117 Chapter 117 True Spiritual Charms (2/2)

Within the core of the soul ocean, there were a few more small tunes.

There were only around ten, like words from a passage, suspended at the deepest parts of the soul ocean.

They were the True Spiritual Charm seeds, similar in nature to those God Talisman spiritual seeds outside. The former was forcibly injected in and formed its own cycle. Zong Shou was unable to train it now and turn it into his own. The latter was something he spend a lot of effort to form these few days.

Talismans represented the way of the Heaven, while charms represented everything beneath the way of Heaven.

Beneath a true talisman there would be tens of lesser true charms. Beneath those charms would be spiritual runes.

Using soul power to form True Spiritual Charms was a training method of Out of Body Realm spirit masters. Not only could it help grow the soul, they could also help purify it.

The souls of some peak spirit masters didn't even have any large changes, and were large texts of the grand path made up of talismans and charms.

When one displayed spiritual techniques which involved these True Spiritual Charms in his soul or if he formed True Spiritual Talismans in the future, it could save him power and increase his strength.

Before the Out of Body Realm, the talismans and charms that spirit masters used were false ones. Only after the soul could go out of the body and let the body comprehend Heaven and Earth, truly learning the true meaning of talismans and charms, would one be considered to have truly set foot onto the path of the spiritual arts.

The complicated merger of all sorts of spiritual talismans and spiritual charms was the source of such spiritual arts.

Zong Shou only used ten days to form up twelve True Spiritual Charms, mostly related to the lightning and illusionary elements. He was most familiar with them and thus found them the easiest to form up.

Such talent could be said to be unprecedented.

Moreover he used the Sky Mirror Soul Shining technique every day to gather the true flame of the sun to burn the soul. At this moment, even if his soul still wasn't at the Back to Sun level, but under the daily strengthening of the vital energy from the energy ocean chakra meridians it didn't show signs of weakening.

-In a few more days, after forming up three more true talismans, I can strike the Night Wandering Realm…-

The Lightning Phoenix egg essence's support and help towards soul power wasn't as strong as its true qi aspect.

Zong Shou's Heart Realm cultivation in his last life was too high. In this life, apart from his soul's outer layer having many holes, his soul cultivation talents could be said to be top class, which was why his soul power progress was far ahead of his martial cultivation.

Zong Shou sent a bit of his mind to the twelve God Talismans rotating on the outside. As long as he was able to form up three true spirit talismans, he could try to dissolve and train these seeds. Stepping into Heaven in one step wasn't a dream. This process would be extremely difficult, as taking shortcuts made it hard for one to succeed.

Zong Shou silently meditated, trying to form True Spiritual Charms within his soul. This time he suffered from successive failures, making his soul ocean tremble.

He knew that if he continued there wouldn't be any chance of success. Zong Shou immediately stopped without regret as he woke up from his meditation.

To form True Spiritual Charms and True Spiritual Talismans, apart from soul control needing to be really precise, one also had to understand the true meaning of that talisman or charm. He had thought that since he was skilled in talismans in his last life, forming them shouldn't be too difficult.

He now realized that it was far harder than he had thought.

”Young Master!” Chuxue's head suddenly hung down from the carriage roof, a loud bell-like laugh breaking out. Her body was covered in bird feathers. Her blushing red face was smiling, ”Uncle Lian said that the horses are tired and need to rest to feed...”

Zong Shou's brows rose, and he immediately cancelled his plans of cultivation. He smiled, as with the carriage stopping, that meant Chuxue wouldn't need to catch birds.

In these last few days, Chuxue had developed an immense dread of catching sparrows.

The speed of the Windrider Foals were nearly double that of Cloud Stepping Foals, and they could travel for a full day and night without resting. But they were still flesh and blood, so they would definitely get tired. Long distance travelling required time to rest up.

When Zong Shou got off the carriage, he saw the area around him was a forest. There were numerous mountainous lands around, but they weren't very tall. It was obvious that after passing these mountains they would arrive at the west end of the Sudian mountain range.

Zong Shou and his servants raised their own flames and captured beasts to barbecue.

Not long after Zong Shou's carriage stopped, another red carriage closed in. After Xuanyuan Yiren stepped off the red carriage, she directly took out sacks of green beans from her purse.

These were planted by the large sects in their spiritual farms and had some spiritual power on their own. If normal people ate them frequently, not only could it strengthen their bodies, it would have many benefits for energy cultivation.

Xuanyuan Yiren was using it to feed the horses, very generous and unbiased. There seemed to be endless amounts of sacks as she took out ten sacks, enough to feed all 36 Windrider Foals before finally stopping.

Zong Shou didn't look at those spiritual beans and instead focused on her waist.

That was a small Heaven and Earth bag he had seen many times in game. In the early years he had killed many people just to get one, and had treated it as one of his treasures ever after.
