Soul Master Manual

Chapter 40 Summoning the Soul
7 month 22 day.

The golden sun shines through and shines on the face, and the dust floats in the beam.

Li Changan, who had slept for four hours, pressed his temples, which were still a little restless, and got up from the floor of the library.

After becoming a master of spirits and receiving the feedback of "spirituality" from "spiritual balance" and spirit beasts, his "soul" continued to grow slowly.

Although the change in physical fitness was not obvious, it did allow Li Changan's mental strength to make a lot of progress.

In theory, he now sleeps six hours a day to ensure a good day's mental state.

It's just that he was too absorbed in reading yesterday, and he lost two hours of sleep, which still made his spirit a little sluggish.

But occasionally sleep a little less, the impact is not great.

"If you become a high-level spiritual master, no, even if you are only a fourth-level or fifth-level spiritual master, don't you need to sleep?"

While rubbing his head, he guessed from the bottom of his heart.

He looked at Xiao Huan who was curled up beside him, snoring with a small nose and shaking his ears from time to time, and smiled gently.

Squint.

【Name】: Phantom Cat

【Effort】: 30
(Phantom): 9
(Stealing): 5
(Dancing Claw): 10
(Shadow Escape): 6
【Efficiency】: 93
(Phantom): 25
(Stealing): 25
(Dancing Claw): 29
(Shadow Escape): 14
Looking at the information presented in front of him, he nodded with satisfaction.

The training in the past few days has been very effective. Not only has Xiao Huan mastered the "Shadow Escape" skill, but he has also raised his proficiency to C, which can be used in actual combat, and the proficiency of other skills has not fallen behind.

From the changes in the effort value, it can also be seen that it has not been lazy during this period of time.

Coupled with the current strength of the sixth level of security level, compared to when the contract was just concluded with him, I don't know how much stronger.

"Meow?"

(ˊ〇ˋ*)
Sensing the sight, Xiao Huan woke up with a long stretch.

Seeing Li Changan, she jumped into his arms like a joy, and rubbed hard.

"You really only shed your hair twice a year."

Looking at the hair sticking to the black windbreaker, Li Changan couldn't laugh or cry.

That is to say, both the windbreaker and Xiaohuan's fur are black, otherwise he wouldn't know what to do with them.

"Meow?" (Huh? Twice?)

Xiao Huan raised his head, his sapphire blue eyes blinked.

"Yes."

Li Changan couldn't help rubbing it twice, "The first half and the second half."

"."

Simple wash.

Li Changan picked up Xiao Douding who was still sleeping with the word "big" spread out heartlessly, stuffed it into his pocket, and walked out of the library with Xiao Huan, who was focused on "fighting" with Xiao Yugan, and walked down the stairs. Down.

"The little fish is almost eaten. Fortunately, yesterday's bonus came down, otherwise I would have to eat steamed buns again."

He left all the money at home, just thinking that he should pay a bonus when he comes back.

I just don't know how long the seven thousand and eight in my pocket can last.

Originally, I wanted to mention the food grade plan to the two little guys, but I guess I have to wait a little longer.

Pat your cheeks and lift your spirits.

"With the busyness of the Quiet Club, it is estimated that there will be new tasks soon, to make money!"

"Meow!" (Make money!)
The branch of the Quiet Meeting in the morning was extraordinarily quiet and deserted.

Their appearance injected some vitality into this cold environment.

Go all the way down to the morgue.

The light revealed in the crack of the door indicated that someone was inside.

Grandma Gu didn't rest all night?
With such doubts, Li Changan slowly opened the door.

Xiao Huan in his arms also cheered up immediately.

The scene of "frauding the corpse" yesterday is still vivid in my memory, so they couldn't help but be careless.

When the door of the morgue was fully opened and saw the corpse lying quietly on the long metal table, both Li Changan and Xiao Huan breathed a sigh of relief.

Almost left a psychological shadow.

Granny Gu is indeed still in the morgue.

When she noticed that someone opened the door and turned to look at Li Changan, she could even clearly see the bloodshot eyes in her eyes.

"Grandma, you haven't slept all night, have you?" Li Changan asked in a deliberate tone.

"You're here, just in time."

But Granny Gu didn't answer his question, instead she said something that Li Changan couldn't understand at once.

"You help me take care of it, I'm going to 'call the soul'."

"Soul calling?"

Li Changan was stunned, and looked down at Xiao Huan, who also looked bewildered.

Regardless of whether he could understand or not, Granny Gu closed her eyes, and under the special energy fluctuation, a small ritual formation appeared in front of her.

As the faint light flickered away, a spirit beast with purple scales, an upside-down triangle head, and seven-inch scales seemed to have a yellow ring on its body, appearing in the formation.

Spirit Beast Calling!

"Golden Ring Purple Snake."

Seeing this spirit beast, Li Changan said its name.

Another spirit beast of Grandma Gu?
Simultaneously.

Li Changan also recalled information about this spirit beast in his mind.

【Name】: Golden Ring Purple Snake
[attribute]: chaos
[Racial Potential]: Security Level Special Class

[Racial Skills]: Venomous Fangs, Poison Condensation, Soul Calling, Psychicism
【Strength】: Unknown
[Introduction]: A kind of spirit beast that inhabits the cemetery all the year round. Its physical fitness is not strong, but it contains corpse poison, so it needs to be extremely careful. The author communicates, but the veracity is open to question.

"Grandma, you want to wake up the soul of this corpse?!"

After recalling the information about the Golden Ring and Purple Snake, Li Changan understood what Granny Gu was going to do.

But he really didn't think that he could do it like this.

"Meow?!" (soul?)
Xiao Huan's expression was also dull, thinking that his soul was about to explode.

But Granny Gu's expression was very calm.

"Since the quality of a person's soul can be measured by 'di' as a unit, it proves that the soul is real. It's just that the soul power of an ordinary person is extremely weak, and it will naturally dissipate after a few days of death.

And the soul strength of a master of spiritual masters is far higher than that of ordinary people, so the speed of soul dissipation will be much slower. "

After a short pause, she continued to explain while taking out some bottles and jars:
"So if you can use the special power of spirit beasts, with the assistance of some spiritual materials and rituals, it's not that you can't communicate with dead 'people' at all."

As she spoke, she squinted at Li Changan.

"Have you ever seen a ghost-type spirit beast?"

Li Changan nodded stiffly.

"You haven't even learned how to use the power of 'soul' have you?"

Seeing him like that, Grandma Gu shook her head, and took out a thin piece of paper from the loose clothes that looked like a witch's robe.

"Soul vision, the most basic use of the 'soul' by a spiritual master is to check the state of a person's 'soul'. Of course, don't trust what you see too much. Some people can't be found when they are disguised. It is the most The basic way to use it is very simple.”

Soul Vision?

Li Changan just wanted to say that if he knew he had this ability earlier, maybe the investigation of the case at the Helong Mine would not be so troublesome.

But when he heard the back, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth.

He glanced at the method on the paper, and according to the method described on it, he really mastered it after a little study.

With a slight thought, Li Changan's dark brown eyes glowed slightly with a light blue halo.

Simultaneously.

In his line of sight, the surrounding environment has changed slightly.

Inside the corpse lying on the long table, there was a milky white light that was slowly dissipating.

Li Changan understood that this meant that the soul in the corpse was dissipating.

Then he looked at Grandma Gu.

But she saw that her soul was very peaceful.

Immediately realized, this is probably the disguise that Granny Gu said.

But when Li Changan looked at the Golden Ring Purple Snake, he found something different.

"This"

His gaze flicked back and forth on the Golden Ring Purple Snake and Xiao Huan.

"Yes. 'Soul Vision' can distinguish the strength of spirit beasts to a certain extent." Grandma Gu gave an affirmative answer.

No wonder that when Ran Jianyu fought with the black-robed man, the other party immediately revealed the strength of the ferocious rock wolf.

Didn't you say that there is this function?
But Li Changan soon felt something strange.

He rubbed his eyes and subconsciously pressed his temples again.

Only then did I notice that my 'soul' was being consumed rapidly.

So fast? !

"Don't use it for too long, especially to check the strength of the spirit beast, it will speed up the consumption of the 'soul'."

Li Changan hastily turned off "Soul Vision".

"Okay, I'm going to start the operation, you help me look at it."

What are you looking at?
Is it a corpse?
Before I could ask the question, Grandma Gu, who had all the things in order, had already started to operate.

With a serious expression, she held a brush stained with an unknown red liquid, and drew a ritual pattern on the corpse that Li Changan could not understand.

He whispered to himself in a low voice:
"Blood containing 'spirituality', black orchid juice brings a calming effect, and ancient river grass powder increases 'soul' fluctuations."

Looking at it, Li Changan suddenly thought of what he read in the book yesterday.

Before the birth of ancient human languages, they evolved from a well-established writing system.

And that kind of writing, as well as the newly evolved ancient writing itself has a certain ability to graft 'spirituality'.

Could the ritual pattern drawn by the ancient mother-in-law be a kind of ancient characters?

He didn't get much time to think.

After the quick drawing was completed, Granny Gu suddenly said, "Golden Ring, summon the soul!"

"Hiss—"

While the snake letter was hesitating, the "spirituality" belonging to the Golden Ring Purple Snake began to pry the remaining "soul" of the corpse in turn.

next second.

sizzle-

The incandescent lamp hanging on the roof of the corpse room suddenly began to flicker, and the flickering light brought a "sizzling" electric sound.

"Meow meow?" (It's really haunted!)

Seeing this scene, Xiao Huan quickly buried his head in Li Chang'an's arms.

"Squeak?"

Feeling the movement outside, Xiao Douding also got up from Li Changan's pocket at this time.

After seeing the scene of the morgue at this moment.

Roll your eyes.

Just "slept" again.

Even Li Changan felt the temperature in the morgue plummet.

He had to turn on "Soul Vision" again.

I saw the "soul" remaining on the corpse dissipate at a faster speed.

boom! ! !
The next moment, the corpse suddenly sat up, opened its eyes, and opened its mouth wide, looking extremely hideous.

"Xiao Huan, get ready." Li Changan hurriedly said with a serious expression at this moment.

"Meow!"

Although he acted very scared, it was actually okay, even Xiao Douding was really timid.

But this change came and went quickly.

boom--

After sitting upright for a moment, he lay down stiffly.

"Mother-in-law!"

Li Changan quickly supported her.

"I'm fine." Grandma Gu waved her hands weakly, but only looked at the Golden Ring Purple Snake.

"His-"

The golden-ringed purple snake vomits snake letters, and communicates the information it has obtained through the "spiritual balance" between it and the ancient mother-in-law.

Granny Gu came to the desk again with Li Changan's support.

I picked up the pen and wrote something with a "rustling".

"The 'soul' has dissipated too much, and it seems that when the curse was issued, the other party had already made preparations. I only confirmed the subsequent changes and effects. With this list, if the few who entered the hospital If there is a change in the security guards, follow the above method to eliminate the troubles for them, if not, don’t worry about it.”

"it is good."

Li Changan, who took the paper, agreed.

"I'm going to take a rest."

After finishing speaking, he broke free from Li Changan's support and left the morgue.

Looking at the trembling figure of Grandma Gu.

Li Changan had to admit it.

This time back to the short one night at the quiet meeting.

Let him have a new understanding of spirit beasts and spirit masters.

I have a deeper understanding of the treacherous and changeable abilities of spirit beasts.

Looking down at the list on the piece of paper, he said to himself:
"It is still necessary to speed up the progress of learning."

Little phantoms they need to grow.

He, the spirit master, also needs to grow up as soon as possible.
