Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Soul Capturing Technique_1

The man in the Zhongshan suit was desperately trying to escape, but whether it was his martial arts strength or his cultivation realm, he was far inferior to Su Chengyu. He simply could not escape from the trap of Su Chengyu’s Five-finger Mountain.

Su Chengyu leaped forward, directly blocking the man in the Zhongshan suit.

"Use any tricks you have," Su Chengyu said casually.

"If you kill me, the Xuanmen won’t let you get away with it. We can negotiate; whatever you wish to know, I can tell you, as long as you let me go."

The man in the Zhongshan suit was no longer arrogant and pleaded with a hint of desperation.

"You’re not in a position to negotiate with me. As for what I want to know, I have my ways to find out."

Su Chengyu no longer wanted to waste time with this guy. In a flash, he charged forward, and the man in the Zhongshan suit had no choice but to put up a desperate struggle.

As the leading sect among the eight major sects in the martial world, the Xuanmen disciples were naturally formidable. The man in the Zhongshan suit demonstrated his martial skills against Su Chengyu, showing off refined moves.

However, his power was too weak. Su Chengyu only used the Illusory Cross Fist of the Cai Fist School and soon defeated him.

With a thud!

The man in the Zhongshan suit was sent flying by Su Chengyu’s punch, he spat out a mouthful of blood and his body slammed into the ruins.

Su Chengyu walked over to the ruins. The man in the Zhongshan suit, severely injured and covered in dust, was dragged out of the ruins by Su Chengyu.

"Don’t kill me; I beg you not to kill me. I can recommend you to join Xuanmen. With your talent, you will definitely be valued in Xuanmen and receive thorough cultivation. Your future would be limitless."

The man pleaded desperately, completely forgetting that just two minutes ago, he was still disdainfully sneering at Su Chengyu, vowing to completely eliminate him.

"Join Xuanmen? I’m not interested. What I am interested in is why you wanted to kill me," Su Chengyu said calmly.

"I can tell you, I can tell you anything you want to know. My name is Chen Xian, I..."

The man in the Zhongshan suit spoke incoherently, trying to seize every opportunity to survive.

But Su Chengyu didn’t give him the chance. He pointed his finger like a sword and pierced it through Chen Xian’s forehead, performing the Soul Capturing Technique on him.

The Soul Capturing Technique is aimed at the soul’s divine sense and can snatch away other people’s divine sense memories. As one’s power increases, the technique can launch a divine sense attack, silent and traceless, causing the victim’s soul to collapse and die, or turn him into a fool.

This was Su Chengyu’s first time performing the Soul Capturing Technique and he wasn’t skillful; the overwhelming influx of information made him feel dizzy and caused nausea.

Su Chengyu quickly withdrew his finger, sorted out the useful information, completely destroyed other soul information, and finally got rid of the discomfort.

People who have been subjected to the Soul Capturing Technique will suffer severe damage to their souls and become fools.

Chen Xian’s eyes were vacant, he had lost all his memories and had become a complete fool. Su Chengyu couldn’t be bothered to kill him anymore.

Su Chengyu took a few talismans from Chen Xian and threw them into his storage bag. They were basically useless.

In addition to the talismans, Chen Xian also had a compass. This was a magic artifact that every disciple of Xuanmen had, which could be used to observe celestial phenomena, examine Feng Shui, find dragon veins, and calculate the five elements.

From Chen Xian’s memory, Su Chengyu had a rough understanding of Xuanmen. Considered the descendants of King Wen of Zhou, being excellent at interpreting "The I Ching" and becoming a powerful sect in its peak, it was not something to be taken lightly.

However, with the changing times, Xuanmen gradually declined and was no longer as prominent as it used to be.

Chen Xian was not a true cultivator, but had forcefully awakened his divine sense through elixirs. Xuanmen had a mysterious elixir called the Xuanxin Pill.

Once ingested, this pill can awaken one’s divine sense, allowing one to cultivate Xuanmen Techniques. The downside, however, is that this pill impedes one’s ability to advance their cultivation stage through their own efforts. For example, to advance from the first level of the Qi Refining Stage to the second level, they could not cultivate and make a breakthrough on their own, they could only continue to rely on the elixir.

After achieving merit, disciples of Xuanmen would be rewarded with breakthrough elixirs to help them advance in their cultivation stages.

However, due to the difficulty of refining the Xuanxin Pill, and the fact that each advancement in cultivation stage required even more Xuanxin Pills, the growth and development of the Xuanmen sect were restricted.

"There’s no shortcut on the path of cultivation. Especially, the threshold of spiritual awakening could stop ninety-nine percent of the people. Forcefully awakening one’s divine sense through the use of elixirs does not have much benefit. Among the disciples of Xuanmen, those with real talent would certainly not resort to this method."

Su Chengyu left the construction site, walking and sorting through the useful information in Chen Xian’s memory.

"The one who wants to harm the Lin Family turns out to be the Yuan Family. They’ve kept themselves very well hidden."

From Chen Xian’s memory, Su Chengyu also understood why Chen Xian wanted to kill him, and the actual culprit behind the Lin Family’s curse.

The scheme was plotted by the Yuan Family, led by Yuan Zhendong, the sworn brother of Lin Zhengxun. Yuan Chaoqun, the fiance of Lin Chuxue, joined Xuanmen and under the guidance of his master Chen Zhonghan, they planned to destroy Lin Family with the curse.

Yuan Chaoqun was extremely cunning. Over the years, he kept a low profile, not competing or seeking any attention. Everyone thought of him as ordinary. In dealings with others, he was always courteous, leaving no room for criticism.

Even Lin Chuxue, who usually had a strong aversion towards men, showed no signs of being on guard against Yuan Chaoqun.

If he hadn’t helped the Lin Family, they would have been destroyed and killed, without even knowing who was behind it all.

If this information had come to light a few days earlier, Su Chengyu would definitely have informed the Lin Family. But now, he didn’t want to say anything anymore.

Lin Zhengxun was an ungrateful and self-centered man. Even if Su Chengyu saved him a hundred times, as soon as his own interests were at stake, he would betray others without any hesitation.

Yuan Zhendong and Lin Zhengxun jointly founded the Zhengdong Group, each holding fifty percent of the shares. Later on, Lin Zhengxun used various methods to reduce Yuan Zhendong’s ownership to very little. The Yuan Family was eventually ousted from the management of the Zhengdong Group and did not hold any position.

This plan was also proposed by Yuan Chaoqun, otherwise the Yuan Family might not have been able to keep the remaining shares.

Over the years, the Yuan Family seemed submissive and obedient towards the Lin Family. They did not compete or snatch anything, but they were actually biding their time, looking for an opportunity for revenge and to bring about the downfall of the Lin Family.

Even the shrewd Lin Zhengxun was deceived by the Yuan Family’s years of giving in and appearing weak. He did not take any action against the Yuan Family and continued to give them a part of the annual profits, for the sake of saving face.

Since the Yuan Family had the backing of Xuanmen, they would not let this go. It’s easy to dodge an open attack but hard to avoid a hidden one, and sooner or later, the Lin Family would stumble into trouble.

Of course, the duo of master and disciple, Chen Xian and Chen Zhonghan, were only minor figures within Xuanmen. Within Xuanmen, there were the Xuanhuang Four Halls, and Chen Zhonghan and his disciple were members of the Yellow Hall, similar to external disciples.

Su Chengyu returned home, not caring about what became of the Lin Family. After all, Lin Chuxue had also said that they owed each other nothing and that from then on, they would part ways.
