I'm your little clone child!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom was indeed confused, thoughts swirling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wasn't the self-sacrificing type of father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But blood ties were hard to sever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus his old-fashioned thinking made him want an heir to continue his lineage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tao Sheng might not match other strong players in talent or temperament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless, he was his seed!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom naturally wanted him to live well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the current situation was truly bizarre...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His son's Blood Realm Worm had somehow mutated, draining his son into a desiccated corpse;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mutated Blood Realm Worm had inexplicably entered the shadow phantom portion taken by Jiang Ye...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more absurdly, that shadow phantom portion could move independently from him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How was this possible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom had split his body before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the separated portions were always under his control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn't manage them, the separated parts couldn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, this separated portion not only hosted the mutated Blood Realm Worm but moved on its own!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crucially, its movement after acting...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn't attacking, but head-patting!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was an action showing filial affection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made the shadow phantom immediately think of his son!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Logically, others shouldn't be able to control his shadow phantom body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That mutated Jiang Ye originally couldn't move, so definitely not him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, the only possible controller of this shadow phantom portion was the mutated Blood Realm Worm!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the shadow phantom couldn't determine was—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mutated Blood Realm Worm's filial affection toward him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it because he raised the Blood Realm Worm, so it was naturally loyal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or because the Blood Realm Worm drank Tao Sheng's blood, so Tao Sheng's will was calling for his father?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the mutated Blood Realm Worm showed filial affection, the shadow phantom decided to treat him\u002Fit as his bloodline!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, the shadow phantom's rage seemed instantly soothed by the head-pat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he hadn't given up on Jiang Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom's giant hand reached into the small shadow phantom again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the giant hand passed through the mutated Jiang Ye's pure black body as if one was in the living world, the other in the spirit world, unable to interact. ŕἈɴ𝐎ＢÊ𝘚\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confirming this, the shadow phantom stopped targeting Jiang Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still used his giant hand to grab and retrieve the shadow phantom portion belonging to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the results were unsatisfactory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Jiang Ye felt strong suction when pulled from the shadow phantom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clearly felt strong attraction now between himself and the shadow phantom portion following Jiang Ye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This attraction prevented the shadow phantom from retrieving the portion that had followed Jiang Ye...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, the shadow phantom had to accept reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sighed deeply, then stuffed the Jiang Ye version small shadow phantom back into his belly...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then instantly flashed toward the Ghost Valley Soul Shepherd Formation center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the formation center clearly had issues, so the shadow phantom wanted to investigate and understand the Blood Realm Worm's mutation cause.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, his son's body was still there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the mutated Blood Realm Worm might contain remnants of his son's will.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps someday he could make the mutated Blood Realm Worm completely revive in his son's form?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Doomsday Apartment environment, this wasn't impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, collecting the body wasn't just for father-son sentiment, but also preparing for his son's rebirth!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, this place was very close to the formation center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom wasn't sure if this range would still trigger teleportation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But indeed, until he reached the formation center again, he wasn't teleported out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom relaxed slightly, directly addressing the only barely conscious person here, Xiao Bai:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You, tell me what exactly happened here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he extended his shadow phantom giant hand, tapping Xiao Bai's forehead to comfort her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai instinctively startled, but having heard the shadow phantom's voice before, quickly calmed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai was truly white now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Gou and Peng Gu, except for their heads, had completely whitened, barely human-shaped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai could still be recognized as human, but her entire body was snow-white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even her black hair had mostly whitened, only a few strands remaining slightly black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This indicated...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She probably wouldn't last much longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, Xiao Bai was quite weak now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even her consciousness was blurry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of her fuzzy awareness, she didn't know if Jiang Ye and the Formation Master had further communication...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She only knew that continuing like this would kill her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So facing the shadow phantom's questioning, she barely managed to speak:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take... take me away... I, I'll tell you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, in this environment, she lacked energy to say more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom frowned at her, thought briefly, then said solemnly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I'm not mistaken, you're not Defender Zhou Yuling, you're a Reincarnation Ghost?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes...\" Xiao Bai's voice trembled weakly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom said directly: \"If you were human, I truly couldn't take you away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But since you're a monster, I do have ways to save your life.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this much, Xiao Bai understood clearly—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saving her life probably wasn't just about making her explain what happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This saved life would likely belong to the shadow phantom from now on!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Xiao Bai recently heard from Tao Sheng—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His shadow phantom father could nurture monsters within his body!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And could also convert the monsters' Glyph Pattern Abilities for his own use!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Bai didn't know why the shadow phantom was unaffected in this Forbidden Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she truly didn't want to die...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, before she could answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She heard the familiar voice of the Formation Master coming from the floating air—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Save her life? You're sure?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden voice made the shadow phantom turn sharply, shouting sharply toward the air: \"Who?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze swept around, quickly locking onto the floating Array Disk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom quickly realized the Array Disk must have some voice transmission function!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he came earlier for the Blood Realm Worm without speaking, the Array Disk remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he spoke to Xiao Bai, the Array Disk detected his presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the Array Disk probably only had voice transmission function, like a voice transmission bead!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the voice from the Array Disk's owner...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom's mind raced, suddenly exclaiming:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are... Formation Master?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Array Disk didn't answer, but chuckled meaninglessly, mimicking the tone coldly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are... Multitude Night Shadow?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the Array Disk immediately followed: \"You know me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom didn't know the Formation Master personally, but had heard of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most Array Disks in the Doomsday Apartment came from the Formation Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ghost Valley Soul Shepherd Formation Array Disk too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So whoever used this Array Disk for voice transmission must be the Formation Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom belonged to the special permission status faction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most permission identity players in this faction kept low profiles, not making friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Any friendships were with similar special faction players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shadow phantom was the same, so naturally didn't know the Formation Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only vaguely heard rumors about the Formation Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faintly knew the Formation Master's strength wasn't comparable to ordinary professional players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary players judged strength by level, talent, combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Permission players should theoretically judge by permission class.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But most permission players didn't reveal their permission classes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So this was actually unverifiable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But another relatively accurate method was seeing how long a permission player had lived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like veteran players generally being stronger than new players.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Players famous since Day 7 were naturally stronger than those emerging on Day 8.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those ancient players from Day 6, even Day 5...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In cultivation terms, they were like ancestral elders, immensely powerful, the pillars of their factions!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While ancient players from Day 4, Day 3...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were like ancient mighty beings, legendary existences, unknown if still alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Day 2, Day 1?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to light players' reckless actions, dark players' patient resistance, light-dark factions' scheming...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire situation was turbulent and overturned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basically no players from those two days survived till now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except reincarnators avoiding worldly affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So basically, players suspected to originate from Day 3, Day 4 were already the Doomsday Apartment's most unshakable, nearly invincible existences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the shadow phantom had vaguely heard—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The [Formation Master] permission identity had already become famous and accomplished by Day 4!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that was just when he became famous!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some speculated the Formation Master might have existed since Day 3!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, because the Formation Master disappeared after Day 6, many speculated—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the former [Formation Master] had his Permission Iron Piece exposed, replaced by others...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But regardless, just judging by time, the Formation Master living this long proved his extraordinariness!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Setting aside those rumors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Array Disk could actually be used in the Forbidden Zone...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the Formation Master outside could transmit sound into the Forbidden Zone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This itself proved his considerable strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, knowing his strength, the shadow phantom wasn't intimidated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could tell the Formation Master himself wasn't in the Forbidden Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His only influence here was that Array Disk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that Array Disk couldn't affect the shadow phantom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, unafraid as he was, the shadow phantom couldn't hide in the Forbidden Zone forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he offended the Formation Master, he might face retaliation after leaving someday?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the shadow phantom maintained a relatively friendly attitude toward the Array Disk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He first answered the Formation Master's question: \"Long admired your reputation, but being in a special faction, I naturally couldn't befriend Formation Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then proactively stated:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Master wants this girl's life, I naturally won't insist on protecting her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just... my son Tao Sheng originally teamed up with this group...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But now I find my son has turned into a desiccated corpse, I just want to understand the reason.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Master can enlighten me, I naturally won't care about this mere girl.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Honestly, the Formation Master truly couldn't see what happened in the Forbidden Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could only judge by sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing \"desiccated corpse,\" he wondered inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouldn't deaths in the Forbidden Zone turn into white light?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could a desiccated corpse remain?\u003C\u002Fp>",2170,"2026-06-03T07:17:36.056Z","2026-06-03T07:17:41.425Z",1,"novelbin.me","1ac47254bad5487111759c5ac04f795a7fd85f995c4c9bc4d284fbbab0e2ad8c","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-412","surviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-chapter-410",575,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsurviving-the-doomsday-apartment-with-infinite-c-cover.jpg"]
