Chapter 503: Perceive the soul, indescribable

After separating from Ebbock, Chateau returned to his residence in the Tower of Time. The rehearsal just now made him feel exhausted. At this time, he wanted to take a good rest.
However, before falling asleep, he still has to reflect on the mistakes that have just occurred in the process of creating the Austrian fire and the areas that need improvement.
My own experience and listening to the descriptions of others are completely different feelings. [Creating Arcane Fire] This spell may be classified as 5th level, but the actual difficulty of casting is far beyond the scope of normal 5th level spells.
It's almost equivalent to casting 20 teleports at the same time!
If it weren't for a specific, isolated and weakened magic net environment, he would never be able to do so!
Of course, from another angle, if someone can cast such a spell in the normal magic net environment of the outside world, they may be able to directly create the Arcane Fire without the advanced laboratory.
With all kinds of guesses and thoughts, Xia Duo fell into a deep sleep.
...
When he woke up again, it was already the next day. Fortunately, the daily meditation is not limited to be in the morning, it only needs to be in the best mental state.
There is no problem in creating the Arcane Fire. At this moment, before Xia Duo becomes an Arcanist, there is only one soul of perception.
For the next few days, Xia Duo stayed in the Tower of Time. When the critical juncture was approaching, he didn't want to sway outside to avoid accidents. Although the possibility is very small, it is not excessive to be cautious at this time.
It has been more than seven years since the journey, including the projection plane, and finally he is about to become an arcanist.
Perhaps because of the "good spirits of every happy event", in the next few days, Xia Duo's meditation progressed very smoothly. At the end of April, Niya reminded him not to miss the snow melting competition and reached the level of perceiving the soul.
Although Master Naiser does not have equipment or devices to determine the specific concentration level, through traditional advanced concentration training, as long as he can complete the ninth stage of concentration training, it is considered to be up to the standard.
These days, in addition to meditation every day, Xia Duo will also try the concentration training of Master Nasser to control his training progress.
When he knew that he had reached the level of perceiving the soul, Xia Duo was filled with joy, not only the advancement itself, but also the expectation of more than seven years, and finally blossomed.
...
In the bedroom, Xia Duoping lay on the bed, greeting the truth of the soul with the most comfortable posture.
On the earth, the soul in the narrow sense is generally regarded as the activity of the brain, or in other words, the soul is thinking. The soul in the broad sense is the expansion and extension of the soul in the narrow sense.
But anyway, as of Xia Duo crossing, there is no evidence to prove the existence or non-existence of [Entity Soul]. (The entity is real and concrete, and its counterpart is virtual)
The magical world can make the caster perceive the soul through simple training (easy to implement). And the same training, or similar training, is entirely possible on earth.
But Xia Duo had never heard of anyone who could perceive the soul. If it could be verified on a large scale, then the soul would no longer be a vague theory.
Xia Duo has always been curious about whether he has a soul, and if he does, what does his soul look like?
Is it a light spot? Still the same as the body? Or what other form? Or indefinite form?
...
With all kinds of doubts and conjectures, Xia Duo began to perceive the soul for the first time.
There are no divine thoughts and inductions, just literal perception, just like ordinary people listening to the ears, as long as they have hearing, they can hear the sound.
Similarly, when the concentration reached a certain level, Xia Duo suddenly felt that he had entered a void. Such a real experience made him feel very incredible.
The first thing that was perceived was actually his consciousness.
Xia Duo has gone through many journeys of the projection plane before. In fact, he projected his consciousness into the projection plane in the star realm. The silver thread he saw on the way back was actually an extension of consciousness. The manifestation of the line in the astral world.
At this time, the consciousness that Xia Duo perceives is not silver thread, nor silver, but his true body, or he is similar to the spirit state.
In this state, he was able to realize that all parts of his body, including the inside, seemed transparent and very clear.
Netheril's research on the soul is not perfect, and even the book "Soul Studies" itself contains a lot of questions and speculations, and there are very few verified conclusions.
Probably the first to be verified is that consciousness is the projection of the soul on the body.
To a certain extent, consciousness is thinking, only one aspect of the soul, and another aspect of the soul, the will, is the real key to casting a spell.
Austrian fire also needs to be combined with will.
Regarding the will, the Nether Masters didn't know much, they just confirmed the existence of the will and it could be used. There were almost no relevant theories.
Just after Xia Duo perceives consciousness, he goes back further and perceives a lofty and indescribable existence, that is his soul.
The soul has no form, or detached form, but it is a real and concrete existence, not a virtual existence that only exists in imagination.
However, this is different from the souls of other arcanists!
When other arcanists first perceive the soul, although they have no form, they will immediately transform into a form like the noumenon based on their own cognition.
Rather than being like Xia Duo, still indeterminate!
Is he some kind of unfathomable and unspeakable person? Or is this the soul of the people on earth?
However, ~EbookFREE.me~ the indefinite form of the soul did not affect Xia Duo's consciousness, nor did it affect his perception will.
From the consciousness to the soul, and then from the soul to the will, the whole process is a matter of course.
The feeling of perceiving the will is very strange, as if seeing one's eyes without looking through a mirror, or seeing the texture of the skin directly without touching it.
It's as if there is an extra sense out of thin air.
When Xia Duo introduced the state of perception and then re-perceived, this time he didn't need to jump through the soul, but directly perceive the existence of will.
Consciousness and will are not independent of each other, but two different aspects of the soul. If consciousness is the projection of the soul on the body, then the will is also the extension of the soul in a certain direction.
Just like the three primary colors of light on the earth, they have different forms of expression, but they are all light.
Consciousness and will have different manifestations, but the essence should be the soul.
As for the body, it should be the dwelling place of the soul.
...
Perceiving the soul, this incident itself did not directly improve Xia Duo's combat effectiveness, but it greatly expanded his horizons, and at the same time removed the last obstacle to his advanced arcanist.
It's just that the extra senses derived from the will completely disappear after exiting the state of extreme concentration.
There is no direct benefit, which is a little disappointing.
Xia Duo was lying on the bed, thinking about everything that had just happened. It was really like a dream, but it was an extremely real existence.
What follows are just some tips on the use of will.
At this point, the advanced preparations have finally come to an end.
