Chapter 284 Hypnotic Puppet
"Archer, your soul skill is really amazing. You should know that this is an extremely special concept soul skill."
The potential of this soul skill is limitless. You'll have to practice it a lot whenever you have time. If you master it, the attack range of this soul skill will definitely increase significantly.
Wu Heyi frowned, his eyes slightly narrowed, and after a long period of thought, he finally spoke slowly.
After saying that, he squatted down and solemnly picked up the soul bone that was emitting a faint light, as if he were picking up a rare treasure.
Then, he gently took Archer's hand, placed the soul bone steadily in his palm, and encouraged him with his eyes, signaling Archer to begin absorbing this precious soul bone.
"Archer, you must be careful. This soul bone contains the resentment of the soul beast you killed before."
Don't underestimate this resentment; its power might be two or three times stronger than the soul beast itself.
"You must be extremely vigilant during the process of absorbing the soul bone; you absolutely cannot let your guard down."
Wu Heyi deliberately raised his voice, his expression very serious. He knew how terrible this resentment was, and a hint of worry was in his eyes.
Archer held the soul bone in his hand, staring blankly at the soul bone that emitted mysterious soul power fluctuations, clearly at a loss.
Just then, Meng Xuanjun walked over with unhurried steps. His steps were light, and each step seemed to carry a unique rhythm.
He walked up to Archer and snapped his fingers at him without hesitation.
With that snap of his fingers, Archer's eyes seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, slowly and slightly closing, like two soft feathers gently closing together.
"Old Meng, what are you doing?" Wu Heyi asked loudly, his face full of doubt.
He searched every corner of his memory but couldn't recall Mengxuan Jun ever possessing such a hypnotic soul skill.
This question, like a fog, kept swirling in Wu Heyi's mind.
However, Mengxuanjun did not answer, but just stood there quietly.
Then, as if his fingers had a mind of their own, they slowly shot out fine threads.
The threads were as fine as hair, shimmering faintly in the light. They seemed to contain a vast amount of soul power and incredibly strong spiritual energy, like a quietly flowing river of immense power.
Looking at Archer, he was like a puppet being manipulated by strings.
His body began to tremble slightly involuntarily, and then he began to release the surging soul power within him.
The soul power surged from his body, like a bright ray of light, and as if drawn by a thread, it slowly and gently wrapped around the soul bone in his hand, circle by circle.
The strands of soul power, like nimble little snakes, seeped into the mysterious soul bone little by little, carefully.
When the soul power was almost fully injected, the soul bone seemed to suddenly come to life, and began to detach from Archer's hand, floating freely and lightly in the air.
Like an ethereal bird, it gracefully twirled a few times in the air before landing steadily on Archer's spine.
The two wing-like soul bones slowly gathered soul power at their center, and then miraculously grew into bones that could perfectly connect with the human spine.
Immediately afterwards, the newly formed bone, like a sharp sword, plunged into Archer's spine with unstoppable momentum.
In that instant, a torrent of pain erupted unexpectedly within Archer's body.
The pain felt like a thousand needles piercing his body at once. Archer couldn't control his instincts and let out a painful, desperate roar from his throat.
The roar was like a muffled thunderclap, exploding in the air, and Archer almost broke free from Dream Whirlwind's hypnotic state.
But perhaps because the pain was too intense, Archer's consciousness was like a kite with a broken string, instantly engulfed by darkness, and he fainted from the pain.
Seeing this, Meng Xuanjun raised his hand and patted his chest with lingering fear, saying in a slightly trembling voice, "Thank goodness, he didn't wake up. I was almost injured by this backlash."
A fine layer of sweat appeared on his forehead, glistening in the sunlight, just like his tense mood at that moment.
"Old Meng, so you can actually talk!"
Wu Heyi was now even more curious about what Meng Xuanjun had just done. His eyes widened as he urged her eagerly.
"Tell me quickly, what exactly happened?"
Looking at Wu Heyi's incredibly curious expression, Meng Xuanjun couldn't help but roll her eyes and said irritably:
"These days, getting you to do me a favor is harder than climbing to heaven."
We're all brothers from the same clan. If you're unwilling to lend a hand, then there's nothing I can do; I'll have to do it myself.
As Meng Xuanjun spoke, she raised her chin, revealing her arrogant demeanor. Wu He looked at her like this and felt speechless. However, he knew that Meng Xuanjun was probably right. He was simply too lazy to take action.
Wu Heyi had his own logic: if he had to rely on others to help him absorb each soul ring, he would eventually develop a dependency that was hard to shake off.
Such dependence is undoubtedly extremely disadvantageous for someone who wants to continuously improve their abilities.
This is like a baby bird that always waits in the nest to be fed. Once it leaves the help of others, its actual combat ability will be greatly reduced, and it will be helpless when facing a truly powerful enemy.
"Have you forgotten what my martial spirit is?" Meng Xuanjun asked with a mocking smile, her eyes looking at Wu Heyi defiantly.
Wu Heyi certainly understood the hidden meaning behind Meng Xuanjun's words.
In an instant, fragments of memories about Meng Xuanjun's martial soul began to flash through his mind. Although they were somewhat blurry, he roughly knew that Meng Xuanjun's martial soul seemed to have some unique abilities.
"My clan has a soul skill that we are born with, or you could say it's a special ability we're born with. This ability is called Hypnotic Puppet!"
As Mengxuan spoke, the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and she looked incredibly proud, as if she were showing off a unique treasure, her face full of smugness.
"However, certain conditions must be met to activate this soul skill."
First of all, the hypnotized person's cultivation level must be lower than mine;
Secondly, the person being hypnotized must unconditionally trust me; only then can this soul skill be successfully activated.
When Wu Heyi heard Meng Xuanjun say that this was an innate soul skill, his eyes widened instantly like copper bells, and his face was full of surprise.
He had never heard of this concept before. To be precise, in all his years of experience, he had never seen a case where a soul beast transformed into a human and retained the soul skills it had when it was a soul beast.
This was something completely new to him, something he had never heard of before, and it was beyond his previous understanding.
"After I activate this soul skill, the person I turn into a hypnotic puppet will be completely under my control, except for not being able to use their own martial soul. This includes their physical movements, the use of soul power, and mental activities."
That's why I thought of trying to see if I could enter his dream after putting him into a hypnotic puppet state.
In other words, is it possible to enter his spiritual sea of consciousness?
Mengxuan began to explain in a serious and detailed manner, just like a rigorous teacher imparting knowledge.
Upon hearing this, Wu Heyi felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and instantly understood what Meng Xuanjun wanted to do.
He nodded slightly, rested his chin on two fingers of both hands, gazed into the distance, and after a long moment of contemplation, said:
"You're planning to enter his spiritual sea to help him deal with the resentment of that soul beast, right?"
After Wu Heyi understood all of this, his eyes shone with anticipation and excitement.
"I think this idea is feasible."
If this attempt succeeds, you might be able to pioneer a completely new method for absorbing soul bones!
