<h4>Chapter 209: Reincarnation State</h4>
“Soul of the Thrae?” Fang Lin’s eyebrows raised as he heard this absurd im from Long Juo. “You sure you are not high on something!”
“I am not high!” Long Juoined as he stomped the ground angrily. This sight must have been endearing when he was a girl, but now it just looked like he was a bratty person. He gave Fang Lin an angry look as he asked him,
“Do you even know thats can cultivate?”
Fang Lin’s eyebrows raised after hearing that. “Of course I know that!” Pretty much everyone who follows the practitioner path knows about the fact thats can also get stronger.
Of course because thes were different from living creatures, their way of cultivation was different too.
The First to Sixth Stages on a’s cultivation focus on the creation of the’s Nascent Soul.
When aes into being, it will have no soul at all. It will be justparable to a piece of rock floating in space, empty and cold. Only when living beings start to upy a that it can start to cultivate.
Of course since it was originally a soulless object, the cultivation of a depends entirely on the creatures living on it.
It was the strength of a’s soul that determines the living conditions that it can give to its residents.
The environment, the qi and mana in it, the power of the creatures that can live in it all depends on the’s soul.
The soul developed by the at the early stages however, were not that intelligent. Once can say that it just... exists there. It will react instinctively, but it will not proactively make an action and it cannot think rationally yet. Only once the’s soul power reaches the boundary of the Fifth and Sixth Stage that it can start behaving like an intelligent life form.
There were distinct boundaries for each stage of the soul cultivation of a.
A can only step on the First Stage once its soul can sense all the objects residing on it. At this stage, the’s soul was not yet concentrated. It was spread throughout its whole body, which made it possible for it to sense everything on it.
At the Second Stage, the’s soul will be powerful enough to start releasing more qi and mana. It was also at this stage that it can feel the instinctive yearning to produce more living creatures.
At the Third Stage, the’s originals spread-out soul starts to converge into a smaller shape. At this stage, the soul was powerful enough to subconsciously manipte its physical conditions like weather and natural disasters.
The can only step on the Fourth Stage once its soul was small enough to fit its core. At this stage, the can start to sense the daos andws of the universe. With the support of its resident practitioners and the almost unlimited time it had, the will start to subconsciouslyprehend a dao or aw.
Of course the way itprehends was different from a practitioner. Itsprehension depends on theprehensions obtained by the practitioners living on it. And because the was originally a non-living object, itsprehension of the dao orw of the Universe was way, way, way too slow.
That slowprehension speed was the reason the mostmons in the Universe were at the First until the Fourth Stage.
Only when the canprehend a dao or aw that it can be considered in the Fifth Stage. That was the current stage of Fang Lin’s. Once a was in the Fifth Stage, the living conditions in that improves dramatically.
But even with thisprehension, the soul of the could still not think intelligently. It will still act on its instincts.
The will only start developing intelligence once it was at the state between the Fifth and Sixth Stage, the reincarnation state.
The way a can advance into the Sixth Stage was full of risks and dangers. One slight misstep and the can lose its soul entirely, leading to its death.
At this point though, even if the’s soul dies, the body of the can still support its residents. The will just have a new soul be developed on it. This new soul can then attempt to step on the Sixth Stage once it was strong enough to do it.
As for why the breakthrough to the Sixth Stage was risky, it was because the had to reincarnate its soul as a living being.
Once the instinctively feels the need to break through the Sixth Stage, it will send its soul into the cycle of reincarnation, and it will be reborn as a living creature. At this point, the soul of that living creature was still in its essence, the soul of the.
Now, the goal of the reincarnated was to make its living body reach the Sixth Stage in the cultivation of the living creatures.
Once that living body bes an Immortal or a God, the will use this living body as the foundation so that it’s original, non-living body can break through to the Sixth Stage.
At this point and beyond, the was already a sentient being.
As for the steps to reach the Seventh, Eighth and Ninth Stage, Fang Lin had no idea of it, since they were treated as very restricted information.
As he remembered these facts, he gave Long Juo another doubting look as he asked him,
“So how are you sure that Tang Li was the reincarnated form of the Thrae?”
Long Juo gave scoffed as he said,
“From where I came from, there were records of individuals who were reincarnateds. ording to those records, a reincarnated, once born, have a high intelligence. But since their living vessel was still young, it still had to seal itself to prevent its living body from being destroyed by its powerful soul.”
“Hmm.... So that means that once the body of the living vessel had already limated enough, the soul of the will unseal itself or in what you said earlier, awaken?”
“That’s right.” Long Juo nodded. He then tilted his head as he recalled something. “The records also stated that once the soul of the fully awakens, two phenomena will happen. One is that the entirety of the will tremble, celebrating the full awakening of its soul. Second is that the living vessel will emit a multi-colored light, signifying theplete integration of the’s soul into a living body.”
“.......” Fang Lin had no choice but to ept what Long Juo was saying. He nced at Tang Li, who was still in the midst of her awakening. From time to time, she will sleeptalk, muttering about mwilk and pwaying.
“Wait, if you know that, then other practitioners must know about it too right?”
“Exactly.” Long Juo replied grimly. “And I am sure they will rush here to do something with Tang Li. After all, obtaining the soul of Thrae will be highly beneficial to any practitioner.
“Crap!” Fang Lin cursed as he looked outside the window. He knew that any moment now, somebody mighte to obtain Tang Li.
“Having difficulties here, I presume?” Fang Lin looked outside, and a relieved expression appeared on his face. As long as this man was here, Fang Lin knew they can survive this situation!
“You couldn’t have chosen a better timing master.” Fang Lin said as he gave a toothy grin to Wang Hao.
Wang Hao, who was now on his original form and was not donning any armor, gave Fang Lin a thumbs-up as he said
“So you have a wife and two children now. You really are diligent!”
“...”
