Compared to bloodline fusion, he was more eager for his external incarnation.
As long as he could condense it for another three hours today, his own life essence blood would be completely condensed.
The process of condensing life essence blood was tedious and lengthy.
During this process, Su Nan didn't idle and once again fed the Dragon Turtle.
Just like yesterday, more than forty drops of blood from ordinary-level monsters were consumed.
It was fortunate that he had over a thousand drops of ordinary-level blood in his possession; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to find so many drops of blood from monsters imbued with water elemental power.
"If it's just this amount of blood every day, it's not a big deal. But relying solely on ordinary-level blood, the growth rate of the Dragon Turtle is too slow."
Looking at the unchanged Dragon Turtle, Su Nan pondered whether he should start feeding it with spirit-level blood in the future.
Six hours later.
With a drop of blood that was completely different from ordinary blood condensing within him, Su Nan let out a long sigh.
"It's done!"
With a thought, he forced the drop of blood out of his body, and it appeared in his hand.
It was a drop of blood with a reddish hue mixed with a faint golden color. Even without careful examination, one could sense the immense power contained within this blood.
"It wasn't easy; it took me five bottles of Life Extension Pills to condense this."
Condensing life essence blood consumed a significant amount of mental and physical energy. Fortunately, he could continuously convert life essence through his vitality. However, the price was that half of the ten bottles of Life Extension Pills he had exchanged from the County Lord's Mansion's treasury had already been consumed.
He turned his hand, and a piece of bluish-gold stone the size of a human head appeared in his hand.
It was the bluish-gold stone known as the Ancient Divine Gold.
Originally, this bluish-gold stone was used to repair the Heavenly Sealing Divine Array, but the current actions of the Yao Clan had completely disrupted the plans of the Great Yu Dynasty.
Now, it seemed that the Great Yu Dynasty and the other nine major forces couldn't even protect the Heavenly Sealing Divine Array, let alone repair it.
"The main material required for condensing the external incarnation must contain unique power, and this bluish-gold stone contains immortal power, so it should meet the requirements."
Su Nan took a deep breath and looked at the information displayed on the interface with hope in his eyes.
[You have obtained a technique called "External Incarnation" and, according to the requirements of the technique, condensed a drop of life essence blood. You are ready to condense your external incarnation using bluish-gold stone as the material.]
[In your opinion, the bluish-gold stone contains immortal power and meets the requirements for condensing your external incarnation.]
[Following the method outlined in the technique, you drop your life essence blood onto the bluish-gold stone and then begin to perform the technique to condense your incarnation.]
[As you perform the technique, your drop of life essence blood, as if alive, rapidly seeps into the bluish-gold stone. Simultaneously, an invisible connection is established between you and the bluish-gold stone.]
[The three types of bloodline powers belonging to Zhang Yang in your body are extracted and rush into the bluish-gold stone at lightning speed. At the same time, your life force and destiny are drained and flow into the bluish-gold stone.]
[As the bloodline powers and life force flow into the bluish-gold stone, it begins to change. The originally extremely hard bluish-gold stone twists and distorts, gradually taking on the appearance of an infant.]
[One minute later, half of the three types of bloodline powers belonging to Zhang Yang have been consumed, and the bluish-gold stone has completely transformed into the appearance of an infant. Your external incarnation has taken initial form, growing at a visible rate with the influx of your bloodline power.]
[Two minutes later, your external incarnation has grown to the appearance of a fifteen-year-old youth.]
[Three minutes later, your external incarnation has grown to the appearance of a twenty-year-old young man.]
[Finally, your external incarnation has grown to the same age as you.]
[Congratulations, you have successfully condensed your external incarnation.]
[Unfortunately, because you have condensed an incarnation with the power of the Law system, it does not completely match the immortal power contained in the bluish-gold stone and cannot fully unleash the power within the bluish-gold stone.]
"Not a perfect match?"
Su Nan furrowed his brows and, after a moment of contemplation, understood the reason.
He was currently using Zhang Yang's character, and the bloodline powers extracted during the process were also Zhang Yang's bloodline powers.
This meant that the external incarnation could only possess the abilities of one of his characters.
And coincidentally, the immortal power contained within the bluish-gold stone did not completely match the Law system's power.
"The materials used must match the player's abilities."
"Fortunately, I was reminded by the prediction. Otherwise, if I had chosen the wrong character for the incarnation and couldn't fully unleash the power of the bluish-gold stone, I would have lost out."
"Let's try Lang Thirteen's character."
After switching to Lang Thirteen, he waited for the cooldown on the prediction to end and began the prediction again.
...
[Congratulations, you have successfully condensed your external incarnation.]
[Unfortunately, because you have condensed an incarnation with the power of the Secret Power system, it does not completely match the immortal power contained in the bluish-gold stone and cannot fully unleash the power within the bluish-gold stone.]
Still not a perfect match.
There was no choice but for Su Nan to switch to Wang Nan.
Fortunately, this time, he was not disappointed.
...
[Congratulations, you have successfully condensed your external incarnation.]
[Because you have condensed an incarnation with the power of the Physical Prowess system, it completely matches the immortal power contained within the bluish-gold stone. Your incarnation has successfully acquired a hint of immortality.]
"It worked!"
Su Nan's eyes brightened, and without hesitation, he took out a bottle of Life Extension Pills and swallowed it whole. Then, he began to condense his external incarnation according to the prediction's instructions.
Five or six minutes later, a young man who looked exactly like his original character was seated before him!
"This doesn't seem like an incarnation; it's almost indistinguishable from my own body."
Looking at the external incarnation before him, Su Nan was filled with astonishment.
The incarnation felt like an integral part of him, easily controllable, and even more closely connected than the link between him and the Flame Spirit.
The incarnation opened its eyes and looked at him. At this moment, Su Nan felt like he had gained an extra pair of eyes; he could see himself through the incarnation.
"Whatever the incarnation can see and hear, I can see and hear too."
[Congratulations, you have successfully condensed your external incarnation.]
[If this incarnation is not withdrawn from the game when you log out, it will be left in the game and cannot be controlled further. Only when you log in again can you continue to control it.]
[The incarnation does not truly die; after each death, it can be recondensed at the cost of a large amount of bloodline power. For other abilities, please explore on your own.]
Chapter 180: Incarnation Condensation
"If it's not withdrawn, it will be left in the game? It seems I need to be careful when using incarnations to log out in the future."
After taking note of this, he couldn't wait to start researching the abilities of his incarnation.
More than ten minutes later, he had finally researched the abilities of the incarnation to some extent.
He found that there were two ways to control the incarnation.
The first way was the simplest: it was like controlling his own arm. If he wanted to make a fist, the incarnation would make a fist; if he wanted to turn around, the incarnation would turn around.
In this mode of control, the incarnation was like a humanoid machine, capable of carrying out all his commands.
Yes! It was like a machine!
A machine without a soul or consciousness!
"No soul? What if I use the incarnation to steal the divine artifacts from the City God Temple?"
The moment he discovered that the incarnation had no soul, a bold idea popped into Su Nan's mind, and he couldn't help but breathe faster.
Once someone touched or moved the divine artifacts, their soul would be pulled into the bizarre space formed by the divine artifacts.
He had thought before that if he could find something without a soul, he could touch those divine artifacts.
Now, the appearance of the external incarnation outside his body happened to fulfill this requirement.
"This method can be tried, but I don't know if the result will be the same as using a stick to move the incense burner."
Compared to the first mode of control, the second mode of control was much more magical.
He found that he could separate a part of his consciousness and enter the incarnation's body, allowing him to multitask.
With his consciousness inside the incarnation, he could access the personal information panel, the taskbar, and even the personal space.
Unfortunately, the incarnation couldn't merge with bloodlines, operate the Yao Scriptures, or use anything from Wang Nan.
Inside the incarnation, his Fate Wheel Scripture couldn't be used, he couldn't switch characters, and the character was fixed as Wang Nan, unable to use the powers of Zhang Yang and Lang Thirteen.
Fortunately, Precognition, Transcendental Movement, and Shape-Shifting were available.
However, the usage of both abilities was shared with his main body.
Moreover, it was evident that the incarnation's physical body was much stronger than he had imagined, thanks to the material used for its condensation.
He delivered a full-force blow to the incarnation, but it couldn't be injured!
It was incredibly resilient, and any wounds inflicted on it would instantly heal and disappear.
"Immortal Power! This is definitely because of Immortal Power!" Su Nan was pleasantly surprised. Who could refuse an incarnation with a body and recovery like this?
It was like a humanoid tank.
"In this way, even if I can't use the powers of Zhang Yang and Lang Thirteen, with the incarnation's physique and recovery ability, I can still fight against mid to late-stage Profound-level demons!"
Overall, the condensation of the incarnation didn't significantly enhance his strength, but having two bodies opened up many possibilities.
For example, he could send the incarnation to Red Mountain County with the treasure map and enter the cave!
Thinking about this, Su Nan's eyes lit up.
"I wonder if the external incarnation can be used in the real world?"
With a thought, he retracted the incarnation in front of his eyes.
In his body, at the location of his heart, a small green dot the size of a bean appeared. It was the condensed form of the external incarnation, quite mysterious.
Log out of the game.
Climbing out of the game capsule, he thought for a moment and then, in the next moment, the external incarnation appeared before him.
"It can also be used in the real world. Now, my true identity has another layer of protection."
Retracting the external incarnation, he logged back into the game.
The Exorcism Bureau.
As usual, Su Nan visited the Exorcism Bureau every day.
What he didn't expect was that as soon as he logged in as Zhang Yang, someone came to find him.
They were three outsiders.
"Let me introduce ourselves. We are members of the Destiny Society. Zhang Yang may not have heard of us, but it doesn't matter. As long as you know that the Destiny Society has significant power in the real world."
"This time, we are inviting you to join us in dealing with that Wang Nan."
So soon, they came to find him?
Su Nan observed the three individuals and noticed that all three of them had formidable strength, reaching the full mastery level of four ordinary bloodline types, and they could potentially enter the Spiritual level at any time.
Such strength would undoubtedly place them in the top hundred players currently.
"Just the three of you want to deal with the top-ranked Wang Nan? Even if you were at the Spiritual level, you wouldn't make a difference in front of Wang Nan," Su Nan said, not hiding his sarcasm.
The three individuals remained unfazed and said, "Our strength may not be enough, but we know you can do it. We've also invited some other players."
"Why do you think I would take action? What's in it for me to go against the top-ranked player?" Su Nan asked casually, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
"We have Ancient Scriptures! We have Artifacts of Law! Zhang Yang, as the third-ranked player, should know about these two things, right?"
"As long as you can successfully kill Wang Nan once, we will give you an Artifact of Law!"
"Oh? So you'll give me an Artifact of Law just for killing that Wang Nan once?" Su Nan was surprised.
He had expected that even if the Destiny Society was willing to give him Artifacts of Law and Ancient Scriptures, their conditions would likely involve him killing Wang Nan many times or causing substantial harm to Wang Nan.
But he didn't expect that they would offer an Artifact of Law for just one kill.
This was somewhat strange.
"Even if I successfully kill Wang Nan once, what's in it for you? I don't see any benefits for you in killing a player like him just once," Su Nan asked.
"We don't need you to worry about that. We have our own methods," the three individuals said confidently, as if killing Wang Nan once would be enough to achieve their goal.
Hearing this, Su Nan couldn't help but speculate.
Did the Destiny Society have some means to prevent a player from resurrecting after being killed once?
Su Nan pondered silently whether he should agree.
With the external incarnation already condensed, he could easily orchestrate a scenario in which he appeared to be killed in front of others, in collaboration with other players.
Of course, the one to be killed would be the incarnation.
With one death of the incarnation, he could obtain an Artifact of Law, which seemed like a great deal.
Moreover, he also wanted to use this opportunity to see what methods the Destiny Society had prepared to deal with him.
"Now it's time to meet those players from the Nine Heavens Guild."
