Chapter 60: Master-Apprentice Relationship

The reason why a person is alive, if Lin Qian is allowed to explain, is the result of the combination of various organic macromolecules such as DNA and proteins in a specific way. But in this world, there are two fundamental human beings living - the soul and the body. A body without a soul is a corpse, and a soul without a body is just a ghost.

Despite the help of magic, it is difficult for humans to escape the laws of nature, birth, old age, and death - most diseases can still be cured by magic. A person like an old fox who has extended his lifespan by snatching up can only keep looking for a new host, that is, the flesh. If there is no body for him to take away, the mere state of the soul will soon dissipate. Therefore, the way of sustaining life of puppet magic is actually a loophole in the law.

To take away a person is to destroy the soul of the other person, and then take the place of the soul of the other person to occupy this body. But the human soul is where it is the most powerful, the soul enables them to learn magic, to use their brains to think, and to firmly occupy the position of the first creature on the continent.

An important criterion for the improvement of magic cultivation is mental power. What is spiritual power? To put it bluntly, it is the power of the soul. The gap in soul power between an ordinary person and a magician is huge. This is also why puppet magic can only be cultivated by a person who has achieved great magic, because it involves a hard indicator - the strength of soul power.

If you want to turn a person into your own puppet, you need to put a part of your soul consciousness into the other person's mind to interfere with or control the other person's words and deeds. And to possess the other person, it is necessary to divide the soul and attach a part of it to the other person's mind. Without the strength of the Great Achiever, the soul will dissipate as soon as it is divided. The old fox originally distributed a part of his soul into Lin Qian's body, and when the original part died, this part naturally occupied a dominant position.

In the same way, the same is true of the illusion spell of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers, each illusion is actually a trace of soul consciousness with a void body, which is also similar to soul division. As for Lipsus's spatial magic, it is the soul and body entering the spatial gap at the same time, and then breaking another opening to come out of it, achieving the purpose of instantaneous displacement. When the body enters the spatial gap, it will be directly wiped out, and only the soul is strong enough to wrap the entire body intact and teleport.

The three ancient magics are actually some variant magic that uses the power of the soul. With the strength of the Dacheng stage, soul cultivation has actually entered a bottleneck, and only by constantly challenging these methods such as soul division, soul seizure, soul body protection, etc., can the soul be further strengthened.

During the period when the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers was recuperating from his injuries, he relied on the previous battle to realize himself, and he roughly figured out the entire magic routine, which was worthy of being the genius of the year.

"Boy, hurry up and practice your magic, I can't help you much with this. But if you ask me if you don't understand something, I can talk about my own experience. "The strong are more or less arrogant, so his bragging skills may be innate.

"Don't worry, teacher, even if it's for my own survival, I'll step up my time to practice. Lin Qian admired this teacher so much, no wonder he would be said by Raymond to be an extremely "insidious" person.

"Well, that's the best, old man, I've been in Dragon Valley for a long time, and I'm a little bored, so I'll go out for a walk first. The old man stood up and was about to leave.

"Teacher," Lin Qian still had one more question to ask, otherwise he would always have a question in his heart, "Why did you choose me in the first place?"

This is a question that Lin Qian has always been puzzled about, it stands to reason that Neuer, who was with Lin Qian, performed more eye-catching, and won the praise of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers, but in the end he was chosen - an "alien" with a mysterious identity.

When the old man heard this, he laughed and said, "The old man likes your ability to fool people the most!"

Lin Qian was stupid, obviously he didn't do anything.

"Look, you believe everything you say, who won't believe you?" The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King walked out with a smile, leaving Lin Qian with a bewildered expression.

"Did I really deceive anyone?" Lin Qian carefully recalled the original scene, and only then did he understand the old man's cleverness.

At that time, the three masters all asked Lin Qian to read the last string of numbers in the magic book, to be honest, Lin Qian really didn't know what to do. But if you don't give an explanation, I'm afraid you won't be able to pass the test, so Lin Qian was in a hurry and insisted that it was the book number behind each book, which deceived everyone else.

Moreover, at that time, Lin Qian's performance was extremely realistic, first reading a book, which was actually an ordinary number - because Neuer would prove it for him, and then after reading the second book, he showed that he had already found a pattern and asked to read the third book.

The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King was still curious, thinking that he had really made a discovery, so he gave him the book directly in excitement, but he didn't expect Lin Qian to say something that seemed ridiculous but couldn't be confirmed. What's even more convincing is that Lin Qian's explanation points to the fact that there are many such magic books, which makes people greedy again.

The old man thought that instead of choosing Neuer, who was extremely talented in magic but did not know the true temperament, it would be better to give this performer who was quick to make sense, and who was good at using what others knew and did not know to make "reasonable" explanations. Because in this world, people with brains tend to survive more easily.

Perhaps, this is the fate of the master and apprentice. Now that the master and apprentice are reunited, Lin Qian is happy in his heart, and immediately forgets all about the previous things, and arranges for his subordinates to book a private room in Fulai Restaurant and prepare the best table of meals to celebrate.

Here, the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers walked out of the Magic Guild and immediately went straight to the corner of the street, he vaguely felt that there was a special person standing there, who seemed to be staring at him. There are very few pedestrians here, and at a glance on the corner you can see that there is indeed no one standing there, but the old man believes in his feelings and cannot be wrong.

"Don't hide your head and tail, the old man is going to make a move!" "The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King didn't see the other party's movement, and directly threatened.

"Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King, it's really a good method!" an old voice sounded on the corner of the street, and then an old man with a cane in his hand and a hunched body slowly appeared.

"Do you know me, who are you?" The name of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers was still very loud a few decades ago, and now the people who know him are either old or strong, and they are all famous people.

"I don't know each other, I've heard that Nanyang didn't know much about the mainland at that time, but it has been rumored that the two masters of the continent are ......," Potlime said slowly, answering the question of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers.

"Are you looking for me?" The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King couldn't stand the other party's roundabouts, and went straight to the topic.

"I want to fight. The corners of Potlem's mouth lifted slightly, and for the first time in a long time, he smiled.

"Can you walk?" the Phantom King asked defiantly, looking at his half-dead appearance. If you fight, then you will fight, but on this street, you can't start fighting directly, and if you want to fight, you have to find a remote place.

Knowing what the other party meant, Potlime smiled and said, "The speed at which the old man walks is indeed slower than the speed at which His Excellency can run. ”

Although the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers was strong back then, he was always around and running for his life when he was besieged by imperial magicians, and he never faced the enemy head-on, so he was also despised by many people. The Ten Thousand Soldiers Phantom King frowned, the other party was obviously sarcastic that he had good escape skills, and he must know a lot about him.

"It's better to be alive than anything else, but there are always people who don't know how to live or die. "The Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers is not going to lose to anyone, including when it comes to confronting his old friend and old rival Lipsus.

"There is a forest ten miles south of the city, and the old decay will go first. After saying that, Potlime disappeared and disappeared.

"You first? Not necessarily. The Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers would not be willing to lose to him in speed, and suddenly disappeared.

This scene happened to be seen by the subordinates sent by Lin Qian, and they hurriedly went back to report to Lin Qian.

"Very old man, on crutches? That's Potlem. Lin Qian probably guessed what was going on, and hurriedly gathered the team of magicians, and at the same time sent someone to tell Elena to bring some royal magicians to help.

What kind of heads-up and honor battle, Lin Qiancai doesn't care, the only thing he cares about is the safety of the teacher. The old man of Potlem is unfathomable, and even the old fox does not dare to say that he can easily say that he can win in battle, and the strength of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers is really not reassuring.

It didn't take long for Elena to come in person, although she left in anger in the morning, but it didn't take long for her anger to disappear, and when she heard Lin Qian's urgent call, she also knew that it was a big deal, so she came in a hurry.

"Let's take a look at what's going on outside the city, Elena, you send someone to check around, and send a signal as soon as you find it. Lin Qian didn't care about his identity, so he gave orders directly.

Elena accepted without any hesitation, and obediently arranged for her subordinates to carry it out, and after a while, information came that there was a situation in the woods south of the city.

"So, Elena, I'll fly over with a team of magicians to see what is going on, and you take the rest of the magicians around you to make a detour and set up an ambush around them. If the teacher is fine, if something happens, we will fight with him. Lin Qian made up his mind to ensure the safety of his teachers.

Just as he was about to leave, another bombshell news came - Charles died, in his bedroom at home, no matter how much the servant shouted in the morning, no one opened the door, and then the butler broke into the door and found out.

"I said that I would try my best to keep Charles safe...... Lin Qian felt a little guilty, although this Potlem was kind-faced, he didn't care at all when he did things, and his heart was no less ruthless than Lipsus.

Charles, who is in the mature stage, although he has only just entered the mature stage, died without even a single movement to resist, which also proves the horror of Popelem's strength, and it is really uncomfortable not to get rid of him.

Lin Qian estimated that Poolem's next target after killing Charles was himself, maybe he sensed the existence of the Phantom King of Ten Thousand Soldiers, and knew that he couldn't kill himself without defeating him, so he took the initiative to come to the door. He is so lawless, is he really not afraid that the empire will send troops to attack Nanyang? Does he really care about the life or death of the people of Nanyang?
