Volume 2: Entering the Ghost Feast by Mistake Section 115: Lantern Ghost Technique
"What's going on? How did you get the trick? Zhang Su looked at Pu Zitong's involuntary appearance and asked puzzledly.
"I don't know, I originally wanted to sneak attack it from behind, who knew that when I was about to attack it, my eyes suddenly turned white, and when I came to my senses, my body was no longer under my control." Pu Zitong said with a sad face.
"I saw it, your forehead flashed with a blue triangle pattern exactly the same as that bandaged ghast, it is estimated that you have also been hit by the lantern ghost's soul control technique, with the strength of your intermediate soul king, can't you resist?" Zhang Su looked at Pu Zitong's forehead and asked puzzledly.
"I can't do it, I tried to resist its control just now, but when I resisted, I felt like my soul was about to be broken by my own soul power, and I was afraid that my soul power would explode in my own soul." Pu Zitong explained.
"And what's going on? A beginner imp's soul control skill can actually control an intermediate soul king, what kind of ghost soul skill is this?! Zhang Su looked at Pu Zitong's painful expression, looked behind Pu Zitong, saw the lantern ghost looking at him as if he was playing, and asked angrily.
"Are you asking me? Haha, how could I tell you about my most secret soul skill, but I can tell you its name, my soul skill is called the Three Stone Fu, and it is impossible for any soul controlled by me to remove it by itself, even if the soul power is higher than me, I just rely on this housekeeping skill to climb to the current level of the little ghost little by little, and in the future, I will rely on this skill to ascend to the ghost king realm, you should be my stepping stone today. The lantern imp laughed.
"Fu?" Zhang Su heard that the lantern ghost's soul skill is called the three-stone rune, and he remembered the summer camp of the Xia family, when he fought against the summer camp, the summer camp used the talisman soul technique, the attack method of the talisman is the rune, there is a paper talisman, and there is also a soul talisman condensed by soul power, only the rune is imprinted on his own body or the enemy's body will have an effect, if Pu Zitong is really hit by the talisman, then the body must be pasted with a talisman, the lantern imp is a dead soul, it is impossible to use the talisman of the present world, so Pu Zitong must be some kind of soul talisman, It's just that this soul talisman will disappear after hitting the soul, and it is difficult for Zhang Su to find the exact location of the soul talisman from Pu Zitong's soul.
Just when Zhang Su was thinking about how to deal with it, the lantern ghost suddenly said to Pu Zitong with a strange yin and yang: "He is the soul master who came with you to hunt me, I sensed that he just eliminated my deputy, but fortunately, I have you now, you can help me solve him as my new assistant, by the way, don't forget to leave his soul for me to enjoy." ”
"I don't want it! I don't want it! Pu Zitong shook his head and shouted, but his soul involuntarily approached Zhang Su slowly, as if he was out of control.
Looking at Pu Zitong's unnatural movements, Zhang Su thought quickly, and he found that as long as the blue light triangle mark on Pu Zitong's forehead was shining, Pu Zitong seemed to have lost control of his soul, guessing that the sigil might block the transmission of the spiritual consciousness and soul signals of the controlled
effect, in order to seize the right to use the soul of the controlled, if that is the case, he only has two ways to rescue Pu Zitong, either find the opportunity to directly extinguish the lantern imp, and the rune control will naturally be lifted, or find a way to make the three-stone rune invalid, but what he is most worried about now is whether the three-stone rune can really be detonated by the controller, if it is true, the lantern imp is likely to detonate Pu Zitong's soul at a critical moment to protect himself, if the lantern imp chooses to abandon the guard, Then Pu Zitong is dead
"Okay, let's try it with this trick." Seeing that the distance between Pu Zitong and himself was shortening little by little, Zhang Su finally made up his mind, and he thought of a way to get the best of both worlds.
"Run, I don't want to hurt you." Pu Zitong saw that he walked towards Zhang Su uncontrollably, and there was a possibility of attacking at any time, so he shouted unwillingly.
"Hurt me? You think too highly of yourself, don't you keep saying that you are stronger than me? It just so happens that there is this opportunity today, let's fight it out, anyway, you have already landed, and the current situation is either you die or I die, it is better to do it happily, what do you say? Zhang Su's soul power was fully opened, and the soul power of the intermediate soul king level filled the entire old house, and the twelve white phosphorus arrows were all released, floating in front of him motionlessly, Zhang Su shook his neck twice, and his face was full of momentum.
"Are you crazy? I'm being controlled, I don't really want to fight you, and I don't want you to die, so you can find a way to help me get out of control. Pu Zitong said with an angry face.
"I'm not crazy, I've long wanted to have a real fight with you, didn't you make me a military advisor after we partnered? You, a general, are you still afraid that I will not succeed as a military advisor? Zhang Su asked with an eyebrow.
"Now is not the time to argue about this, save me, aren't you a military advisor? Strategist...... Oh, I see, you are ......" Pu Zitong heard Zhang Su mention the secret division of labor between the two in his words, and was about to go crazy, when suddenly as if he had thought of something, the corners of his mouth rose, and he wanted to say something.
Seeing Pu Zitong's happy face, Zhang Su knew that Pu Zitong understood his intentions, and when Pu Zitong was about to say his intentions, Zhang Su quickly interrupted: "Yes! I'm just not convinced, come on, see who is qualified to be the general of this combination, do you dare to come? ”
"Hmph, come on, who's afraid of whom, I've long seen that you're not pleasing to the eye, you, a fake military division who doesn't know how to arrange troops at all, if it weren't for your mistakes, how could I be controlled by this garbage ghost? I'm going to give you a good look today. Pu Zitong pretended to be angry.
Seeing that Zhang Su and Pu Zitong quarreled, the lantern ghost on the side blossomed, and what it wanted to see most was the picture of the two fighting, so that it didn't have to spend more energy to prevent the controller from resisting, so as not to be discovered that it controlled the soul technique.
"Little girl, I'll let you go first, you fight with him, I will reward you well if you win, I won't eat you just because you are a soul master, and I will promote you to my deputy, if one day you also want to devour the soul to improve your soul power."
I'll give you an arm and a half leg to eat, how about it? The lantern imp asked Pu Zitong.
"Is this my grudge against him about you? You quickly uncontrolled my soul, and I will fight him to the death. Pu Zitong turned his head and urged the lantern ghost.
"I'm still a quick-tempered person, okay, I'll let go of your soul, but don't forget, as long as I want, I can control your soul again at any time, don't play any tricks on me." The lantern imp warned, and then shook his palm at Pu Zitong, and the blue light triangle pattern on Pu Zitong's forehead gradually dimmed, and finally turned into a gray carving mark engraved on his head.
Zhang Su squinted at the gray carved seal, used his soul power to perceive the changes in the soul power in the triangular seal, and used the stele soul to make a detailed analysis of the perceived information, suddenly, Zhang Su had a flash of inspiration, he roughly understood the principle of the lantern ghost controlling the soul, and the next thing to do was to find a way to confirm the news again, so as to rescue Pu Zitong.
"Look at the move!" Zhang Su roared, surrounded by white phosphorus arrows around him, like a star firefly body, he turned his fists into fists with both hands, and once again used the Soul Technique, an arrow rushed forward, and his soul attacked Pu Zitong.
"Since you don't keep your hand, then I'm not welcome, Pu Ming Umbrella!" Pu Zitong condensed the Pu Ming umbrella, held the umbrella handle, waved the closed umbrella, and also attacked Zhang Su, and Zhang Su's fist was against each other, fighting each other's soul power.
"Don't worry, listen to me, that lantern imp uses a rune technique, the rune has been imprinted on your soul, once the rune is triggered, your soul will absorb the surrounding soul dust, it doesn't seem to have any control effect, you quickly tell me how you were hit, I can confirm my previous judgment." When Zhang Su was confronting Pu Zitong, he used his soul power to quickly transmit to Pu Zitong.
"I wanted to sneak attack from behind the lantern imp, trying to break it in one fell swoop, but when I was about to hit it with the Pu Ming umbrella, a dazzling white light suddenly released from the lantern-like belly of the imp, I felt that my eyes had become a white expanse, and my soul seemed to be wrapped in a pile of cotton wool, I kept breaking free, and when I came back to my senses again, I found myself standing in front of the lantern imp inexplicably, and my soul was no longer controlled by the spirit, probably like this." Pu Zitong said.
"Is there anything else strange about that? Don't you see how it imprints that sigil on your soul? Zhang Su asked.
"Not really, just at that moment, I felt that there was a blank space in front of me, and I couldn't see anyone around me clearly, let alone when my soul was imprinted with a sigil." Pu Zitong explained.
"Well, it seems to be a combination of the illusion technique and the rune technique, at that time, you were negligent because the attack was about to succeed, and you didn't keep your mind as clear as it should be, so you fell for the lantern imp's white light illusion technique, and then in the illusion technique, the lantern imp pasted the rune on your body, so you were hit, if that talisman
If the seal needs to be used with the support of the illusion technique, it means that there must be some flaw in the sigil technique, and there are only two possibilities, one is that it takes time to prepare, and the other is that it needs to be close to the soul of the person being cast. Zhang Su confronted Pu Zitong with soul power while analyzing.
"Do you have any solutions?" Pu Zitong asked anxiously.
"Tell me again how you felt when you resisted that sigil." Zhang Su didn't answer first, and continued to ask.
"Every time I resist the control of that sigil, I feel like my soul is about to explode, and the more I try to mobilize my soul power, the more uncomfortable I feel, and every time I resist to a certain point, I don't dare to continue, for fear that my soul will explode alive." Pu Zitong replied thoughtfully.
"Don't lower the release of soul power when you speak, be careful that the lantern imp sees the flaws, I already know it in my heart." Zhang Su nodded.
"So what do I do now?" Pu Zitong asked.
"It's very simple, just wait for a moment and stop, we don't have to fight anymore, you just run all your strength to break through that little ghost's sigil, don't care about any feelings in the process, I'll go directly to the lantern ghost to settle accounts." Zhang said.
"What do you mean? Aren't you afraid that my soul will burst open? Pu Zitong asked puzzled.
"No, the rune on your body is just a simple rune similar to the Xia family's self-enhancement talisman, which can temporarily gather the soul dust from the outside world and inject it into the body of the person who is enchanted, so as to enhance the strength of the person who is enchanted, this is what I perceive according to the surrounding environment and the changes in the soul power in your body, there will be no mistake, and your so-called explosion is just the illusion skill of the lantern ghost, and the illusion skill acts on your spiritual consciousness and interferes with the information feedback between the spirit and the soul, and under its interference, your feeling of increasing soul power is magnified dozens of times, because your soul will burst, it's actually just an illusion, so you understand. Zhang Su explained.
"That three-stone rune is just a temporary talisman to enhance soul power? And my explosion feels like it's coming from illusion? You're not wrong about that, are you? I can't believe that a little ghost can use a combination of soul skills like this, this brain circuit is too rebellious. Pu Zitong said in surprise.
"Actually, I didn't think so at first, just when I compared the bandage ghast I met just now with your situation, and found that only this possibility can explain the principle of your control, when the three-stone rune on the bandage ghast's head flickered, I felt that the soul power around it was surging towards its forehead, and the power of the moves it used temporarily was far greater than the limit of its own soul power, so it means that the three-stone rune has the effect of enhancing soul power, when I directly blasted away the soul power of the bandage ghast, I sensed a hint of the lantern imp's spiritual consciousness in the soul power of the bandage ghast's dissipation, apparently the lantern imp was injected into the bandage ghast's soul. Zhang Su explained the situation of the ghast with a bandage.
"What does this mean?" Pu Zitong asked.
"It's very simple, the soul power that the lantern imp injected into your soul is extremely small, and when it is controlled, it is only urged by spiritual sense
moves, there is no change in soul power, so how can it use a tiny soul power to control your powerful soul, then there is only one thing that can achieve this possibility, that is, this tiny soul power is only used to create illusions, and you are only hit by the illusion technique, not any control soul technique, the temporary soul increase three-stone talisman is just a trick to assist the illusion technique, which creates the illusion of soul power expansion. Zhang Su judged.
"This kind of scheming is really terrifying, which means that I actually didn't do anything, and I wasn't controlled, but I was just hit by a small blessing between the spiritual consciousness and the soul?" Pu Zitong said angrily.
"It's not that you haven't been controlled, didn't you just come to me involuntarily? That illusion can interfere with your psychic control, and even distort your psychic mind, so that you can't help yourself, which is also a common control method of illusion soul skills, and now you just need to endure that burst feeling and break through the shackles of that illusion technique, you can quickly regain your freedom. Zhang said.
"I see, I lost the bet, I'm having a treat at noon today, and I'll hand over that lantern imp to you, I'm going to go all out to break through the illusion it set on my soul, it's a disgusting skill." Pu Zitong responded with a distressed face.
"Don't worry, I've already made a move, even if you don't break through that little ghost's illusion skills, it's already a dead soul." Zhang said.
"You? Oh, I see, you're using that Eared Serpent Soul Technique again. Pu Zitong said suddenly.
"That's right, but I didn't know about your situation before, and I was afraid that your soul would burst and hurt, so I only released an ear snake as a test, and now the ear snake has entered its soul, and when it is injured inside its soul and loses consciousness, I can kill it in an instant." Zhang Su nodded.
"I'm ready." Seeing Zhang Su's confident appearance, Pu Zitong nodded in response.
"Can't you two change your moves? What's the point of fighting with a move there? Just when Zhang Su and Pu Zitong quickly formulated a combat policy, the lantern imp urged impatiently.
Hearing the urging of the lantern ghost, Zhang Su and Pu Zitong stopped each other's attacks at the same time, and looked at the lantern ghost together, with a cold sneer on his face, Pu Zitong stayed in place, and Zhang Su strode in the direction where the lantern ghost was.
"Stop him! Stab him from behind with the tip of your umbrella! Seeing Zhang Su rushing towards him past Pu Zitong, the lantern imp shouted in horror and ordered Pu Zitong to attack Zhang Su, urging it to "control the soul technique" again.
Although Pu Zitong felt his soul crack again, he didn't act at all, looking at the lantern ghost coldly, with a fierce murderous aura in his eyes.
"I asked you to block him, did you hear it, dare to disobey my orders, you are not afraid that I will let your soul explode, move quickly!" The lantern imp continued to shout loudly, causing the blue light triangle pattern on Pu Zitong's forehead to become as bright as day in an instant.
"You're really going to great lengths, a little distraction
After layers of disguise, I can actually deceive that powerful high-level ghast, and now I want to deceive other people, I can't help but want to praise you twice, to be honest, if you don't meet me today, you may really be able to rely on this method to cross the soul realm, but now you don't have a chance, ear snake, explode! Zhang Su kept approaching the lantern imp and said with a smile, and then raised his hand to detonate the ear snake that had sneaked into the lantern ghost's soul.
"I don't understand what you're talking about, ah! Why did my soul explode and what did you do to me? Just after Zhang Su detonated the ear snake, the lantern imp asked in fear.
"Nothing, can't you make someone else's soul burst? I use the same means as you. Zhang Su replied.
"No way, I can't blow up someone else's soul!" The lantern imp blurted out, and then denied in a panic, "No, no, I can detonate the soul of the girl behind you, if you don't want her to get hurt, you can quickly disappear from my eyes." ”
"Hmph, I can't come back from the leaky mouth, white phosphorus arrow, soul sealing nail!" Seeing the lantern ghost's panicked explanation, Zhang Su sneered, and then with a wave of his palm, twelve white phosphorus arrows pierced the sky with condensed soul power, and all of them shot into the lantern ghost's body in the blink of an eye, blocking all the actions of the lantern ghost, so that the lantern ghost's soul power continued to dissipate from the soul body, and after a while, the lantern ghost's soul power was completely gone.
Seeing that Pu Zitong was still breaking through the lantern ghost's illusion technique, Zhang Su quietly probed his soul hand to the soul of the lantern ghost, and burned the three-stone talisman soul technique and control illusion technique with the stele soul extension.
