People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

Xiao Ling took a deep breath, then closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and slowly released his soul perception to come into contact with the jade pendant.

When his soul perception touched the jade pendant, a weak but clear energy wave was transmitted back. This wave was like a tiny ripple, rippling in his sea of ​​consciousness.

Immediately, a ball of soul light appeared out of thin air in Xiao Ling's mind.

Xiao Ling did not hesitate too much, released his soul perception, and touched the soul light ball that had just appeared.

When the two came into contact, a stream of information penetrated into Xiao Ling's mind.

Reading the extra information in his mind, Xiao Ling couldn't help but blurt out: "Illusionary Dream Shadow."

After spending some time, Xiao Ling finished browsing through all the extra information in his mind.

Touching his brow, Xiao Ling shook his head and revealed a satisfied smile, "My luck today is really good. I didn't expect to be able to pick up a rare illusion-type fighting skill."

That’s right, Xiao Ling discovered an illusion-based fighting skill called “Phantom Dream and Spirit Shadow” from this jade pendant.

"Phantom Dream Shadow" is an extremely mysterious and powerful illusion fighting skill.

The way to perform it first requires the practitioner to concentrate, mobilize his own soul power, and trigger the magic by forming seals with both hands. During the process of forming seals, the soul power will form circles of faint light patterns around it.

The effect of this illusion fighting skill is divided into three levels. In the primary stage, it can make the opponent have a brief visual illusion, see some illusory scenes or objects, thereby distracting their attention and buying time for attack.

At the intermediate stage, one can directly invade the opponent's spiritual world, manipulate some of his perceptions, and cause him to deviate from his judgment of the surrounding environment, or even fall into a brief state of confusion and fear.

At the advanced stage, one can completely construct an illusory mental cage, trapping the opponent's consciousness inside, making it impossible for the opponent to distinguish between reality and illusion, and allowing the opponent to be manipulated by the caster.

However, the use of "Phantom Dream Shadow" also has certain limitations and risks.

It consumes a great deal of the practitioner's spiritual power. If one does not have enough spiritual power to perform it by force, he or she may fall into a coma.

Moreover, if the opponent's mental will is extremely strong or his soul cultivation is higher than that of the caster, the effect of the illusion may be greatly reduced, and he may even suffer backlash.

Touching his chin, Xiao Ling muttered to himself: "Although this fighting skill cannot cause strong lethality, its scope of application is very broad and has a lot of room for development."

For example, if you want to describe the appearance and shape of an object to others, you can visualize the image in your mind, so that you can communicate more effectively.

“If I can cultivate this illusion fighting skill to a high level, with my current spiritual realm soul, it is not impossible to control some Dou Zun strongmen who have not yet broken through to the spiritual realm soul.”

He shook his head and dispelled all the thoughts in his mind. Now that he had obtained such an illusion-based fighting skill, he would naturally start learning it as soon as possible.

Immediately, Xiao Ling formed a specific hand seal and began to practice over and over again.

The slowly rising moonlight shone through the window glass onto Xiao Ling's figure, as if the moon was afraid that he would catch a cold, so it covered him with a gauze dress woven by moonlight.

Chapter 124 Ya Fei

In the following few days, Xiao Ling devoted himself to the practice of the illusion-based fighting skill of Dream Shadow.

In the courtyard, Xiao Yixian stared at a kitten in front of her with a look of surprise on her face. She tentatively reached out to touch the kitten, but her palm went straight through its body surface.

Retracting her hand, Little Medical Fairy's eyes were filled with curiosity, and her gaze was fixed directly on Xiao Ling, "Your illusion fighting skills are truly extraordinary. If I hadn't touched it with my own hands, I would never have been able to tell that this kitten was created by an illusion."

Little Medical Fairy watched Xiao Ling perform such a magical illusion, and her heart was filled with emotion. She secretly marveled at Xiao Ling's extraordinary talent and unremitting efforts, which enabled him to master such an unfathomable fighting skill so quickly.

Yao Chen, who was not far away, stroked his beard gently, his eyes also full of surprise, "This illusion fighting skill is really outstanding. I haven't heard much about it when I was in Zhongzhou. It is similar to the legendary 'Nightmare Sky Fog'. Qing'er's Green Snake Three Flower Pupils also have similar effects."

Xiao Ling smiled faintly and waved his hand, "This fighting skill is still different from 'Nightmare Sky Mist'. It cannot control a large range of enemies. Its main function is to control a single target."

According to legend, the Demon Saint Jinglian cast the "Nightmare Sky Fog", causing millions of people in a city to experience hundreds of years in a fantasy world. When the fog dissipated, everyone was shocked to realize that the hundred years were nothing but a dream. This shows how terrifying the effect was.

"Dong dong dong..."

While a few people were chatting, there was a knock on the door of the courtyard.

Xiao Ling released his soul power slightly and knew the identity of the visitor. He raised his eyebrows slightly and waved his sleeves lightly, and the gate slowly opened to both sides.

Noticing someone coming, Yao Chen nodded slightly to Xiao Ling, and then floated into Qing Lin's training room.

"Master Xiao Ling, Miss Xiao Yixian, Ya Fei came uninvited, please forgive me~"

Along with the crisp sound of high heels stepping on the bluestone path, a soft and gentle whisper came into Xiao Ling's ears.

Turning his eyes to the direction where the sound came from, a woman appeared in Xiao Ling's sight.

The woman had a faint smile on her pretty face, with a hint of enchantment. She was wearing a bright red tight brocade robe, which was exquisitely made and perfectly outlined the woman's graceful curves. A pair of dazzling white long legs were revealed under the brocade robe, which made people feel a hot impulse in their hearts.

Her slender waist was tied with a silver belt, which highlighted her slender waist to the fullest. Her narrow and beautiful peach blossom eyes exuded a charming and enchanting aura all the time.

The visitor was Mitel Yafei. In the original novel, she was one of Xiao Yan's angel investors.

Just because Xiao Ling casually mentioned something about Ya Fei to Hai Bodong before, Hai Bodong transferred her back to the imperial capital from Wutan City and made her the chief auctioneer and manager of the Mitel Auction House in the imperial capital.

She often interacts with members of the Xiao family and can be considered a friend of Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling admired Ya Fei very much, but he lamented that she was born in the Douqi Continent, a world where strength is respected, and poured all her talents into business.

If Yafei was born on Earth, with her intelligence, wit, tact and ability to understand people's hearts, she would most likely shine in the business field.

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Ling's face, and he cast a questioning look at Ya Fei, "Haha, I'm free at the moment, you didn't disturb me. Miss Ya Fei, why did you come to see me today?"

Hearing Xiao Ling's question, Ya Fei's expression did not change. "Ya Fei came here this time to ask Master Xiao Ling to go to the Mitel family. The Grand Elder has already prepared the medicinal materials for three sets of Fuling Purple Pills. As for the reward, you have to choose it yourself."

Looking at the young man in front of her who changed the trajectory of her destiny, Yafei's heart was filled with gratitude.

If it weren't for Master Xiao Ling speaking well of her, she might have become a tool for the family's marriage alliance and unwillingly married Mu Zhan of the Mu family.

Hearing Ya Fei's narration, Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "The medicinal materials for Fuling Purple Pill are extremely difficult to find. How could Mr. Hai gather them all so quickly?"

"Haha, in order to find the medicinal materials for refining the Fuling Purple Pill, the Miter family spent a lot of manpower. Even the supreme elder went out in person and just returned not long ago." Ya Fei lightly covered her red lips and chuckled. Her voice was like a gurgling stream, low and soft, yet charming and affectionate.

After listening to Ya Fei's explanation, Xiao Ling nodded slightly, "No wonder he left the imperial capital before, it turns out he was planning to go out to look for medicine."

Xiao Ling turned around and looked at Xiao Yixian, and asked, "Xian'er, do you want to go to the Mittel family with me for a tour?"

The Little Medical Fairy pondered for a moment, then nodded, "I am also free at the moment, and I have never been to the Mittel Family, so I will accompany you this time to broaden your horizons."

After getting Xiao Yixian's reply, Xiao Ling immediately stood up from his seat and said, "Without further delay, Miss Yafei, we will set off for the Mittel family."

After saying that, Xiao Ling took a step without hesitation and walked slowly towards the outside of the courtyard. Seeing this, the Little Medical Fairy moved her lotus steps lightly and followed Xiao Ling gracefully.

Seeing Xiao Ling stand up, Ya Fei hurriedly said: "Master Xiao Ling, I have already prepared the carriage, please follow me."

Xiao Ling and Xiao Yixian boarded the carriage under the guidance of Ya Fei. The interior of the carriage was exquisitely and comfortably decorated, and the soft cushions made people relax physically and mentally.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and Ya Fei smiled and talked with Xiao Ling and Xiao Yixian.

Ya Fei's eyes moved and she cast her gaze towards Xiao Ling: "This time we went to the Mitel family, in addition to refining the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill, the alchemists in the family have also been looking forward to Master Xiao Ling for a long time, and they are eager to see the master's demeanor when he is refining the pill."

Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "Look if you want to, I don't mind."

Soon, the carriage slowly stopped in front of the gate of the Mittel family. Xiao Ling and others got off the carriage and saw a magnificent building standing in front of them, demonstrating the majesty and profound heritage of the Mittel family.

Ya Fei led the way, and Xiao Ling and Xiao Yixian followed closely behind. Entering the lobby, a white-haired but vigorous old man was sitting on the main seat. This man was the Grand Elder of the Mittel Family.

"Master Xiao Ling, I'm glad to see you here." Seeing Xiao Ling and others coming, Hai Bodong stood up from his seat and laughed heartily.

Xiao Ling also showed a kind smile, "Mr. Hai has been out looking for medicine recently, and it seems that he has made a lot of gains."

"Haha, I did come across some good medicinal herbs. Master Xiao Ling will choose them then."

After some greetings, Xiao Ling began to prepare for the alchemy. Accompanied by Ya Fei, Xiao Yixian visited various places of the Mittel family...

Chapter 125 Alchemy

Hai Bodong led Xiao Ling into the Mitel family's treasure house. He raised his hand and said with a smile, "Master Xiao Ling, this is where the Mitel family's most precious treasures are. You can take whatever you like. It will be regarded as the reward for refining the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill this time."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, then released his soul perception and began to investigate one by one.

Indeed, as the richest family in the Gama Empire, although the Mittel family's wealth is not as strong as that of the royal family, it has a wide variety of rare materials. Even the medicinal materials for refining the Huangji Pill can be pieced together into two sets.

Although Hai Bodong generously let Xiao Ling choose freely, Xiao Ling did not want to be greedy and only picked out some high-quality medicinal herbs.

After selecting the rewards, Hai Bodong handed Xiao Ling a storage ring and said, "Master Xiao Ling, this storage ring contains three medicinal materials for the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill. Although the elixir is not of a very high grade, its medicinal materials are indeed hard to find. The three Reincarnation Grasses were snatched by me from several fifth-level monsters when I went out."

"Haha, although it is quite difficult to find medicinal materials, the rewards after taking the elixir are also quite considerable."

Xiao Ling reached out to take the ring, released a wisp of soul power, and began to explore the situation inside. After confirming that the quantity of medicinal materials was sufficient, he nodded slightly.

"Haha, Master Xiao Ling is absolutely right. I wonder if we can refine this Purple Soul-Restoring Pill right now?" Hai Bodong rubbed his hands and looked at Xiao Ling hopefully.

It was really helpless. It was extremely difficult to recover the cultivation level that had been reduced due to being sealed for a long time. If there was no help from the Purple Pill of Restoring Soul, I would probably have to spend more than ten years to cultivate to the Five Stars of Douhuang again.

Xiao Ling smiled slightly, nodded to Hai Bodong, and said, "Mr. Hai, please relax. I will refine this Soul-Restoring Purple Pill for you later. This is not the first time we have worked together. Do you still not trust my efficiency?"

After a brief pause, Xiao Ling continued, "As for the alchemists of your family, if they want to watch me refine the Soul-Restoring Purple Pill, I have no objection as long as they don't interfere with my refining."

Hearing this, Hai Bodong's smile became even brighter, and he hurriedly said, "Okay, Master Xiao Ling, I have already arranged the alchemy room for you, please follow me."

After saying that, Hai Bodong took Xiao Ling into a spacious hall.

Inside the hall, all kinds of medicine-making instruments were arranged in an orderly manner. Xiao Ling nodded slightly with satisfaction, and then began to prepare to refine the Purple Pill of Restoring Soul.

Upon learning that Xiao Ling was about to start refining pills, several alchemists from the Mitre family came to the scene.

If a sixth-rank alchemist could learn some skills from refining pills himself, it would definitely be of great benefit to these alchemists who are only fourth-rank at most.

Xiao Ling took a quick glance and found that most of these people were in their twilight years, except for one middle-aged man, the old man he met at the Alchemist Guild Exchange last time.

After seeing Xiao Ling, everyone bowed and saluted to show their respect. Although Xiao Ling was young, in the field of alchemy, the most accomplished ones come first, and Xiao Ling deserves the respect of these people.

Xiao Ling smiled and nodded to everyone, indicating that they did not need to be so polite. His eyes swept over these alchemists, his expression calm and composed.

Hai Bodong smiled and said, "Master Xiao Ling, please get ready first. I will ask them to watch quietly on the side and will not disturb you."

Xiao Ling nodded slightly, and then walked to the center of the hall.

After moving the prepared medicine cauldron aside, Xiao Ling snapped his fingers, and a pure black medicine cauldron as big as a table suddenly appeared.

This black medicine cauldron is quite large, with a calm aura lingering around it. Lifelike flame totems are painted on the surface of the cauldron. When the cauldron slowly rotates, these flame totems look like real objects, and faint flame energy is faintly condensing around the cauldron.

This is the Black Demon Cauldron that Yao Chen lent to Xiao Ling for use.

With a light touch of the storage ring in his hand, a portion of medicinal materials for the Purple Pill of Restoring Soul fell onto the table beside him.

When everything was ready, Xiao Ling took a deep breath, waved his hands, and the strange fire instantly burned fiercely under the alchemy furnace.

Xiao Ling methodically put the herbs into the furnace one by one. His movements were skillful and precise, and each step seemed to have been tempered a thousand times.

Those alchemists held their breath and stared closely at Xiao Ling's every move, afraid of missing even the slightest move.

As the alchemy process progressed, the medicinal aroma emanating from the furnace became stronger and stronger. Xiao Ling's expression remained calm and every step was executed to perfection.

With Xiao Ling's current attainments in alchemy, refining this fifth-grade purple pill of restoration of soul can be done with ease and without any pressure.
