Chapter 183 - Trial of the Soul Illusion

Unable to Cultivate, I Can Only Raise Soul Pets

Chapter 183: Trial of the Soul Illusion

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Student Wang, we’ve already arranged the Soul Illusion Trial. It will be in about seven days.”

The staff member of Dino Technology said, “Prepare yourself first. The strength of the soul illusion this time isn’t high. It’s only at the initial stage. If you can pass the trial, it will greatly increase your and your soul pets’ mental strength. At the same time, there are bad things inside…”

“The soul illusion is an illusion space. You and your soul pets better be prepared.”

The staff member’s news made Wang Che feel like he had been through a long drought and was in a good mood.

‘Wang Che had already resolved the spatial power food that the little caterpillar needed.

However, mental strength was relatively troublesome. If there were too many staple foods, it was not beneficial for the little caterpillar to absorb them.

It was rather difficult to increase the little caterpillar’s mental strength.

Only when it was in the First Stage True Dragon Form and its strength increased greatly could it wear the Flower Feather Worm Crown to increase its mental strength to a certain extent.

With its current cultivation, it was not allowed to wear the Flower Feather Worm Crown in the form of a small caterpillar.

Therefore, to increase the little caterpillar’s mental strength when it was not a mental-type soul pet, the difficulty was relatively high. Not only was the effect of the various food supplements used to increase mental strength weak, but they were also very expensive.

Wang Che did not choose to buy it.

Now that there was this soul illusion, the chance was here!

This soul illusion sounded mysterious, but even if they had arranged it, it would not be too dangerous.

“Alright.” Wang Che nodded.

Three days was enough for Wang Che to prepare.

Wang Che first carefully investigated what the soul illusion was.

To do this, he naturally had to approach the ninth department of the Soul Earth Ruins Research Department.

“Soul illusion? That’s a good place. You might have heard of it.”

Zhou Xing sent a communication and an email with the origin and history of the soul illusion.

“That was a mental illusion left behind by a creature called Soul Demon back then. Currently, there are very few true soul illusions in our war zone. Moreover, some of the more fatal dangers have been removed from the soul illusions collected by the war zone. However, they are also very dangerous. It

should be okay for you to be careful.”

“In this kind of illusory space, there are usually rather troublesome trials. Successful trials will increase the mental strength of soul pets and Contract Soul Masters. If they don’t make it through, with the strength of the initial stage illusions, they will probably be weakened for a few weeks.”

“There are many rare treasures that contain mental strength inside. It would be best if you can obtain them.”

“The Soul Earth is different from the soul illusion. The trial qualification for the soul illusion is fixed. Typically, it will only be distributed to the outstanding students of the various universities, the investigators of large corporations, the professional Contract Soul Masters from the various continents who

go to the Dao Arena, the top Contract Soul Master clubs, and some relatively special families, etc.”

“The Aviation Cup is the only competition that allows you students to come into contact with it.”

“Work hard!”

Wang Che glanced at the detailed information Zhou Xing had sent.

“Soul Demons… are quite similar to Heavenly Devils.” Wang Che pondered.

Now that this creature had been completely defeated, the Federation naturally did not have it.

“What a pity. If there were more, I could still study them…” Wang Che looked regretful, “Heavenly Devils are good things…”

Otherworldly Heavenly Devils were something other cultivators would avoid.

To Wang Che, they were very useful.

They could be used for cultivation.

“The Soul Illusion Trial has no restrictions on soul pets…”

On the training ground, Wang Che said seriously to the green caterpillar and the Magnetic Sword, “Therefore, both of you are participating this time. Magnetic Sword, your mental strength must also increase. This will help you achieve control over your mechanical energy.”

“You have to learn the move you created, the Super Lightning Magnetic Cannon. There’s also Mechanical Charging. With your aptitude, you should be able to learn this soul skill in a day. Mechanical Charging is something I specially prepared for you.”

“After using Mechanical Charging, not only can it increase your control over mechanical energy, but it can also increase the power of that move.”

“If you succeed in this trial, your strength will increase by a level. At that time, I’ll open the ancient soul beast encyclopedia and let you learn a few powerful moves.”

As for the soul skill created by the Magnetic Sword, Wang Che encouraged it very much.

However, due to the Magnetic Sword being too weak, it had only reached a soul power cultivation of 400 years.

It was still very difficult to use this move.

In order to make it better and learn better, he even specially chose the move Mechanical Charging for the Magnetic Sword.

“Ssss!”

The red light on the Magnetic Sword surged, indicating that it would work hard!

“As for the green caterpillar

Wang Che looked at the green caterpillar.

Green caterpillar: (= + w

‘Tell me what you want!”

“After obtaining the Dream Realm Space, even the proficiency of fire attribute soul skills has increased very quickly. Your Raging Flame Strike’s proficiency has already reached A-grade and your Energy Bomb has also reached B+. You can try to cultivate a dual attribute soul skill now.”

‘Wang Che had encountered dual attribute soul skills a few times in the Aviation Cup.

The one that left the deepest impression was Cui Ao’s Flame Storm.

It was a super powerful dual attribute soul skill formed by Flame Vortex and Gale.

It was extremely powerful.

If not for Wang Che’s rich combat experience, he would not have been able to tell at a glance that the opponent was about to unleash a powerful move and would not have interrupted it.

Once the opponent released this move, the green caterpillar might be defeated in one move.

If it wanted to learn a dual attribute soul skill, it had to learn the prerequisite moves.

For example, Flame Storm required it to learn Flame Vortex and Gale.

This was a very harsh requirement for the soul pet.

‘The green caterpillar now had the power to learn dual attribute soul skills.

Of course, Wang Che could develop dual attribute soul skills himself, but the difficulty was extremely high!

“Insect Web+ Spiral Flame Ball = ? Think about it yourself. What soul skill can it form?” Wang Che asked.

In fact, the previous combination of Fireball and Rumbling Tail Strike was similar to a dual attribute soul skill.

However, Fireball was not a soul skill. Rumbling Tail Strike was a conventional soul skill.

Therefore, there was actually a huge difference between the two.

However, its power was definitely not inferior to a dual attribute soul skill.

‘The green caterpillar tilted its head in confusion.

‘What can I think of?”

“Hide the Insect Web in the rapidly spinning fireball. This way, after the explosion, the Insect Web inside will spread out and can trap the enemy directly.”

Wang Che explained, “The enemy can’t guard against it.”

The green caterpillar’s eyes lit up as it fell into deep thought… It continued to think.

Then, with a thud, it fell to the ground.

“Huff…”

‘The green caterpillar fell asleep and entered the Dream Realm Space.

“It looks like it has an idea.”

‘Wang Che nodded. Once it had an idea, the little caterpillar would enter the dream.

Of course, Wang Che did not ask it to learn it immediately.

This was unrealistic.

But if the little caterpillar had an idea, it could turn it into action in the dream.

After familiarizing itself with the process, it should be able to try this move.

It was much smoother than normal training.

After all, it was in the dream realm.

“It’s just that with the current strength and size of the dream realm, it can’t even use a ranged soul skill like the Energy Bomb. Moreover, it can only train one soul skill in it every day. If it practices a few more times, the little caterpillar’s mind won’t be able to take it.”

After learning the Dream Realm Space, the little caterpillar could only practice soul skills like Insect Web and Insect Voice inside.

Due to the small size of the dream realm, the effects of training Raging Flame Strike were not obvious.

“In a month or two, the little caterpillar should be able to learn a space-type soul skill.”

Spatial soul skills, especially the Sky God Dragon’s inherited soul skills, were all very powerful.

With the dream realm, the little caterpillar could also make up for its lack of comprehension.

“Eh… wait, a dual attribute soul skill shouldn’t be limited to the same soul pet, right?”

‘Wang Che suddenly thought of this.

He remembered that there were still double battles in soul pet competitions.

Moreover, as long as it wasn’t a competition, it was normal for two soul pets to appear at the same time, especially in wilderness exploration.

“Can I combine the Magnetic Sword’s soul skill and the green caterpillar’s soul skill?”

“With Mechanical Charging…”

‘Thinking of this, Wang Che immediately began to train the Magnetic Sword to use Mechanical Charging.

Because it was a soul skill secret carving he had bought, after the Magnetic Sword absorbed the gene capsule, it quickly learned this move.

Amechanical soul pet’s basic hundred year soul skill could easily be learned by a mechanical soul pet.

There was no difficulty at all. This was even easier for the Magnetic Sword.

“Now, use Mechanical Charging.”

‘The Magnetic Sword was really a good child.

It learned this move immediately.

The light on the Magnetic Sword suddenly increased from above.

If there was an energy grid, one could see that the mechanical energy in the Magnetic Sword would constantly light up from the top to the bottom of the sword.

However, without the energy grid, the light from the Magnetic Sword stopped when it reached one-fifth of the blade.

After charging, the power of the mechanical soul skill would be increased to a certain extent.

‘When the charged light could contain the entire sword, it meant that the proficiency was maxed.

At this moment, the power of the mechanical soul skill would increase by two levels. The extent of the increase was very powerful!

“Try casting the Heavenly Lightning Slash.”

The Heavenly Lightning Slash consumed the mechanical energy in the Magnetic Sword. Of course, the precondition was that there was the red lightning formed by the Heavenly Lightning Sword Force.

Otherwise, when this move was used, it would only be an ordinary slash.

‘The Magnetic Sword slashed down and emitted a sword beam that was seven meters long! Its power and range had increased!

Previously at the Aviation Cup, the sword light emitted by the Heavenly Lightning Slash was only two to three meters.

After seven days of training and the past few days of cultivation, the proficiency of the Heavenly Lightning Slash had increased. Normally, it was close to five meters. Now, the sword light had increased to seven meters.

It could be seen that the change brought by mechanical charging was very obvious.

No wonder many mechanical soul pets had to learn this move.

“When the Heavenly Lightning Slash’s proficiency is full, you can learn the Gale Lightning Slash.”

‘Wang Che nodded slightly, “With your talent, your proficiency in Mechanical Charging will also increase very quickly.”

Soul skills required continuous advancement..
