Chapter 571: Divine Soul Crystal
September 25, 2017
After opening the Legendary and Golden Treasure Chests, Lu HaiKong did not immediately reach for the Mythic Treasure Chest.
This guy had a habit of saving the best for last, so before opening the Mythic-level chest, Lu HaiKong first examined the items dropped by the three historical generals.
From those three unlucky fellows, Lu HaiKong naturally obtained three sets of secret manuals and the most precious three Hero Soul Stones.
With these three Hero Soul Stones in hand, the number of historical general Hero Soul Stones in Lu HaiKong's possession had reached an unprecedented amount.
Since Lu HaiKong's arrival in Jiuzhou, first was Gao Sheng Zhang Bao, then Yan Zheng Du Yuan, and now with Deng Mao Bian Xi and Zhang Liang, Lu HaiKong already had seven Hero Soul Stones from historical generals, and among them, Zhang Liang and Zhang Bao's stones were both top-tier. Even with just these Hero Soul Stones from historical generals, it was enough to fill up a Level 1 Spirit Map.
Lu HaiKong was considering whether he should first return to Bingzhou to put all these Hero Soul Stones into the Spirit Map. After all, these stones could only demonstrate their true value when used.
However, the Guangping City battle had just ended, and the Han Legion and the Yellow Turban Army might have unexpected movements at any time. Lu HaiKong couldn't leave for now.
So, this matter could only be put on hold temporarily. First, he needed to take stock of the harvest.
As for Zhang Liang and the other two, in addition to contributing Hero Soul Stones, they also left Lu HaiKong with four talisman papers, a token, and a crystal-like object.
First, Lu HaiKong noticed the four talisman papers, which were almost identical to the ones used by the Yellow Turban generals during the Guangping Battle.
Lu HaiKong had seen Zhang Yan use them before; it was clearly a type of talisman that allowed instant positional transfer, and Lu HaiKong was extremely interested in this life-saving item.
Upon seeing these four talisman papers, Lu HaiKong immediately appraised them with his Identification Technique. To his surprise, these four talismans turned out to be of two different kinds.
Teleportation Talisman (3 pieces)
Item Type: Consumable/Mysterious Item
Effect: Can set a position within a 15 li range and instantly teleport to that location upon use.
Usage: 1/1
Position Swap Talisman
Item Type: Consumable/Mysterious Item
Item Effect: After use, can swap positions with a designated person within a 15 li radius.
Usage: 1/1
"The Teleportation and Position Swap Talismans are both for escaping. I'll give them to Moon Shadow; that fellow used the Radiant Pendant before." Lu HaiKong made a decision as soon as he saw the attributes of the two talismans.
Among his subordinates, the one most likely and most frequently facing danger was Moon Shadow. After all, Moon Shadow's position was unique, requiring her to often infiltrate deep into enemy territory. So, giving these items to Moon Shadow was the most suitable choice.
He didn't have the thought of keeping one for himself. Firstly, with his current strength, he had no use for these items. Whenever he traveled, he was always accompanied by his large group of subordinates.
Moreover, in the current situation, if Lu HaiKong truly encountered a situation where he needed to use these talismans, it would likely be when facing Zhang Jiao. These talismans might not be effective against Zhang Jiao.
And it's not Lu HaiKong's style to use these talismans to escape, leaving his trusted generals behind, is it?
After putting away the talisman, Lu HaiKong casually cast his Appraisal Art on the token and the crystal.
Upon seeing the attributes of these two items, Lu HaiKong couldn't help but feel delighted. It seemed that this guy's luck had been quite good recently.
The token turned out to be another System Building Upgrade Token. With this, Lu HaiKong now had three System Building Upgrade Tokens in his possession, and the promotion of the Hall of Spirits was now within reach. All he needed to do was find the time to return to Bing Prefecture and he could enhance the Hall of Spirits.
The Spirit Map's slots were already full, and Lu HaiKong had been concerned. If he were to fight another battle, kill a few more historical generals, and obtain their Hero Soul Stones, it would be awkward if he couldn't fit them all in the Spirit Map when he returned to Bing Prefecture.
Now, with three System Building Upgrade Tokens in hand, this awkward situation could finally be avoided.
Aside from the System Building Upgrade Tokens, the effect of the last crystal was even more eye-opening for Lu HaiKong.
Divine Soul Crystal
Item Type: Consumable/Mysterious
Item Effect: Able to separate a Hero Trait from a Hero Soul Stone and pass it on to any general!
Uses: 1/1
In the 169th book, the effect of this item is clearly stated!
This is an extremely powerful item. If it were just this one Divine Soul Crystal, its effect might not seem so impressive, but when combined with Zhang Liang's Hero Soul Stone, the result would be an existence that defies the heavens.
Both of Zhang Liang's Hero Traits are of a heaven-defying level. With one Hero Trait, Huangfu Song's army of over 200,000 could instantly rebel by 30%. The other Trait, by borrowing the strength of his own camp's generals, could forcefully increase his Strength to over 100.
Either of these two Hero Traits, once separated, would greatly benefit Lu HaiKong.
However, what slightly worried Lu HaiKong was whether this Divine Soul Crystal could separate the Exclusive and Unique Hero Traits.
If it could, then everyone would be happy. But if not, the situation would be tragic, wasting an item, and possibly even damaging Zhang Liang's Hero Soul Stone.
Upon further thought, this possibility wasn't entirely unlikely, but the temptation of success was too great, making it difficult for Lu HaiKong to decide.
In the end, Lu HaiKong didn't use the Divine Soul Crystal, opting to keep it and wait until after the Yellow Turban Rebellion to decide.
Anyway, even if the Divine Soul Crystal could truly be effective, Lu HaiKong couldn't find a suitable general to inherit Zhang Liang's two Traits at the moment.
Lu HaiKong understood that traits weren't simply given to you; they required certain conditions to be mastered.
For example, Zhang Liang's two Traits, one of which, Uprising, was an Exclusive Trait. Lu HaiKong didn't hold much hope, and even if it could be separated, the Strength and Command of the inherited general would likely need to be over 90 to activate it.
As for the other Hero Trait, it was estimated that a Strength of at least 90 and a Command of 85 or higher would be required to activate it. Dian Wei met the Strength requirement, but his Command was lacking.
Moreover, Dian Wei already had his own Martial Arts, so he didn't need to inherit this Trait.
In fact, Lu HaiKong was still somewhat looking forward to the Hall of Spirits' final accessory, the Spirit Gate!
