Xue Huan shook her head. "Sister Zi Gu, it's not that I didn't want to come in before, it's that I couldn't come in. This time, I can't stay any longer."
After these days of body training, her physical strength has increased a lot, but it is still not enough to match her soul.
The soul world has abundant soul power. Even if she does nothing and just stays here, her soul power will slowly increase. Before her body strength reaches a level that can match her soul, her soul power cannot increase anymore, so she can only stay here for a short while this time.
Zi Gu's expression became serious. "What's going on? Why can't I come in?"
After learning the reason, she was quite amused and confused. So that's how it was. She thought Xiaoxian had encountered something bad in reality.
As a nine-tailed fox demon, her body is naturally stronger than humans. As her strength and realm increase, her body becomes stronger, but the strength of her soul is not enough.
Having stayed in the Soul World for so long, although her soul power continued to increase, it was only barely able to catch up with the strength of her body, so she never had the worry that her body could not accommodate her soul.
She herself hadn't experienced it, but she had heard of many such stories.
"Your problem can be addressed from two aspects: one is to strengthen the body, and the other is to refine the soul. Needless to say, strengthening the body is just like constantly tempering the body like physical training."
Xue Huan nodded, "I've been practicing body-building exercises these days."
"What kind of martial arts are you practicing? I know a few good body-building exercises. I will pass them to you and you can see which one is more suitable for you." Zi Gu operated on the chat interface of the soul card and sent over several martial arts techniques.
Just like transferring a PDF file, Xue Huan felt it was quite strange and felt that there was something wrong with the way it was opened.
But on second thought, cultivating immortals also needs to keep pace with the times. No one stipulates that the skills must be spread through paper books or ancient bamboo and jade slips. Isn't it more convenient and quicker to transmit them with one click like now?
After receiving the technique from Zi Gu, Xue Huan didn't rush to open it. Instead, she asked, "What's going on with soul refining?"
"Soul refining is to train the soul to be more solid. For example, we took a bath with lotus petals a few days ago, which can actually be considered a kind of soul refining. However, there are very few soul refining methods that are comfortable. Most of them are very painful."
Zi Gu taught Xue Huan several ways to refine the soul. From the word "refine", we can know that refining the soul is by no means a simple and easy task. The soul needs to be repeatedly hammered and forged like a weapon.
Xue Huan suddenly thought of the "Soul Flame Art" that she had practiced before. Isn't this exactly a soul refining technique?
She wanted to verify her guess, so she didn't rush out, but followed Zi Gu to her cave, sat down cross-legged on the cushion in the training room, and started practicing her skills.
Although the soul can touch physical objects in the soul world, it is not a physical entity and does not have the meridians and acupoints on the body. The method of cultivation is naturally very different from practicing the "Nirvana Sutra".
But there is also something in common, which is to absorb the soul power floating in the air into the soul body, operate it in a certain way, refine and absorb it, and make it a part of itself.
When you reach a certain level, you need to light a soul lamp in your soul body.
How to ignite it? Xue Huan had previously been very vague about this method of cultivation, and she couldn't do the first step of absorbing soul power because there was no soul power from the outside world for her to absorb.
At that time, she thought that she should devour and absorb those ghosts, but because this method was too evil, she did not put it into practice.
But now that she was in the Soul Realm, she suddenly understood. Soul power was plentiful here, so why worry about not having soul power to absorb?
To put it simply, the soul body is actually a materialized energy body, and soul power and spiritual energy are essentially energy, but one is needed by the soul body and the other acts on the body.
When she started practicing the technique, her soul body turned into a human-shaped magnet, sucking in the surrounding soul power one by one.
Those soul powers did not directly enter her soul body and merge with her, but entered her dantian along a specific route.
There is a small vortex in the Dantian. After the soul power comes in, it is drawn into it and spins in circles. The speed of the vortex spins faster and faster, and finally it looks as if it is still.
At this time, a bit of star-like soul fire appeared in the center of the vortex. This bit of soul fire was insignificant compared to the huge soul power vortex, but although the soul fire was small, its "destructive power" was astonishing.
Soul power is like snow, soul fire is like charcoal.
Although the soul power is powerful, it will be melted instantly once it comes into contact with the soul fire. The melted soul power will be absorbed by the soul fire like smoke, strengthening the soul fire.
The soul fire gradually grew from the size of a star to the size of a grain of rice. When Xue Huan finished her cultivation, the soul fire had become as big as a drop of water.
The white flame seemed gentle and harmless, but Xue Huan knew that this small cluster of soul fire was actually not easy to deal with.
After cultivating the soul fire, he finally got started with the "Soul Flame Art".
The soul body has been refined by the soul fire and is no longer as "fat" as it was at the beginning, but has become much more condensed and pure.
Although she absorbed a lot of soul power during this training, in the end the soul power did not continue to expand, but became smaller than before.
When I returned to my real body, that feeling of being excluded was gone!
You can continue to enter and exit the Soul Realm at will from now on!
Of course, the body training cannot stop. The body, soul power and cultivation must be grasped and improved steadily at the same time.
Although these three are separate, they exist in a unified way, just like the different wooden boards that make up a wooden barrel. No one piece can be too long or too short, otherwise it will affect her overall strength.
However, in order to solve the problem of compatibility between soul and body, she had trained her body quite harshly before. Now that the problem is not so urgent, she can relax.
After all, cultivation requires a balance between relaxation and tension, and being too anxious and tense is not good.
"Let's go make glutinous rice cakes today."
Xue Huan happily took Pei Ji's hand and went out to the vegetable garden.
It is called a vegetable garden, but in fact it is equivalent to a manor. Ingredients can be taken nearby, and all the equipment for processing food is also available. After the food is cooked, it can be directly stored in the warehouse. The key is that the location there is large and spacious, and there are no outsiders, so there is nothing to worry about.
Ciba is a traditional snack here. Every household will make some ciba during the Chinese New Year and save them for later consumption.
One of Xue Huan’s favorite snacks in her previous life was brown sugar rice cake. The rice cake had a slightly crispy outer skin, and when you took a bite of it, it was soft and slightly sticky inside with the brown sugar.
In addition, there are roasted rice cakes, sesame rice cakes, and glutinous rice cakes. They can even be fried or stewed in soup. In short, there are many ways to eat them.
Moreover, glutinous rice cakes have a very long storage time. During the Chinese New Year, you can make hundreds of pounds of them, soak them in water, and eat them whenever you want. They can be eaten for several months.
