I Am Loaded with Passive Skills

Chapter 3674: Chapter 1788: Soul Reading

Returning Soul Tomb, isn’t it the very technique used by Cursed Yin half a year ago?

It was precisely this technique that erased the last chance for Lord Cang Sheng to survive.

But at that time, Cursed Yin worked with fellow Palace Masters to seize qualification to establish themselves on the Shengshen Continent.

Although the ultimate plan was uncovered and defeated by Lord Shou, it was for personal gain.

Why did Lord Shou use this technique again?

To resurrect himself?

He’s still alive!

The only possibility is...

"Resurrect Hua Changdeng?"

Among the tens of thousands of spectators from the Golden Apricot, everyone was familiar with the situation half a year ago, but now they couldn’t understand why Lord Shou used this technique.

Resurrecting an enemy, for what?

To whip the corpse?

"Woo woo—"

Soul Sound screeched, ten thousand ghosts wailed.𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

The Returning Soul Tomb’s dark clouds, once looming over the Southern Region of the Land of Sin, now absorbed the ghostly energy throughout the Ghost Buddha Realm, converging above the Holy Sword Land of the Central Region.

Black clouds press upon the realm.

Not just the spectators near the Central Yuan world.

People from various places outside the Central Ghost Buddha Realm today lifted their heads to see this eerie and bizarre phenomenon.

The phenomena in the Ghost Buddha Realm originated from Ghost Buddha.

The Ghost Buddha phenomena source from Hua Changdeng.

In the battle, Hua Changdeng’s consciousness incarnation was killed by Lord Shou with a single sword tide, yet the Fengdu Phenomenon spread across the Ghost Buddha Realm, indicating traces of Hua Changdeng’s power everywhere.

With the Returning Soul Tomb now activated, how could it not summon a remnant of his soul?

Before long, a ghostly blue soul shadow gathered in the distance, between the Gui Zhe Ruins and the stele connecting to the sky of the Central Yuan world.

The soul shadow twisted and struggled, finally materializing into a phantom, painful, and entangled form.

"Ghost Sword Immortal!"

The matchmaker’s Golden Apricot image quickly zoomed in, locking onto the figure from afar.

The face remained indistinct, but with a broken lamp in hand and a broken sword at the waist, it undeniably declared this person’s identity to be Hua Changdeng, who had fallen not long ago.

"Xu Xiaoshou..."

With the emergence of the shadow of the remnant soul, it paused for a long time, seemingly recalling the event of being slain previously.

Even as he murmured the name, his voice was still filled with pain, laden with torment.

The Power of Name from the sword tide unexpectedly gathered once more with the return of Hua Changdeng’s remnant soul, tormenting him again.

"Is it really whipping the corpse?"

"Lord Shou is merciless!"

"This is terrifying, just a slight provocation, was it necessary? Lord Shou, spare Ghost Sword Immortal, I can’t bear to watch..."

The spectators of the Golden Apricot became instantly frenzied.

The method couldn’t be called gentle, yet it could undoubtedly be said to be very much like Lord Shou!

Aside from him, perhaps no one else could conceive of whipping a corpse in such a manner, even if they wished, they wouldn’t have the capability.

However...

Was the death of Elder Yu such a blow to Lord Shou?

Was it necessary to summon the remnant soul and slay it once more to vent his anger?

"Hehe, Hua Changdeng, not seen for a moment, feels like three years, I’ve started to miss you a bit, don’t you miss me?"

Xu Xiaoshou gazed afar, his words sharp, and with a shake of his body, he revealed another self in front of everyone.

"Clone?"

Hua Changdeng’s remnant soul collected his thoughts, and his consciousness seemed to gradually awaken, perceiving the technique’s insight.

He remembered that Xu Xiaoshou had not achieved Demi-Saint State.

Yet the clone produced by this technique had nearly identical attributes to the original body in Body, Spirit, and Will.

Its form of existence even surpassed a demi-saint incarnation, likely a clone from the Cursed Yin Technique, right?

"Indeed, Cursed Yin has previous ties with you..."

Xu Xiaoshou heard the mutter and felt assured.

At this moment, the remnant soul summoned by the Returning Consciousness Tomb finally connected with Hua Changdeng’s true body possibly in the Yunshan Emperor realm.

Otherwise, the remnant soul might not have recalled what happened before his thought incarnation was slain.

The connection between Hua Changdeng’s remnant soul and his true body made things easier.

Xu Xiaoshou didn’t bother with unnecessary words, and turned to his side to address his second true body:

"Jin Ren, it’s up to you."

Jin Ren, with a deadpan expression, but accustomed to being treated inhumanly, immediately focused his gaze on Hua Changdeng’s remnant soul and lightly called:

"Soul Reading!"

...

It was once upon a time at the Yunlun Mountain Range that Xu Xiaoshou performed Soul Reading on a young girl from the Southern Region Black Heart Fruit Clan named Duo’er.

It was his first genuine Meeting a Saint.

Also the first time he understood what "Saints, cannot be gazed upon" meant.

The power of a demi-saint was so strong that even if explored within a soul memory, they could sense it, and subsequently, remotely lock onto the explorer.

At the time of the Yunlun Mountain Range, Xu Xiaoshou was terrified.

It was only by relying on the power within him of Demi-Saint Infernal, Bazhun’an, and others that he managed to repel Demi-Saint Zang Ren’s gaze and successfully avert the danger.

So are demi-saints.

And Holy Emperors, Ancestral Gods alike.

Whereas the current Xu Xiaoshou no longer feared such gazes and counter-gazes.

On the contrary, he had confidence and dared to utilize such Saint and above "counter-gazes" to complete certain tasks, like now.

"Soul Reading!"

As Jin Ren glanced over.

Under the tormenting Power of Name within Hua Changdeng, his remnant soul’s strength was even weaker.

Caught off guard, mere eye contact under Guidance with Jin Ren caused his body to tremble fiercely.

"It has entered!"

Xu Xiaoshou and Jin Ren shared perspectives.

In an instant, he felt the world spinning, his consciousness drifted into emptiness, thereafter arriving at a magnificent Immortal Realm.

He stood within a Purple Bamboo Forest, surrounded by mist and clouds, charged with spiritual energy.

Ahead on the open ground, sword marks crisscrossed, some old, some new, evidently left by years of practicing Ancient Sword Technique.

Not only did "he" stand within the Purple Bamboo Forest, nearby stood a girl with a high ponytail.

The young girl was merely a teenager yet dignified and graceful, her brows exuded boldness, her eyes exceptionally spirited, dressed in an cherry pink silk skirt, holding a slender female sword, a grade three spiritual sword.
