Shen Longxuan was no exception, he grabbed the jade slip and immediately understood the cultivation method of Soul Arts.This should be a simplified version of the Great Soul-Multiplying Arts, or a small part of it.
This process would be very painful, but after going through the first stage of the pain of the ten thousand swords piercing the soul, this kind of pain was nothing. The next stage was the essence of the Soul Arts.
After that, it would split into four, and after that, it would grow into another four, and after that, it would grow into another four, and after that, it would split into four parts … He kept repeating this action, of course, the stronger the soul force, the faster the movement would be.
On the fifth day, Jian Yu and Hua Wu began to try to control the puppets. After they had completely mastered one puppet each, they sat down and began to cultivate the soul fragments again.
After five days, every person already had three to five puppets around them, but only Shen Longxuan remained motionless, as if he had forgotten the rules.
"Little girl, it"s been ten days and he"s not even moving, could it be that he hasn"t condensed a single soul yet? That would be unfavorable for us. According to my calculations, the ultimate goal of this test should be to control the puppets in battle.
Look, you have four on our side. He has three on his side, and I have five too. Looking at the other side, there are two or five, one or three, and one or four.
And it"s only been ten days. In another twenty days, we"ll be left far more than usual. Xiong Zhan counted with his fingers for a long time, how could it be considered that his side had lost?
"That won"t happen. Lord"s soul power is the strongest out of everyone here. We just need to do our own thing!" Yue Lan thought for a while and said.
Xiong Zhan saw that he could not make Yue Lan move and went to Master Turtle"s side to talk, but Master Turtle was even more confident than Yue Lan. Xiong Zhan sat back to his original spot angrily.
"Xiong Zhan, you"ve eaten the bitter fruit right? You are reaping what you sowed. Let me tell you, this time you will lose for sure. Hahaha …" Hua Wu finally found a place to vent his anger and laughed as he spoke.
Xiong Zhan furiously glared at Hua Wu and continued to cultivate his soul fragments.
Because Hua Wu and Jian Yu"s groups were becoming more and more proficient, the two of them had already controlled ten puppets each, and the remaining two had also controlled eight each.
Shen Longxuan had not moved for the past ten days, which made Xiong Zhan extremely anxious. He had also controlled ten puppets, nine of them were Yue Lan, and the rest eight were Lord Turtle.
Not only that, if Shen Longxuan was eliminated this time, then he would have to fight against the two of them alone. The outcome would be very hard to predict, and Shen Longxuan had offended the two of them so badly.
He looked at Shen Longxuan with disappointment, "What are you trying to do? This time, I really got screwed because of you! "
However, there was nothing he could do. He could only try his best to condense his soul fragments, hoping that he would be able to do his best at the last moment.
Yue Lan and Master Turtle didn"t understand what Shen Longxuan was doing either. It wasn"t until nine days later when even the two of them lost confidence that Shen Longxuan might have fallen asleep.
"Hahaha …" Xiong Zhan, this time, what else do you have to say for yourself. Today is the last day and that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d will be eliminated. If there is a test, you guys are not his match. Hahaha … "
At this moment, Hua Wu"s mood finally became comfortable. The anger that had been stored in his heart for a month could finally explode.
He commanded the eighteen puppets behind him. "All of you are doomed. There"s no need for you to partic.i.p.ate in the upcoming trials. Hahaha …"
"Needless to say, I suspect that the trash is asleep and hasn"t moved for an entire month. With this kind of pig-like teammate, what can you do to us, Xiong Zhan?"
"You … "You guys …" Xiong Zhan"s face turned red and he was unable to say a single word.
Just at this moment, Shadow of Soul"s figure suddenly appeared in the hall. Unknowingly, his soul was a little weak.
"It seems like you have all qualified … "Huh?" Halfway through his words, he saw Shen Longxuan and immediately let out a surprised doubt.
"Grand Elder, that fellow has given up. He hasn"t moved an inch in the past month!" Hua Wu said with a grin.
The Shadow of Soul Great Clan Elder shook his head, and continued: "Today is the last day of the time limit. When I come, I want to tell you all, tomorrow will be the compet.i.tion, to test your strength against the Soul Arts.
Of course, those who do not have control over the ten puppets are not qualified to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion.
A day"s time quickly pa.s.sed. Under Hua Wu and the others" difficult circ.u.mstances, Xiong Zhan almost collapsed, but Shen Longxuan still did not move an inch.
The next day, the Shadow of Soul Great Clan Elder appeared as scheduled. Seeing that Shen Longxuan was still sculpting, he actually revealed a disappointed expression.
"Alright, wake him up! The compet.i.tion will begin today. It looks like you"ve both qualified. The rules of the compet.i.tion are simple, it"s a battle between puppets with control. You two teams can only stay for one squad! "
The Shadow of Soul Great Elder"s words were like a ladle of cold water poured over Xiong Zhan"s body. Seeing the arrogant gazes of Hua Wu and the others, he had the urge to go berserk.
"Sigh!" You chose it yourself, you deserved it! " Xiong Zhan sighed as if he had resigned himself to his fate.
It was at this time that Shen Longxuan woke Shen Longxuan up. After he woke up, he directly asked: "A month"s time has already pa.s.sed?"
Puff …
"Hahaha …" This person is truly hilarious. Even though he did not achieve anything, he still pretends that he still wants to continue. Truly laughable! "
"Hurry up and get out of here, don"t waste our compet.i.tion"s inheritance!"
"That"s right, kid. Your good luck is over and your dream is over. I"m suddenly curious, what did you dream about?"
Facing his opponent"s bombardment, Shen Longxuan frowned, he had not been idling for the past month. He had already mastered the Soul Arts, but he found it to be mysterious, so he was immersed in it.
In this month, he used the split soul technique in the Soul Arts, he was not sure how many split souls he had, since his soul force had increased by one fold.
Celestial Soul Clan"s Soul Arts truly lived up to its name. This should be the Arcane Arts of a powerful soul, yet it was being used as a clone by them.
However, in order to complete the trial, Shen Longxuan still held back. He could easily divide out a varying amount of soul threads, and with each soul thread, he could easily control one or even several puppets.
Therefore, facing the opponent"s slander and Xiong Zhan"s doubt, he opened his mouth and said: "Who said I was sleeping? How come I don"t have the qualifications to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion?"
"Stop quibbling here, the facts are right in front of you. You have controlled several puppets, yet you don"t have a single one. The minimum standard for partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion is 10. What else do you have to say? Hurry up and f * ck off!"
"Don"t tell me you can control ten puppets on the spot?" If you can do it, I"ll call you Ancestor! "
Hua Wu and Jian Yu were still ridiculing each other, the Shadow of Soul Great Elder also shook his head, "Little fellow, I might have seen wrongly, you haven"t moved an inch in the past month, and I"ve cultivated for so many years to reach the Soul Gathering Realm.
If you want to control ten at once, you"ll have to cultivate to a very high realm. With the level of Soul Transformation spirit threads, forget about ten of them, even a hundred wouldn"t be a problem.
"But you …" The Shadow of Soul Great Clan Elder stopped speaking abruptly as he stared at Shen Longxuan in shock.
