Chapter 1266: Soul-Attracting Technique
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After Changshui Qin left, the old turtle cursed, “Although you didn’t learn the Soul-Attracting Technique, did you not read the soul of the Fish Dragon King?”
Han Fei smiled bitterly. “I did! But only important things can be read, can’t they?”
The old turtle said, “Your soul-attracting technique is not good. The real soul-attracting technique means that you can read all the information you want as if you’re repeating someone’s memory. I had thought that you didn’t learn soul-attracting because you were confident in your own soul-attracting technique, but… You’re not guarding against me, are you?”
Han Fei pretended not to hear him and asked in surprise, “Really? Can every detail in his life be read?”
Han Fei suddenly took a deep breath. He seemed to have neglected something. Was the Soul-Attracting Technique really so powerful that it could make him see every little detail in the other party’s memory?
Before, the Void Lines could read part of the memories, so Han Fei thought that they were a soul-attracting technique.
After all, these were all methods to read other people’s memories, but definitely not to experience the life of others.
At this moment, Han Fei couldn’t help but ask, “Is the Soul-Attracting Technique really so powerful?”
The old turtle was lost for words. “I’ll teach it to you first. It’s up to you whether you want to learn it or not. But don’t be like now anymore. You can hardly recognize a person and even need my reminder.”
After a while, a new technique appeared in Han Fei’s mind.
Soul-Attracting Art (Venerable-Level, Low-Quality)
This is a forbidden technique. It violates the natural law and forcibly peeps at others’ memories.
Deduced Art: Soul Search Technique
Deduction Cost: 1 billion
Shortcoming 1: If the soul-attractee is stronger than the soul-attractor, the user may suffer a backlash.
Shortcoming 2: The Soul-Attracting Technique can read memories, but the soul-attractor is easy to be impacted by the soul-attractee’s memories, affecting his own memories.
Shortcoming 3: Forcibly attracting one’s soul can cause the soul-attractee to become a fool.
After reading the information about this technique, Han Fei took a slight breath. “Is this against the Heavenly Dao?”
The old turtle said disdainfully, “What do you mean by ‘against the Heavenly Dao’? Cultivation is against the Heavenly Dao in the first place. Why do you care about soul-attracting?”
Han Fei didn’t really care. However, he could deduce the Soul-Attracting Technique! Since the Soul Search Technique was one level higher than the Soul-Attracting Technique, the side effects should be much smaller.
However, Han Fei didn’t choose to deduce it.
For him, 1 billion points of spiritual energy was a huge number now. This month, he didn’t just explore secret realms and do treasure hunting.
Han Fei also needed a lot of spiritual energy. He had fed Little White a hundred million points of spiritual energy.
Besides, he didn’t know what would happen if he went to the Royal City. Therefore, although he still had enough spiritual spring, it wasn’t worthwhile to deduce it now.
One day later.
Han Fei appeared in Forge the Universe again.
Seeing Han Fei, the Fish Dragon King gnashed his teeth and asked, “How long are you going to lock me up?”
Han Fei’s lips curled. “Don’t worry. It won’t be long. Three years at most.”
Hearing that it would be three years, the Fish Dragon King was desperate. He asked, “Then why are you here?”
Han Fei chuckled. “Nothing. Let me borrow your memories.”
The Fish Dragon King: “???”
Before the Fish Dragon King realized what was going on, Han Fei had laid a hand on his head.
The poor Fish Dragon King had basically lost all his strength and was imprisoned here. The space he was in had been independently divided by Han Fei. He didn’t even have the slightest spiritual energy, let alone recover.
Without strength, the Fish Dragon King became meat on the chopping block, at Han Fei’s mercy.
Han Fei intended to practice the Soul-Attracting Technique on the Fish Dragon King because the latter’s realm was not as high as his, his strength was not as strong, and his soul was weaker than his. If even with such an advantage, he still had side effects, it would be a problem if he needed to use the Soul-Attracting Technique in the future. With his personality, he probably wouldn’t choose to use it.
He felt that his consciousness was immersed in a sea of memories. There seemed to be a void, where there were various pictures and vivid contents.
Han Fei knew that he was a spectator. As he scanned with his perception, a large number of memories flashed through his mind. He saw the original body of the Fish Dragon King, which turned out to be a sea snake. However, this sea snake was a bit special. It had four front limbs and two horns on its head.
However, this was not a dragon but a snake creature.
Han Fei simply ignored the pre-awakening memories of the Fish Dragon King. He found that the memory could be skip-read. In an instant, Han Fei skipped to the time when the Fish Dragon King was taken into the Royal City.
They got to know different people, the Heavenly Talents of the same realm, and the Fish Dragon King was bullied. He strengthened himself step by step, and had been through many life-threatening crises…
All kinds of information popped up in his head at the same time. After obtaining the information he wanted to know, Han Fei issued an order in his heart and his consciousness returned.
“Huff!”
Han Fei suddenly opened his eyes and took a long breath.
Before Han Fei could do anything, he saw that the Fish Dragon King was rolling his eyes, foaming at the mouth, and convulsing all over.
Han Fei was lost for words. “What happened to him? He’s a Heavenly Talent anyway. How can he be so weak?”
The old turtle’s voice sounded, “He was disabled for a period of time. He’s in very poor shape, so he reacted like this.”
Han Fei immediately said, “No, this guy can’t die yet. We have to save him.”
With that, Han Fei cast the Holy Light Technique over, and the Fish Dragon King stopped convulsing. His complexion was improving at a visible speed.
Han Fei was now stronger than the Fish Dragon King both in terms of strength and realm. With the Holy Light Technique, even the vitality of the Hydra Grass could return crazily, let alone the Fish Dragon King.
About ten seconds later, the Fish Dragon King came back to his senses. After about twenty seconds, the Fish Dragon King felt that the injuries in his body had recovered by half. When the gentle healing brilliance disappeared, the Fish Dragon King felt that his strength had recovered by at least 20%.
The Fish Dragon King was surprised. “What did you just do to me?”
Han Fei frowned and said, “Before I agree to let you go, you are not allowed to have any strength.”
With that, Han Fei raised his knife and pierced the Dragon King’s Dantian again.
“Ew!”
The Fish Dragon King vomited a mouthful of blood and said with a trembling voice, “Since you don’t allow me to have any strength, why did you cure me?”
Han Fei was silent for a while. “I over-cured you.”
The Fish Dragon King: “…”
…
Coming out of Forge the Universe, Han Fei took a deep breath. “It seems that I missed a lot of information! Old turtle, how long did it take for me to perform the Soul-Attracting Technique?”
The old turtle said, “Three seconds.”
“Huh?”
Han Fei was briefly stunned. “Only three seconds?”
The old turtle said, “Of course, that’s because your mind is observing you. Perhaps you think it has been a long time, but in fact, it’s only three seconds. This is like having a dream. You think you have been dreaming for a long time, but in fact, it’s not long.”
Han Fei thought for a moment and accepted it. In reincarnation, he had experienced decades, but it was actually only dozens of days. However, cultivating in a dream seemed to be worthwhile!
Han Fei couldn’t help but ask, “Is three months too long?”
After reading the memories of the Fish Dragon King, Han Fei learned the situation of the Royal City.
First of all, there had never been more than 100,000 residents in the Royal City.
Among them, 70% of them only had level-six Demonic Heritage.
Therefore, every powerhouse above level seven had at least one or two followers.
And there were standards to survive in the capital.
First of all, the 70% of them were the 70,000 or so powerhouses with level-six demonic heritages. If they didn’t follow someone, it would be fine. But if they followed someone, unless their followers had special arrangements, they had to go out to gain experience every month, during which there was a chance of death. Almost 1% of these people would die every time.
This was not a simple number. They all had level-six spiritual heritages. In any place, they could be called Heavenly Talents. But in the Royal City, they had to work very hard to survive.
This also meant that every month, about 700 sea demons would die. In a year, it would be more than 8,000 sea demons. This number was simply terrifying.
They were all Sea Spirit powerhouses!
Every year, the people eliminated in the Royal City put together would form a very terrifyingly combat power.
However, it was precisely because of this ultra-high elimination rate that every level-six Heavenly Talent who entered the Royal City was trying desperately to strengthen themselves.
Therefore, in the Royal City, there were many Dao Seeking-Realm powerhouses.
The Dao Seeking powerhouses accounted for about 25%.
The remaining half included Venerables, mermen, sea beasts, and other creatures.
Among the 25% sea demons, 15% were ordinary geniuses with level-six demonic heritages, and only 10% had level-seven demonic heritages or above.
But even if it was only ten percent, it was ten thousand people. What a terrifying number! Han Fei clicked his tongue.
Tang Ge’s level-seven spiritual heritage alone was enough for the Heavenly Sword Sect to specially send someone to take him back, and now he was already one of the top powerhouses in his generation in the Thousand Star City.
And among the people he had encountered so far, very few had a spiritual heritage above level 7.
Of course, the growth-type spiritual heritage didn’t count. He was a genius that the Thug Academy had dug out through all means. He couldn’t be judged by common sense.
And this was the composition of people in the Royal City.
Just like ordinary Heavenly Talents, even though the Fish Dragon King and the others were Heavenly Talents, they needed to undergo trial in secret realms regularly. However, unlike ordinary people, these Heavenly Talents with level-7 demonic heritage and above had preferential treatment. In some secret realms, there would be people to rescue them, which greatly reduced the probability of death.
However, reducing the probability of death was different from no death. Some people were unlucky and strong masters failed to treat them in time, so they could only blame their bad luck.
As for the trial secret realms in the Royal City, they were divided into five levels: simple, ordinary, difficult, hell, and forbidden area.
Ordinary Heavenly Talents could choose a simple-level secret realm every month.
For Heavenly Talents like the Fish Dragon King, they were usually assigned with difficult-level secret realms. No one would start from the ordinary level. With the Fish Dragon King’s pride, he certainly wouldn’t choose that.
However, if a Heavenly Talent with a level-7 demonic heritage or above didn’t go to trial for a month, the difficulty of the next trial would automatically rise by one level.
Therefore, Han Fei was already a month behind schedule. Now, he told Changshui Qin that he would return in three months. Didn’t it mean that his trial difficulty had jumped to the level of a forbidden area?
Han Fei had just read about forbidden areas in his mind. The Heavenly Talents with the demonic heritages lower than level nine only had a ten percent chance of survival.
Why was it below level nine? It was because a demonic heritage above level nine was hard to come by in a thousand years. If there was one, he would be a treasure.
And who would throw such a treasure into a forbidden area?
The old turtle said leisurely, “I had thought you knew.”
Han Fei: “….”
