Afraid.jpg-Can't Handle It, Can You?

Picking up this skill—"picking up" was its proper official name. Its nickname was Corpse Touching.

It was actually one skill. Qin Yang had always distinguished between the two because picking up targeted objects, refining and collecting the entire object.

Corpse Touching, meanwhile, targeted corpses. After using the skill, it would only lay the corpse to rest. Most of the things touched out were intangible Skill Books, though physical objects occasionally appeared.

In any case, Qin Yang had not touched out a physical object in a long time. Perhaps the stronger people he encountered became, the more they valued themselves, and carried no treasures worth more than their own abilities. More likely, whatever was touched out was connected to what the corpse had cared about and valued most while alive.

And most experts valued their own abilities, cultivation methods, secret arts, divine abilities, skills...

After all this time, Qin Yang had long summarized the general rule under normal circumstances.

A corpse, whether intact or incomplete—even if only a hand or foot remained—would trigger Corpse Touching, never picking up.

Anything that could be picked up and refined definitely was not a corpse.

Now, Yi Lou said that this statue was certainly one of Three Bodies Dao Lord's backup plans, and that it surely contained a part of Three Bodies Dao Lord. Yet Qin Yang could still pick it up and refine it.

That left only two possibilities.

First, Yi Lou had judged incorrectly. This was one of Three Bodies Dao Lord's backup plans, but it did not contain a part of Three Bodies Dao Lord.

That was why the statue had been judged an ownerless object.

If that was the case, it would be easier to handle. Even if he could not refine it, there were plenty of ways to deal with
