Chapter 6 The Art of Monsters
the next day.

Dragon Palace University, lecturer dormitory.

Jiang Ge opened his eyes, stretched himself, and sat up on the bed.

There is no disturbance from evil shadows and sprites.

He slept very comfortably this time, and his condition was even better than ever.

"The strength of the soul seems to have increased a lot." Jiang Ge felt a subtle difference.

It was as if his soul and spirituality that had been sucked away by the sprites had not only been fully replenished, but had also been greatly improved.

The world in my eyes has also changed.

Jiang Ge looked at his room.

The dewdrops on the window sill, the dust floating in the air, the cobwebs in the corners..., some details that he didn't notice before, all came into his eyes.

His observation of the world is more detailed and thorough.

"Sure enough, the deeper the knowledge of interpretation, the closer to the reality of the world, the greater the improvement of the soul?" Jiang Ge said to himself.

As a time traveler, with a golden finger like a research slot, Jiang Ge has long understood the concept of soul.

He believes that knowledge is the nourishment for the growth of the soul.

As for him who has a research slot, as long as he reads books and acquires enough knowledge, his soul can grow rapidly.

If the soul is strong, the interpretation ability of the research slot will also be improved. If the interpretation ability is strong, it can in turn interpret more books and acquire knowledge to increase the strength of the soul.

This is also the reason why he has been tirelessly looking for books and using the research slot to interpret them.

The title of so-called polymath is incidental.

However, until now, the knowledge of mortals has improved him very little.

If the number of ordinary books is sufficient, the cumulative improvement is also considerable.

It's a pity that he is very poor, and books in this world are extremely expensive.

"In contrast, the 'secret knowledge' from the fantasy world can improve the soul far more than mortal knowledge..."

Jiang Ge remembered that when he received the secret biography "The Secret of the Mirror Grinding Man", his soul had at least half grown.

And in the process of acquiring 'secret knowledge', the graceful feeling as if the soul is being completed makes people unable to help being intoxicated.

"Is this the allure of the secret?"

Jiang Ge raised his head slightly, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

When he was sleeping last night, the research tank had already interpreted the "monster in the mirror".

He got a lot of valuable knowledge.

Because of this, his soul not only recovered, but also improved a lot.

Otherwise, do you think his soul has improved so much because he ate that evil shadow?
How is it possible, he is not a devil.

"I'm just gifted in interpreting knowledge and truth in the world." Jiang Ge said modestly.

"Next, let me see what kind of surprises I have given after interpreting the evil shadow sprites..."

"Oh? The so-called monsters are actually transformed from mortal souls through rituals."

A total of two pieces of information were deciphered from the evil shadow sprites in the research slot.

One is the intangible art "Miyage no Jutsu", and the other is the memory of evil shadows.

"The Art of Royal Shadow:"

"In legends, shadows are reflections of mortal souls illuminated by sunlight.

Scholars have different opinions on whether dead things have souls, but as far as living things are concerned, shadows are indeed related to souls...

The art of royal shadow is an invisible art of manipulating shadows with the help of the "secret knowledge" from the fantasy world.

Contains two branches, 'Shadow Bind' and 'Spirit'. "

"The 'Shadow Binding' branch uses the 'Shadow Binding Ritual' to transform one's own shadow and achieve various incredible effects."

"The branch of 'Spirits' is based on the 'Ceremony of sprites', using the souls of the living as materials to refine evil shadows and sprites, and then control the evil shadows."

Jiang Ge leaned on the back of the chair, tapped the armrest of the chair with his fingers, and said with interest.

"So, the evil shadow that entangles me is essentially a living soul that has undergone a ritual transformation. This is really evil..."

"Before he was refined into a sprite, his identity was an apprentice who accidentally came into contact with the 'secret knowledge' and embarked on the path of pursuing the 'secret'."

Jiang Ge narrowed his eyes slightly.

Because of being transformed into a sprite by the ritual, most of the apprentice's memory was incomplete.

But in this apprentice's memory, there was one thing that was particularly impressive.

It was a dragon worship scripture.

The style is exactly the same as the one he got before...

"After the evil shadow sprites are refined, they are like newborn babies who need to devour their souls to grow.

And when a sprite completely devours a person's soul, it can occupy a person's body, obtain all of it, and replace it. "

"It would be even better if the devoured souls were those with special aptitudes, not only would they be able to grow sprites more.

Just let the sprites leave a thin layer of soul shell when they hollow out their souls.

With this soul shell as the core, it can be refined into a new evil shadow sprite with rituals. "

"It can be said to kill two birds with one stone..." Jiang Ge sighed softly.

"This also confirms my guess. The secret knowledge in the Dragon Worship tome is indeed a bait, which is used to screen targets."

"And I'm one of the unlucky ones who were chosen..."

"That old lady Guo really has a problem." Jiang Ge's eyes showed a dangerous light.

"The sprites were eliminated by me, but there is still a controller behind it...

So, my crisis is far from over. "

"Fortunately, in that monster's memory, the knowledge I got from the Dragon Worship scriptures is actually the manifestation of its "secret".

I knew this "secret" and reached a certain connection with it.

Only in this way can it accurately locate my position, and its gaze can have such a strong suppressing effect on me, making my body stiff and unable to move...

That is to say, even if I encounter evil shadow sprites again, I won't be caught on the spot, and I can escape, which is really gratifying..."

Jiang Ge paused lightly.

"But now that the evil shadow sprites have been dealt with by me, the mark is invalid...

Even if the controller behind the evil shadow sprites wants to find me again, it will take time. "

Jiang Ge stood up and walked towards the desk while talking to himself.

"It is never advisable to sit still, or expect the mercy of the enemy."

"That is to say, during this period of time, I must obtain the ability to protect myself, and even go further..."

Walking to the desk, Jiang Ge took out the pen and paper, picked up the pen and wrote two words on the paper, "The Art of the Royal Shadow" and "The Ceremony of the Mirror".

"Now the two invisible techniques in my hands can give me the power to fight against the manipulators behind the sprites."

"In the technique of Royal Shadow, the sprite branch, the ritual is complicated and time-consuming, and it also needs to use the soul of a living person, so it is not suitable for use...

But I can learn how to control my own shadow in the "Shadow Binding" branch. "

"Shadow is related to the sun, and "moon" is the shadow of the sun, so the secret of the moon should be able to use this invisible technique..."
