The fourth soul skill was—Soul Seed Puppet!
It condensed soul seeds that entered living bodies through blood or breath, then took root within their souls.
Previously,
Tang Lan could also manipulate the tiny barbs of the Life Spirit Blue Silver Emperor, using them as seeds to enter an enemy's body through wounds.
But because the "signal was weak," there was not much he could do with them.
And once he moved too far away, they would lose control and be expelled by the body.
But soul seeds were different!
They possessed the ability to "lie dormant," allowing them to bury themselves deep within the soul.
They devoured the Soul Power that naturally leaked out each day to maintain their vitality, making them almost impossible to detect.
They also offered far more room for manipulation.
For example, they could devour small amounts of Soul Power to slow the target's cultivation speed.
Or continuously devour Mental Power, leaving the target listless in the short term and stuck at a bottleneck for the long term, unable to break through.
Or endlessly devour life force, gradually weakening the body, reducing Soul Ring Age, and causing cellular vitality to decay.
But the most direct method of attack
was to make the soul seed explosively grow from within the body, directly piercing the enemy's internal organs before detonating!
After that whole sequence,
even a Titled Douluo could be killed if they were careless and failed to evade in time.
And with the Blue Silver Grass's special perception,
even if a target parasitized by a soul seed was at the opposite end of the continent, he could still sense the soul seed's approximate location.
They could neither run away nor fight back.
They could only become Tang Lan's puppets, at his mercy.
It truly lived up to
