Spiritual clone

Spiritual clone (灵魂分身). Many cultivators made spiritual clones to protect against the worst-case scenario. At a critical time, they could sacrifice the clone to protect the main body.
== Ling Yunzi ==
Ling Yunzi's spiritual body was more accurately a spiritual clone. It was something that could be condensed after entering the Xiantian realm—when a person's Spiritual Strength reached a certain pinnacle.
Such a spiritual clone contained ten percent of the true body's combat strength. It was an essential tool for experts to help support their junior generation.
However, it wasn't every Xiantian expert who could condense a spiritual clone. Not only did it require powerful Spiritual Strength, but it also required an extremely rare talent.
== Yin Wushang ==
For ordinary experts, after they reached the Xiantian realm, they could condense a clone. For example, back in the Righteous and Corrupt battle of the 108th monastery, Ling Yunzi's clone had appeared.
In reality, those kinds of clones were just spiritual clones. Using a secret art, he had condensed his Spiritual Strength into a clone.
That clone would then be nourished for many years to make it stronger. However, it was not truly solid. It only possessed a tenth of the strength of the main body.
Furthermore, if those kinds of clones encountered any powerful impacts that surpassed their limits, they would automatically explode.
Such clones were only used as supplementary aid. Their actual use was very limited. So most people didn't use them for anything.
This spiritual clone was also known as a false clone. But Yin Wushang's clone was known as a true clone. It was a solid body.
The greatest advantage of those clones was that they were still connected to their master, but it was a physical body that was separate from the true body. Condensing such a true clone not only required an ocean's worth of resources, but it also required the true body to receive an extreme amount of pain.
The pain of the soul and physical body being torn apart required an incomparably firm willpower. Otherwise, it was possible for someone to directly go crazy from the pain. Liu Zongying had also tried condensing such a clone, but she hadn't been able to endure it in the end and had given up on it.
Such clones possessed around sixty percent of the true body's strength. For Yin Wushang's clone to already possess such terrifying strength, it could be imagined just how powerful his true body was.
However, experiencing that endless pain and exhausting all those resources wasn't for playing around.
Because the clone and true body were connected spiritually, the true body could stay secluded and cultivate while the clone went around fighting and experiencing dangerous situations.
What the clone experienced, the true body could also experience. So this way, the true body could stay in while still undergoing all kinds of tempering.
Furthermore, Yin Wushang was a Celestial, and his clone had even possessed the ability to use the Cry of the Heavenly Daos. That was because Yin Wushang had poured in a portion of his core energy into the clone.
That core energy could also grow and mature inside the clone through cultivation. Yin Wushang's goal had been to wait until he reached the peak of Meridian Opening and then merged with his clone. Reaching the pinnacle of perfection, when he attacked the Xiantian realm, he hoped to advance from a rank one Celestial to a rank two Celestial.
But Long Chen had destroyed his clone's soul. Even those core runes had been destroyed, completely destroying his hopes.
== Devil Spirit Mountain ==
There was a wall of corpses used to make spiritual clones in a mountain pit, including the Red-haired expert.
== Xiang Yunfei ==
Xiang Yunfei's clone has ten percent of his true body's bloodline power. Its actual power is less than eighty percent.
Although a clone would theoretically possess eighty percent of the power of the true body, due to his lack of bloodline power and Heavenly Bone Spears, his clone was far weaker than his true body."
"That's true. Most experts only use their clones to increase their combat comprehension and cultivation insights. It's just that Xiang Yunfei underestimated Long Chen. The destruction of his clone should cause a great deal of harm to him. He'll be missing part of his soul and blood. However, with the Barbarian Mammoth race's ancestral spirit protection, he should be able to recover."
Heavenly geniuses were most afraid of having their Dao-hearts shrouded. Xiang Yunfei had now lost his clone to Long Chen, and that was sure to leave a shadow on his heart. If he didn't defeat Long Chen with his true body, it would very likely become a heart-devil.
That was why whether it was because of Long Chen's enmity with the ancient races or because he had killed his clone, Xiang Yunfei would definitely have a bloody battle against Long Chen. This was already set in stone.
