Chapter 322: One Qi Transforms into Three Purities

~16 min read 3,081 words

Er Bai?

The air became quiet in an instant.

No one cared about this perfunctory name; what shocked everyone was that the Spirit Soul actually had independent thoughts!

In the Cultivation World, there is no lack of techniques for the Spirit Soul to leave the body, but under normal circumstances, when the Spirit Soul leaves, the original body either dies or loses the ability to act.

For a big shot like Qingyun, the original body is a green wood, but after Qingyun condensed, the green wood acting as the main body would not have autonomous consciousness. For a Spirit Soul to possess its own consciousness is equivalent to creating a person out of thin air, which completely exceeded everyone's cognition...

Xu Longyun looked at the incarnation in disbelief, then looked at Lin Bai: "You... he..."

"I am I."

"He is he."

Lin Bai and the incarnation said in unison.

Back then.

Relying on his super-strong Mental Power, Lin Bai could use Ventriloquism to handle two different tasks simultaneously with his flying mouth.

Now, two unique perspectives were split in his mind, just like dual-line operation in a game, and it was the kind that automatically substituted itself; it was even simpler to control than back then.

"You look exactly like Master, do you also have the same skills as Master?" The little white fox picked up the leaf that the incarnation was using to cover his body and fanned herself with it, not feeling that there was anything wrong with that leaf at all, or rather, she was doing it on purpose.

"Xiaobai, whatever your master can do, I can do." The incarnation looked at the little white fox, blinked, and a Heavenly River circled around the little white fox.

The little white fox's eyes suddenly widened.

The incarnation is essentially Lin Bai's own Spirit Soul, and the rewards provided by the system can be cast as soon as the target is seen, without consuming Spiritual Power or Internal Energy.

Therefore, he can naturally cast divine abilities such as Heavenly River and Flash.

But the Spirit Soul incarnation is different from the Great Demon Disintegration; it cannot share the original body's Spiritual Power, so Lin Bai cannot use those Martial Arts that require Internal Energy, or various Daoist arts and spells shared with Puppets...

There are pros and cons.

"Master, is this also a Law?" Ye Song asked.

"Not a Law, it is a divine ability," Lin Bai said. "Just now, I had an epiphany while watching the Heavenly Tribulation and realized a divine ability called 'One Qi Transforms into Three Purities', so I split off Er Bai."

One can also realize a divine ability by watching the Heavenly Tribulation?

What kind of talent is this, damn it?

No wonder Lin Bai comprehends Laws as simply as eating and drinking?

No wonder the Justice Alliance would send him out to wreak havoc on the world?

Comparing people to others is infuriating!

The crowd was speechless for a while.

The looks they gave Lin Bai were full of envy and jealousy...

But the monstrous talent Lin Bai displayed also brought them new hope; this hope did not come from Lin Bai, but from the Justice Alliance behind him.

The Heavenly Tribulation is terrifying, that is true, but the Justice Alliance behind Lin Bai seems even more terrifying. Lin Bai is so excellent, the Justice Alliance would definitely not let him fall during the lightning tribulation, right!

That's it!

The Nine Ancestors are skilled in the art of Fortune Telling.

If they knew Lin Bai would fall during the lightning tribulation, they would definitely have prepared countermeasures for him in advance. Since they didn't prepare any, then perhaps the lightning tribulation is difficult, but he will definitely be able to pass through it safely!

"One Qi Transforms into Three Purities?" Ye Song examined the incarnation, becoming more and more shocked, "That is to say, Master can split off more than just one... one... Junior Uncle?"

He stammered several times before finding a suitable form of address following the incarnation's logic.

"Yes, theoretically possible."

Lin Bai glanced in the direction of the players and nodded.

He didn't mind his strength being exposed; the stronger the strength he displayed, the more wary those guys outside would be of him.

At that time, no matter what kind of growth and decisions he had, he could harvest a large amount of Emotion Value from the outside, and these were all wealth.

One Qingyun cost him one-third of his inventory; Lin Bai had to find a way to grow the fruit back to feel balanced in his heart.

"Master shouldn't have let Junior Uncle be born within the Heavenly Tribulation," Ancestor Tuohai looked at Lin Erbai with regret, as if he had already seen his fate, and he sighed, "The lightning tribulation is the natural enemy of the Spirit Soul; if one is not careful, one will fall."

"No matter, Er Bai is just for verification; San Bai is the real trump card," Lin Bai smiled and led the crowd onto the Magpie Bridge.

This Magpie Bridge led directly to the edge of the Heavenly Tribulation. It was a bridge specifically built by Lin Bai to explore how large the coverage of the Heavenly Tribulation was.

The crowd arrived at the edge of the Heavenly Tribulation, curious to see how Lin Bai would perform One Qi Transforms into Three Purities.

Lin Bai didn't keep them waiting long; he performed the Defect Incarnation again. With a moment of dizziness, a brand new Lin Bai incarnation appeared outside the Heavenly Tribulation.

At the same time, a third perspective opened up in his mind.

This time it was the perspective of watching the lightning tribulation from the outside.

I have to say, standing outside the lightning tribulation and watching the person undergoing the tribulation is truly spectacular and shocking.

Lin Bai had eaten I don't know how many Spirit Fruits, and his Spirit Soul was condensed to be even more powerful than Qingyun's; the Spirit Soul incarnation split off would not cause him much trouble at all.

Even if there were real damage, at worst he would just eat more Spirit Fruits, and this little loss would be made up for.

This time.

Lin Bai was much smarter.

The moment the Spirit Soul incarnation came out, he conjured clothes for himself so as not to be exposed in front of ten thousand people again.

He had to maintain the dignity of the Justice Alliance Alliance Leader and could not let those old guys take advantage of him.

The Spirit Soul incarnation appeared outside the Heavenly Tribulation.

The Heavenly Tribulation remained indifferent and did not lock onto him. Lin Bai let out a light breath; it was a success.

"He really got out?" Tuohai looked at the Lin Bai incarnation that appeared outside the lightning tribulation, his face full of astonishment.

"Naturally, I came out," the new incarnation cupped his hands at the crowd and smiled faintly, "Fellow Daoists, you may call me Lin Sanbai."

San Bai smiled, and the Skill 'I Smile When I See You' was immediately activated.

Everyone was forced to reveal a smile.

Lin Bai was no exception.

He finally understood from the perspective of an outsider the embarrassment of being forced to smile.

It must be said, this Skill is truly disgusting...

"Junior Brother San Bai, I am trapped within the lightning tribulation and cannot get out. The interests of the Justice Alliance have been encroached upon quite a bit, so I must trouble Junior Brother San Bai to handle matters outside." Lin Bai feigned a gesture of cupping his hands toward the split Spirit.

"It is my duty." Lin Sanbai returned the gesture, "Senior Brother, the world is so vast, I fear I cannot handle it alone. If there could be one more Junior Brother, it would be even better."

"As you wish." Lin Bai nodded and split off another Spirit Soul, and subsequently, a third perspective appeared in his mind.

With three perspectives appearing simultaneously, Lin Bai finally felt a trace of chaos.

After all.

All three split Spirits were controlled by him, rather than possessing their own true consciousness, and he still had to deal with over a dozen systems in his mind at the same time.

Splitting off one more Spirit would not lead to schizophrenia, but it would very likely cause one of them to suddenly go offline...

Lin Bai sighed inwardly; it was a pity that his dream of ruling the world through Spirit Soul clones could not be realized for the time being.

With three Spirit Soul clones appearing in succession, everyone was stunned.

Ye Song muttered: "Is this the One Qi Transforms into Three Purities? Truly miraculous. With four Lin Bais acting together, who in the world could be his opponent?"

"It is a pity that what was split off is a Spirit Soul, not a true body. Spirit Souls fear lightning, fear sunlight, fear flames... there are too many taboos." Ancestor Nan Rong shook his head and said.

"San Bai, Si Bai, those who achieve great things do not fuss over trifles. The Justice Alliance does not have many friends in this world, but it has plenty of enemies. If anyone truly dares to defy the world and take action against you, simply borrow their bodies for Soul Possession and rebirth." Lin Bai's heart stirred, and he openly instructed the two split Spirits outside.

"Great benevolence, many thanks for the instruction, Senior Brother."

The two split Spirits cupped their hands and returned the salute to Lin Bai simultaneously.

This was not schizophrenia; this was a rehearsal in advance.

After all, Lin Bai had to use two different perspectives simultaneously; if he messed up and said the wrong lines, or if the scenes got mixed up, it would appear foolish!

Lin Bai turned his head to look at the few players and asked: "Has the news been sent out?"

【Happy Without Reservation】 was stunned for a moment and said: "It has been sent out."

"It is good that it has been sent out." Lin Bai nodded with satisfaction, "Having stayed in the lightning tribulation for too long, the people outside have already lost their sense of awe for me. How can there be any reason for them to scheme against me and get away with it so easily? It is simply wishful thinking. It is time to let the world remember the fear of being dominated by the Justice Alliance!"

"..." Everyone inside the lightning tribulation mourned for the sects outside. It had only been a few days of peace, and Lin Bai had already found a way to go out and wreak havoc. No one would believe it if someone said he wasn't a demon of a chaotic world!

"Even the lightning tribulation cannot trap him. Is Lin Bai truly the nemesis of us Cultivators?" Upon learning that Lin Bai had split off two Spirit Soul clones outside the lightning tribulation, the Sect Master of the Shengji Sect could not help but sigh, frowning as he spoke.

"Sect Master need not worry. It is merely two Spirit Souls, not Lin Bai in person. Throughout history, how many have succeeded in Soul Possession? Even if the possession is successful, the Spirit Soul is mostly damaged and loses its intelligence..."

Lu Wei of Wanhun Valley said dismissively, "Wanhun Valley has plenty of methods to drive away or destroy souls. If Lin Bai's Spirit Souls stay quiet and don't provoke us, that is fine. If they dare to act recklessly, we can just find a few Ghost Kings to devour his two clones..."

"The Valley Master is right." The Holy Master shook his head and said, "What I fear is that Lin Bai's Spirit Souls might also possess some strange tricks."

"No matter how many strange tricks they have, they are still just two Spirit Souls. Lin Bai's true body is already controlled by us, so why fear his two Spirit Souls?" Qu Chaozong said, "If Sect Master Lu's method doesn't work, at worst we can find two more people undergoing Tribulation Transcendence and lure Lin Bai's Spirit Souls into the lightning tribulation. Without crossing the Ten Thousand People Tribulation, taking along a mere Spirit Soul shouldn't affect the ascension."

"Lin Bai is so eager to split off his Spirit Souls, fearing he knows his days are numbered and is preparing a way out for himself. I think the Spirit Souls shouldn't act too recklessly." Ye Luo chuckled and said, "We will continue to follow the requirements Lin Bai previously proposed, hold the cooking competition for him, and send the supplies he wants outside the lightning tribulation to appease that madman. Do not give him a chance to go on a rampage, don't let him wander around with the lightning tribulation, and wait for him to be struck into fly ash by the lightning tribulation. The two mere Spirit Souls are truly not worth worrying about."

"Sect Master Ye's words are very true." Qu Chaozong said, "Lin Bai acts barbarically, yet he likes to occupy the moral high ground, wanting a righteous excuse for everything he does. This time, he spoke such arrogant words about Soul Possession, likely to provoke us into doing something irrational. Then he would have an excuse to bring the lightning tribulation to stir up the world and fight for a chance for his Spirit Souls to survive. We should do the opposite and not give him that chance; that is the correct path..."

The Demon Master looked around at everyone and smiled: "Doesn't Lin Bai want to perform Soul Possession? We might as well do him a favor and find two Cultivators who have no hope of breaking through for him to possess. Once the Spirit Soul enters the body, firstly, the intelligence will be damaged, and secondly, the memories will be forcibly blocked, easily controlling his Spirit Soul."

The people of the Demonic Five Sects did not take Lin Bai's two Spirit Soul clones seriously.

The players, however, were somewhat troubled. The Cultivators had accumulated many ways to deal with Spirit Souls and were not afraid of Lin Bai, but they were!

No matter how fragile Lin Bai's Spirit Souls were, those Fazhe Zhidao were enough to give them a headache.

"Like a lingering ghost, he really won't stop!" In the Blood Sect, 【Scab of the Herd】 couldn't help but curse, saying to the people in front of him, "I suspect that this time, Lin Bai is targeting the players. He must have found out that we occupied his Blood Sect and used his Blood Sect to develop ourselves."

"That's impossible, no one told him!" 【Silver】 said, "The four players on the Green Wood have been livestreaming the whole time. Lin Bai never asked them about the Blood Sect from beginning to end. How would he know?"

"Divination Technique." 【Scab of the Herd】 glanced at him and said, "Or he simply guessed it. Lin Bai has the intelligence to see the big picture from small details, and furthermore, he has never trusted the players."

"Don't worry about how he knows. Lin Bai's split Spirits will definitely return to the Blood Sect. We must find a way to deal with him." 【Fish Paddling】 said, "The Blood Sect has abundant resources. We finally found a stable territory; we cannot let him ruin it again. That guy is restless; once he starts making trouble, we will never have peaceful days again."

"How about letting 【Lao Mi】 come forward and say that you are all people he newly recruited into the Justice Alliance?" 【Huangye Lang】 said.

"If Lin Bai were that easy to fool, it would be simple." On the livestream screen, 【Eagle of Foresight】 said, "These days, the 'Justice Weekly' has basically remained unchanged, and there is news smearing Lin Bai everywhere among the common people. As long as he learns a little, he will become suspicious. Even if we fool him, what if he takes the players to look for trouble everywhere? Currently, what we need is a stable environment, not to be Lin Bai's followers..."

"Spirit Souls fear light and lightning. Let's just go all the way and find a way to kill him!" 【Scab of the Herd】 said, "None of us can trigger a lightning tribulation, but using scientific methods, it is very easy to simulate a lightning environment. When necessary, Ultraviolet Ray and Infrared Ray—if we can't kill Lin Bai, can't we kill one of his Spirit Souls?"

"If his Spirit Soul clone is killed, what if his true body senses it and brings the lightning tribulation to level the Blood Sect?" 【Silver】 hesitated for a moment and asked.

"The natives fear the lightning tribulation, but what do we fear?" 【Fish Paddling】 said, "You guys only lost one level when you died coming out of the lightning tribulation. Moreover, besides players, there are also the native subordinates that Lin Bai worked so hard to integrate in the Blood Sect. He won't easily bring the lightning tribulation to destroy the Blood Sect."

"We can also frame the Seven Righteous Sects or the Demonic Five Sects." 【Scab of the Herd】 said, "We want to develop, and the Seven Righteous Sects and the Demonic Five Sects are ultimately obstacles. The way Lin Bai obtains information from the outside world is through our people. We can completely use them to frame the Seven Righteous Sects and the Demonic Five Sects for killing Lin Bai's clone. If Lin Bai can really bring the lightning tribulation to level those sects, it would be too beneficial for us."

"It's worth a try. For long-term development, the necessary risks must be taken." 【Eagle of Foresight】 said, "Lin Bai's Spirit Souls left the Shengji Sect without using the Magpie Bridge method, proving that their strength is far from Lin Bai's. If we can't even kill a Spirit Soul, we might as well collectively quit this world and stop hanging around here."

"Have you considered what to do if the Seven Righteous Sects and the Demonic Five Sects are provoked?" 【Longxi】 said.

"The transmission of information is in our hands. We want them to know whatever reason we choose, and it will be that reason. It's too easy to fool them." 【Fish Paddling】 sneered, "Those natives rely on player communication everywhere, and Lin Bai is prone to going back on his word. If we plan it well, they won't suspect us."
