As he endured the pain, Zhou Shu did not speak, his expression was stagnant, and he seemed to have realized something. ≠

"Is that true?"

His soul was extremely tough. Even if it was a little bit like entering Wushuang City, it would not be possible to break. But the facts were born, and it was absolutely true. He could feel that the soul he had lost had gone away and would not come back. With the almost unbearable pain, he was almost certain that when he was here, he was deprived of everything about the soul, and his previous cultivation effect was gone. At this time, he only had souls, no difference from mortals.

He had similar experiences before, but spiritual power and other things were taken away. What was taken away here was the god in the soul, only Benchu's soul was left, and all the protections on the outer layer were cleared.

Maybe it was the formation, or maybe it was another reason, but the result was clear.

Looking at the broken arm on the edge of Zhou Shu, he smiled bitterly, "I lost my arm as soon as I came in, and what's interesting is that the part that can go out fell. God's will, it seems that I am destined to have to go out."

Looking around, I don’t know which floor it is on, but the space is not large, and the exit is dozens of feet away, so it doesn’t seem to be difficult to walk.

Without spiritual consciousness, I naturally couldn't feel anything around me. Zhou Shu didn't think much about it and walked towards the exit.

As soon as he took a step, countless flames suddenly emerged from the ground and instantly spread. Except where he was standing, the rest of the place was surrounded by flames and suddenly became a sea of ​​fire.

"ah!"

This time, Zhou Shu couldn't help but scream.

Although he closed his feet quickly, he was already burned by the scorching flames, and his right foot suddenly became black, emitting an unpleasant smell of burnt.

Here, the soul suffers much more pain than the outside world. Not only can the physical pain be seen or felt, but the unprepared soul also suffers similar pain, reaching the bottom of the heart naked.

Looking at the exit that was only dozens of feet long, Zhou Shu hesitated, "Can you walk over this?"

Although the fire in the sea of ​​fire seems to be only at the second level and not far away, he is just a mortal soul at this time.

Nine-story tower top.

Two figures suddenly appeared and stopped in front of the white dragon.

At this time, the white dragon did not cover his body with black fog, and his appearance was completely revealed. He was an extremely handsome man, looking at Zhou Shu in the tower coldly, without a trace of expression on his face.

"Go in?"

Qingque glanced along with a lot of worries in his eyes, "Ah, I've broken my hands."

"That's for sure. No one has ever been able to enter the Nine-story Tower intact. It's good to just break one hand."

The city lord nodded, "It seems that he is lucky, but the Fire Sea Level is very simple in the lower nine levels."

“Is it simple?”

Qingque shook his head, "He is just a soul incarnation, not a soul, he has no defensive means, and he is not strong enough to endure much pain. Once the pain passes the boundary, he can only die, and he is really dead, and the soul that comes in completely disappears."

As she said that, she became a little excited, "City Lord, to be honest, I really don't understand here. Why do I turn an immortal cultivator into a mortal and then test it again. You must know that after the immortal cultivator escapes from the mortal, it has nothing to do with the mortal. This is really redundant. Can't it be better to let the immortal cultivator exert his own abilities and use various magic tricks to pass the test?"

The city lord showed a hint of solemnity, "What you said makes sense. It should be like this for most immortal cultivators, but Zhou Shu is different. He has a lot of things to bear, and we must also have higher requirements for him. These nine-story towers are open to him alone."

"But what are the benefits of this?"

Qingque was a little puzzled, "He has lost some of his soul, which is not only of no benefit to himself, but has also suffered a lot. Even if he gets something, when he changes from the mortal soul and restores to his original state, wouldn't it mean he gets nothing?"

“No.”

The city lord shook his head, "The benefits are great. If he can pass this level of tower, it means that he can break through the limit of his soul and his soul reaches a higher level. Even if he leaves the nine-story tower, this will not change. Simply put, the nine-story tower is to recast the soul, with the purpose of improving the initial qualification of his soul."

Qingque seemed to have some understanding, "Initial qualification?"

"right."

The city lord nodded seriously, "Everyone's body has initial qualifications, which are specifically manifested as the purity of the spiritual roots, the degree of opening of the qi veins, whether there are special bloodlines, etc. The initial qualifications are naturally destined, but they can also be changed after birth, magic tricks, elixirs, etc. You also understand these, and the soul also has initial qualifications, both strong and weak, but unlike the body, the initial qualifications of the soul are difficult to change after birth."

Qingque suspected, "Aren't there many magic tricks and spiritual objects to increase the soul and consciousness?"

The city lord shook his head slightly, "You also said that what is growing is the soul, not the soul. The soul and soul are different. One is destined by innateness, and the other is obtained by acquired cultivation."

Qingque hurriedly said, "I was wrong. Is there any great benefit to the improvement of the soul?"

The city lord nodded, showing seriousness, "Of course, for the soul, even if the qualification is improved, it will greatly increase the soul. This is the case with a mortal soul and a monk's bunch of gods."

Qingque was surprised, "So big..."

The city lord looked at Zhou Shu below and slowly said, "No, but it is extremely difficult to recast the soul and improve the initial qualifications of the soul."

Ancient legends say that the soul of a mortal is reincarnated after suffering in the eighteenth level of hell underground. The more hell they have experienced, the more tenacity and stronger the soul they generate. If they can pass through all the eighteenth level of hell, they may generate natural souls, which can be regarded as the best qualification for a cultivator. This is just a legend. However, the city lord built a nine-story tower in Wushuang City, turning the legend into reality, allowing the cultivator to suffer in the nine-story tower. The more tower layers they spend, the more souls they can grow. Recasting the soul will improve the unfair initial qualifications. After leaving the tower, the soul will benefit more, and there will be a qualitative improvement in a short period of time.

Of course, that is the result of passing through the nine-story tower. If it cannot pass through, the soul will disappear from the tower and disappear.

For Zhou Shu, although he will not lose this wisp of soul, it will inevitably affect future fusion and the possibility of advancing to the realm of tribulation will be greatly reduced.

After listening to the city lord's explanation, Qingque murmured in a low voice, "If he fails, he will be in a hurry. If he can't get out, the city lord and our hope will be gone. City lord, you should explain it to him first."

"The moment he entered the tower, he understood."

The city lord said calmly, "If he passes, he will naturally get great benefits, and our chances will be greater. He chose to be with us and we also recognized him. Then he must go through the path of recasting his soul. You know, he is not a body of hundreds of souls. Although he is very talented in spirit, his initial qualifications are still a little worse."
