Chapter 2950 Book of Order
The doppelgänger is not a real life.
They are just a ray of thought that exists depending on the body.
Although he knew this fact, Zheng Qing couldn't help but ask when he saw the gem cracking: "Sir, in the future, when I use forbidden spells, I can only 'sacrifice' myself...or a clone of myself? Is this? The price of using the forbidden spell?"
"Of course not."
The teacher gave a very clear negative answer: "It's just that your cultivation is limited now, and your understanding of the forbidden curse is not perfect enough. The so-called 'self-destruction' is essentially your forced interpretation of the forbidden curse. In other words, you passed' Dissociate yourself and forcibly release the forbidden curse that is one with you... In the future, after you improve your cultivation and understand the world more deeply, using the forbidden curse will not be so simple and crude. "
These words comforted the young wizard a little.
But he was still a little unsatisfied: "Can other 'sacrifice' be used? I mean, other than 'blow me up', is there any other way to activate this forbidden spell?"
The gentleman looked at the French book in his hand. Perhaps because of absorbing a clone spirit, the original milky white cover bloomed with a faint light. At the same time, Zheng Qing also felt a faint hunger from the book. It seemed that the spiritual power provided by the black gem cats just now was not enough. Satisfy its appetite.
"Theoretically there is."
This time, the husband's answer was not so sure: "As long as your Dharma book does not reject it and is willing to 'eat' it, then if you sacrifice other souls that are powerful enough, you can also release the forbidden curse... After all, this Dharma book is now It already contains enough forbidden spells, but I doubt you can hunt powerful enough souls to sacrifice to it. From another perspective, I don’t really agree with you using other souls.”
"Why?"
"Two reasons."
The gentleman unbuttoned the buckle and calmly flipped through the Dharma book in his hand. He seemed to be checking whether the automatically generated spells in the book were qualified. At the same time, he was still answering the boy's confusion slowly:
"... First, other souls may contaminate your Dharma book, especially many powerful wizards who have more or less contact with knowledge from the stars. That knowledge is poisonous. Your Dharma book is contaminated by the stars. This forbidden spell Some of the details may be known to the stars, which is not a good thing for you. Secondly, it is easy for a wizard of your age. Being disturbed by the outside world and giving rise to distracting thoughts...or, in the words of old-school wizards, can be called 'demon thoughts', which will hinder your practice, and the clone transformation technique can reduce the related risks. After the clone, you can take away some of the distracting thoughts in your heart, and these distracting thoughts will be completely killed when the clone is annihilated..."
"Then after I released the clone transformation, didn't those evil thoughts come back to me?" Zheng Qing immediately noticed some inappropriate details in his husband's answer.
"Very sharp."
The teacher's eyes left the Dharma book and glanced at Zheng Qing with satisfaction: "After the deformation of the clone, those distracting thoughts will indeed come back. But after you use it again, more distracting thoughts will be taken away. I remember you took the elective this year I’ve studied occult science, and there’s a ‘mysterious aggregation principle’ in it. Do you still have any impressions?”
The boy nodded repeatedly and was about to speak, but the gentleman didn't give him a chance.
"——The wizard's 'distracted thoughts' will also follow this principle."
The teacher lowered his head to read the Dharma book again, and spoke slightly faster: "There is a clear distinction between pure thoughts and distracting thoughts in everyone's soul, but they are usually like a glass of turbid water, mixed together. When you successfully separate After the first trace of distracting thoughts comes out, the distracting thoughts that come into contact with the vitality of heaven and earth will become It grows stronger than other distracting thoughts. Therefore, when it returns to the wizard's body, other distracting thoughts will be attracted to it according to the principle of 'aggregation'. If this is repeated many times, more and more distracting thoughts will gather, and the clone's spirituality will become stronger. Until the end, a clone will be born with the idea of 'autonomy'..."
Zheng Qing subconsciously glanced at the cyan alien dragon happily playing ball on the edge of the grotto.
"——So, clone is a very dangerous type of magic."
The teacher seemed unaware, and his tone did not waver at all: "In ancient times, some wizards specialized in cultivating their bodies, absorbing the demonic thoughts that were born in the original body, and then cutting them off when they were fully realized, in order to achieve a perfect state of mind. But this way is very special. Sinister, slightly less so Shen, the clone filled with distracting thoughts will backfire on the main body and occupy the magpie's nest, so now more wizards choose to keep the distracting thoughts in themselves, so that they can be controlled nearby... I remember you saw Professor Yao. Real body, right?"
Zheng Qing nodded slightly.
That giant ape with three heads and eight arms had left a very deep impression on him on the Black Prison battlefield. A few days ago, when the sun was stolen over Phuket Island, he had seen the true form appearing on the horizon.
"——Professor Yao's 'Three Songs' are generated by separating distracting thoughts." The teacher nodded slightly: "It's just that his situation is more complicated, so the status of the Three Songs is a little bit special."
"Will the clone transformation technique we practice also have backlash?" Zheng Qing raised his hand cautiously.
The teacher raised his eyelids, glanced at him, and snorted: "The Jiang family in Zhongshan has a profound background. You don't need to worry about classmate Jiang Yu making mistakes in this kind of thing... As for you, I have this Dharma book to consume for you. I just worry about your daily life If you recite too little, you won't be able to form a clone in the future. Well, judging from your indecisive character, there should be a lot of distracting thoughts... Yes, the mantra in the book is very clear and complete enough. Now I need a little introduction. …”
As he spoke, he grabbed Zheng Qing's arm and shook it gently.
A few drops of bright red blood oozed out from Zheng Qing's fingers and dripped onto the cover of the book. The blood-red color was particularly dazzling on the milky white cover. In just a moment, it spread and seeped into the book.
Do spirits also have blood?
Zheng Qing was suspicious of his own state, silently retracted his fingers, and looked at the wound, but saw that the skin was as smooth as before, without any trace of injury.
As the blood color dissipated, four tadpole-like small characters slowly swam out of a blank space, and finally stopped in the center of the cover, connecting head and tail, which seemed very regular.
Book of Order.
Zheng Qing whispered the four words he didn't know, and after reading them, he suddenly came back to his senses and realized what he had just done.
"Are you ready?"
The gentleman did not give him more opportunities to ask questions. He supported Zheng Qing's shoulders and raised his legs. Just as he was about to step out of this frozen space and time, he suddenly stopped and looked back at the boy: "- Well, finally, I need to remind you."
He shook the book in his hand: "This book has different effects when I use it than when you use it... So, what I can do, you may not be able to do. I hope I won't cause you unnecessary psychological burden in the future."
