Chapter 43: Spiritual Consciousness
In fact, the specialness of Zhou Bai's soul has been shown for a long time. How can ordinary people who have not entered Taoism use the Qi-gazing technique?
Only he, whose soul state can reveal his spiritual consciousness, and who still has strong spiritual power despite being limited by his physical body, can observe the fate of life with mortal eyes.
For the next three days, Zhou Bai still did not go out, but stayed in the stone house and practiced hard on the control of his consciousness.
It is a pity that although he has a considerable number of major skills in his mind, he does not have any specialization in spiritual consciousness, because Zhou Bai stopped in the second realm in his previous life and has not yet come into contact with the level of Yin Shen Zhenren.
Fortunately, some of the exercises included simple manipulation techniques of divine consciousness. After three days, Zhou Bai was no longer unfamiliar with divine consciousness.
He now keeps his consciousness open and within three meters of his body, which can last for as long as a cup of tea.
And the most important thing is that he has honed an extremely rough spiritual attack method. With his powerful soul, he can condense the currently weak spiritual consciousness into one.
Ahem, it's really just a stream, comparable to a mallet.
Of course Zhou Bai originally wanted to condense it into a needle, or even a thorn cone would do, as it would be a handsome and neat attack.
But who made it so that he didn't have the spiritual consciousness method, and he could barely read some techniques from his major exercises, and he didn't have the support of magic power, so he became the stick hammer he is today, which is pretty good.
Armed with a "sharp weapon" and his confidence doubled, Zhou Bai walked out of the stone house with his head held high.
During these three days, there were no ghosts to disturb me at all, and the origin point increased a little.
It seems that the impish owner of this stone house has a high status in this area, and it actually made him famous.
Walking out of the stone house, the pale moonlight illuminated the ghostly land with a faint light.
It is surrounded by wilderness and mountains on all sides, and where the stone house stands is a mass grave, which looks like a mass grave.
Zhou Baicai realized that this was not a stone house, but a luxurious tomb.
The area around the mass graves was okay, there was only a little fog, and many sluggish wild ghosts were floating around the stone houses without any pattern of movement.
After leaving this mass grave, you can really see the ghosts dancing in Zhou Bai's imagination.
The invisible white fog completely shrouded the outside world. From time to time, ferocious evil spirits could be seen fighting each other in the fog, and eerie howls came one after another.
Those ghosts dare not enter this mass grave?
Zhou Bai took a few steps forward and reached out to catch a sluggish wandering ghost, but just like their actions, the ghost was stupid and could not ask any questions.
No matter Zhou Bai scolded, cursed, punched or kicked, the ghost he caught showed no reaction.
Only when he used his spiritual club to beat them to death could he see the instinctive reaction of crazy struggle.
After checking many sluggish wandering souls, Zhou Bai finally gave up and turned around to search the barren graves in the mass grave.
Since that kid can spread his reputation in a small area and obtain origin points, it means that there must be normal ghosts in this mass grave.
So in this mass grave, which is very taboo to the common people, there appeared a scholar wearing Qingjin, who was disturbing ghosts everywhere.
Who knows that Zhou Bai himself is a ghost? He is also the "King of Ghosts" who is afraid of ordinary ghosts. He is afraid of mass graves and barren graves.
After searching a dozen deserted graves, he could not find any ghosts at home, but he found an unusual place.
That is, there are dilapidated incense candles in front of some barren tombs. These incense candles still emit some incense smell. Whenever a wild ghost with a body that is almost transparent approaches the incense candle, the body of the wild ghost will be fuller and more stable.
In addition to soul crystals, cannibalism, and incense can also maintain the existence of ghosts. Zhou Bai came to such a conclusion in time.
So Zhou Bai changed his mind and started looking for more complete tombs with more incense and candles. He didn't believe in the dangers of ghosts and ghosts, who wouldn't stay in a safe home.
In less than half a moment, Zhou Bai found a brand-new tomb. The incense candle had not yet been half burned, and traces of incense surrounded the tomb, dispersing the increasingly thick fog.
"Can the person inside come out and see you?" Zhou Bai said calmly.
But soon he realized that his method of calling people was wrong, and there was no response from the new grave.
"Come out quickly, do you want me to dig you out?" Zhou Bai kicked the soil on the grave, and then used his spiritual consciousness to suppress the ghost hiding in the grave.
Don't listen to good words, but you still have to listen to threatening and bad words.
"Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Your Majesty, have mercy on me, the little ghost will come out right now." A dirty old man's ghost shouted for mercy and got out of the grave.
The clothes on his body were still intact as before, but his face, hands and feet were covered with mud.
During Zhou Bai's questioning, the old man explained everything from beginning to end, including his death.
It turned out that he was a lonely old man who worked odd jobs for wealthy families in the city. That day, he was called by a family to clean up the mud in the lotus pond at home. As a result, he accidentally got stuck in the mud and drowned.
Out of "benevolence and justice", the host's family collected his body, set up a grave in the mass grave, and placed an incense candle on it.
According to the old man, the mass grave is a special area where ghosts from outside will not come in.
As for the ghosts who live in mass graves like him, they will not go out even if they can. Only a small number of ghosts will go out to fight in the last days.
Most of them have become wild ghosts wandering around graveyards. They first lose their minds and then wait for their souls to dissipate naturally during a period of wandering.
In front of another grave, Zhou Bai caught another conscious ghost.
"Is it so scary outside? Isn't there still soul crystal that can save you?" Zhou Bai asked.
"The ghosts here still have incense and will not kill each other. The ghosts outside are not kind. Either you die or I die. It is not uncommon to devour other ghosts in order to survive."
"And the soul crystal you mentioned, how can it be our turn to use it? The place where it was produced has long been occupied by powerful ghosts."
After half a day, Zhou Bai ran through most of the mass graves and did not find the little ghost in the stone house, but he also found dozens of sane ghosts to investigate the situation.
According to them, there is a human world outside, and here is the underworld.
They didn't know before they were alive that they couldn't reincarnate after death, but came to this world of the dead to linger on.
This mass grave is a rare peaceful place, but the kid who wanted to eat Zhou Bai was a "different kind" and broke in from outside the mass grave.
The ghosts outside can only survive normally by swallowing soul crystals and inhaling incense. However, according to the rumors, very few ghosts can obtain incense in areas other than mass graves.
Without the soul crystal incense, there is another way to live normally, which is to kill each other and devour other ghosts to maintain the soul body.
This kind of ghost that has devoured the same kind will often go crazy in the end and is very dangerous.
