Chapter 216: Life-and-Death Crisis Brought by the Breeze

After calming down, Gu Xia made sure that no one would disturb him for the time being.

Finally, he didn't forget to look at the sky and made sure that today was a full moon night and there were no clouds in the sky, so he finally felt relieved.

Gu Xia sat cross-legged on the futon, and her consciousness entered her body.

He was going to try his first out-of-body experience.

The reason why the third realm of soul cultivation is called the night wandering realm is because this realm of soul cultivation condenses the soul and allows the soul to escape from the body and travel at night.

Soul cultivation regards the body as an external object, with the soul as the root and the heart as the foundation.

Therefore, for soul cultivation, leaving the body is an important step on the path of cultivation.

However, the soul body is extremely fragile, and the first time the soul leaves the body is very dangerous, so it must be done with caution.

Therefore, Gu Xia dared to take this step only after returning to Xianfucheng.

The connection between the soul and the body is quite close, and inexperienced soul cultivators need some skills to leave the body.

There are two common out-of-body methods, one is the shock method, and the other is the mind-wandering method.

The shock method refers to the use of fright to make people escape from the soul.

In daily life, people are often frightened to the point of being stunned when they step into the air, are frightened by thunder, or suddenly encounter wild beasts. Some children are even frightened to the point of being stunned for a long time.

It's because the soul was frightened out of the body.

The mind-wandering method, as the name suggests, relies on the inadvertent wandering of the soul and body to leave the body when the person's consciousness is lost.

The frightening method is more suitable for soul cultivation trials involving relatives and friends. After all, it is difficult to scare yourself.

Of course, the shock method can also be used alone, which requires the soul cultivator to have the ability to deceive oneself.

Through repeated and powerful psychological suggestions, the conscious mind is made to believe that it is in extreme danger, and the soul is frightened to the point of leaving the body.

Gu Xia is not good at deceiving himself, so he plans to try the mind-wandering method first, but how can he make himself wander into the world?

He took out a classic that he couldn't read when he was a child - "Hui'an Neo-Confucianism".

Gu Xia opened the book, and it was full of weird sayings such as "preserve the laws of nature and destroy human desires" and "the king is the guide for his ministers, and the father is the guide for his son".

As soon as he turned the page, a sour smell came out, and he immediately began to complain in his heart.

"What are these things written on? It's better what Ya Sheng said."

"Some people make themselves stupid by studying!"

"The most terrifying thing is that such a fool can still live in a temple."

"No, they are not fools. One is better than the other. They did it on purpose..."

Gu Xia kept complaining in her heart, and her attention shifted away from the book unconsciously, and she began to "wander away from the world".

Gradually, his perspective slowly moved up, but he didn't notice it and was still complaining about Su Ru Hui'an's works.

"Wait, what am I going to do?"

Until a certain moment, Gu Xia suddenly remembered his true purpose.

At this time, he discovered that he could already "see" his back from his perspective.

Gu Xia knew that his soul had been displaced, but he had not yet completely separated.

He immediately followed the tips he had read in the book before and mentally visualized himself in a small, dangerous cave.

And Gu Xia tried his best to climb out of the cave.

"I'm going to crawl out!"

The surroundings seemed to have become really crowded, and he was like a person falling into a slit of a glacier, struggling to survive with an abyss beneath his feet.

"ah!!"

Gu Xia shouted loudly in his heart and exerted force on his limbs.

Suddenly, he seemed to have crawled out of some restraints and lay on the ground.

Gu Xia stood up and looked at herself.

"It doesn't seem to be any different..."

He turned around and looked.

I saw another Gu Xia sitting on the futon.

The out-of-body experience was successful.

Gu Xia's spirit walked to the mirror, and sure enough, there was no trace of him in the mirror.

Spirits generally cannot be seen.

He walked towards the wall next to him and stretched out his hand.

Like reaching into a wad of cotton, you can feel the wall but can pass through it easily.

Gu Xia thought to herself: "This is really magical. If the soul is used as a spy, wouldn't it be easy to find out the secrets?

However, I can think of it, and so can others. It is estimated that those Xuanmen have secret methods to prevent the soul from prying. "

Gu Xia walked through the wall again and came to the courtyard.

At this time, the moon and stars were sparse in the sky, and the moonlight shone on the soul.

Suddenly, the ancient summer felt as comfortable as lying in the small courtyard basking in the warm sunshine in the afternoon after autumn.

The moon belongs to Yin, and the essence of the moon is the profound power that most nourishes the soul.

Gu Xia carefully checked the weather before practicing the out-of-body experience, in order to reduce the risk of accidents.

If it happens to be a rainy night, or maybe there is thunder, his fragile soul will be destroyed in an instant.

Gu Xia continued to walk forward, passed through the courtyard wall and came to the empty street.

He wanted to find a passerby and see if he could see him.

Gu Xia is not worried about the distance problem. The soul can leave the body at any distance, unlike the soul force field which has a limited range.

However, there is a limit to the time of leaving the body. After the soul leaves the body, the body will enter a state of dormancy, similar to hibernation, and life activities will be reduced to a minimum.

But if the soul is away for too long, the body will be cut off and the heart will be severed, and it will really die.

At that time, the soul cannot return to the body and will become a "lonely ghost".

Moreover, the soul of the Night Travel Realm is extremely fragile. It is fine if it is illuminated by the moonlight. If there is no moonlight, it will completely dissipate within a few days.

Even if it is nourished by moonlight every night, it will collapse immediately if it encounters thunder, sunlight, or even some evil things.

Fortunately, with Gu Xia's physical strength, hibernating for half an hour would not be life-threatening, so he didn't have to worry much when he went out for a walk on a moonlit night.

But at this moment, I saw the branches and leaves of a tree in front of the door swaying slightly.

There was a slight breeze.

Suddenly, the wind was as sharp as a blade, which made Gu Xia feel painful. It was as if he was trapped in an ice cellar. His whole body was cold and his soul was unstable. He could be blown away by the wind at any time.

He felt as if he had returned to the eight hundred miles of soul refining wind and sand field in the netherworld when he first crossed the calamity.

"Oh no! How could the wind suddenly blow?"

Gu Xia still missed some environmental factors.

He forced himself to walk back.

But the difficulty of each step was like a paralyzed person climbing Mount Everest without help for ten years.

If it weren't for the moon in the sky still protecting Gu Xia's soul, his soul would have been blown away long ago.

After a long time, Gu Xia finally walked into the yard.

"The last few steps, as long as I walk... to the room, I can return..."

The weak soul finally fell at the door, and his body was in the room separated by a wall.

"How could it... end in this way..."

Just when Gu Xia's soul was about to be blown away, the icy and piercing torrent suddenly disappeared.

The wind stopped.

Gu Xia's soul, which was about to collapse, gradually stabilized under the nourishment of the moonlight.

After regaining some strength, he immediately crawled into the room and threw himself into his body.

"Huh!!!"

Gu Xia lay on the ground panting, his heart beating wildly.

He was still in shock.

He didn't expect that he was almost blown to death by a gust of wind.

No wonder the book said that the first time the soul left the body was very dangerous for soul cultivators, because the fragile soul could not withstand the slightest disturbance.
