Douluo Continent: It Became Huo Yuhao's Golden Finger!

Chapter 5: Creating an Illusionist! A Decisive Strike!
Zhuge Lan didn't explain further, but instead brought up another matter.

"Xiao Yuhao, now that you have more luck points, let's make a deal."

"Brother Lan, if you need my help, I'll definitely do it for you!" Huo Yuhao said earnestly.

This is also his true thought.

Although he has only known Zhuge Lan and Tianmeng for a short time, the help they have given him is enough to change his fate against all odds!

In his simple life, only his mother could do this.

Therefore, whatever you ask for, you will be granted!

"Don't make it so dramatic, people who don't know better will think I'm about to possess someone else's body."

Zhuge Lan smiled and said—

"It's nothing much, it just consumes some luck points, and it's a kind of technique that can be used even if you manifest a soul."

"This way, Tianmeng and I can continue to improve, and if you encounter danger in the future, you can go out and assist in the battle."

"After all, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. If all your luck points are invested in you, your risk tolerance will be lower."

"No problem!" Huo Yuhao replied without hesitation. "We're a team. You don't need to ask me about the arrangements for luck points in the future. Just use them as you see fit, Brother Lan!"

This trust made Zhuge Lan feel slightly guilty.

—He already pocketed half the price difference, yet he still wants what Huo Yuhao left behind.
But he quickly returned to normal.

—They have a conscience, but not many.

Enable [Creation Permissions] and select a suitable enhancement method.

The first choice is ghost cultivation.

Unfortunately, even the first level costs a whopping 100 million luck points!

Also.

Ghost cultivators are not practicing true cultivation; they've already entered the system of the immortal cultivation world.

This fantastical sewer world is unworthy.

And vengeful spirits and malevolent spirits, which grow by relying on negative emotions, are prone to losing their minds.

There are very few things left that involve purely cultivating spiritual power and the soul.
A round of screening.
-
Requirements: Create the basic introductory technique for a first-level apprentice of a mentalist/illusionist in the Swallowed Stars, and have it accompanied by awakened mental power!

Cost: 10 million Luck Points!
To create or not to create?
Zhuge Lan bared his teeth.

So expensive?

But he wasn't satisfied with just making a system.

Bought!

He completely drained Huo Yuhao's resources, leaving himself with only 2 luck points.

Because this was created for himself, it did not condense into books, but directly affected his soul and began to transform it.

There was no excruciating pain; it was as soothing as soaking in a hot spring.

I don’t know how much time passed.

The moment Zhuge Lan woke up, she noticed something was wrong.

—One’s own mental power, or mental energy, can extend like tentacles, flexible and capable of impacting reality.

Object control!

The basic function of mental power is something even illusionists possess, though it doesn't have the same destructive power as a master illusionist.

Then there is "Illusionist: Apprentice Level 1 Fragment", which teaches how to use mental power to influence the enemy's thinking, perception, and judgment, causing them to hallucinate or have perceptual deviations.

However, the soul attack in the later chapters is not mentioned at all.

Zhuge Lan was already very satisfied with this.

Zhuge Lan tried to use his mental power to invade the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm in front of him, interfering with its thinking and creating illusions.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, a million-year-old soul beast, was born using mental power.

Naturally, he noticed Zhuge Lan's actions.

At first, it didn't care, thinking that this guy was just surfing in front of the sea god.

But his expression quickly changed!
Something is wrong!
How can this "spiritual power" be so condensed?

Its mental defenses are like a sieve, riddled with holes, allowing rampant invasion and even hallucinations.

I was greatly alarmed!

He hurriedly mobilized his mental energy to defend himself, and deliberately collided with Zhuge Lan's "mental energy". He discovered that his mental energy, which was of a million years quality, was dissolving the other party's "mental energy" at a ratio of 1:100!

"Holy shit!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm cursed, "What the hell! Get out of here right now!"

Zhuge Lan withdrew his mental power and burst into laughter. Awesome!
too strong!
He doesn't have much mental energy right now, probably only at the level of a level 15 Soul Master.

But the quality is too high!

The spiritual power of the million-year-old soul beast, the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, is worth a hundred times more to wear down.

What about the lower-level ones?
They will surely sweep through like a whirlwind!
Just then, Huo Yuhao and his group were fighting a thousand-year-old Soul-Devouring Vine outside.

This is a plant spirit beast that grows in the humus layer. With enough energy, it can grow explosively. Cutting off its vines will heal it in a few breaths, and its leaves can even harden into sharp blades!

Extremely difficult to deal with.

With the help of Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya, Bei Bei struggled to fight.

But the more intense this was, the more fervent Tang Ya's gaze became!

"They've only been around 1600 years, and they're already this strong!"

"Xiao Yuhao is right. My Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul has a strong urge; it must be my third spirit ring!"

"Teacher Xiaoya, don't worry. The Soul-Devouring Vine can't move. We can slowly deplete its soul power," Beibei reassured her.

Huo Yuhao was about to chime in.

“Let me do it,” Zhuge Lan said. “Do not resist my power.”

Huo Yuhao nodded almost imperceptibly.

next moment.

He sensed several "giant hands" bursting out of his spiritual world, heading straight for the wildly swirling Soul-Devouring Vine, plunging into it without causing it the slightest harm.

Just wondering.

But then the Soul-Devouring Vine suddenly paused, and then launched a fierce attack on the air to the side. The vine made a right-angle turn, tightly binding its own body, and gradually shrinking and squeezing it!
"What did you do, Brother Lan?" Huo Yuhao asked in surprise.

"It's just making it think that its true form is you," Zhuge Lan said calmly.

It was absolutely heavenly!

Even with the help of Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya, Bei Bei, a Soul Master with three rings, was unable to easily defeat the Soul Devouring Vine.

The illusionist himself broke the deadlock on the spot.

It's obvious at a glance which is better or worse.

"good chance!"

With a loud shout, Bei Bei's third and first spirit rings lit up.

Third Soul Skill: Thunderous Fury!
First Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon Claw!

The amplified blue-purple lightning condensed into a dragon claw several meters high, neatly severing the main vine of the Soul-Devouring Vine, leaving only the bare stem, which was paralyzed by the lightning and temporarily unable to regenerate.

"Xiaoya!"

"Coming!"

Tang Ya slid forward, pulled out the Zhuge Crossbow with both hands, and pulled the trigger, leaving a trail of black shadows flashing by.

The Soul-Devouring Vine was riddled with holes, and purple soul rings floated up.

"Yay!" Tang Ya exclaimed excitedly, "I'm starting to absorb the spirit ring! Bei Bei and Xiao Yuhao, please protect me!"

He sat cross-legged and immediately began absorbing the nutrients, eager to do so.

[Rewrite Tang Ya's fate, +5000 Luck Points!]

Zhuge Lan raised an eyebrow.

It seems that the Soul-Devouring Vine is indeed a good match for Tang Ya.

Beibei put away her martial spirit and caught her breath.

He casually asked, "Xiao Yuhao, was it you who caused the unusual behavior of the Soul-Devouring Vine just now?"

Huo Yuhao blinked, unsure how to answer.

He does have a first-level soul skill: Mental Interference.

But according to Tianmeng, at most it only disrupts the mind and causes the attack to deviate.

He can't do that kind of self-manipulation.

Moreover, he only has one spirit ring, which already has the functions of "spiritual detection and spiritual sharing".

One more.
Everyone knows there's something wrong here!
For a time,

Huo Yuhao was at a loss for words and could only scratch his head and chuckle awkwardly.
