Chapter 16: The Three Souls

"The human body has three souls and seven souls, and the three souls are the heavenly soul, the earth soul, and the life soul. But the heavenly soul and the earth soul are not in the human body, but outside the human body. But these two souls resonate and tremble with the human body from time to time, but this kind of resonance is difficult for mortals to feel. The soul of the earth is in hell, under the control of the avenue of life and death, and the avenue of life and death is the way of heaven and earth. The Heavenly Soul is scattered around the world when a person is born, and only the life soul of the three souls has always returned to itself. And cultivating truth is to draw the earth soul and the heavenly soul to the human body, and get rid of the control of heaven and earth, so it is said that cultivation is the way against the sky. Speaking of this, Ling Yun had a faint look of worry in his heart, hesitating, not knowing what he was thinking.

"What does this have to do with spiritual cultivation?" Ling Tian couldn't help but wonder when he saw that his father had said so much, but it had nothing to do with his own spiritual cultivation.

"Don't worry, listen to me, you're really like your mother, haha. Ling Yun was interrupted by Ling Tian, and the worry in his heart was reduced by a few points.

Ling Tian immediately laughed, and even the fox lowered her head shyly.

"Spiritual consciousness is composed of soul and mental power, and if you want to produce spiritual consciousness, you must merge the three souls into one and blend with each other. Ling Yun didn't think much about it and continued.

"Then how can the three souls be one?" Ling Tian couldn't help but ask knowing why he couldn't generate spiritual sense, his expression quite impatient.

"After the cultivator's mental power is strong, the resonance between the human body and the heavenly soul and the earth soul will become clearer and clearer. And there is still a soul in the human body, use the soul to resonate with the two souls of heaven and earth, and then strive to lead the two souls of heaven and earth back to their place. Ling Yun's expression was slightly solemn, and he didn't know why.

"How to traction, I tried it, and it was a faint feeling, especially the Heavenly Soul, and it felt even more like nothing. Ling Tian couldn't wait to start trying, but it didn't work much.

"You, you, how many times have you said it, don't be so impatient, I don't know if "non-tranquility is not far", and Xiuzhen is even more impatient, my previous exercise on you seems to have been thrown out of the clouds. Ling Yun was slightly angry, hating iron for not becoming steel, and couldn't help but reprimand.

"What my father taught me was that Tian'er knew that he was wrong. Ling Tian rarely saw his father angry, and he was a little frightened and overwhelmed, and hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Ling Yun's face paleated slightly, paused for a moment, and said, "I will teach you some seal techniques in a while, and after serious cultivation, you will be able to increase the resonance with the soul of heaven and earth." โ€

"Well, I see, father. Ling Tian didn't dare to be impatient this time, and waited for his father to pause for a moment before replying.

"As for your Heavenly Soul feeling weak, this ......" Ling Yun's expression looked a little irritated, and he looked at the sky, not knowing what to say. He knew that Ling Tian was from the Immortal Realm, the Heavenly Soul was naturally in the Immortal Realm, and Ling Tian was now in the Cultivation Realm, which was much more difficult than being born in the Cultivation Realm and feeling the Heavenly Soul, Ling Tian could feel the Heavenly Soul slightly, which was already a miracle.

"Oh. Ling Tian looked at the sky, and then at his father's expression. He was born in the fairy world, how could he not know what the problem was, he couldn't help but feel a little gloomy when he thought of this.

"It's okay, cultivate slowly, the feeling will definitely get stronger and stronger, and maybe it will be a matter of course when the time comes. As if seeing Ling Tian's gloom, Ling Yun felt a little unbearable in his heart, he had also deduced why this child was in the lower realm, thinking that this was also a hard-working child, thinking of this, he hurriedly comforted Ling Tianlai.

"Well, yes, father, hee-hee. How could Ling Tian not know that his father was comforting him, but he didn't want his father to worry about him, so he had to force a laugh.

Ling Yun has also lived for hundreds of thousands of years, the so-called old man, how could he not see Ling Tian's immature disguise, his heart ached slightly, and he suddenly said loudly: "You cultivate first, it's really not good, I'll set up a "Qiankun Soul Attracting Array", this kind of anti-heaven formation is useful." โ€

"Well, yes, father. Ling Tian was very grateful in his heart, with his father's cultivation knowledge, he could say that he was against the sky, thinking that this formation was extraordinary, but the side effects must be not small.

"Alright, let's teach you some seals to strengthen the two souls. As he spoke, he taught Ling Tian that there weren't many sets of seals, and Ling Tian quickly learned them.

"Father, did you say that people will not die after the earth soul returns to the body, didn't you say that the earth soul is in hell, it is under the control of the avenue of life and death, and after the earth soul returns to the body, I think that people will not die. After Ling Tian learned the seal technique, he suddenly remembered what his father had just said about the fate of heaven and earth.

"Heaven and earth are not kind, how can they be so affectionate. Ling Yun's expression was full of disdain and resentment, and seeing that Ling Tian was confused, he said: "The three souls have returned and formed a spiritual consciousness, but the two souls of heaven and earth will still leave traces in heaven and earth, so the earth soul has not really left the avenue of life and death, and will still be dragged away by hell." There are many other factors here, and you don't need to know them now, you will know them later. โ€

"Sure enough, there is no such cheap thing in the world, so what about the life soul? The life soul was in the body from the beginning, I'm afraid it's the only thing we can control. Ling Tian asked again.

"Control? hehe, how can it be so simple. Life and soul have a lot of influences, people have lives, and there will naturally be luck after life, that is, fate. And the ethereal things like fate and understanding seem to be related to the soul of life. When Ling Yun said this, he sighed leisurely, and then said: "Although the soul is in his own body, he is controlled by the fate of heaven and earth, you think, how sad it is for his fate to be in the hands of heaven and earth." Alas, those who obey the mandate of heaven are sad, and those who obey the mandate of heaven die!

"Those who obey the mandate of heaven are sad, and those who obey the mandate of heaven die? It seems that cultivating truth is disobeying the heavens. Ling Tian couldn't help but mutter, repeating his father's words.

"And if the soul is damaged, at least the soul will be greatly damaged, and you will become an idiot of the walking dead, and at the worst, the soul will be scattered and your life will be lost. Ling Yun said again, his tone full of emotion.

"Cultivating the truth is dangerous, but in the end, you can only face the difficulties, otherwise your life will be even more sad in the control of others. Seeing that Ling Tian was pondering, Ling Yun didn't want him to retreat because of this, so he said again.

"Father, I understand, since I have chosen the path of cultivation, I should rise to the rapids, and strive to one day control my own destiny, despising this merciless world. Ling Tian's expression was firm, and he looked at the world.

"Hehe, this is my good boy, a good man should have the courage to break through the sky with a sword. Go and rest, you are cultivating, even if you can't do it, you are not afraid. I'll prepare some things for you during this time, but don't use the "Qiankun Soul Attracting Array" as a last resort. Ling Yun was very relieved and instructed Ling Tiandao.

Ling Tian originally wanted to ask his father about the names and functions of the seven spirits in the Three Souls and Seven Spirits, but he knew that he couldn't be too ambitious, so he had to say goodbye to his father and mother and go back to rest.

In the dream, Ling Tian dreamed that he had a very high cultivation, and took Hua Min'er and his father and mother to the fairy world, and beat those eight gods with a sword, and he smashed his head with something in pride, and the dream broke when he was groggy, but he didn't wake up, and continued to fall asleep.

The next day, Ling Tian went out with a big bag on his head, he gently stroked the big bag, and his face was full of wry smiles, thinking that he was too dreaming to sรจ hit his head.

He didn't go to see Ling Yun and his wife, he went straight to Qingying Peak, and began to cultivate after thinking about the lovely man in his dream a few times in his mind.

There weren't many handprints that Ling Yun had taught him, and Ling Tian pinched the seal technique, and it was completed in a few changes. Suddenly, Ling Tian felt a life-like beating in his mind become active, gradually getting stronger and stronger.

"Thinking about it, this is the soul of life, I don't know if the soul of heaven and earth can feel so strong. As soon as Ling Tian's heart moved, he knew that it was his father's so-called life soul.

He felt the breath of life in his soul, and a feeling of trembling came out of his heart. Maybe this is the reverence for life, Ling Tian thought to himself. After feeling it carefully for a while, he tried to control the soul to resonate with the two souls of heaven and earth.

Gradually, he felt two similar life-like soul beats. One is very obvious, but there is a mystical taste of life and death intertwined, and the other is very weak, if there is nothing.

"That life and death are intertwined with the earth soul in hell, which feels obvious, and it is estimated that a little force can return him to his body. Ling Tian was overjoyed in his heart, and his handprints changed again, and that feeling became even stronger.

"Buzz!"

Suddenly, a strong soul power came from the place where he felt just now, the speed became faster and faster, and gradually there was a whistling momentum, and in the blink of an eye, it was shrouded in the sky above Ling Tian's head, and the sea of fog around Ling Tian seemed to solidify, becoming a vacuum, and that soul power circled for a moment and came towards Ling Tian.

"Hmm!" Ling Tian let out a comfortable groan, and suddenly felt a lot clearer in his mind. A soul-like beating entered his mind, and he began to intertwine with his soul.

"It's so comfortable, I suddenly feel that this world is much clearer, it should be the return of the earth soul and the gathering of the life soul. Ling Tian's heart was ecstatic, his mind was greatly increased, and he even felt that the objects were different, and they were very clear.

"I don't know if the two souls together will be able to lead the heavenly souls back after the souls of the earth are completely fused. Ling Tian's heart moved, and he suddenly had this thought. As he spoke, he controlled the fusion of the two souls, and now he clearly felt the beating of the heavenly souls, and the feeling became clearer and clearer.

Next, Ling Tian was controlling the fusion of the two souls. The two beats of life resonate with each other, merge with each other, and gradually have a tendency to merge into one, and the two beats are gradually moving closer to one, although slowly, but indeed closer.

"At this rate, it is estimated that it will take as little as ten days and more than a month, and the two souls will be completely fused. As the moon rose and sunset, Ling Tian finished today's cultivation and muttered with a feeling.

Back at Qingyou Peak, Ling Tian told Ling Yun about the idea of merging the two souls to attract heavenly souls, and Ling Yun was shocked. It's no wonder he's like that. Everyone else has dragged the two souls of heaven and earth back to their bodies at the same time, so I've seen such a thing.

"I guess it should be feasible, haha, how do you feel now, can you feel the heavenly soul?" Ling Yun was ecstatic and hurriedly asked.

"Well, I can feel it very clearly, although I can't pull it back yet. However, my life soul and earth soul have not yet been completely fused, and it is estimated that there will be some changes after the complete fusion. Ling Tian was also a little overjoyed, but he could barely control it, and patiently told his father about his feelings.

"Okay, okay, you continue to cultivate, and we'll see after a while. Ling Yun began to be a little incoherent, if this matter could be solved, the big stone in his heart could be put down.

"Well, I know, father, then I'll go back and continue my cultivation. Ling Tian said goodbye to his father and went back to the bedroom to continue fusing the two souls. The fusion of these two souls can also be automatically fused during sleep, but at a slower speed.
