109: Incomplete Soul

Incomplete Soul

Bai Rouyun looked at the dummy, took a deep breath, and began practicing the Windhowl Slash. 1

The Windhowl Slash, when compared to many of the other attacks within Bai Rouyun's mind, was a very simple attack style. It looked like an ordinary slash, but it was much quicker, and the speed caused the wind to howl.

One would not be able to see the difference between an ordinary slash and this technique, and in a way, this was a great benefit to Bai Rouyun at her current strength.

She could mask a regular slash as an attack and easily defeat the opponents. This was why she had chosen the Windhowl Slash.

She knew that the school advocated competition amongst the students, and considering her relationship with the students from Richu Empire, they would naturally come and challenge her.

She was in the lowest class of them all; it was only natural to assume that she would be an easy target. Although she had managed to win the first place in the Hunting Feast, that did not make them admire her or admit to her strength. They were confident that her victory was won with sheer luck.

Bai Rouyun knew what they thought, but she had said nothing to make them change their minds. She was quite pleased with the prospects of them challenging her, as she was looking for someone to try her hand at. It was too long since she had last had a good fight.

The majority of the students within the institute were currently busy having lectures, and only the ones from the lowest class moved as they pleased.

This also made it so that Bai Rouyun was alone in the training field. She did not feel a need to hold anything back, she attacked with all her might, but after a mere two Windhowl Slashes, the dummy had broken down.

She could not help but frown. These dummies were supposed to be able to withstand a hit of an Innate Realm cultivator, and she was clearly far from this realm, so why had her attack caused such damage?

"Dummy, it is because of your mental strength." The voice of Xiao Bao suddenly sounded in her head, and Bai Rouyun, who was puzzled, instantly listened to the spirit's explanation.

"I am not sure what was wrong with you before, but when you lived in your previous life, your soul was incomplete. The incomplete soul was also a part of the reason for your foundations never to become stable; when a part of the soul is missing, it is hard to increase one's cultivation base.

"The moment you entered this body, your soul became whole. I have a theory that the original host of this body was, in fact, the missing part of your soul. That would explain why it was relatively low on the intelligence level and had some troubles.

"While they say a fever caused it, it is likely that the fever had the chance to cause such damage, because the soul was incomplete to begin with."

Bai Rouyun was staring at the dummy, deep in thought. Had her soul been incomplete? That was something she was unaware of, but it made perfect sense.

She was slightly confused when she thought about the original host being part of her soul. Was this luck, or was this the reason that she had spent ten years before she reincarnated?

The incomplete soul had been floating around, waiting to be reconnected with the missing part of the soul?

The more she thought about it, the more sense it made. She had felt extremely comfortable after entering the body, and her cultivation speed had increased several times over.

Even her strength was inhuman when she looked at how the Windhowl Slash had destroyed the dummy.

But it was a hard piece of information to digest. Why had her soul become incomplete in the first place?

Xiao Bao could hear her thoughts, and quickly answered, "It is not rare for souls to become incomplete. It can happen for various reasons, but most people have lost part of their souls. It is just rare that they can reconnect with them, so you are quite lucky."

Bai Rouyun nodded her head. "I guess that you are right. I am just surprised that I have never heard about incomplete souls before. At the peak of the continent in my previous life, I thought that I would have known things like that, but I guess that no one told me about it due to my identity."

Xiao Bao's face looked a little solemn as he looked into the far distance and muttered, "it is not that you did not know, no one on this continent knows. It is simply too weak a continent, and with the position this continent has amongst the other continents, then it is hard to know such information."

Bai Rouyun's eyes flashed, and she had lost all interest in training her Windhowl Slash.

"Do you know about the continents outside this one?" she asked excitedly. She had always felt a great interest in the outside world to have a new beginning somewhere else, but she never managed to escape in her previous life because of her bad luck.

"I know," Xiao Bao answered honestly. "But at the current point in time, I can not tell you about it. When you grow stronger, I will take you to the outside world."

Bai Rouyun had hoped to hear a bit about the outside world, but she understood that she could not pressure the spirit, and thus she just smiled wryly and returned to train her Windhowl Slash.
