Chapter 159: Nourishing the Soul
"If there is life, how can there be no soul element?" Chen Qinglang asked suspiciously.
This is completely unreasonable.
The soul envoy explained: "Because the life of plants is different from the life of animals, their bodies are weak, and the seven spirits are incomplete, and in this situation where the body is problematic, the soul element cannot be born at all. In the body of plants and trees, there are generally only some soul energy, which makes them show some characteristics that life should have, but in essence, it is very different from life like animals. ”
Chen Qinglang was a little big for a while: "What is the soul qi?"
"When there was no reincarnation division in this world, all the reincarnations of yin souls were done in the state of soul energy. "The law of conservation of energy, which you modern people should all know, is that "energy neither arises nor disappears out of thin air, it only transforms from one form to another, or from one object to another, while the total amount of energy remains the same." 」
…… In modern science, energy can be heat, electricity, mechanical, and chemical, but in our monastic world, energy is not limited to this, including but not limited to the mixed thoughts of human beings, the desires of human hearts, meditation in the human brain, true qi and aura, including the body and soul element, are all a kind of energy. A person's skin is rotten and his soul is scattered, which can only mean that he dissipates between heaven and earth, not that he disappears between heaven and earth. ”
Chen Qinglang's mouth opened wide, he had never heard of this kind of theory.
"Do you mean that after the Yin Soul dissipated, it did not disappear, but transformed into another form in the form of the Yin Spirit, which still exists between heaven and earth?"
Not only did Chen Qinglang feel novel about this theory, but Zhang Peipei also had a feeling of amazement. Now, she finally had the spirit to listen to the Soul Charmer talk about these things that she didn't care about in the first place.
"You're right, whether it's the body or the soul element, it won't disappear for no reason, but will be transformed into another form, existing between heaven and earth. The Soul Envoy continued to tell this theory, "You should all know what becomes when the body disappears. Carbohydrates are nothing more than carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, spoilage bacteria produce putrid gas, hydrogen sulfide and hemoglobin combine into sulfide hemoglobin, and then like this, one after another, and finally become carbon dioxide and water exist in heaven and earth.
…… And the soul will dissipate into spirit and soul. When certain beings appear, these soul qi will be attracted and gathered to form a new soul system. As for the grass and trees, the body is weak and cannot carry enough soul qi, so it cannot form a new soul system, so naturally there is no soul element. ”
Then the question arises, without the soul element, there is no spirit and memory, without these, how can plants and trees become essences?
The reason for this is also simple.
Soul hooker: "Plants and trees become fine, and they need more chance." The main thing is to look at the growth environment, if the growth environment is suitable, such as sufficient spiritual energy, the plant will survive for a long time, and the body will become stronger and stronger, when it is strong to a certain extent, you can absorb and gather more soul qi, form a complete soul-soul-body system, and when the soul of spiritual wisdom slowly becomes as powerful as a person, you will slowly know how to cultivate.
…… Including the animal essence, it is also because the body has sufficient conditions to make the seven spirits more prosperous, the three souls are strong, and the spiritual wisdom is opened, so that they can slowly explore and cultivate. It's the same with people, when they were young, their physique was not healthy, their three souls were not strong, they grew up slowly, their bodies were strong, and their souls of spiritual wisdom were slowly strengthened, so that they could know how to learn and cultivate. Before the reincarnation division was established, the souls of all beings were formed by slowly absorbing and gathering the soul qi. After having the Reincarnation Division, all species that can have the conditions to support the soul will have a specific reincarnation system in the Reincarnation Division, and according to the instructions of the Reincarnation Division, specific souls will be injected in advance. There are also those who can't be taken care of, and they still gather the soul qi by themselves according to the primitive methods of nature. Of course, we don't need to talk about this now, but we are mainly talking about the refinement methods such as plants, trees, soil and stones. ”
"Grass and trees are not only one way to become essence, in addition to gathering their own soul qi and slowly cultivating, there is another way, that is, the soul of a person or animal is attached to it, and then by chance, they embark on the path of cultivation. And countless other dead things in the world also rely on this method to become refined. For example, pipa spirits, mountain spirits, stone monsters, etc. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Qinglang already understood something.
He said, "You mean, let Shiyun's Yin Soul attach to the grass or other dead things, and then start cultivating again?"
The Soul Envoy nodded: "That's it in a nutshell, but it's actually full of uncertainty and quite difficult. ”
Tang Shiyun: "I wish to hear its auspiciousness." ”
"First of all, the Yin Soul is a complete soul element, with its own special attributes, and it is not compatible with all plants, trees, earth and stones, so it is very difficult to attach to these things. The level of difficulty is much higher than buying a lottery ticket and winning five million. If you are lucky enough to find a suitable attachment, then the Yin must stay in the attachment for a long time before it can truly become one with the attachment and become a whole. And this process is also full of uncertainty, because being able to attach to it does not mean that it can be integrated with it. Finally, if the first two conditions are met by luck, then the Yin and the attachment become a whole, and as long as the attachment is damaged, the Yin will also be damaged. Plants and plants are the most fragile, and it is actually quite dangerous for the yin spirits to cling to them. Moreover, once the plants and trees have a complete soul system, they are easy to have a chemical reaction with the electrical energy between heaven and earth, and they are very vulnerable to lightning and lightning attacks, which is even more dangerous. ”
When Chen Qinglang was in his hometown, he often saw that after a rainstorm, some trees would be split in two by lightning, and the old people said that it was because of the possession of a ghost, so it caused a thunderstorm. Now that I think about it, most of them must have been just accidental, but there must be some of them, and they must be really because of the existence of soul elements in them.
It's sad to think about the grass and trees.
“…… And because most of the plants and trees absorb the energy of water and soil, it is difficult for plants to ensure that there are enough nutrients for the soul, and at this time, the plants and trees need to capture animals to absorb more nutrients. But in this process, it is very likely that it will be contaminated with a lot of evil energy, which will affect the spirit of the soul and become an evil demon......"
These words made Chen Qinglang immediately think of the acacia tree spirit grandma in "A Chinese Ghost Story", if Tang Shiyun became like that, it would really be better to live than to die.
Anyway, listening to the soul seducer say so much, it seems to be attached to the grass and trees, which is really unreliable.
"Then let's talk about what's wrong with clinging to artifacts like gold and stones. Chen Qinglang frowned. At this time, he knew that compared to persuading the soul seducer to leave Tang Shiyun, the problem of retaining the soul after the yin soul was the most difficult to go to the blue sky.
Unexpectedly, the next words of the soul hooker made him happy.
"Jin Shi or other dead things, because they have no life and no original physique, can be a good match for the later soul element. ”
Chen Qinglang and Tang Shiyun's eyes lit up, while Zhang Peipei frowned, for her, it was the best choice for her to let this soul seducer take Tang Shiyun's ghost away and reincarnate. And to keep her in the world, no matter what the method, is a very bad way.
"Great, then wouldn't it be nice for me to cling to the golden stone?" Tang Shiyun said excitedly after listening to the words of the soul seducer.
The Soul Charmer asked, "The Golden Stone is a dead thing, and it can't provide energy to the Yin Spirit, what should I do?"
Tang Shiyun's expression was stunned, and she suddenly understood that although Jinshi and the like are easy to adapt, there must be other difficult levels.
Chen Qinglang urged: "How to solve this problem?"
"Do you know how machine spirits are formed?" asked the Soul Charmer.
Chen Qinglang was anxious: "Dude, don't sell it, I'm in a hurry." ”
The Soul Charmer shook his head: "I don't have any patience at all. Then he explained, "The first thing that ordinary cultivators have when they have a good weapon or magic weapon is to place a ban on others from being ......able to use it at will."
Chen Qinglang was stunned for a moment, damn it, Lao Tzu's talisman doesn't seem to have this kind of prohibition yet!
"After the ban is placed, the general thing to do is to raise the instrument. "Soul Hook Envoy said, "Raising a device is like raising a fetus, you have to slowly feed your own energy to the spirit weapon." The spirit weapon absorbs enough energy and slowly absorbs the soul qi to form a unique creature - the machine spirit. And after the Yin Soul is attached to the golden stone, someone needs to keep it like a vessel, like a vessel, for a long time. ”
"How to raise?" Tang Shiyun asked.
Soul Hooker: "There are many ways to raise weapons, and they are always the same, mainly with aura." At the beginning, it is necessary to use the blood full of aura to nourish, the aura itself has a devastating effect on the soul element, and the low-level yin soul cannot be directly absorbed, but after the aura is fused with the blood, it becomes another form of energy, which can be directly used by the yin soul. When the soul grows slowly, it can be directly raised with the aura, and in the end, the machine spirit can cultivate on its own.
…… However, it is an extremely long process from blood cultivation to qi cultivation and then to self-training. Especially in the process from blood cultivation to qi cultivation, even if there is a good soul cultivation method, it will take about two hundred years, but there are not many good soul cultivation methods, and it generally takes at least five hundred years to cross this process...... From qi cultivation to self-training, the process is shorter, but it also takes about two or three hundred years...... After reaching the stage of self-training, the soul cultivator can be liberated, and the machine spirit is no longer a parasite.
…… That is to say, under the condition of having the best magic weapons that can be used to nourish the soul, coupled with the best soul-raising methods, coupled with sufficient spiritual blood, plus sufficient spiritual energy, it is also necessary to raise a yin soul for at least five hundred years or so, before it can be liberated and retreated. If there is no good magic weapon, even if the Yin Soul can cling to it, it will not be able to absorb the energy from the outside world, and it will eventually dissipate. With a good magic weapon, without a good method of soul nourishment, the time for soul nourishment will be so long that people can't stand it, and during this period, once the spiritual blood is not enough to fast, then the yin soul may starve to death at any time, and without sufficient spiritual energy, the yin soul will still starve to death in the later stage of qi cultivation...... So, you know the difficulty. ”
The method is simple, really simple, but the process ......
Tang Shiyun gave up first: "Lord Yinsi, is there any other way?"
Chen Qinglang was silent.
If there are good exercises, blood cultivation for 200 years, qi cultivation for 300 years, and without good exercises, blood cultivation for 500 years, qi cultivation for 300 years, for such a long time, who can persist in it, and who is willing to adhere to it?
Even if you purely use whole grains to feed a person for hundreds of years, no one can stand it, right?
What's more, it is to nourish qi with blood?
And if the blood and qi are not supplied, all the previous efforts will be in vain, and the yin spirit may starve to death at any time.
This soul-raising process is simply too harsh. There is no guarantee, and I don't see any too attractive rewards, it is completely thankless, and it is the best investment.
Zhang Peipei saw that Chen Qinglang was actually pondering there, and he suddenly became angry. She secretly swore in her heart that if Chen Qinglang dared to agree to such a plan, she would break up with him immediately. It's not a threat of anger or anything like that, it's ...... At that time, I will feel that I have a low personality in this relationship, and I can't stand it anymore no matter what.
She has put herself into a very humble situation for Chen Qinglang, and even sometimes has the urge to promise him to let him step on two boats, but if he is willing to put so much effort into raising a vixen ghost, then what is she in his heart? No matter how humble she is, it won't make the slightest sense, right?
At that time, what if you stay with him?
