"This is……"

 The trance in Qiu Yan's heart had dissipated, and he was immediately startled.

 "What's going on?"

 He felt a part of himself floating lightly in the air, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that it was the clone's soul floating above his head.

 The clone in question is actually not much different from the original deity. It is equivalent to two sides of the same body. Apart from the connection of consciousness, there is no deep connection. At this moment, in the perception of the clone, it is hazy, floating, and suspected of being in a dream. .

 Looking down, you can see a huge figure sitting cross-legged, it is his scholar clone.

 "Those three vellus hairs are indeed extraordinary, they actually became one!"

 He was secretly surprised. Although Qiu Yan had never been exposed to the power of this world and did not know the magical effects of avatars, he had possessed clay sculptures for decades. Although he was trapped in the temple, he thought about it every day and still had some general concepts. of.

 The so-called clone is mostly a part of consciousness that is separated and attached to other things. It does not contain a soul. However, Qiu Yan used the power of hair to inherit Qiu Yan's body and actually gave birth to three souls and seven souls.

 Now flying out from the head of the flesh and blood body is the original soul, which is formless and without quality. Commonly known as the living soul, it is actually the three souls that have not yet condensed. They seem to be one, but in fact they are muddy and pull each other, which limits the development of the soul. It is affected by all things in the world and the body. Limitations must not be exceeded.

 "Humans have three souls, each with their own magical uses. The purpose of practicing the Tao of Sexuality Cultivation is to make the three souls clearly manifest and then condense them so that they will no longer be lumped together and sink into the world. But my clone can really have a soul out of the body. It's really It’s surprising.”

 Although he had already speculated that one of the purposes of practicing "The Secret of the Sleeping God" was actually to try and verify it, but it really happened. Qiu Yan was still in a state of excitement. Of course he understood what it meant.

 "No wonder neither the land in the south of the city nor the city god can see the connection between the clone and the main body, because apart from being connected to my consciousness and having two bodies and one mind, this clone is no different from ordinary people! It can also practice! The main body and the clone are equal to each other. They are two individuals, only their consciousness is connected by a mysterious method. Of course, no one can see the connection. At most, they are somewhat involved at the causal level. "

 "I am a god, and my path has been limited. I can only advance in the divine way. I can be free and free to try other paths. I can choose regardless of my life path."

 "I wonder if the clone will have any impact on the main body if it achieves something. Also, the black hole under the core talisman was formed when it inherited the flesh and blood clone, but no changes were seen. I wonder if the clone will be able to cultivate after it has succeeded. Will there be any changes? As for the remaining two hairs, there is no rush."

 Thinking like this, Qiu Yan was suddenly startled and felt a chill on the soul of the clone that had left his body.

 It was a cold feeling coming from the soul, and then the separated soul gradually disintegrated as the air flow changed, and was about to disperse.

 "No! Without the restraints of the body, the living soul is going to scatter!"

 The living soul is actually a hodgepodge, with three souls mixed in it. Normally, it lives in the body and is blocked and oppressed by the yang energy of the body and flesh. Of course, it gathers together. But once it comes out of the body, without this layer of restraint, it will take a little time to It spreads with the air and breeze, becomes thinner and thinner, and finally falls apart until it dissipates in the air.

 Qiu Yan tried to practice it as soon as he got "The Secret of the Sleeping God". He didn't understand the taboos of the way of sexual cultivation. It was because the spirit was divided into two parts in one step. Now the soul is separated from the body and fell into this situation. Once the soul is born, Complete dispersion means that the consciousness of the flesh and blood clone no longer exists, and the physical body becomes an empty shell, a vegetative state in the previous life. In this world, it is called "soul separation syndrome".

 Not only that, because of the rising cold and the thinning of the living soul, Qiu Yan's consciousness found it difficult to control the direction and could not return!

 At this moment, a light flashed, and a figure appeared on the table. It was the deity himself. The deity flicked his sleeves, and a starlight shot out from his fingertips, wrapping the living soul hanging above the clone's head.

 Immediately, the living souls that were already on the verge of disintegration were shaken. The speed of dispersion suddenly slowed down, but it did not stop. There was a vague intention of continuing to disperse through the barrier of the divine light.

 "This soul is so mysterious that not even divine power can isolate it."

 With a sigh, I waved my sleeve again and threw out a cloud of smoke. The smoke went straight to the living soul and blended into it.

 This cloud of smoke was the calming incense given to him by the Lord of the City.

 The next moment, a quiet and peaceful atmosphere spread in the living soul, and the smoke gradually became one with the soul. The clear sound of reading came from it, with the same tone as Qiu Yan.

 Deep in the soul, the past memories flow like water, but they are the scenes of studying hard in the lonely window in the past. The words in the book that are memorized in the heart flow out, driven by the smoke, infecting every part of the soul.

 grow!

 The originally weak and fragile living soul became a bit stronger after integrating a sentence of literature and science.

 "What's going on? This smoke first stabilizes the living soul, and then mobilizes the poems and strategies in the memory to make the living soul stronger? Can reading also strengthen the soul?"

 With the help of the calming incense, the living soul finally settled down, stopped spreading, and grew a bit stronger. It gave Qiu Yan the feeling like a drowning person suddenly had an extra swimming ring and was no longer at a loss.

 At this moment, a heat wave came from all around, squeezing the living soul. The whole soul seemed to be thrown into the beating flames in an instant, and the heat was unbearable.

 The spirit turned his head and looked out the window. He saw red light coming from the horizon and a thin purple mist filling the sky in the distance.

 "When the sun rises, this book repeatedly emphasizes that the living soul is most afraid of sunlight and strong qi and blood. Now just a trace of sunlight makes me feel like a burning fire. If the sun rises, I am afraid that I will be burned directly. evaporated."

 While thinking in his mind, Qiu Yan turned his mind to let his soul return to its shell. However, when his soul moved, it was blocked by the air and floated, making it difficult to return.

 "Good guy, the soul-regenerating power is weak and can't even break through the air. The soul-regenerating body leaving the body is really a troublesome thing. If you are not fully prepared, it will be a narrow escape."

 Thinking like this, the divine light wrapped around the living soul flows like water, pushing the living soul back to the heavenly spirit, and finally integrates into the body.

 Then, the scholar's clone opened its eyes, and the spirit returned to the scroll with respect.

 After taking a deep breath, Qiu Yan was about to stand up. Unexpectedly, his body softened and he lay down directly. Then he felt his face getting hot.

 "This was the first time that the soul came out of the body. First it almost collapsed, and then it was exposed to a ray of sunlight. In the end, it left sequelae. It seemed to be a fever."

 Not long after, Liu Yue, who got up early, noticed something strange about Qiu Yan, and the family immediately became busy, fetching water and taking medicine.

 "There are guests coming to the house these days. Your cousin and I are going to greet them. Remember to take a good rest at home today and don't go anywhere."

 As soon as breakfast time passed, Liu Huai and Liu Yue gave Qiu Yan a few instructions and then left for Pan's house. Only then did the family return to peace.

 "The Liu family is really honest and enthusiastic, and they treated me without reservation."

 After wiping himself with warm water and taking medicine, Qiu Yan's symptoms became milder, and he felt deeply for the busyness of Liu Huai's family.

 After noon, just as he left the room and tried to move around in the yard, there was a banging on the door.

 Boom, boom, boom!

 The sound was loud and dense like a drumbeat.

 Qiu Yan frowned slightly, took two steps forward, and opened the door. A familiar yet slightly unfamiliar face appeared in front of him.

 "Mr. Qiu, you made it easy for me to find him." Wang Qiaoer stood at the door, looking at Qiu Yan with a smile on his face, his eyes showing undisguised resentment.
