The Legend of the Great Desolation: I Am the Fortress

Chapter 67 The Second Soul
Lei Zhan was once again the only one left in the entire treasure hall.

Leizhan sat cross-legged on the dry stone bed, his eyes fixed on the golden crow egg in front of him.

"Now that my spiritual awareness can reach two thousand miles, I can easily perform this second elemental mystical technique."

You should know that performing the secret art of the second spirit is extremely dangerous. It requires dividing a complete soul into two parts, and then placing one of them into the carrier of the second spirit.

If the soul is not strong enough, if it is split into two rashly, it may not even be able to hold on until the separated soul is placed in the second soul carrier, and it is very likely to be annihilated directly.

By then, the whole person may lose his personality and become neurotic, dark, and crazy.

Therefore, if one wants to cultivate the second soul, even if a cultivator obtains the most precious carrier of the second soul by chance, he will choose to stay at the soul level for a very long time, or break through to the earthly immortal level before cultivating the second soul.

If you cultivate a second spirit just because your spirit soul is not strong enough, you are courting death!
However, Leizhan's soul is much stronger than those immortal cultivators who have stayed in the earthly immortal level for endless years, so naturally there is no such risk.

Leizhan's mind was full of thoughts, and suddenly a magical storage device appeared in his hand. It was the same magical device that Fairy Wangshu had taken out.

Although this storage magic weapon is a top-grade magic weapon of the heavenly grade, it has long been refined by Lei Zhan, and everything inside it is presented in front of Lei Zhan's eyes.

There weren't many things in it, just a bamboo slip, a gourd of top-grade immortal pills, and a palm-sized jade token shaped like a dragon scale.

Wow.

With a thought, the bamboo slip in the storage magic weapon suddenly appeared in front of Lei Zhan.

"Everything is ready. Let's see if this secret technique works as Daoist Wangshu said. If it can make my soul and this Golden Crow Egg completely compatible, there will be more possibilities in the future."

Lei Zhan's eyes were dim. In his soul memory, he knew of a technique that was the best in the Three Realms. It was an escape technique that could reach the limit of the Heavenly Dao!

The limits of the Heavenly Dao can generally only be reached and surpassed by strong people at the World Realm level.

If it is perfectly compatible with the Golden Crow Egg, as long as one becomes stronger in the future, it may not be impossible to practice the best escape technique in the Three Realms.

Leizhan collected his thoughts, stretched out his hand, and touched the bamboo slips directly with his slender fingers.

Suddenly, a huge amount of information poured out from the bamboo slips and poured into the soul.

a long time.

"This secret technique..." Lei Zhan flipped through the secret technique recorded deep in his soul and was amazed. This secret technique was indeed unique and even very suitable for him now.

You have to know that the Golden Crow Egg he obtained has been around for an unknown period of time. Although no soul has been born in it, there is still vitality in the egg.

The secret technique that Fairy Wangshu used was when she was taking over another person's body.

As long as the secret technique is performed, the separated soul can be completely integrated into the vitality within the Golden Crow Egg, becoming one with this vitality, just like a real Golden Crow breaking out of its shell and being born, and the degree of fit is naturally 100%.

Lei Zhan's understanding is amazing. Although this secret technique is exquisite, it is not complicated in essence.

He carefully looked through the secret techniques in his memory and mastered them completely in just one hour.

"Let's start!" Leizhan looked up at the golden crow egg still placed on the stone platform and covered in flames.

The essence of the lake and the Zhulong dragon ball under the stone platform were all taken away, and the golden flame on the entire Golden Crow Egg had dimmed a lot.

Leizhan was extremely calm and free of distracting thoughts, all his mind was focused on the secret art of the 'Second Element Mystic Art' and the 'Unity of Mind, Soul and Body'.

The 'Second Mystical Art' requires one to cut one's soul into two... Naturally, one must be extremely cautious.

"call."

"suck."

Leizhan took a long breath and sat cross-legged with his eyes closed.

The soul flew out from the turtle and snake spirit, flew into the sea of ​​consciousness, and stood in the center of the sea of ​​consciousness, with a hazy white light covering the whole body.

This circle of hazy white light was composed of spear beams after Leizhan stepped onto the road of spear.

Although these spear beams made Lei Zhan's soul more resilient, it would also be more difficult to split the soul into two.

However, these are all things that Leizhan must go through.

Whether it is to cultivate the second soul or to refine the body of a god or demon to reach the soul level in the future, it is necessary to divide the soul into two parts.

To cultivate the second spirit, one needs to split the soul into two and place them into the carrier of the second spirit. To refine the body of a god or demon to the level of the spirit, one needs to merge the soul with all the divine power in the body.

Wow~~~
The divine consciousness was like a knife, and an invisible divine consciousness suddenly appeared at the center of the eyebrows of the soul barrier. Then a flash of light passed by, and it reached the center of the eyebrows and chopped down directly.

"hiss!"

When the sword was slashed down, even Leizhan's extremely powerful Dao heart trembled and he couldn't help but gasp.

Pain, an extreme tearing pain suddenly spread from the soul to the whole body. Lei Zhanqiang gritted his teeth and endured it.

This pain of tearing the soul apart is something that every cultivator who wants to practice the second level of mystical magic must go through.

Just a moment.

"open!"

Lei Zhan's heart of Taoism is so strong. After the trials and tribulations of past and present lives, even though the pain of his soul being torn apart is extremely terrifying, Lei Zhan's will is still as strong as iron.

The sharp knife of spiritual consciousness continued to move downward and extend, at a fast and firm speed.

Head, neck, chest, until it completely penetrates the whole body.

But in the blink of an eye, the soul seemed to be torn in half by a pair of invisible hands.

……

at the same time.

"This fellow Daoist Leizhan... is such an interesting person!" Fairy Wangshu was also sitting cross-legged. The entire hall was empty and completely unaffected by the outside world.

"Placing me in this hall will not affect his cultivation of the Second Soul. And my refining of the Zhulong Dragon Pearl to enhance my bloodline will not be affected..."

Fairy Wangshu thought about what had just happened for only an hour, but she found it quite novel.

The feeling of verbal battles and battles of wits and courage that unfolded beneath the surface of an ordinary transaction was something she had never experienced before. "Hmph." As if she had thought of something, Fairy Wangshu smiled faintly.

"It's just the power of the formation's restriction. Once I refine this dragon ball, my divine and demonic body will be able to break through to the Return to Void level. Even with the blessing of my bloodline, my strength will be even stronger! By then, I will definitely let you taste the power of this fairy!"

Fairy Wangshu waved her hand, and a broken dragon ball emitting terrifying fluctuations appeared in front of her.

She is the descendant of Yinglong and has pure blood. If she refines this piece of dragon ball fragment, she will most likely reach the level of five claws.

The purer the dragon bloodline, the more difficult it will be as time goes by.

You must know that Wangshu Fairy's father Yinglong has already possessed the ultimate strength of a god or immortal, and is even about to become a Taoist ancestor. He is the purest and most top-notch five-clawed dragon!

……

time flies.

Lei Zhan was still sitting cross-legged on the stone bed. Except for his pale face due to the separation of his soul and spirit, his aura was extremely steady.

On the stone platform, the golden crow egg as big as a water tank was becoming more and more vigorous. Even without the nourishment of the Zhulong dragon ball and countless essence liquids, the flames surrounding it were becoming hotter and hotter.

Most importantly, the vigorous vitality in the Golden Crow Egg gave birth to the spirit and soul.

The spirit and soul were in harmony, and even became indistinguishable from the entire Golden Crow Egg, as if this offspring of the ancient mythical beast that had existed for endless years had been reborn into life.

"Done!" Leizhan slowly opened his eyes with a lingering smile in his eyes.

His soul was so powerful that it was easily split into two. He then entered the Golden Crow Egg very smoothly. Using the secret technique, his soul, blood and flesh merged into one.

It even almost gave Lei Zhan the illusion that he was the Golden Crow, a Golden Crow with extremely pure blood!

"Next, we have to start practicing." Lei Zhan whispered softly.

Completely fusing the spirit and soul with the Golden Crow Egg is only the first step. If one wants to break out of the shell or even transform into a human form, one needs to practice slowly and improve one's cultivation.

Fortunately, after countless years, the Golden Crow Egg had died, but it had also absorbed too much essence, too many treasures, and the essence of rare objects, and even some of the essence of the Candle Dragon Pearl.

These essences and fluids are all deposited in the Golden Crow Egg, waiting for the creature in the egg to develop consciousness and spontaneously begin to practice, and then in a very short time, all these essences will be transformed into nourishment for practice.

"Success and failure are all due to Xiao He." There was a sigh on Leizhan's face.

"While this incomparably precious Zhulong Dragon Pearl can enhance the potential of the Golden Crow Egg, making it even more powerful after hatching, it also has the potential to be inadequate to replenish its vitality. Instead, it could kill the soul and true spirit within the Golden Crow Egg that was about to be born in its cradle."

"However, I have chosen a very good timing to take over now." Lei Zhan was delighted.

Indeed, the essence of the large number of rare objects and treasures in the treasure hall will soon be completely absorbed. After being completely absorbed, it will reach a peak, and from then on it will go from prosperity to decline.

Without the nourishment of countless treasure essences, the essence absorbed by the Golden Crow Egg will naturally continue to be lost.

After billions of years, the entire Golden Crow Egg was completely dead, and even countless treasures and rare objects turned into ashes over the long years, leaving only a few survivors.

Lei Zhan shook his head slightly, collected his thoughts, and then fell into deep thought.

"This second soul's true form is the Three-legged Golden Crow. If I practice the Pure Yang Method I obtained in the cave, it wouldn't be a problem. However, in terms of power, the Nine Directions Fragments of the Qi Training Method is more outstanding."

"And this divine and demonic body refining method..."

The method of Qi training is easy to choose. Although Leizhan has two pure Yang Qi training methods in his hands, it is definitely not in line with his personality to not learn the more powerful method but the weaker one.

What made Lei Zhan hesitate was the divine and demonic body-refining method of cultivating the second soul.

Since the soul and the Golden Crow Egg were completely integrated and the second spirit was successfully cultivated, several more magical powers naturally emerged in the soul.

Among them was the top magical power "Golden Rainbow of the Sun" that he had previously obtained in the Taoist Temple, as well as the brief version of his magical power "Fleeting Glimpses".

There is also a divine and demonic body-refining technique, "The Art of Burning the Sky with Ten Thousand Suns".

"This Ten Thousand Suns Burning Heaven Art... is indeed more suitable for the Three-legged Golden Crow to practice."

After pondering for a long time, Lei Zhan whispered softly, "However, I have been practicing the Scarlet Bright Nine Heavens Diagram for the Divine Demon Body Refining Technique, so I am more familiar with it. It is also the same as the Ten Thousand Suns Burning Heaven Art, which is the top Divine Demon Body Refining Technique in the Three Realms. Both can be cultivated to the level of a True God, so the difference is not much..."

"That's all."

But in an instant, Lei Zhan had the answer in his mind.

"If you're divided, how can you go far in your cultivation? The Divine Demon Body Refining Technique is the foundation of cultivation. I've been practicing this, and I'll continue to practice it. Unless... this technique is truly unsustainable."

Leizhan shook his head slowly.

The most taboo on the path of cultivation is greed. You want this and that. In the end, you don't have the energy to cultivate one skill to perfection, resulting in knowing everything, but each one is mediocre.

"It's the Red Bright Nine Heavens Diagram! There's no essential difference between the two methods. Each breakthrough will allow me to cultivate the most perfect divine body. But at most, it can only be used at the True God level."

"It is it, and it will always be it!"

As if he had made up his mind, all the troubles in Leizhan's heart were swept away in an instant.

In an instant, Leizhan's whole heart became more transparent, his heart towards the Tao became more resolute, and his heart towards the Tao also became stronger.

Lei Zhan slowly closed his eyes and immersed himself in cultivation.

My own Qi flow training has already broken through the level of the primordial spirit, but the body training of gods and demons still needs to absorb the power of the moon and the sun step by step. I need to improve my cultivation to the same level as the Qi flow training as soon as possible.

Needless to say, the second soul that has been successfully cultivated now also needs to practice both body and qi training.

If you want to break out of the shell, you need to wait until at least the level of all things or the level of the soul.

Want to transform?

Then it must at least be at the Return to Void level.

Because the second soul has not yet hatched, even Leizhan himself cannot fully confirm it.

If it is more extreme, it is very likely that one will have to wait until he has overcome the heavenly tribulation before he can successfully transform!
