Chapter 722: Chapter 373: Shadow God’s Pawn_3

"During its dormant state, I began experimenting with methods to suppress the Shadow Fur Ball. It’s true the Shadow Fur Ball is the natural enemy of Shadow Creatures, but its abilities are ineffective against Shadow Ghosts with self-awareness. Therefore, as long as I can create a self-aware Shadow Ghost and merge it into my main shadow, I can thoroughly suppress the Shadow Fur Ball through this Shadow Ghost."

"However, a Shadow Ghost is a consolidation of negative emotions, theoretically incapable of having self-awareness. But I refused to believe that. Since the instructions of the Shadow Fur Ball mentioned ’self-aware Shadow Ghost’, this entity must exist. After long-term research, I finally discovered a method to create self-aware Shadow Ghosts: Soul Resonance!"

"Within the same plane, every newborn human’s soul is unique, and it is impossible for them to resonate. But this limitation doesn’t exist across two planes."

"By searching for the most resonant souls in two worlds and immersing them together in the Shadow Space, there is a certain probability that both a regular Shadow Ghost and a possessable Controllable Shadow Ghost can be generated simultaneously. If the two human souls are perfectly aligned, and the regular Shadow Ghost is powerful enough, nearing the Shadow Ghost’s maximum strength, it could potentially develop self-awareness. The other Controllable Shadow Ghost would become a ’commander’, controlling the corresponding regular Shadow Ghost completely to my bidding."

"Since then, I’ve been relentlessly searching for resonant souls in both worlds. The process is challenging, the success rate of creating Shadow Ghosts is much lower than I initially anticipated. Creating the perfect Shadow Ghost was even more difficult, compounded by the necessity of being careful in the Forgotten Land. It took me four years until I finally created the first perfect masterpiece!"

"Number 14?" Mu You asked.

"Yes," The middle-aged man replied, his eyes filled with fanaticism as he looked at the little girl beside Mu You.

"Number 14, originally, I didn’t hold much hope for you as a test subject. From the day you were captured, you demonstrated an exceptional level of rationality, equivalent to an adult’s mental maturity. Generally, such a test subject would be deemed unqualified, because previous studies have shown that among the souls set for Soul Resonance, one of them must be an innocent child– the more naive, the better."

"Unexpectedly, the child who was brought to you later caused such a significant change in you! Both of your souls were perfectly resonant, a situation I had never encountered."

"What are you talking about? Mian Mian is my sister, where on earth did you hide her?" Ye Rumeng looked at the middle-aged man with confusion. He was talking to her, yet he seemed to have mistaken her for her sister.

The middle-aged man didn’t respond to her question, but continued staring at the little girl. "It was then I realized your uniqueness... Or rather, it wasn’t you who was special, but the other child, the girl called ’Meng Meng’."

"I am Meng Meng..." Ye Rumeng couldn’t help correcting him again.

"Because, in the thirteen successful attempts before, children from the Star Spirit World always chose to bear the pain, rescuing the children from the Forgotten Land. Only in your case was it reversed..." The middle-aged man continued.

"So what are you talking about, I mean I am..."

Just as Ye Rumeng was about to refute, she suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder.

She turned around and found that it was Mu You who stopped her.

Mu You sighed, shook his head at her, "Continuing to hide from it won’t do anything, it’s about time you remembered..."

"Remember...what?" Ye Rumeng looked at him, bemused.

"There is nobody left here for you to save... Mian Mian."

Mu You said, looking down at her shadow.

Ye Rumeng followed his gaze, instinctively looking down too, and was immediately stunned.

The shadow projected on the ground had somehow changed. It no longer resembled her, but rather, a taller girl with straight, long hair tied up with a
