Chapter 5 Soul Collapse
Even though Xie Shen is the reincarnation of a great power in the Nascent Soul stage, and his tenacity far exceeds that of ordinary people, he still feels despair when faced with such a predicament.
Frustrated, he thought of a solution that was not a solution, so he spoke to Deng Bin.
“It’s really hard to stay in this ‘tower’ prison, especially knowing that I can’t escape.”
“So I plan to erase my consciousness, To put it simply, it means making yourself brain-dead and turning into a vegetative state.”
"In this way, even if I have to stay in the 'tower' for dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of years, it will only be a matter of time."
The method described by Xie Shen is only called Deng Bin I feel like my eyes have been opened.
He asked curiously: "You can erase your own consciousness? How?"
Xie Shen thought for a while and said: "My soul. Well, you can understand it as spiritual power. My mental strength is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people, so I can easily close my five senses so that I can’t feel pain.”
“Then, I can also actively erase my consciousness and let go. Becoming brain-dead.”
"Of course, this state is definitely irreversible, so it is equivalent to suicide."
"But the question is, isn't there still resurrection."
"So even if I am brain dead "
Deng Bin looked thoughtful after hearing this.
Shao Qing, with a hint of disappointment in his tone said: "Since your ability is innate, does that mean that I can't learn it?"
"Yeah."
Xie Shen answered truthfully: "So, the reason why I haven't taught you this ability is not because I don't want to, but because I really can't teach you."
" And then"
Xie Shenchong warned Deng Bin: "I'm worried that after my brain death, something will happen suddenly in the 'Tower' prison, such as humans outside coming to rescue us."
"For. If you can seize the opportunity to escape, you must remember to kill me when the time comes, so that I can come back to life and regain consciousness.”
"Are we waiting for people from outside to come to rescue us?" Deng Bin shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Instead of waiting for people from outside to come to rescue us, it is better to pray that the earth will explode soon, so that we can also be relieved."
Thanks Shen replied: "I'm just giving an example."
"This kind of opportunity does not necessarily have to be someone from the outside coming to save us, it can also be some kind of accident in the 'Tower' prison, and Or a natural disaster such as an earthquake occurs and the 'Tower' is destroyed."
"Although the chance is small, what if it happens?"
"Right."< br>
Xie Shen began to draw a pie for Deng Bin: "And in return: If one day in the future, we really escape from this 'tower', I will teach you the method of practice, so that you can become an immortal through practice, that is, you can The kind that flies into the sky and escapes from the earth.”
"Immortal?" Deng Bin looked at Xie Shen and said thoughtfully: "What did you do before you were resurrected?"
"Oh,"
Meeting In response to this question, Xie Shen only smiled mysteriously and did not respond.
Seeing that Xie Shen was unwilling to say more, Deng Bin just realized what was going on and stopped asking further questions.
He solemnly said: "Okay, I promise you: once something happens to the 'Tower', I will kill you as soon as possible, but don't forget your promise."
Xie Shen also solemnly said: "I will never forget it."
After saying this, he closed his eyes and said no more.
Not long after.
After concentrating carefully, Xie Shen began to try to guide his soul out of the body, that is, 'soul separation'.
——The separation of the soul from the body is a magical power that only monks in the transformation stage can master.
Xie Shen is not a monk at the stage of becoming a god, so if he uses this magical power forcefully, it will only cause his own soul to collapse.
To put it simply, it means brain death and becoming a vegetative state.
This is a bad thing.
But in this prison called ‘Tower’, soul collapse has become a means to avoid endless torture.
in the room.
Under Deng Bin's gaze, Xie Shen, who had pulled his soul out of his body, suddenly tilted his head and his whole body became silent. "Brother?"
Seeing that Xie Shen was unconscious but had never triggered the automatic resurrection mechanism of the 'Tower' prison, Deng Bin was curious and couldn't help but stretch out his hand Xie took a deep breath.
Seeing that the other party was still alive, he immediately showed an incredulous expression.
This method.
It’s really a bug.
In fact, Xie Shen's vegetative state cannot last forever. After all, he was tortured by Deng Bin for 15 hours every day. After he died of his injuries and was resurrected in the 'Tower' prison, he Will regain consciousness because the state is refreshed.
In other words, Xie Shen needs to perform a 'soul separation' almost every day to erase his own consciousness in order to maintain a brain-dead state.
This process takes about ten minutes.
That is to say, Xie Shen will stay awake for ten minutes every day, and fall asleep for the rest of the time.
…
Time passes.
With the help of the method of "soul separation", Xie Shenyu spent more than ten years in the "Tower" prison without knowing it.
As for the specific length of ‘more than ten years’
Since there was no sunlight in the Tower Prison all day long, Xie Shen could only make an approximate estimate, but it was difficult to get the exact time.
This day.
After Xie Shen was tortured to death and resurrected, he found that there was an inexplicable countdown on the electronic display in the room where he was.
The time displayed on the countdown is [6 hours, 32 minutes and 17 seconds].
Seeing this scene, Xie Shen was no longer in a hurry to use the method of 'soul separation', and just looked at Deng Bin who was lying in the corner of the room.
This guy was so exhausted that he was still sleeping soundly.
So Xie Shen yelled at him: "Hey! Wake up."
"Ah? What?"
Deng Bin, who was woken up, suddenly opened his eyes.
Without Xie Shen’s reminder, he noticed the countdown on the electronic display.
At that moment, he said to Xie Shen with a mournful face: "It's over. Our time is up, and we are going to start the next reincarnation."
"Next reincarnation?"
"Yes."
Deng Bin replied: "It's just not torturing me. In the next reincarnation, the 'Tower' will arrange for you to torture others."
" As for me"
"'Tower' will arrange for me to go to another room and let others torture me."
"My hard days are coming."
"Brother, you don't know." Deng Bin Complained: "Those who get along well with each other like us are actually a minority."
"The vast majority of people in the 'Tower' are like that."
"Uh"< br>
Dun Bin described: "You can't say that they are madmen. After all, resurrection can completely refresh a person's mental state."
"But in short, if a person has been locked up in the tower for a long time, his psychology or More or less, there will be some problems.”
“This kind of problem cannot be fixed by refreshing the mental state after resurrecting from the dead.”
“Being imprisoned for a while. People like you who have been imprisoned for more than a hundred years, or who have been imprisoned for only a few decades, are actually mentally healthy."
"But those who have been imprisoned for four to five hundred years, or even five or six hundred years. Thousands of people."
“What did they say?”
“It’s very perverted anyway!”
