Chapter 384 - Inside the Pagoda (1/2)

“It’s suggested that one cultivates the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell.”

“The Magic Awl Forbidden Spell and the Essence Soul Star are the most compatible. They are extremely effective against enemies.”

“With the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell, one can abandon Starlight. It’s suggested to spend more time on the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell.”

Seniors that had cultivated the Essence Soul Star formulation gave advice to their juniors.

Half of the book’s content described the cultivation of one’s Essence Soul Star, while the other half described the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell. Everyone held it in high esteem. They deemed it the strongest mystic technique in the Heart Sea Palace, second only to the Essence Soul Star.

“Oh? They recommend it that much?” Meng Chuan looked at the Guardian. “Where’s the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell?”

“Here.” The Guardian skillfully took out a book and handed it to Meng Chuan.

The River of s.p.a.cetime’s laws didn’t restrict the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell.

It’s a forbidden spell that cultivates an Essence Soul weapon. Meng Chuan flipped through the book. There were lots of words and diagrams in the book, and information surged into his mind. The Essence Soul Star gave different results when cultivated by different people. As for the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell, its cultivation method was very clear. All of them followed one particular direction in cultivation. However, the higher one’s cultivation realm was, the stronger the outcome.

This forbidden spell was to cultivate an Essence Soul weapon-Magic Awl! It was called a forbidden spell because one needed to consume some of their Essence Soul foundation to cultivate it. Using ten percent of one’s Essence Soul foundation for cultivation didn’t have much of an impact.

The negative effects showed when more than ten percent of one’s Essence Soul foundation was used. The defensive properties of one’s Essence Soul Star began to decline, and the speed at which one’s Essence Soul improved would constantly decrease.

When more than 30% of one’s Essence Soul foundation was used, it resulted in severe consequences such as the loss of memories and the drop in perceptivity. However, this forbidden spell was extremely powerful! After cultivating the Magic Awl with just ten percent of one’s Essence Soul foundation, it was comparable to a beam of Starlight. A fifth-level Essence Soul could even injure a sixth-level Essence Soul with it, reducing the strength of the sixth-level Essence Soul. Of course, the attack easily backfired. If the Magic Awl failed to pierce through an enemy’s Essence Soul, it would be damaged to the point of destruction. However, it was extremely effective at piercing an enemy’s Essence Soul.

If one used 30% of their Essence Soul foundation to cultivate it, they would have a chance of killing a sixth-level Essence Soul despite having a fifth-level Essence Soul. An enemy with weaker willpower would have their minds go blank upon being attacked. They would be unable to resist at all. Sixth-level Essence Soul experts with stronger willpower would also suffer a huge loss in strength, barely able to unleash 20 to 30 percent of their strength. This was a high-level Essence Soul weapon! All the experts of the human Essence Soul lineage respected it.

Some even wanted to use 30% of their Essence Soul foundation to cultivate it. They combined the Essence Soul mystic technique with their head-on combat techniques; they were virtually invincible.

This all depended on one’s choices. The flaw of this forbidden spell was that cultivating a Magic Awl would place one’s Essence Soul foundation in a damaged state for prolonged periods. For example, using 30% of one’s Essence Soul foundation to cultivate the Magic Awl would force one’s Essence Soul to stay at 70% efficiency for a long period of time. The improvement of one’s Essence Soul would be very slow, and their defense would be much weaker.

It’s really a double-edged sword. It hurts the enemy and oneself. Furthermore, the refinement method of this Essence Soul weapon requires time to study it. At the very least, it’s no less difficult than the Essence Soul Star for anyone below the Tribulation realm.

Meng Chuan simply flipped through the Essence Soul mystic techniques.

Although there were other mystic techniques, he had to consider the time it took, the power it had, and other different angles. It took him a lot of time and effort to cultivate the Essence Soul Star. He just needed to cultivate the Magic Awl Forbidden Spell to make up for the formulation’s lacking lethality. Cultivating a weaker Essence Soul mystic technique was not worth the time. Rumble!

The Heart Sea Palace’s door closed as Meng Chuan and the Guardian walked out.

Battle G.o.d PaG.o.da. Meng Chuan’s gaze landed on the building on the right. It was an ancient nine-story paG.o.da.

The Guardian also looked at the paG.o.da. “The Eon Sea Sect only set two tests. You are ranked first in the Heart Sea Palace, so you naturally pa.s.sed that one. As for the Battle G.o.d PaG.o.da… it has nothing to do with your Essence Soul. It doesn’t even have anything to do with the divine armaments you possess. It tests your true combat strength and your technique realm.
