Each incarnation is independent of each other. When it is born, it is no different from a mortal, but it can become stronger through practice, and its skills are not limited by the original body.
In an emergency, the weak incarnation can communicate with the real body through secret methods, thereby borrowing powerful power.
It is worth noting that although the avatar can use this to possess the combat power of the original body, it is still burning itself in exchange for power. Therefore, the weaker the avatar's strength, the shorter the duration of the borrowed strength.
Moreover, the consequences of using the secret method are quite serious and will lead to the death of the external incarnation, so it can only be used as an emergency measure.
"It seems like it's coming." Lu Zhongmo thought.
In his opinion, external incarnation is similar to the clone technique, but it avoids the shortcomings of the clone's weak combat power and low growth limit. The price is that training is expensive, incarnations are too difficult to replicate, and they become consumables in times of crisis.
As he continued to read, Lu Zhong's breath suddenly suffocated.
If you want to become stronger, you can choose to fuse various incarnations to achieve the effect of improving your cultivation.
If this description is true, then the growth rate of his cultivation will no longer be as slow as it is now, and will double its growth compared to before. This is a milestone for a monk with four spiritual roots.
In this way, not only Yuanying has hope.
Even the transformation of gods that was originally out of reach can be seen at a glance!
Suppressing his excitement, he continued reading.
"The external incarnation has so many benefits, what's the price?" Lu Zhong didn't believe that such a heaven-defying magical power would have no price at all.
This is mentioned emphatically in the magical power.
After you become an external avatar, you can't just sit back and relax. The external incarnation formed by the split soul is closely connected with the original body, and through this connection, it can even be traced back to the original body.
Therefore, once the avatar falls into the hands of the enemy, it will have unpredictable consequences.
"So, I need to pay more attention to every move of the avatar, and if something goes wrong, I must immediately cut off all contact." Lu Zhong thought to himself.
I have to say, this is a huge shortcoming.
But there are gains and there are losses.
If you want the many benefits of incarnation, you have to accept the possible consequences.
But overall, the advantages still outweigh the disadvantages.
nothing to say.
practice!
Opening the Scroll of Heaven, Lu Zhong discovered that if he wanted to separate his soul, he had to gather a necessary material - the soul. This thing is the essence of the soul, which exists in the soul of all spirits in the world and is necessary to form the soul.
Not only is it necessary to separate the soul, but a large amount of soul is also required when constructing the body of the incarnation later.
After reading it carefully, the method to obtain the soul is the soul forging technique.
The soul forging technique is extremely painful during the execution, but it has a very slight effect of enhancing spiritual consciousness. The process will produce a few soul fragments, which can be fused into the required soul in a few times.
"It seems that I, the ancestor of the Bihai Sect, can give my disciples another benefit." Lu Zhong decided to list this technique as a secret technique that must be practiced by the disciples when he returns to the Bihai Sect.
In return, it is reasonable for the disciples to hand over soul fragments in a quantitative manner.
…
Bihai Sect, Chuan Gong Hall.
There are so many people at this moment.
After receiving the urgent order from the leader, all Bihai Sect disciples who have not yet gone out to practice, as well as all the officials in the sect, must go to the Chuan Gong Hall to receive the secret technique.
Inside the Chuan Gong Hall.
Lu Baokui, the head of general affairs, was gathering with two other foundation-building deacons. One of them is sitting cross-legged on the ground, a female nun who looks like a hibiscus flower in full bloom.
At this moment, sweat was pouring from her forehead, her eyes were closed tightly, and her face looked painful.
After a long time, he slowly opened his eyes.
The two people who had been waiting for a long time quickly approached.
"Junior Sister Hua, how is the effect?"
"Yes, the ancestor said that this secret method has the effect of increasing spiritual consciousness."
The one called Junior Sister Hua is the deacon Hua Furong. Although she has three spiritual roots, her understanding is the highest among the three.
So he became a "guinea pig".
After Hua Furong sensed her own changes, a look of fanaticism appeared on her face. She turned to look at the two senior brothers and frowned when she heard the hidden meaning in their words.
"What are the two senior brothers talking about? The soul-forging secret technique given by my ancestor cannot be false. Although the soul-forging process is extremely painful and does not hesitate to be cut into pieces with a thousand knives, this has the effect of strengthening the soul. , but it actually exists. I already feel that my consciousness has increased by half!"
"Hiss!" Lu Baokui took a breath of cold air.
Junior Sister Hua has only been able to increase her spiritual consciousness by half a point after practicing her skills for a long time. If this effect can always be achieved, wouldn't it mean that one year of soul training can increase her spiritual consciousness by nearly two feet?
Ten years is two feet.
One hundred years is twenty feet!
You only need to practice the soul-forging secret technique to obtain a soul that is far superior to the same level.
Next to him, Zhang Daolin was also shocked.
He clearly knows that the difficulty in strengthening the soul lies in the rarity and difficulty of finding spiritual objects and the harshness of practicing the techniques. Now to practice the soul-forging secret technique, you only need to suffer some pain.
As if they had thought of it together, the three people in the palace looked at each other.
They all bowed to Chaosheng Cave in the north.
"Thank you Zu Lu for the gift!"
…
Quiet room.
Ah sneeze!
Lu Zhong was contemplating the incarnation outside his body when he suddenly sneezed.
"What's going on?"
He felt something in his heart and looked toward the Chuan Gong Hall.
Could it be that you are cursing yourself?
It's not impossible.
To complete the soul fragments submitted every month, the pain required is quite a bit, enough to make the disciples curse Lu Zhong for making this decision.
Just scold me.
Lu Zhong didn't care.
As long as it doesn't affect his ability to become an external incarnation.
Read a book, read a book.
When it comes to supernatural powers, the content of the external incarnation is so obscure that it can be described as a compliment. The process of partial soul separation cannot tolerate a single mistake, and the slightest difference will result in failure.
Helpless, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and read on.
In the process, Lu Zhong learned the detailed differences between incarnation and body.
Although the avatar is an independent individual, the main body can take over the avatar at will.
On the contrary, unless the incarnation successfully counterattacks the original body, the above behavior cannot be achieved.
Moreover, when the incarnation is born, if the body does not share its own memories, perceptions and experiences of various realms, then the incarnation will be an ordinary baby with four spiritual roots.
"This is not all a bad thing..." Lu Zhongmo thought.
In fact, he kind of wanted to give it a try and send his avatars to various sects as undercover agents.
Considering my spiritual root qualifications, it might not be easy.
But it is said that the qualification restrictions will change in the Nascent Soul stage. Many classics specifically mention this, but all of them are vague and I don't know if it is true.
Don’t think too much and continue to comprehend.
…
The seventh day of June.
Just after the Lantern Festival, Bihaizong and the Chengde Chamber of Commerce gathered their strength and formed a coalition. And today he officially set off for the Lingyue Territory to join the Heling Sect led by Shui Ni and launch the "War of the Heling Sect" against his former sect members.
According to the news from Shui Ni not long ago, the merger negotiations without bloodshed have failed.
So Lu Zhong had to go on an expedition.
The tide lapped at the stone and splashed with waves.
At the pier, a row of flying boats has already been moored.
At this moment, the coalition forces were boarding the ship in an orderly manner. Unease and panic could be seen on their faces, as well as their desire and hope for victory, but most of them looked calm.
Also boarding the ship were a large number of spiritual objects.
Such as healing elixirs, rejuvenation elixirs, large and small formations, and so on. Bihaizong and Chengde Chamber of Commerce are both wealthy and well-prepared with sufficient time.
At the end of the trestle, you face the boundless blue sea.
Yu Feng'er hugged Lu Zhong tightly and was reluctant to let go for a long time. It took a long time to wipe away the tears from the corners of my eyes, and a thousand words turned into one sentence.
"Husband, I will wait here for your return."
"Yeah." Lu Zhong replied softly.
After the two separated, Lu Zhong boarded the ship.
Then the fleet slowly took off, formed a formation in the air, and flew straight to the west. However, due to the large load capacity, the flight speed is indeed a bit slow.
Departing from Bihai Island, it took one and a half months to arrive at Heling Sect.
…
He Ling Sect.
Master and disciple meet.
"My dear disciple, you are finally here!" When Shui Ni looked away from the sand table and saw Lu Zhong who had just walked into the hall, she couldn't help but shout in surprise.
"Master has a request, can I, the apprentice, not come over?" Lu Zhong sighed and said a little helplessly. Then he looked at Shui Ni a few more times, and he showed a surprised expression:
"With this aura, could it be that Master has broken through the bottleneck and entered the false infant state?"
"I was lucky enough to break through half a month ago. Speaking of which, it's all thanks to my good disciple. If you hadn't solved the knot in my mind as a master, I don't know how long I would have been stuck in the late stage of pill formation." Shui Ni said. She was smiling all over her face, and her beautiful face was even more charming.
Lu Zhong looked at it and his mind was shaken.
But then again, what is Shui Ni’s heart knot?
Well, the resentment of an old maid...
He always felt in his heart that this was it.
Sin, sin, sin!
"Master, why did the negotiation suddenly fail?" Back to the topic, Lu Zhong asked about the situation of Feixing, Xuanyue, and Tuoyang sects. According to his previous prediction, Shui Ni could at least win over one of them, instead of like now In this way, the problem can only be solved by force.
"There was an accident." Shui Ni said calmly.
The jade finger drew lines in the air, bringing out messages one after another.
"Some forces have taken the lead and unified the three sects before us. The condition is that they can replace the Lingyue Sect and become the new Nascent Soul Sect."
In this case, negotiation failure can be said to be inevitable.
"Is it...Changchun Valley?" Lu Zhong guessed.
"Oh, that's right!" Shui Ni sighed.
This was what gave her the most headache.
With the support of Changchun Valley among the three sects, the future of the battle with Hezong was suddenly uncertain.
According to intelligence, Changchun Valley has sent two Danjie elders to assist the three sects, and one of them has the same cultivation level as her in the False Infant Realm, which immediately tipped the balance of power.
From the original three versus three, it became five versus three.
The situation is not favorable for their master and disciple.
Lu Zhong also frowned after reading the information given by Shui Ni. However, there was no thought of withdrawing from the incident. After all, although the current situation was bad, the master and the apprentice were safe.
In fact, there are still two opinions on whether the Hezong War can be fought.
While the two were discussing, a female voice suddenly came from outside the palace.
"Senior Sister Shui, can I come in?"
"Is this person the new pill-forming person?" Lu Zhong sensed the person outside the hall. She exuded the aura of the early stage of pill-forming, and was a little unstable. At a glance, he knew that she had just formed the pill.
"It's her, her name is Chu Yueyun." Shui Ni replied, turning her head to send a message to the outside of the hall: "Yueyun, come in, I will introduce you to someone."
After a while, a female cultivator wearing a moonlight white shirt and a cold face walked into the hall.
"Lv Zhong, my good disciple!" Shui Ni introduced proudly.
When Chu Yueyun heard the words, he sensed Lu Zhong's aura without leaving any trace, and knew that it was the middle stage of pill formation. He couldn't help being shocked, and turned to bow slightly and said a blessing:
"I've met Fellow Daoist Lu."
Lu Zhong held his hand and returned the gift politely.
In this way, the two of them are considered acquainted.
"Yueyun, what do you want from me?" Shui Ni knew Chu Yueyun very well. Seeing the hesitation on the latter's face, he added with a smile: "Master and disciple are not outsiders. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
"Senior sister, the Huayiguan envoy just came to our door, please make your decision!"
Take a look?
Lu Zhong and Shui Ni looked at each other and guessed the messenger's intention.
Shui Ni pondered for a moment and then said to Lu Zhong: "My dear disciple, what do you think? I think it is necessary to meet. Under the current circumstances, if we want to complete the matter of uniting the sect, we can only unite Zong Lian Heng."
"I think it's better to refuse." Lu Zhong sighed.
Compared to the Changchun Valley in front of us, in terms of long-term threats, the Taoist side is actually the bigger one.
Regardless of whether it is called Heling Sect or Zhenling Sect, it is not a Taoist inheritance after all. Even with the support of the Taoist sect, the unification of the Spiritual Realm was temporarily completed, but with the fundamental conflict of interests that cannot be resolved in the future, sooner or later they will have to spit out all their capital and profits.
Unless the family is changed through bone-washing and blood-changing.
But in this case, what is the significance of the existence of Zhenling Sect?
It was precisely because of the arrogance of the Taoist sect that the previous Lingyue Sect had always been at odds with Hua Yiguan.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Shui Ni wanted to hear Lu Zhong's thoughts.
"I don't think we are in a hurry to meet with the envoy, but try to contact the two elders of Changchun Valley!" Lu Zhong said solemnly, and then explained to the two of them in detail: "Changchun Valley has its own responsibility to suppress the expansion of the Taoist sect. , that’s why we support the three sect alliances whose strength is outstanding in the Lingyue Domain. If we can get the recognition of these two people, we may not be able to win over the support of Changchun Valley.”
And what he didn't say was that once Changchun Valley turns to support Shui Ni, the three sect alliances will not be a concern.
"Well, you go out first and let me think about it..." Shui Ni did not reply immediately.
"Yes." Lu Zhong said goodbye.
Turn around and come to the area where Bihai Sect and Chengde Chamber of Commerce are stationed.
In the center of the camp, there is a brightly lit hall.
In the hall, the head of the Bihai Sect, Lu Baokui, and the two deacons, plus the chief steward of the Chengde Chamber of Commerce, Si Huandou, and a group of chamber of commerce stewards, gathered here and waited for a long time.
Lu Zhong walked in and glanced at everyone. It was obvious that everyone was a little nervous.
This is normal, it is related to the sect war, and the intensity of the war is far more than the usual small fights. Theoretically, even he, the ancestor of Pill Formation, is at risk of dying.
Of course, Lu Zhong didn't think that he could stay on the opposite side, and he probably couldn't even keep Shui Ni.
It's just that these foundation-building and qi-refining activities will put your life in danger.
So he summoned these people here just to make benefits.
If you save one or two, you will know where to fish.
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he meets someone he knows, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
