Soul Tools were external objects, after all. Even though most top-tier Level 9 Soul Tools could merge into a Soul Master's body like Soul Bones, Jiang Hai's research into Lifebound Soul Tools treated the human body itself as a Soul Tool, aiming to turn external objects into an inseparable part of oneself.
