However, after checking the data panel, Jiang Ye quickly realized—

The “dual-soul fusion” state between him and Blue Guan He was actually completely dominated by him.

At this moment, under the influence of his “consciousness soul body,” he could entirely leave Guan He’s body and exist independently!

He could even freely find another player and seize their body!

Using another body to employ the Life Stone should also be no problem.

With this in mind, the frustration he originally felt because Blue Guan He was still inside his body eased considerably.

After some thought, he responded to what Blue Guan He had just said.

“Since that’s the case, then you take control of the body and see if you feel the Lightburn pain.”

Saying this, his consciousness sank into the Nesting Inner Demons within Guan He’s body, where the Reincarnation Ghost resided.

As for Blue Guan He—or more accurately, the real Guan He—this was when she finally regained control over what was truly her body.

She breathed a sigh of relief and cautiously glanced at the Reincarnation Graveyard.

Then, not daring to look too much, she shifted her gaze back to the black ribbon on her left wrist.

Her tone was humble as she asked,

“It’s probably because of this black ribbon that I haven’t felt the Lightburn pain for now.”

“But the area bound by the black ribbon also has no sensation.”

“So, should I try taking off the black ribbon now?”

Jiang Ye replied with a simple affirmation.

He was a bit curious: if this real Guan He took off the ribbon without feeling Lightburn pain, would his other clones also feel the pain simultaneously?

The answer soon revealed itself—

The moment Guan He removed the black ribbon,

Jiang Ye No. 1, who was chatting with Zhou Yuling, immediately turned pale, trembling violently from the pain!

More importantly—

The consciousness soul body version of Jiang Ye inside the Nesting Inner Demons also felt the pain!

So, this pain truly struck directly at the soul!

Even the consciousness soul body couldn’t escape the Lightburn pain!

Yet, amidst the intense pain, what made Jiang Ye most speechless and furious was—

Guan He, clutching the black ribbon with one hand, wore an expression of delight and said,

“See, I really didn’t feel the Lightburn pain at all!”

The young girl’s voice was quite pure and beautiful.

So beautiful that Jiang Ye almost wanted to rush out and slap her!

“Hurry up! Put it back on!”

Guan He, of course, realized that this powerful Reincarnation Ghost occupying her body would feel the Lightburn pain even without controlling her body.

This…

So Lightburn was really that formidable.

At this moment, Guan He vaguely began to suspect—

This powerful Reincarnation Ghost hadn’t annihilated her will or completely replaced her

Is it really because of soul pride that it looked down on doing so?

Or was it that it simply couldn’t fully occupy her body?

Of course, no matter what Guan He thought inside, she didn’t dare disobey this powerful Reincarnation Ghost’s orders.

After all, this guy controlled her body with ease.

Moreover, they already had an agreement.

She would help him grow to a level that no other Light-element player could reach.

Including—

Helping her obtain the identity of Administrator 4444 with a Light-element body!

That’s right, the administrator identity was prepared for Guan He.

Because the Reincarnation Ghost itself seemed to already have strong authority.

And now, it had already entered the Reincarnation Graveyard…

But Guan He had not obtained the Administrator 4444 identity.

She obediently tied the black ribbon back on, then asked the Reincarnation Ghost,

“How is it? You should be fine now, right?”

Fine now?

No!

Jiang Ye still felt the Lightburn pain!

What the hell? What’s going on?

He had a vague guess and immediately took over Guan He’s body again.

Only then did he truly feel the Lightburn pain disappear…

This phenomenon was a bit miraculous.

Jiang Ye tried again, transferring the consciousness soul body to another clone.

As a result, the Lightburn pain returned!

So, Lightburn essentially infected the “consciousness soul body.”

Since all of Jiang Ye’s clones shared the same consciousness,

This pain was shared by all clones.

Because all his clones were essentially one consciousness.

As for the black ribbon, it acted on the physical body.

How it ensured the consciousness soul body no longer felt pain was unclear…

Unable to endure the pain, Jiang Ye immediately returned to Guan He’s body and retied the black ribbon.

After the pain stopped, his gaze toward the black ribbon became somewhat subtle.

He used his True Sight Eye to scan the ribbon, but no information was detected.

According to this experiment, it was confirmed—

The black ribbon acted physically on the body’s surface,

But its actual effect influenced the consciousness!

What did this mean??

Jiang Ye had already suspected—

The Defenders’ Alliance’s tool that helped Light-element players hide their Light aura might have some issues.

Now, it was reasonable to suspect—

This damn thing used to suppress Lightburn pain probably had problems too.

Thinking this way, Jiang Ye should immediately remove the black ribbon.

But the problem was, the Lightburn pain was truly unbearable!

For players infected with Lightburn, this black ribbon was indeed the most urgently needed item!

So, thinking this through, the Defenders’ Alliance was really playing both sides.

On one hand, providing Light-element players tools to hide their Light aura;

On the other hand, providing infected players with this black ribbon…

And both items were indispensable for the opposing Light and Dark factions.

For example, Jiang Ye, infected with Lightburn right now, even suspected the black ribbon had problems.

But because of the unbearable pain, he couldn’t refuse this pain-suppressing ribbon;

And in the Doomsday Apartment, were there also powerful players infected with Lightburn who hadn’t died and were barely holding on?

Would those powerful players also be borrowing the Defenders’ Alliance’s black ribbon?

Then there was Wang Lingling.

For some reason, Lin Ling had spared Wang Lingling’s life.

At the same time, when Wang Lingling was inflicted with Lightburn, she was given the black ribbon to suppress the pain.

At that time, Jiang Ye just thought it was that crazy woman’s sick sense of humor—

Purposely torturing Wang Lingling with Lightburn to force her submission.

But now thinking back, was her real purpose in inflicting Lightburn on Wang Lingling to make her voluntarily wear the black ribbon and become completely dependent on it?

Thinking this way sent chills through Jiang Ye’s heart!

Among the intricate factions in the Doomsday Apartment, corresponding to the Light, Dark, and Neutral camps…

The seemingly neutral Defenders’ Alliance might really be playing a grand game.

With this thought, Jiang Ye grew increasingly serious about his upcoming deal with the Nomadic Merchant.

He wondered if the Nomadic Merchant had a way to solve the Lightburn problem?

If so, what price would he have to pay…

To be honest, Jiang Ye had a bold idea in his mind—

After learning that the Nomadic Merchant’s true body looked exactly like his own, he had speculated that there might be some special connection between them.

So…

Given the peculiarity of Lightburn,

Since he was infected, would the Nomadic Merchant also be infected with Lightburn simultaneously?

Ha, ha ha.

This idea was indeed extremely bold.

Thinking of the deal with the Nomadic Merchant, Jiang Ye naturally took out the administrator puppet, which was wrapped in talisman paper, from the clone shared space.

During the urgent battle, he couldn’t remove the talisman paper.

But now…

He directly tried to remove the talisman paper using Guan He’s body.

The result? Still failed!

What the hell???

Jiang Ye was a bit speechless and dumbfounded.

Inside him, Guan He relaxed when she saw the administrator puppet.

No matter what, with the administrator in hand, her 4444 Administrator authority identity should be secured…

It was just unknown what other plans this powerful Reincarnation Ghost had.

Guan He vaguely felt that this Reincarnation Ghost was acting a bit strange…

Just as she thought this, she saw the Reincarnation Ghost put away the administrator puppet again.

Then, the scene before her eyes flashed, and she left the Reincarnation Graveyard, appearing in…

Huh? The Void Mirror Palace?

Wasn’t the Void Mirror Palace destroyed?

Could this be an illusion created by the Dream-Returning Stage?

Before Guan He could figure it out,

She saw the Reincarnation Ghost remove the black ribbon again and put it away, then say in a pain-suppressing voice:

“I still have matters to attend to. You move on your own as Huang Bo for now. When I finish, I will come back for you.”

Then, Guan He regained control of her body.

At the same time, she sensed that the powerful Reincarnation Ghost was indeed no longer inside her body.

However, the nest constructed by the Nesting Inner Demons still remained inside her.

In other words, that Reincarnation Ghost could still return to her body at any time…

Guan He sighed softly, then, assuming Huang Bo’s identity, began to wander through the Void Mirror Palace.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ye, in his consciousness soul body state, returned to the Reincarnation Graveyard.

More precisely, he returned to the Void Mirror Puppet body that had been exchanged by clones inside the Reincarnation Graveyard.

The special consciousness soul body state could only possess living beings.

So he wasn’t sure if he could possess the Void Mirror Puppet.

But unexpectedly, he succeeded immediately!

Wrapping the black ribbon around the Void Mirror Puppet’s wrist, the Lightburn pain was successfully suppressed!

Jiang Ye waved his right hand and briefly adapted to this new body.

But as he swung his arm, he suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

His gaze flickered as he sliced open the right index finger of the Void Mirror Puppet.

The resulting wound didn’t bleed but quickly healed on its own.

Jiang Ye thought for a moment, then deliberately raised a finger to his nose.

Soon, with controlled breathing, he exhaled a thread of blood.

This blood…

Jiang Ye felt it and then inhaled it back through his nostrils.

He vaguely guessed—

Previously sensing the Void Mirror Puppet No. 1 roaming around the Mirror Palace like walking a dog was probably because it was absorbing blood stuck on the mirror surface.

And the blood-stained mirror surface would automatically shatter, which should be a trap to lure players into bleeding voluntarily?
