Dao Fruit

"This is..."

Qiu Yan's trance had dissipated, and he was shocked.

"What's going on?"

He felt a part of himself floating in the air, and when he came to his senses, he realized that it was the soul of the clone floating above his head.

Speaking of clones, they are actually not much different from the original body, which is equivalent to two sides of the same coin. Except for the connection of consciousness, there is no deep connection. At this moment, in the perception of the clone, it is hazy and floating, as if it is a dream.

Looking down, he can see a huge figure sitting cross-legged, which is his scholar clone.

"Those three hairs are really extraordinary, and they really worked!"

He was secretly surprised. Although Qiu Yan had never come into contact with the great power of this world and did not know the wonderful use of the clone, he had been possessed by clay sculptures for decades as a god of the earth. Although he was trapped in the temple, he could think about it every day and had some general ideas.

The so-called clones are mostly a part of consciousness that is attached to other things. They do not contain souls. However, Qiu Yan inherited Qiu Yan's body with the help of the power of hair, and even gave birth to three souls and seven spirits.

What flew out from the top of the flesh and blood body now is the original soul, which is invisible and intangible, commonly known as the living soul. In fact, it is the three souls that have not yet condensed. They seem to be one, but in fact they are muddleheaded and pull each other, which limits the development of the soul. They are restricted by all things in the world and the flesh and cannot transcend.

"People have three souls, each with its own wonderful use. The way of cultivating nature is to make the three souls manifest clearly, and then condense them, so that they are no longer a mass and sink into the secular world. It's just that my clone can really give birth to souls and leave the body, which is really surprising."

Although there have been speculations for a long time, one of the purposes of practicing "The Secret of Sleeping God" is actually to try and verify, but when it really happened, Qiu Yan was still excited. Of course, he understood what it meant.

"No wonder neither the land god nor the city god in the south of the city could see the connection between the clone and the original body, because this clone is no different from an ordinary person except that it is connected to my consciousness and the two bodies are one mind! It can also practice! The original body and the clone are equivalent to two individuals. Only the consciousness is connected by a mysterious method. Of course, no one can see the connection. At most, there is some involvement at the level of cause and effect."

"My original body is a god, and its path has been restricted. It can only strive on the divine path, but the clone is free and can try to walk other paths. Whether it is the path of sex or life, it can choose."

"I don't know if the clone will have an impact on the original body if it achieves something. There is also the black hole under the core talisman. It was formed when it inherited the flesh and blood clone, but there was no change. I don't know if it can change after the clone succeeds in practice! As for the remaining two hairs, there is no rush."

Thinking of this, Qiu Yan was suddenly startled and felt a chill on the soul of the clone that had left the body.

That was the coldness from the soul, and then the soul that had left the body gradually disintegrated with the change of air flow and was about to disperse.

"Not good! Without the restraint of the body, the soul is actually going to disperse!"

The soul is actually a hodgepodge, with three souls mixed in it. Usually it lives in the body, and is blocked and oppressed by the yang energy of the body and flesh. Of course, it gathers into a ball, but once it leaves the body, without this layer of restraint, it will spread with the air and breeze for a while, becoming thinner and thinner, and finally breaking into pieces until it dissipates in the air.

As soon as Qiu Yan got the "Inner Secret of Sleeping God", he tried to practice. He had no idea about the taboos of the way of sexual cultivation. It was because the spirit was divided into two and completed in one step. Now the soul has left the body and fell into such a situation. Once the soul is completely dispersed, it means that the consciousness of the flesh and blood clone no longer exists, and the flesh becomes an empty shell, which is the vegetable in the previous life. In this world, it is called "soul separation syndrome".

Not only that, because of the rising cold, the living soul gradually became thinner, and Qiu Yan's consciousness was unable to control the direction and could not return!

At this moment, a flash of light appeared, and there was already a figure on the table. It was the original deity. The original deity flickered his sleeves, and a starlight shot out from his fingertips, wrapping the living soul hanging above the head of the clone.

Immediately, the living soul, which had already been on the verge of collapse, was shaken, and the speed of dispersion suddenly slowed down, but it did not stop. It vaguely had the intention of continuing to scatter through the barrier of the divine power light.

"This soul is really mysterious, even the divine power is difficult to isolate."

With a sigh, the original deity waved his sleeves again and threw out a ball of smoke. The smoke went straight to the living soul and merged into it.

This ball of smoke was the calming incense given to him by the city god.

The next moment, a quiet and peaceful breath spread in the living soul, and the smoke was lingering, gradually merging with the soul. A clear reading voice came from it, and the tone was the same as Qiu Yan's.

Deep in the soul, past memories flowed like water, but it was the scene of studying alone in the past. The words in the book that were remembered in the heart flowed out, and under the influence of the smoke, they infected the soul.

Grow stronger!

The originally weak and fragile soul grew stronger after integrating the words of literature and reason.

"What's going on? This smoke first calmed the soul, and then mobilized the poems and strategies in the memory, which could make the soul stronger? Can reading strengthen the soul?"

With the help of the group of calming incense, the soul finally settled down, no longer spread, and grew stronger. It felt to Qiu Yan like a drowning person suddenly had a swimming ring and was no longer at a loss.

At this moment, a heat wave came from all sides, squeezing the soul, and the whole soul was instantly thrown into a jumping flame, and the heat was unbearable.

The original god turned his head and looked out the window, and saw red light coming from the horizon, and a thin purple air filled the distant sky.

"It's time for the sun to rise. This book repeatedly emphasizes that the living soul is most afraid of sunlight and strong Qi and blood. Now just a trace of sunlight makes me feel like a burning fire. If the sun rises, I'm afraid I will be burned directly." evaporated."

While thinking in his mind, Qiu Yan turned his mind to let his soul return to its shell. However, when his soul moved, it was blocked by the air and floated, making it difficult to return.

"Good guy, the soul-regenerating power is weak and can't even break through the air. The soul-regenerating body leaving the body is really a troublesome thing. If you are not fully prepared, it will be a narrow escape."

Thinking like this, the divine light wrapped around the living soul flows like water, pushing the living soul back to the heavenly spirit, and finally integrates into the body.

Then, the scholar's clone opened its eyes, and the spirit returned to the scroll with respect.

After taking a deep breath, Qiu Yan was about to stand up. Unexpectedly, his body softened and he lay down directly. Then he felt his face getting hot.

"This was the first time that the soul came out of the body. First it almost collapsed, and then it was exposed to a ray of sunlight. In the end, it left sequelae. It seemed to be a fever."

Not long after, Liu Yue, who got up early, noticed something strange about Qiu Yan, and the family immediately became busy, fetching water and taking medicine.

"There are guests coming to the house these days. Your cousin and I are going to greet them. Remember to take a good rest at home today and don't go anywhere."

As soon as breakfast time passed, Liu Huai and Liu Yue gave Qiu Yan a few instructions and then left for Pan's house. Only then did the family return to peace.

"The Liu family is really honest and enthusiastic, and they treated me without reservation."

After wiping himself with warm water and taking medicine, Qiu Yan's symptoms became milder, and he felt deeply for the busyness of Liu Huai's family.

After noon, just as he left the room and tried to move around in the yard, there was a banging on the door.

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound was loud and dense like a drumbeat.

Qiu Yan frowned slightly, took two steps forward, and opened the door. A familiar yet slightly unfamiliar face appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Qiu, you made it easy for me to find him." Wang Qiaoer stood at the door, looking at Qiu Yan with a smile on his face, his eyes showing undisguised resentment.
