Chapter 217 Black Lotus(2/2)
I don't know how long it took, but when Yang Jian opened his eyes again, he saw the physical bodies of himself and the three monsters standing on the shore.
And I was standing on the water a hundred meters away from the shore.
He turned his head and found that the figure was also standing aside, and there were three other silhouettes...
"What did you do?" Yang Jian said.
The figure said: "I just separated your souls. The three souls stayed in your bodies, and the seven souls stayed here."
Yang Jian pointed to the physical bodies and said: "Then how do they act?"
The figure smiled and said: "They will act as they should. Do you think they have no consciousness now?"
Just as he was talking, the bodies suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of the figures in confusion.
Seeing this, the four people on the other side said: "The seven souls have been detained, you can just wait and go..."
"What on earth is going on?!" Yang Jian said.
The outlines of the three monsters on the side also began to stir, and the figure said: "I know this is difficult for you to understand. You have always believed that the consciousness and soul of a living being are bound together and are inseparable.
But, have you ever thought about it, when the soul of your god clan leaves the body, will it be three souls or seven souls?"
Yang Jian was stunned. The soul leaving the body was the secret method of Xuan Gong Heavenly Scroll. It only recorded the soul leaving the body, but did not detail the matter of the soul.
The figure added: "The three souls are the foundation of the spirit, and the seven souls are the foundation of the law.
In layman's terms, the strength of your seven souls determines the level of your magic power, while the strength of your three souls determines the strength of your physical body.
The same is true for consciousness. The three souls are the original self, and the seven souls are the self. The one who listens to me now is you, and the one who controls the advancement of the physical body is also you.
Do you understand?"
Yang Jian seemed to understand what he heard: "Then according to what you said, the few people who are going forward now have lost all their magic power?"
The figure said: "Yes...and no."
"Reconciliation?" Yang Jian asked.
The figure said: "They did lose their own mana, but when I peeled off your souls, I found that you had external power at my disposal.
I don’t know what it is specifically, but this power is enough to keep you safe among those bones.”
"Qitian Demon Flag..." Yang Jian murmured, "Speaking of which, where are you from?"
At this time, the nine-petal black lotus lifted several people and slowly sank into the water. Only in the water did Yang Jian see the face of this figure clearly.
This is the costume of a foot monk, with a bare face without facial features, and a string of skulls hanging on the chest, with a black Buddhist bead in the middle.
What he was wearing was a black cassock with a lotus pattern, and seven black lotus lanterns hung beside him.
The green fire is burning on top, which looks particularly weird in this black water...
“When I was born, I was confused and lonely for a long time. When I became a person, I couldn’t see it. The present moment was nothing.
All living beings seek eternal light, but I seek eternal darkness.
You can understand that I am the shadow of all things, just like the demon is the shadow of God.
I stay here just to see what will happen to these immortal bones..."
"Are you a Buddhist?" Yang Jian asked awkwardly.
The young monk said: "I said that I am the shadow of all things, and the Buddha is also among all things.
I just landed on this pond and couldn't think of anything more suitable to transform into, so I simply decorated it with a pond of black lotus. It was called annihilation."
