"Therefore, the plan of the spirit of the demon lord has already failed by now. Even if the one-eyed body dies, it won’t have a significant impact on you. I think, instead of busying yourself helping the one-eyed solve this problem, letting it go could also be a viable option."
"When you finish dealing with your issues, you can help the one-eyed switch bodies. That’s the simplest method."
Feili brought up this topic again, while Wen Yu just remained silent...
Feili’s words were not without reason.
The one-eyed body may have perished, but its soul still exists. Once Wen Yu concludes his confrontation with the spirit of the demon lord, he could easily help the one-eyed reconstruct its body—of course, a normal body identical to the one-eyed's original form would be impossible. The eternal night's sleep deeply entrenched in the soul would mean that a normal body couldn’t withstand the toxins of the eternal night's sleep, but an abnormal body would have no problem.
For instance, the body of a soul puppet...
This way, the one-eyed could retain all its skills. Although it would lose most of its battle capabilities, and even completely lose the familiar power and skill system, the impact on Wen Yu wouldn't be significant...
After a moment, Wen Yu finally shook his head.
"Thanks anyway, but if possible, I still hope to not give up on the one-eyed."
Giving up or saving, both choices were acceptable to Wen Yu—there wasn’t much distinction between the two in his eyes, but for the one-eyed, it was entirely different.
After Feili's explanation, it was clear that switching bodies was inevitable; the question was when to do it—right away or wait until the one-eyed completely died before switching...
There was even the matter of whether Wen Yu wanted to preserve the one-eyed's combat capabilities to the greatest extent possible.
This had now turned into an issue of attitude—regarding Wen Yu's stance on the one-eyed.
And Wen Yu's choice was obvious.
...
At this point, Feili had effectively resolved all of Wen Yu's doubts. After expressing his gratitude once more, Wen Yu left Feili's inner sanctum.
Upon returning to the cold storage, Wen Yu continued to ponder the feasibility of switching bodies. He even considered how to preserve the one-eyed's combat capabilities to the greatest extent.
But the more he thought about it, the more complicated it felt.
There were indeed many factors involved...
...
The importance of the one-eyed to Wen Yu was self-evident—the combination of super destiny fight and the blood flesh chapter was a powerful tool for Wen Yu to amplify himself. Moreover, the blood flesh chapter was an indispensable part of the skill system that turned dreams into reality and Wen Yu's immortality.
These two skills were exceedingly significant to Wen Yu!
Under normal circumstances, a soul master could only enhance one skill of their spirit pet, but when Wen Yu's soul system skills reached a certain level, this limitation had been erased—he no longer needed to enhance skills through soul realm space. He could forcibly merge the spirit pet’s skills with his own by pulling them out of the soul body, achieving the goal of enhancing multiple skills.
Under the effects of eternal night's sleep, the one-eyed could no longer return to the soul realm space. Even switching bodies wouldn’t resolve this issue, but for Wen Yu, the impact… could not be claimed to be negligible, but it certainly fell within the acceptable range—he just needed to keep the one-eyed by his side to access its skills at any time.
In other words, once Wen Yu chose to let the one-eyed undergo body modification, the future one-eyed would have to stay close to Wen Yu. This would not only mean that Wen Yu lost the one-eyed as a combat force that could act independently but would also lead to various inconveniences.
However, compared to the significance of super destiny fight and the blood flesh chapter, these inconveniences were tolerable for both Wen Yu and the one-eyed.
In fact, if Wen Yu chose to watch the one-eyed’s body die, after the one-eyed's body perished and Wen Yu finished his confrontation with the spirit of the demon lord, he would certainly place the one-eyed's soul onto a soul puppet, ensuring that he would always keep the one-eyed beside him.
