Chapter 129: Reincarnation
Chapter 129: Reincarnation
In the sea of consciousness, a bright moon slowly rose, side by side with the sun in the sky. This was the manifestation of Gu Chenyu's Taixu Soul Refining Technique's "Sense of Things" chapter. Both yin and yang evolved from absorbing the power of the Sun and Moon Spring.
Gu Chenyu's left eye is yang and his right eye is yin, in the shape of the sun and the moon. He opened his eyes and two rays of light flashed.
He stood up slowly. His clothes had already burst open, exposing his upper body. His trousers were also tattered, which only covered his private parts. The back of his buttocks felt a little cold, and he didn't know when two big holes were burned on them.
His aura became powerful, and his cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Venerable Realm. With his perfect soul body in the real world, he was nurturing a divine embryo. His cultivation was far beyond that of other cultivators in the same realm.
"call."
Gu Chenyu let out a long breath, then suddenly dry-heaved, spitting out some of the broken bodies of insects. The soul-nourishing insects were completely absorbed, leaving only the residue.
Fang Yixian fell into a deep sleep, her soul power had reached perfection. The two of them absorbed the power of the Sun and Moon Spring, and both seemed to have been greatly improved.
After changing his clothes, the soul medicine he brought had been eaten by the dozen or so insects. Gu Chenyu stretched out his hand and put the soul-nourishing insects in his hand.
"Seniors, please tell me how to restore your bodies."
Gu Chenyu injected soul power into them, and in an instant these soul bodies were greatly replenished.
"You've come out of seclusion? Oh my God, we almost starved to death." The remnant soul said weakly. Those soul medicines were not enough, and Gu Chenyu only left three, but he secluded himself for nearly a month and almost starved them to death.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't know I could stay in seclusion for so long."
"Your cultivation? Hmm? No, you haven't reached the Soul Realm yet..."
The remnant soul felt helpless. The spirit soul realm he mentioned was actually the heavenly realm. Only cultivators in the heavenly realm could barely absorb the water in this pool. The remnant soul mistakenly thought that Gu Chenyu had reached the heavenly realm, but he didn't expect that he was just a Venerable realm.
"When I absorbed your spiritual power, I thought you had already reached the Heavenly Man Realm. I never thought you were only a Venerable. It's a pity."
"Senior, what do you mean?" Gu Chenyu asked puzzledly.
The remnant soul paused, understood, and said: "It's okay, there is the law of yin and yang in it. If you are a celestial being, you may be able to comprehend it. It's a pity that you are at the Venerable Realm, and the huge medicinal power did not burst you. It shows that you are also a genius among ten thousand."
Gu Chenyu ignored his praise. He had no idea about the law of yin and yang. His biggest feeling was that he had reached the level of a venerable. It was probably Fang Yixian's spirit that made them mistakenly think they were celestial beings. But it was not a big problem. Gu Chenyu was not a good person. If he was in a bad mood, he would kill them and see if he could make something to nourish his spirit.
"Senior, please tell me how to restore my physical body." Gu Chenyu didn't want to listen to their flattery, so he urged them.
"For people like us, there are only three ways to return to the human world. The first is to possess someone else's body. This is also the last resort for the ancient remnant soul, but it is extremely efficient. As long as a Grandmaster cultivator can possess someone else's body..."
"The second is to refine the body. To refine a body from the corpse of a strong person, one generally needs to be at the level of a celestial being. The corpse of the celestial being is refined with medicine to replenish the blood and restore the body. After taking over the body, one can also obtain a portion of the cultivation level of the celestial being during his lifetime."
"The third is the method of reincarnation, but not sending someone into the cycle of reincarnation. That would be considered the cessation of life and death. With our strength, we would most likely be unacceptable to the Heavenly Dao and be completely annihilated, unworthy of even the word reincarnation. The method of reincarnation only requires finding a mortal who is about to give birth, and transferring the soul into the mother's body with the blessing method. When the embryo is formed in the future, the soul will no longer need the blessing of the Heavenly Dao, and the soul sent into the mother's body will be able to reincarnate."
"However, the third method is more difficult and is against the will of heaven. The caster will lose at least ten years of life. Moreover, everything about the new soul will have to start all over again, and the memory will be sealed. Ancient remnant souls like us cannot enter the world in this way, my friend..."
The remnant soul was a little hesitant. Although this method could bring the person back to life, it would lose his cultivation and soul power. The baby born from the mother's womb might not be able to practice in the future. There were too many variables involved.
"It's okay, just keep talking."
Gu Chenyu was actually somewhat interested in this. The method of reincarnation, reincarnation with one's own memories, could it be related to this?
"This method of reincarnation has too many drawbacks. First, it is extremely harmful to the caster, and second, it may not be a good thing for the person being cast. If there is no protector on the road of growth, there will be too many variables and it may die prematurely..."
Hearing this, Gu Chenyu frowned. It was indeed true. If one was not careful, one would die and then enter the cycle of reincarnation.
Gu Chenyu felt helpless. This was indeed not a good idea. The method of refining the body might be more suitable for Bai Yansha. When his cultivation level improved in the future, he would kill a few celestial beings and then use his magical powers to bring the old man back to the world.
"My cultivation is not good enough now. Are you willing to wait until I reach the realm of heavenly beings? If I kill the evil heavenly beings in the future, I will definitely fulfill my promise and let you return to the world."
Gu Chenyu said to the insects, just paint a pie in the sky first, it won’t hinder his practice anyway. If they don’t want to, that’s fine, he can kill them all and use them as a tonic.
These residual souls hesitated for a while, and finally sighed, "Please find a place that can accommodate souls. We also need a habitat to nurture our spirits."
He took out the jade hairpin, which could hold the soul and had good effects, so it could be used as a carrier for them.
"Seniors, please take this thing for now. This matter needs to be considered in the long run. Those spiritual medicines are difficult to replenish. It would be great if there were enough medicinal materials in this secret realm."
Gu Chenyu was in a dilemma. These things were indeed hard to find. Gu Chenyu didn't think he was completely sure. The elixir that repaired the body was already ranked seventh grade. He was only a fourth grade alchemist now, so his strength was naturally far from enough.
"We know how difficult it is. We can wait for a hundred thousand years, let alone a few hundred years in the future. We will do our best to help you quickly improve your cultivation level. We just need you to expend your soul power on a daily basis to nourish our spirits." said the remnant soul. They had no way out.
"Okay, if you seniors treat me sincerely, I will definitely help you recover your bodies when I succeed in cultivation."
Gu Chenyu injected several soul powers into them, one of which was directly given to the soul that was conversing with it, allowing it to recover a lot.
"Hiss, soul-nourishing insects, why do you have two soul-nourishing insects here?" The remnant soul was a little surprised. He sensed the soul-nourishing insects of Bai Yansha and Ning Yuxi.
"My two masters are inside. Due to some problems, their souls entered the bodies of the soul-raising insects..."
Gu Chenyu explained that Bai Yansha and Ning Yuxi's souls were obviously asleep and could not communicate at all.
The remnant soul was moved. It seemed that he had chosen the right person. If he treated someone who valued friendship and loyalty sincerely, he would not be betrayed. He wanted to send a message, but he felt reluctant. He still said, "The two of them are not in good condition, especially one of them. He has been sleeping for more than sixty years, and the method of refining the body is useless."
"what?"
Gu Chenyu's expression changed. He was still thinking about giving Bai Yansha a whole strong body, but he didn't expect that this remnant soul would say it was useless. He was a little anxious, but still asked calmly: "Senior, do you have any other methods?"
The remnant soul had no entity, and shook its head with the body of the soul-raising insect. Gu Chenyu felt cold in his heart, could it be that he could only send the two of them into reincarnation?
"Perhaps you can use the method of reincarnation, but you will have to bear certain consequences. With the cultivation level of a Venerable, saving two people at once will shorten your lifespan by at least a hundred years..."
The life span of a Venerable is only 500 years, but the blessing he cast was so terrifying that one fifth of his life span was directly gone.
"Hiss, it's so scary."
"I don't recommend that you send the Second One to reincarnate when you are at the Venerable Realm. If you achieve the Heavenly Man Realm within ten years, the loss of your lifespan will be reduced, maybe only thirty years." Canhun suggested. He was actually worried that Gu Chenyu would not be able to break through to the Heavenly Man Realm in this lifetime. If his lifespan was shortened by a hundred years, it would naturally have a great impact on his talent.
Gu Chenyu nodded, and then asked about the method of reincarnation. The remnant soul was a little weak, and he was not willing to tell it now, but Gu Chenyu directly transferred the soul power to him, forcing him to tell it.
After some understanding, Gu Chenyu seemed to have learned a strange technique that actually involved the way of heaven. The corners of his mouth slightly raised. Now the old man Bai was saved. It might be possible that he could recover his memory one day in the future.
"Since my friend has already learned this technique, I will sleep with my fellow disciples first."
Gu Chenyu shook his head and led him directly to his dantian. He used his powerful magical powers to condense a place for nurturing the soul in his dantian and invited him to stay there.
"Senior, you have been so kind to me. Naturally, I will not let you down. It is better to be nurtured here than in that cold jade hairpin."
The remnant soul was somewhat moved. This boy was truly someone worthy of trust and reliance.
