I picked up skill fragments in the demon world

Chapter 74: New Skill: Ignore Level Soul Hook

Zhang Chen's eyes fell on the black skill on the ground, a cautious look appearing in his eyes.

He had never felt this way before. He hadn't even approached the skill, and was still a great distance away, yet he unexpectedly felt an ominous aura.

You should know that it wasn't as if he hadn't picked up skills before, but no matter what kind of skill it was, it only showed a difference in color. Now, like the bead in front of him, it emitted an ominous aura, making people feel frightened, as if a disaster was imminent. This was the first time.

But this was a new skill. Could he turn a blind eye to it?

"I wonder if the skill will bring any negative effects, or negative buffs!" Zhang Chen looked at the bead on the ground, standing in place and pondering.

For example, in a novel he had read in his previous life, "Eternal Undying Man," he possessed the skill to grab something across time and space, randomly taking other people's objects and putting them under his control? Would that invite karma from time and space? (The link to "Eternal Undying Man" is below).

Or, perhaps, activating the skill would increase his combat power by three ranks, but the price would be his life.

Zhang Chen looked at the black bead in front of him. He felt that this bead was probably similar, perhaps with some negative buff that might have a bad influence on him.

"Let's see what the skill is first. I can't just throw it away without even looking at it, right? What if it's some heaven-defying divine skill, a skill worth paying the price for?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Chen continued to walk forward a few steps, and then stepped forward to the skill: "I want to see what kind of skill it is that is so unique."

[New skill discovered: Soul Mark.]

[Do you want to pick it up?]

"Soul Mark? What is that? It seems to be a skill aimed at souls? Why does it emit such an evil aura?" Zhang Chen looked at the Soul Mark, a hint of surprise in his eyes. He was a little puzzled.

"Could it be that this Soul Mark has some taboos? Or is there a price to pay?"

Zhang Chen stood in place and carefully examined it for a while, but he couldn't detect any bad price for this skill. After a little pondering, he said, "Pick it up!"

There was no reason for him not to pick it up. If the side effects of the skill were too great, he simply wouldn't use it in the future. There was no reason to give it up.

You should know that this was the first time he had seen a black skill!

[Pickup successful]

[You have picked up a new skill - Soul Mark]

[Skill Overview: You can mark any soul. Once the mark is successful, no matter how far apart, or in infinite time and space, you can sense the location of the soul mark. At the same time, your coordinates will also be exposed, and the other party will also be able to detect your soul coordinates.]

[Note 1: Once the Soul Mark is successfully activated, it cannot be erased unless one party dies. (Can be in a hidden state. When the host locates the other party, the other party can naturally locate you as well. In the hidden state, as long as the host does not actively locate, neither party can detect each other)]

[Note 2: Supreme powerhouses cannot be offended. Please use this skill with caution. Once you offend a supreme powerhouse, you will surely die without a burial place]

Then, the next moment, the Golden Finger interface in front of Zhang Chen suddenly refreshed:

[Name: Zhang Chen]

[Skill 1 (Fourth Order): Light of the True God -\u003e Automatic Cruise (0/200000)]

[Skill 2 (Second Order): Dragon Qi (0/200000)]

[Skill 3 (First Order): Illusionary Blood Bat (0/1000000)]

[Skill 4 (Second Order): Water Control (0/100000)]

[Points: Eleven thousand six hundred and seventy-two]

"Unranked actually requires ten thousand points, are you kidding me!" Zhang Chen's eyes fell on the seventh skill, his scalp tingling, disbelief appearing in his eyes.

Are you kidding me? An unranked skill actually requires ten thousand skill upgrade points?

This was simply a huge joke!

Zhang Chen really wanted to ask, why? Why does an unranked skill require ten thousand points?

"Could it be that you, Golden Finger, saw that I still have ten thousand skill points and wanted to deliberately extort me, using up all my skill points?" Zhang Chen looked at his Golden Finger interface, a hint of suspicion appearing in his eyes.

His Light of the True God only needed five thousand points to upgrade from level two to level three. Why did this Soul Mark need so much?

But the more it was like this, the more curious Zhang Chen became. Why?

Because according to the skill rules, the more points a skill requires, the more powerful it becomes when upgraded.

Anyway, he still had eleven thousand six hundred and seventy-two skill points. It was useless to keep them, so he might as well upgrade this skill and see what surprises it had.

This skill looked like a method aimed at souls. If he could evolve a skill against fox spirits, he would make a fortune.

What's the use of keeping skill points? Upgrading the skill is the right thing to do. Keeping skill points is useless, so it's better to upgrade it directly and add it to the skill, perhaps finding a way to break the situation.

Zhang Chen's eyes fell on the seventh skill, and he secretly said in his heart: "Add points!"

As Zhang Chen's thoughts fell, the next moment, the seventh skill Golden Finger interface turned into snowflakes, and then countless snowflakes reorganized, directly starting to refresh again:

[Skill 7 (Unranked): Soul Mark (0/10000)] -\u003e [Skill 7 (First Order): Soul Hook Chain (0/1000000)]

[Skill Interpretation: As long as the soul is marked by your skill, on the day their lifespan reaches its limit, regardless of the other party's cultivation level, regardless of the distance in time and space, you can hook the other party's soul over.]

[Note 1: Can hook the souls of all those whose lifespan has reached its limit.]

[Note 2: Can hook all souls who use secret techniques to forcibly stay in the world and forcibly evade the laws of nature (those who use spirit medicine to extend their lives are not included)]

[Note 3: Please do not use this divine power lightly. You mark the other party, and the other party is also marking you. If the other party kills you before their lifespan arrives, alas!]

[Note 4: You may not have the ability to kill the other party after hooking their soul. Of course, the other party is locked by the chain and cannot do anything to you. After three days, the skill will fail, and the other party will be sent back to their body by the laws of nature. You can use the Soul Hook skill on the same soul once every seven days.]

Zhang Chen's eyes looked at the skills on the Golden Finger interface, his whole person's eyes filled with shock, his eyes filled with horror: "Isn't this skill too heaven-defying? As long as the other party's lifespan is up, after their soul is marked by me, I can directly hook the other party's soul over?"

Although hooking them over doesn't mean he can kill them, and once he marks the other party, he will be detected by the other party, but he can cooperate with others, right?

Especially for those old fogeys who defy fate, this skill is just too unfriendly!

A strong person with a physical body and a strong person without a physical body are simply two different existences.

Moreover, my skill, Light of the Gods, seems to be the nemesis of souls, right?

If I encounter some old fogeys in the future, I can cooperate with others. If I can't kill them, I can hook their souls over for various humanitarian destructions and tortures. It's simply a divine skill!

Of course, the danger is great, and the rewards are equally great.

However, the skill is a bit limited, only able to hook those old fogeys whose lifespan is about to end. This is the only flaw.

"If I kill the fox spirit's body, will it count as the fox spirit's lifespan being up?"

Zhang Chen looked at the fox spirit's body in his hand, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

"It's worth a try!" A cold light appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes.

"Perform a soul mark on it."

Zhang Chen activated the skill on the fox spirit's body in his hand.

【A body without a soul cannot be marked】

At this moment, his own skill gave a prompt.

"Can't it be marked if the soul is not in the body?"

Zhang Chen frowned, and understood the limitations of his seven skills. The fox spirit's soul had escaped and was not in the physical body, so even though it was the fox spirit's body, it could not be marked.

"When the fox spirit's soul arrives, I will mark the fox spirit's soul. Anyway, I'm about to fall out with the fox spirit, what am I afraid of? If I mark the fox spirit and the fox spirit doesn't react, then I'll just kill the fox spirit's body. When the time comes, I'll try to hook the fox spirit's soul over, and then use golden light to make a jar to seal the fox spirit up, and slowly wear it down with golden light."

Zhang Chen made up his mind, and his whole body felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.

He now had an idea of how to kill the fox spirit. When the fox spirit arrives, he will mark the fox spirit's soul, and then devour the blood in the fox spirit's body. When the fox spirit's body dies, he doesn't know if it will count as its lifespan being up.

Now that the True Dragon Destiny is on him, the fox spirit will not easily kill him, even if the other party is angry, there is nothing they can do.

He got a new skill and was about to experiment on the fox spirit to see how effective his skill was.

You must know that the fox spirit is a sixth-order, or even seventh-order powerhouse. Where can he find such a good experimental subject?

"If I hook the fox spirit's soul over, should I whip it day and night, or ask the fox spirit to warm my bed and fold the quilt, and steal things for me day and night? It would be best to empty the entire Pingbian Royal Mansion for me and kill all the people in the entire Pingbian Royal Mansion, so that I can vent the anger in my heart."

A sinister smile appeared in Zhang Chen's eyes, and then he put away the golden finger panel. His eyes looked at the tomb in front of him: "I don't know if there are any mechanisms to get out of this tomb. Moreover, this True Dragon Tomb is just an insignificant part of that Emperor Daughter's Tomb. The Emperor Daughter's Tomb is the real key to burying countless treasures. The True Dragon already has such heaven-defying skills dropping, and so many experience points falling, I don't know what incredible methods that Emperor Daughter possesses, and what skills can be dropped."

"That's not right either!"

Suddenly, Zhang Chen was stunned, and a key question appeared in his mind: "The True Dragon still shed blood, and the Dragon Soul's resentment did not disappear, so what about the Emperor Daughter?"

"The most important thing is that the Emperor Daughter's lifespan has long since ended. She should have died many years ago. If the other party has a remnant soul, wouldn't it be naturally restrained by me?"

Zhang Chen's breathing became rapid when he thought of this. He thought of a new use for the seven skills.

Use it to deal with his enemies? That's just too low. If he keeps looking for ancient god tombs and uses his skills to hook the remnant souls of those old fogeys, he is simply their natural nemesis!

Think about it, a group of people who have already died, their lifespan has long since ended, otherwise why would they bury themselves? If those old fogeys each have methods to prolong their lives, then wouldn't I be able to hook them all?

Not to mention those old fogeys, even the battle between the fox spirit and the True Dragon's obsession just now, if he had obtained the soul-hooking skill at that time, I'm afraid that the True Dragon's resentment would have been pulled out of the True Dragon's skeleton in one fell swoop.

Losing the True Dragon's skeleton as a reliance, what could the True Dragon's remnant soul rely on to fight with him?

"So the essence of my seven skills is not to kill enemies, not to deal with living people, but to deal with those old fogeys. Especially the older the old fogeys live, the more they are naturally restrained by me! I guarantee that I can hook them all! To others, the terrifying and world-destroying old fogeys are just younger brothers in my hands!" Zhang Chen's breathing became more and more rapid, and his eyes turned green.

"From today onwards, I, Zhang Chen, should change my name. I, Zhang Chen, will be known as the enemy of all ages! Known as the enemy of old antiques!" Zhang Chen held the fox spirit's body, his eyes full of joy.

This is the way to open his own skills!

"I just don't know if there are any old antiques in this world who have lived for so many years," Zhang Chen muttered to himself.

Zhang Chen inserted the long knife back into the scabbard, hung it on his waist, and then swept his eyes across the field, his mouth grinning: "Fox spirit, fox spirit, it's fine if you don't come, but if you come, I, your ancestor, will definitely give you a big surprise. I, Zhang Chen, your ancestor, am about to become invincible!"

After collecting the skill, Zhang Chen tied a few more layers of ropes to the fox spirit's body, held the night pearl in his hand, and carefully looked at the stone room in front of him again, hoping to find a few surprises.

"This is inside the True Dragon Tomb. The person who built the tomb in the first place had earth-shattering strength, and the gate he built was also extremely heavy. There are no mechanisms in this tomb. It seems that the great power would never have imagined that countless years later, an earthquake would break the copper walls and iron walls of the tomb, giving me and others a chance to enter the tomb."

"That divine person is so incredible in my eyes, but in the face of the power of heaven and earth, he is just an ant!"

Zhang Chen carefully thought about the structure and layout of the tomb that he had dreamed of in the past, a pensive look appeared in his eyes, his eyes filled with golden light, carefully observing every corner of the tomb, so as not to miss any clues, to see if he could find anything key.
