The small courtyard regained its peace and tranquility.
Luo Kai lowered his head and looked at his arms that were condensed from starlight. He was slightly absent-minded.
When he further explored the four-dimensional cognition, he finally understood the principle of the mind controlling matter. It was actually not complicated. To put it simply, it was a program invasion.
Heaven and earth, everything in the universe was a product of programming. The mind was also a kind of program built from the original code. It could not be seen or touched, but it was the only imprint of an individual's existence. It was the "I" in "I Think, Therefore I Am".
"I" could invade microscopic particles, and through analysis, change their atomic state. In other words, modify their inherent program code to achieve the goal of achieving what one wanted.
For example, these terrifying evil spirits were also products of programming. He directly invaded them and returned their program code to its original state, which was formatting.
The effect of appearing in the world was that they were all wiped out. There was not a trace of their existence.
"Are you a human or a ghost?" Xiao Ling boldly shouted at him.
Luo Kai raised his head and squeezed out a smile. "I should still be a human."
"No, you are not a human. You are an immortal!"
The old lady panted heavily and stood up shakily. She looked at Luo Kai with a strange expression and bowed. "The younger generation will surpass us in time. My name is Liu Qian. This is my granddaughter, Lin Cuiling. Young man, what is your name?
Can you tell me the name of your elders? "
"My name is Luo Kai. As for my parents …"
Luo Kai's voice paused. He pondered for a moment and looked up at the sky. "Maybe the heavens are my parents."
The old lady's face was full of suspicion. She thought that Luo Kai did not want to say. "Alright, thank you for tonight."
The young girl, Xiao Ling, also looked at Luo Kai in awe. She said timidly, "That … I'm sorry."
Luo Kai waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it. Old lady, what did you mean by 'immortal' just now?"
"Young man, your current form is that of an immortal. We Daoists have the Three Flowers at One's Prominence and the Five Qis at the Origin. When you reach this realm, your soul can leave your body and travel in the void!"
The old woman looked at him carefully and changed her tone. "However, your condition is not right. Your Divine Soul is showing signs of collapsing. I'm afraid that the connection between your body and soul is about to be severed. Once your soul and body are completely separated, you can only be the lowest level of Ghost Immortal. It will be difficult for you to advance in the future!"
Luo Kai's expression changed. In fact, he knew that the soul and the body must have a mysterious connection. The two were like the Yin and Yang of heaven and earth, the illusory and real of matter. Solitary Yin did not give birth, solitary Yang did not grow. Solitary Emptiness was death, and solitary Reality was life. The life and death of Yin and Yang were the "Dao"!
The old woman seemed to have seen through his worries and continued, "Humans have their Daos, ghosts have their Daos, and immortals have their Daos. There are five levels of immortals, which are:
Ghost Immortal, Human Immortal, Earth Immortal, Divine Immortal, Heaven Immortal.
Ghost Immortals are the lowest of the five levels of immortals. They can only wander at the edge of the Positive and Negative Realms. The reason why they become Ghost Immortals is that cultivators are too eager to succeed. Although the soul has a physical form, the body is like a piece of wood. Their hearts are dead, and their Divine Sense is guarded inwardly.
Luo Kai frowned. His body was about to be occupied by Evil God or other high-level existences. He did not have the confidence to deal with them. Besides, he had to find the real Dao of Sages, so he had no choice but to leave.
No one knew his current condition better than him. He was not a Ghost Immortal, but he could not guarantee that he would develop in the future. His soul had been slowly deteriorating. This process could not be stopped. Even if he swallowed some hungry ghosts, it would not help.
"Young man, I just said that humans have their Daos, and ghosts have their Daos. Since you can't achieve the Daos of Sages, why don't you cultivate the Daos of Ghosts?"
Luo Kai was very surprised. "What is the Daos of Ghosts?"
The old woman did not answer. She turned to the young girl and said, "Xiao Ling, bring our benefactor to freshen up and prepare a change of clothes."
Xiao Ling secretly looked at Luo Kai. She knew what kind of existence immortals were. It was the peak of Taoism. It was an existence that was on par with gods. Immortals, Buddhas, gods, and demons were the ultimate extremes of the universe!
She blushed and nodded hurriedly. "Okay, then … Brother Luo, come with me."
Luo Kai was just a soul body. His soul body was condensed according to the ratio of his body to that of his body. He had everything he should have. He no longer had the shame of a normal human, but others cared, especially the two women.
After changing into the clothes the young girl prepared for him, he walked out of the room.
In the courtyard, Xiao Ling was practicing swordsmanship with a wooden sword. Her sword was like thunder. It was very unique.
The key was that Luo Kai felt that this swordsmanship was somewhat similar to his Canglang Force. To be exact, it was expanded from his Canglang Force. He was very confused. It was obvious that this world was not connected to the outside world. How did the Canglang Force get in here?
He asked, "Miss Xiao Ling, have you been to school too?"
Xiao Ling rolled her eyes. Just as she was about to get angry, she suddenly remembered that this guy was an immortal or a god. Furthermore, she had never seen or heard of him before. It was as if he just waved his hand and all the terrifying Yakshas and evil spirits were annihilated. Not even a drop of blood was left.
When she thought of this, there was only respect left in her heart. She replied honestly, "I have studied and traveled in many human countries. I have even been to the largest human country, Higashimogami Province. I just became a physical master last year."
Luo Kai replied with an "oh." It seemed that this world was different from what he thought. It was not that it was not connected to the outside world.
The old woman sat in the hall and looked at the two of them with a smile. She seemed to be very satisfied.
Luo Kai turned to her and asked, "Old Madam, may I ask where this place is? I see that you are very familiar with that little girl just now."
The old woman sighed sadly and said, "This place is called the Small Huan World. According to my old man, this Small Huan World is independent from the outside world. It was originally one of the experimental grounds where the gods and devils raised living creatures. Later, the Evil God was sealed by the saints and the Small Huan World was abandoned. It became a world where humans and ghosts coexisted. After humans died, their souls would not dissipate naturally like the outside world. Instead, they would condense and take form.
Unlike the ghosts of the Hungry Ghost Path, the evil spirits formed from souls were even more terrifying. They were the most mysterious life forms of the Hell Path in the Negative Space. Fortunately, there were many plants and metals in the Small Huan World that could restrain the evil spirits. The people here could barely deal with the ghosts.
As for …. It's a sin, so I won't hide it from you. The Voidwalker Yaksha tonight is my little sister. A long time ago, my old man offended an extremely formidable evil spirit called the Ghost Mother of Mount Li, and she's occupied the area around Mount Li in the Minor Domain for a thousand years.
I don't know how the Ghost Mother found my home. She killed all of my family members and turned them all into evil spirits. My poor little sister was only ten years old, but she was also turned into an evil spirit.
Over the years, there have been problems in the Small Huan World. The Yin Qi has risen and the Yang Qi has declined. My little sister has evolved into a high-level evil spirit, the Yaksha, and recovered her memories. She hates me to the core. She always thought that if I didn't marry my old man, the tragedy wouldn't have happened. So she is determined to kill me. These days, my old man is not here, so she took the opportunity to make trouble. "
Law turned his head and looked into the distance. The starlight in his eyes flickered slightly. He asked, "Where is the Ghost Mother of Mount Li now?"
The old woman shook her head and said, "The Ghost Mother has been hiding in the Ghost Nest of Mount Li. I heard that she has spawned a large number of evil spirits over the years and has built a ghost city. Young man, although you have achieved the Immortal Body, you are only one person. It will be difficult to get rid of her. It's best to wait for my old man to come back. He is the successor of the Daoist Celestial Master Path and knows a lot about the Ghost Path. He may be able to help you."
