Under the cool and comfortable shade of the tree, Ning Xiaotian took out the small bench from his soul guide and sat down. He formed a half circle with Dugu Bo, Sword Douluo, Ah Rou and the silly dog squatting on the ground. Outside the shade of the tree, there was a figure The huge Ming Dynasty and the Second Ming Dynasty.
Seeing everyone gathered, Ning Xiaotian turned to look at Ah Rou and went straight to the point, "Aunt Rou, I heard that your soul beast clan can integrate the soul into the soul master's soul ring if you perform soul sacrifice. Is this possible? ?”
Ah Rou nodded and replied simply, "Not bad."
After receiving the confirmation, Ning Xiaotian looked around at everyone, "Is it possible that the method of soul sacrifice can be transformed into some kind of equal contract with the soul master? The soul beast can independently choose to be with a soul that matches its own attributes. The soul master signs a contract and sacrifices to become his soul ring, while the soul retains its consciousness and integrates into the soul ring, coexisting harmoniously with the soul master, fighting together, and growing together."
"I call this kind of soul beast soul transformed in the form of a contract a soul." Ning Xiaotian looked at Ah Rou again, "In my imagination, after the soul master dies, the soul can escape from the soul ring and form a special form. The method continues to exist in heaven and earth, and you can even practice independently and improve your cultivation."
"Aunt Rou, I remember you said that after the soul beast reshapes, it needs to be in contact with humans and feel the breath of humans before it can get closer. To be honest, I don't know what the principle is. But if the soul beast can Staying with humans in the form of contracted souls, fighting together, and experiencing human birth, old age, illness and death, I think it will also be beneficial to future cultivation."
"From a certain perspective, the soul can be said to be another way of survival and cultivation for the soul beast."
"Contracted soul." Everyone couldn't help but start to think about the operability and possible consequences described by Ning Xiaotian.
"But once a soul beast loses its body, is it still a soul beast?" Daming's deep voice suddenly came.
"That's better than being struck to death by lightning. If you can really continue to practice by turning into a soul, it is indeed an option." Ah Rou raised her head and sighed.
Daming suddenly fell silent.
"However, Master Tian, no matter how powerful the soul is, it will dissipate quickly once it leaves the body. I'm afraid it's not easy to survive in the world forever, let alone continue to practice." Ah Rou looked at Ning Xiaotian with confusion. .
"What if you have a replacement body?" Ning Xiaotian touched his chin, "For example, the elements of heaven and earth. As far as I know, in the far north, there is a race of soul beasts called Ice Sky Snow Girl, which is composed of pure It is conceived by the condensation of ice-attributed heaven and earth elements. Since the race of Ice Sky and Snow Girl can condense the body with ice-attributed heaven and earth elements to exist in the world forever, and can also practice independently. Then can the souls of other soul beasts also be able to use various kinds of things in the world? How about condensing the elements into the physical body and absorbing the elements of heaven and earth for cultivation?"
"Is this really possible?"
Ah Rou's eyes suddenly lit up. If it could really be realized, the essence of the soul would still be a soul beast, but the body would be replaced by the elements of heaven and earth instead of flesh and blood. Isn't the Ice and Snow Girl also a kind of soul beast?
"Since there are soul beasts like Ice Sky and Snow Girl in the world, this idea should be theoretically possible." Ning Xiaotian nodded slightly, "The biggest difficulty with this method is where to find a place filled with all kinds of worlds. The place of the elements. After all, each soul beast has its own unique attributes. If you want to condense the elemental body, you must have the corresponding heaven and earth energy around it."
"Not only that, soul masters will not die in the same place forever, which means that the souls who have escaped from the soul ring must be brought there through special methods. In addition, this place must be large enough to accommodate many souls. Moreover, this place must also It must have the function of stabilizing the soul, otherwise the body of the soul will dissipate before it can be condensed to the extent that it can be used as a carrier." Sword Douluo spoke concisely and pointed out the difficult problems that he had thought of.
Then he turned to look at Ning Xiaotian, "Xiaotian, have you come up with a solution to this?"
As for whether the souls would burst, he said nothing. Natural selection and survival of the fittest are the unchanging laws of the world. He had a premonition that even if the existence of souls really appeared, they would kill each other and devour each other internally. The quantity can never grow without limit, because this goes against the natural principles of heaven and earth.
"Sounds like creating a new world!" Dugu Bo's eyes widened, not realizing it.
Ah Rou's eyes were bright and her face was full of hope.
"Yes, it is indeed creating a new world, or a special space." Ning Xiaotian nodded, then looked up at the sky and murmured: "Years ago, when I knew that there were gods and the existence of the divine realm in this world. , I was just thinking, where is the God Realm?"
"I was once carried by Erlong to fly high in the sky for several days. During that time, I looked at the horizon in the distance and found that the earth was actually arc-shaped. I was thinking at that time, if I could keep flying like this, the earth would always be like this. It’s also arc-shaped, what will be the result?”
"I kept simulating it in my mind and finally came to the conclusion that the earth beneath our feet should be spherical."
"This is true." Ah Rou suddenly interrupted, "Our ancestors of the flying soul beasts of the soul beast clan have already confirmed it."
Hearing this, Ning Xiaotian continued: "So, when I looked up at the stars, I was guessing whether the earth we live in is a spherical star like the moon and many stars in the sky, a star in the endless starry sky. Members, I call them planets."
"If that's the case, then is the God Realm one of the planets? I heard that a soul master who breaks through level 100 can become a god and fly to the God Realm. But the starry sky is vast, how do gods reach the God Realm? So I made another guess. , God Realm may be a special space connected with the planet."
"So, you thought of building a special space like the God Realm, filling it with various elements of heaven and earth to guide and accommodate souls. At the same time, it connects our planet so that soul masters who have broken through the realm can come from this space. To attract souls and turn them into soul rings?" Dugu Bo opened his mouth and murmured: "This is really a great idea, but it is probably more difficult than becoming a god, right?"
"Maybe." Ning Xiaotian smiled, "I call this world the soul world."
"Soul Realm!" Everyone was chewing on this word, and their hearts were filled with shock. Ning Xiaotian's idea was so wild that they couldn't even think about it.
Ning Xiaotian turned around and looked around at everyone, "Also, is the God Realm really just the God Realm of our planet?"
"I don't think so. As far as I know, the angel gods believed in by Wuhun Temple become gods through faith. The so-called faith is to unite the power of all living beings. What a great feat is that? If all the gods in the divine world are in our If the planet becomes a god based on faith, then how could there be no relevant records on the mainland for so many years. So I guess that the God Realm must also be in charge of other planets."
"In addition, since God can achieve success by absorbing the faith of living beings, it means that the more planets and believers the God Realm controls, the more benefits it can obtain. So I guess that if the God Realm wants to develop and grow, it should be controlled by its subordinates. The planet is related to the number of creatures.”
"Master Tian, what does this have to do with building the soul world?" Ah Rou couldn't help but ask.
Ning Xiaotian smiled and said: "Aunt Rou, do you think there are so many stars in the sky, and each one can support life?"
"This should be impossible." Ah Rou pondered for a moment and shook her head, "If every planet could support life, I'm afraid we hundred thousand year soul beasts would have seen creatures from other planets come to our planet. "
Fortunately, you don't understand astronomy, otherwise I would have to explain what light years are. The planets are not as close as you think... Ning Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, "So, there must be many ways for the planets to develop life. Harsh conditions, such as the sun. Without the sunshine on the planet, the earth will fall into darkness and plants will not be able to grow. This is what we can see with our own eyes."
"In addition, how were soul beasts and humans born? Why can the relevant records on the mainland only date back ten thousand years? What about millions of years ago? Tens of millions of years ago? I believe that the planet must evolve into a suitable place for life. The state of residence will definitely take countless years."
"And this is the function of the soul." Ning Xiaotian smiled and nodded slightly, saying seriously.
"What's the purpose?" Ah Rou asked impatiently.
"Transform!" Ning Xiaotian said seriously: "Isn't it because all things on our planet can develop so vigorously because of the existence of the elements of heaven and earth? Land, water flow, and fire are not manifestations of the elements of heaven and earth."
"If souls can build their bodies out of elements, they will be the most natural existences in the world. They can use their elemental bodies to smooth the earth, contain the flames, calm the floods, and allow suitable planets to evolve more quickly into capable planets that can support life. The state of existence.”
"Then our soul beast clan is working for the God Realm, isn't it?" The Titan Giant Ape's voice was a little unhappy. The soul spent countless years transforming the planet. According to Ning Xiaotian, it will eventually be classified under the control of the God Realm. It feels like a loss. .
We obviously built the house, but we don’t own it.
"Superficial!" Dugu Bo raised his head and gave it a caring look, "Can the transformation of the planet be completed in a day or two? And even if the transformation is successful, will other creatures be able to live in it in a while? There are millions of years ahead. There, that planet can only be inhabited by your souls and powerful soul beasts. Wouldn’t it be courting death for weak creatures to live there?”
"Furthermore, even if other creatures can live in it, you souls who helped transform the planet are the great contributors. If anything goes wrong in the future, it won't depend on you? The new beings born on those planets must not treat you as their ancestors?"
You rough guy is so ignorant that you don’t know how to appear holy in front of others. Please worship me as your big brother. I will write a book for you one day. Dugudu nodded slightly and taught on the spot, "If I were a soul, I would come out and do good deeds when I have nothing to do. , I will go wherever there is an earthquake or a fire. Afterwards, someone may build a statue for me, call me a holy beast, and worship me day and night. Didn’t Xiaotian say that faith can help people become gods? Don’t beasts do that? So No one is grabbing this good opportunity, yet you still reject it!"
Being able to become a god, it seems that it is not a bad thing to say that the Titan ape suddenly stopped talking.
"This is also a possibility for the soul beast that I mentioned before to become a god. I call this soul that uses the elements of heaven and earth as its body an elemental god. Its duty is to maintain the natural order of the planet." Ning Xiaotian smiled. road.
"In addition, I came up with such a thing as the soul, actually to use the hands of your soul beasts to restrain the soul master."
