Chapter 88: Training the Soul

After sending off Taoist Chen, Song Qingming told Wang Cheng not to let anyone disturb him, and then happily returned to his own residence behind the shop.

The yard where he lived was next to his fourth uncle's family. He walked through the back hall, turned a corner, and walked a few dozen steps forward and soon arrived.

The fourth uncle had been here for decades and had already taken root. In addition to mortals, servants, and several children, the whole family was noisy all day long.

After arriving at the residence and closing the door, Song Qingming carefully arranged a soundproof ban at the door, and soon the noise from the next door disappeared in his ears.

The ban is actually a simplified formation. It is relatively simple to arrange, and the effect will of course be greatly reduced. It can only play a part of the role of the formation.

Recently, in order to be quieter when practicing, Song Qingming has spent some time studying the way of formation. Not only did he use the materials collected in the store to make several sets of formations, but his own formation ban level has also improved a lot.

The restriction that Song Qingming had just set up at the door was actually the soundproof formation that he had just used in the shop. He had successfully refined it a few months ago.

This soundproof restriction can completely isolate sounds within a certain range. After using the formation flags to set up the formation, it can also isolate the consciousness of the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.

After setting up this set of restrictions, Song Qingming felt much more at ease when practicing. Not only could it isolate external noise, but the various sounds coming from his room would not be heard by people outside. As long as he did not encounter a foundation-building cultivator, it would be difficult for anyone to spy on what was happening in his room.

Sitting cross-legged in the compartment where he practiced, Song Qingming eagerly opened the jade slip of the cultivation method he had just obtained.

Since he got the Thunder Tiger Puppet Beast, Song Qingming went to many shops to inquire in the past few years in Guiyunfang, but he could not find this kind of spiritual consciousness type of cultivation method.

The cultivators who knew Lu Yunfei who had practiced this kind of cultivation method could not pass on the cultivation method to outsiders due to the restrictions of the sect.

Unexpectedly, after Song Qingming had been looking for the technique for several years but failed to find it, after returning to Qinghe County, Chen Laodao, whom he had not seen for ten years, came to him by accident and gave him the technique he had been looking for but could not get. It was really unpredictable.

However, Song Qingming also paid a considerable price to get this technique. Two bottles of elixirs plus the top-grade talisman that Chen Laodao was going to give him cost him more than a hundred spiritual stones in total.

Spiritual stones are sometimes really hard to spend. I worked hard for several months to save a hundred spiritual stones, but it only took me half a day to spend them.

After spending most of the day, Song Qingming carefully read this technique several times.

After reading it, Song Qingming slowly discovered that the difficulty of practicing the spiritual consciousness technique was much higher than he had imagined, and practicing this technique was very dangerous and could easily cause damage to the cultivator's soul.

The soul is as important to the cultivator as the elixir field. One is to store the mana in the body, and the other is to entrust the cultivator's consciousness.

Once the soul of a cultivator is injured, it is difficult to recover quickly. If the injury is too serious, causing the soul or sea of ​​consciousness of the cultivator to be damaged, the light will lose part of the memory, and the serious will make the person become a fool.

This Fengyuan Soul Forging Technique is a relatively tricky soul forging technique. The core idea of ​​the technique is that the cultivator attaches the soul in his body to a special magic weapon or spiritual object that can store the soul every day, forcibly pulls out the soul in his body, and constantly forges the soul with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, so as to achieve the effect of strengthening the soul and improving the consciousness.

Once the soul of a cultivator leaves the sea of ​​consciousness of the brain for a long time, it is very easy to be damaged in the outside world. This is indeed a very dangerous thing for the cultivator who is practicing this technique for the first time.

Knowing that practicing this technique is more dangerous, Song Qingming did not rush for success, and spent a lot of time to comprehend and understand this technique.

Then he found a medium-grade magic weapon called the Soul Gathering Bottle in the market, and began to carefully take his soul out of his body step by step.

After his soul left his sea of ​​consciousness and went outside his body, Song Qingming suddenly felt a chill and piercing pain in his brain. This was also the pain that he had to experience when practicing this technique. Although Song Qingming had been prepared in his heart, he still underestimated the pain of stimulating his soul and almost failed to stabilize his mana.

Fortunately, he had practiced for many years, so he gritted his teeth and quickly called on the mana in his body to wrap the Soul Gathering Bottle, reducing the pain of his soul contacting the outside world. With his own strong willpower, he survived.

Five feet, six feet, ten feet, eleven feet, he practiced hard every day, and it took almost three months before Song Qingming finally felt some changes in his consciousness brought by this technique.

Although he practiced a little slowly, Song Qingming did not lose heart. After several months of hard practice, he finally got into this technique and survived the most dangerous step.

It is indeed not so easy to practice spiritual skills. No wonder there are so few cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation who practice this kind of skills. The pain and danger they have to go through are enough to discourage many cultivators. Plus, the effect of practicing this kind of skills is very limited for cultivators in the Qi Refining stage. So it is not surprising that this kind of skills are rare.

Song Qingming should thank Chen Laodao for the cultivation experience of this technique. During the past few months of his cultivation, Chen Laodao's cultivation experience helped him avoid many detours.

This old man's cultivation aptitude is average, but he is indeed much better than Song Qingming in comprehending the technique. No wonder he dared to take the initiative to practice such a dangerous spiritual consciousness technique. Song Qingming still admired him very much.

Then Song Qingming slowly accelerated his practice rhythm of this technique. After three years of hard practice, Song Qingming finally successfully completed the practice of this technique.

Now the spiritual consciousness in Song Qingming's body can be projected more than 20 feet away, which can completely cover the entire store of the Song family. It is almost twice as powerful as before.

The improvement of spiritual consciousness has also greatly improved Song Qingming's ability to control the puppet beast. Now he can control the Thunder Tiger Puppet Beast more easily than before. The power of the puppet beast in his hand is now almost comparable to that of an ordinary sixth-level Qi Refining cultivator.

This Fengyuan Soul Forging Technique is only a spiritual consciousness technique for the Qi Refining Period, and this technique is not complete. Song Qingming does not know whether the predecessor who created this technique has not yet completed it, or whether the subsequent techniques have been scattered to other places.

In the past few years, Chen Laodao has been hanging around in Qinghefang and often comes to the Song family shop. Song Qingming took the opportunity to ask him if he has any subsequent techniques. Chen Laodao said frankly that he really only got this part of the technique and did not hide it from Song Qingming.

In this regard, Song Qingming also deliberately tested Chen Laodao's spiritual consciousness and found that his spiritual consciousness was indeed similar to that after practicing the technique. It can be seen that he did not practice this technique to a higher level, and he should not have any subsequent techniques.

Just a few days after Song Qingming completed the Fengyuan Soul Forging Technique, his fourth uncle Song Changqiu came to this shop in a hurry to find him.

"Qingming, I just received a message from the clan. The elder asked you to go back. It seems a bit urgent. You should pack up quickly. I will watch over here for you first."
