Ordinary monks dare to condense spiritual patterns on their bodies. Even the top Qi-refining monks cannot exceed eight at most. If there are spiritual patterns for elementary spells, this number will be even lower.
Although the spirit patterns are powerful, allowing monks to have the ability to cast spells instantly, they also place great demands on the physical body. There is no such thing as a monk like Lin Yan who can carve more than ten basic magic spirit patterns in one breath. He may only be able to condense it to the eighth In the Nine Paths, the monk's physical body could no longer support it. Either the whole body was in severe pain or the seven orifices were bleeding, and some of it had to be shaken to maintain it.
Only a warrior like Lin Yan, whose physical body is stronger than the "half-immortal body", can be so willful in condensing more than ten spiritual patterns on his body.
After condensing almost all the basic combat spells into spiritual patterns, Lin Yan suddenly felt that the magic power in his dantian seemed to have a slight jump. This kind of jump was very familiar to Lin Yan, and it was a precursor to a breakthrough.
"The opportunity has finally arrived." Lin Yan was overjoyed. He had cultivated the seventh level of Qi Refining to the extreme before, and was in a state where he could break through at any time but could not. Now that the opportunity for a breakthrough has come, it is the time to break through. .br>
When the opportunity for breakthrough came, Lin Yan was not in a hurry. Instead, he took out a spiritual stone and replenished the mana in his body to its peak state. Then he took out seven or eight spiritual stones, placed them beside him, released the suppression of mana, and began to recite silently " The formula of "Nourishing Qigong" began to make breakthroughs.
Breaking through the seventh level of Qi refining to the eighth level, in addition to the natural growth of mana, it is also necessary to condense the "primordial spirit". From then on, it is equivalent to an extra life. As long as the "primordial spirit" does not die, you can search for Get a suitable body and be reborn.
Lin Yan was running Qigong with all his strength, and the magic power was walking through the Great Zhoutian over and over again in his body. At the same time, he was constantly stirring up his Dantian, condensing the magic power. In the center of the dense magic power in his body, there was a ray of light that seemed particularly bright, like the center of a galaxy, which was everything. Center and roots.
That is the "power of the source", which is the initial "mana" transformed by the spiritual roots. Only when a monk has this trace of "source power" in his body can he refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into "mana" and truly step into the realm of immortality. ranks.
It's just that Lin Yan's root power is somewhat different. Part of it belongs to himself, and part of it belongs to Dugu City. There is even a negligible part that comes from the "spiritual roots" of several warriors he absorbed during his time in the secular world. ".
This also allowed Lin Yan's "root power" to transform from its initial weakness to its current level, greatly increasing Lin Yan's cultivation speed.
Acquired spiritual roots seem to be able to greatly increase the monk's cultivation speed as long as the "power of the root" is increased. However, Lin Yan does not yet know whether there is an upper limit to the improvement of this "power of the root".
The seven spiritual stones in front of Lin Yan were all exuding powerful spiritual energy. They penetrated into Lin Yan's body along with his breathing and were converted into mana. Lin Yan quickly completed the accumulation of mana, and his mana naturally broke through to the eighth level of Qi refining. level, when the mana fluctuations in the body begin to stabilize, there will be a mana of "root power" following the Ren and Du's two meridians, rushing straight to the Tianmen, and finally submerging into the Niwan Palace and entering the sea of consciousness.
Lin Yan's consciousness followed this source of power and entered the sea of consciousness.
Above the boundless sea of consciousness, the soul sealed by the special armor still floats.
This step is what Lin Yan is worried about.
After all, the soul belongs to the same category as the soul. He has already condensed the soul, but it was sealed. I don’t know if he can successfully condense the " soul " in this state. If the soul is condensed, is it the same as the soul? Belonging to one body and two souls, or two completely different powers, will it have some irreversible impact on Lin Yan's consciousness.
This source of power floats above the sea of consciousness. Lin Yan's consciousness condenses into a golden villain, sitting cross-legged in the sea of consciousness, quietly watching the transformation complete. If something irreversible happens, he plans to directly shake the sea of consciousness. Interrupting the transformation, even if you don't condense the soul, you can't let yourself be in a weird "soul separation" state.
He doesn't want to give birth to two consciousnesses, like the "drought demon" sealed in the small world. This state is fine for a short time, but in the long run there will definitely be big problems, and two consciousnesses will form, like new creatures. Born from itself.
When the power of the root disappeared into the sea of consciousness, it rushed towards the soul. It was very fast and directly submerged into the soul. The next moment, the gray armor on the body was emitting a dark light, and there were ancient traces all over it.
The chains were locked, with ancient runes flashing on them.
Lin Yan suddenly discovered that the special runes on the chains might not be eclipse runes, but immortal runes, which were formed after he came to the Immortal Ancient Continent. This may explain why he controlled the runes on the chain, but could not recognize them at all. He could only feel the ancient and mysterious atmosphere, but could not analyze it.
The armor was glowing, and the chains outside were also glowing. Vaguely, some of the skin on those chains and armor seemed to have peeled off, revealing the metallic color underneath.
Lin Yan was shocked. The gray and black substances on the surface of these armors were actually similar to "rust". Now after the "power of the source" submerged into the soul, it was peeled off, and the real chains underneath were gradually revealed.
The areas where the armor and chains were stripped showed a silvery metallic luster, reflecting a special brilliance in the sea of consciousness, with several symbols appearing on them.
Lin Yan then discovered that he seemed to be able to see through the traces of runes after the rust was peeled off. There were about three runes that could be seen clearly, and one only showed half of it. The rest could not be seen clearly because they were "rusted" trace” coverage.
Lin Yan memorized these three runes, and then waited patiently for his soul to change.
Wisps of root power flashed on the surface of the soul, like special spiritual energy that looked like meteors, surrounding the soul. Other than that, Lin Yan did not notice any changes in the soul.
that's all?
There was a trace of astonishment on the face of the golden villain. This was too calm. Could it be that because the soul has been condensed, the soul cannot be formed, and the "power of the root" can only be integrated into the soul?
In other words, the figure in front of me is not only a soul, but also a soul?
Lin Yan couldn't understand. The scene in front of him was beyond his understanding. Everything was an unknown change.
With a thought in Lin Yan's mind, he operated according to the method that Ji Yanran told him about the soul leaving the body. The soul emitted a pale white brilliance, and then the power of the source condensed and fell off from the soul along a thread. It fell down and gradually condensed into a pale statue. The outline of the white villain's face was exactly the same as Lin Yan's, except that it was almost blurry.
What surprised Lin Yan was that the lower body of the white villain was almost the same as a humanoid.
It's not like he has never seen the soul of ordinary monks. The soul of a Qi-refining monk is almost just a hazy white light in the outside world. The soul of a monk in the pneumatic stage is formed into a head, with white light under the chest. The mist on the head is extremely clear, unlike Lin Yan. Except for accidents, it almost has a complete human shape.
"Yes, this is just an empty shell." Lin Yan suddenly understood something. The power of his soul is still in the soul. This root power cannot be completely integrated with the power of the soul to form the soul, but it is contaminated by the soul. The breath barely has the appearance of a soul, but the "power of the soul" as the core is still lacking, there is no "god".
In other words, the "primordial spirit" in front of you, with the name of the primordial spirit, can use most of the methods of the primordial spirit, such as "divine consciousness locking" at the ninth level of Qi refining, "primordial spirit casting" at the tenth level of Qi refining, etc. But the most important methods, such as "the soul leaves the body" and "the soul seizes the body", cannot be used, because these require the soul to become an independent individual, carrying the soul of the monk himself.
In other words, apart from letting the soul leave the physical body, Lin Yan's soul can do everything that other souls can do.
Lin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. The soul could not leave the body. Although it was equivalent to losing a way to save his life, it had no impact on Lin Yan.
Wouldn't it be easy to kill Lin Yan's physical body and destroy Lin Yan's spirit?
If you want to survive, the most important thing is to strengthen your own strength.
Condensing the soul, although it was a little different from others, it also made Lin Yan feel relieved, at least what he worried about did not happen.
His consciousness withdrew from the sea of consciousness, and the mana in his Dantian surged, almost doubling compared to before. The improvement in strength brought about by the eighth level of Qi refining exceeded Lin Yan's imagination.
"Immortal way..." Although the process of condensing the soul this time did not have any major twists and turns, it also made Lin Yan understand one thing.
It was no accident that he came from the Xuanwu Continent to this world called the Immortal Ancient Continent. There must have been an intervention that he couldn't understand, causing him to "die" from the Xuanwu Continent and come to this world, and transfer his "
Soul" is sealed.
This kind of existence can transcend the world and allow Lin Yan to "rebirth". The method is beyond Lin Yan's imagination. Even the "saint" who was born in this world cannot do it.
In other words, if it was as he expected and this person was really responsible, then this person's strength must be a peerless master in the martial arts realm or even above the martial arts realm.
An existence that transcends the ninth level of martial arts!
In the previous life of the Xuanwu Continent, before the great world began, saints who claimed to be immortal were not born. Demigods in the Nirvana realm were already the top powerful people in the world. Such existences were rare. After saints came into the world, there were not many such existences. , as for the masters of the martial arts realm, not a single one appeared.
This kind of existence is even higher than a saint, immortal, and its strength exceeds the imagination of any warrior. Such a master, such a realm, has nine levels.
Rumor has it that in the ninth level of martial arts, the improvement in each level is comparable to the improvement in all the previous realms of cultivation. Of course, the difficulty is still the same.
If it weren't for martial arts masters who had transcended life and death long ago and were immortal, I'm afraid no one would be able to break through to a realm of heaven.
Such a master would never be able to cross the world, not even the ninth level of martial arts.
