This is something that other races the players have interacted with simply cannot achieve.

Including the Soul Beasts.

The parasitic possession method of the Soul Beasts completely devours the original owner and then regenerates a soul beast body with the original owner’s memory and abilities.

In the case of players, after being devoured, they will return to Emperor Zhao, making it impossible to earn through soul beast substitution.

The Black Tide, Insect Race, and other forces have similar devouring techniques.

Only the Soul Fire Clan truly achieves body possession without causing any damage to the player’s body in the process.

Thus, the Soul Fire Clan is well-suited for substitute training gameplay.

However, the Soul Fire Clan compared to other forces has a significant shortcoming.

Existing mature revenue channels share a common feature: stable output.

Models like Imperial Tomb Village, Ah Le Training Camp, Ancient God Arena all follow a sustainable development route.

They even complement player development, pushing each other forward for growth.

The Soul Fire Clan cannot achieve this.

Players can resurrect infinitely, but Soul Clan members can only be consumables.

With dangers lurking in Monster World, the Soul Fire Clan may encounter unbeatable strong clans during substitute training.

Even face the clan extinction crisis in "Divine Descent mode."

If the player’s body carrying the Soul Clan member is destroyed, the consciousness residing within may annihilate.

This continuous loss makes it difficult to establish a substitute training industry chain.

The core goal of their conceived fireseed plan is to solve the survival security issue for Soul Clan members.

Ensuring that Soul Clan members have a significant chance to survive even after a player dies.

This is also the origin of the fireseed plan’s name, preserving the fireseed of the Soul Fire Clan.

Before this, they had already discussed a clearly feasible plan, although the process is rather cumbersome.

Players need to embed two Life Souls, namely Oath Space and Thorny Puppet.

Oath Space is a powerful Life Soul that Damage-taking Stream, Warrior Flow, and assassin players commonly choose.

Its trait effect allows pulling targets into an independent dimensional space for a 1v1 death battle.

Upon death, one can exit the Oath Space.

On the battlefield, Oath Space allows assassin stream players to efficiently cut down enemy rear units.

Damage-bearing Stream Players can also use this Life Soul to forcibly hold strong units, keeping them from rampaging on the battlefield.

The other, Thorny Puppet, is relatively niche.

It is a Life Soul that Summoning Stream users embed, generating a Rule System plant life with a "Reflective Damage Effect."

However, the strength and practicality of the Life Soul are far inferior to the "Fear" Life Soul, also chosen by Summoning Stream users.

Combining these two Life Souls can generate a Level 1 Thorny Puppet, then use Oath Space on the Soul Clan members about to meet demise through the Thorny Puppet.

This way, Soul Clan members will be forced into Oath Space at a critical moment.

Engage in a 1v1 death battle with a Level 1 Thorny Puppet.

Players can pre-consume Qi-Blood and spiritual power to maintain Oath Space for an extended time.

In this way, even if players die externally, the core consciousness of Soul Clan members can be preserved in Independent Space, awaiting players to provide the next "pure body" and restart the cycle of idle substitute training.

But this plan still carries the possibility of errors.

It cannot achieve perfect protection.

But this is already the most reliable plan they could think of.

After all, Soul Clan members are not players and lack resurrection privileges.

Being able to secure even a slim chance of "fortunate survival" in dire situations is quite a challenge.

In the future direction of this "fireseed plan," Xia Sheng and his brothers have thought far.

They believe if this substitute training + safety shelter mode can maturely apply and prove beneficial to both parties.

The entire collaboration model can transition from darkness to light.

Then, there’s no need for laborious disguising, acting, or inducing.

It can entirely evolve into a tacit cooperation.

Like the Ancient God Arena, the Ancient God Race evidently discovered the issues with the players.

But since both sides can profit, there’s no need to disrupt this mode.

Players provide the Soul Clan with a continuous supply of player bodies as temporary carriers and safe shelter in times of danger.

While the Soul Clan, utilizing their abundant combat experience and their trait of requiring no rest, offer players uninterrupted high-intensity "substitute training" services around the clock.

A mutually beneficial symbiotic relationship is achieved.

If this system succeeds, the Soul Clan can continue to survive, develop, and even seek revenge in this perilous world.

Even though it’s just "borrowing an account to play," the ownership of the body is not permanent, but compared to clan extinction or soul annihilation, or living like Soul Fire before, hiding and barely surviving, this is akin to paradise.

Borrowing an account to play is still playing; at least players’ bodies allow them to enjoy the game immensely.

It also provides hope for the continuation of their race.

Meanwhile, players pay minimal costs and gain massive sacrificial power and Life Soul Experience, achieving unparalleled idle victories.

As the cooperation transitions from covert to overt, another significant advantage emerges: the substitute training mode becomes highly flexible and can be interrupted and resumed anytime.

At that time, players won’t need to reclaim body control through extreme measures like "death."

They can establish a set of standardized rental procedures with the Soul Clan.

Discussing this topic, Xia Sheng envisioned the following scenario:

A player battles intensely on a high-intensity battlefield for half a month and wants to take two days off.

He only needs to visit the Soul Clan’s representative in Ashen Land to hire a Soul Clan member for free to temporarily assume control of his body.

This Soul Clan member can control the player’s body, venture into danger zones to mine rare resources, and share the profits with the player.

Or participate in territorial battles on behalf of the Soul Clan, expanding their territory, and accumulating development capital.

After the two-day vacation ends, or if the player temporarily wants to log in, they can communicate with the Soul Clan member in advance to effortlessly "log in" and regain body control.

After implementing this mode, players obtain "idle freedom" and stable idle income.

The Soul Clan possesses nearly inexhaustible "player bodies," serving as their perfect carriers for survival and development in this dangerous world.

This grand prospect fills Xia Sheng and his brothers with enthusiastic expectations, as if witnessing the dawn of a new era.

They realize that as the Soul Clan becomes deeply dependent on players, the relationship will naturally evolve into mutually beneficial cooperation.

At that time, their eight-member team will become pioneers of this new path.

Creating an unprecedented "automated growth industry chain" for the Player Faction.

Its value may rival the discovery of the Ancient God Arena and even the emergence of the adventurer dungeon.

Their game IDs will also be recorded in player history alongside this epoch-defining revenue channel, becoming the founding patriarchs.
