Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

During the process of breaking through to the Lantern, everything seemed calm except for a shadow emerging behind him. Even Sally who was sleeping in the cave was not awakened.

However, the changes that took place in Gu Xing's body were not simple.

Needless to say, the changes in true Qi.

Every time you break through a realm, whether it is a big realm or a small realm, the quality of your true Qi will improve.

This is not just a change from gas to liquid, but more of an increase in its essential strength.

To describe it in metaphorical terms, the change from practicing Qigong to lighting lamps is basically the change from water to liquid mercury.

Ignoring their essential differences, both of them are much stronger in terms of quality and power.

In addition to true Qi, physical strength also grows to a certain extent.

However, compared with Gu Xing's own physique, he did not take this growth seriously.

Changes in true Qi and physique occur with every breakthrough, so it is naturally not difficult.

What made Gu Xing feel extraordinary was that when he lit the candle, he could feel the existence of the soul.

It was a very strange feeling, as if there was another person in his body, but he clearly understood that it was actually himself.

Moreover, this state only appears when he lights a candle.

Once he extinguished the candle or made it dim, this feeling disappeared.

After Gu Xing thought about it for a while, he understood that this was probably the special feature of Ran Deng.

Light a candle and reflect yourself.

Thinking carefully about the current path of cultivation, the initial body training focuses on the physical body, which paves the way for cultivation.

From the breakthrough of body building to Qi training, and then to inner palace, it is basically about the cultivation of true Qi.

As for now, when it comes to Randang, it seems that what is being focused on is the spirit and soul.

The body is the foundation, the true qi is the support, and the soul should be the step to a higher level.

Gu Xing thought about it and had a new understanding in his mind.

At the same time, he was also studying the practice of the Burning Lamp realm.

Different from all the previous practices, in the Lighting Lamp Realm, if one wants to continue lighting the remaining two candles, one needs a stronger soul.

How can the soul become stronger?

Apart from some rare treasures, the simplest method is to use one's own candlelight to burn the soul.

This method may seem like self-mutilation, but in fact it is a method of breaking down and then building up again.

Through appropriate amount of loss, and then use appropriate methods to make it recover quickly.

In this way, in the end, the soul will slowly grow and condense.

Such a method is naturally extremely dangerous, so it requires the assistance of exercises.

A good technique can reduce the damage caused by the candle flame burning the soul, and can also allow the soul to recover more quickly.

The Water Controlling Technique does not have much effect in reducing damage, but it has extraordinary effects in restoring the soul.

After all, the attribute of water gives people a feeling of gentleness and softness. When it falls here, it can also soothe the soul and produce a healing effect.

However, the corresponding methods also require some practice.

Therefore, before practicing to the level of Burning Lamp, Gu Xing had to carefully study the thick brick given by Qingyue.

This study lasted another day.

A day passed, and after trying some practice, Gu Xing finally opened his eyes.

He first got some food to eat with Sally, and then he began to carefully feel the changes in his soul.

The spirit includes consciousness, mind and soul, and in the realm of burning lamps, the main thing to cultivate is the soul.

When the soul is strong, the conscious mind will also be strong.

Gu Xing didn't quite understand this aspect, but as he practiced, he also tried to let the female merman attack him through mental attacks, and then he found that the intensity of consciousness had indeed increased.

However, Randang's practice was too much, and any carelessness would hurt his soul and leave wounds that would be difficult to heal.

Therefore, Gu Xing stopped after just a brief practice, and then continued to use the Water Controlling Spirit Technique to nourish his soul.

And only after his soul has fully recovered, he will start spiritual practice again.

During the process of soul recovery, Gu Xing's combat effectiveness actually decreased.

After all, the soul involves a lot, and even just a slight damage will make Gu Xing feel a throbbing in his body from time to time.

However, as long as he doesn't encounter an enemy that is good at spiritual attacks, Gu Xing doesn't care about this decrease in combat effectiveness.

When he thought of the soul attack, Gu Xing thought of the phantom water shield again.

His practice of the Phantom Water Shield was not slow, but even now, he still had not cultivated it to perfection and could not use it without restraint.

Therefore, until now, the permanent defense in his consciousness was just a few layers of Green Lotus Platform.

But there is an upper limit to the stacking, so in Gu Xing's opinion, its defense is already somewhat insufficient.

I have to find a way to strengthen the defense of my soul, he thought.

However, where can one obtain defensive Taoist magic in this deserted wilderness?

However, even without Taoist magic, strange weapons will do.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his consciousness to the female fishman in the strange book.

The female merman launched a mental attack without authorization. Based on Gu Xing's many... months of experience in refining equipment, there is a high probability that the abilities that the weird ones are good at will appear on the weird equipment refined using the materials on them.

This was the case with the Gluttonous Bunny and the Rage Necklace as well.

However, after thinking about it, Gu Xing gave up the idea of ​​dismembering the female merman.

There aren't many strange slaves in his ghost book, and the female merman is the most useful one. Whether it's for digging adventures, being cannon fodder, or doing all kinds of hard labor, she's a very suitable choice.

It’s better to pay more attention on the road and see if there are any suitable monsters to kill and obtain materials.

After resting for a while, Gu Xing took Sally out of the cave.

No one knew where the huge monster lying in the valley had gone.

So, Gu Xing did not take a detour, but went into the water, used water escape, and continued to move south.

Perhaps it was luck that favored Gu Xing, for on the way he actually encountered a group of monsters who were good at soul attacks.

【Pure Will-O'-the-Wisp】

[Illusive and weird]

[After a living being dies, the remaining consciousness is transformed into something that likes to devour souls in order to grow itself.]

【none】

These ghostly ghost fires actually look like wisps of floating blue flames. They like to gather together in a group. When they encounter a living creature, they will rush over in a group and then devour the soul in its body.

In fact, ordinary ghost fires are not very strong, but Gu Xing saw a few ghost fires that were faintly condensed into entities. Their strength had reached the evil level, and was even faintly close to the violent level.

If it were an ordinary Ran Deng, such a group of weirdos would naturally be difficult to deal with.

But Gu Xing summoned out the river, and soon suppressed them all to death.

Although they are imaginary and strange, they are difficult to deal with by ordinary means.

But the river is not a normal body of water, and its power can fall on these monsters.

Therefore, Gu Xing seized the opportunity to ambush them and killed them by using the river before they launched an attack.

Ordinary ghost fires are just illusory forms and do not drop anything.

However, after death, several powerful and quiet ghost fires left behind a few faint flames for Gu Xing.
