Chapter 151: Cultivation in the Divine Transformation Stage: Devouring the Soul
During conversation.
Seeing that the spaceship was getting further and further away from the planet-level Unicorn, Xie Shen suddenly asked Li Xiu: "Now that the Huanyan Planet is gone, where will our next destination be?"< br>
“Go to Aldebaran.” Li Xiu replied: “I have already said hello to the humans in the Aldebaran galaxy in advance.”
“We earthlings, plus the magic soil Star people, and Jingchen Star people who haven’t built the spaceship yet.”
"Our three parties will then go to Aldebaran to meet up."
"At that time, our three parties, together with the humans of Aldebaran, will integrate all the technology and resources in our hands."
After hearing Li Xiu's various plans for the future, everyone present felt more or less confident, and their morale was no longer as low as before.
I heard Xie Shen ask again: "I am very curious, what is the specific situation of the humans on Aldebaran?"
"Compared with us, their overall strength is higher Or low? ”
"After we go there, will we still have the right to speak?"
Faced with this doubt, Li Xiu looked thoughtful.
A few seconds later, he responded: "Human beings in the Aldebaran star system live on a planet called Aldebaran c."
"It is a technologically advanced civilization. The technological level of this planet is slightly ahead of ours.”
“But the situation is the same as on the Phantom Planet.”
"Since Aldebaran c has also been contaminated by unspeakable creatures, its development has been greatly restricted."
"The real strength that can be shown must be at least half."
"In addition, among us earthlings, there are two high-end combatants, you and Deng Bin."
"So if there is a conflict, there is a high probability that we will have the upper hand."< br>
“Then again”
In the middle of speaking, Li Xiu suddenly started operating the personal terminal on his wrist.
He turned on the 4D projection function on the terminal.
Next second.
A starry sky map of the Milky Way was then presented to everyone.
Li Xiu pointed to one of the small dots and said: "This is the star system where the planet Aldebaran C is located."
"It is separated from our earth by a total of 65 light years."
said.
He pointed to another small dot in the starry sky map and continued: "Then this place is the star system where the Phantom Star is located."
"That is where our spacecraft is currently located. Location."
"The total distance from here to Aldebaran c is about 43 light years."
"Even if our spacecraft is equipped with a space-time transmission module and can sail in the universe at super-light speed, it will still take at least more than 20 years to arrive."
Left side of Li Xiu.
Deng Bin looked at the star system where Aldebaran c is located, and asked curiously: "It's strange, why are there a total of two suns in the Aldebaran star system?"
Li Xiu said: " This is a very common binary star system in the universe. To put it simply, two suns rotate around a center at the same time. "
"That's a lot of experience." Deng Bin nodded in understanding.
He did not continue to dwell on the matter, but changed the subject and asked Li Xiu.
"By the way."
"I heard from Xie Shen before that his virtualization ability was obtained in the Europa Space Station."
"Since it is used The ability obtained through technological means, can you reproduce it and let me learn to blur it?"
Hearing this, Li Xiu looked thoughtful.
A few seconds later, he suddenly asked Deng Bin: "You should know what muscle memory means, right?"
"Of course I understand this."
Deng Bin said without thinking: "No, it's not What’s wrong with the conditioned reflexes formed through acquired training?”
Li Xiudao: “In fact, in addition to muscle memory, cells also have memory capabilities.”
"This ability is called cellular memory."
He explained: "In fact, as early as the 21st century AD, the medical community has already had the concept of cellular memory."
"For example, patients who have received organ transplants can inherit certain genes."< br>
“You can completely understand it as a conditioned reflex at the cellular level.”
Hearing this, Deng Bin already understood what Li Xiu wanted to express.
He took over the conversation and said: "So what you want to say is that Xie Shen's virtualization ability is completely a conditioned reflex formed by cells."
"This ability is neither genetic modification nor a spell."
"Strictly speaking, this ability is already considered an instinct of Xie Shen."
"So I can't "Re-engrave it."
"Is that what you mean?"
"Yes." Li Xiu nodded and said, "Actually, I also have cellular memory similar to Xie Shen's. ”
"Although I also have various physiological reactions such as pain, hunger, thirst, etc."
"But my brain can selectively ignore these interferences."
"This allows me to When thinking about problems and working, I can achieve 100% efficiency."
"So I will be much stronger than others intellectually."
"This ability cannot be replicated either. ”
"Okay." After listening to Li Xiu's explanation, Deng Bin no longer pressed.
After that, Deng Bin took the opportunity to ask Xie Shen for advice on how to break through the bottleneck of the Nascent Soul Stage and cultivate to the Divine Transformation Stage.
In this regard, Xie Shen did not hide his secrets.
He directly informed Deng Bin of the ‘Butterfly Dream’ technique and various precautions when operating the technique.
…
Interstellar voyages are long and boring.
After obtaining the breakthrough method, Deng Bin went directly to the secret room of the spacecraft to retreat, and several years passed in the blink of an eye.
At the same time.
Li Xiu turned to research on technologies related to mechanical ascension.
He wants to help the brain get a mechanical body.
As for Xie Shen
he also retreated in the secret room of the spaceship, just to break through from the early stage of becoming a god to the later stage as soon as possible.
Normally speaking:
There is no bottleneck for a monk from the early stage of cultivation to the later stage of the same realm, and all the time spent during this period is just a lot of hard work.
This is the case during Qi training period.
The same is true for the Nascent Soul stage.
But after reaching the stage of transformation into gods, this rule does not seem to apply.
——Xie Shen stayed on the Ark spaceship and practiced hard in seclusion for several years, but his cultivation was always stuck in the early stage of becoming a god.
With no choice but to contact Yuanying monk Hu Fanzhi again, he hoped to get help from him.
In the secret room.
Xie Shen sat cross-legged in front of the divine cauldron.
After a certain amount of black mist was poured into the cauldron, a black shadow appeared on the cauldron.
Xie Shen greeted him and said, "Fellow Daoist Hu, I haven't seen you for more than ten years. How are you?"
"Huh??"
After seeing Xie Shen, Hu Fanzhi seemed to sense something.
He exclaimed softly and said in surprise: "Fellow Taoist Xie Shen, have you really made a breakthrough?"
"As you can see."
After Xie Shen responded, he said unabashedly It released an aura that was unique to monks in the transformation stage. Hu Fanzhi was shocked again and said: "Sure enough."
"I can feel that this should be the consciousness of the monks in the transformation stage."
"I really want to know."
He wondered: "Fellow Taoist broke through so fast, didn't he leave any hidden dangers?"
"I'll tell you the truth." Xie Shen explained: "The reason why I was able to break through in such a short time Within a short period of time, I broke through to the divine transformation stage, just because I accidentally chose an indescribable creature as my totem and stole the power of that indescribable creature.”
"Huh??" Hu Fan asked with interest: "How does it work specifically? Can you tell me?"
Xie Shen replied: "You should still remember it, right?"
"When I transformed into a god, didn't I choose a mythical creature named Dream as my totem?"
"Later I learned that the indescribable creature on that planet was also called 'Dream'."
"Perhaps."
Xie Shen guessed: "The one named Meng There is a certain connection between the mythical creature and the indescribable creature 'Dream'."
"It is precisely because of the certain connection between the two that when I and the totem became one. , and somehow stole the power of the indescribable creature 'Dream'."
"Amazing!" Hu Fanzhi exclaimed after hearing this: "I didn't expect that a monk can actually operate like this. I'll give it a try later!"
"This"
Xie Shen reminded kindly.
“If you plan to use my method, then you must pay attention.”
“The act of stealing power can easily be discovered by unspeakable creatures. "
"At that time, it will attack you."
"That blow, based on the strength of us monks in the transformation stage, is simply impossible to dodge."
"I don't understand a little bit." Hu Fanzhi asked: "Since we can't dodge, then fellow Taoist How did you survive in the end?"
Xie Shen replied: "After I was attacked by the unspeakable creature, my whole body fell into pieces on the spot."
"But. Fortunately, I was accidentally infected with a very special curse in my early years."
"That curse can make people immortal."
"Relying on that curse, no matter how many times I was crushed to death, I could always come back to life in the end."
"In this way, the indescribable creature ravaged me for more than a month before giving up. ”
Hu Fanzhi concluded after hearing this.
He said: "So, in order to steal the power of an indescribable creature, does it require immortality?"
Xie Shen added: "It can also be someone else. ”
"However, no matter what kind of defense method is used, the source of power must be indescribable creatures."
"After all, we humans are still too weak."
"The only way to do this is with the help of indescribable creatures. Only with the strength can one compete with another indescribable creature."
"What the fellow Taoist said is absolutely true," Hu Fanzhi responded in agreement.
Xie Shen said again: "Let's get down to business."
"I came to see you Taoist friend this time, mainly because my cultivation level has never increased since my breakthrough."
"So I would like to ask my Taoist friend how to practice as a monk in the transformation stage." Continue to break through to a higher realm? "
The Divine Way Cauldron.
The black shadow transformed by Hu Fanzhi patiently explained: "The practice of monks in the transformation stage is no longer just about pursuing growth in cultivation."
"So just relying on absorbing spiritual power , it is impossible to continue to break through.”
"You have to continue to strengthen your spiritual consciousness."
"Until quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, you can slowly break through from the early stage of spiritual transformation to the later stage."
"Strengthen your spiritual consciousness?" Xie Shen He hurriedly asked: "So what should be done specifically?"
Hu Fanzhi replied: "Don't they all say that what you eat will make up for it."
"People can grow healthy by eating."
"Absorbing spiritual power can increase your cultivation."
"Then the same reason: if you want to strengthen your own consciousness, you naturally have to devour the souls of others."
Ah this
Xie Shen said with a strange expression: "How to swallow it? Just kill the person and then use a secret method to extract the soul?"
"Oh,"
Hu Fanzhi said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist, you are joking."
"The so-called swallowing souls does not mean just grabbing a random person on the roadside."
"You must be in the vast universe, Find someone who is very compatible with your soul."
"And then you can strengthen your consciousness by devouring the souls of these people."
"Soul compatibility?" Shen asked again: "So how can I find someone who is very compatible with my soul."
"There is no need to look for it at all." Hu Fanzhi replied: "A person who is very compatible with your own soul is like a ball of fire in the dark."
"You will naturally be attracted to them."< br>
“So the key to devouring souls is not to search.”
“This is too easy.”
“The really difficult part is how to convince the other party to voluntarily be yours. Devour.”
"What do you mean?" Xie Shen said thoughtfully: "Is it possible that to devour other people's souls, I have to ask for their consent first?"
"You really have to ask for their consent!" Hu Fanzhi said: "The soul is like this The thing is magical."
"If the other party resists, no matter how powerful you are, you can't swallow it up."
Hu Fanzhi finally pointed out the key point.
“So monks in the transformation stage often look for people in the vast universe who are very compatible with their own souls, but are on the verge of death or in desperate situations.”< br>
"After all, you understand."
"The dying people are the easiest to persuade."
"You only need to help them fulfill their dying wish and wait until they have nothing to worry about. , I will naturally give my soul to you voluntarily."
Reasonable.
Hearing this, Xie Shen immediately realized another problem.
He said to Hu Fan: "Didn't you just say that monks in the transformation stage need to find people who are in harmony with their own souls in the vast universe, and then devour them?"
"But the problem is. "
"The universe is so big that it can easily take dozens or even hundreds of years to travel between two different planets."
"Isn't it possible for me to find a way to go there in the Year of the Monkey?"
"Fellow Taoist, have you forgotten?" Hu Fanzhi reminded: "Didn't I teach you a skill called 'Butterfly Dream' before?"
"You can use that technique to travel to other planets through dreams, and then occupy the bodies of dying people."
"This way there is no need to waste time on the way back and forth."
"Of course."
As he said that, Hu Fanzhi suddenly added.
“The principles I told you before, even if you are now in the Divine Transformation Stage, you still have to abide by them.”
"You should still remember the principle, right?"
"Of course I remember." Xie Shen said without hesitation: "Every time you use the 'Butterfly Dream' technique, there must be an interval of at least three years, otherwise it will You will gradually lose yourself.”
“It’s good that you still remember.”
At the end.
Hu Fanzhi sent a jade slip to Xie Shen through the divine tripod.
He warned: "In that jade slip, there is an advanced version of the 'Butterfly Dream' technique. Only monks in the transformation stage can perform it."
"I give it to you."
