My Right Hand Allows Me to Merge Thousands of Races-Chapter 255 - 161: New Uses for Nightmare—It Seems the Empire and I Are Fated!

"Death today?"

Shi Yanxin was taken aback at first, but then a look of delight appeared on her pretty face. She quickly asked, "Does Lord Invincible Zhan have a way to find this bastard's true body?"

The reason Jameison was so troublesome was because his true body was too hard to find and practically impossible to catch. Just like his codename, he hid behind the scenes, controlling a puppet like a Puppet Master.

In Jinghai City, any human could possibly be possessed and become his toy!

Forget the true body; even capturing his Sub-Soul was nearly impossible.

Much like Lu Xun's "Planting Willow for Shade," when a puppet was killed by the enemy or he voluntarily abandoned the puppet, the power grafted onto the puppet would vanish into thin air and automatically return from the depths of his body.

The power could never be lost.

The unique aspect of the Puppet Master's ability was that if the Sub-Soul was destroyed, it couldn't return to the true body.

But his true body could automatically retrieve the Sub-Soul. In this process, it's almost unstoppable, with just a thought, the Sub-Soul would disappear and return to the true body.

Even if the Sub-Soul was captured and locked in a container, his Main Soul could retrieve it anytime.

Earlier, Lu Xun realized he couldn't capture the Sub-Soul, so he simply used "Shattered Soul" to eliminate it.

Losing a Sub-Soul would definitely injure the true body.

Now was the perfect time to kick a man when he's down, taking advantage of his weakness to finish him off!

"Alright, leave it to me," Lu Xun nodded, then glanced at the devastated hospital and said to Shi Yanxin, "I'll contact you later."

"Okay, thank you so much," she expressed her gratitude and reminded him, "If you need help, please call on me anytime. The Puppet Master is very cunning and deceitful, treacherous and vicious, you must be careful."

Lu Xun acknowledged with a sound, then activated Netherworld Walk, transforming into a Soul Body and phased through the walls, vanishing with a "whoosh."

***********

The Puppet Master's true body was hidden in the 18th district of Jinghai City.

This was learned through Mind Reading Techniques.

However, this guy's reaction was too quick. The moment he escaped the control of the Truth-Telling Techniques, he immediately wanted to reclaim his Sub-Soul.

Lu Xun had no choice but to swiftly eliminate the Sub-Soul.

Therefore, he didn't have time to read which street or house it was in within the 18th district.

But that didn't matter.

As long as the district the Puppet Master was in was locked down, finding the specific location was too easy for Lu Xun.

He soon arrived at the 18th district.

Buzz!

Upon entering the district, his "Celestial Sense" immediately activated, detecting a sense of crisis.

However, the crisis was very weak, indicating the enemy was severely injured and lost their ability to act, posing almost no threat to Lu Xun.

Due to the weak sense of crisis, it was vague and obscure, making it time-consuming to search, likely taking dozens of minutes to find it.

Lu Xun casually used the "Nightmare" ability from the Night Demon clan.

As the Soul Power surged out, thousands of "light clusters" appeared in his mind, in various colors and sizes, like stars in the night sky.

This represented all the "Consciousness Bodies" of all living beings within a fifty-mile radius!

The majority of Consciousness Bodies were very active, with frequent and intense consciousness fluctuations, as it was currently around three in the afternoon, broad daylight, with many citizens engaged in work, school, entertainment, sports, and other daily activities.

But there were also less active Consciousness Bodies, in very calm, soothing, and serene states, indicating their owners were sleeping. Through these Consciousness Bodies' surfaces, Lu Xun could even see the scenes of their dreams.

He was like a ghost, prowling through the ocean of boundless Consciousness Bodies. He could use the "Nightmare" ability to pull awake people into sleep or enter others' dream worlds to alter and edit their contents as he pleased.

Since projecting the Night Demon, the "Nightmare" ability seemed to lack presence, but in fact, it was quite magical.

Moreover, after Lu Xun gathered the traits of six Demon Race bloodlines and evolved into a complete form Ancient Demon Race, "Nightmare" gained significant enhancement.

The enhanced "Nightmare" allowed him to kill in dreams!

By infiltrating a person's dream and wiping out their Consciousness Body, their Soul would dissipate, and their physical form would silently die in their sleep.

It's absolutely the Divine Skill that all assassins in the world dream of.

Of course, "killing in dreams" has limitations.

The target's Soul Strength must be weaker than Lu Xun's.

If the Soul was stronger than Lu Xun's, it indicated their real-world combat power would probably also surpass Lu Xun's.

If he couldn't defeat them in reality, it would still be hard to win in the dream.

Moreover, when the Life Level evolves to the Saint King Level, beings transcend the mundane, no longer needing sleep, food, or even breath, able to survive in space. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

If they don't sleep, how can you assassinate them?

Unless encountering an opponent who is "specialized" with high combat power but mediocre Soul Strength, where Lu Xun can't beat them in reality, he can use Nightmare to forcefully drag them into sleep and eliminate them in the dream.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—

At this moment, he was traversing through the endless Consciousness Bodies. Meanwhile, utilizing Spider Sense's guidance, he quickly searched for the vague, indistinct crisis source.

With the assistance of the Nightmare ability, the efficiency was high.

In just over ten seconds, he successfully locked onto a Consciousness Body.

It appeared as a red light cluster with little fluctuation, and its size was much larger than 99% of the other Consciousness Bodies.
