Chapter II

"Boy Jiang Li, do you want to have a physical body?" The white-clothed Venerable Lang Feng looked at Jiang Li in front of him and asked.

"Absolutely. But, am I not already dead, how can I still have a physical body?" Jiang Li seemed to see the hope of his own rebirth, but he was still curious about how people could come back to life after death.

"You put your hand on the soul meter first. The Venerable in White said.

Jiang Li Yiyan put his hand on the vessel that looked like a big roulette wheel, and after a while......

"Lao Bai, what's the matter, why doesn't he have attributes? Are you bringing the wrong person?" Looking at the weakly changing soul meter, the black-clothed Venerable said, with some complaints and dissatisfaction in his tone.

"One-star soul power, no soul energy attribute. Could it be that there is a problem with the soul meter?" The Venerable in White was also puzzled, there was no reason! When Jiang Li's soul appeared before, the soul meter obviously sensed a change, unless a soul with huge soul cultivation potential was born, the soul meter would not move.

Jiang Li was confused, he didn't know what soul power and soul qi attributes were, he only cared about whether he could be resurrected.

"That, I want to ask, will this affect my resurrection?" Jiang Li asked cautiously, for fear of angering the two big men in front of him.

"Soul power is the strength of the soul, generally before condensing into the soul of the yuan, it is divided into ten stars of soul power, one to three stars for the low stage, four to seven stars for the middle stage, and eight to ten stars for the high stage. After the soul power reaches ten stars, it can break through and condense into a Yuan Soul. Above the Yuan Soul is the Yin Soul, and above the Yin Soul is the Yang Soul, and only when you cultivate to the Yang Soul stage can you fuse the physical body. The Venerable in White explained in detail.

It turns out that if you want to be resurrected, you still have to pay a lot of price!

The white-clothed Venerable continued, "Only by signing the soul contract and becoming a disciple of the Heavenly Soul Palace can you be qualified to cultivate here. After signing the soul contract, you must complete the corresponding tasks according to the agreement, and you can obtain soul crystals after completing the tasks. Soul crystals are universal in the entire soul realm, it is condensed from unranked soul qi, which can be used for trading, or it can be directly absorbed and replenished to help with cultivation. ”

It seems that if you want to reshape your physical body, you must first sign a soul contract!

"Your Holiness, I am willing to sign a contract. Tell me how to do it!" Jiang Li said.

At this time, the white-clothed Venerable had a sad face and did not answer. The black-clothed Venerable next to him said:

"It's useless whether you want to or not, the premise of signing the contract is to know the attributes of the soul qi, so as to provide suitable magic weapons for cultivation. Now the soul meter can't measure your soul attribute, so there is no suitable magic weapon to provide you. You don't have a physical body in your current state, and you can't cultivate directly. Speaking of which, I didn't forget to add, "Do you think Lao Bai has picked up a treasure this time?" He sighed and shook his head.

After listening to the words of the black-clothed Venerable, Jiang Li, who was originally full of hope, felt that he had suddenly fallen from the peak of the mountain to the bottom, it seemed that there was no hope of reshaping the physical body, without the physical body, what was the difference between it and death.

The Venerable in White was also unwilling, and the soul meter that was most worthy of his trust first made him full of expectations, but now he poured a basin of cold water on him.

"Otherwise, let him try it at the headquarters of the Heavenly Soul Palace, the source soul qi there may be suitable for him!" said to the white-clothed Venerable, he didn't want to give up just like that.

"You save it, Lao Bai! Just our little bit of Taoism, we will make people laugh at it, not to mention that a kid like him who only has one-star soul power, even if one of the miscellaneous disciples inside blows a breath, he can make him disappear. Don't let him die. ”

The only flame of hope was also extinguished by the black-clothed Venerable, he was not alarmist, this is the world of the jungle, all the laws of contract are based on strength, without strength, you can only admit it.

"It seems that now we can only sign the contract first, and as for the magic weapon, let's use my Xuanyan Ring for the time being!" said the white-clothed Venerable, it seemed that he still hadn't given up on Jiang Li.

The black-clothed Venerable no longer paid attention to the two of them and went to cultivate by himself. In his opinion, no matter how Jiang Li cultivated, he couldn't even cultivate soul art without attributes, and no matter how he cultivated, it would be useless.

The white-clothed Venerable folded his hands, closed his eyes, and chanted words in his mouth: "Man is the law of the earth, the earth is the law of the sky, the heaven is the law of the Tao, and the Tao is the natural ......."

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and his handprints suddenly changed, and he sang:

"Boy Jiang Li, the past life and this life are dust, are you willing to respect the way of heaven and the law of nature? Make a contract with the law of heaven, and give you a life full of fighting spirit. But swear that you will never rebel against my lord, or you will be doomed. ”

The white-clothed Venerable continued to ask, "Jiang Li, are you willing to enter into this contract?" ”

Jiang Li looked at the white-clothed Venerable with deep eyes and said, "I am willing." ”

The white-clothed Venerable's handprint changed again, and then, pointing to Jiang Li's eyebrows, a thin red line was printed on it. After doing all this, the white-clothed Venerable took out a ring with flame-like gemstones on it.

"This is the trophy I captured from a soul beast when I was training in the Land of Soul Ruins, and it was made into a ring, named Xuanyan Ring. I've always treasured it, and now I'm giving it to you. You can not only store items, but also accept souls, and you can use it as your magic weapon for the time being! From now on, you will be a disciple of the Huang Ming Hall of the Heavenly Soul Palace. ”

Speaking of this, the white-clothed Venerable paused and continued, "Are you willing to worship me as a teacher and be my disciple. ”

Jiang Li saw that the white-clothed Venerable was earnest, and thought that he might not be able to cultivate, but he was still willing to believe in himself and accept himself as an apprentice.

"I do, Master. Jiang Li said solemnly, and then bowed to the teacher.

The white-clothed Venerable had lived for thousands of years, and finally accepted a disciple, and he was indescribably happy in his heart, and the worries that had arisen before because of Jiang Li's cultivation were also diluted a lot by the joy of accepting disciples, and he pulled Jiang Li to talk to him all night.

Jiang Li has too many things to learn, after all, he has just entered a strange world, and it will definitely take time to get used to it, and the best way is to study.

Fortunately, the difference between this place and the outside world is not too big, but the people here are wearing retro clothes, and the library is full of ancient books, and the words are all ancient characters. It took him half a month to learn the ancient characters, and another half a month to basically grasp the origin and development of the entire soul realm, as well as the current situation. He had heard some things about the soul world from the master and the black-clothed venerable before, but after all, when he first arrived, he had already understood the general situation, and if he wanted to understand it thoroughly, he had to spend some effort, and he went through the information he had learned before.

The soul contract is a contract signed between the soul cultivator and the laws of heaven. Those who unilaterally violate will be punished by ashes, and those who are more serious will be expelled from the eternal heavenly path and will be immortal and immortal, but they will be burned by the flames of yin and yang all day long, and they will not be able to survive and die.

The soul qi is also the source qi necessary for the soul cultivator's cultivation advancement. It is divided into gold soul energy, wood soul energy, water soul energy, fire soul energy, and earth soul energy, and the soul energy without attributes is jokingly called waste soul energy. Because soul qi without attributes can't be cultivated at all, in this world of soul cultivation, if you can't cultivate, it's equivalent to a worthless waste. What makes people headache is that Jiang Li is a waste soul qi, a waste in the eyes of many people.

Horcruxes are also magic weapons used by soul cultivators to cultivate. It must be a physical object of its own space, such as a ring, in order to be used as a Horcrux. Ritual weapons are divided into mortal weapons, Taoist weapons, mysterious weapons and artifacts according to the size of the level, and the higher the level, the rarer it is. In the entire soul world, mortal weapons can be seen everywhere, and half of the outstanding disciples of the entire Heavenly Soul Palace use Dao weapons, and mysterious weapons are already rare, as for artifacts, some old monsters in the soul world who have lived for tens of millions of years have seen them, and they almost do not exist. Jiang Li's Xuanyan Ring is a kind of Taoist weapon, which shows the master's preference for him.

Horcruxes are specially used to allow souls who cannot obtain physical bodies to cultivate and shelter, and they must also pass through Horcruxes that belong to their own attributes in order to absorb the soul qi that helps them cultivate. With the blessing of a horcrux with the same attributes as itself, the soul can touch things like a normal person, otherwise, it is a virtual soul that cannot be seen or touched. It's a pity that Jiang Li hasn't found a Horcrux that is completely suitable for him now, so he can only use the Xuanyan Ring temporarily, and the Xuanyan Ring is only effective for the cultivation of fire-type soul qi cultivators.

In addition, in the soul realm, there are currently four major plates recorded in ancient books, and Jiang Li is now in the Huang Ming Hall under the Heavenly Soul Palace, and the status of the disciples of the Huang Ming Palace is very low, because the Huang Ming Hall is the worst in the four major halls of the Heavenly Soul Palace, and every time the disciples of the Huang Ming Hall are in the big competition, they will show their foreign appearance. The Heavenly Soul Palace allocates resources according to the contributions made by each branch hall and the potential of the disciples, and all along, the cultivation resources that Huang Ming Hall can get are the least. As a result, this is a polarization of the strong and the weak.

Jiang Li also knew in the book that in addition to these four major plates, there are some small forces distributed in various places, which may be too inconspicuous, and the master is too lazy to mention it.
