Chapter 233 Lingxiao Sword Sect
"By the way, Senior, I have a personal question I want to ask you."

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Fang Chen and Tianyu's relationship became closer, and Fang Chen then spoke again.

"But it doesn't matter."

Seeing Fang Chen's serious expression, Tianyu also straightened his body.

"The thing is like this..."

Fang Chen then told the other party about his spiritual clone, the other soul of his own that he found in the Lianyun Mountains, and his conjecture about the three souls.

Tianyu kept listening without interrupting him.

Only after Fang Chen finished speaking did he lower his head to think.

After an unknown amount of time, he began to speak: "I do have an immature guess. Can you let me see the soul of the so-called original owner?"

"of course."

Since this question was asked, Fang Chen did not intend to hide it. He opened the entrance to the ghost realm and summoned out the soul of the original owner.

"This……"

As soon as he saw this soul, Tianyu's eyes widened and he seemed a little out of control.

Fang Chen had never seen Tianyu like this before, and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

"Didn't you just say that Fellow Daoist Ye briefly introduced two conjectures about the three souls?"

Tianyu came back to his senses and brought up the matter of the three souls again.

"That's right. May I ask, Senior, which of these two guesses is right?"

Fang Chen nodded, and was also very curious about what Tianyu, who was once the peak of the Immortal Emperor, thought of the three souls.
"What is right or wrong? The three souls of a person are full of mysteries. Even if one cultivates to the peak of the Immortal Emperor, one cannot get a glimpse of their full picture. I'm afraid that only after becoming a saint can one truly comprehend the mystery. In the Immortal Spirit World back then, there were many different speculations about the three souls. Each speculation, including the two you mentioned earlier, is a profile of the three souls. You should know that there are countless celestial beings in the Immortal Spirit World, all of whom have three souls united into one, yet they still argue about this."

Tianyu shook his head, without commenting on these two views, and then put on a serious expression and said: "Back to your situation, this so-called original owner's soul is your life soul!"

"so?"

Tianyu spoke very seriously, but Fang Chen didn't know what he meant, so he could only hope for further explanation.

"For normal humans, consciousness exists in the soul. Since your soul is here, where does your current consciousness come from?"

There was no way, Tianyu also explained for him.

"Even if you become an Immortal Emperor, only your soul will have consciousness?"

Fang Chen suddenly thought of his incarnation and asked Tianyu again.

Tianyu nodded.

"But my spiritual clone also originally had self-awareness, but I condensed my spiritual thoughts in advance and erased his consciousness."

Fang Chen was also shocked at this moment and didn't know what to say.

"I suggest that I investigate whether it is the Heavenly Soul or the Earthly Soul that is controlling your body now?"

After Fang Chen said this, Tianyu also remembered that he had a spiritual clone, and immediately asked Fang Chen again.

This is a serious matter, so how could Fang Chen disagree?
As soon as he nodded, he felt a breeze blowing over him, and then Tianyu spoke: "It's confirmed, the one in you is the Heavenly Soul."

"May I ask, Senior, how do we distinguish between life soul, earth soul, and heaven soul?"

Since the life soul and the heavenly soul are here, the one that has manifested itself outside the body is the earthly soul.

However, Fang Chen was very curious, how to distinguish the three souls?
"To be honest, it is impossible to tell them apart. The auras of the Life Soul, Earth Soul, and Heaven Soul are almost identical. Only a Golden Immortal who has achieved the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head and the Three Souls have united as one can sense the difference."

This also stumped Tianyu. As he had said before, the debate about the three souls in the Fairy World did not stop until the world was destroyed.

If ordinary people could sense the difference between the three souls, there wouldn't be so many speculations, and it would have been thoroughly studied long ago.

After all, only the immortals at the Golden Immortal and Immortal Emperor levels can sense the difference between the three souls. Looking at the immortal world of the past, there are very few people who can reach this level.

Even Long Jia was just an earthly immortal before the destruction of the fairy world, and he was unable to transform due to his own bloodline.

It was Tianyu who gave him guidance, allowing him to break through to the celestial immortal level before reaching the critical point and successfully transform, but he also suffered more pain in the new world.

After all, compared to earthly immortals, celestial immortals are more dependent on immortal energy.

The number of Golden Immortals and Immortal Emperors is very small, and there are not many people who really study the three souls, so no conclusion has been reached.

"That's it."

Fang Chen also expressed his understanding, and then asked, "Then what exactly is my situation?"

"Can you tell me the whole story again?"

Tianyu made a request. He didn't pay much attention to it before, so he didn't listen very carefully. Now he wanted to confirm some details.

Of course Fang Chen would not refuse, and he told the whole story again.

Since he had talked about it once before and realized the seriousness of the matter, this time he also made up for many of the things he had missed last time.

After saying this, Tianyu fell into a long period of contemplation.

When the moon moved from one side of the bamboo building to the other, he spoke: "I have a guess about this, but I am afraid that my guess is true, so I can't tell you directly."

Looking at Tianyu's complicated expression, Fang Chen was a little confused and asked, "Senior, how did you become a riddle man?"

"I am not telling you a riddle. If it is really as I guessed, once I speak it out loud, the result will be different. So, I will seal my guess in your soul. If it comes true in the future, this seal will be automatically unlocked, and you will then be able to know the full picture of the incident. This is also a backup plan I will leave for this world."

Tianyu's face was solemn and he spoke a long paragraph to explain the reason.

Although this sentence still sounded a bit like a riddle to Fang Chen, he seemed to understand it, nodded and said, "Please go ahead, senior."

With permission, Tianyu slapped the soul of the original owner, that is, Fang Chen's soul. Countless array patterns floated into the air from the contact point, and then merged into the soul. The whole process lasted for two quarters of an hour, and Tianyu's face turned pale before he finally completed the seal.

Thinking of how he had used various formations with ease before, this seal was obviously not simple.

"I need to regulate my breathing and recover my vitality. Let's stop here for today's barbecue."

After completing the seal, Tianyu's voice became a little weak.

"No problem, Senior, please meditate in my training ground. It is the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the entire Yuehua Immortal City."

Fang Chen waved his hand, put his soul into the ghost realm, put away all the barbecue equipment in front of him, and led Tianyu to his own training ground.

There were already several cushions prepared here, and Zhu Yueyao was now occupying one, which was the one that Fang Chen often used.

When Fang Chen and the other person started barbecuing, the two of them were arguing about the future of the world. It seemed that the Moon Goddess had won. At the moment, Zhu Yueyao was like a good girl and was being scolded by the Moon Goddess.

Tianyu had no interest in listening to all this. He found a cushion and started meditating.

The same goes for Fang Chen.

Just before meditating, he suddenly asked the Moon God out of curiosity: "By the way, why can Moonlight Grass absorb moonlight and transform it into spiritual energy?"

"Are you worried that if you continue to expand the scale of planting moonlight plants, one day you will no longer be able to convert moonlight into spiritual energy?"

The Moon Goddess's gaze turned to Fang Chen, and she instantly became gentle, and she saw through what he was thinking at a glance.

"Ah."

Fang Chen had no choice but to nod.

"Then you don't have to worry. The moonlight plants can transform moonlight. It's thanks to the Moon Palace."

Zhu Yueyao, who was being scolded, finally got a chance and answered the question first.

"The credit of the Moon Palace?"

Fang Chen was a little confused.

"The Moon God Palace is not only a power created by my elder sister, but also a supreme immortal weapon made of dozens of innate treasures. The sun and moon in the current cultivation world are actually just projections of the Moon God Palace."

Zhu Yueyao said proudly again.

"After all these years, you still have the mentality of a child."

Looking at Zhu Yueyao, the Moon Goddess couldn't help but shook her head and sighed.

"Dozens of innate treasures?!"

Although we are not quite sure what the concept of an innate treasure is, just from the word "innate", we can tell that it is extremely precious.

"What Yueyao said is not wrong. Before I merged with the Dao, I placed the Moon God Palace in the chaos. The Moon God Palace is very good at hiding its whereabouts. Over the years, the Saint Clan has probably been looking for it, but to no avail."

After criticizing Zhu Yueyao, Yueshen turned to the surprised Fang Chen and said.

"Then what is the principle of how moonlight plants transform spiritual energy?"

This is what Fang Chen really wants to know.

"One of the functions of the Moon God Palace is to absorb energy from the chaos and transform it into spiritual energy or immortal energy. The Moon God Palace was originally in the Immortal World, so the spiritual energy and immortal energy transformed from it will naturally remain in the world."

The Moon God first introduced the function of the Moon God Palace, and then continued: "After merging with the Tao, if you want to lead the spiritual energy transformed by the Moon God Palace to the new world, you need a medium, and this medium is the moonlight plant."

"My sister worked tirelessly and used her own blood to create a batch of moonlight plants before the world was divided. Unfortunately, the people in the world did not know how to cherish them. They did not even cultivate a single immortal-level moonlight plant, and made the new world into what it is now."

Zhu Yueyao was there again speaking up for the Moon Goddess.

The Moon Goddess did not scold her this time.

She also felt that the mortals in the new world were not doing very well.

"Thank you both for your answers."

Fang Chen didn't want to participate in this discussion, mainly because it was meaningless.

Instead of complaining about the past, look to the future.

He immediately began to meditate and practice.

During the foundation-building period, one needs to open up the eight extraordinary meridians.

He is now at the first level of foundation building, and needs to open up the Ren meridian first before he can break through to the second level of foundation building.

There are twenty-four acupoints on the Ren Meridian. To open up this meridian, you cannot start from these twenty-four acupoints, but rather from the Lieque point in the Hand Taiyin Meridian.

Lieque point is one of the eight meridian intersection points and is connected to the Ren meridian. To open up the Ren meridian, one must start from this point, penetrate the Chengjiang point, and then go all the way down to penetrate the entire meridian.

The twelve main meridians are symmetrical, but there is only one extraordinary meridian. Fang Chen's true energy enters the two Lieque points on the left and right, rushes straight to the throat along the arms, and attacks the Chengjiang point of the Ren meridian on both sides.

Soon, this acupuncture point was pierced.

A whole night had passed.

After opening his eyes, Fang Chen noticed the vibration of Zi Yu Jian before he could feel happy about his own progress.

When his spiritual consciousness probed into it, he found a message from Ye Qingyang. The content of the message surprised him even more.

"People from Lingxiao Sword Sect have arrived at Tianfeng Immortal City?"

　Today is the first update, 3,000 words, and there will be another update to come.
