The appearance of a second head on his neck was a first for Wen Wen, much like a grown man undergoing a certain skinning procedure for the first time.
Although his skin had torn and bled profusely, Wen Wen felt no pain.
The newly emerged head, from the blood, seemed to have sprung from the mud like a lotus, unstained by a single drop of blood.
This head was identical to Wen Wen's, save for a few fine scars on its face. Its skin was as delicate as an infant's, and its scalp was smooth and hairless, revealing only tender, pale skin.
Wen Li, with his mouth full of baby teeth, gazed at Wen Wen with arrogance, as if he had already devoured him whole.
The potion he had produced earlier was no ordinary concoction.
It was an extraordinarily special agent formulated from a drop of blood containing immense power from a divine being of the spirit realm, whose title was 'The Unifier.'
Just as its name suggested, the agent's effect was to bring scattered elements back into a unified whole.
Even if a person were dismembered into ten pieces and hidden in ten different major regions, sprinkling this potion on the remains would cause the scattered body parts to rapidly return to their original positions.
It could even reanimate corpses, provided the soul in the grey mist layer hadn't been consumed by some monster. The soul would be pulled back, thereby truly resurrecting the body.
Its efficacy extended beyond living beings to inanimate objects as well. If a treasure map was scattered into dozens of pieces and hidden across the globe, applying the potion would restore the map.
However, due to the potent energy possessed by both Wen Wen and Wen Li, Wen Li chose to lure Wen Wen to his own territory and administer the Unifier potion while Wen Wen was within his sight, to prevent any unforeseen circumstances.
The potion itself was sound, and the abilities of the Void Domain were beyond question. Therefore, Wen Li was destined to merge with Wen Wen upon his appearance.
They were originally one entity, a being more intimate and equal than a mere clone, indeed, on a fated level, they were the same person.
Thus, the potion took effect. Wen Li's body seamlessly integrated into Wen Wen's, and everything about them began to merge frantically. However, the question of who would dominate the body remained to be contested.
The potion's effect was merely to unite them; therefore, Wen Li needed to personally annihilate Wen Wen's consciousness. He had no desire to share a physical form with another.
Their control over the body and internal energies was equal, and the deciding factor was mental strength.
Wen Li was a genuine top-tier True Sequence cultivator, whereas Wen Wen merely possessed True Sequence-level combat power through various means. Moreover, they were in Wen Li's domain, which provided him with a mental boost while significantly weakening Wen Wen.
Consequently, Wen Li had never considered the possibility of defeat. Having plotted to this extent, how could he possibly lose?
Upon seeing the grotesque, small-eyed head, Wen Wen understood his situation within a second. He immediately brandished his Blood River Sword, intending to sever Wen Li's head.
However, Wen Wen's body suddenly became unresponsive. Neither the Blood River Sword nor the Facility's power could be activated normally.
Wen Li sneered mockingly at Wen Wen, "Now that we are reunited and both conscious, we both possess equal dominion over this body.
"I cannot use the body to stab and kill you, nor can you use it to stab and kill me!
"And my mental will is stronger than yours. You can only watch as I take over your body, and then..." Su Dan novel net
*Bang!*
Before Wen Li could finish speaking, Wen Wen's head slammed into Wen Li's skull, splattering blood across Wen Li's face.
Wen Wen's head, having developed for over twenty years, was quite robust. Wen Li's head, however, was as fragile as a newborn's. How could it compare to Wen Wen's?
Following this, Wen Wen, controlling his only functional head, opened his mouth wide and unhesitatingly bit off Wen Li's ear. He then bit wherever he could reach. In mere seconds, Wen Li's head became a bloody mess.
Although Wen Wen had gained the upper hand in the 'battle of minds,' he was far from optimistic.
This head was merely an external manifestation of Wen Li's power. The true danger lay on another battlefield, where Wen Wen was utterly defeated.
Wen Li was rapidly seizing control of the body. No matter how Wen Wen resisted, he was merely delaying the inevitable.
Wen Li's plan was sound. Without any unexpected interference, Wen Wen truly couldn't resist him. After all, Wen Li had lived ninety-one years longer than Wen Wen. Even if those ninety-one years were spent in combat, he had more experience than Wen Wen.
At the very least, Wen Wen had never anticipated their battle would unfold in such a manner. He couldn't even deploy his prepared countermeasures, and even if he could, they likely wouldn't have much effect.
Wu Liugen's eyes shimmered with golden light as he probed the situation within Wen Wen, seeing it clearly.
He had also overheard Wen Li's words, so he understood Wen Wen's current predicament.
In his view, Wen Wen was beyond salvation. It would be better to destroy the body now, lest Wen Li, after possessing Wen Wen's body, become even stronger.
He and Wen Wen shared a degree of acquaintance and he didn't wish to kill Wen Wen. However, the countless white bones of superhumans told him that sometimes, difficult choices had to be made.
Even Wen Wen, faced with such a situation, would be decisive and wouldn't show mercy.
Thus, Wu Liugen approached Wen Wen, his eyes revealing killing intent. Timir grew alert. As Wen Wen stood between two factions, he perceived Wu Liugen as targeting him.
But at this very moment, a figure wearing a headscarf stepped in front of Wu Liugen. This person was Wang Duobao, who had inexplicably entered the area earlier.
Wang Duobao bowed to Wu Liugen. He was merely an intern, and all formal demon hunters were his seniors.
"Mr. Wu, please do not act. Things may not be as you perceive."
"What do you mean?"
Wu Liugen's expression was filled with confusion. He hadn't yet revealed obvious killing intent towards Wen Wen; how did this brat know he was about to act?
"I know what you intend to do, and I know what will happen after you act, which is why I have come to stop you."
Wu Liugen paused his intended action. He had found this person's sudden appearance within the circle quite strange, and now with him blocking his path, he was even more perplexed. Therefore, he wanted to first understand what this person intended.
"Mr. Wen is our only hope of defeating Wen Li. If you act, it will all be for naught."
Wu Liugen seized Wang Duobao by the neck, lifting him high. "What did you know beforehand? Could you be a mole from the other side? If your answer is not satisfactory, I will destroy your roots!"
Timir watched this farce unfold, making no move to intervene. Wasn't it a pleasure to watch them tear each other apart?
