Chapter 178: Chapter 178- Soul Energy (3)

Advantages: Allows for more detailed and controlled memory exploration. Can unveil specific information hidden deep within the target’s mind.

Disadvantages: Requires a deep mental connection, which could be mentally exhausting for both the cultivator and the target. Inadvertent changes to the target’s memory might occur.

Echoes of the Past Insight, Attribute- Dark, Grade- High Tier Heaven Grade, Cost- 70,000 Mischief points—Description: this skill allows the cultivator to establish a temporary empathetic link with the target’s consciousness. By syncing their breathing and focus, the cultivator gains glimpses of the target’s memories.

Advantages: Provides a subtle way to gather insights and information from the target’s memories without direct intrusion.

Disadvantages: The shared empathetic link might also convey the target’s emotions, causing emotional turmoil for the cultivator, especially when encountering traumatic memories.

Soulbound Technique, Memory Ripple Flow, Echoes of the Past Insight, were just some of the few battle skills, there were more.

Yang Chen became impressed as he continued to read more. He had to admit, the list that was prepared by Amon, was quite organised. He shortened down the description to the most crucial part and even listed down the advantages and disadvantages.

If it was just him, it would take him hours or even a day just to go through all that lengthy information. Amon was quite handy, believe it.

"You!!"...

Leaving aside all that, there were a lot of options to choose from. Each of the skills sounded impressive and had their own advantages and disadvantages. And the fact that Amon listed these ones among the many others, meant that these skills were the crème of the corps, the best of the best.

Plus all of them were useful in regards to his current conundrum. It wouldn’t matter if he chose any one of them. However, Yang Chen was a punctilious person.

In his previous life, when he played the games, he used to make sure that he had the right set of skills for any given quest he was tackling. Even after reincarnating to this world in a different body, this trait of his did not go away.

Until he found the right skill, he would continue to pick his brain and agonise over it.

"If I go with the standard method of the higher the cost the better the item, the [Echoes of the Past Insight] which costs higher than all the other battle skills, at 70,000 mischief points, seemed to be the better choice"

"However, if I look at the advantages and the disadvantages, the [Mind Weaving Archive] appears to be the best choice. Ahhh, this is hard. All of the skill looks useful. If only I had a shit ton of points, I would have bought all of them"

Yang Chen scratched his head in frustration before looking at Amon seeking his help.

"You did this deliberately, didn’t you? You intentionally put so many best options because you knew it would make me miserable to pick out the best option among the lot. You are quite spiteful, seeking revenge for even the smallest of grievances".

How could Yang Chen not see it, this guy deliberately made the list as so because of the thought he had about him being handy.

"Kukuku.. brat now you know what happens if you make fun of me?" Amon floated around laughing at his misery.

"Out with it already, tell me which one is the best skill that you picked for me" Yang Chen snarled.

Over on the side, the bandit leader who was restrained with the shadow chains, was silently looking at the person who intruded on their territory and killed all of his comrades.

This demonic cultivator tried to interrogate him; however, his spirit wasn’t something that would easily falter, that was what he thought up until now.

However, his face at this moment was terror stricken as he looked at Yang Chen who was glancing blankly in the air and talking to himself. Even though there was no one other than the two of them here.

’There is no doubt about it, he is mad. All Demonic cultivators are madman’ The spirit of the bandit leader couldn’t help but waver as he wondered that.

"Well, there are no best ones among the lot. You can pick any one, all of them are useful in your current situation. However, the one I want you to learn is this one" Amon swiped with his trident and pointed at one of the skills.

"Soul’s Timeless Archive? Why this one? It’s cost is lower than all the other skills on the list" Yang Chen looked unconvinced.

"You brat, stop judging everything by its cost. There are many things in this world whose value is unknown or hidden. Would you pass a diamond thinking it is just a stone? No right. The same is the case here. Look at the description carefully"

On Amon’s insistence, Yang Chen carefully read through the description of the skill. That was when he noticed a few points he missed previously.

Soul’s Timeless Archive, Attribute- Chaos, Grade- High Tier Heaven Grade Soul Skill, Cost- 55,000 Mischief Points—Description: The Soul’s Timeless Archive technique is a profound soul skill that allows the cultivator to create an internal archive within the target’s mind. By establishing a connection with the target’s soul, the cultivator can access and analyze the target’s memories, extracting information more efficiently.

Advantages: Complete Memory, using this technique one can completely read through the target’s memories as if they are their own. Preise Information Extraction, the Soul’s Timeless Archive is a profound technique that can allow one to filter the unnecessary information and search for the most relevant ones. Confidentiality, as it is a high tier soul skill, it ensures that the information extracted remains confidential. Only those with a considerable achievement in soul energy can notice the skill’s use.

Disadvantages: Mental strain, establishing and maintaining the soul link with the target’s soul places a strain on the cultivator’s soul energy and continuously drains them. Extended or frequent use can lead to soul backlash and soul energy going out of control.
