Chapter 562: Possession Class! The Feedback of the Annihilation Eye!
Chapter 562: Possession Class! The Feedback of the Annihilation Eye!
How can a single arm create history?
How can this arm bring about a special advancement that will be remembered in the annals of Beastmasters?
This question lingered in the minds of Meng Yao and Zhu Hong, sparking their curiosity.
After retrieving the Sea King Naga's arm, Su Ping closed his eyes and fell into deep thought, not making any further movements.
What he was about to do was something only he could accomplish.
Even those around him could only assist in minor tasks.
In fact, this first step might be the most challenging for Su Ping.
Previously, the God of Spring had taught him the ability of Life Carving's Life Embryo.
And now, Su Ping was about to try to surpass the master's teachings!
Indeed, at this moment, what he was about to do was to carve the ability of Life Carving's Life Embryo onto this arm.
He aimed to create a self-sustaining life force and energy circulation channel within the arm.
Then, he would establish the basic functions of a corresponding life form.
Turning an arm into a living being was an outlandish idea, and even if others could conceive of such a miraculous concept, they would likely be unable to achieve it.
This was the ability bestowed upon him by the God of Spring.
However, the reason the Life Embryo succeeded was that it was originally a seed of a plant life form. But how could an arm accomplish all of this?
Undoubtedly, to achieve all of this,
relying solely on the gift from the God of Spring and the experience of Life Embryo carving would not be of much use.
Even before this, he couldn't solve the problem of this first step.
Unless the God of Spring woke up again, or even if he did, Su Ping had reason to doubt that the God of Spring could help him achieve this in a short time.
However, just before this, the advancement of the Origami Figure Bestiary inspired him.
Even a piece of paper could bear the birth of a soul and create an entirely new companion beast. So, what couldn't a former companion beast's flesh and blood corpse achieve?
Most importantly, the Life Carving's Life Embryo required a Wood-type companion beast to connect and give birth to a true life, fostering a soul consciousness.
Su Ping could completely guide soul power through the method of creating the Origami Figure, creating a new life within this specially crafted body.
This was also why Su Ping had the confidence to do so.
It was the method he had thought of initially.
As that familiar feeling emerged, Su Ping's grasp of the Soul Rule allowed him to slowly extend his hand, imbuing a special power into the arm.
He didn't rush to modify the arm.
This arm, even after half a day, showed no signs of decay. Not only was it not rotting, but it remained incredibly fresh, primarily because the original owner of this arm was a Saint-rank Naga King,
and as a companion beast renowned for its physical strength, its flesh had a certain degree of uniqueness.
Souls, especially extremely weak self-awareness and spiritual souls, could not normally inhabit an arm. Therefore, modifying the arm required a general understanding.
As the strands of soul power slowly swept through the arm, Su Ping sensed with utmost precision.
Even as a remnant, this arm, though not human but a humanoid companion beast's arm, possessed many unique aspects.
Most importantly, although this arm was a flesh and blood body, every drop of blood and every cell contained a large amount of water element.
This water element preserved the arm's activity while retaining a portion of its power.
This was why Su Ping chose this item as his first experiment.
With the perception of soul power and the complete penetration of mental power, Su Ping soon understood the Naga King's arm thoroughly.
One could even say that at this moment, Su Ping's understanding of this arm surpassed his understanding of his own.
After all, he would never have thought of storing his soul in his arm instead of his brain.
It was an abstract and inconceivable idea.
However, this was precisely what Su Ping wanted.
He fell into deep thought and then took out an item.
It was a Soul Crystal.
Soul Crystals were relatively special among all Necromantic resources.
The reason is simple; this thing's level is uncertain.
It is a remnant left behind by a Necromantic Beast Companion after its death.
It exists from Elite Rank to Holy Rank, and even beyond.
However, it is divided into different concentrations and sizes.
The one Su Ping brought out was merely a Monarch Rank Soul Crystal.
A Soul Crystal is a remnant formed by the condensation of illusory soul power into a solid state.
But since it is a condensation of the soul, it can naturally dissipate, just like the effect of water turning into ice.
Water freezes into ice, and the ice can naturally melt back into water.
At this moment, under Su Ping's urging, the Soul Crystal containing soul power slowly melts and genuinely merges into this remnant body.
The next moment, in everyone's eyes, Su Ping's eyes closed, but his palm grasped the Sea King Naga's arm and started kneading it.
A rhythm that couldn't be described made Meng Yao and Zhu Hong stare at each other in bewilderment.
What on earth was this kid doing? How did he master this seemingly bizarre yet inexplicably believable method that made people trust there was a reason behind it? It was incomprehensible, utterly incomprehensible.
Fortunately, Su Ping's actions didn't last too long.
Half an hour later, Su Ping slowly released his palm, and everyone looked at the arm again, only to be slightly startled.
There wasn't any noticeable change in the arm; only the back of the palm had a strange bump, and it wasn't particularly prominent.
However, for some reason, this arm gave the three people present an indescribable feeling at that moment.
Before that, this arm was just a remnant body, even though it contained an enormous amount of water elemental ability. Still, it remained a corpse.
The feeling of death was unmistakable.
But now, this arm, which should have been a corpse, strangely gave off a vibrant, lively impression.
This feeling, if spoken of, would likely be met with disbelief.
How could an arm give off such an illusion?
Yet, that was the case.
So, after Su Ping opened his eyes, Meng Yao and Zhu Hong, who had already grown impatient, asked:
"Su Ping, what's the meaning of this? What are you trying to cultivate?"
Su Ping didn't rush to answer; instead, he observed the arm for a while and then turned to Meng Yao:
"Ray Sage, I need your help!"
"Just say it."
"Use your soul perception to trace along this arm and infuse your soul essence into the soul core on the back of the arm."
"Hmm?"
Meng Yao was slightly taken aback but still complied.
It was just a waste of soul power; he could easily replenish it by meditating or consuming resources of that type, so it wasn't a big deal.
Holding the arm, Meng Yao closed his eyes, and a strand of consciousness slowly entered the arm, intertwining with his soul power.
Five minutes later, Meng Yao opened his eyes in surprise:
"Su Ping, the inside of this arm..."
Facing Su Ping's smile, Meng Yao still looked like he hadn't recovered from the shock.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liushujiu.
Zhu Hong, on the side, was anxious: "Meng Yao, what's going on here?"
Meng Yao then explained:
"The inside of this arm is like a living being. Its energy is sufficient to form a complete self-sustaining cycle. Although it doesn't have any organs or features like some companions,
As just an arm, it perfectly matches the soul body's condensation of an elemental or necromantic being. You could say that if this thing didn't have intelligence and self-awareness,
And the soul has just condensed, and it doesn't seem to have any growth potential? Otherwise, this would be an entirely new life!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Hong blinked, then looked at Su Ping in disbelief. He seemed to suddenly understand what Su Ping was planning, but he couldn't bring himself to trust it.
After all, it was too unbelievable.
Even he, as a master of elemental cultivation in the Dragon Nation and renowned across the Blue Star, had never imagined that such a day would come, a day when something so inconceivable would happen.
But if not for this idea, he couldn't fathom what Su Ping was up to.
So, after thinking it over, he tentatively asked:
"Su Ping, do you want to try cultivating an entirely new type of companion?"
Su Ping nodded, no longer concealing his ambition.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Hong, who was initially elated, furrowed his brows slightly and lowered his head in deep thought.
Meng Yao, who had been perplexed, suddenly widened his eyes in disbelief, "What? A new type of companion beast? In this day and age, what new type of companion beast could possibly emerge?"
This question was also on Zhu Hong's mind:
"Su Ping, what form do you envision for this new type of companion beast? You must understand that a completely new type of companion beast is not just a change in appearance."
Indeed, the arm of this Sea King Naga was peculiar, but typically, in the understanding of beastmasters worldwide, the most crucial aspect of a new type is its combat style and an entirely novel cultivation direction never seen before! For instance, mechanical-type companion beasts are like this. Their cultivation and combat style represent an entirely new path, and only then can it be considered..."
Evidently, Zhu Hong's thoughts were complex, and this complexity did not include any negative emotions like jealousy.
The complexity stemmed from his eagerness for Su Ping to achieve such results, but he was also apprehensive that Su Ping might not fully grasp the implications of creating a new type, leading to a false celebration.
Facing Zhu Hong's earnest gaze, Su Ping became more cautious. After a moment's thought, he said, "I'm not sure if it will succeed, but it's worth a try. We'll have to wait a few more days to see."
"A few more days?"
"Yes! Regardless, we must take the first step! First, we need to let the life form take shape!"
Su Ping nodded in agreement.
Three days later, this was his estimated time.
Not only had he fully grasped the Origami Figure Bestiary and gained significant control over soul rules, but even if he were to ascend to the Mythical Realm, it would be unreasonable to create a completely living being within half an hour using just a single soul crystal.
Therefore, three days were required to allow the Sea King Naga's arm to undergo the process of becoming a living entity, thus generating a foundational soul consciousness and self-awareness.
With this in mind, Su Ping quickly glanced at the water-type cultivation laboratory, where Zhu Hong had left behind a considerable amount of resources.
Su Ping picked up a large basin and collected a substantial amount of Agarwood Water and Water of Life from Monarch-rank resources. Then, as he usually did, he soaked numerous powders of Soul Crystal in it before taking out a stack of Soul-Suppressing Paper to cover it.
This sealed the Sea King Naga's arm within the liquid.
After completing this process, Su Ping let out a long sigh.
Whether it succeeded or not, he knew that it had to be done step by step.
This was his first attempt, and he was using the arm of a Holy Rank ferocious beast. If the first step encountered problems and failed, it would not only damage the materials but also deal a significant blow to his confidence and lead to a lengthy search for solutions.
However, if it succeeded, he would be overjoyed.
But if it failed, Su Ping wouldn't have the time or energy to extensively research this elusive cultivation method.
So, Su Ping turned to Jiao Ji:
"Senior Water Sovereign, I apologize for keeping you waiting. I'll go have breakfast, and then I'll come to check your condition and make arrangements for treatment!"
As Su Ping said, after identifying Jiao Ji's ailment, it wasn't a difficult task for him, given his profound understanding of souls.
However, apart from treatment, what was more crucial was that Jiao Ji's condition might be connected to Su Ping's ideas about this new type of companion beast he envisioned! It wouldn't take more than a moment now.
Jiao Ji nodded, and Su Ping, along with Meng Yao and Zhu Hong, headed to the Heart of Ten Thousand Spirits' cafeteria.
However, just as they sat down, Su Ping's body stiffened.
At that moment, the All Spirit Compendium provided feedback that surprised him:
【Critical cultivation progress obtained! Companion beast 'Eye Demon' evolution form 'Annihilation Eye' second evolution method breakthrough! Improve the second evolution method, reducing the required general experience by 10,000 points. Currently, 10,000 points of general experience value are required to forcefully improve the second evolution method of the Annihilation Eye!】
Upon receiving this feedback, Su Ping froze in place.
Then, a smile appeared on his face as he realized what made the second evolution method of the Annihilation Eye different.
His idea was correct; possession-type companion beasts were indeed feasible.
