"'The soul and body have a very major connection between them, but at the same time they don't."
"Hmm... how do I explain it to you? Haah!"
"Alright, I think I have gotten it somewhat. So, you know that a person dies when cut, but the soul is not like that."
"There's a saying among cultivators: 'Weapons do not cleave the soul; fire does not burn it'. What it means is you can't destroy the soul, but that is only partially true."
"Well, for the most part, it is, and you can say that the body is like garments, clothing, accessories, and the like. As a person casts off worn-out clothes and puts on new ones, so does the soul cast off its worn-out body and enter new ones."
"If you exclude reincarnators, cursed souls, and the exceptions, it stands true to the utmost."
"In even simpler terms, if you compare oneself to a fruit, then the body is merely the outer layer or the peel that protects the fragile soul from getting exposed to threats."
