"Soul Suppressing Seal" and "Myriad Streams Return to Origin"

First, he naturally needed to buy a better detector for his true body.

As he clicked the screen.

Whoosh!

Detailed data on one detector after another appeared on the page.

Lian Luo carefully browsed through them. Although he now had 260 million points, he still could not afford those top-tier detectors. Many high-end detectors cost hundreds of billions or even trillions of points. He could only shake his head and skip past them.

In the end, he spent 120 million points to exchange for a detector suitable for a King-level Immortal. Its performance was significantly better than the one used by the Nine Li clone, and its detection range was likewise one billion kilometers!

This will do for now! Lian Luo thought as he placed the order. If I ever need to fight in areas frequented by King-level Immortals, I can always replace it then!

After buying the detector, Lian Luo had more than 140 million points remaining.

He then spent 14 million points to customize a G-class weapon for his true body—a pale red battle sword!

Next came secret techniques.

Before becoming Immortals, the powerhouses of the Swallowed Starry Sky universe were divided into warriors and Mental Masters, using genetic energy and spiritual power respectively.

But once they became Immortal Gods, their souls fused into every inch of their divine bodies. This distinction no longer existed. Whether they had been controllers or warriors before becoming Immortal, all Immortal Gods used Immortal Divine Power.

Of course, generally speaking, whatever Immortal Gods had excelled at before becoming Immortal was still the path they followed afterward. After all, whether one was a warrior or a Mental Master, one had to spend immense amounts of time and effort studying and creating secret techniques. Only by specializing in a single path could one go further.

Lian Luo's predecessor had been the same. Before becoming Immortal, he had been a warrior, and after becoming Immortal, he had continued down the warrior's path without diverting his attention toward studying the soul.

Now, Lian Luo thought the same way: he would specialize in the warrior's path!

But that did not mean he could not study the methods of Mental Masters!

I'll forget about soul attacks and long-range attacks, those methods used by Mental Masters! Lian Luo shook his head. He would not spend energy on such things. But I need to learn a soul defense secret technique and a soul enslavement secret technique!

He had clones, so he was not afraid of enemies killing him through material attacks.

But soul attacks worried him greatly. If a clone were destroyed at the soul level, his true body would die as well. Even more terrifying was soul enslavement. If one of his clones were soul-enslaved and became someone else's soul servant, he would be finished!

Therefore, a soul defense secret technique was something he absolutely had to learn!

As for a soul enslavement secret technique, it would not take much time to learn. He planned to study one as well, and perhaps control some Immortal soul servants along the way!

In the original work.

Because Xiloduo, the creator of "Seven Kills of the Beast God," had been a controller and a Soul Master himself, the soul defense secret technique Luo Feng cultivated was the accompanying technique from "Seven Kills of the Beast God," "Beast God's Roar."

But Star Prison Demon Lord had been a warrior and was not skilled in the path of the soul. The soul defense secret technique he cultivated had also been created by another powerhouse, so the "Star Prison Demonic Codex" did not contain an accompanying soul defense secret technique!

Lian Luo opened the "Secret Techniques" category in the treasure vault and set his search criteria. Instantly, more than a thousand entries for secret techniques appeared. Soul defense techniques were of critical importance. Before obtaining a soul defense heavy treasure or supreme treasure, this was practically his only means of defending against soul attacks!

His predecessor had spent an enormous fortune nurturing the Marquis Immortal plant lifeform, the Nine-Leaf Green Lotus, to help him resist soul attacks, so he could afford not to care about cultivating a soul defense secret technique.

But Lian Luo could not!

Exclude anything too expensive! But anything too weak won't do either! And I can't pick techniques with overly harsh cultivation requirements. Within those limits, I need to choose the best secret technique possible! Lian Luo slowly read through the descriptions.

Very soon, he found a soul defense secret technique suitable for himself.

Soul defense secret technique—"Soul Suppressing Seal"! Exchange price: 36 million points!

"Soul Suppressing Seal" was an extremely powerful soul defense secret technique. It had a total of five levels. According to its creator, mastering the first level allowed one to completely withstand the soul attacks of Marquis Immortals. Mastering the first four levels allowed one to ignore all soul attacks below the level of a Universe Venerable!

Mastering the fifth level would raise one's soul defense to the level of a Universe Venerable!

This one, then! Lian Luo chose to exchange for it without further hesitation. The Virtual Universe Company's treasure vault contained quite a few secret techniques stronger than "Soul Suppressing Seal," but their prices far exceeded the points he possessed.

Besides, he had little attainment in the path of the soul. He might not even be able to learn those overly profound secret techniques!

Now for a soul control secret technique! Lian Luo continued selecting, and eventually chose a soul control secret technique named "Myriad Streams Return to Origin."

The exchange price for the "Myriad Streams Return to Origin" secret technique was 10 million points, and it was divided into three levels!

First level: One Stream Realm.

Second level: Hundred Streams Realm.

Third level: Myriad Streams Realm.

The first level was the simplest. Ordinary Domain Lords and World Lords could easily cultivate it successfully. Once mastered, it allowed one to control one soul servant! The second level required one's soul amplitude to reach 100 before it could be mastered. Once mastered, it allowed one to control 100 soul servants. Generally, only Immortal Gods could master it.

The third level required one's soul amplitude to reach the universal limit of 10,000 before it could be mastered. Once mastered, its power was extremely terrifying, allowing one to control up to 10,000 soul servants.

You're the one! Lian Luo smiled as he chose to exchange for it.

"Soul Suppressing Seal" and "Myriad Streams Return to Origin" could be said to be the soul secret techniques most suitable for warriors like him. This was because both techniques were very simple to cultivate and did not require deep attainments in soul research. Their only strict requirement was divine body amplitude!

"Beast God's Roar," which Luo Feng cultivated in the original work, required one to first successfully cultivate "Seven Kills of the Beast God" and possess extremely high attainments in the soul before one could cultivate it. Moreover, one had to spend who knew how many years studying and pondering it before finally mastering it.

The "Myriad Hearts Soul Control" secret technique he cultivated was the same!

Even masters skilled in the path of the soul might not be able to master them!

The two secret techniques Lian Luo had chosen were much simpler. As long as his divine body amplitude reached the cultivation threshold, he could easily master them without spending much time!

Naturally, because of this, not only were these two secret techniques less powerful than "Beast God's Roar" and "Myriad Hearts Soul Control," but their exchange prices were also much higher!

Still, there was nothing he could do about that. His most important task now was studying the Space Law and entering the ranks of Universe Venerables as soon as possible. He had no time to divide his attention toward researching the path of the soul.

More than 80 million points left. I'll save them for now! After purchasing everything he needed, Lian Luo closed the screen in satisfaction.

Over these five thousand years, he had hunted twenty-one Marquis Immortals of other races and obtained quite a few treasures that restored divine bodies from them. In addition, whenever he was not fighting, he would draw divine power from the Origin Land.

His divine body had now recovered to its peak, and he still had quite a few treasures for restoring divine bodies on him.

There was no need to exchange for more such treasures!
