Chapter 155
Seeing Zhang Hao's calm and composed demeanor, Wang Canghai felt a sudden, inexplicable panic.
He shook his head. Zhang Hao looked to be only in his teens or twenties. Even if he was a genius and had undergone the most rigorous training since childhood, he would have absolutely no chance of winning against the dozen or so experts he brought.
The panic I felt just now was definitely just a coincidence, and it could never have been caused by Zhang Hao.
"If I hadn't taken a liking to your body, do you think you'd still have the right to speak?"
With a single glance from Wang Canghai, the dozen or so men he brought with him moved inwards, trapping Zhang Hao in the middle, unable to move.
"If you know what's good for you, surrender and you'll suffer less. Otherwise, don't blame me for taking over your body and tormenting your mind!"
No matter what Wang Canghai said or did, Zhang Hao remained calm and composed, appearing confident and assured.
He slowly raised his right hand, and a ball of white lightning suddenly crackled in his palm.
Before anyone could react, he flipped his hand, and several bolts of lightning appeared out of thin air and struck down at the people next to him.
"Boom!"
The person struck by lightning died instantly, turning into a charred corpse lying on the ground.
"what?"
"What was that just now?"
"Who the hell are you!"
Four or five of the dozen or so men who were attacking Zhang Hao fell instantly, and the remaining dozen or so men were horrified when they saw the corpses on the ground.
Those people were all highly skilled fighters, just like them.
They were usually unmatched when they roamed the outside world; even the most powerful Japanese ninjas were no match for them.
Then, several of them were killed by Zhang Hao with a single palm strike.
Watching them die right before my eyes was a shock I had never experienced before.
No one expected that a teenager would have such amazing skills!
Before they could react and prepare to escape, several more bolts of lightning struck down.
With a loud bang, several more people fell to the ground.
The air was instantly filled with the smell of burnt meat.
"escape!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and the few survivors took off running.
Zhang Hao wasn't about to give them a chance; with a flick of his wrist, several more bolts of lightning struck down.
The few people who had just run a short distance were instantly reduced to charred corpses.
From the moment Zhang Hao made his move until all the dozen or so experts from the Wang family were killed, only a few breaths passed.
As all this was happening, Zhang Hao slowly walked towards Wang Canghai.
When Wang Canghai saw Zhang Hao approaching, he not only wasn't afraid but burst into laughter, completely losing his mind.
"Powerful, incredibly powerful! I'm taking your body!"
"Is that so? You think your methods can kill me?"
Without saying a word, Zhang Hao immediately threw a punch.
His punches were so fast that they were almost imperceptible.
All that was noticed by everyone was that Wang Canghai's head had suddenly disappeared.
Only Zhang Hao knew that the reason he disappeared was because, with the added force of his own weight thousands of times greater, his head was smashed into dust and dissipated into the air by a single punch.
As he threw his punch, an invisible figure detached from Wang Canghai's body, transforming into a stream of light that entered Zhang Hao's mind from between his eyebrows.
"Ah……"
Zhang Hao never expected that Wang Canghai would attempt to forcibly take over his body with his consciousness before he died.
However, he clearly made a mistake.
This wasn't the first time someone else's consciousness had entered Zhang Hao's mind.
He already has the means to deal with this kind of thing.
Zhang Hao immersed his consciousness into his mind and saw a small, illusory figure that looked just like Wang Canghai appear in his mind.
When Wang Canghai saw Zhang Hao appear, he opened his mouth wide and charged towards him.
He was planning to devour Zhang Hao's consciousness and then take over his body.
"Roar……"
Just then, a majestic mythical beast, the Qilin, appeared out of thin air.
With a roar from the Qilin, Wang Canghai's consciousness suddenly trembled, almost shattering.
He stared in horror at the Qilin in the sky, falling into despair.
"Are you a member of the Zhang family?"
"No, even the patriarch of the Zhang family with the purest bloodline could not possibly possess the ability to manifest bloodline form!"
"Ok?"
Wang Canghai actually knew about bloodline transformation; he truly deserves to be called a monster who has lived for hundreds of years.
However, once his consciousness is swallowed up, everything he knows will appear in his memory.
So Zhang Hao didn't waste any words with him.
The mythical beast Qilin roared once more. This time, Wang Canghai's consciousness couldn't even withstand the attack for a second before shattering into countless fragments that were devoured by the Qilin.
"what……"
Suddenly, hundreds of years of memories flooded my mind, causing a splitting headache.
Even Zhang Hao found the pain unbearable.
Images began to appear in his mind, and this state lasted for more than ten minutes before disappearing.
Once the pain completely disappeared, he fully integrated those memories.
"Just as I guessed!"
Wang Canghai's memories have been altered; they contain no information about the Wang family.
However, it wasn't entirely without any gains.
He learned from Wang Canghai's memories that Wang Canghai conducted a large number of experiments after learning about God's method of immortality.
After decades of effort, he finally mastered a way to make his consciousness possess other people's bodies and live forever.
Although there are strong side effects and the need to constantly change bodies, it ultimately leads to immortality.
However, the biggest drawback of this method of immortality is that if there is no suitable body, consciousness will dissipate soon after the current body dies.
So, just in case, he made many copies of his consciousness and hid them in different places.
By revealing the specific location of the ancient tomb, people are drawn to explore it.
The mechanisms and traps in ancient tombs are designed to select suitable bodies.
If someone perseveres to the end, it means that person is at their best in terms of physical condition, intelligence, and potential.
Moreover, there are mechanisms along the way that erase people's memories, so when his consciousness reappears, it will be foolproof to take over other people's bodies.
There's no need to worry if multiple consciousnesses successfully possess someone else's body.
Because each of them believed that they were Wang Canghai himself, and that they would fight to the death if they met.
The one who survives in the end is the strongest and the only one.
In other words, Zhang Hao had just killed only a wisp of Wang Canghai's many consciousnesses.
Wang Canghai did not actually die.
To kill him, you would have to find and kill all of his consciousness.
Consciousness is invisible; it is extremely difficult to find it all.
This is also the answer that Uncle Wu has been searching for.
What method can be used to kill all these monsters at once?
Zhang Hao shook his head; now was not the time to think about these things.
Fortunately, although they are all the consciousness of the same person, they do not communicate with each other.
In other words, the secret of Zhang Hao's identity as Wang Canghai, whom he encountered, will not be revealed for the time being.
Since Wang Canghai could make the connection to his identity, then surely some of those whose bodies were possessed by gods could also discover it.
Zhang Hao knew that the time when his identity would be completely exposed was probably not far off.
We must improve our strength as much as possible before our identity is exposed.
Only in this way can we have the confidence to face even the strongest enemies.
