Chapter 1103 Recasting the Soul

Enduring the pain by force, Zhou Shu didn't make a sound, his expression froze, as if he had realized something.

"Is that so?"

His soul is extremely tenacious, even if it enters Wushuang City, it is impossible to break, but the fact is that it happened, and it is absolutely true. He can feel that his lost soul has gone away and will never return. , and with the almost unbearable pain, he can almost be sure that when he was here, he was deprived of everything related to the soul, and all the effects of previous cultivation were gone. At this time, he only has the soul, which is no different from ordinary people .

He had a similar experience before, but the spiritual power and so on were taken away, but what was taken away here was the god of the soul, leaving only the original soul, and all the outer protections were removed.

Maybe it's the formation, maybe it's something else, but the result is clear and unmistakable.

Looking at the severed arm beside him, Zhou Shu couldn't help but smile wryly, "I lost my arm right after I came in, and what's interesting is that it happened to be the part that could go out. God's will, it seems destined to go out. "

Looking around, I don't know which floor of the tower it is, but the space is not big, and the exit is tens of feet away, so it doesn't seem difficult to walk.

Without consciousness, he couldn't feel anything around him, so Zhou Shu didn't think too much about it, and walked towards the exit.

As soon as he took a step, countless flames sprang up from the ground, and spread instantly. Except for the place where he was standing, the rest of the place was surrounded by flames, turning into a sea of ​​flames.

"ah!"

This time Zhou Shu couldn't hold back and let out a miserable cry.

Although he retracted his foot very quickly, it had already been burned by the scorching flames, and his right foot was suddenly black, emitting an unpleasant burnt smell.

Here, the pain suffered by the soul is much more than that suffered by the outside world. Not only the physical pain can be seen and felt, but the undefended soul also suffers similar pain, which goes straight to the bottom of the heart naked. .

Looking at the exit that was only tens of feet away, Zhou Shu hesitated, "Here, can we go there?"

Although the fire in the sea of ​​fire seemed to be no more than the second level, and the distance was not far away, but at this moment he was just a mortal soul.

The top of the nine-story tower.

Two figures suddenly appeared and stopped in front of Bailong.

At this time, Bailong didn't use the black mist to cover his body, and his appearance was completely revealed. It was an unusually handsome man, looking at Zhou Shu in the tower coldly, without a trace of expression on his face.

"Go in?"

Qing Que glanced along, with a lot of worry in her eyes, "Ah, it's already broken."

"That's for sure. No one has ever been able to enter the nine-story tower intact. Only one hand is broken."

The city lord nodded, "It seems that his luck is good, but the fire sea floor is very simple in the lower nine floors."

"Is it easy?"

Qingque shook his head, "He is just an incarnation of soul, not a divine soul, without any means of defense, and he is not strong enough to endure much pain. Once the pain exceeds the limit, he can only die, and it is true death, the soul that came in will completely perish."

As she said that, she became a little excited, "City Master, to be honest, I really don't understand this, why do you want to turn a cultivator into a mortal, and then test it again, you must know that a cultivator has nothing to do with mortals after he escapes from the mortal, this This method is superfluous, why not give the test directly, wouldn't it be better for the cultivators to use their abilities and use various spells to pass the test?"

The city lord showed a bit of dignity, "You are right, it should be the case for most immortal cultivators, but Zhou Shu is different, he has a lot of burdens, and we have to demand more from him. This nine-story pagoda is for him. One is open."

"But what's the benefit of that?"

Qing Que was a little puzzled, "He has already lost a part of his soul, not only is it not beneficial to him, but the loss is not small, and even if he gains something, when he returns from a mortal soul and returns to his original state, it doesn't mean that he has gained nothing Is it?"

"Will not."

The city lord shook his head, "The benefits are great. If he can pass this tower, it means that he can break through the limit of the soul, and the soul has reached a higher level. Even if he leaves the nine-story tower, this will not change. Simple It is said that the nine-story pagoda is to recast the soul, and the purpose is to improve the initial qualification of his soul."

Qingque seems to have realized something, "Initial qualification?"

"right."

The city lord nodded seriously, "Everyone's body has an initial aptitude, which is manifested in the purity of the spiritual root, the degree of opening of the Qi veins, whether there is a special blood, etc. The initial aptitude is destined by nature, but it can also be changed the day after tomorrow. Panacea and miraculous medicine, etc., you also understand these, and the soul also has initial aptitude, strong and weak, but unlike the body, the initial aptitude of the soul is difficult to change the day after tomorrow."

Qing Que wondered, "Aren't there many formulas and spiritual objects to increase the soul and consciousness?"

The city lord shook his head slightly, "You also said that what grows is the soul, not the soul. The soul and the soul are different. One is destined by nature, and the other is acquired through cultivation."

Qing Que hurriedly said, "I made a mistake, so is the improvement of the soul beneficial?"

The city lord nodded solemnly, "Of course, for the soul, even a slight improvement in aptitude will greatly benefit the soul. The so-called mortals have a soul, and monks have a bunch of gods, that's it."

Qingque was surprised, "It's so big..."

The city lord glanced at Zhou Shu below, and said slowly, "Yes, but it is extremely difficult to recast the soul and improve the initial qualification of the soul."

According to ancient legends, the souls of mortals, after being tortured in the 18th underground hell, are reincarnated, and the souls born are of different grades. The more hells they have experienced, the stronger and stronger the soul will be. Eight layers of hell, it is even possible to generate a natural soul, which can be regarded as the best talent for cultivating immortals. Of course, this is just a legendary thing, but the city lord built a nine-story tower in Wushuang City, turning the legend into reality. Suffering, the more tower layers you pass through, the more growth your soul can get. Recasting your soul will improve your initial aptitude, which is not good. After you get out of the tower, your soul will benefit from it. qualitative improvement.

Of course, that is the result of passing through the nine-story pagoda. If it cannot pass, the soul will be annihilated in the pagoda and disappear.

For Zhou Shu, he will lose this ray of soul, although it is not much, but it will inevitably affect the future fusion, and the possibility of being promoted to the Tribulation Realm will be greatly reduced.

After listening to the city lord's explanation, Qingque murmured, "If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent. If he can't get out, the city lord and our hope will be gone. You should explain to him first."

"The moment he entered the tower, I think he understood."

The city lord said calmly, "If he passes, he will naturally get great benefits, and our chances will be even greater. If he chooses to be with us, and we recognize him, then he will have to go through the process of recasting his soul." You know, he is not a body of hundreds of souls like you, although he is very talented in the soul, but his initial aptitude is still a bit weaker."

Qing Que looked at Zhou Shu with heavy eyes, "Oh."
