After a pause, Yuan Manqiu said thoughtfully:

"It's no wonder that in the big explosion, we didn't even find a ghost, it stands to reason that among the teachers and students at that time, many of them were high-level masters in the Qi refining period and foundation building period, and the divine souls were very powerful, and they could leave one or two ghosts no matter what."

"According to my speculation, the explosion was so strong that after hundreds of teachers and students fell in an instant, most of the souls disappeared, and only a small number of souls were too strong and turned into virtual spirits."

"At this time, all the spiritual energy in the reactor has leaked out, and the center of the explosion has become a spar warehouse next to it."

"The reactor furnace itself is refined for the purpose of storing spiritual energy, and it is extremely strong, making it the best place to live."

"These ethereals hid in until you found them."

Li Yao said happily:

"Teacher, do you mean that there are still many senior brothers and teachers who exist in another form of life? Even including Professor Mo Xuan? ”

Yuan Manqiu smiled bitterly and said lightly:

"Li Yao, the ethereal body and the ghost are different."

"Although ghosts have lost their physical bodies, they still retain a clear sense of self and memory, know where they came from and where they are going, and can be observed and perceived by us in various ways, and can interact with us."

"Once the ghost enters the metal golem, it is like a person who has used a prosthetic leg all over his body, how is it different from the average disabled person?"

"Therefore, in the entire modern cultivation world, the basic rights of ghosts are recognized, and they are regarded as another form of human beings, a special kind of 'disabled person'."

"But ethereals are different."

"The ethereal body has lost its memory, withered its consciousness, and is unable to think. It's just a fragment of the soul, or even just a reflection of the soul. ”

"To put it bluntly, the ethereal body is a kind of spirit!"

"If you think of a ghost as a bonfire lit in the middle of the night, then the ethereal body is at best a spark bursting out of a bonfire."

"Most of the ethereal spirits exist for a short time, and no matter how strong they are, they lose the blessings of their bodies and souls. It will also be depleted within a few months. ”

"It's already a miracle that these ethereal spirits have been hiding in the reactor for more than a year, and they can still be perceived by you."

"But you also say that they are getting darker and darker, and it won't be long before they dissipate completely!"

"So, don't think of the ethereals as just another form of life, they are just a ray of light from life."

"It's like the relationship between you and your photo, the three-dimensional photograph resembles you. That's not you after all! ”

Li Yao was silent.

Suddenly, I understood why the teacher was so lonely.

He thought he had found Professor Mo Xuan's soul, but in fact he had just found a "photo of the soul".

When the teacher sees things and thinks about people, he is naturally in a melancholy mood.

"What's more, the Ethereal Body is not something that everyone can perceive!"

Yuan Manqiu took a deep breath, his voice trembling a little, "The ethereal spirit body is a special existence that arises from strong attachment, and it is a pure spirit. 99.99% of people are not able to perceive their existence. ”

"Even if you have the same attachment as them. People of the same spirit also need to stay next to the ethereal spirit body for a long time before they can slowly adapt to the spiritual energy fluctuations of the ethereal spirit body and perceive their existence! ”

Li Yao's heart moved, as if he had an understanding.

His fingers slid lightly over the cold shell of the reactor.

There seemed to be a heart-piercing pain in his fingertips. It's like the furnace is burned hot by an indelible spirit!

"Is that why you're so stubborn in this world?"

"You are not willing to let the Xuan Bone Battle Armor sink here, and you want to see the day when it will dominate and shine in all directions!"

"Even if there is no physical body, even if even the soul is annihilated. But your spirit is still burning, shining, waiting, desperately trying to communicate with me, pass on your hard work and experience, and help the Xuan Bone Battle Armor to be reborn! ”

Li Yao completely understood.

The ethereal spirit body is the crystallization of the human spirit and will, and it is an indelible attachment that even death!

And the persistence of the teachers and students of the refining department is the Xuan Bone Battle Armor!

I like to meditate under the statue of the Xuan Bone Battle Armor, and most of my thoughts are about the refining system and the Xuan Bone Battle Armor.

Everyone was "like-minded", and over time, they slowly sensed the fluctuations of the ethereal spirit.

In this, I am afraid that it has something to do with the fact that his brain has been robbed twice.

His brain is the most unique existence in the entire Tianyuan Realm!

And today, he was shocked by the strength of the Tiger King's battle armor, and a strong competitive spirit surged in his heart, and his persistence and hope for the Xuangu Battle Armor soared to the extreme, and on a whim, he dismantled the Xuangu Battle Armor and studied the structure of the reactor Ding.

It was this series of coincidences that allowed him to observe so many ethereal bodies with great clarity!

Even if she was replaced by Yuan Manqiu, who had the same attachment to the Xuan Bone Battle Armor, her cultivation was certainly deeper than Li Yao's, but she did not have the habit of going to the Xuan Bone Battle Armor statue every day to think, and her brain was not like Li Yao, who had been robbed twice and had a strange development, so she couldn't perceive the existence of the ethereal spirit body.

Seeing his expression of sudden realization, Yuan Manqiu said:

"Now you understand, in the cultivation realm, the people who can see the ethereal spirit body are called observers."

"You're the observer of more than a hundred ethereal bodies."

"And according to your description, you can see their form, hear their sighs, and even perceive their refining images, and get their experience inheritance."

"Then your observation is very deep, and you can be regarded as a strong observer."

"Such a strong observer is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and I'm afraid no one can observe them except you."

Li Yao finally understood the whole reason why Yuan Manqiu was so lonely.

Even if it's just the spirit and will, if you can feel it, it's not a comfort.

But the teacher couldn't even perceive the last trace of Professor Mo Xuan's spirit and will, knowing that it was there, but he had to relay it himself.

This kind of taste is really uncomfortable.

Li Yao's fists were slowly clenched, and in the silent park, the bones made a clear explosion sound, like holding two spar bombs in the palm of his hand, and he was squeezed and exploded!

"Teacher, you said that the ethereal body is a ghost that confuses itself and loses its memories in a low-dimensional form, so is there a way-"

Li Yao paused word by word and said seriously, "What about restoring them to a high-dimensional form, regaining their memories, and restoring themselves?" ”

Yuan Manqiu was stunned for a moment, as if he was stabbed by the invisible flames ejected from Li Yao's body, and he couldn't open his eyes, and only after a long time did he say:

"It's hard."

"Whether it is the history of the Star Glory Federation, or the ancient books of the Star Sea Empire that we have mastered, there are thousands of examples of ethereal spirits that have been observed, but most of them have been annihilated within a year after being observed."

"There is less than a 1 in 1,000 chance that the ethereal spirit will regain its memories and self-consciousness and turn back into a ghost."

"According to experts who have studied the Ethereal Body, this is related to both the Ethereal Entity itself and the observer of the Ethereal Body."

"If the ghost wanders in the wild for too long, is disturbed by electromagnetic storms and cosmic radiation, and slowly loses consciousness and memory, then there is no way to recover at all, because those memories and consciousness are completely annihilated."

Li Yao couldn't help but interject:

"Teacher, these ethereal spirit bodies in our refining system should be different, they were transformed into ethereal spirit bodies by the strong spiritual energy tide at the moment of the big bang, and they have been hiding in the reactor since then, which can isolate most of the electromagnetic interference and cosmic radiation."

"It is very likely that their consciousness and memories have not been peeled off, and they are still stored in some special form!"

Yuan Manqiu hesitated, nodded and said:

"There is such a possibility, after the big explosion, all the high-level cultivators in our school immediately launched a search, and not even a single trace of ghost was found, which means that they were etherealized in an instant."

"However, even if their consciousness and memories are still there, it is very difficult to get them back completely, or rather, there is no certain way at all!"

"From past examples, we only know two things."

"First, the communication between the observer and the ethereal body can delay the rate of annihilation of the ethereal body as much as possible."

"Second, inheriting the will of the Ethereal Spirits, fighting under the illumination of their spirits, accomplishing what they strongly desire to do, and resonating with the Ethereal Spirits, you can greatly increase the power of the Ethereal Spirits."

"Even, let them regain their memories and consciousness, and return to a high-dimensional form!"

In the darkness, Li Yao's eyes shone brightly.

He hugged the reactor in his arms tightly, and felt a raging flame ignite between his chest and abdomen, rushing down his throat all the way to the top of his head, breaking through the Heavenly Spirit Cover, and rushing into the sky!

"In other words, as long as the Xuan Bone Battle Armor is successfully refined and becomes the strongest mass-produced crystal armor in the Star Shine Federation, it will be possible for teachers and senior brothers to find themselves?"

Li Yao muttered, "Very good! ”

"When I first arrived at the refining department, it was still a ruin, and I excavated many jade slips of teachers and senior brothers in the ruins, and I learned a lot from them."

"I have always been full of respect for all teachers and brothers, and I am very sorry that I cannot listen to the teachings of teachers with all of you."

"Now, we finally have the opportunity to fight side by side, let the Xuan Bone Battle Armor dominate the world, and defeat all the Tiger King Battle Armor and the like!"

"One day, you will wake up from the abyss of chaos and see with your own eyes the glory and pride of your own creation!"

"Teacher—"

Li Yao's eyes narrowed, and he called up a blank light curtain from the miniature crystal brain, activated the surveying and mapping divine thought, and quickly drew a design drawing, "In the communication with the senior brothers and teachers just now, I suddenly got a new kind of inspiration, maybe I can solve the problem of the reactor furnace!"
