Chapter 407: Spirits are born from consciousness
"Your answer is right, but I'm afraid you don't know why it is right. Let me explain it to you."
Little Golden Jinghua said:
“Not all types of life grow in nature.
"There are many strange races that are related to the fantasy, thinking, will, dreams and other conscious activities of living beings. These races that live on the conscious activities of living beings are collectively called [spirits].
“The wild elements are the spiritual spirits among the spirits, and they feed on the spiritual ocean.
"The Yuanjie tree is the spiritual body spirit among the spirits. It lives on the spiritual energy generated by conscious activities. The spiritual body spirit is what we often call the spirit body.
“The richer a creature’s emotions and the sharper its thinking, the more suitable its spiritual world is for the growth of spirits, so the most spirits grow in the conscious activities of humans or humanoid creatures.
"The spirits will subtly guide humans to create a spirit body for them that can move in nature. It may be an alchemy prop, an alchemy body, or a caster's body. When the time is right, they will control the spirit body. control, separate from the human spiritual ocean, and act alone in nature."
The little golden vitex stretches out two leaves, like the hands spread out by humans when speaking:
"I know you may not fully understand what I'm talking about. It doesn't matter. Just remember one sentence:
“Human beings are not only the makers of physical props, but also the makers of the physical bodies of incorporeal beings.
“You can understand this sentence to mean that human beings have created physical props and the physical bodies of incorporeal beings, or conversely, you can think of it as the necessity and objectivity of the existence of physical props and the physical bodies of incorporeal beings, guiding humans to use their own Hands and fantasy create them.”
"Hey, wait." Xia Zuo waved his hand, "I feel that the inevitability and objectivity you are talking about are more difficult to understand than the weird words you said before... Let me think carefully about it."
"Oh, okay. It seems that you prefer figurative expressions, unlike us Golden Wattles who prefer to use abstract nouns." The little Golden Wattles said as she shook the flower branch.
Xia Zuo thought for a few seconds, then snapped his fingers and said, "I'll give you an example. See if I understand it correctly."
"no problem."
Xia Zuo took out a red apple from his alchemy pocket and placed it on the desk:
"Suppose I suddenly get inspiration and want to turn this apple into an apple mage who is proficient in spells. I will use all the knowledge I have learned and all my connections to find a feasible plan.
“Knowledge, connections, materials, techniques, etc. are the means used to achieve the goal, which are objective factors.
"The convergence of these objective factors will inevitably lead to a specific result. This is inevitable.
"If the result is successful and the apple becomes the Apple Mage, completing the transformation from concept to physical object, it will be equivalent to me creating a spirit with an apple as its body, and my sudden inspiration is that some kind of spirit has a strong influence on me. Impact, right?"
"Very correct~" Little Golden Jinghua clapped her "hands":
"Your understanding is correct, there is no problem.
“Among the eight races of the Sakuma Way, strange demons, monsters and monsters only focus on their own physical qualities, animals only think about reproduction and survival, and vegetation and mineral deposits cannot move freely.
"Only humans can release their imaginations to create various creations while living a comfortable life. It is precisely because of this that humans usually play the role of creators of the spirit bodies in the way of Sakuma. The wild element is the most powerful of all spirits. Commonly, this is related to the evolution of human civilization. Whenever humans think about fire, earth, wind and water, wild elements will appear in nature."
Xia Zuo scratched his head, "So the wild element lurks in our consciousness, used us humans to create its spirit body, and then transformed into a spirit race independent of humans?"
"Yes, it is."
Little Golden Wattle paused:
"If the Creation Crystal buried deep under the volcano had not appeared, then the temple would be nominally ruled by human mages, but in fact it would be wild elements secretly controlling human thoughts and actions.
"After the Creation Crystal appeared, it added a shell to the wild elements in nature, turning the wild elements into unruly elements. The wild elements can no longer affect human consciousness activities.
"The vast majority of mages are able to create spells, magic circles and alchemy according to their own ideas. Only a very few tower mages who are very close to the elements will accidentally penetrate the crystal shell of the elements and come into contact with the wild things inside. element.
"After being affected by the wild elements, such people will have inspiration about the caster's body, and then create related meditation methods and alchemical techniques."
Xia Zuo asked thoughtfully:
"According to your statement, are the caster's bodies such as the [Incinerator] body and the [Transformed Metal] body also the product of the influence of wild elements on humans?"
"Yes." The little golden thorn flower shook its bud up and down.
"What about [Elemental Body]? Does the elemental body I built with my inner and outer body also come from spirits?"
"Yes." Little Golden Wattle nodded again, "It is also one of the results of wild elements affecting human consciousness."
"Then if I die unexpectedly one day, won't my elemental body be occupied by wild elements?" Xia Zuo asked.
"Maybe it will, maybe it won't. It depends on whether the temple light element in your spiritual ocean can occupy your elemental body before the wild elements do."
Little Golden Jinghua said:
"The faceless man's [Elemental Star Network] body came from an alchemist who did not yet possess the light element of the temple, but successfully condensed the [Elemental Star Network] body."
Xia Zuo raised his eyebrows and discovered a big secret about the faceless man:
"The Faceless Man once told me that he can help people condense the chaos container, completely control the light element, and escape from the constraints of the temple's laws. Doesn't this mean that all the temple elements in a person's spiritual ocean can be restored? Replace it with wild elements? It is equivalent to handing yourself over to the control of the Faceless Man from the inside out. He talks about the slogan of freedom and independence, but in fact he has already completely controlled his subordinates. "
"That's right." Little Jin Jinghua responded, "He has not yet let the wild elements actively interfere with the consciousness activities of his subordinates. I estimate that he will wait until most of the temple members replace the temple elements with wild elements. Reveal your true colors and manipulate all temple members to serve the wild elements."
Xia Zuo touched the hair on the top of his head and could imagine what a temple completely controlled by wild elements would look like... By then, humans would probably completely abandon their own desires and physiological needs and become the spirit bodies of wild elements. Manufacturing machines, working day and night to create various powerful caster bodies for use by wild elements.
In contrast, the current Lakua Temple, where materialism is rampant but still retains humanity, is more in line with the image of a human civilization.
"The Creation Crystal of the Wild Element Temple" Xia Zuo thought for half a minute, then nodded slowly, "I probably know why you are sure that Kama Silberian will not recognize the Faceless Man..."
"Oh? Tell me your reason?" Little Golden Wattle asked, raising her head.
"Kama Hebraine cooperates with the wild elements, so its cooperation is conveniently limited to the wild elements. Although the wild elements are powerful, the crystal shell of the Creation Crystal can effectively restrict the actions of the wild elements."
Xia Zuo thought and said:
“Look at the temple.
"Although this human organization is inefficient, its people are greedy.
“But if Kama Hebrain cooperates with it, it is tantamount to cooperating with a group of creative humans and many spirits that do not yet have spirit bodies. Potential partners are no longer limited to wild elements.
"In other words, the potential of the Temple is far greater than that of the Faceless Man. As long as Kama Hebrain uses its power of time and space to guide it a little, the Temple will burst out a large part of its potential."
"Very good~Very good~" Little Jin Jinghua shook her head in agreement, "Let me add another reason that you don't know."
"What's the reason?" Xia Zuo asked.
"There is often a hostile relationship between different spirits."
"Huh? Hostile relationship?" Xia Zuo looked at the faceless man who was showing himself to Bai Shu in various ways in surprise...
"Yes, a hostile relationship." Little Jin Jinghua explained:
“Human beings cannot think about two things at the same time, and they cannot serve two spirits at the same time.
“Kama Hebraine is a spiritual spirit, and humans who cooperate with it must continuously give in spiritual energy before they can obtain its guidance.
"In this case, the spiritual body spirit monsters that also occupy the resources of human consciousness activities will become hostile to the spiritual body spirit monsters."
"Ah..." Xia Zuo looked at the faceless man again with sympathy in his eyes, feeling that the other man was like a veritable clown.
Little Jin Jinghua made a gesture of spreading her hands:
"If the Creation Crystal had not appeared, the memory of the wild elemental group would not have been broken, and the faceless people would not have lost their basic knowledge about spirits, let alone show off in front of Baishu, who is also a spirit like now. If Kama Hebrain hadn't cherished his power of time and space, Faceless Man's face-to-face provocation would have been punished."
The powerful Faceless Man suffered the disadvantage of being uneducated and became the stupid young man in the eyes of Xia Zuo and Xiao Jin Jinghua...
Xia Zuo smiled hoarsely, really not knowing what to say...
"It seems like I really don't have to do anything." Xia Zuo said with a smile on his lips:
"Even if Kama Hebrain doesn't recognize me, he will definitely seek cooperation with the temple and contact the old guys in the Holy Pattern Department. By then, there will be a transformation in the temple. Maybe, we can also take advantage of the situation to defeat Wu The Face Man’s evil plan against the pure-blood mage camp.”
Xia Zuo chuckled mischievously, "It would be great if Kama Silberian could slap the faceless man flat on the spot...save me the trouble of going to the faceless man myself."
Before he finished speaking, there was a change on Baishu's side!
The white light ball suspended near the white tree suddenly burst into bright light. Countless golden-white light pillars shot out from the light ball, instantly piercing the faceless man's [Elemental Star Network] body and tying his body into an explosive hair. hedgehog.
"Damn..." Xia Zuo thought he had spoken casually.
Soon, he discovered that he was wrong.
The golden-white light beam only lasted for about half a second, and then disappeared without a trace.
The faceless man who was pierced by the light beam returned to his original appearance in an upside-down posture, and walked backwards step by step back to the armor parts.
The armor parts scattered on the ground flew back to the faceless man and were reassembled into a complete metal covering armor.
Those members of the envoy group who were controlled by [Yuan Neng Invasion] returned to the White Tree with stiff steps. The Yuan Neng chains on their bodies were lifted by the invisible power of time and space. The entire team returned to where they came from, all the way Walking backwards towards the edge of the smoke...
Xia Zuo quickly used the detection technique on this team.
As expected, all members of the Envoy Group, including the Faceless Man, have entered the [Time and Space Rewind] state one by one. Their [Separation of Soul and Flesh] process is going backwards, and the countdown is getting longer and longer...
"This" Xia Zuo was stunned for a moment, "Kama Hebraine can control the time flow of the [Land of Rest] plane rift. It has safely sent the envoy group outside the smoke area. Then it can save the detectives by the way. The regiment, the temple guards and the master witcher?"
As if in response to Xia Zuo's question, the white light ball near Kama Silberian erupted into bright light again, and golden-white light beams shot at different angles.
Xia Zuo called up the perspectives of Rexor and the two of them and took a look.
Two beams of light fell on the two master demon hunters. The process of separation of their souls and bodies was forcibly interrupted. Their vitality emerged from scratch, appeared around them out of thin air, and merged into their bodies that turned into a ball of vitality. inside.
The limbs, internal organs, trachea, skin and other flesh and blood tissues quickly condensed in the vitality light group.
In just two or three minutes, the Demon Hunter master sat cross-legged on the ground in a complete posture.
Xia Zuo looked at the character templates of himself and the blood element servants. The vitality he sent to the master demon hunter to sustain life also returned to the hemogen servant.
After Kama Hebraine eliminated the negative impact of [Separation of Soul and Flesh] on everyone, the white light ball once again projected a silk ribbon-like beam of light, rolled up the humans in the thick smoke area, and lifted them up and sent them outside the thick smoke. place.
Xia Zuo brought the image treasure box from the corner of the table.
On the video screen, the temple guards who were still surrounding the members of the envoys asking about the visit one second were stunned by the people who kept flying out of the thick smoke the next second.
The entire edge of the Altar Square was in commotion.
Everyone who left the thick smoke woke up from meditation or coma. Some people cried uncontrollably, and some people shouted loudly with tears in their eyes that they were saved. Only a calm person like the Demon Hunter Master could calmly and tightly He frowned and thought about what happened to him.
"Kama Hebrain seems to have not erased the memory of the separation of spirit and flesh..."
Xia Zuo switched the video screens, looking for traces of the faceless man.
The mission has a total of 32 members.
In just a short period of time, the number of members increased to 31, and one member took advantage of the chaos and sneaked away.
"This guy is really vigilant. He ran away as soon as he saw the wind was blowing in the wrong direction."
Xia Zuo hugged his arms and shook his head helplessly.
