Past life sage: This life a dual cultivator-Chapter 47 - Forming A Pseudo Soul

"The Celestial Yin Yang sutra is really a heaven defying cultivation technique. I have never seen a cultivation technique which has a healing property on the soul", Zhan Chen murmured after opening his eyes.

Although he had separated a small part of his soul, it was still a soul injury. Zhan Chen was thinking about injesting the soul nourishing liquid to heal his soul but his soul was surprisingly showing the sign of recovery after he cultivated the Celestial Yin Yang sutra for a while.

"Now it is time to form the pseudo soul according to the techniques described in the Dark soul codex", Zhan Chen thought inside his mind. He took out the jade bottles where he was storing both types of the soul nourishing liquid.

He opened them and started to pour them one by one in his mouth. After finishing the last bottle, he closed his eyes.

A vast amount of soul energy came out from the Soul nourishing liquid. Zhan Chen's injured soul started to heal in a visible speed. His soul completely healed after a while. There were still a vast soul energy contained inside the soul nourishing liquid. Zhan Chen pushed them towards the small part of his soul he had separated earlier in the morning.

That soul part grew larger after taking in the soul energy contained inside the soul nourishing liquid. It glowed brightly after it started to taking in the soul. The absorption continued for an hour. After it showed signs of stopping.

Zhan Chen observed the small soul part which was glowing brightly after absorbing the energy contained inside the soul nourishment liquid. It's size was bigger than before. Moreover, the soul energy contained inside it could match the soul of a peak stage Core Condensation realm expert.

"Now it is time to draw the divine symbols on it", Zhan Chen thought inside his mind. With a will of his mind, tiny lines appeared on his divided soul. His soul essence started to rapidly consumed by drawing these tiny line. Within few minutes, Zhan Chen had drawn above twenty tiny divine characters.

Drops of started to poured down from Zhan Chen's head. The consumption of his soul strength was much higher than his expectation. Zhan Chen greeted his teeth and carried on.

He started to feel pain all over his body after twenty minutes. His mind grew dizzy and a complete sense of exhaustion came to his mind.

"I can't fail. Otherwise I will lose my soul strength without much meaning in spending it", Zhan Chen thought inside his mind. His mind was exhausted but he still carried on relying on his will power.

"Finally complete", a faint smile appeared on Zhan Chen's pale face after some time. It was only half an hour but it felt like an age to him. A empty feeling washed over him and his mind felt heavy. Zhan Chen's eyelids grew heavier and he couldn't resist closing his eyes.

It was already evening when Zhan Chen woke up. He was still inside the closed room. The first thing he did after waking up was to check his pseudo soul. That was the thing which was most important to him for challenging the Gu family.

A glowing illusory mass was floating next to his soul. Zhan Chen could feel a special feeling inside his mind when his soul conciousness touched the glowing mass. There were tiny golden characters on the glowing mass. "Fortunately, I am an alchemist. Otherwise, I couldn't have control my soul conciousness so precisely even if I reached the peak again", Zhan Chen thought inside his mind. ƒ𝘳ee𝔀e𝚋n૦𝐯el.c𝗼𝓂

He recalled the words written in the Dark soul codex and a feeling of anticipation came to his mind. 'The shadow soul is a very useful tool for those who used their souls to fight. Moreover, its use is not limited to fight only as it can be used for alchemy and inscription. It can be used as a soul energy reservoir and its soul strength can be used without lessening the capability of the main soul.'

"Gu family, just you wait. The last thing you could have done is going against my family. Neither you nor that Ming family will escape from my palm", Zhan Chen murmured.

He walked out from the secluded room and walked towards the main hall. He saw Shen Ruyan sitting with manager Yao of the Firecloud treasure pavilion. He looked around and saw Ling'er and Su'er standing in a corner. Both of them blushed after seeing Zhan Chen looking at them. A smile appeared in Zhan Chen's face after seeing them blush. He nodded at them and walked towards Shen Ruyan.

"Young master Chen", the middle-aged manager Yao greeted Zhan Chen after noticing his arrival.

"Manager Yao", Zhan Chen greeted back. Then he turned towards Shen Ruyan and smiled.

"How is it Ruyan? Is there any news?", Zhan Chen asked.

"There are. I will talk to you after sorting out some things with sister Yao. Moreover, there are also other things", Shen Ruyan threw a glance at Ling'er and Su'er a d then turned to take a look at Zhan Chen.

"Then, I will wait", Zhan Chen spoke and sat on a nearby chair.

Shen Ruyan and manager Yao spoke for another ten minutes. Then, manager Yao bowed towards Shen Ruyan and left the main hall.

"Ling'er, Su'er, both of you also go and wait outside", Shen Ruyan commander. Ling'er and Su'er nodded their head and bowed their heads before leaving.

"Ruyan, will you mind if I find other girls?", Zhan Chen asked. His gaze was fully focused on the beautiful face of Shen Ruyan.

"Are you talking about Su'er and Ling'er?", Shen Ruyan asked with a smile.

"Did they tell you?", Zhan Chen felt little bit surprised and looked at the smiling face of Shen Ruyan.

"No, I haven't asked them anything but I can guess this much", Shen Ruyan replied with a smile.

"Then do you mind?", Zhan Chen looked carefully at Shen Ruyan's expression.

"It is not that I felt nothing at all but which capable person do not have a lot of women around him. So, asking you to stick to me only be selfishness in my part", Shen Ruyan replied with a soft smile. Her smile was like a breeze which warmed Zhan Chen's heart.

"Ruyan, what I am cultivating is a little bit special. It is a dual cultivation technique which relies on cultivation with girls. If not for that I....

"Shh!", before Zhan Chen could say anything Shen Ruyan kept a finger on his mouth.

A gentleness appeared on her eyes as she looked at Zhan Chen. "No need to explain anything. I know you truly love me and that is enough. As for the other girls I don't care how much you find but please never forget me", she spoke softly.

I have to cultivate with many but I will choose carefully while picking my women among them. Moreover, noone can snatch your position as my first wife. Moreover, I promise I will never forget about you. I will always remember this smiling face of yours", Zhan Chen promised solemnly. A gentleness appeared on his eyes as he stood up and lifted up Shen Ruyan's chin to have a kiss.
