My 'Healing' Game

The flesh embryo had never encountered such a troublesome enemy. Many survivors in this city wanted to kill it, but only Han Fei wanted to devour it and become it.

The source of evil, the flesh monster, the owner of the Deceit Building, all the intimidating titles of Gao Xing were like seasoning to Han Fei. This greedy Taotie excelled at tasting dangerous and rare "food."

Ghosts eat people, people eat people, it's the foundation of the cycle. Previously, the process of eating often wore the clothing of civilization, making the biting and chewing less ugly. But Disaster tore that masking layer apart and laid the bloody truth before everyone.

"To satisfy ambition, one must continuously devour; swallowing brings strength but also mental pollution and madness, ultimately leading to death in the ever-expanding desire." Han Fei knew his fate, understood the dangers, but he could no longer stop.

Once the beast of greed is released, there is no turning back.

"Devour it!"

The Divine Spirit Eyes and the flesh embryo fought for control of the rules. In the black fog, Han Fei and all the ghosts and monsters charged towards the monster in the Blood Lake.

This was a gamble. Han Fei wagered everything he gained after entering the Shrine Memory World. He wanted to take everything from Gao Xing and let the Twin Flowers, Gao Cheng, replace him and bloom!

The desperate Black Water poured into the Blood Lake, like black and red dragons rolling and entwining. Cracks appeared on the flesh walls of the Flesh Factory, and the monsters crawling out of the Blood Hole fled in all directions.

The flesh embryo, which had been killed multiple times before without panic, finally showed change in its eyes. The vitality absorbed by the Flesh Ghost Creature was far from enough for its birth. To prevent being devoured by Han Fei, it began to actively burn its flesh.

Blood-red flames emerged from its enormous body, more bloody and evil than the hatred-fueled Black Fire, seemingly entering a new stage.

Blood, flesh, skin, the blood-red flames used the embryo itself as fuel, burning more fiercely!

Gao Xing's face fully appeared in the flames, but what really caught Han Fei's attention were his eyes. They were so beautiful as to seem unreal, incomparable to any gem in the world. They were deep, evil, with a special magic.

"Could these be Gao Xing's actual eyes?"

With the flesh burning, Gao Xing's body slowly stood up within the massive embryo.

The blinding and bloody flames scorched the skin. The flesh embryo hadn't grown normally, but the aura it emanated was no longer fueled by hatred. Just one glance made the heart jump, an unspeakable terror.

"Some bugs seem to have crawled into my shrine."

A cold and indifferent voice came from the mouth of the flesh Gao Xing. Without using his power, just a single sentence made Han Fei and Gao Cheng feel cold all over.

"Gao Xing's real self is still in reality, helping Dream to open the channel between reality and the Deep World. It shouldn't be back now." The unspeakable existence wanted to leave the Deep World for reality and had to pay unimaginable costs, which Han Fei knew when obtaining the Paradise Passage. He also wanted to send his neighbors out to see their families in reality, but even the most ordinary Grudge would face great restrictions on leaving the Deep World.

Except for special cases like Dream and Butterfly, who possess Special Abilities allowing them to remotely control humanity through deep dreams, the stronger the ghost, the harder it is to leave.

Gao Xing's real self entered reality to complete the tasks assigned by Dream. The probability of returning before overturning Xinhu is low.

"Gao Cheng, with your own ability, you simply can't reach here. Let me see who is really hiding inside your body!" Connected with the entire ghost creature, the flesh Gao Xing spoke, and countless blood vessels crawled out of the Blood Hole, like serpentine poisonous snakes, burrowing into the black fog, creeping towards Han Fei's location.

"Is it really me? In my memory, Gao Xing wasn't this weak." Han Fei took out the Rebirth Slaughter Saber. In life-and-death combat, he held nothing back.

The Paperman protected Han Fei's body, summoning the Executioner before him.

Besides imprisoning ghosts, the Greed Personality had another Ability, which was using their powers when ghosts cooperated highly.

Shrouded by sin, the Executioner roared, its massive body shrinking bit by bit, all the Evil Thought from executions rushing towards Han Fei's body.

"Long ago, the Rebirth Slaughter Saber could slay Hatred, and after several transformations, it should have no problem cutting down this Pseudo-god!"

Not just the imprisoned ghosts, but Han Fei himself also started fighting desperately. With eight Personality Awakenings, plus the Executioner and Extreme Evil World's boost, Han Fei's physical constitution now exceeded the survivor's limits, stronger than even Fu Lie who walked out of the Eternal Life Laboratory.

Effortlessly cleaving through blood vessels, Han Fei charged forward with the Sea of Fog and Black Water, under the gaze of the Divine Spirit.

"In my Shrine World, you still want to kill me?" Gao Xing said with a playful smile, his beautiful Double Eyes fixed on Han Fei's face, as if to see the soul hidden under Gao Cheng's facade.

Besieged by Four Hatreds, a multitude of personal names appeared on the flesh Gao Xing, all those he killed becoming part of his body. Those people's self-awareness was deceived, their power being used by the one they despised the most.

Gao Xing enjoyed this feeling; true despair isn't being unable to resist, but desperately helping the person one despises most to create the world one despises most.

The countless names of the dead represented Gao Xing's current bloodthirsty slaughter, the flesh Gao Xing being the closest "soul" to his real self, sharing similar personality and behavior—evil, ruthless, trampling on life with impunity, finding joy in ravaging human nature.

After the appearance of the dead names, the flesh Gao Xing's expression became deranged, enormous bone spurs penetrated through his skin, bending behind him. He could freely transform into various murderous weapons, everything capable of creating death and Disaster seemed part of his body.

Parts of the flesh showed cyan Poison Scars, deadly plague was also his attack method. Any living person approaching him would suffer permanent damage to their body.

"To achieve eternity, one must comprehend worldly ailments, with sound flesh, eternal Will—how could you kill me?"

Gao Xing's body was utterly grotesque, an incomplete super-deformity. All over him, only the eyes retained human characteristics.

"You and Butterfly are truly two extremes." Both monsters nurtured by Dream, their abilities and appearances were vastly different, the appearance of the flesh Gao Xing was an immense shock even to ordinary people.

"Do you think I'm ugly? To prolong life, the faces people reveal are a hundred times uglier than my body." Under the gaze of the Divine Spirit Eyes, the flesh Gao Xing fought with the Four Hatreds, the ghost creatures crushed each other, unable to retreat, a deadly battle where one side couldn't hold on and the other would claim all.

"Like devouring? Want to seize my flesh too? Gao Cheng, you will always be a vile thief; no one will ever like you. You and your parents both deserve to die!"

The Flower Sea surged, some unseen flowers bloomed under the night sky, their stems oozing cyan-black poison, specifically targeting Will and spirit—the Soul Poison.

Poisonous rain drifted below, the flesh monster unaffected, Han Fei's brought-in ghosts all howled, yet Han Fei himself, with full resistance to spiritual poison, was nearly untouched.

"Using a body created by Eternal Life Pharmaceutical for premature birth, though incomplete, it's barely usable." Gao Xing's injuries grew, he was beaten beyond recognition, yet no hint of concession was heard in his words.

Soon, those roots in the Flower Sea orderly drooped towards Gao Xing, and the Longevity Heart in Han Fei's Extreme Evil World began to throb frenziedly, showing signs of forceful detachment.

"Teacher Gao! Stop him quickly!" Anian's voice emerged anxiously from the Black Ring: "There are four Hatreds in the Elderly Care Home! Longevity is the heart that collects life, the elder leading the collective Will is my Tutor Tiannian, the flesh Hatred is Undying! When the three devour each other, they become Eternal Life! That is a man-made god, without any flaw, Everlasting and Undying!"

Han Fei did not believe in such flawless "gods" in the world, but he would still stop the flesh Gao Xing. Separated Hatreds might be unmanageable but united as one, he was even less of a match.

Ignoring the distinction between plague and Soul Poison, even knowing the meat before him was laced with poison, he could only swallow madly—this was the only option available now.

The red flesh and the black Greed Abyss are merging at an ever-increasing level, and Gao Xing's shattered body has also become nourishment for the Extreme Evil World. On the surface, Han Fei seems to be gaining the upper hand, yet Gao Xing's indifferent attitude makes Han Fei uneasy.

After Mr. Evil Spirit and Fear Nightmare succeeded in their ambush, the Black Fire of the two Hatred tore off more than half of Gao Xing's body.

As he watched those Undying and Unquenchable flesh meld into the Greed Abyss, becoming part of the Extreme Evil World, an eerie, sinister smile suddenly appeared on Gao Xing's frenzied face.

"My flesh isn't that easy to chew."

As stalks of flower stems fell upon Flesh Gao Xing, he joined forces with the elder controlling the collective will, and all the names on him transformed into distorted human faces: "Whether you are Gao Cheng or someone else, you've taken my things. You will remain in this Shrine forever, becoming a part of me."

The flesh being devoured by the Greed Abyss suddenly stopped merging, and twisted faces of the tragic deceased appeared on the chunks of meat. They cried and struggled desperately, trying to bring down Han Fei's Extreme Evil World.

The blood water poured into the Abyss was also injected with a Soul Poison Han Fei had never seen before. The nascent form of the Personality World he had just acquired began to decay, with a large number of Ghosts and Monsters he and Gao Cheng had devoured teetering on the brink of Soul Scattering.

Gao Cheng's Greed Personality seemed to have lost its effect! He could no longer continue his devouring!

"As punishment for interrupting the gestation of my body, your body shall be left to me." Gao Xing's gaze was wicked and chilling: "Mother gave you too much Love, even allowing you to retrieve past Memories. It appears I can no longer be an obedient child; even if she never forgives me in this lifetime, I must ensure your Soul Scattering."

From the Blood Lake surged dark red blood; fine Blood Silk sprouted from Gao Xing's wounds, burrowing into Han Fei's Extreme Evil World, crawling toward Han Fei's Brain Area.

"You can't escape now. The person helping you seems to have forgotten one thing: the highly destructive Personality of Greed was bestowed upon you by me, and yet you audaciously try to use the saber I've honed to kill me?"

A shrill laughter erupted. In Gao Xing's envisioning, Gao Cheng, driven by a vengeful obsession, would eventually be consumed by his ambition, becoming the sorriest Madman on the street. But he did not anticipate Han Fei possessing a Healing Personality specifically targeting flawed personae.

Confident and intent on destroying Gao Cheng, Gao Xing planned to utilize his own flesh to cause Gao Cheng's Personality to collapse, but in the next moment, the Starlight of Healing and the brilliance emitted by countless personalities shone upon the Greed Abyss, stabilizing Han Fei's collapsing Brain Area.

"What kind of Personality is this?" The power not belonging to the Shrine World left Gao Xing stunned; his wicked gaze transformed into fury, his anger stirring a bloodthirsty longing within: "This feeling... it vaguely resembles that person?"

In fact, relying solely on the Healing Personality was not enough to withstand, but Han Fei was quite fortunate. Earlier, in the third Mental Hospital, he carried away all the personae separated by the Director over the decade, healing them, allowing them to hang over his Brain Area like stars.

Countless personalities intertwining, humans are weak compared to Evil Ghosts, but when everyone's will unites, a formidable power that neither Gods nor Ghosts can harm is born, not mere empty words.

"Gao Cheng!"

Gao Xing's roar echoed underground, pulling the hanging flower stems, aiming to personally kill Han Fei, but he was obstructed by several Hatred.

The two sides were deadlocked, Han Fei's will on the brink of collapse; the situation seemed highly unfavorable for him, yet both parties overlooked one person—Anian.

With Memories of seven awakenings, he was the strongest Combat Power besides Hatred and a participant in the Eternal Life plan, extremely familiar with the Flesh Factory and the Flower Sea.

While all Hatred was being stalled, he found the weakest point in the Flower Sea, where a multitude of Hatred Human nature imprisoned by Gao Xing was held.

Not only was there Hatred from the Shrine, but even real persistent Grudges existing outside the Shrine!

Capable of growing into Unspeakable and establishing a Flesh Shrine, with countless lives taken by Gao Xing, many valuable persistent Grudges were imprisoned in the Shrine as his power source.

The Flower Sea of Deceit Building was such a special place where those most unique human natures and persistent Grudges were hidden deeply and couldn't be found unless, like now, two top Hatreds were exhausting their full effort, revealing a slight flaw.

A river of Memory flowed past the blossoming flowers as Anian, rushing without distinguishing, plucked all the rare flowers swiftly, tore the roots apart, severing the restraints!

A streak of persistent Grudges appeared by Anian, who did not pause his steps, as the chance to penetrate into the deepest part of the Flower Sea was once in a lifetime, something he naturally wouldn't want to pass up.

During the day, he agreed to enter the Elderly Care Home with Han Fei, partially because he wanted to see if his child might be here. For that sliver of Hope in his heart, he plunged his flesh into the Flower Sea, even if it meant burning through the past memories of himself, he would dive deeper.

In the sea of will, time flowed increasingly slow, as Anian, driven by the obsession to find his child, shattered all distractions of the Illusion. When he last tore apart the flower stems before his eyes, he halted in place.

Within his double eyes was a glimmer of Felicity, but also a touch of Disappointment.

He had found the flowers Han Fei sought, but not the soul of his child.

Anian reached the very center of the Flower Sea, in this well-hidden spot unreachable to most, three flowers bloomed.

The most vivid flower was inclusive, warm, and beautiful; its fragrance carried Happiness, with leaves spreading to shield the other two flowers, seemingly symbolizing Responsibility and Family.

To the left of the largest flower, a rose was about to wither, carrying an extraordinary beauty, beauty that was Cruel, beauty that was heart-wrenching.

The little flower to the right hadn't yet bloomed, merely a Bud hidden beneath the stalks, appearing like insignificant weeds.

Without hesitation, Anian plucked all three bright flowers.

As he severed the roots, Gao Xing, who was deadlocked with Han Fei, had his pupils constrict, as if his heart had been stabbed multiple times. He turned abruptly toward the Flower Sea; his "True Love" had been taken!

The pressure on Han Fei eased; just as he exhaled, a familiar voice suddenly surfaced in his mind: "Now is the best time to kill him; what are you waiting for?"

"Number two?"

Han Fei hadn't expected the second child to speak at this moment; this living Unspeakable seemed to be observing him all along, trying to understand his true nature.

No need for Han Fei to operate; a blood-soaked paperman plane fell from his pocket, wobbling along destiny's path toward Gao Xing.

No one paid attention to this thing until the plane landed within the gash of Flesh Gao Xing's chest, and only then did he notice something was wrong.

"The future you possess does not exist. At the end of fate, I saw your conclusion."

The second brain Han Fei obtained in the third Mental Hospital was sacrificed, an Unspeakable aura enveloping his Brain Area; it all seemed part of the second's prearranged plan, every setup interconnected, meticulously crafted for this precise moment.

The Greed expanded several folds, swallowing Flesh Gao Xing and the Underground Blood Lake with him, as number two utilized his Ability to help Han Fei ingest Gao Xing's soul, along with the surrounding Blood Lake.

Having used his Ability to assist Han Fei in devouring Gao Xing's soul, number two's presence also alerted the real body of Gao Xing outside the Shrine that a significant disturbance had occurred within.

"True Love is one of his most cherished works; to take it away means touching his bottom line. You will not have the chance to stop my Blood Sacrifice at Hope New City." Number two spoke before Han Fei could reply: "Accept the gift I've given you, and may you pave the way for the New God with the flesh and bones of the Old God."
