The Brilliant Fighting Master

Chapter 106: Soul Eating Spell

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“It’s called the Soul Eating Spell. I cannot cast it by force. The person I cast it on has to accept it of their own free will. If they had been reluctant, the spell wouldn’t have worked,” Jiang Chen explained.

“What can the spell do?” Wen Xin asked.

“Turn them into loyal servants who obey me under all circumstances.”

Wen Xin took a deep breath and said, “Such a powerful spell only needs a few drops of blood to take effect?”

“It wasn’t average blood. It was essence blood,” Jiang Chen said.

“Essence blood?” Not until then did Wen Xin notice Jiang Chen’s pale face. He looked fatigued.

Then, Jiang Chen took a huge amount of Revival Elixirs to recover the color on his face.

“What are you going to do with them? Are you going to take them back to the Redcloud Peak?”

Meng Hao was sizing up Chu Luo and the other three. He still couldn’t believe the loyal look they’d had when they were with Jiang Chen.

“After leaving here, you can go back to the Isle of Sky. Practice hard there so that one day, you can work for me. Without my permission, you cannot tell anyone about the nature of our relationship,” Jiang Chen said.

“Understood, master.”

Chu Luo and the other three didn’t show any hesitation, as if Jiang Chen’s words were imperial edicts.

“Master, this is the Seven Transformations Elixir my martial arts master gave me. It will help enhance master’s state.” Chu Luo took out a small wooden box and opened it. There was a azure panacea similar to jade inside. Jiang Chen smelled a strong medical aroma.

Seven Transformations Elixir?!

Wen Xin was surprised. This was the unique panacea of the Isle of Sky. Only awarded to key disciples, it was an important panacea for practitioners to break through the late stage of the Gathering Yuan State to the Mental Wander State.

“Keep it. I won’t take your practice resources. And call me young lord in the future,” Jiang Chen said.

“Thank you, young lord.”

Chu Luo was surprised. She was almost brought to tears by Jiang Chen’s words.

“Why don’t you give the panacea to me?” Wen Xin wanted to test how powerful the Soul Eating Spell was, so she said that intentionally.

Chu Luo closed the box and looked at her warily, then suddenly recalled that Wen Xin was Jiang Chen’s friend. So she said, “If young lord wants me to give it to you, I’ll give it to you.”

Although she meant it, Wen Xin could see she actually was unwilling to do it.

“It’s so powerful. It won’t change one’s character, but whoever’s under this spell will obey their master in every way,” Wen Xin thought.

Wen Xin wanted to keep testing. Suddenly, she recalled a rumor. It was said that Chu Luo had been in love with Ning Haotian. She said, “Your master will compete for the leadership of the Natural Law School with Ning Haotian. Do you have any information to offer him?”

Chu Luo glanced at Jiang Chen and then exchanged a look with her apprentice sisters.

“Ning Haotian is influential in the Fire Field. I don’t recommend that young lord compete with him now.”

The three female disciples commented one by one.

“Young lord is skilled at swordsmanship. With more time, he will surpass Ning Haotian for sure. It’s just a matter of time.”

“Ning Haotian has holy pulse. He could enhance a lot in one day’s practice. It will be difficult for young lord to catch him.”

What they said made sense and corresponded with their characters. They looked normal, so if anyone who hadn’t seen what happened to them saw this scene, they would just seem like loyal servants.

Then Chu Luo said, “That being said, young lord still has a chance. I’ve heard that Ning Haotian is practicing more slowly than before. It’s been said that there is something wrong with his holy pulse.”

“Where did you get this information?” Jiang Chen asked.

“Ning Haotian has a social circle. I’m part of this circle. We all regarded him as a genius and thought he would achieve the Mental Wander State in a few years, so we calculated how long it would take him based on his practicing speed. Now we’ve found that compared to the result we’ve calculated, Ning Haotian has been progressing at a much slower speed.”

“The higher the state you’re in, the slower you’ll progress. Everyone knows that,” Wen Xin refuted her.

“Yes, you’re right, but we also took that into account and referred to the time it took other geniuses to advance for the calculation.”

Chu Luo noticed Jiang Chen was listening to her earnestly, so she continued, “Ning Haotian’s right-hand man once found him screaming painfully during practice, covering the spots where his meridians were.”

“When was that?” Jiang Chen asked.

“A couple of months ago. I can’t recall exactly when. Ning Haotian forbade us to talk about it or disclose the information to others. It’s the first time I’ve talked about it, since young lord is interested to know,” Chu Luo said.

“Ha, this is great!”

This was unexpected good news for Jiang Chen. If he wasn’t wrong, at the same time as he was recovering his holy pulse, Ning Haotian’s holy pulse was disappearing.

“This is Sky Yuan Elixir. It can purify your genuine yuan. It’s your reward,” Jiang Chen gave Chu Luo a handful of Sky Yuan Elixirs.

“Thank you, young lord!” Chu Luo was happy. She was beaming.

Wen Xin noticed it wasn’t the panacea that made Chu Luo happy. She was happy because Jiang Chen had rewarded her.

It was similar to how dogs reacted to their master’s praise and petting.

What’s more, the other three female disciples envied her. They wished they could have been praised by Jiang Chen as well.

“Terrible. It’s terrible. Such a spell...” For the first time Wen Xin felt lucky that she was a friend of Jiang Chen’s instead of an enemy.

“Don’t tell others about the spell,” Jiang Chen said to them.

“Of course,” Meng Hao agreed right away.

At this moment, Dorchid came back with the corpse on her back covered by a white cloth.

“You’re not going to kill her?”

Dorchid had no idea what had happened there. She was surprised to see Chu Luo alive.

“She regretted what she had done, so she recognized me as her master,” Jiang Chen said.

“Oh?”

Dorchid was confused. Knowing nothing about the spell, she found his words ridiculous, but she was still in deep sorrow, so she didn’t try to get to the bottom of it. She just said, “Let’s leave here.”

“Okay. Just one second.”

Jiang Chen ran towards the statue of the general and estimated its height. He put it into his mustardseed ring when he made sure it could hold the statue.

“Can you take this thing out with you?” Wen Xin said.

“This statue is pretty complicated. It’s a mix of spiritual weapons, tactical formations and secret methods of the Era of the Hero. It’s used to guard the imperial mausoleum. The guy who designed it of course wouldn’t want it away from the mausoleum, so he left a restraining order on it.

“There are two levels. The first level of the restraining order will awaken the statue as soon as it leaves the imperial mausoleum, so that it can kill every living thing in front of it. As for the second level, if the statue is awoken outside, it will fight until its death without differentiating friends from enemies.”

“So why do you want to take it?” Wen Xin was confused.

“If a person is even smarter than the designer, of course he will be able to crack the restraining order and make it his own,” Jiang Chen smiled.

“Are you supposed to be that smarter person?” Wen Xin rolled her eyes. She sensed the confidence in his tone.

Jiang Chen grinned and didn’t answer. He glanced at the exit on the other side of the Guardian Palace and said, “Let’s go. Head for the Supreme Underground Palace. Let’s leave as soon as possible. We’ve gained a lot on this trip, but it doesn’t mean anything if we can’t leave this place.”

“That’s true.”

Wen Xin agreed with him. They had been trapped underground for almost a whole night.
