The myth begins with the Lotus Lantern

Chapter 52 Ghost
"My daughter," it was only at this moment that the Wansheng Dragon King finally arrived. He looked at the Wansheng Princess and shook his head, "What is this..."

Afterwards, he ordered the little demons in the Dragon Palace to start clearing the ruins and rebuilding the palace.

……

In the world of mythology, time seems to be compressed and always passes quickly, so quickly that it seems like everything is over in the blink of an eye.

Three days later, the Dragon Palace at the bottom of the pool returned to its previous appearance. The ruins were cleared away, and a palace exactly the same as the original one stood up.

Gardens, rockeries, pavilions, towers...

Everything returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

Ding Lin also returned to his previous life.

At night, he floated on the dome, with a dragon ball as bright as the moon circling around him. The dragon energy permeated his body, and he began to practice again.

With the help of the Jade-faced Princess, although I still cannot use my demonic energy for the time being, at least there is hope.

It was like a person who fell into the water grabbed something in his hand.

Not only did I feel a little more at peace, but my cultivation speed also improved significantly.

Ding Lin estimated that it was at least 10% higher than before.

……

Time flies, and it’s half a year again.

Ding Lin's cultivation reached the 853rd year, and it had not yet been ten years since he broke through to the demon pill realm.

Miraculous medicines complement each other, and dragon balls provide assistance.

One day of practice.

It can be equivalent to a hundred days under normal circumstances.

This was the fastest speed Ding Lin had ever experienced since he started practicing, so much so that when he finally reached the bottleneck, he suddenly felt it was unreal.

More than 800 years of cultivation.

It is already the bottom line of cultivation that can break through the Yuanshen realm.

Originally due to his lack of confidence in his own foundation, Ding Lin estimated that his cultivation level would be around this time when he would break through to the Soul Formation stage.

I don’t know if it’s because of the effect of the dragon balls, or if the good things I’ve taken over the years have added some extra depth to my body.

Eight hundred years of cultivation.

Ding Lin had just encountered the first small obstacle in the demon pill realm.

Of all things created by nature, humans are the most favored. They have a perfect spirit, sufficient energy, soul and spirit. Humans are born with three souls and seven spirits. However, after other species gain intelligence, they are only born with the most basic soul.

Three souls and seven souls.

The two souls of heaven and earth are always outside, and only the soul of life resides in the body. The soul of life resides in the body and evolves into the seven spirits.

Seven souls: joy, anger, sorrow, happiness, love, desire and fear.

Po represents emotion.

If the seven spirits are missing, emotions will be incomplete.

This is why those little monsters who have just awakened to intelligence often tend to tend to one extreme.

They are either violent, cowardly, cruel, or gentle, and there are very few who show kindness.

These are often a continuation of previous instincts and only tend to be one-sided.

As for other emotions, monsters are lacking them at this stage.

Yang Chan once praised Ding Lin for his intelligence and said that his bloodline was excellent and could be compared to a dragon.

It's not just that he shows wisdom, but more because the emotions he expresses outwardly are complete.

This little demon who appeared before the demon pill realm is gifted.

For most monsters, the seven souls will only be derived when the monster pill is condensed and can transform into a human-like body.

But owning something doesn't mean you can use it.

Just like human babies, they can only cry after they are born.

Laughter, sadness, likes, discomfort...these still require acquired interpersonal interactions to be truly experienced.

For a monster, this process is even longer. The first emotion that was born is already deeply rooted. With its influence, it may take hundreds of years for other emotions to manifest, and it requires extremely profound cultivation in the meantime.

And this process is the manifestation of the seven spirits.

The seven spirits originate from the life soul.

When one has practiced enough, and then uses the seven spirits to induce the soul, the life soul will reveal itself.

Ding Lin was originally a human being, and he already had seven souls. Now he has 800 years of cultivation under his belt. With a thought, the bottleneck was punctured like paper.

An illusory figure appeared in the sea of ​​consciousness.

This is what Ding Lin looked like in his previous life, and it is also what he thinks he should look like as a "human being".

The soul is originally invisible, and appearance is created by the mind.

This figure is the soul that resides in this body.

After appearing, an expression of extreme pain immediately appeared on the face of the Soul of Life.

The physical body is yang, and the life soul is hidden in the physical body. Yang’s extreme value gives birth to Yin, so the nature of the life soul is extremely yin.

Also called a ghost.

The first small realm in the Demon Pill Realm is the Yin Soul Realm.

The flesh is hot.

As soon as the soul appeared, it immediately began to shake under the impact of the blood and energy that was as hot as hot oil. It could not hold on at all and was about to collapse.

At this moment, consciousness fell into the soul, and the soul's originally confused eyes suddenly brightened.

A wave of his hand.

The eight hundred years of cultivation that had been lingering in the dantian flowed into the meridians, poured into the sea of ​​consciousness, and then circled around the soul, and then turned into a bright red robe.

The look in front of the soul calmed down.

Another wave of his hand.

Seven points of light lit up from the corresponding internal organs in the body, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, each point showing a color. They gathered halfway and rushed towards the soul like a rainbow. But when it got close, they suddenly separated and lingered around the soul, isolating the remaining pressure.

The soul is fully manifested.

In this way, the ghost is accomplished.

Ding Lin closed his eyes and tried to control his soul, wanting it to rush out of his body.

'Out-of-body experience' is one of the methods used by demon cultivators in the Yinhun realm who have manifested their souls.

But it failed and the soul did not rush out of the body.

A curtain like water isolated Ding Lin's body from the inside and outside. It was the restriction set by Princess Halloween. The ghost had to change its route, wearing the embroidered red robe woven with demonic energy, and drilled into Dantian, and then stayed in the demon pill.

Breakthrough?
In the pavilion, Princess Halloween looked up and happened to see the deep unwillingness flashing across Ding Lin's eyes. The corners of her mouth curled up, revealing a happy smile, then she lowered her head again.

She didn't notice that after her gaze moved away, Ding Lin's true color hidden behind the reluctance and the excitement that could no longer be concealed appeared in his eyes.

Although the ghost's attempt to break through the restriction just now failed, at the moment of the collision, Ding Lin clearly saw that a small piece of the restriction, which was originally as impenetrable as a dragnet, had broken into pieces in a corner.

It spreads like a spider web. Although it is still attached, it is already shaky, just like porcelain placed on the corner of the table, which may fall and break into pieces at any time.

This is the loophole that the Jade-faced Princess helped to provide.

The breath-retaining method is in operation.

Ding Lin gathered all his magical strength and slammed into the corner again. The porcelain shattered, and the seal that had imprisoned him for a long time finally opened a little.

A faint demonic aura tentatively attached itself to him.

He put it away as soon as he tried it and didn't dare to take it out of his body.

And below, after receiving enough emotional value.

Princess Halloween immersed herself in her practice again.
