Two complete techniques surfaced in his mind.
“Divine Intimidation Technique”
“Upon reaching the minor completion stage, it can intimidate enemies, and exert an extra pressure on creatures like ethereal souls and spirits.”
“Once reaching the completion stage, it can not only intimidate but also absorb weak souls.”
“If the spirit consciousness can be projected externally, the effect of intimidating the divine will be even better!”
This was not some unorthodox technique, but rather it pursued the manipulation of one’s own divine soul and spirit consciousness.
If the foundation of the divine soul is deep enough, then there would naturally be an innate advantage in combat against opponents of the same order.
If the divine soul foundation isn’t deep enough, then caution is required when using this technique.
If used carelessly, it would result in no effects at worst and severe soul injuries that are difficult to heal at worst.
Luo Chen thought that this was only natural for the latter.
If one used the method of the “Soul-Refining True Technique” to achieve the foundation establishment of Path of Soul, then they are bound to possess an extremely horrifying divine soul endowment.
This Divine Intimidation Technique was merely icing on the cake or added wings to a tiger.
The so-called rebound was deemed groundless talk.
Luo Chen himself felt that his divine soul foundation was passable. After experiencing a heart’s test, his divine soul foundation had become twice as powerful as an average person’s.
As a result, the number of pill refinements had also doubled.
After later cultivating the Ming God’s Divine Cleanse, although it was aimed mainly at cultivating willpower.
But after enduring extreme pain time and time again, his divine soul was slowly but surely becoming more solid and profound, albeit at a slow and weak rate.
Perhaps it wasn’t necessarily bigger than before, but it was undoubtedly more substantial than that of ordinary people.
With this as the basis, it was feasible to practice the Divine Intimidation Technique.
“Hmm?”
Upon seeing the specific cultivation method of the Divine Intimidation Technique, Luo Chen suddenly let out a sound of surprise.
In the Qi Refinement Stage, where the spirit consciousness couldn’t be externally projected, it mainly used the eyes as the medium, with generally mediocre effects.
Luo Chen’s eyes, having already been imbued with the Spirit Vision Technique, had an innate advantage.
What surprised him was a memory that suddenly appeared in his mind.
On the Qingjiang Tavern, Gao Tingyuan had maintained eye contact with him for a long time.
At that time, he thought that the other party was deliberately not speaking, trying to gain the upper hand in the conversation.
This was a common negotiation tactic.
Looking back now, it was clear that Gao Tingyuan was using this technique at the time.
The more Luo Chen thought about it, the more he became convinced that this was the case.
“He had already started cultivating the Soul-Refining True Technique at that time!”
“Indeed, if one wants to devour and integrate external souls, they must first absorb the enemy’s soul.”
“The Divine Intimidation Technique is a prelude to the Soul-Refining True Technique, and he must have learnt it first.”
However, at that time, Luo Chen’s divine soul endowment was completely on par with his opponent.
As a result, Gao Tingyuan left empty-handed.
“It’s a pity that I didn’t know how to use my divine soul. Otherwise, I could have caused him to rebound!”
With a lingering fear, Luo Chen also felt it was a pity.
After confirming that Gao Tingyuan had also practiced this technique, Luo Chen became even more excited.
He remembered that before Gao Tingyuan died, his eyes had turned a shade of light green.
This was clearly the method used by the Divine Intimidation Technique to actively absorb weak souls.
However, it is a pity that Gao Tingyuan, not even at the minor completion stage, wanted to use methods at the major completion stage.
Moreover, Luo Chen withstood the training of the Ming God’s Divine Cleanse and had firm will and stable divine soul.
The opponent couldn’t pull his divine soul at all
Not only did the soul not get absorbed, but also broke free from the absorption effect.
As a result, Gao Tingyuan suffered a rebound and his divine soul was extinguished on the spot.
“So, in essence, I got him to rebound after all?”
With this thought, Luo Chen’s passion for this technique gradually waned and became more cautious.
Learning it, of course, is a must.
But using it, you can’t use it casually.
Otherwise, once a rebound occurs, it will end up tragically like Gao Tingyuan.
Not even having time to say something cruel like “I won’t let you off even if you’re dead,” he silently vanished.
“In addition to this Divine Intimidation Technique, the Soul Stabilization Oath also has its merits.”
Thinking of the other technique, Luo Chen’s eyes flickered with brilliance.
Unlike the Divine Intimidation Technique, the Soul Stabilization Oath may be a technique, but it isn’t difficult to cultivate – in fact, it’s quite simple.
The hard part of using it lies in needing a medium!
“Let’s learn them all!”
“Moreover, there is more than just these two techniques to learn!”
Luo Chen muttered to himself as many books appeared in his hand.
The first book was a second-order technique named “Mountain Collapse” that he purchased from Zhenlong Black Market for nine hundred spirit stones.
During the time when he was preparing to escape, he had perused through this technique vaguely.
Only after he got his hands on it did he realize that as expected of a second-order technique, it is indeed difficult.
To the extent that he didn’t know where to start.
To fully master Mountain Collapse, he first needed to learn three prelude techniques.
The first-order Fireball Technique, first-order Earth Rock Technique, and a first-order Wave Technique.
It required a total of three prelude techniques to finally fuse into this powerful second-order Fire-type technique.
After studying it thoroughly, Luo Chen understood why a clearly fire-series technique would have a name related to the earth series.
The reason was that one of the techniques he had to learn was the Earth-based Earth Rock Technique.
He definitely had to learn “Mountain Collapse”, not only because he had spent a lot of money on it, but also because of its described power.
Even among second-order techniques, it was not inferior to the powerful techniques known for their attacks, such as the Ten-Thousand Sword Technique, Ice Soul Divine Needle, and Thunder Quake.
“I thought this secret manual was sold too cheap. After a closer look, it turned out that it didn’t include the three prerequisite first-order techniques.”
“If you include these three, the price would probably soar above a thousand.”
If it were before, Luo Chen might have been troubled about how to collect the two other first-order techniques besides the Fireball Technique..
