditate, complete the ritual, and in the process purify his bloodline so he could become a Noble Blood Vampire, even though the chances are slim still, as it was his last means of survival he was desperate.

But in the end, it looked like instead of helping him, this test brought him to his death even faster, not like he had much time anyway.

Jin Wei had already accepted his death, and it felt to him that he was slowly being consumed by the darkness around him.

Everything around him was nothing but darkness. Then, Jin Wei noticed a red light coming toward him from a long distance, which he didn't think much about. As he was dying, what did some red light matter to him?

As the red light got closer, it looked more and more like Jin Wei. Until, the point, it was right in front of him, the unknown figure who looked the same as Jin Wei was quite angry.

〔If you will disappear, give me back my body.〕The doppelganger shouted, as even his voice was similar to Jin Wei's.

〔Who are you?〕 Jin Wei asked as if he didn't have any emotion at all. At this moment, Jin Wei had already given up. He knew he was dying, and there was no point in resisting.

〔Hahahaha... it seems you have forgotten me, you thief... I am this body's real owner. Give me back my body...〕The doppelganger demanded in a righteous tone as if he were asking for something that was already his but had been stolen for some reason.

Just then, the doppelganger released a ball of energy that began to cover his whole body. Jin Wei felt like his whole being was getting consumed by someone even faster than before.

〔Hahahaha... such a weak guy... you dared to steal my body... after I get my body back... I am going to f*ck that red-haired woman you love until she gets completely broken. Then I am going to cut her body piece by piece and feed it to some dog... but don't worry, before she dies I will heal her again and this time I am going to cut her inside out and make her eat it again and again. Oh, she will beg me to kill her, but I won't let her die, since living itself will be her punishment for your actions.〕The doppelganger said in a sadistic tone, as if he were already imagining himself doing this.

Hearing all this, Jin Wei didn't respond.

Instead, he just remained silent while the doppelganger continued talking about thousands of ways he was going to torture Victoria, Aurora, Kaiya, Rex, Lilly, and everyone he knew.

Then, suddenly, the whole void began to brighten, and the source of that light was Jin Wei himself.

Something inside him had awakened.

〔How dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you... how dare you even think about hurting them?〕

Jin Wei shouted in rage, and the red light that was consuming him suddenly broke like it was some kind of glass.

There are several phases after the five senses are gone.

The first phase is panic. The panicked brain will look for every way to get information from outside the body.

Then the body will struggle and go crazy. This can harm you if you move your body too much in a random direction, so you just need to paralyze your limbs as well.

The second phase is acceptance. In this phase, the brain accepts that it will not get any information from outside the body. So the brain will think the body is dead.

As a result, the brain will begin to reduce the activity of organs such as the heart and lungs.

Gradually, the brain will also die due to the absence of oxygen. But a vampire wouldn't die if they possessed some blood energy or even a little bit of blood.

The third phase is awakening. In this phase, you must force the brain to look for other senses as a source of information.

This phase requires a very strong determination and a great will to survive. Only then, if luck is on your side, will you survive and even awaken something else inside you or not, who knows? 

No one is crazy enough to test this out, except Jin Wei, who unknowingly accomplished a great feat that had seemed impossible to many in history, just so he could meditate.

The doppelganger, who saw Jin Wei suddenly getting powered up, panicked. The illusion of sweat beginning to drop from his forehead could be seen, but in the next moment, a happy smile appeared on his face.

〔It seems that's the last thing I can do for our future savior... Grow stronger and show the universe the true terror of a vampire.〕The doppelganger shouted in joy, but Jin Wei didn't hear anything as he charged at him at full speed and punched him in the face. Then the doppelganger's body began to dissipate and completely fused with Jin Wei.

Time moves again.

The circle is turning again.

The color returns to the space again.

The void shatters.

Jin Wei can feel his body again. He came back from death.
