Chapter 197 – Second soul


Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “The troublesome thing is, I don’t have a second Primal Energy Water Bead at the moment.”

Swallowed Star Xu Zong: “Ah?”

Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “I used up the Primal Energy Water Bead that Ji Dian sent me a while ago. I just cultivated my second primordial spirit, and currently, my divine soul has only recovered to about eighty percent.”

Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “I’ll go ask the other senior brothers if they have any Primal Energy Water Beads.”

Swallowed Star Xu Zong: “Alright.”

After a while, Xu Zong in the Wildlands came back online.

Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “I just borrowed a Primal Energy Water Bead from Senior Brother Yin Yue. Goodness gracious, it turns out that this thing is worth as much as a top-grade immortal treasure. It’s quite expensive!”

Immediately after, Xu Zong in the Wildlands sent the Primal Energy Water Bead over, choosing the cash on delivery option.

Xu Zong received it, and with a snap, another six thousand points were gone.

Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “By the way, I have to remind you that when using the Second Primordial Spirit Secret Technique, you have to split your soul in two. Each split soul only has half of the original soul’s comprehension, soul strength, and so on. It’s best to prepare treasures for soul recovery.”

Xu Zong with the Dragon Ball: “Do you want some Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva?”

Swallowed Star Xu Zong: “Where did you get it?”

Xu Zong from Battle Through the Heavens: “I found it in the Magic Beast Mountain Range. Considering that I will also need to split my soul in the future, I went to find a Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva plant and gave it to Xu Zong with the Dragon Ball. He used the divine dragon there to plant a lot of Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva.”

Xu Zong with the Dragon Ball: “To be precise, I planted an entire planet with Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva.”

Swallowed Star Xu Zong: “6!”

Swallowed Star Xu Zong: “Give me two!”

Xu Zong with the Dragon Ball: “Sure.”

Xu Zong in the Wildlands: “You have Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva? Why didn’t you say so earlier? Give me two as well!”

Xu Zong with the Dragon Ball: “You didn’t mention that you cultivated the second primordial spirit in the group, how would I know you needed it?”

After a while, several Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva plants were sent to the two Xu Zongs respectively.

These Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva plants were quite cheap, only 200 points to send one.

In the Devouring World, on the White Orchid Star.

Xu Zong landed in the castle, returned to his room, locked the door, and then took out the Primal Energy Water Bead and the two Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva plants.

The Primal Energy Water Bead was a pearl emitting a watery light, with a natural space inside that was similar to the Purple Mansion. It was very suitable for storing and nurturing a person’s soul.

Once a person’s soul lost its physical body, it would become like a rootless duckweed and quickly dissipate. It must have a special vessel to store the soul in order to cultivate the second primordial spirit.

Xu Zong reviewed the Second Primordial Spirit Secret Technique in his mind.

This Second Primordial Spirit Secret Technique was actually very dangerous. It required splitting a person’s soul in two. If the soul was not strong enough, there would be a risk of soul dispersal. Therefore, usually only those with extremely strong divine souls could cultivate the Second Primordial Spirit Secret Technique.

Xu Zong didn’t know what the standard for his soul was in the Wildlands era, but he had two Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva plants, which could restore his soul at any time and eliminate the danger to his life. That’s why he planned to give it a try.

“Let’s begin!”

Xu Zong took a deep breath and entered his mind.

He had a lot of money on him, so he also bought many treasures to enhance his spiritual power. While breaking through to the Cosmic level with the Genetic Primal Energy, his spiritual power also broke through to the Cosmic level. There was a nebula in his sea of consciousness, and many miniature planets naturally formed a huge vortex galaxy. There were also eight spiral arms around it, and at the core of this galaxy, there was an extremely tiny black hole.

This was the first level of Cosmic spiritual power. Because he had just broken through, he hadn’t had time to cultivate it yet. However, what he needed to do now was not to separate his spiritual power, but to separate his soul into substance.

Xu Zong performed the Second Primordial Spirit Secret Technique. Suddenly, his entire sea of consciousness trembled violently, and the nebula and galaxy were shaking rapidly, as if they could collapse at any moment.

Xu Zong gritted his teeth and remained steadfast, continuing to maintain the secret technique. A beam of light radiated from the core of the galaxy, and his will pierced into it like a knife, tearing the core apart.

“Ugh!”

A sudden intense pain attacked his brain. This pain of tearing the soul apart made even his will groan, and he was sweating profusely.

Xu Zong clenched his teeth, firmly maintaining the secret technique without wavering. The core of the galaxy cracked from top to bottom, and an extremely weak soul flew out from it, directly leaving his body.

At the moment of the soul’s separation, Xu Zong suddenly felt dizzy, and an unprecedented sense of weakness rushed over him, making him wish to fall asleep on the spot.

Xu Zong quickly swallowed the Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva liquid that had been refined with Genetic Primal Energy. As soon as the liquid entered his body, it turned into a pure force that surged towards his sea of consciousness and entered the core of the vortex galaxy, healing the soul’s injuries.

On the other hand, the soul that flew out of his body without a vessel became unstable and seemed to be on the verge of disappearing at any moment. The half of the soul didn’t dare to neglect and quickly entered the Primal Energy Water Bead in his hand. In the moment it entered the bead, this half of the soul immediately felt as if it had returned home, becoming extremely peaceful. A warm feeling filled his divine soul.Xu Zong dripped another portion of the spirit liquid, which was smelted with Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, onto a Primal Water Bead. The half of the soul within the Primal Water Bead seemed to be revitalized like a parched land receiving rain, a comfortable feeling spontaneously emerged, and the soul visibly grew stronger.

“Phew, I guess this is a success?”

Xu Zong looked at the Primal Water Bead in his hand, and the bead seemed to have gained consciousness, “looking” back at Xu Zong. Their memories were completely shared, their senses were shared, they were essentially one entity, like a left and right hand, without any sense of awkwardness.

Under the nourishment of the Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, the two weakened souls grew stronger together.

He asked the Dragon Pearl for a few more strands of Seven Illusion Green Spirit Saliva, and two days later, the weakened souls were fully recovered.

Soon, a thick mist rippled on the surface of the Primal Water Bead, which then transformed into a figure of Xu Zong dressed in black battle armor.

The two Xu Zongs looked at each other, clearly the same person, but with two perspectives, and could clearly see their own figures, which was quite interesting.

“Unfortunately, the second soul formed by this Primal Water Bead can only cultivate Qi, not the body.”

Xu Zong sighed inwardly.

After all, the Primal Water Bead was just a natural treasure. The bead itself was the Dantian of the second soul, which had no body, so it could only be used to cultivate Qi. Therefore, the second soul could not practice body-cultivating divine techniques like the Eight-Nine Profound Art. Compared to the “clone” Secret Technique of the Swallowed Star world, there was still a significant gap.

However, things like mental power and psychic energy, the second soul could still cultivate.

Moreover, with two Xu Zongs, the speed of comprehension of the laws would inevitably greatly increase.

“The second soul formed by this Primal Water Bead is a natural water attribute body. If the second soul comprehends the laws of water, it should be able to get started quickly.”

Xu Zong was in a very good mood. Regardless, the successful cultivation of the second soul was a great thing that was all advantages and no disadvantages for him.

“Well, let’s first improve the cultivation of the second soul.”

Xu Zong stretched out his hand and simply put the second soul into his ring.

This ring was not a space ring, but a world ring that only domain masters would use. As the name suggests, it contained a world inside. Unlike a space ring, this world ring could even store living people!

This kind of ring could be made by a domain master, because a domain master could use the power of the endless universe to form a universe crystal, which could be used to expand the world ring. It was not only easy to do, but also had a large range and was cheap.

A world ring with a diameter of 100 million kilometers could be obtained for just 10 mixed elements.

A world ring with a diameter of 100 billion kilometers was very expensive, and it couldn’t be obtained without millions of mixed elements.

A world ring with a diameter of a trillion kilometers was even more outrageously expensive, and it would take at least trillions of mixed elements to buy.

Of course, there were also some small and medium-sized world rings, those with a radius of only tens of thousands of kilometers. The price was slightly lower, but it still required 1 mixed element to buy.

Five years ago, after Xu Zong received a large amount of mixed element rewards from the Qian Witch Country Master, he immediately bought a world ring with a diameter of about 100 million kilometers, which cost him 10 mixed elements.

Inside this world ring, there were not only many primal energy weapons and psychic weapons, but also many resources for cultivating primal energy and psychic energy, as well as things like gravity rooms and castles.

And in the center of this world ring, there was a sphere with a diameter of over 800 meters. Its surface was pitted, and it was emitting a lot of poisonous gas, which looked very dangerous.

The second soul entered it and immediately used a large amount of psychic resources to quickly accumulate its psychic power to the cosmic level.

He also tried to cultivate primal energy. He could cultivate it, and the primal energy would gather in the Dantian after entering the body, but it could not be used to strengthen the body formed by the Primal Water Bead.

“It feels like I’ve become an energy life form.”

Xu Zong muttered to himself.

In the Swallowed Star world, there were countless types of life, and one of them was called energy life. They had no body, but they had a life crystal core. Becoming stronger meant cultivating the crystal core. For example, Luo Feng’s second clone, the Demon Slayer Clan, was an energy life form. This Primal Water Bead felt like it had become a different kind of crystal core, just without the peculiar secret patterns.

A thought struck Xu Zong. He was a secret pattern master, and he could even engrave secret patterns on his own body. Although he had neglected this for a long time, if he mastered high-level secret patterns in the future and engraved them on the Primal Water Bead, wouldn’t the second soul become a proper energy life form?

However, whether this could be achieved was still unknown. All he could say was, it was worth a try.

Inside the world ring, the second soul Xu Zong finished his cultivation and looked at the huge insect nest in the distance, pondering.

“This domain master level insect nest, usually requires at least the third level of the Ten Thousand Heart Control Soul Secret Technique to possibly control it with the soul. I am now only at the cosmic level, but I have mental power and the talent for hypnosis. I wonder if I can give it a try?”
