Chapter 1141: Chapter 164: All Terra People Should Kowtow to Inega II (6600)_3

Besides this, Ian had another idea.

—Can he strip away his silver chip and offer it to others, sharing the rites of the Star Gods with them?

During countless solitary moments in the past, Ian had thought about what it would be like if Teacher Hiliad had possessed a silver chip from the beginning. In that case, even the Ice Prison Calamity Ash probably wouldn’t be able to harm him, right? In such a scenario, Inega II would not die, and together, they could be invincible on Terra, crushing the entire Empire with pure violence and reshaping the world into what they desire.

Of course, from Ian’s perspective, Inega II was slightly naive in terms of sociology. Clearly, the Terra Natives, upon learning about the systems of the previous civilization, imitated them without understanding their essence and conducted reforms. However, if he didn’t die, he could learn from his mistakes and gradually improve.

If that were the case, the current Terra would definitely have a more hopeful appearance.

But Inega II didn’t do that… To be honest, Ian believes that if it were really the Inega II in Teacher Hiliad’s mind, he would absolutely share the silver chip with the teacher if he could.

“Hmm…”

Ian gazed at the miniature silver chip in his hand, feeling a subtle resonance with it, an extreme closeness, as if it were another self…

Another self…

“Wait?! Echo? No, stronger than an echo…”

Ian suddenly widened his eyes, feeling a chilling sensation.

He figured out why Inega II didn’t give the silver chip to other people he trusted: “This… isn’t this the mirror?!”

As a part of Ian’s thoughts and soul, the silver chip can, if merged sufficiently, fully become the essence of Ian’s soul, making the young man’s soul as hard to destroy as the Dragon Soul — this is also the reason Ian has powers similar to the ‘Lich’s Phylactery’ in the Redwood Forest simulation.

Thus, the stripped silver chip is actually a fragment of Ian’s soul, a fragment of his thoughts!

In this way, as long as Ian doesn’t die, if the silver chip is absorbed by others and they cannot resist Ian’s soul, then their thoughts and souls will gradually be consumed, converted by the silver chip with Ian’s consciousness… eventually becoming an identical Ian!

Possibly even a ‘Second Ian’ who exists independently of the current Ian, controlling another body!

This is the mirror! A complete replication — from soul, thought to will and belief, entirely identical method of immortality!

Yet…

Ian has no way to control this fragment.

In other words, this extra Second Ian is an independent existence, possibly weaker than the initial Ian due to physical reasons, yet possessing its own wisdom and mentality.

If the initial Ian wants to reclaim his silver chip, the Second Ian, if unwilling, will resist the initial Ian.

In other words, with the status of Inega II as the strongest Spirit Energy User on Terra at that time, if he had shared the silver chip with Hiliard, even Hiliard couldn’t resist his master’s soul, would be brainwashed and completely converted into a second Inega II.

The Black King would never do such a thing. Whether from emotions or interests, it’s the same.

Because the Black King actually couldn’t defeat Hiliard, even if he was utterly vicious and a supreme bastard, turning the continent’s foremost power that trusts him into merely a top-tier fighter’s version of himself (with a high chance to rebel), seems outright dumb.

Yet Ian’s chilling reason is not just that point.

Rather, with his wisdom, he instantly thought of a method to cultivate the silver chip.

—As long as he continuously divides the silver chip among ordinary people or low-level Sublimators, using common physiques to gradually cultivate souls, strengthen the silver chip and then harvest… he could quickly increase the fusion level of the silver chip, transforming himself into a nearly Dragon Soul-like Lich form.

Yes, the self-replicated from the silver chip may rebel against him, but how could they possibly contend against the strongest self with the first-mover advantage?

Moreover, the bodies absorbed by the silver chip would become puppets controlled by Ian, becoming part of Ian’s power.

Enslaving puppets, controlling soulless bodies, an extremely powerful, indestructible Lich Soul entrenched in its territory, advancing technology, amassing power… until the conquest of the entire world.

This is practically a Terran undead catastrophe… even a human complementation centered on Ian…

Such a disaster, in the end, all humanity would be Ian, and Ian would be all humanity.

He would be the sole existence, devouring the god of Terra civilization!

And if Inega II as an emperor hadn’t discovered this possibility, it could perhaps be a stroke of luck for the Imperial People, but if he discovered this possibility… yet didn’t implement it.

“The Imperial People should bow to Inega II a few times, no, all Terra People have to worship him, grateful that Inega II is a super good person with a steadfast will and sound morals!”

Ian muttered a few words in Chinese, briefly shaken just now, suppressing the thought solely because he knows the risk is too high. Moreover, for someone who has already studied the meditation technique and Arcane Pathway, it’s not significantly meaningful—he has found a method to strengthen his soul and merge the silver chip, why bother slaughtering his territory for the so-called indestructible Lich Soul?
