Sun Miaoxing began to explain.
Looking at the towering mountains in the distance, breathing in the fragrant scent from the entire field of medicinal herbs, he said, "Each of us possesses a Divine Soul, which becomes increasingly stronger with cultivation and age."
"However, the strength of the Divine Soul is limited by the physique. The physique is a foundation, within which the Divine Soul can fluctuate. More or less doesn’t matter."
At this point, Sun Miaoxing pulled a blade of grass from the ground.
Returning to Yuchi, he held the blade of grass in his hand, half of it gripped within his fist, the other half standing upright outside.
"See, this is the reason for the dispersal of the Divine Soul."
"The blade of grass represents the Divine Soul, the fist symbolizes the physique. You see, my fist cannot hold the blade of grass entirely, so a significant portion of it spills out from the physique, doesn’t it?"
Yuchi nodded. Indeed, the blade of grass was longer than the width of the palm, so the palm could only accommodate the width of the blade of grass; the rest extends beyond the fist.
"If the blade of grass is much longer than the width of the palm, in Medicine Master Valley, we call it ’dissipation.’"
"In Divine Skill Temple, the same situation is called ’chaos of intent.’"
"Two different names, but the effect is the same."
"In other words:"
"A spiritual realm that far surpasses the body’s capability results in dissipation and chaos."
Yuchi had an expression like ’I’m following along; keep going.’
Sun Miaoxing suddenly produced a pile of medicinal powder in his hand, and he directly sprinkled it onto the hand gripping the blade of grass. As the black powder gradually disappeared, his whole fist and the exposed part of the blade had been stained black.
Now, with his palm open, the blade of grass protected by the fist remained grass-green, while the unprotected part turned pitch-black.
"This scenario is now quite easy to understand, right?"
"Without the protection of the fist, the blade of grass cannot resist dirt. Similarly, the part of the Divine Soul unprotected by the physique is easily influenced by negative emotions around it, leading to the Divine Soul having two contrasting personalities."
"This is the fragmentation of the Divine Soul, splitting into two personalities."
Yuchi roughly understood and blurted out a term, "Split personality?"
Sun Miaoxing looked at Yuchi unexpectedly.
Wow.
Isn’t Yuchi unexpectedly quite the expert here? Even knowing the professional terms from Medicine Master Valley? He nodded and said, "Yes, that’s a typical reason for split personality."
"In this simple example, the green occupies half, and black fills the other half. In reality, every individual with a fragmented Divine Soul is different; there might be more green or more black."
"Everyone’s situation is unique, and which personality dominates can be judged by a very simple phenomenon."
Yuchi nodded slowly. He didn’t speak but listened intently, wanting to know how to determine which personality was dominant.
Sun Miaoxing then asked with a frown, "Does she sleepwalk?"
Sleepwalk?... After hearing this question, Yuchi’s heart skipped, and he immediately nodded, "Indeed, there is such sleepwalking behavior."
Sun Miaoxing’s brow furrowed further, followed by a sigh.
Yuchi: "..."
Oh my, it’s doomed. Seeing a pharmacist sigh like that either in past or present lives means this situation might be serious!
"Alright."
"To make it easier to understand, let’s refer to the Divine Soul outside the physique as Black Soul, and the Divine Soul inside the physique as White Soul."
"Normally, people have virtually no Black Soul, or just a tiny bit, which doesn’t affect anything. Generally, the White Soul undoubtedly occupies ninety percent of the Divine Soul, wielding dominant control over the entire soul."
White Soul, Black Soul... Fire Transmission? Yuchi’s mind was a mess at the mention of Fire Transmission, discarding such thoughts, he focused intently on Sun Miaoxing’s words.
Sun Miaoxing continued:
"Your disciple’s situation is quite concerning; normally, the White Soul occupies ninety percent, but your disciple’s Black Soul occupies at least ninety percent. This means her Divine Soul inside the physique accounts for only ten percent, while outside occupies ninety percent, her Divine Soul is overwhelmingly stronger than her physique!"
"Thus, your disciple’s physique cannot completely hold the entire soul."
"The consequence is easy hair loss."
Yuchi: "???"
Hair loss? What’s this nonsense? He rubbed his ears to make sure he didn’t mishear, why did hair loss suddenly become relevant in such serious talk?
"Yes, it’s analogous to hair loss."
"The longer the hair, the harder the scalp can hold it down, since the hair root is too short, with just a light pull, the whole hair easily falls out of the follicles."
"Hair loss is a painful issue for all men." freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Sun Miaoxing said, wiping tears, looking at a bunch of hair in his palm, and seeing Yuchi’s bewilderment, continued, "Applied to the Divine Soul, it means the soul is too strong, easily leaving the physique, entering a state of wandering soul."
