Journey to the West: Life Simulation of Sun Wukong

"Besides, you're my classmate and even more so, a teammate!"

"Trusting classmates, relying on partners, isn't that also an important human quality taught by Ming Lun?"

The atmosphere suddenly turned a bit adolescent.

He didn't remember Ming Lun ever giving them such guidance.

The four of them found a large pharmacy and collected some medicines.

Su Jie also found some gauze, and Zhang Manman and Chen Tian Yuzi helped with the bandaging.

However, it wasn't very effective, showing no signs of improvement.

But something was better than nothing.

Su Jie tried taking some Healing Medicine and also applied some topical ointment, but the healing was extremely slow.

As expected!

Zhao Xinglong hadn't deceived them; Su Jie's injuries were the same as if his physical body in the real world had been injured and simply couldn't rely on the game's medicines for recovery.

However, his life force had already reached 7, and his recovery speed was much faster than an ordinary person's.

With such injuries, he would probably recover in about half a day.

But, the competition only lasted a maximum of thirty minutes.

Clearly, he would have to fight with his injuries before the match ended.

Luckily, the injuries didn't greatly affect his combat abilities.

The strength he could exert would not be affected.

"Zhao's words were true."

Seeing the pus still oozing from Su Jie's bandaged wound despite taking medicines, Zhang Manman was shocked.

The medicines in the game that could heal any wound simply had no effect on Su Jie!

"The game can heal our bodies evolved from the Mental Realm, which is probably some setting of the illusion world."

Su Jie moved his body, feeling better than before, and put his coat back on.

"And Zhao and they might have certain authority, beyond that setting..."

"So my injuries can't be healed by ordinary items in the game."

Zhang Manman immediately understood, "If ordinary ones won't work, then special items, those from other dimensions, should be effective for you, right?"

"That's true." Su Jie revealed a radiant smile, "Unfortunately, I left the Dragon Blood and spinal pearls outside, so I can only rely on my body to recover slowly."

This was a bit troublesome.

Without those items, hoping for a quick recovery was like a fool's dream.

Zhang Manman said, "You're quite optimistic... I'm going to absorb the Crystal Heart."

"Right." Su Jie lowered his arms, "We'll keep watch."

Zhang Manman opened the box and took out the Crystal Heart.

Pure white light radiated from it, so pure.

Under the influence of Zhang Manman's spirit, the thumb-sized Crystal Heart transformed into a stream of white light.

Like a ribbon, yet like a wisp of cloud.

Soft, yet resilient.

Under the pull of the spiritual power of Zhang Manman's Minor Settled Realm, the white ribbon entered her forehead and connected to her brain.

In the illusion world, though the physical body is a manifestation of the spirit, it is no different from the real-life physical body.

Thus, the Crystal Heart easily fused with Zhang Manman's pineal gland, turning it into a crystalline structure.

Hum——

Zhang Manman's body trembled, her skin appearing to have turned completely to crystal, translucent, bright.

But it was only a momentary thing.

The crystal skin reverted to flesh and blood, and her skin looked even smoother, like lustrous jade.

Correspondingly, Zhang Manman's life force also reached above 3.

3.1, 3.2, 3.3...

Life force kept rising until it reached 4, where it stopped increasing.

Zzzt!

Upon opening her eyes, there was a spark of electricity in the empty room.

Zhang Manman, sensing the rise in her life force, couldn't help but be surprised, "The Crystal Heart didn't directly improve my Mental Realm, but it indeed broke through the limits of the physique, allowing my life force to continue to increase."

"I estimate my Minor Settled Realm's limit is around 5."

Chen Tian Yuzi clicked her tongue, "That's close to Great Meditation life force!"

Although she had merged with Angel Wings, because her Mental Realm hadn't broken through, and the transformation from the Angel Wings was slow, her current life force was only 2.9.

If her Mental Realm didn't break through, she could only wait for the slow transformation from the Angel Wings over a long time.

Jos was shocked but then became excited.

He also had a vampire heart, and perhaps absorbing it could save him a great deal of training time.

"Congratulations!"

Su Jie congratulated.

"Just 4, still not as good as you." Zhang Manman humbly replied, revealing a transparent crystal on her forehead, and in the blink of an eye, a figure identical to Zhang Manman appeared.

A thought-form!

Su Jie curiously examined it and found it to be exactly like Zhang Manman herself, down to every smooth strand of hair.

Truly a peculiar duplicate.

"Using this thought-form feels a bit weird," said Zhang Manman's thought-form, touching her own body and looking at the real Zhang Manman, "Seeing oneself feels eerie... it's like being of two minds, but not quite. To use a more fitting analogy, it's like my consciousness has split into two."

"Then it's a duplicate that can be used to mislead others... Does this thought-form have any offensive ability, or is it just something like an external embodiment?" Su Jie inquired about the nature and properties of the thought-form.

"Not just appearance, it has capabilities equal to mine," Zhang Manman herself spoke up, "And since it's a thought-form, kind of like an aggregation of energy, it can be used as a human bomb."

Zhang Manman's thought-form was speechless, "Who uses their duplicate like this?"

Jos was surprised, "Does the thought-form have its own will?"

Zhang Manman nodded, "Didn't I just say? It's like dividing my consciousness in half."

"Indeed."

The thought-form stood with her hands on her hips, "So, I have my own personality!"
