The Supreme One

Chapter 446 The Dual Influence of Self and the World

Although the part that produces and carries self-consciousness is only a small part of the body, it is the one that truly dominates and controls the body.

How can the future reflected by the soul skip the dominance of this body?

Therefore, self-awareness itself is also an extremely critical factor affecting the soul.

The restraint of self-consciousness will naturally restrain the soul, preventing it from expanding at will, and naturally it will not break through the constraints of the body's rules.

But he didn't even figure out where he came from and why he came.

He had all sorts of speculations.

Super testing ground?

The outsider's last resort?

A little trick from the Supreme God?

. . .

But obviously, there is no basis for it.

After all, he was too ordinary in the past, and no means should be used on him.

At least when he conducts experiments or sets up tricks, he will never choose his former self.

Moreover, this world is so real and powerful that it would be difficult to achieve an illusory simulation through computing.

And no matter what, the knowledge he learned cannot be false.

Everything in the world may be false, except mathematics!

It may be limited, but it is never false.

Xia Xian had no way of finding out the truth behind this, he could only work hard to improve himself. As long as he was strong enough, one day he would know the answers to everything.

The reason why he was able to avoid damaging his body even when his soul was stronger than his body was because he had restrained his self-consciousness!

How can self-consciousness be restrained? Is thinking unlimited?

Of course not. Although thinking can diverge arbitrarily, it still has its foundation, which is cognition!

Or it can be said to be knowledge. Only when you know something can your thinking diverge on this basis.

Similarly, the more solid the knowledge and the firmer the cognition, the more solid the self-awareness will be. Just like Xia Xian has now constructed a knowledge system, so that his self-awareness will not be greatly shaken even if it is subjected to a huge information shock.

If it were someone else, perhaps their self-awareness would be disrupted.

This also shows from the side that cognition and knowledge are also part of self-awareness.

And the soul that originates from this is obviously also affected by this.

The strength of the soul is the depth of its extension into the future.

It seems that this is indeed an illusory conceptual thing. How can it be reinforced by something that actually exists in the world?

The key lies in spirituality!

Just as the Soul Clan can strengthen themselves by devouring the spirituality of other spiritual creatures, it is also similar to other cultivators using soul objects to strengthen their souls, both of which can enhance the strength of their own souls.

As well as the currently truly universal method of strengthening the soul, which is to imprint the spiritual pattern information into the soul to strengthen the soul.

But just as Xia Xian had previously believed about the blank soul and the solidified soul occupied by external polluted information, this kind of reinforcement is like forcibly inserting and stacking a bunch of solidified information into the originally divergent future.

From then on, when the soul radiates into the future, it always carries these solidified possibilities with it.

And its own convergence on the soul will limit the scope of the soul's divergence, giving it a relatively clear direction.

In this way, the future, which seems infinite but is actually finite, is partially occupied by some fixed information.

Naturally, these parts can no longer be changed at will, and the future they can feel themselves is still the future that can still diverge on its own.

It seems to increase the possibilities for one's future, but how can the solidified possibilities be the future?

This also made Xia Xian realize that the key to strengthening the soul lies in harmony!

Even with enough accumulated knowledge, he could still restrain his soul on his own, just like he did before, and not let the soul oppress his body.

And the correct way to strengthen the soul is obviously not to fill it directly.

Combined with the fact that Xia Xian had previously gone to the library in the academy and suddenly absorbed a large amount of original spiritual power, which rapidly increased the strength of his body and soul, this made Xia Xian realize the key to strengthening the soul.

Stimulate the body!

The soul is based on the reality of the future and is a deduction of the future.

Just like when Xia Xian’s physical strength far exceeded that of his soul, without deliberately strengthening his soul, his soul was also growing little by little on its own, deducing a more distant future based on the foundation of his body.

But why did the soul, which was originally growing little by little, increase rapidly after the body suddenly absorbed a large amount of original spiritual power?

This requires us to consider another factor, the influence of this world.

After all, no matter what, these individuals live in the world.

Their future will naturally be affected by the world.

It even stands to reason that their souls should not exist without being connected to the world.

It is as if all other races and even life forms, except humans, can only give birth to their souls by connecting with the world.

The most obvious thing is that the souls of other ordinary animals and creatures appear only after they have absorbed spiritual power and successfully become spiritual animals.

In addition, no matter how strong the body is or how smart it is, it does not have a soul.

The vast majority of animals in the world are unintelligent, but when these huge numbers accumulate, some very intelligent ones will mutate and grow.

Unfortunately, no matter what, there has never been a case of a soul being born before the spirit is successfully awakened and the spiritual power is integrated into the physical body.

So in this world, soul-soul is the combination of spirit and soul.

Spirit refers to spiritual power, and soul refers to oneself. Only when there is spiritual power can there be a soul.

But the human race is an exception, and it's not just Xia Xian. There is also Sheng Wuya who is right beside him.

When one's own spirituality reaches that limit, the soul will be born on its own!

Among the various records that Xia Xian had read, there were many such cases. Even the presence or absence of a soul and the strength of the soul were important factors in judging a person's potential.

There will naturally be a significant difference between those with souls and those who have not yet condensed their souls when it comes to blood fusion. Those with souls can obviously better suppress and calm the turmoil during blood fusion.

All these things show that human beings are indeed extremely peculiar beings.

Xia Xian was not clear about the principle behind this, but it was not a problem for other races. Everything was determined by heaven and earth, and this was the theorem of the world.

However, it can also be seen from here that the growth of the soul is indeed influenced by both self and world factors.

The original spiritual power of Lord Gu Rong is actually equivalent to the world's blessing to him, allowing him to truly feel and accept the information integrated into the world.

With such a huge amount of information, Xia Xian had a strong enough self-awareness and mathematics as a tool to analyze the world, which allowed him to successfully absorb and digest it.
