Adoption of a Soul

As the starlight approached, Lin Meng seemed to have discovered something. Even the branches of the tree could not help but tremble.

He looked at the approaching starlight.

Lin Meng was surprised to find that it was a familiar figure.

Yes, it was a familiar human figure.

From the moment Lin Meng woke up until now, he had only seen two human girls.

Betty and Julie.

One of the two women that he had spent a lot of effort to get rid of.

However, at this moment, the figure that flew over was a little blurry and couldn't be seen clearly.

There was a weak light around its body.

If it wasn't for a familiar face, Lin Meng might not have been able to recognize it.

"Energy body? Could this be..."

Lin Meng looked at the body that was emitting light and seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly, his eyes widened.

Race: Human (Mutated Soul)

Innate Talent: Immune to physical attacks.

Ability: Spiritual Enhancement (Awakening) - One of the few spiritual abilities that could allow him to temporarily exist in the world after he died.

Telepathy (Awakening)—She did not know where but there was a similar soul that was connected to her.

Lin Meng looked at the information that appeared above the head of this illusory shadow and could not help but be silent for a long time.

Soul.

Did even souls appear in this world?

However, it was understandable if one thought about it carefully.

This was the descent of the era of transcendence. The appearance of a soul was also understandable.

And just as Lin Meng was thinking about it...

Hu...

A gust of wind blew. Lin Meng could clearly see that this streak of starlight suddenly started to sway.

It was like the specks of light that were emitted by an injured firefly, swaying on the verge of collapse.

"She's not afraid of physical attacks but she's afraid of the wind?"

Lin Meng looked at this scene and could not help but be puzzled.

After thinking about it carefully, he understood that a soul would eventually dissipate.

Rather than saying that she was afraid of the wind, it was more accurate to say that the wind would accelerate her dissipation.

As for why she was not afraid of the wind that was brought about by Lin Meng's branches, Lin Meng was not sure.

Perhaps the wind at night had some strange power.

Without thinking too deeply, the soul was still too far away for Lin Meng.

If transcendence had broken his understanding, then the appearance of the soul had made him realize the other side of this world.

And the other side of this world was far from what he could explore.

At this moment, the swaying figure in the sky seemed to have noticed something and its body paused.

Then, like a shooting star, it charged straight towards the ground.

The direction it charged towards happened to be not far from Lin Meng's body.

Lin Meng was puzzled.

What was she doing?

Just as he was puzzled, Lin Meng's expression suddenly changed.

That was because he felt that there was something on one of his branch roots.

Rumble...

He lifted up the branch of the tree root and the earth shook.

A black tree root was exposed from the soil.

At this moment, Lin Meng looked at the end of the black tree root and was stunned to find a blurry figure of an illusory girl hugging the tree root tightly.

It was as if she was hugging a beloved doll. Her face was filled with comfort.

At this moment, a system notification appeared.

[Special Ability to Nourish the Soul—As one of the best mediums for the soul to stay in the world, your mutated tree root is the soul's favorite. The tree can nourish the soul, nothing else is better than this.]

Lin Meng sighed. His entire body was filled with treasures.

He looked at the illusory girl who was hugging his black tree root again, feeling a little complicated.

A tree could nourish the soul.

Lin Meng was not unfamiliar with this concept.

There was a divine tree called the "Soul Nurturing Tree." Wearing its branches on one's body could nourish the soul and primordial spirit, slowly strengthening the spiritual sense. It could also host the soul, ensuring that the consciousness would not dissipate.

As for his, Lin Meng's tree root, although it did not have such an exaggerated effect, the effect of nourishing the soul should still be a little.

However, what kind of situation was this now?

He had made up his mind with great difficulty to get rid of these two girls but now, after they died, they actually came knocking on his door.

Wait, dead?

As if he had thought of something, Lin Meng was suddenly stunned.

This was only a soul and they were sisters.

In other words, the other woman wasn't dead yet...

Thinking of this, Lin Meng's heart sank.

This was not good news.

One had to know that although his hallucinating ability could change a girl's memories, it was not permanent.

If something happened to her.

It was possible for her memories to recover, and there was even a high chance of recovering her memories.

"Phew..."

Taking a deep breath, Lin Meng tried his best to calm himself down.

At this moment, it was useless to be anxious.

Moreover, it wasn't impossible to salvage the situation now.

His heart moved slightly.

Hum. Hum. Hum...

Accompanied by a sharp cry, the mutated peregrine falcons that were entrenched on the trees spread their wings and flew up.

If it was necessary.

Lin Meng could send out the peregrine falcons. That way, he could salvage everything.

However, if that was the case, the peregrine falcon might be completely exposed.

"Phew..."

Lin Meng took a deep breath and fell into a rare moment of hesitation.

However, at this moment, a very weak consciousness appeared in his heart.

"Who am I?"

"Where is this?"

"Who are you?"

The standard philosophy of three consecutive questions.

This caused Lin Meng to be slightly stunned.

Immediately after, looking at the illusory young lady who had opened her eyes not far away but was filled with confusion, Lin Meng smiled.

She should have lost her memory.

No, to be more accurate, it should be that her soul was incomplete and she did not have many memories of when she was alive.

However, this was also good.

Sometimes, forgetting was also a good thing.

And at this moment, as if he had thought of something, Lin Meng suddenly muttered, "Telepathy."

Yes, telepathy.

This was the special ability of this mutated soul.

If there were no accidents, this should be because she and the other girl were twins.

The awakening of her spiritual ability allowed her to sense the situation of the other girl.

If that was really the case...

Thinking of this, Lin Meng couldn't help but laugh.

It seemed that there was a better solution.

...

At night.

The moon shone in the canyon.

A willow tree was in the depths of the fog-filled canyon.

Under the willow tree, a black root was exposed from the soil.

And on that exposed root, there was an illusory figure coiled up.

The figure was very small.

It was like an elf. A palm-sized girl was curled up at the end of the root with her hands wrapped around her thighs.

"Master, my senses are a little blurry."

As she spoke, the girl raised her head and looked at the willow tree with a gaze filled with dependence.

The dependence and closeness in the depths of the girl's soul made her believe without reservation that the willow tree in front of her was everything to her.

However, this should be the case.

As a soul body, Betty's soul had nowhere to be protected. If she lost Lin Meng, she would completely disappear.
