The Pastoral Life of a Cultivation Master

Chapter 2885 The Function of Soul Crystal

Chen Mo first activated his true energy, pressed acupoints to immobilize Zhou Zixing, and used an isolation talisman to isolate him. In this way, he could only stand here, unable to hear or see, and even unable to feel anything. There was only a chill invading his body.

With all these things, no matter who it is, they may not be able to stand it for long, just like being locked up in a small dark room, or even worse than being locked up in a small dark room. After all, the small dark room is just a place where you can't hear or see anything, and it's dark, and now he has to add the cold, all these things are a bit unbearable for Zhou Zixing.

Chen Mo did this because he needed to take out the soul crystal and then discuss it with Lan Caijie. After all, although Lan Caijie already had a soul body and recognized him as her master, this woman had a miserable life, so he didn't want to force Lan Caijie to do anything. At least he had to discuss it with her before doing it.

As long as he agrees to do it, it will be good for you, me and everyone. If he doesn't want to, or is hesitant, Chen Mo will not force him and can only think of other ways to control Zhou Zixing.

If there is no way to control it, then use the last resort and just send Zhou Zixing to get his lunch box.

The second reason was to let Zhou Zixing feel this kind of confinement, so that he could understand his methods. At least when he did things in the future, he would have to think about what happened today, and it would also prevent him from directly resisting himself when he got hot-headed.

Although he could easily deal with Lao Deng, his actions would be delayed and might expose some of his own secrets, so he should be allowed to feel the terrifying atmosphere first and examine himself to see if he could withstand the consequences of resistance and betrayal.

Chen Mo took out the soul-nourishing jar and called Lan Caijie out.

"Huh? What's going on here? It's so cold?" When Lan Caijie came out, although her soul body could not feel the cold, she could see everything around her. Not only was there wind and snow, but she couldn't see too far, which surprised her.

"Ah! What's going on with this person? I seem to have seen this person before. Did you freeze him?" Lan Caijie asked. For a moment, this woman talked a lot, and Chen Mo didn't know how to answer.

So, he thought about it for a while, thinking about how to say it, and then he heard Lan Caijie asked a little unhappy: "Is there something you want to talk to me about?"

I was cultivating well in the soul-raising jar, but I was naturally a little unhappy about being disturbed. Although I was a little curious about the different environment around me, I still had to express my dissatisfaction.

As a soul body, it is not enough to just consolidate one's own spirit and soul and prevent it from dissipating and weakening. One also needs to deepen one's cultivation and make the soul body stronger, so that one can survive better.

Well, as a soul, she also wanted to survive. Even if she recognized her master, she wanted to live well. She even wanted to see what Chang'an would look like a thousand years later.

Of course, she was just a little unhappy, nothing else. After all, she had already recognized him as her master, and everything was based on his will.

Fortunately, Chen Mo did not want to control this woman, nor did he imprint any restrictions in her soul, nor did he destroy this woman's consciousness, allowing her to exist as herself.

This also made Lan Caijie very grateful to Chen Mo. Because of this, she had some independence and personality in front of Chen Mo.

Chen Mo did not respond to Lan Caijie's words and said, "I have something I want to talk to you about. See if you are willing to do it."

"What's the matter? Tell me." Lan Caijie said with a smile.

Chen Mo told him about Zhou Zixing's situation and also shared his own plans.

"In other words, you want me to stay with this old man, monitor him, and guard against his betrayal until the end of this expedition?" Lan Caijie asked.

Chen Mo nodded and said, "Yes."

After Lan Caijie confirmed it, she was not unwilling, but nodded and said: "Okay, but how can I stay on this old man? Do I have to enter his sea of ​​consciousness?"

"What are you thinking about? You entered this Lao Deng's sea of ​​consciousness. Can this Lao Deng still be himself?" Chen Mo was speechless. Lan Caijie was a cultivator after all. Although he no longer had a body, his soul was powerful and was not something Zhou Zixing could contend with.

Therefore, if Lan Caijie entered his soul, she would be able to directly devour Zhou Zixing's soul and take over his place.

Chen Mo thought of letting Lan Caijie monitor Zhou Zixing for this reason. As long as Zhou Zixing was not honest, Lan Caijie would directly enter his sea of ​​consciousness, devour or tear his soul apart, and then occupy the sea of ​​consciousness and control Zhou Zixing's body.

At that time, it doesn't matter whether you jump into the river, jump off a cliff, or slit your throat directly, or even dance a Han Dynasty court dance and then do a 360-degree Thomas spin, or suffocate yourself to death by standing upside down. As long as you have an idea, you can die creatively.

As for occupying Zhou Zixing's body all the time, it was impossible. After all, Lan Caijie's soul had Chen Mo's mark, and this woman didn't want to control an old man's body.
"What should I do? I don't want him to have my soul jar, so I'd rather not do this." Lan Caijie frowned and said. The soul jar was her foundation, her place of existence, so it was no problem for Chen Mo to have it, but for an old man to have it was like being held in his hand, which was very unpleasant and naturally she was a little unwilling.

Chen Mo chuckled, took out a small soul crystal the size of a thumb from his Qiankun bag, and said, "Take a look at this."

"What is this...?" Lan Caijie looked at the soul crystal and felt it was a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't figure out what it was.

"Doesn't it sound familiar?"

"Yes, a little, but I can't remember what it is."

"Haha, this is what I got from the underground of Xiye Ancient City. It's called Soul Crystal." Chen Mo said with a smile.

It was understandable that Lan Caijie could not recognize her. After all, this woman's cultivation was also a mediocre one. She only started to cultivate after getting a few things from a cultivator. As for the treasures in the cultivation world, she didn't recognize them at all.

This is also the difference between having inheritance and not having inheritance. With inheritance, one naturally has a broader vision and will not fail to recognize treasures when seeing them. Just like Chen Mo, because of Master Ye Shang's jade talisman, he not only inherited the cultivation, but also added some common sense in the world of cultivation, so that he can see treasures and will not treat them as ordinary things.

He would not miss any treasure introduced in the jade talisman for passing on skills.

But Lan Caijie was different. She only got a poor cultivation method and nothing else. So even if she got a treasure, she couldn't recognize what it was.

It can be seen that soul crystals are used to guard tombs and prevent outsiders from entering the underground city.

"Soul Crystal?" Lan Caijie was curious. It was the first time she heard the name. Seeing something familiar, she asked, "What's the use of this? You said you got it from the underground of Xiye Ancient City. Doesn't that mean you got it from me? But why can't I remember where there is such a thing? Where did you get it from the underground city?"

Chen Mo smiled again and explained how to get the soul crystal and the function of the soul crystal.

"What, this is the big piece of wizard stone you're talking about? The wizard stone that can raise monsters and make them stronger?" Lan Caijie was surprised. She really didn't expect it to be a wizard stone.

Moreover, that piece of witch stone was not small, it was quite large. It turned out to be a treasure, and it had such a good effect. It was simply a treasure for cultivation. In the past, I really didn't know the difference between gold and jade, and I didn't recognize the treasure right in front of me.

Now, Lan Caijie stared at the soul crystal with her eyes shining. Naturally, she coveted such a treasure that could strengthen her soul.

"Isn't that soul crystal very big? Why is the one in your hand so small?" Lan Caijie said.

"This piece was taken from that piece. It is enough to nourish the soul."

"It's such a small piece, you're so stingy." Lan Caijie was a little speechless. Not only did he take away her treasure, but now he only gave her such a small piece. He was really stingy.

Chen Mo smiled and shook his head, and said to Lan Caijie: "What are you thinking? With your current body, if you want to use the soul crystal directly, you are simply seeking death."

Picking up the soul crystal, he explained that soul crystal is indeed a treasure for cultivators. After all, as long as there is a body, the soul is defective. As long as there is a soul crystal, it can be used to restore the soul and even strengthen the spirit.

However, if one only has the soul, then in order to use the soul crystal to nourish the soul and strengthen the spirit, one must engrave runes in the soul crystal to ensure the safety of the soul in the soul crystal. If there is no rune, then the soul crystal is not used to repair the soul, but the energy in the soul crystal will directly destroy the soul consciousness and turn it into a bloodthirsty monster, and a monster with a soul body.

"Do you understand?" Chen Mo asked.

"So that's it!" After listening to it, Lan Caijie finally understood. She was extremely envious of Chen Mo, who had an orderly inheritance of cultivation. She really didn't expect that there was so much knowledge in cultivation. After she became a soul, she was able to follow Chen Mo. It was really foresighted.

“As long as you engrave runes in the soul crystal, you can treat it as another treasure like a soul-nourishing jar. Not only can you practice in it, but your soul can also automatically grow stronger, repair defects, and so on. Anyway, there are many benefits, which are much greater than the effects of a soul-nourishing jar. Now I don’t have the time or the conditions, so I can only simply engrave some runes so that you can stay in it. When I have time in the future, I will use the soul crystal to make a good hiding place for you.” Chen Mo said.

"That's great." Knowing the benefits of soul crystals, Lan Caijie naturally wanted them. Hearing Chen Mo say this, she was naturally delighted.

Chen Mo stopped talking nonsense and began to use restrictions and a carving knife to engrave runes on this small piece of soul crystal, turning it into something equivalent to a soul-nourishing jar.
