Chapter 397: Chapter 369: Ghost Spirit

Even though this fellow had already reached the peak Perfected level, and his soul manipulation skills had seemingly risen to a level comparable to that of an Infant God to a certain degree, Wang Zijia was still confident in completing his memory extraction.

In the Chaotic Sea of Knowledge, he had no other constants, but in the direction of the Illusion Technique of Mind, Wang Zijia was very confident.

Of course, he didn’t have a professional memory extraction technique, but the numerous mind spells added together were almost enough, only making the person under the spell suffer more.

Of course, Wang Zijia could also Demon Seed, then torture the opponent, and let the opponent use the Painting Dao Illusion Symbol to extract his own memories.

But this Ghost Spirit was adept at soul manipulation, and Wang Zijia didn’t trust the information he himself had extracted. Fortunately, he was in the Chaotic Sea of Knowledge at this moment, so he just needed to be patient.

Under the erosion of Wang Zijia’s mind charms, he gained a new understanding of this fellow’s mental and soul power.

This guy’s soul power was definitely close to the Infant God level, or could even be considered at the Pseudo-God Level.

Under the status of Wang Zijia in the Chaotic Sea of Knowledge, trying to invade the opponent’s mind, soul search, or search for remnants of souls was incredibly challenging.

It was as if countless pieces of sandpaper were being used to grind a small piece of iron. Although the quantity was vast, there was a gap in power level.

Fortunately, he could see the progress, albeit it was very slow!

"Senior, spare me!"

"Uncle Master, your disciple is truly wronged!"

"What do you want, what do you want to know, just ask!"

"Since you’re a disciple of the Wanyu Epheme Sect, should you know that using memory extraction and soul controlling taboo techniques on fellow disciples is a serious violation of the sect rules?"

"Damn it... if you dare, kill me!"

"..."

As Wang Zijia continued his erosion, the opponent resorted to various forms of verbal pleas, curses, roars, and howls, all of which fell on deaf ears for Wang Zijia.

This refining process surprisingly took several dozen days!

Wang Zijia had to admit his admiration for him. This fellow had actually managed to endure the torment of soul refining for more than a month.

Truly a big shot in soul manipulation!

However, even so, this fellow eventually met his end under Wang Zijia’s little-by-little erosion.

With a flicker of spiritual light, Wang Zijia was slightly taken aback as scenes started to appear in front of him, rapidly flickering like electricity.

"It worked!"

Wang Zijia showed a pleased expression. The hard bone that had taken him over a month to successfully extract memories from had finally crumbled.

Immediately after, Wang Zijia found that the sealed remnant soul in his hand began to tremble, and its illusory body slowly began to disintegrate.

This was the drawback of memory extraction techniques. These techniques essentially punched through the other’s mental defenses and consciousness for forced reading and memory rifling.

The subject of memory extraction was either severely damaged or turned into an idiot. Or like now, their soul was completely shattered.

Wang Zijia’s eyes flashed with spiritual light as he quickly browsed through some important information, and blood jade books in front of him continuously generated pages of records.

The hardened soul that had taken him more than a month to successfully extract memories from only lasted for quarter of an hour after the completion of the extraction before it completely disintegrated.

Luckily, Wang Zijia had already extracted almost everything he needed.

What surprised Wang Zijia was that after this fellow disintegrated, perhaps due to being in the Chaos Space and it being a special place.

After the remnant soul disintegrated, it did not completely disappear. Instead, part of its power turned into a cluster of less pure soul energy, or could it be called soul essence?

In addition, many runes also crumbled out, with some mysteriously disappearing and some merging together, eventually forming a cluster of illusory runes in front of Wang Zijia.

Wang Zijia looked at these runes that seemed like a technique and tentatively reached out to touch them.

As expected, just like accepting the inheritance from the Fake Taoist, some information quickly came to mind.

This was surprisingly the inheritance of a Third-Class Scripture, and also one of the core techniques of the opponent.

Pseudo-Soul Puppet Scroll (Beginner 330,000/600,000) top-grade,

Pseudo-Soul Puppet: Comprehensive scripture, containing control soul, remove soul, search soul, refining soul, drive soul, undead, etc. Can extract the living soul, refine a vice soul, usually used as a puppet, with the effect of an avatar outside the body.

Encountered a fatal crisis, can switch consciousness with the deputy soul and use it to die instead.

This technique has a good strengthening effect on the soul. After cultivating to Great Mastery, you can obtain the Infant God of an Infant God cultivator, or the soul of a great monster, refining special deputy bodies, making pseudo-infant god deputy souls, which are of great help to the promotion to Infant God.

Looking at the effect of this technique, Wang Zijia could roughly guess what’s going on with Ghost Spirit.

Probably because the method of obtaining this technique is similar to a semi-transfer of inheritance, therefore, this technique does not start from the very beginning of progress.

It’s estimated that it’s like receiving an initiation, well, a passive initiation.

After accepting the technique, Wang Zijia looked at the remaining cluster of soul essence. Since there was no immediate use for it, Wang Zijia pocketed it for later study.

He opened the book and began to carefully read and sort out the memory information of the Ghost Spirit, Yu Guangye.

After a while, Wang Zijia finally managed to organize his basic information.

Yu Guangye, originally named Xianyu Shaogang, was a direct disciple of the Bone Soul Sect’s Xianyu Family. Due to cultivation problems, he was hurt at the root.

More than 390 years ago, a Great Cultivator from the Bone Soul Sect personally transplant his soul and body, making him become a disciple of the small Yu Family of the Wanyu Sect, and starting his infiltration.

With the covert support from various directions within the Bone Soul Sect, he gradually rose to prominence, climbing step by step to the position of vice dean of the Outer Sect dormitory, making him one of the most successfully infiltrated among the few within the many secret halls of the Bone Soul Sect.

As for why he appeared in this world?

It’s all a series of strange coincidences and opportunities.

Previously, the second wave of disciples from the Sect who had descended to the Qinglian Realm had accidentally discovered the Qinglian Sword Sect’s affairs and spread it within a certain range of the Sect.

The Ghost Spirit began to set up a plan, allowing the Ghost Sheep Secret Hall of Wanyu Fairy City to send a batch of newcomers into the Sect, in an attempt to plant insiders among the next batch of disciples from the Lower Realm.

The plight of Wang Zijia’s previous incarnation and his father began because of this.

Subsequently, Wang Zijia joined the Sect, and after the competition ended, it was time for the previous wave of disciples to descend.

The Ghost Spirit learnt from the information channels in the Sect Dormitory that the Sect had basically confirmed the information about Qinglian Sword Sect. Hence, during that descending process, it used a method to hide its spare soul inside a disciple’s body to smuggle into the Lower Realm.

Originally, it had planned to feel its way around and see if it could get the ancient inheritance of the Qinglian Sword Sect.

However, even it couldn’t deal with the First Forbidden Area!

Keep in mind, it had descended with the previous wave of disciples. At the time of its descent, the Qinglian Realm was yet to experience its first Spiritual Energy Tide. The so-called revival of spiritual energy was merely an initial revival caused by the disciples’ descent and the downstream flow of spiritual energy.

By then, the First Forbidden Area was already unfathomably deep.

So it couldn’t achieve its goal, and during that time problems arose at the main body’s end and the Sect discovered it.

To avoid being caught by the Sect and having its soul searched or something, it committed suicide.

Before dying, it made some arrangements with the Ghost Spirit Dark Hall, swapping consciousness with the spare soul, allowing it to die in its place.

Just like that, through a series of strange twists and turns, it managed to survive.

Because it realized it was exposed, once the children from Wanyu who had descended ascended again, it went into hiding in the Qinglian Realm. While hiding, it kept collecting materials, started building an altar, and attempted to anchor and connect to the Bone Soul Sect.

This was its second purpose in sending the spare soul to the Lower Realm: to steal the Qinglian Realm for the Bone Soul Sect!

Of course, initially, this realm was too deprived. It was difficult to get any good materials and building a boundary altar was basically impossible.

Luckily, the Spiritual Energy Tide occurred later and its power rapidly increased.

It had almost sacrificed the entire population of the Qinglian Continent, spent over seventy years, and relied on a Spirit Stone Vein, to initially complete the preliminary construction of a boundary altar and successfully connect to the Sect.

Afterwards, all it needed to do was to continuously improve the boundary altar, rotate the spatial position of the Qinglian Realm towards the Bone Soul Sect, and upgrade the altar to a Bidirectional Ascension Passage.

Having served meritously behind enemy lines for 400 years and bringing back a mini world of great potential, it should be richly rewarded— he might even get to live another round!

······

After going through the general information, Wang Zijia looked shocked!

’He has already connected with the Bone Soul Sect and completed the initial positioning?!’

’I cannot wait anymore, I need to quickly set up a Bidirectional Ascension Passage, pull this world near the Sect, and completely anchor this realm.’

’If I delay it, there might be some mishap. Once the high-level of the Bone Soul Sect realize there’s an issue with the covert activities, they might use a lot of energy to send down some big shots. I certainly couldn’t hold up against that.’

’This is the least of my concerns. If it becomes like the Fei Peng World and turns into a Lower World Battlefield······’

Wang Zijia made a quick decision.

Once again, he organized the information from Yu Guangye and stored it safely. After confirming that there were no issues, did Wang Zijia exit the Sea of Consciousness.

······

"Wow?"

"WOW!!"

"WOW!!"

As Wang Zijia exited the Sea of Consciousness and slowly woke up, the Five Ghosts, who had been watching over Wang Zijia for over forty days, showed expressions of surprise.

Their youthful faces lit up, full of joy.

Wang Zijia smiled, looking at the five Ghost entities in front of him. They, no, they should now be considered first-grade demonic beings, right?

Anyway, they were much smarter than they used to be as rebellious babies.; to some extent, they should now be considered a new type of life form.

"You all did well!" Wang Zijia patted Big Baby’s head.

Big Baby squinted his eyes in pleasure, looking thoroughly satisfied, like a playful puppy.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

The remaining four babies had smug looks on their faces, while the youngest looked at Wang Zijia with pitiful eyes.

"You all did well too!" Wang Zijia praised each of them and gently stroked each one’s head.

As the Five Ghosts beamed in happiness, Wang Zijia put them away.

He looked around to confirm that nothing was left out and then left the basement.

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

"Master Ancestor, have you fully recovered?!"

At the entrance of the Demon-suppressing Tower, there were two disciple Sacrificial Priests who were on guard round the clock.

Seeing Wang Zijia come out, their faces lit up simultaneously.</p
