The original intention of spiritual practice lies in the spirit rather than the soul. The ancients believed that the soul is acquired, incompetent and without roots. Only a light in the spirit is its true nature. If the spirit comes first, the soul will be strong, but if the soul comes first, the spirit will be muddy.
There are many definitions or paths that can be called "spiritual practice", such as psychics, prophets, ghosts, etc., all of which are considered to be a type of "spiritual practice".
But according to Zuo Dao, there is only one interpretation of spiritual practice.
That is: the fundamental improvement and qualitative change of the soul, which is the aura.
And other spiritual paths can only be regarded as "accessories" derived from the different development of soul power, essence, or sensitivity.
It can also be said that he is a partial player.
Just like if a warrior is not fully developed, he will be relatively strong in body and slow in speed, or high in speed and weak in strength, and will be targeted by others who exploit their strengths and avoid weaknesses. The choice of path determines the strengths and weaknesses of the dimensional map. In terms of the physical body, this may be acceptable. Accept it, because you may reach the extreme and be able to break through all methods with one "extreme", but the cultivation of the soul cannot.
Because this is a place that even gods cannot interfere with or even rely on existence. It has broader and endless mysteries and unknowns. The effect of a little lack can make the building that people have worked hard for a lifetime to build at a certain time. , destroyed instantly.
The differences in strengths and weaknesses will result in a psychic being weak and short-lived, suffering from mental disorder, because the sensitivity increases but the strength and quality do not. Too much contact with spiritual creatures will lead to unavoidable contamination, and finally the soul collapses.
Another example is the Yin God cultivator who seeks to exist in heaven and earth after death. Although he succeeds and has strength, he lacks the essence of harmony and is no different from a ghost. Although he can see the sun, he becomes a ghost when he enters a place where the gods are watching. Bad brother.
"It is currently a feasible way to enhance all the "dimensions" of the soul in an overall and stable way, replacing the role of 'spiritual power' in driving other spells.
"After all, the soul is the most difficult thing to detect. In addition to the moment of action, you have to have a confrontation of soul power to know its depth. If anyone knows, then kill him quickly. He Shao explodes in front of his teammates who have not completely prepared the situation. This kind of power will do.”
Thinking like this, Zuo Dao's mind quickly flashed through various soul-related cultivation methods from his previous life, coupled with some of his own comprehensive thoughts. In the rapid collision of thoughts, a plan gradually took shape.
He used to be like a drug police officer. Those who go deep into the world will inevitably try drugs in order to achieve their goals. In order to increase his status in the evil circle, he will inevitably practice many evil arts, which will deepen his negative state and eventually die.
But one thing that even the heretics have to admit is that evil cultivators are not brainless extremes. Often because the side effects of evil cultivators are too obvious, they are even better than some self-proclaimed righteous people in terms of 'research' on the soul. farther.
Evil cultivators know that if they want to live in this world for a long time, their good bodies may be gone, but a good soul is indispensable. After all, if people are crazy and do evil, their sense of accomplishment will be much less, right?
Moreover, a strong soul may still be able to continue to do evil as a human evil god after the physical body dies and remains in the form of a soul body.
Therefore, there are many unique insights into tempering, nourishing, and cultivating the soul in the evil way, which have been deliberately collected by the evil way and tried to be integrated into the body system.
In essence, the left path is the inheritor of the treacherous school, standing between good and evil. If the right path is compared to the pursuit of goals with the least harm to the outside world, then the evil path is the strong thinking of achieving one's own goals by any means.
The core of the artifice school is to find what can be done among the impossible, or in other words -
This is the oldest group of leverage players, the founding group according to legend.
If resources are not enough, then just piece it together. If monsters are rare, then research spiritual materials. If spiritual materials are scarce, then lower the material standards and start magic modification.
If spiritual power is lacking, then use soul power. The core of everything is to create conditions if there are no conditions, find the lowest solution to difficulties, and then seek the higher point.
It is a pity that most of the successors of trickery have gradually understood the thinking of leverage as the thinking of compromise.
If you're weak, you're just a little weak... If you can't make it into the circle of gods, why do you go to the streets to earn a living?
Because of this, trickery gradually declined.
As for the leftist, he didn't wait for the time to recover his tricks, so he died under the negative accumulation of practicing various evil methods. At that time, he had problems with his soul, and he couldn't do it with his soul living in the world. ...
"Fortunately, I have lost my soul power since I came here, but there are no unsolvable problems like before." Zuo Dao thought with emotion.
"Needless to say, the benefits of spiritual practice are that it can solve the remaining problems of the soul. However, the disadvantage of spiritual practice is that it is extremely weak in the early stage. If you don't practice in Shilipo for ten years, you will be embarrassed to come out...
"But this problem doesn't exist for me. First of all, the purpose of taking the spiritual path first is to increase the strength of the soul, to effectively prevent being "charmed" when encountering an evil object, and to use soul power instead of spiritual power to drive one's own tricks. Technique, in this case the early weakness of spiritual cultivation will no longer exist."
"The most important thing is that this is the most trouble-free way. You don't have to find a lot of spiritual materials to practice with spells, and you don't need to spend a long time to warm up to resolve the remaining problems of the soul. You can also gain stronger self-protection ability in the short term. You can It is said to be very consistent with the values of the scheming school in the Middle Ages..."
After deciding on the plan, Zuo Dao began to think about which of the spiritual cultivation systems he had studied in the past was most suitable for him now.
During the quick weighing, a system came to mind and occupied a dominant position.
"——Zhenling Soul Forging" Zuo Dao whistled in his heart:
"This is my housekeeper."
Spiritual soul training does not require complex and cumbersome processes and materials in the early stage of training. Through the soul power of the soul itself, a very clever balance point is used to stimulate each other, promote the growth of the true soul, that is, the spiritual light, and realize the two-way improvement of the soul. The only The problem is that it requires people who have not yet practiced spirituality to use it.
Otherwise, it will easily cause a soul explosion.
But the current left path fully meets this condition and is not restricted.
In the past, in order to test the feasibility of this system, the leftists specifically provoked conflicts within some evil sects, and naturally captured some minor villains and used them as experimental subjects.
Just when Zuo Dao was gearing up, a lot of information synchronized with Zhi Ling, making his expression change.
There is new progress on Duan Qiang's side.
...
Abandoned factory.
Duan Qiang silently reached the last floor of the stairs with a heavy body. In front of him was the door to the top floor.
He didn't open the door for a long time. The exhaustion in his heart and body, as well as the fierce psychological struggle, made him stop for a long time.
Zhi Ling inside his body also noticed the violent emotional fluctuations in Duan Qiang's heart for the first time.
Duan Qiang took a deep breath, used his last strength, and opened the door with one hand.
The moonlight shimmered through the open attic door, illuminating Duan Qiang's dirty face and dissipating the luminous spell in his hand.
Then, he saw someone.
That person also saw him.
