Creating Demonic Cultivation Techniques against Non-human Races-Chapter 143: Soul Search Solo Kill of Eighth Grade Ancient Ape, Double Kill of Eighth Grade Giant Python, Civilization Value Surges by 45,000
"I couldn’t find them no matter how hard I looked before! Who would’ve thought they’d come knocking on my door now? I wonder where all these High Tier Exotic Beasts have been hiding!"
"Just in time, I can take this opportunity to use the ’Soul-Searching and Soul-Seizing Hand’ to gather information about the situation on the side of the Ten Thousand Races of Exotic Beasts."
"The intelligence of High Tier Exotic Beasts is already refined enough; I should be able to find a lot of useful information."
As he talked to himself, two Eighth Grade Exotic Beasts appeared in front of him.
After three breaths, the Eighth Grade Giant Python and Eighth Grade Ancient Ape looked around confusedly.
Then, with a wave of Spiritual Power, the two beasts started chatting with each other.
"Hiss hiss hiss... It’s gone? The aura’s gone! What do we do? If we can’t find it, the king will surely punish us. You stupid monkey, do you have any leads?"
"Oh... you little reptile, are you asking for a beating again? If you keep calling me that, I’m from the Ape Race, not the Monkey Race, watch out or I’ll beat you up!"
"Hiss hiss hiss... There’s a little monkey here, let’s ask him!"
"Scram! That’s not a monkey, it’s one of those who call themselves part of the Human Race."
"Does it matter? After asking, we can eat it! Such blood food tastes the best, and it’s beneficial for cultivation, though it’s a pity they’re too weak. If I weren’t afraid of others snatching it, I’d want to raise it a bit before eating."
"Hmph! Why should I give it to you? Since I saw it, it’s mine. If anyone eats it, it should be me!"
"..."
Like some childish exchange between kids, they didn’t regard the little figure in front of them at all, even fighting over who would eat it.
However, Lin Ping’an, whose Spiritual Power exceeded twenty thousand hertz, had already perceived all of this clearly.
"Hmph! Beasts are just beasts! Want to eat me? Do you deserve it?"
In the next instant, his figure flashed, appearing in the sky, and with a casual kick, he split the Eighth Grade Giant Python in half.
With a stretched hand, an A-level Alloy Blade appeared, infused with the Power of Heaven and Earth, he flung it.
In an instant, the python’s head was pinned to the ground, immobilizing it.
This move didn’t kill it on the spot, but it was close enough!
The Power of Heaven and Earth enveloping the Alloy Blade continuously wore down the Eighth Grade Giant Python’s Spiritual Power and soul.
Even if it couldn’t die immediately, it wouldn’t last much longer.
The abrupt transformation in the blink of an eye left the nearby Eighth Grade Ancient Ape dumbfounded.
The blood food lamb instantly transformed into a terrifying presence, much like a scam with a major twist, leaving it utterly confused after never experiencing deceptive strategies before.
At this moment, perhaps only the Middle-Low Tier Exotic Beasts near various Guardian Cities, who had been deceived before, would empathize with this Eighth Grade Ancient Ape.
It was downright bullying, completely against the usual playbook!
After one breath.
"Roar..."
The Ancient Ape beat its chest and roared, grabbing its massive stick it carried, its eyes red, preparing to fight to the death.
At the same time, it activated its Talent Ability, unleashing its maximum combat power.
Normally, when Exotic Beasts face this situation, they generally have two choices: one is to turn and flee, staying far away.
And the other is to fight to the death, seeking life in death.
Obviously, at this moment, this Eighth Grade Ancient Ape chose the latter.
However, the imagination was beautiful, but reality was harsh; even though it promptly activated its Talent Ability, greatly increasing its combat power, it was still insufficient against the now formidable Lin Ping’an.
After one breath, a palm condensed from vast Qi Blood instantly smacked it to the ground; immediately followed by a punch that knocked it out cold.
Combat power far surpassing the normal Ninth Grade domain was just so dominant and beyond standard.
If Lin Ping’an didn’t intend to use the ’Soul-Searching and Soul-Seizing Hand’ to obtain intelligence, the two Eighth Grade Exotic Beasts combined wouldn’t even match up to his single blade strike.
His figure flashed, appearing next to the massive head, with both hands contacting it as Spiritual Power instantly surged into its head.
In the ensuing time, the Eighth Grade Ancient Ape experienced the agony of its soul being torn and shredded.
Moreover, its memories also presented themselves to Lin Ping’an at this moment.
This Eighth Grade Ancient Ape had lived for a full 800-plus years, with numerous useless junk memories occupying over seventy percent.
For a while, it did waste quite a bit of Lin Ping’an’s effort.
Five minutes... ten minutes... twenty minutes later.
After thoroughly exploring its memories, a twenty-plus meter tall, mentally deranged, near imbecile Giant Ape was born.
Truth be told, normally, an Eighth Grade being subjected to a soul-search would experience extreme pain, but not become as completely stupid as a Middle-Low Tier would.
After all, at Seventh Grade and above, they can cultivate Spiritual Power, providing some resistance.
But these Exotic Beasts are different; their intelligence develops with difficulty, even once successfully advancing to Eighth Grade Beast General Level, their wisdom remains very limited.
In such circumstances, after a soul-search, if they don’t become fools, they still suffer severe mental damage, unable to regain previous intelligence.
At this moment, Lin Ping’an stood atop the Ancient Ape’s head, continually reading through any useful information, murmuring softly.
"Southern Eight Domains? Upon breaking through to High Grade, they are taken away! The Ten Thousand Races battle for supremacy! Small tribe, medium tribe, large tribe... Secret Realm cultivation... so many things... how interesting!"
"However, without a negative screen ensuring there are no worries, using the ’Soul-Searching and Soul-Seizing Hand’ on Exotic Beasts could easily lead to getting lost in those vast useless memories and consequently be negatively affected."
"Right, there’s still an Eighth Grade little reptile; while it’s not dead yet, let’s have it contribute its memories too! Don’t waste it!"
Saying this, he appeared beside the python’s head once again.
At that very moment, the previously dying Giant Python Exotic Beast suddenly had a last surge of energy, enduring intense pain, struggling to open its mouth wide, forcefully spitting out foul toxic liquid.
In response, Lin Ping’an dodged the desperate strike with a flash.
The toxins splashed onto the ground, making a "shhhh... shhhh..." sound as it instantly corroded a large hole.
Centered there, countless flowers, grass, and trees withered and lost their vitality.
The next moment, this Eighth Grade Giant Python also felt the pain digging into its soul.
"Hiss hiss hiss... ah ah ah..."
Equally spanning hundreds of years, its memories unfolded before Lin Ping’an.
Under soul-searching, all secrets were no longer existent.
Five minutes... ten minutes... twenty minutes passed...
After roughly the same time, the soul-search completed, and the Giant Python truly entered the dying stage.
Even if Lin Ping’an didn’t finish it off, it was about to pass away anyway.
Seeing this, a single punch ended it.
His Spiritual Power surged, wiping out every last mark of the python’s Spiritual Power.
In such circumstances, he couldn’t let it die on its own, or it’d be wasted.
This was an Eighth Grade Exotic Beast; the Civilization Value gained from slaying it would surely be substantial.
Simultaneously, a message popped up on his panel.
[Ding~]
[Slain Eighth Grade High Rank Exotic Beast, Civilization Value of 21,364 obtained.]
In an instant, the total value skyrocketed by over twenty thousand points.
Lin Ping’an turned, striking the dumbfounded Eighth Grade Giant Ape, swiftly slaying it on the spot as well.
"Boom~"
With one punch, the ground shook where it landed.
Then, his Spiritual Power gradually wiped out all its marks.
As the last mark disappeared, the system prompt timely appeared.
[Ding~]
[Slain Eighth Grade Peak Exotic Beast, Civilization Value of 23,697 obtained.]
Slightly over two thousand more than the python, possibly due to differing realm strength!
After the twin kills, the Civilization Value surged upwards by more than forty-five thousand.
