Chapter Eighty-Seven: Condensing and Devouring Souls

Ao Zhan sat alone by the bonfire, looking through the "Spirit Devouring Spell" in his hand over and over again, this book is full of ancient characters, except for people like Tuoyu who have been studying the ancient ruins all year round, it is really difficult for anyone to understand. But he knows every word and symbol in it, and I believe that even Tuoyu will be ashamed of this.

"This kid is really related to this exercise. Tuoyu appeared in the distance, looked at Ao Zhan with his negative hand and muttered.

After a long time, Ao Zhan put down the book, spread it on his lap, closed his eyes tightly, and began to try to condense and devour his soul.

"According to the description in the book, the original form of the Soul Devouring is an origin, and it takes several times to squeeze all the shattered souls, and the condensation process is also painful. Ao Zhan exhaled, but his eyes were full of anticipation.

Reciting the Dharma silently in his heart, Ao Zhan began to try.

This exercise can be described as whimsical, ingenious, and even more dangerous and different when it is implemented. Ao Zhanchu noticed the difficulty as soon as he tried, but the most difficult thing recorded in the book was the first step to break and stand up.

After thinking about this, Ao Zhan had no pressure in his heart, and his cultivation was much calmer. According to the detailed cultivation guidelines, he used the secret method to continuously urge the soul sand to squeeze and condense, so as to form the origin of the soul devouring.

A little bit of soul sand kept swirling and contracting, Ao Zhan only felt as if his mind was about to explode, the piercing buzzing sound kept ringing, and he couldn't help but be dark in front of him.

"This cultivation method is really vicious, I don't know which ruthless former sage created it?"

It's nothing to be ruthless to others, but to be so cruel to yourself, that's really ruthless!

Just after Ao Zhan experienced three soul squeezing from the group, he couldn't control it anymore, his eyelids twitched, and the soul sand suddenly collapsed, and he failed.

"Come again!"

After thinking about it for a while, he gritted his teeth and started all over again.

With his first experience, he had made significant progress in soul control and time control this time, but he failed again when he performed the fifth soul squeeze contraction.

"It's still too rushed, I have to control the pace, it's not right to be fast or slow...... Come again!" Ao Zhan muttered to himself.

Constantly trying, constantly summarizing, he has more and more experience in condensing the origin of soul devouring, but he has never succeeded.

"Now I can compress my soul seventeen times, but I still can't condense it into a soul devourer, I can feel it, it's just a little bit, maybe I can squeeze it again and it will be successful......," Ao Zhan thought as he ate roast sheep.

'Whew!'

With a soft sound, Tuoyu appeared by the bonfire out of thin air without saying a word, sat down casually with a wine jug, and looked at Ao Zhan with a smile.

"Senior, you didn't leave?" Ao Zhan was startled at first, and then said in surprise.

Takuyu grinned, "When did I say I was leaving?"

Ao Zhan scratched his head, a little embarrassed, remembered the roast sheep in his hand, and handed it to him. Tuoyu took it easily, and at the same time threw a pot of wine to Ao Zhan.

Cold, the wine jug seems to be made of a piece of fine jade, and the pale yellow slurry inside is fragrant, just smelling it feels comfortable all over.

Ao Zhan didn't say a word, he even took a big sip, shook his mouth so spicy, licked his tongue and said, "I have never drunk such strong wine, compared to this, I am afraid that what I drank before was as light as white water." ”

Tuoyu smiled smugly, "This wine I got from an ancient ruin, not only does it taste extremely strong, but it also has the effect of unblocking the meridians and cultivating the foundation for a low-cultivation guy like you." ”

"No wonder I feel warm and comfortable. Ao Zhan was amazed.

"In today's world, those who have drunk this wine are afraid that it is only the two of us, come, we are happy today, and we will drink it. Takuyu held up the flask and smiled.

"Okay!" Ao Zhan replied, tilting his head and drinking.

The two drank wine and ate meat at the same time, and suddenly shortened the distance a lot. Taking advantage of the atmosphere, Ao Zhan opened his mouth and asked, "Senior, what is the happy event today?"

Tuoyu took a bite of roast lamb shank, and took another sip of wine before replying, "Yes, I stepped out of a bottleneck today, and I have to thank you, this spirit wine can be regarded as a thank you." ”

Ao Zhan Nunu mouthed and whispered, "No, no, you also ate my roast sheep." ”

Tuoyu was so angry that he glared at him, and said in a low voice, "Stinky boy, your broken mutton is so bad that you are dying, how can it be compared to my spirit wine?"

"Hehe, senior, you've eaten most of the roast sheep, so it's a shame, it's a loss of master's demeanor to spread it!" Ao Zhan smiled, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and as soon as he blurted out the words, he himself felt a little strange, as if it was not his own tone of speech.

"Hahaha, I'm in a good mood today, I'm too lazy to bother with you, let's say, what do you want?" Tuoyu scolded with a smile.

Ao Zhan scratched his head and said, "I want to ask my seniors to teach me!"

Tuoyu stopped his movements when he heard this, glanced at Ao Zhan and said, "Do you want me to take you as an apprentice?"

Ao Zhanlian shook his head, "To be honest, I feel like I met my predecessors at first sight, and it's more like ...... Friend, if you want to call a master in the future, think about it is a little weird. ”

Tuoyu glanced at Ao Zhan, and suddenly laughed, "Friend, I, Tuoyu, have been wandering all my life, and I never know what a friend is, it's funny that you kid dares to speak so out!"

Ao Zhan laughed awkwardly twice and took another sip of wine.

"Boy, if you want me to accept apprentices, I won't accept them. If you want me to teach you something, you might as well tell me about it. Tuoyu said with a strange laugh.

Ao Zhan's face was overjoyed, and he replied, "I have some doubts about condensing soul devouring......

"Stop, you should know that the graphic annotation of the Soul Devouring Spell is very detailed, and if you can't even condense the Soul Devouring Spell, then you don't deserve my guidance. Tuoyu scolded coldly.

Ao Zhan touched a bad head, so he could only give up, raise his head and drink the wine in one gulp, and sit down and cultivate by himself.

I don't know if this is the first time I've tried, and although I have learned a lot, this time he is still not sure. The soul sand was constantly squeezing and contracting, and Ao Zhan was familiar with the road seventeen times, but this eighteenth contraction, Ao Zhan couldn't help but hesitate.

'Buzz!'

"Not good, you're going to fail again?" Ao Zhan's eyes darkened, and he immediately knew it.

In an instant, the constantly forming soul origin turned into a handful of broken sand floating in the sea of knowledge.

"There must not be the slightest hesitation in my heart......" Ao Zhan muttered to himself, closing his eyes and trying again.

"How to stand after breaking, how to stand, how to shrink in order to present the most perfect soul devouring origin state?"

Thousands of thoughts surged in the bottom of his heart, and Ao Zhan's whole person seemed to be settled, sitting cross-legged on the ground without moving, letting the breeze blow his messy long brown hair.

Takuyu slowly approached, took a sip of wine and stared at him, a complicated look in his eyes. After hesitating for a while, he finally didn't speak.

"The creator of this method has never mentioned himself, so is this exercise just an idea of his?"

Ao Zhan felt more and more strange, although this exercise was full of pictures and texts, it was very detailed, but every time he cultivated to that place, he would feel like he was in a fog, and it took a lot of effort to scrutinize, but fortunately he had avoided the most dangerous first step, although the condensation process was painful and uncomfortable, but there was no danger to life.

"What is wrong with compressing all the souls and sublimating the quantitative change into the qualitative change?" Ao Zhan meditated hard, always experiencing the taste of failure.

Early the next morning, the sun was rising, and the entire forest was still filled with a thick layer of mist, and the light passed through the layers of obstacles, like thousands of golden rays sprinkled on Ao Zhan's face, cool and warm.

While everything was immersed in this silence, a flock of sparrows suddenly flew into the woods, and the leader one was slightly smaller, but the colorful ones were beautiful. They fly freely, scattering from time to time, and gathering from time to time to form different shapes.

Ao Zhan opened his eyes and happened to witness all this. Suddenly, a feeling of seeing the sun came to my heart.

"Gathering is not true gathering, scattering is not true dispersion, taking soul consciousness as the guide, gathering and scattering from the heart!" Ao Zhan's eyes lit up, "Hahaha, wrong, wrong, blind forced compression cannot really be unified, my own soul, I should be like that seven-colored sparrow to command freely! That every piece of fragment is me!"

'Boom!'

Ao Zhan's soul consciousness roared, and every fragment of the soul emitted a dazzling essence, and all the fragments of the soul rotated wildly, and then each fragment transformed into his own appearance, just like thousands of miniature versions of the transparent Ao Zhan.

"Hahaha, he!" Ao Zhan laughed.

As soon as the thought moved, thousands of villains fused into one, and finally slowly rotated to form a black hole. Looking closely, the soul black hole seemed to be a piece, but in fact, it was like a fragment, and an inexplicable mysterious force closely linked the two.

"The second layer?!" Ao Zhan was suddenly shocked, the state of his soul was actually eighty percent similar to the second layer of state written in the book, but the one depicted in the book was more condensed and pure.

"What's the matter, how can I ......" Ao Zhan was a little dumbfounded, and then secretly sighed that this "Spirit Devouring Spell" is really weird and unpredictable, even if it is full of pictures and texts, there are still too many variables in cultivation.

"According to the description in the book, at this moment, I have just begun to devour my soul, and I must devour my soul vigorously, otherwise the soul devouring that I have worked so hard to condense will collapse in the near future. Ao Zhan's eyes were like torches, looking at the forest he was in, he had lived here for many days, and he knew that there were countless creatures in it.

After a few moments, Ao Zhan strode into the depths of the forest and began to look for traces of the beast.

Soon, a wolf demon appeared in front of him, baring its teeth, drooling, and its green eyes glowing with cold light, looking like it was about to pounce.

"If you want to eat me, hum, take your beast to sacrifice my soul devourer!"

Ao Zhan sneered, devoured the soul and swirled, and a soul consciousness covered out, and with a roar, the originally ferocious wolf demon suddenly showed horror and retreated again and again, but its trembling legs had not taken a few steps, and the entire breath of life had disappeared.

Ao Zhan's eyes flashed, and he only felt refreshed. His soul devouring soul consciousness at the moment is like a sharp mouth, and as soon as he comes into contact with the other party's soul consciousness, he begins to devour it frantically, and even some memories of the other party can be obtained.

"I actually got some memories of the wolf demon. Ao Zhanwan smiled and began to look for the next target again.

......

Devouring sixteen low-level demon beasts in a row, Ao Zhan's soul devouring was a little more condensed, and the scope of his soul consciousness was much broader, but he felt that there was still a long way to go before the second layer of soul devouring was consummated.

Beside the bonfire, Ao Zhan tore the demon beast's barbecue with a big mouth, but his brows were furrowed tightly, "It's obviously performed according to the alchemy technique, why can't you condense the aura in the dantian?"

These many times, every time he slaughtered a monster, he couldn't help but cast blood alchemy to refine and absorb the other party's essence blood, but as soon as these pure blood energy entered the body, it quickly dispersed and was absorbed by the body, and the dantian could not even retain a trace of power.

After thinking hard for a long time, Ao Zhan was quite helpless.

"Senior, senior!" Ao Zhan dropped the barbecue and shouted at the top of his lungs.

After a while, a sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded around the originally silent surroundings, and Ao Zhan was suddenly overjoyed, because he understood that Tuoyu was coming.

Sure enough, Tuoyu, dressed in a black robe, appeared by the bonfire, looked at him with a smile, and said, "The soul devouring has been successfully condensed, what are you looking for me?"

Ao Zhan hurriedly got up and said, "Senior, what I want to ask is about my dantian!"

"Why, can't you condense spiritual power?" Tuoyu said casually.

Ao Zhan chick nodded like a peck of rice, "Exactly, senior, do you know why?"

Tuoyu shook his head slightly when he heard this, and sighed, "Although I don't know what happened to you before, but after I successfully summoned your soul, your soul realm has decreased sharply, and I have to abolish your original strength, lest you explode and die, so that your dantian at this moment can no longer accumulate spiritual power." ”

Ao Zhan's face was bitter, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Senior, is there no other way?"

Tuoyu didn't look at him, turned his hand and took out two pots of wine, threw a pot to Ao Zhan, and drank it with his head up.

Ao Zhan took the wine, but he was not in the mood to drink it, and his face was full of sadness.

Tuoyu saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help laughing, "What do you do with a sad face, can't you accumulate spiritual energy and be a wasted person?" The power of the soul, the power of the bloodline, the spiritual power, the power of the cave sky, which one of the cultivators is not a meritorious person in the end?"
