“Sir, may I know what's the point of setting these tests to evaluate my body?” Jared asked.
He was, without a doubt, utterly clueless about why the elder of Archaic Body cultivators was so intent on assessing his physical performance.
“Didn't you want me to help you destroy my brother?” the elder replied.
“Yes, but didn't you also mention that your powers will be greatly reduced once you leave your world and that you won't be able to defeat him?”
“Yes, I did say that. However, there's a way for me to leave my world and still retain all my powers.”
In an instant, everything fell into place for Jared. “Sir, are you planning to possess my body?”
I know soul remnants are capable of possessing bodies... That way, they can retain their powers no matter which world they're in!
To his surprise, the elder shook his head. “It's not a possession. Instead, I'll be merging with your body. When that time comes, I'll be you, and you'll be me... If I possessed you, the two of us would be controlling your body simultaneously, and there's no way we'd be my brother's match! Therefore, what we need is a perfect fusion. Only then can our consciousness and thoughts merge as one. Don't worry... When everything's over, and you can free yourself from this realm, my soul remnant will automatically disappear. I can't leave this place unless I restore my physical body, possess or merge with a person. Do you trust me?” he explained as he stared calmly at Jared.
Of course, the elder knew his suggestion wasn't something most people would readily agree to. After all, Jared would still have control over his thoughts and actions during a possession, but a fusion would turn him into a completely different person.
Apart from his physical appearance, Jared would lose control over everything else, so it was no surprise that he was somewhat hesitant.
