What is the soul?

After Cheng Kong sat down, he immediately started to think about this question.

If you cannot understand this concept, I am afraid that even if Cheng Kong sits here for the rest of his life, it will be useless.

When he thought of his soul, Cheng Kong naturally thought of the cemetery-type three-pole army ghost.

Is ghost a soul?

Cheng Kong chuckled and shook his head, not counting.

Ghosts are indeed not souls, at most they are spiritual bodies.

Should the soul be an aggregation of human consciousness? Or the manifestation of thinking waves?

Cheng Kong's mind was churning, and various explanations of the soul appeared in his mind.

I don’t know how long it took, but Cheng Kong finally opened his eyes. While opening his eyes, a golden light flashed in his eyes, but he stared at his right hand.

After a long time, a dark blue flame slowly appeared on Cheng Kong's right palm.

At first glance, this dark blue flame looked quite similar to the soul flame of the undead.

Although Cheng Kong failed to reveal his soul during this thought, he found another way to adapt.

In essence, this dark blue flame is indeed almost the same as the soul flame of the undead.

The soul flame is originally a flame generated by the broken soul of the undead. With this thing, the undead can move.

Cheng Kong's dark blue soul flame is a soul flame simulated by using the rules he understands and mental power.

To be precise, this dark blue soul flame is far worse than the real soul flame, but this soul flame can give Cheng Kong the opportunity to display the ability to copy the illusion of the clone.

Cheng Kong came to the edge of the island turtle, and looked at the unstable sea water in the island turtle's air mask. His left hand passed through the soul flame. Then a little blue flame ejected from the soul flame. After drawing an arc in the air, it fell into the sea water.

With a dull low sound, the sea water immediately boiled, and the dark blue flames were still burning in the sea water, without any sign of extinguishing.

Afterwards, the flame was driven up by a column of water, and the column of water that rushed out of the sea quickly changed, constantly changing towards the direction of the human figure.

Finally, more than ten seconds later, the water column turned into Cheng Kong's appearance.

At this moment, a trace of spiritual connection was created between Cheng Kong and the illusion of the clone. Driven by Cheng Kong, the illusion of the clone stepped on the sea water and rushed to the back of the island turtle and stood in front of Cheng Kong.

Cheng Kong looked around the clone illusion and couldn't help but nod. Although he looked carefully, it still had a little water luster, which made the clone illusion somewhat different from the real person. However, this is the first time Cheng Kong used this ability, which is already very good.

Then Cheng Kong pointed his right hand and summoned a group of fire elements in the open space outside the gate.

Since this clone illusion has been summoned, we need to test how powerful it is.

Cheng Kong then issued an order to destroy these fire elements towards his clone illusion.

This clone illusion is different from the illusion copied by spells. It has a ball of soul fire in its body, so it can act on its own according to the command to a certain extent, or even extend itself according to the command.

Simply put, this clone illusion has a little consciousness of Cheng Kong, so that he can act according to Cheng Kong's behavioral rules.

Of course, this ability also extends a disadvantage from this. If the ontology's behavioral consciousness tends to be cowardly, the created clone illusion will easily escape in battle or shrink back.

Fortunately, Cheng Kong's behavioral consciousness is more passionate than blood, otherwise, this ability would be considered useless.

As soon as Cheng Kong ordered, the clone illusion immediately turned into a stream of light and rushed into the group of fire elements. In a blink of an eye, a group of fire elements were directly blown by the clone illusion's fist and sputtered into the fire light.

In a few seconds, hundreds of fire elements were washed away by the clone's illusion.

The clone's illusion stood in the residual fire, with no scar on its body.

In the previous battle, Cheng Kong could see clearly that the clone's illusion was hit by a lot of attacks.

But compared to the ordinary illusion that is extremely fragile and will collapse after touching it, this clone illusion inherits Cheng Kong's extremely powerful defense.

Of course, this clone illusion only inherited part of Cheng Kong's strength. As for how much it inherited, these fire elements could not be tested at all.

However, even so, Cheng Kong probably estimated that the strength of this clone illusion was at least above the level seven troops.

The only problem is that the clone's illusion does not look like him. Think about it slowly. Cheng Kong then waved the soul flame in his hand, and another flame flew into the sea.

And the clone illusion created this time is slightly closer to Cheng Kong's own image.

After consuming the soul flame, Cheng Kong created a total of five clone illusions. Although the last clone illusion is somewhat different from Cheng Kong's body in appearance, it is quite good, which is quite good compared to the first clone illusion.

After a little rest and replenishing some fat, Cheng Kong squeezed into the gap in the palace gate again with the illusion of five clones.

With Cheng Kong's current mental power, he can only create an illusion of five-headed clones.

Jumping into the sea and sinking to the bottom of the sea, the premonition of danger brought by the fine sand monster had completely disappeared, but Cheng Kong could also feel that there was a hint of danger that appeared about five nautical miles ahead, and when he passed, he could not detect any movement.

Then, the five-headed clone illusion formed an arrow in front and Cheng Kong behind, and walked slowly towards the front.

When Cheng Kong saw the danger before he arrived, his mouth couldn't help but open his mouth wide. If it weren't for the air hood covering his body, he might have swallowed a lot of sea water.

What appeared in front of Cheng Kong was a huge snail standing on the bottom of the sea. Its height was about 1,000 meters, and the chassis was large, making it look thick and bulky.

The surface of this huge snail showed a faint golden flesh, slowly squirming, hundreds of tentacles inserted into the seabed, as if they were swallowing something, and substances continued to spread to the shell through the tentacles.

What's this?

This was the first time Cheng Kong saw such a creature. After a moment of stunned silence, he immediately drove a clone to approach the huge snail.

Cheng Kong originally thought that the clone illusion would be attacked violently, but even if the clone illusion stood in front of the huge snail, the huge snail did not move at all. It quietly pierced on the bottom of the sea, and honestly devoured the substance extracted from the bottom of the sea, completely ignoring the clone illusion that was approaching.

If anyone does not offend me, I will not offend others. After Cheng Kong silently recited in his heart, he was ready to bypass this strange giant snail and continue to move forward.

After all, Cheng Kong was unwilling to get involved with such a guy for no reason. No matter what, guys like this with golden light were divine creatures, and they had some special abilities.

If you are not careful, you will put yourself in danger.

The golden sea monsters before and the fine sand monsters behind them all fully illustrate this point.

However, after a few seconds, Cheng Kong had to give up his previous plan.

The reason is very simple. After Cheng Kong bypassed the huge snail, he immediately discovered a problem.

There is no way out.

The seabed in front of me could not see the end at first glance, but after Cheng Kong walked for more than ten minutes, he turned his head and saw that the huge snail was not far away from him.

If someone else came, they might think that the huge snail was quietly following him, but Cheng Kong knew that the huge snail had not moved at all.

Because in order to prevent him from being attacked by the huge snail, Cheng Kong placed a clone illusion next to the huge snail.

If the huge snail is following you, then the clone's illusion will not be able to move. At this time, the clone's illusion is next to the huge snail, without any movement.

This means that after walking for more than ten minutes, I was actually trapped in an inexplicable cycle. Although I had walked a lot of roads, I didn’t move at all.

Cheng Kong couldn't help but be shocked, and then his mental power was concentrated in front of him. After watching for a while, his brows frowned.

The spatial rules at the bottom of the sea in front of me have been completely changed, and with Cheng Kong's brief understanding of space, it is impossible for him to see through the loopholes in the changed spatial rules at all.

This also means that Cheng Kong cannot pass through this seabed.

Of course, Cheng Kong could also guess that the huge snail was probably the key to the seabed.

Otherwise, it wouldn't have been here.

After understanding this, Cheng Kong had to turn around and start planning how to deal with this huge snail.

On the surface, this huge snail should not have much attack power, but this still needs to be tested.

Under Cheng Kong's command, a clone phantom pounced on the huge snail.

Compared with Cheng Kong's original body, the weapons of these clone illusions are their own fists, and they do not need to change weapons like the serrated sword.

When the clone phantom hit the shell of the huge snail with a punch, several sharp thorns emerged from the clone phantom's fist and pierced into the fleshy shell. After that, the spike began to vibrate violently, and a light bang sound was heard, and a light golden liquid mixed with meat paste sprayed out from the fleshy shell. Not only did the clone phantom spray, but it also spread out around, forming a faint golden mist.

After one blow, the clone's illusion immediately pulled away and left.

The wound caused by this blow is only five or six meters deep, which is far lower than the damage that the clone illusion should cause when using the resonance technique. For the huge snail with a kilometer-long body, it is as insignificant as being stabbed by a needle.

But in this moment, the huge snail that had been rooted in the sea before changed. The wound that was stabbed out by the phantom of the clone immediately recovered quickly, a bulge appeared on the lower part of the huge snail. It was initially only more than one meter in diameter, but it quickly expanded.

What is this? Cheng Kong observed it for a moment and felt that there was not much danger. At this time, the bulge had expanded to a diameter of more than ten meters.

Cheng Kong then let the clone's illusion attack towards the rapidly expanding bulge.

Under the attack of the spike of the clone's illusion, the bulge burst out in just a moment, and after a ball of golden mist sprayed out, a ball of soft film fell out of the bulge.

Although the soft film had been exploded with a big hole, Cheng Kong saw it clearly.

This soft membrane is wrapped with an embryo, an embryo with a diameter of more than eight meters.

Although it is just an embryo, its characteristics can also be seen.

The streamlined body is wrapped in a layer of soft fleshy armor, with six arthropods and a pair of tongs, which looks like a combination of fish and lobsters.

As the embryo was blown up, the movement of the huge snail became violent, and then three more bulging appeared on the lower part.

There is no doubt that the embryos are still found in these three bulbs.

As a result, Cheng Kong felt much more relieved. Obviously, this huge snail itself does not have much combat power, and its combat power is the creatures cultivated in its body.

In this case, as long as the buns are washed away, the huge snail will have no power of resistance.

After thinking of this, Cheng Kong waved his hand and the five-headed clone pounced on the huge snail from all directions. Sharp thorns emerged from the fist, and they pierced the huge snail.

As for Cheng Kong himself, he was not in a hurry to participate in the battle. He still needed to wait to prevent this huge snail from having any hidden secret tricks.
