Chapter 2419 The Astral Dimension

Xukong's words were like a bomb to Lin Mu.

"WHAT!?" He couldn't believe it since it simply seemed impossible to him. "How's that possible!?" "I was just as shocked." Xukong replied, letting out a sigh. "But you somehow… managed to do it." Lin Mu went silent for a couple minutes, as he ruminated over it and finally spoke.

"But wouldn't that mean… I was dead?" he asked, great hesitance in his voice.

"Usually yes." Xukong nodded. "True Souls of creatures aren't meant to leave their bodies as they are very fragile and would perish without the protection of their 'vessel'. That is also why cultivators yearn to develop a Nascent Soul which allows them to have a second chance at life.

That way even if one's body is damaged beyond recovery, they can transfer their True Soul to a Nascent Soul as a new vessel and survive." He explained.

"Then, did my True Soul leave with my Nascent Soul?" Lin Mu questioned as that seemed like the most likely option to him.

"No… You're Nascent Soul was still in your Dantian." Xukong answered. "I don't know how… But you reached a state where your True Soul detached, but managed to leave behind a link to your body. This allowed your True Soul to return to your body after a period." He explained.

"So the dreams I saw… weren't dreams?" He muttered to himself.
