Chapter 841 Ascension
Compared with the education and knowledge Zhou Qing had received in the past, the way the witches of the Witch God Continent practiced was not completely different, but it undoubtedly had many contradictions.

In the past, Zhou Qing had only heard of unlucky monks whose physical bodies were accidentally damaged and who were forced to survive in the world as souls.

I have never heard of a way to actively dissolve the soul and only keep the body.

Zhou Qing did not dare to say whether the witch's path was right or wrong, but he still felt that it was reasonable for the soul and the body to practice together.

When the cultivators of this world reach the out-of-body state, they hold a witch god ritual to transform themselves into a witch. This is not a 100% success rate and there is a possibility of failure.

If the witch god ritual is successful and the soul witch medicine is refined, one can naturally transform into a witch smoothly.

But if the ritual fails, the soul that has already condensed will simply dissipate again and scatter throughout the body without integrating.

At that time, the essence of the soul will be contaminated by the power of the ritual and the essence of the physical body, and will no longer be pure, and will never be able to condense again and practice out of the body.

In other words, once the witch god ritual fails, the monk will not only fail to become a witch, but will also be unable to follow the normal path of a monk.

The soul's cultivation ends here.

In Zhou Qing's opinion, this is a bit extreme.

As for whether the witch god ritual can be successful, according to the practice cognition of the witch god continent, it depends on whether the witch god bloodline of the living being meets the standards.

Once the blood concentration reaches a standard line, the success rate of the witch god ritual will be very high.

Zhou Qing had previously thought that Grandpa Mu’s mental power was a bit strange, and different from that of a normal out-of-body realm cultivator.

Now that he had learned this knowledge, he understood that after Grandpa Mu's witch ritual had failed, his soul had dispersed throughout his body.

This is a witch who failed in transformation.

The spiritual power that his previous out-of-body cultivation brought him still existed, but it was scattered and not condensed. At the same time, it had been contaminated by the power of the ritual and was no longer pure.

The subsequent practice of a witch is mainly based on bloodline.

The practice philosophy of a witch is to make himself close to the witch god through blood.

The closer one is to the witch god, the more powerful one is.

The demon warriors, on the other hand, are truly warriors who rely on the power of demons to become stronger.

Those who do not have the talent for soul cultivation in the Wushen Continent begin practicing martial arts and strengthening their bodies at the age of twelve, and undergo the awakening ceremony at the age of eighteen.

The time required to temper the physical body does not necessarily have to be six years.

For someone like Mu He, whose martial arts skills are ordinary, whose talent is poor, and who doesn't have any precious tonic medicine, he can only rely on time to hone his body. He must train his body for six years before he can meet the physical fitness requirements of the awakening ceremony.

People with good family background and good talents can complete physical training in advance and undergo the opening ceremony more quickly.

The ritual of opening the orifice is to use a witch instrument refined by a witch to draw in the power of the witch god between heaven and earth, stimulate the witch god's bloodline in the body of a living being, and open up a witch orifice in the body of the living being.

During this process, it is necessary to use demon blood to carve secret patterns on the bodies of living beings, using the power of demons to assist in opening their minds.

If you succeed in awakening, you will become a first-level demon warrior.

If the awakening of the mind fails, the worst-case scenario is severe injury or illness, which shortens one’s lifespan.

The worst case scenario is instant death.

The path of a demon warrior is much more dangerous than that of a witch, but you will not die if the witch god ritual fails.

In addition, the awakening ceremony requires the witch's magic tools, and the subsequent practice of the demon warriors also requires the help of the witch. Therefore, in the Witch God Continent, witches are the most noble group of people and are the followers of the Witch God.

In the eyes of the witch, ordinary demon warriors are just fighters or even thugs.

And those demon secret texts engraved on the body during the awakening ceremony are still useful after the awakening is successful. They can be said to be the foundation for demon warriors to continue to become stronger.

The demon secret patterns can absorb the free demonic energy between heaven and earth, and the secret patterns are engraved on the bodies of demon warriors. The secret patterns absorb the demonic energy, and these demonic energies will naturally enter the bodies of demon warriors.

The demon secret patterns have a certain filtering effect on demonic energy. When the filtered demonic energy enters the warrior's body, it will be gradually absorbed by the warrior with the use of corresponding demon martial arts.

This is an extremely painful way to temper the body.

After most of the demonic energy is absorbed by the physical body, a very small amount of demonic energy will remain. This part of demonic energy is extremely pure and will eventually enter the witch's orifice and turn into magic power that can be used by the warrior.

It is equivalent to the secret pattern and the warrior's body. Only after double filtration can pure magic power be extracted.

When the physical body has been tempered to a limit, as has the witch's orifice, it will be necessary to engrave higher-level secret patterns on the body and practice more powerful martial arts before the demon warrior can continue to make progress.

And all of these are under the control of the witch.

It is worth mentioning that the witch's practice will also open up the witch's orifice. If the witch god ritual is successful, the witch's orifice will also be opened at the same time.

But what is stored in the witch's witch orifice is not magic power, but witch power.

The Witch God Continent calls witch power the power that comes from the Witch God.

Zhou Qing looked through this information and frowned deeply.

If the witch's practice seemed a little unconventional to him, then the demon warriors were seriously problematic.

The example of the chaotic demon world is there. Normal creatures that absorb demonic energy for a long time will be corroded and eventually transformed into demons.

However, the demon warriors in the Witch God Continent all rely on demonic energy and the power of demons to practice and become stronger.

Even if there are secret patterns to filter it, how can the demonic energy be completely harmless?
It can be seen from the fact that the demon warriors suffer immense pain during their training that they must be in a state of being eroded when absorbing demonic energy.

Demonic energy accumulated in them, and the power of the demons infected their spirits.

If this continues, we will not be training warriors, but training demons.

Zhou Qing was not exaggerating, but the fact. The third young master of the Luo family had seen and heard such things in his memory, and such things had even happened within the Luo family.

A veteran demon warrior eventually underwent a physical mutation and became mentally insane, turning from a demon warrior into a bloodthirsty demon!
This kind of thing is not uncommon.

In other words, this is something that all forces with a certain amount of power and status know.

To embark on the path of a demon warrior is to embark on a road of no return, and there is almost no good ending.

The stronger the demon warrior, the greater the possibility of his eventual mutation. Even in Zhou Qing's opinion, unless you have some unique means to solve the erosion of demonic energy, you will inevitably become a demon.

In this case, how can the disaster of demons in this world be quelled?

Even if all the original demons are killed, new demons will continue to be born.

Demon warrior?

The demon reserve is pretty good!
Honestly speaking, Zhou Qing couldn't quite understand why the Witch God Continent would promote the cultivation path of Demon Warriors.

Instead of cultivating the soul, one must cultivate witchcraft. This may be due to the history of the Witch God Continent. Zhou Qing can understand it. Perhaps the people here really have the bloodline of the Witch God.

But here in the Wushen Continent, the way of martial arts has already appeared. Why not practice orthodox martial arts instead of creating demon warriors?

Of course, this looks very strange from the perspective of an outsider like Zhou Qing. The native creatures of the Wushen Continent have always lived in such an environment, so they must think it is very normal.

In addition to the witches and demon warriors, Zhou Qing also learned a lot of other information about the Witch God Continent.

In Baoding City, the strongest person is the Lord of Baoding City, who is a divine wizard from the Temple of Wizards.

The Temple of the Witch God is the most powerful force in the Witch God Continent and is known to be the legacy of the Witch God.

The lord of any city on the Wushen Continent is a member of the Wushen Temple, who dominates all directions.

The divine witch is a realm of witches.

In Luo Ting's memory, above the divine wizards there are the legendary earth wizards, sky wizards, and wizards who are even more legendary, more mythical, and more powerful.

But Luo Ting had never even seen an Earth Witch. Those were too far away, and he had only occasionally seen some fragmentary records of them somewhere.

Below the divine wizard, from highest to lowest, are the Wizard King, the Great Wizard, and the Wizard.

There are three levels of great witches, with level three being the highest.

A wizard is a soul practitioner who has not yet performed wizard rituals, and is divided into three levels.

The third-level wizard is what Zhou Qing called the out-of-body state.

If a third-level wizard succeeds in his wizard god ritual, he will become a first-level great wizard. Zhou Qing can understand this. After all, in the early stage, the soul is transformed into martial arts of the corresponding realm, so the combat power will naturally increase greatly.

The demon warriors are simple, they are divided into level one and level two.

The strongest person in the Luo family is the Witch King, and Baoding City is not a super city.

Zhou Qing is not quite sure about the strength of these wizards at the moment, but in Baoding City, he feels that he is still safe.

"It is said that the Heavenly Wizard and the Earthly Wizard are able to become one with the heaven and earth... They should be similar to the practitioners in the Heaven Realm and the Earth Realm."

Zhou Qing thought, if this is the case, then when he recovers from his injuries, he will definitely be considered a master in this Witch God Continent.

However, apart from this information, there was one thing in Luo Ting's memory that surprised Zhou Qing.

In the Wushen Continent, there is a legend of ascension!
It is said that three thousand years ago, the master of the Witch God Temple was so powerful that he ascended to heaven in broad daylight and went to the fairyland.

Going further back, there were also many legends of ascension circulating throughout the mainland.

Ascend!
This was something Zhou Qing had never heard of in his original world. The master of Xuandu Temple and others had never shown any signs of ascension.

What is ascension? Does the immortal world really exist?
If I ascend here, where will I go?
It has to be said that Zhou Qing became more and more interested in this world he accidentally drifted into.

Zhou Qing bought some things in Baoding City, all of which were items needed for those who practice the path of demon warriors, or even to become witches.

It was of no use to him, but he wanted to study it and see if he could gain anything from it.

As for money...

How could such a thing be hard to come by? Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing has also learned the human language of this world, so he can communicate directly in the future. Then he returned to Mujiazhai. The sky was still clear, and no one noticed that he had been to Baoding City and back.

The real body was still concentrating on healing. Zhou Qing's soul walked out of the room and saw Mu He sweating again on the open space in front of the building.

Ah He, you are practicing boxing again.

Mu Hua is not here. She went to the river to wash clothes.

Zhou Qing sat on the chair and watched Mu He practice Tongli Fist. After he finished practicing, he said:
"When it comes to martial arts training, haste makes waste. Too much is as bad as too little. If you practice every day regardless of fatigue and force yourself to do so, you will hurt your body instead."

Especially since Mu He did not have external aids such as medicinal baths and spiritual plants, the hidden injuries left behind were difficult to eliminate.

Mu He was silent, then said:
"There's some boiling-blood wild boar meat these days, which is good for boxing practice. I'll be eighteen in a year, so I have to hurry up."

The boiling-blood wild boar is equivalent to the wild beast in Zhou Qing's world. There is indeed energy contained in its flesh and blood.

Zhou Qing asked: "Do you know the dangers of the awakening ceremony?"

Now he feels very comfortable talking about these things.

Because now he understands!
"know."

"Then have you ever thought about what will happen to Mu Hua if you fail?"

"I will entrust the small painting to Sister Honghua."

"Have you told the Mu witch doctor about the special features of Mu paintings?"

Mu He's eyes narrowed, he looked at Zhou Qing and smiled.

"You also know that I'm very powerful. I can see this. It makes sense, doesn't it?"

Mu He shook his head and said, "I didn't tell anyone about the special features of the little painting. I was afraid of attracting danger."

Zhou Qing said approvingly: "It's a wise choice."

The brother and sister have no one to rely on and their ability to resist risks is too poor. Any accident may bring them a catastrophic disaster.

What they both said was special about Mu Hua was that the little girl had already opened her soul realm and was able to use her mental power to a preliminary extent.

This is also the reason why Mu He brought Mu Hua with him when he went into the mountains to hunt. Mu Hua's mental power could bring considerable help.

Zhou Qing saw through this situation at a glance. It was impossible to hide it from him, but it was just not mentioned before.

"Do you know what this means?"

Mu He hesitated for a moment and said, "Can Xiao Hua become a witch doctor?"

The young men in the village are still too shallow in knowledge.

"More than just a witch doctor, she has the potential to become a real witch."

A witch doctor is just a healer in this village who possesses some special abilities.

Mu He was excited, and Zhou Qing asked again:
"When did this happen? Did Mu Hua practice witchcraft? Did she take any special treasures?"

Mu He did not hide it. "It happened a month ago. At that time, Xiao Hua had just turned twelve years old. One night, she woke up and became like this. She did not take any treasure."

"The witch's method...we have only heard of it. Maybe only Grandpa Mu knows it in the village."

"Naturally awaken the soul."

Zhou Qing was amazed that without any training or use of treasures, he could naturally open the soul realm at a certain age. This was a symbol of soul genius.

It means that one is born with a strong soul, active mental power, and innate foundation and talent that surpass others.

The most typical example is the innate special soul. For most of the innate special souls, their soul realm will naturally open when they reach the age of twelve.

However, the self-awakening of the soul's homeland does not necessarily mean that it is an innate alien soul.

Zhou Qing was not sure whether Mu Hua was a congenital alien soul. Her soul had not yet condensed, so a careful examination was needed to confirm.

Mu He asked, "Is Xiao Hua very talented?"

"very good."

Zhou Qing affirmed, "If the blood of the witch god meets the standards, then one can definitely become a witch, or even a strong witch."

What's the point of being a great witch? If someone with a talent like Mu Hua chooses the path of a soul cultivator, even if his inheritance and resources are average, he still has great hope of reaching the Yin Shen realm.

But he didn't understand anything about the Yin Shen Realm that Mu He was talking about.

"witch……"

Mu He's breathing suddenly became rapid. These were the most noble group of people in the Wushen Continent. It would be best if his sister could also become one of them.

In this way, even if I fail to realize my mistake and the worst result occurs, my sister can still survive.

Zhou Qing said: "If you want to become a witch, you also need to see if the blood of the witch god is strong. Don't have too high expectations."

In Zhou Qing's opinion, this point is difficult to comment on.

With the talent of natural soul awakening, one can focus on the soul and spirit, and the Yin Shen realm is very stable, and can also look forward to the next realm.

But if one follows the path of a witch, if the concentration of the witch god's blood is not high enough, then the witch god ritual will fail, and such a soul genius will be directly wasted.

I got a seed of a high probability Yin God, but in the end I couldn't even cultivate to the Out-of-Body Realm...

A bit difficult to stretch.

It’s not that Zhou Qing wanted to scare Mu He, but whether the soul’s talent is outstanding has no direct relationship with whether the witch god’s bloodline is strong.

In the history of the Luo family, there are many examples where people with better soul talents failed to become witches, while those with lesser talents succeeded.

With Mu Hua's talent, it would be a waste if the witch god ritual failed.

Upon hearing this, Mu He looked a little dejected.

"Yes, with our background, how could we possibly have such a strong witch god bloodline?"

"Kings, princes, generals and ministers are all born with a certain kind of blood. There is no need to worry too much about your origin."

Zhou Qing said calmly: "I was also an orphan before, and my conditions were better than you two siblings."

"As long as you are willing to work hard, you can change your destiny."

“Then how should I try?”

Of course, I tried my best to cheat.

However, Zhou Qing would only think about these words that would dampen the ambitions of young people in his heart and would definitely not say them out loud.

"You and Mu Hua saved my life. I will repay a favor, so I can teach you martial arts and teach you martial arts before I leave Mujiazhai."

Anyway, this fragment of soul can handle these things and will not affect Zhou Qing's real body's healing. Just take it as a way to have some fun during his days of hibernation in Mujiazhai.

The most important thing is that Zhou Qing wants to see if the people in this world can practice orthodox martial arts.

The path of the demon warrior is too evil. It is completely artificially created demons. Zhou Qing thinks it is very problematic.

In Luo Ting's memory, the demon warriors originated from the Temple of the Witch God. They were the method bestowed by the Witch God on the world to fight against demons.

If the people in this world really have no way to practice orthodox martial arts, and cannot cultivate inner breath, true energy, and true essence, then that's fine. It may be that this world is special, and they are forced to follow the path of demonic martial arts.

But if they could practice the orthodox martial arts, those witches would still vigorously promote demon warriors...

The intention behind this is worth pondering.

It is a fact that demon warriors will be demonized. Zhou Qing does not believe that the people of the Witch God Continent cannot see the hidden dangers of pursuing this path.

It always feels like there's a conspiracy.

Unexpectedly, Mu He said:
"Can you please teach Xiaohua how to practice? I can give her this opportunity."

Zhou Qing burst out laughing, and at the same time, he admired Mu He more and more.

"You all saved me together, so I will not ignore her. I will guide her."

In fact, Zhou Qing wanted to try and see if he could get Mu Hua to follow the orthodox soul path. There was too much uncertainty in all those witchcraft rituals.

But this depends on whether the brother and sister agree.

"Thank you."

Mu He was excited and leaned forward, ready to kneel down.

Zhou Qing stretched out his mind to hold Mu He, and said, "No need to do these empty things."

Mu He actually had the idea of ​​getting Zhou Qing's advice in his heart a long time ago, but the young man was cautious and did not say it out loud for fear of bringing disaster.

"Come here, I'll check your bones."

Zhou Qing knew Mu He's martial arts aptitude without having to test it. He had already seen that it was extremely poor and not suitable for practicing martial arts.

He wanted to check whether there was any difference between Luo Ting and the human race from the world he came from. If there were any minor differences in structure, it would be troublesome.

At the same time, Zhou Qing also wanted to see if Mu He had the blood of the witch god.

After a while, Zhou Qing finished his inspection and fell into deep thought.

There's nothing here.
